This week the Springfield Reporter
presents the name of Hon. Adna
Brown as candidate for Lieutenant
governor from Windsor county. TO be
presented at the State Republican con-
yention.
Very little interest is shownby the
people at large over the next guberna-
torial campaign. What little eX-
preston we have heard has been in IA
vor of Col. Woodbury. as the Republi-
can nominee. He is strong with the
masses and will make phenomenal
showing at the polls. No mistake
will be made in his nomination.
Mortified News.
The rumor that Col. Franklin Fair
banks of st. Johnsbury will be candi-
date for lieutenant governor appears
TO be confirmed. lie has presented
memorial volume to the Grand Army
post of the town. Middlebury Reg
lister.
In view of the deadly, sepulchral
and oppressive silence on the lieuten-
ant ooyernorship question, who would
have thought that only short month
ago the whole east side was bristling
with candidates and submerged with
newspaper Observation-Disclosures Ca
zette.
A veteran thus writes to the Poult-
ney journal:
"For some months the State press
has. in general way, expressed a
preference as to who should be the
candidate for governor at the next
election. upon the Republican ticket,
although il is the expressed opln-
ion of majority Of the Republican
newspapers that Col. Urban AN ood-
bury of Burlington will be the noml-
nee OF the convention. Col. Wood
bury is a gentleman possessed Of eN-
cellent business qualities, thorough
gentleman. honest and intelligent, and
has had Il large experience IN public
affairs. lie carries an empty sleeve,
the result Of his services III behalf OF
his country during the Rebellion.
The friends Of Col. Woodbury. and
ex-Gov Page will be interested in an
expression by the Morrisville Citizen
on the governor question, which we
publish elsewhere.
This hearty endorsement OF Colonel
| Woodbury. by the Citizen is practical
IN the voice of Gov. Page, and the
prompt and manly act is Characters
tic Of him.
Both are broad-minded, public
| spirited Nermonters and, while the
canvass of 1892 developed considera-
bic bitterness. the course OF the primer
pals caused it all to disappear at the
closing of the convention, and Col.
Woodbury. and his friends gave hear
tv support to "Spunky Lamoille.
Carroll Page never forgets his friend,
and il has been an open secret Tor
months that Col. Woodbury. would
have his loyal support
Vermont never had better govern
or than Carroll ;. Page, and III
choosing Col. Woodbury. for the next
chief magistrate. the Green Mountain
State is sure Of one equally rs good.
Both are broad-minded. conscrva-
tive and successful business mcn.mueh
alike in many respects.
The Citizens words are timely and
will be appreciated by Col. Wood
bury's hosts of friends and admirers.
The sentiment seems to be general
that Col. Woodbury. is wanted for
the next governor.
And public sentiment is right

well equipped In all these respects. We
have a complete network of nrst-class
railways, by which troops can be carried
between the remotest points In the country
in five or six days, at the outside and be-
tween the great centers of population in as
many hours. 1t Is true that, in point of
numbers, we have no such standing army
as European countries think they must
nave. but We have an excellent organiza-
ton of that kind for it's size, we'll equipped
in every department, that would serve as
nucleus about which the National Guard
of the different states would quickly rally
and form at once as efficient force for
defence as any of the standing armies of
the old world. Our several state organiza-
tons are well drilled possess improved
arms of every kind. and, moreover, know
how to use them. In short, IL any other
power thinks she can serve this country
as Japan has been able to serve China, let
her try 1t If she wants to be Weakened out
Of her dream.
1t is surprising that so level-headed a
paper as the Sun should give place to such
nonsense
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1894-11-26

Considerable prominence is given by the
New York Sun to the observations of a
correspondent or reporter, who says:
II don't see how we would be any better
off than China is in case some well-equip-
ped. tirst-class power should start in TO
whip us. The size of the country does not
count for anything in the matter. one way
or the other Japan is fly speck compared
with China, but she has a modern army,
q modern navy and commanders of the
latest type. IL she were to turn her atten-
ton in the direction of America there is
no reason why she could not make her way
through this big country just as easily as
she has through China"
This is simple nonsense, for the reason
that there is no similarity in the case Of
China as compared with this country in
regard TO capacity for resisting foreign
invasion. China is without railways or or
binary roads, and Furthermore has no
horses or wagons for the transportation Of
military supplies, if she had the latter.
She has neither quartermaster nor a
commissary department. She Is without
military discipline, that term is under
stood in modern warfare. and. except on
her naval vessels, she is without modern
arms, while her so-called army Is without
knowledge as to how to use them IL they
were provided to her soldiers.
This country, on the other hand. Is pretty

The esteemed Starpaper has called a few

Assuming that the trustees of the Cor
coran Gallery of Art would cheerfully give
1t good position on its walls, 1t Is mani
fest that the very best thing the President
can do with Mr.. Watts much talked of

send it to that institution for safe keep

might not wholly conform to the exact

visits 1t every year. 1t maintains, also, a
school of art, whore instruction In drawing
and painting is given free of any tuition

OF It's accommodations. and to which a
work OF art like this would be not only a
source or pleas ure, but means Of instruc-
uon. In the Corcoran Gallery the paint

and enjoyed by the people of the United
states generally to a greater extent than

If The Stars original calculation was &C

the architect and the contractors 1t was

sort might possibly complete the structure

CHINA AND JAPAN.
War Thought to Be Almost Inevitable
Between the Two COuntries

War Thought to Be Almost Inevitable
Between the Two Countries.
SHANGHAI, July 24.-China continues
to make preparations to assert her al
legged rights in Corea, and from the
present indications it is judged that
war is Inevitable unless Japan recedes
from the position she has hitherto
maintained. Orders have been sent to
every Chinese province calling upon
each of them to furnish 10000 troops
to aid in the support of the govern
ment.
New YORK, July 23.-The causes Of
the present trouble over Corea are
thus enumerated in an interview in
London by Henry Norman, an English
man who has spent some time in that
country:
First of all comes q permanent lll-feeling
between Chinese and japanese, who have g
rooted dislike for one another. Second, their
mutual jealousy as the two great far eastern
powers. Third, there are Japan's vastly pre-
ponderant interests - population, shipping,
trade-tn Corea, against Chinas ancient
suzerainty and her modern political con-
troll of Corean affairs. Fourth, the
rebellion in Corea, threatening all foreigners,
including Japanese, stands for something, but
not 20 much; as has been made out, for Corean
rebellions arc not very serious affairs Fifth,
Japan is exasperated by the decoying of the
pro-Japanese-Corean rebel, kim-Ok-kyun,
from his refuge in Toxic aid his brutal
murder in Shanghai, winked at by the
Chinese government Sixth, Japan is
afraid. not without reason, that China is about
to settle her difficulties with Russia by allow
Ing the latter to occupy port on the east coast
of Corea. Finally both countries believe them
selves to possess powerful forces Of the
European kind. and are not sorry to have an
opportunity Of showing what they can do with
them. This IS much truer Of Japan than OF
China,
