THE CHILEAN WAR.

The Chilean civil war has ended with the
complete triumph of the CongTessionals
The instruction has become a revolution.
IL is hard 20 tell whether this result was
more to be desired than the opposite one.
South American republicanism in its best
aspects is a orTy burlesque Of popular Gov
eminent as understood in the northern
hemisphere. The revolutions are simply
the hungry outs" trying TO get the places
where the ins' are fattening. In the war
in Chile there has been more than usual
appeal 10 the public opinion Of the world.
Each side has striyen TO show that il was
really fighting for some principle. This is
very hopeful sign in South American
politics. II shows that the days Of buc-
cancer politics are passing away, and the
politicians there are beginning TO regard
public opinion. The world is more re-
ioiced that the war is over than at the
success Of either party. 1t has been inju-
rous in lis effect on trade. The general
commerce Of Chile is Of no great import
ance, but the vast nitrate deposits which
she took away from Peru are Of the highest
importance TO the world, and many indus
tries depend upon The supply being free and
regular. Everybody was therefore impatient
10 have the war brought TO a speedy con-
clusion by one side OF the other getting de-
cisiyely beaten. This has happened TO the
Balmacedists, who, thanks to their own ieal-
ousies and dissentions, have been beaten on
every field and forced TO unconditional sur
render. The usual disgraecful feature oil
South American revolutions is apparent
in this. Balmaccda had feathered his nest
well while in Office, and had a fortune in.
vested in London and Paris. lie and hi.
family slip out Of the country ut a con.
venient time, and will probably soon b,
heard OF living in luxury in some charming
European city.

there has been so few personal encounters.
But Lecturer McAllister and Editor Nc
Cune have actually come to blows over the
question whether McAllister sold out the
Alliance to Wall street, and whether he is

THE news that the planters in the Roa-
noke bottoms" Of North Carolina have
completed arrangements for the extensive
importation Of the Russian Jews as labOrers,
recalls the odd admixture Of peoples in the
settlement Of the State. There was the
usual substratum in all the " Plantations
established South by the English King south
Of the Potomac of the "decayed English
gentlemen generally bankrupt in both
character and puTse-and sent abroad across
the seas TO get rid of them; hopeless paupers
and cOnvicts also sent across the seas to
rid the realm Of their presence and burden"
Later came n vastly better element-per-
secuted Germans from Europe seeking a
home where they could worship God as
pleased them; Quakers who found little
peace for the sOles Of their feet in either Old
England or New England; scotch-Irish
Presbyterians Of the same type as those who
settled New Hampshire, and, finally, after
the hopes Of the Stuarts were crushed by the
bloody defeat at Culloden in 1916, thousands
of Highlanders and other Scotch, who had
sided with the Pretender, fed to the back
woods Of North Carolina to avoid persecu-
ton. A large immigration of Jews would
be a queer addition TO the mass, but it is
hardly likely that this will take place.
