The Ida wells Crusade.

Gov. Northen is quoted as expressing
the belief that the efforts Ida Wells
has been making in Europe to create a
sentiment against the south on account of
the lynching of black men in the southern
states are inspired by capitalists who are
largely interested in the west. and who
are afraid that immigration will be di-
verified from that section to the south. If
lmmigra tion to the west should fall off
these capitalists would be heavy losers.
because the lands on which they have
loaned money, and other lands which they
own, would lose much of their market
value. The western boom must be kept
up TO enable these capitalists TO get their
money back. The movement in
the direction of the south which is assum-
ing large proportions alarms them, and
they are assisting Ida Wells to create the
belief In England and on the continent
that the south is not a section Of the coun-
try that immigrants would find sat.
isfactory
There may be a good deal OF truth in
this view Of Gov. Northen's. il is quite
evident that Ida Wells is being supplied
with money from some source, and il is
natural to suppose that those who are
supplying IL have other than a disinter.
ested motive in doing so.
They may meet with temporary success
The truth. however, will eventually pre-
vail There are comparatively few
lynchings IN the south, aud those that oc-
cur are for one crime crime for which
blacks are lynched as freely in the north

The War Cloud.

China and Japan have exchanged shots,
but there has as yet been no formal dec
laration of war And it is by no means
certain that there will be a declaration.
If left to themselves there is not much
doubt that the two nations would fight
until one or the other was practically ex-
hausted,. because there is a feeling of
great bitterness between them. What
the outcome would be, it is impossible to
predict with any degree of certainty.
China has about ten times the population
of Japan, and the Chinese are courageous
and tenacious. The Japanese, however,
are more advanced in the methods of
modern warfare and they would. it is be-
lieved, display the greater intelligence
in conducting a war. The two ma
tions are pretty evenly matched,
so far as their navies are con-
cerned, but China is immensely
superior in the matter of land forces.
The remarkable quickness with which
Japan has modified her forces, however,
has created a feeling in military circles
that her superior skill in military
matters would about Offset China's SUI
perior force.
But conflict will be prevented if dip
lomacy can prevent it. European inter
ests in both China and Japan would be
seriously injured by war, and extraordi-
nary efforts will be made to avert it.
If war should be declared England and
Russia might be drawn into it. Russia,
it is believed, would take sides with
Japan, because she would like to have one
of the many commodious harbors of
Corea. IF Japan were successful Russia
would likely get what she wants. She
would hardly obtain such a concession
| from China.
England's sympathies would probably
be with Japan, but hor interests would
| compel her to lend China a helping hand.
| England objects to the advances of Russia
| and France in the east, and China opposes
| their advances. Therefore, if it should
become necessary for England to take
sides, she would become the ally of China.
But if the diplomats are successful, there
will be no occasion for Russia and Eng
land TO take sides.

The Constitutional Amendments.


There are three proposed amendments
to the constitution to be voted on at the
state election. One of them provides for
two additional justices Of the supreme
court, one for the paying of pensions to
confederate veterans who, on account of
physical infrmities, are unable to earn
living, and one for changing the time
for beginning Of the sessions Of the legis-
lature from the first Wednesday in
November to the fourth Wednesday in
July.
There is no doubt that the first of these
amendments should be adopted. The
supreme court now has more work
than it can attend to and do it
well. That the number Of the su-
preme court Judges should be in
creased has long been admitted, and the
legislature hesitated much longer than it
should in submitting the question of in
creasing il to the people. Not only should
the number Of judges be increased but
there should be an increase in the judges
salaries.
OF the justice of the second amendment
there can be no doubt. The only question
TO be considered in connection with it is,
whether the number that would be enti-
tied to pensions, if the amendment should
be adopted, would be so great as to i'm
pose a heavier burden upon the people
than they could bear at this time.
The governor ought to be asked to
furnish some data, if it is possible 20 do
So as TO the number of veterans that
~,
pie are willing 10 do all they can to assist
disabled veterans, but they would like to
know approximately the amount of the
obligation they would assume by adopt
ing the proposed amendment
The other amendment-the one chang
ing the time Of the sessions of the legisla-
ture-ls intended to accommodate far
mers who may be elected to the legisla-
ture. In July and August they have
much more leisure than they have in the
fall when the crops are being harvested
1t will be adopted in all probability, and
it is to be regretted that it does not also
provide that there shall be only one
session of thirty or forty days every
two years. There is altogether too much
legislation. A great many local laws are
passed that are never enforced, and 9TH
ers that deal with subjects that should be
left to county commissioners and city
councils. About twice as much money is
spent on the legislature as there ought to
be. Not only in this but in all the other
states there is room for reform in respect
to the legislature. There is too much
legislation and too much time wasted in
law making-time for which the -taxpay-
ers have to pay.

His Goods Undervalued.

Elbridge T, Gerry New York protector of
infants, Is having good deal of trouble with
a fine house that he is building in that city.
says the New Orleans Ptcayune. Some time
ago work on the house was delayed by a
strike among the workmen, who refused to
handle the marble wainScot, which he had
imported from a road. alleging that he ought
to patronize home industries. Now he is in a
much more serious trouble. 1t is with the
custom house this tine which has seized a
large invoice of interior furnishings for the
house on the ground that it was greatly un-
dervalued. There were elaborate iron rail
ings, marble mantels, arches and caps for
pllasters, great deal of ornamental glass.
splendid brass candelabra door locks and
knobs, and many other things These things
were reported to the custom house as worth
$1,000, whereas IL is said that $40 600 would
not cover their value. OF course, it was the
builders, and not Mr.. Gerry, who made the
false report. but. all the same the goods will
be seized. and will have TO be bought from the
custom house after they have lain there a
year, or their duplicates Will have to be pro-
cured which will take about as long.

Henceforth the anarchist in France
will have to do his talking exclusively
through his hat. If he attempts to do it
through a newspaper, or through the
medium of other branches of the press, or
of the rostrum, he will find himself
brought up with round turn and hustled
off to prison, without the benefit Of trial by
jury. And it is the general opinion that
the judges will show anarchists little
mercy The anti-anarchist bill which, as
our dispatches told, has now passed both
houses of the French parliament, is one of
the most radical measures that could be
conceived of as the law of republic Not
only is the publishing of anarchistic full
limitations prohibited, but the newspapers
are forbidden to report the trials of an
archisJs.

The New York Press says there seems
TO be no longer any doubt that the
Louisiana Lottery Company is building
''Atalantis,' the great structure of iron
and cement that is to stand in the ocean
ten miles off the Long Island shore and
defy the elements. Tho MORNING News
has from time to time printed descrip-
tions of the unique venture, and has sug-
gested that the proposed great central
pavilion would be an ideal place for prize
fights or other prescribed sports" If
what the Press suggests is correct, it
seems likely that the American Monte
Carlo may be planted at New York s
door without the government being able
TO prevent it. For it is pretty certain
that if the lottery people have gone into
any such mammoth venture, they have
already secured the very best of legal ad-
