u m rue sett. The Survival, of the Fittest. WAYNESBORO. GA.. JULY 21, lCOO Richmond county boasts of being a famous place to cure asthma. All the news from China is hor rible; more than that, appallin'?. If tho British found the Boers un civilized what will they think ot the. Boxers. The revenge we are to get out o the Boxers “will be at a cost that will stagger humanity.” The Bs swarm wherever Britain turns. It is British against Boer." and Burghers and Boxers. Brunswick runs two good paperi- under one management—one morn ing the other an afternoon issue. Perhaps late trouble in the East made Germany hasten to recipro city with the McKinley high tarifi government. Lost in transit—Thomas Brack ett Reid’s letter of congratulation! to President McKinley.—Augusto Chronicle. Columbus, it is now proven bj Prof. Lombroso, to his own satis faction, was crazy. Columbus wat not consulted about it howeyer. Will somebody advertise In th< ten-cent column for informatioi relative to the Philippines ? Have they been lost in the shuffle? It is reported from all points that Georgia’s wheat crop this year will be large and corn crop immense. That is good news. Of course Mc Kinley did it. The Chinese minister at Wash ington takes it coolly. He is level headed in these awful hot days There is no use to worry over a lit tie thing like killing our man Con ger and all the other foreign min isters. We believe Li Hung Chang is i boxer In disguise notwithstandint his friendly protestations. We sai< once before that if he ever dangle* at a rope’s end it would be that i lie hung Chang. An enterprising gang of pick pockets attend ail of Roosevelt’.- speakings. But they don’t find an\ millionaires at hand to rob. Th last are busy somewhere else rob bing the poor by trusts. Great Britain and the Unite* States are teaching humanity tha it costs something to invade a coun try and try to overthrow a peoph on their own soil out of pure gree< for territory and gain. The blowing up the Maine cos Spain a billion of dollars or mort The killing of Conger along will other foreign ministers will cos China many billions if It has tha much to invest in a costly war. Perhaps if the foreign powers ba* not been too hasty in invadini China the ministers of the differen governments would have had i chance to leave in peace. This in vasion was done without any decla ration of war or any notice to tb< Chinese government. It was bat policy. McKinley’s speech of acceptar.c comes up, as Mr. Fadden would say “to delimit” in imperialism. We art to hold the Philippines for Keeps nt matter what it costs in blood ant money, and are to lord it over th island of Porto Rico till death. D you give in Mr. Hoar and eat crov still? WHAT ARE WE GOING CHINA. The Chinese to no with! About a week ago the store of A. P. I Wiggins was broken open and a tt ., -considerable amount of cash and a uiiuister iO the l nit-|j ot sma n articles taken, No clu* ed States seems to think all <h? I to the guilty parties. nu - „ , , Judge John L. Hopkins lament the loss of Judge Hillyer in-his re tiring from the water board in At lanta and asks, “why is it that sucl men are allowed to retire,” It simply because all over the countn North, South, East and West, littl greedy political dead beats art forcing all the best men from thi people’s service. Didn’t Quay open his eyes whei in one district in Pensylvania Ex Attorney General Palmer wouh not allow a cent to be paid in hi! honest campaign for congress be fore the primaries? No money anc not a political trick, and yet he bea the whole field of Republicans, Thi! is the last great miracle, oh saintly Hanna, The Georgia press folk had * great time at the Waldorf-Astorh in New York. It was not said how many five dollar Williams thest gay millionaires tipped the waiters, but the New York City dailies as sert that they gave them Dixie and the rebel yell. The waiters and th* lordly butler were much delighted at the strange aspect of a real “Hell broke loose in Georgia.” The New York Journal has a lot of insufferable rot about revenge on China. What kind of reveng* will it be that may cost the world a million or more of precious lives? Perhaps it may turn out that there is another side to the question. Why- do these “enterprising” news mon gers continue day after day to make fools of themselves"? We ask par don for propounding such an un- eolvable conundrum- Chinese in this country are eood ones and should not be massacre by our folks in retaliation for mur dered Americans. He states a faci not known to many people—cer tainly not to U3— lliat the Chinese in the IT S. came from the southern part of China, and that particul section Is not inimical to the ior eitrners in China. It is true, in the present trouble in China made against foreigners •he forces of Prince Tuan are from the northern part of China. How ever, it is very evident that when the prince and his followers have reached, the following of this called rebel has increased In fact lie forces of the government, which is supposed to be defending th white foreigners have deserted to 'he Boxers as soon as a chance ha been offered. From our standpoin all the good Chinamen are likt good Indians, Everybody know! where they are. There is no reaso however, that we should fall to aud murder ail the Chinese in the U. many of whom are peace ble citi zens and, it is supposed, assimilated in education and feeling The rebellion against foreigner* in China is not at all unreasonabl* when we stop long enough to reflect and put our people in the place the Chinese people. What would we do if, thinkiog our governmen as good as any and our religion bet ter than any on earth, should hav* thousands of meddling Budhist and Confucians flocking over here insisting that we change all of oui ancient laws and traditions fo theirs. Ot course it would be stop ped in the very lncipiency of sucl an undertaking. But we havebeei steadily opposed to allowing an discussion of the difference, assum ing always that we alone posses the truth, and that the Chines* were not entitled to be heard Reasonably looking at the situalioi it is, all in all, rather a vast under taking, this matter of changing 400,000,000 of people with a govern uaent and religion over 3.000 year old bodily into another of a radical ly different nature. But there nothing in the way of adventur that an Anglo-Saxon will not un lertake. The American first open ed the door to Chinese intercours*- The sharp Chinaman was not loot in perceiving a lot of fine picking in this country for him and he pro ceeded to flock over and besociabh What followed is well knowi He was more than a match for th American in everything where h was given free rein, He could liv oq less, and consequently could pu the price of everything down Cheap labor was his great playing card and at once he appalled th laboring man of this country. Ther was no way.to compete with fain and he threatened to overwhelm u with his millions. He originate* very early the couplet that is sup posed to describe him completely: •‘For ways that are dark And tricks that are vain The heathen Chinee is peculiar.” The Westerner coula’ut endur* him and the “open door” to Chim became a subject of abuse, and th Chinaman, the playful target fo the ever ready pocket gun of th California miner and frontiei American. A howl everywhere wentupfron the American laborer and at Jas it got into politics. Then the immi gration laws excluded further in flux of the plodding, irrepressibl Mongolian. Those that are her* stick closer than ticks to the countn which may or may not be the on* of their adoption. That they lov* China still is evident and their as similation is slow. There seems t* be a mental reservation alway present with him that he is liabh to return to his home and joss an\ hour. So the Chinese problem has loom ed up so suddenly that it ia start ling. It is so far reaching that statesmen do not venture on an at tempt to fathom the final outcome If Tuan is successful he may be a Napolean or an Alexander and Ja pan may fall under his million oi soldiers armed with modern imple ments of destruction. Then! what not! He could look across Behrine sea and behold all America spread out before him aud the hated Mon golian at last change the imp However, let us refraiu from mas sacreing the good ones (?) we have, anticipating trouble.
