EngIish Bravado.

LONDON, April 1.-THE st. James Ga
zette this afternoon, in commenting up
on the latest developments in the dis
pute between Great Britain and Nicara-
que, says: There is wonderful
ignorance of diplomacy on the part of
American journalists. Why should we
want to lombard Graytown? IfNicara-
que has been SO foolish as to refuse to
pay the indemnity, which, with the
knowledge of the United States, we de-
manded' we shall take such steps as the
American government was aware we
would at the time of asking. The Mon
roe doctrine has been doctrine for 81
years, and has not been acted upon yet.
When Great Britain has serious differ
ences to settle with the South American
republics it will not be prevented from
doing SO by anything but settled inter-
lnational laws

Imperial Edict Settles the
Terms of Peace.
CONFLICTING REPORTS ARE ENDED
just What Part of It WIN BE Retained
by JApan--sreCulationo ON the
Treaty In General.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE Chinese
imperial edict sent by the Associated
Press last night from Tien-Tsin is ac-
cepted among officials and diplomats
here as setting at rest the conflicting re-
ports as to the final terms. of peace.
The indemnity OF 200. 100000 taels is a
compromise. Japan first demanded
300, ,0O0, 900 taels, but at the solicitation
of Prince Ii, threw off 100,0OO,000. At
the Chinese legation it is stated the tael
varies in value, but the present value of
the customs or treasury tael, in which
undoubtedly the payment will be made,
is $3.50 in Mexican silver, or about 70
cents in gold. This would make the in
demnity equivalent to 100000, 900 in
Mexican silver, or $l50,000, 900 in gold.
The Mexican trade dollar is the current
coin of China and the basis of circulation,
so that belief is very strong, though in
formtion on the subject is lacking, that
the payment will be made in silver.
The edict that Japan is to occupy the
Lao Tung peninsula up to the 40th de-
Z gree of latitude, settles the important
point that she is to have the great for
tress Of Port Arthur and the immediate
surrounding territory, as. foreshadowed
in these dispatches. Lao Tung PENN
sula is a small point of land jutting
southwark into the Gulf of PesChi-Li,
: with Port Arthur at it's extreme point.
The 10th degree of latitude cuts across
the mainland where the little peninsula
broadens into the mainland of Man
churia. This lower peninsula has the
shape of a sword, and is known as the
Regents Sword.D The edict does not
state whether Japan gets the acquisition
permanently or until the indemnity is
paid. She has contended for having it
permanently. If the occupancy is tenn
porary it will give Japan military COM
mand over China as long as the occupa-
tion lasts.
The permanent occupancy of the is
land of Formosa was acceded.
The opening OF Peking and four new
ports marks the introduction of modern
methods into the interior of China.
Japan has gained the privilege of estab-
fishing cotton and other factories in
China, but it remains to be seen whether
Japanese capital will invest in these en-
terprises or Chinese will buy these
modern facilities. /.
The edict makes significant omission
as to the reported Japan China alliance,
offensive and defensive, which. if con-
summated,. would give the. "Orient to
Orientsls." Japanese and Chinese
officials in Washington have never cred.
tied the report of this alliance.

Whnt the Press Saws.

LONDON, April 1.-THE Paul Mail Ga
zette, commenting on the terms of peace
between China and Japan, as defined in
the imperial edict, says the conditions
are better than those mentioned in the
Times dispatch, and that the cession a.
Fnrmosa will surely displease England,
while the cession of Port Arthur will be
objected to by Russia. sour govern
ment," says the Gazette, "May safely
be depended upon to do nothing, how
ever, until other powers take action"
The st. James Gazette says if Japan
declines to be frightened Russia may
come to the conclusion that it is better
not to try force. Meanwhile, England
is benevolent and has no feeling of anger
toward Japan. The opening of factories
in China by Japan does not mean mo-
nopoly, as England could also open fac
tories if she chose.

DENVER, April 17.-Letters have been
received by ex-Congressman Sibley and
General Warner from Senator Jones of
Nevada, explaining that he was detained
at New York on account of heart uble,
resulting from an attack of grippe. In
his letter to General Warner the senator
says:
eff all silver delegates would bolt
from the republican convention when q
gold standard man is named, as all gold
delegates will surely bolt from the dem
ocratic convention if silver man is
named, we could not have more fortu-
nate situation created tor us. We
should then for the first time have
:air field and square issue. Silver del
egates to the republican convention
must be made by their constituents to
understand that it is absolutely essential
that they bolt. That would be their
only logical course, if they are sincere in.

A DIsGRAcEFUL HABIT.-lf some
OF the parents in Jasper were walk
ing the streets Of large city, and
should hear a small boy cursing and
swearing in ordinary conversation,
they would be greatly shocked. Yet
they don't seem to pay much at
tention to their own offsprings' vile
Language, and oaths uttered on the
streets Of Jasper. Why is this? II
is a disgrace to civilized parents and
the town, the way some small boys
are permitted tocurse and use God :
name in vain on the streets. Par
ents should be more strict before
the law takes hold Of some Of their
children for its violation in this re-
CARL.
Swearing Is extremely vulgar in
any one--but worse when coming
from mere children, and that ON
Sunday, too, when people are re.
turning from church.
