THE BEST PROFESSION.
From the Washington Post.

From the Washington Post.
The supply of lawyers and doctors ia
always in excess OF the demand. II their
b1sines were equally divided all would be
poor. As 1t Is a few-a very small mi
nortty-get on well In life. while the ma
jorlty Of those who enter these professions
with high hopes are doomed to dlsappoint-
ment. Many OF them abandon their chos-
en- career and seek fortune in other fields.
thousands OF men who have been edu.
Gated for the law or the medical profess
sion are in trade. in railroadlng, and in the
insurance business, and many Of these are
successful. They did not fail in their
profession because of unfitnesss, but be.
cause OF lack of opportunity.
The demand for clergymen is in excess
OF the supply. The young minister on
graduating from the theological school
has no fight with poverty, no hard strug-
gle for his daily bread while trying to ret
foothold. He does not hang out his sign
and walt through years Of penury for
patrons. On the contrary he steps from
the seminary into pulpit, into an hon
ored profession and an assured subsistence.
He has degree of sympathy and respect
that does not come to the young lawyer
or doctor. The men and the women, the
old and the young of his congregation
take dengnt IN promoting his enjoyment.
The mere fact Of being a lawyer or q
doctor Is not In itself q passport TO the
best society. But the fact of being a
clergyman, Of occupying n pulpit. opens
every door In the parish. The young
minister Is q welcome guest at every fire.
side. and he is more likely to be surfelted
with kindness than to suffer from neglect.
All trings considered, the most inviting
field for the young men Of this country
to-day is the pulpit, and the fact that this
profession II not crowded Is due to the
consclentiousnes of our young men.
They have 80 high a respect for the sa-
cred calling, SO lofty an appreciation of
Its duties and responsibilities. that they
decline to enter 1t without n conviction
that duty lies In that directions belief
that by 80 doing they will be able TO do
more good IN the world than they can in
any other profession.

that he will not nominate until after

Charles +. Keck last night withdrew
from the race for the Republican NOM

reasons, but it is thought that he does
not wish to antagonize Mr.. Halsey,
who is also a resident of White Haven,
and who is after the nomination for
judge. OF course. 1t is impossible for
the nomination of both Judge and
sheriff, the two leading places on the
ticket. TO so TO a small place like White

New York, June 2a.-The Ward line

ports today. She brings s. passengers
from Santiago de Cuba. Among these are
several residents Of that city. who were
compelled 10 fee for safety owing 10 the
disturbed condition of affairs in that vi

confirmed by one OF the Santiago's passen-
gers. who stated that the expedition from
Florida succeeded in making safe land
ing on June 81
Gen. Campos is also reported as being in
a very bad position and greatly worried
over the light success of the regular
troops over the insurgents. II was also
reported that Cienfuegos was almost en-
tirely surrounded by the insurgents

said he possessed Greek cipher, by
means of which he communicated with

Jacksonville Citizen correspondent secur-
ed the cipher and asked Rev. Mr.. Humid

proved 10 be a Greek copy of a letter

Japan-China Industrial Developments.

North China Herald.
The new soap works at Shaukiwan are
now approaching completion, and the
building In course of construction for
feather-dreSsing works at kennedytown
is also advancing rapidly, and before long
both industries will be IN full swing.
Another addition In the industries of the
colony is about to be made at Kowloon,
where Messrs. Sander & Co, are about
10 erect glass works, TO be managed by
a japanese expert and Japanese work
men. 1t is generally regarded that these
are only the beginnings of industrial de-
velopfnent in China, which will no Doubt
receive a great impetus now that the war
is over. And though the Chinese do not
Yet seem TO have touched wooden goods.
we may add that there viii also probably
be a revival of shipments from ALanches-
ter of cotton spinning machinery for ports
on the great Yangtsekiang river. There
are five mills already working in this To-
cality, and others in course of compile
tion or construction which are estimated
to contain 10000 spindles. China grows
her own cotton, at any rate for the
coarser counts of yarns; indeed,
she ships the staple to Japan, which
country has lately made abnormal strides
in spinning and manufacturing. In
short period of time no less than fifty
nine cotton spinning and weaving mills
have sprung into existence in the neigh
borhood of Osaka and Kioto. with a
capital of $50, 200 600, entirely supplied by
the natives. They have now 770,S74 spin
dies, and in May last competent authori-
ties estimated the yearly output of thee

the attention of many people interested
in Lancashire in particular is: Is this

" to damage Lancashire tand, of course,
equally England as nation) or other
wise? For ourselves, we rather favor
the views OF those authorities who con-
tend that ii will be very many years be-
fore China. Japan, or, for the matter of
that, India, will be able to make the
finer kinds of yarns and textiles; that IL
Lancashire loses by the lessened produc-
ton of low or coarse goods. she must
divert her manufacturing hands" more
to the fine counts, textiles, etc, and
that, for many years at any rate, a pros
porous future would seem 10 be before
