When the Rothschilds and . few other
gentlemen determined to demonetize sil-
YER in England they employed some OF
the brightest minds in that country to
write up the absolute necessity for sueh
q change. At least after they had &C
compIished their work they employed
them for several years to prove to the
people that what had been done was L
sctly right, the only proper thing. In
the meantime, the country went shrouzh
q depression which was something fright
full. Many people starved to death; q
or two incipient rebslIicns we're created
and the country never was restored &c
its normal condition until the great gold
fields of California and Australia had re-

England seems to assume that it has
some right to intervene between China
and Japan, perhaps because it's mer-
chants are largely interested in trade
with China. While there is no
desire on the part of the outlying world
to have China taken of the chart Of ma
tions. still there ought to be 9 desire on
the part Of civilized nations that Japan
shall be left to deal with China as seems
to her proper, SO long as the rules Of civ
ilized warfare are not violated. The
truth is, other nations have no more right
to intervene and rob japan of the fruits
Of her victory by its valorous armies won
than this country would have to inter
fere in . quarrel between England and
any country Of Continental Europe.
Even il japan demands territory, ii is
none Of anybody's concern outside Of
China. Every nation on the globe has
enriched itself by conquest, and why not
Japani There cannot be found one ma
| tion whose record entities it to object to
the complete conquest OF China by Japan.

The present depression in the United

1T Is PLUCK THAT WINS.

Now, young gentlemen, let me, for a
moment. address you touching your sue
cess in life; and hope the very brevity
Of my remarks will increase the chance
Of their making q Judgment in your
minds. Let me beg you, in the outset OF
your career, to dismiss from your minds
all idea Of succeeding by luck. There is
no more common thought among young
people than that foolish one that by-and.
by something will turn up by which they
will suddenly achieve fame or fortune.
No, young gentlemen; things don't turn
up in this world unless somebody turns
them up. Inertia is one OF the indis-
pensable laws Of matter, and things lie
fiat where they are until by some intelli'
gent spirit (for nothing but spirit makes
motion in this world) they are endowed
with activity and life. Do not dream
that some good luck is going to happen
to you and give you fortune. Luck 10 an
ignis fatuus. You may follow it to your
ruin, but not to success. The great Ma
poleop, who believed in his destiny, fol-
lowed it until be saw bis star go down in
the blacklist night, when the Old Guard
persisted around him, and Waterloo was
lost. A pound Of pluck is worth q ton
Of luck.
Young men talk of trusting to the spur
Of the occasion. That trust is vain. Oc-
casions cannot make spurs, young gentle.
men. II you expect to use them you
must buckle them to your own heels be-
fore you 20 into the fight. Any success
you may achieve is not worth the hav-

you win in life, you must conquer by
your OWN efforts, and then it is yours
part of yourself. James A. Garfield.
