FROn A CHINESE POINT OF VIEW.
A Chinese writer in one of th, publi
cations of his own country, and who had
visited the United States, sums up the
peculiarities of the American people,
and he finds that onr men are very queer
lot of fellows, and uothiug in them to
bo admired from the standpoint of a
Chinaman. He says:
" They live months without eating a
mouthful of rice; they eat bullocks and
sheep in enormous quantities ; they have
to bathe frequently ; the men dress all
alike, aud to judge from their appear
ance, they arc all coolies; neither are
they ever to be seen carrying a fan or
an umbrella, for they manifest their
ignorant contempt for these insignia of
a gentleman bv leaving them entirely
to women ; none of them have finger
nails more than an eighth of an inch
long; they never enjoy themselves by
sitting quietly on their ancestors’ graves,
but jump around and kick balls as it
paid to do it, aud they have no dignity,
for they may be found walking with
women.”
MR. GLADSTONE’S PROPHECY.
Mr. Gladstone, in his book, “Kin Be
yond the Seas,” which was printed
nearly twenty years ago, foreshadowed
the greatness of this country as follows:
"The United States has the natural
base ot the greatest continuous empire
that has ever been established by man,
and the distinction between a continu
ous empire and an empire severed and
dispersed over the sea is vitaL Amer
ica will probably become what we are
now—the head servaut in the great
household of the world, because her ser
vice will be the most aud the ablest; for
the growth in one century from 3,(»00,
000 to <>5,000,000 encourages the belief
that in 1000 America will have 500,000,-
000 of people."
There is good reason to believe the
grand old man spoke with the voice of a
prophet, aud it is to be hoped that some
of onr alleged statesmen will ponder
well what he said aud oppose the policy
of territorial acquisition. We already
have a vast undeveloped empire within
onr own borders, sufficient in its area
and resources to support a population of
hundreds of millions of people, and
when this fact is considered, certain it
is that we have no need to annex tlie
Philippine, Ladrone and Canary islands,
aud also Cuba aud Porto Rico, to main
tain possession of which it will be nec
essary to tax the people of the United
States many hundreds of millions of
dollars in order to support tremendous
military and naval establishments.
shown beyond all dispute that no other
nation can boast of such soldiers. Their
lighting at Santiago fullj^demonstrated
their high qualities as soldiers, and elic
ited praise from all tlie military critics
and experts of the world.
But the American volunteer was in
that fight also. He went, not so well-
drilled perhaps as the regular, but be
bad just as much American couxage aud
enthusiasm in him. And when the
figlit cam# on no one could tell where
the line of regulars left off and where
the line of volunteers began. The vol
unteer sustained himself admirably and
showed that lie can be counted upon as
safely as the regular.
JUDGE GOBER’S SUGGESTION.
There was a suggestion in the report
which Judge Gober, chairman of the
committee ou judicial administration,
made to the Bar Association of this
state at its meeting iu Atlanta on Thurs
day, to which the lawyers of the state
should give their attention at once. The
suggestion was that the Supreme Court's
system of deciding cases should be re
formed. He said that under the present
system the court, instead of deciding
principles decides individual cases, so
that every important case has to go to
the Supreme Court.
We are uot prepared to say whether
or not this suggestion is justified by the
facts. If it is, it would seem as if there
ought not to be any delay in bringing
about a change in the present system.
If principles were decided, litigants
would be saved the trouble and expense,
in many cases, of carrying their cases to
the Supreme Court, aud the court itself
would be relieved of much of the work
it now does. The court has been com
plaining for a long time that it is over
burdened with work. If what Judge
Gober says js correct, the court could
easily get rid of a very large percentage
of the work which is now thrust upon it.
Judge Gober was receutly defeated
for a place upon the Supreme bench. It
doesn’t follow, however, that the people
will uot take notice of reforms lie may
suggest for the improvement of the
court and the lessening of the cost of
litigation. If his suggestions are good
ones they will command attention, aud
the people will give him credit for them
but if they are simply intended to bring
him into political prominence tlie peo
ple will soon discover that fact.—Savan

OUR SUPERIOR WAR SHIPS.
Tlie Lioudou Mail lias investigated the
question, aud finds itself “compelled to
acknowledge the correctness of the
statement” that warships, armor aud
guns of the United States are superior
to those of any other nation. The find
ing may uot be a pleasant one for our
English brethren, but one must admire
the frankness of its acknowledgement.
The reason lies in the admitted super
iority of American inventiveness and
skill in the mechanical arts, comments
the Toledo Blade. Today wc lead the
world in the perfection of our manu
factures of iron aud steel, of onr ma
chinery of all kinds, including that for
steam propulsion and electrical produc
tion aud ntilization. We have always
been able to build swift hulls for vessels
of every class. Combine that with our
superiority in machinery building and
steel 'production, and the fact that
American warships lead the world is the
logical outcome.
The modern navy vessel is a hnge ma
chine shop enclosed in a steel hnll. Onr
machinery of every kind heads the list,
as can be seen by the steadily and rapid
ly increasing volume of its exports. The
testimony of the Mail is corroborated by
Russia and Japan, which, after close in
vestigation of the facilities and products
of other nations, have placed largo or
ders for armor and battleships with
American manufacturers. And we may
add that the superiority of American
guns has been fully demonstrated at
Manila and Santiago, over the best
products of European ordnance factories.
—Macon News,
not consistently say to European na
tions that they most keep off this conti
nent. The annexation of the Philippines
would be followed at an early date by
some European nation gaining a foot
hold iu Central or South America.
When such a movement came the hands
of the Usited States would be tied by
its policy of annexation and its aban
donment of the Monroe doctrine. There
fore, let the annexation fanatics count
the costs before they go so far that they
cannot retrace their steps. '"*•
The main strength cf the United
States as a nation is its compact form.
It is all in one lump. Its military pro-
t ict-ion on land is easy. Its wonderful
resources are not scattered. To annex
colonies iu every quarter of the world
will require strong standing armies,
much centralization of power, a depart
ure from the fundamental principles of
the government, and a marked advance
towards imperialism.
The democratic party should fight
squarely and vigorously against such a
movement. It is too late now to pre
vent the annexation of the Hawaiian
Islands, but the* movement may be
scotched for all the future. In the con
gressional elections this fall let the issue
be fonght with all vigor, aud let an an
ti-annexation majority control the next
House of Representatives.
THE BISHOPS SPEAKS.
The bishops of the Methodist Church,
South, have published a card in which
they say their church will not accept
the $288,000 allowed it by Congress on
the claim of its book concern, if the
Senate adopts a resolution to the effect
that it was induced to allow the claim
by misleading statements made by rep
resentatives of the chmroh.
It is not probable that the Senate will
adopt any such resolution. The report
of the committee which investigated the
charge that the allowance of the claim
bad been #btnined by misleading state
ments, states that no action the Senate
has taken refleets in the least on the
Methodist Church, South.
There is no doubt, however, that Mr.
Stahliuan did uot let the senators who
asked him about the claim know all the
facts, and the agents of the book concern
were far less frank than tlie senators
think they ought to have been. Still, if
Mr. Stohlman had been perfectly open
with inquiring senators aud the book
ageuts bad told the whole truth the
claim wouldn’t have been allowed not
withstanding the fact that it was a
perfectly just oue, and should have been
paid a quarter of a century ago.
While it is true that the book agents
cannot be defendod for letting senators
believe that no attorney’s fee was to be
paid out of the claim, tlie senators them
selves are chiefly to blame in the whole
matter, because they held up a just
claim for twenty-five years and made it
necessary in order to get it allowed to
pay an attorney 85 per cent of it.—

IN STONEWALL JACKSON'S WAY.
Oat of the smoke of battle, in which
the pride of Spain’s navy disappeared
before the iron hail sent from the guns
of the American fleet, there rises oue
figure that assumes commanding pro
portions.
The great gnus of the Texas had just
sent one of the fine Spanish cruisers to
her doom, aud as she slowly sank on ti e
beach, enveloped in flames and riddled
with shell, the orew of tlie Texas started
to raise a hearty American cheer. Just
at that moment Capt. John W. Philip,
commanding officer of the Texas, turned
to his men with the remark : "Don’t
cheer, boys, the poor devils are dying.”
There was a solemn hush as the crew
obeyed t-lie command of their captain
A short while thereafter, when the
battle bad ended and victory perched
upon tlie American flag serenely, Capt.
Philip called his men to the deck and
told them that he wished them to lift
their hats, bow their heads and give si
lent thanks to God for the almost blood
less victory. “For,” said Capt. Philip,
"I want to make public acknowledge
meat here that I believe iu God, the
Father aud Almighty.”
The words of Capt. Philip elevate him
in the estimation of the American peo
ple. He fights in Stonewall Jackson’s
way, with firm belief iu Almighty God.
UTTERLY UNDEMOCRATIC.
The annexation of the Hawaiian
Islands to the United Statcss constitutes
the first step to be fastened ou this coun
try by the Republican party. It is
fraught with danger aud it will require
but a few years to make the danger
perfectly apparent. It is utterly un
democratic aud is a menace to the
prosperity of the nation.
William J. Bryan warned the people
of the United States against this policy.
He asserted that this nation belittled* -
itself when it steps aside from the high
cause for which it is fighting to engage
in the business of land-grabbing.
Grover Cleveland snbsequenely took
high democratic ground when he came
out boldly against this annexation
policy.

preciated favor of the 22d instant, I am
delighted to be able to say that our i ?gi
meut is iu good condition. The men are
enjoying good health, seem to be in
gtol spirits, and respond promptly and
with alacrity to every call for duty,
whether it be police duty or drill.
The quarters established hero by
your association have, as I expected,
proved a perfect,Godsend to the men.
The tent serves as an assembly room
during their leisure hours, where the
men can meet for social intercourse,
aud also as a reading aud writing room,
where they can get reading matter and
writing materials and other facilities
for writing letters aud keeping np their
correspondence with the folks at home.
To those good people at home who de

their comfort aud well being, I will say
that by aiding you in carrying on this
work they will best aid the soldier boys.
I write only of tho material benefits
which yonr men derive from the quar

and well known that it needs no lauda

To Ask lor Peace.
Is Willing to Give Up Cuba and Pay
Any Reasonable Indemnity.
Madrid, July 12.—The possibility of peace with tho United States is

lands or an immense indemnity which would be impossible for Spain to

ON
TO PORTO RICO
IS NOW THE SCHEDDLE.
Troops Are Rushed To Port Tampa
And Will Soon Be Off.
Washington, July 12.—Orders are being sent out today from the depot
for troops and transports to hurry to Tampa preparatory to embarking to
Porto Rico.
General Corbin said this morning that the immune regiments would be
ordered to move to the front. "In fact,” he said, "almost immediately.”
The officials look upon the surrender of Santiago as a foregone conclusion
aud are eagerly preparing for the capture of Porto Rico.
There was a report in circulation here yesterday and is going the
rounds again today that the war board had changed its plans and now
contemplated the immediate invasion of the Havana province. The pres
ident considers that the independence of Cuba was insured by the decla
ration of war, that it being the issue of the war there cau he no peace
which does not include it. For this reason the force of the country is to
be directed against other territory.
Suggestions of peace fill the air this morning but it is impossible to run
any of the reports to earth. Secretary of State Day denies positively that
any peace overtures have been received by this government through any
source whatever.
In official circles this morning it was said that Spain had only one
chance now to save the Canaries, that one being to sue for peace before
Commodore Watson sailed. Once his fleet crosses the Atlantic it will not
return until the Canaries are held as a guarantee of the war indenmity.
DENMARK IS BRISTLING.
New York, July 12.—A special cablegram from St. Thomas, Danish
West Indies, to the Journal reports that the Danish authorities have in
formed United States Consul Van Horn that coal, of which tho United
States has 8,000 tons in the harbor of St. Thomas, is contraband of war,
and that its removal by the United States so long as this government is at
war with Spain will not be permitted.
Governor Ledermann informed the consul, according to the dispatch,
that any attempt to remove this coal would be risisted by the German,
French and Italian warships in the harbor and waters near by. j
Consul Van Horn is said to have referred the subject to the authorities
at Washington.
