LONDON. Aug 1S-The Times publishes q
report that China has declared war against
France and that the decks of the two hostile
fleets had been cleared for action.
1t is said that Admiral Courbet has ordered
1900 men from Tonquin, Gen. Millot sent
600 men with two batteries of artillery
ON Monday with sealed orders and
that 5000 Chinese troops have landed at
Hoihaw. Heavy masses of troops are sta
toned on the kwangsi frontier. The Chinese
have dispatched war orders to the Yiceroys
of the provinces. The officials pretend that
they are prepared for war, but, as a matter
of fact, the condition of the troops, the forts,
etc., is no better than it was last April.
LATER - In regard to the warlike
like reports from China, inquiries by re-
porters of the United Press failed to elicit
anything confirmatory of such state of af,
fairs. At the Chinese embassies at Paris
and in this city it was stated that nothing
which indicated that France and
China were on the eve of hos
tilities were received; that the latest
information at hand pointed to the probable
peaceful solution of the difficulty. English
government officials who would likely re-
ceive advance information of possible rup-
ture between France and China state that
they have received no news that an imme-
diate attack on Foo Chow was probable. ID.
Ferry, in an interview stated that the nego-
tiations were proceeding quietly, and in his
opinion would terminate peacefully.

the production of which has become firmly
established by ng-oontinued protection,
should be cut down till they bear just
relation to the difference between the
price of labor in foreign countries and in
this. The producer here should be
brought into close and natural competi-
ton with foreign as well as domestic pro-
ducers. Protective rates, which exceed
the clearly dscernible natural disadvan-
tages under which American producers
labor are fit subjects for reduction that
should be neither too sudden nor too dila-
tory. The existence of excessive rates,
besides being a gross injustice to con-
sumers, is destructive to enterprise and
progress in the industrial arts. In the
clash of close competition rival makers or
producers are put on their mettle, inven-
ton is stimulated and the cost of produc-
ton lesseued. If, on the contrary, an in
dustry is propped up by inordinate i'm
posts, ingenuity and business acumen
miss the powerful stimulus of push
ing competition, become enervated and
depend upon protection for their profits,
rather than upon skill and enterprise.
When the effects of the late revision can
be accurately measured as whole, repub.
licans, and doubtless most of the demo
Gratis who voted with them to kill the
Morrison monstrosity, will be found ready
for a further readjustment and further
lowering of tariff rates. Republicans are
in favor of tariff reform, intelligently con

THE editor of the Cleveland Leader,
Mr.. Edwin Cowles, was chosen as Blaine
delegate to Chicago. He now writes to
the New York Evening Post: " For whom
| shall vote 1 caunot say at present. l
shall vote for the man who, in my judg-
ment, can be most certain of carrying
New York" This change OF opinion
is another indication that the Blaine
freshet was at its highest some weeks
ago. Reports also indicate that the
magnetic " current in the Pennsylvania
delegation has been interrupted, and that
the solid Blaine delegation from that
state is going to pieces in consequence.
As Blaine's moon wanes, Edmund's
wakes. The greatest fear of the friends
of the latter has been the existence of a
very large and very stubborn Blaine mi
nority, which should make it possible to
repeat the outcome of the ballottings four
years ago.

but we apprehend that if the Judge, deeply
engrossed in his congressional duties, has
given any thought at all to Vermont poll
tics, the goverDorship has never occurred
TO him; and, furthermore, we surmise
that there is no influence that could per-
suade him to listen for moment to any
proposal to name him for that Office. We
are led by this connection to contrast
again the policy, or practice, of the state
in respect of its congressional delegation
aud its domestic administration. Yer
mont sends her best craftsmanship to
Washington, but it is of far greater con-
sequence to her to have IN the chief ex-
ecutive Office of the state man like those
she chooses for her congressman. The
brilliancy or eminence of the senator or
representative may crafty state pride,
but state pride is very unsatisfactory
offset for the progress, the substantial
benefits that should accrue to the state
from applying to the governorship the
policy, the custom, that prevails In the
treatment of the congressional Offices.
We repeat what we have said many times
of this branch of state policy, that, if the
employment in the Office of governor of
the best business and executive talent the
state affords, implies an increase of salary
and an extension of the tenure of the
Office, we know of no good reason why
these deductions should not be accepted
by the people, with the full assurance
that, though some personal aspirations
might be disappointed, the general well
fare would be advanced immeasureably.
A niggardly one thousand dollars year
and dead certainty of being superseded
at the end of one term, is paying high
premium on mediocrity. 1t is, besides, a
direct notice to men of brains and enter
prise to stick to their professions or their
own private business.

A False Alarm.

That Satan finds some mischief still
for idle hands to do " has been exempli-
fed in more ways than one in the columns
of some of our esteemed contemporaries,
and particularly in the Argus and Patriot.
In late issue of the latter journal. in
default of anything else to employ its
vagrant wits, it utilized a member of its
staff to write letter containing among
score, more or less, of other canards, one
to the effect that THE Waterman enter
tanned the purpose of bringing out Judge
Poland as a candidate for governor. If
one felt obliged to deny or refute all the
silly yarns our busy contem porary devel-
ops from a depraved "inner conscious
ness" life would be too short for any use
full ends. An attempt was made to bolster
up the Poland.governorship invention of
its staff correspondent by open editorial
comment. The effort was very much like
the fellows attempt to lift himself over a
fence by tugging at his boot straps. Still
some of our credulous and simple-minded
contemporaries, like the Barton Monitor,
eagerly caught at the Argus transparent
fraud. We certainly have never enter
tanned the idea, under any circumstances,
of bringing Judge Poland forward for the
governorship, and know of no one who
has. We only wish that it were possible
or at all probable, that some one having q

IT is argued with considerable force by
some of our exchanges that Colonel Pin
gree, having consented to the use of his
name as candidate for governor, when a
principle was at stake, and when success
was more than doubtful, should now be
given an unobstructed course through the
nominating convention. We have had
opportunities for knowing something of
the position Colonel Pingree has taken,
and still holds, in the pending state can
vass. Though we have never been &C.
counted his champion, it has been our
pleasure to testify to the manly and hon.
orable course he has pursued in this mat
ter of the governorship. We believe he
has been entirely unselfish and quite in
different to his personal fortunes, polit-
ically-more than content if the issue of
the canvass should leave him in the I'M
disturbed possession of his personal free
dom and at liberty to attend to his own
affairs. He modestly and frankly tells
his friends that there are other and ADLER
men for the Office OF governor, and it will
be no disappointment to himself if some
one else is chosen. He is very much averse
to cut and dried politics. He believes
in the salutary effects of honorable rivalry.
He delights in spirited canvass and
hopes that the contest for the governor
ship and all the state offices will be kept
up in lively manner. A man who
shows so much good sense must have
some good timber for governor in him.
Colonel Pingree improves on acquaint.
ance,-and acquaintance is sometimes
fatal to favorable impressions. If it were
simply question of honoring man who
is brave, and sensible and mo dest, and who
has, withal, good staying qualities Of
mind, the canvass for governor, in spite
of Colonel Pingree himself, might "settle
down and the nomination become hence.
forth foregone conclusion. If, however
the best interests and pressing needs Of
the state are considered we must still hold
as we held at the beginning of this can
vass, that the governorship is greater thar
either Nichols or Pingree," and we mus
still plead that the canvass be kept open
that the convention consider the question
of candidates for all the offices from {
strictly business point of view, and il
every instance, GET THE BEST.
