There does not seem to be much danger
thst negro emigration from the South to
Africa will reach very Eerions proper
tions. Bishop Turner, Of Atlanta, Ga,
aud the African Methodist Church. have
been WORKING for years to induce such
emigration; now and then a shipload has
sailed for Liberia but the aggregate Of
these negro emlgrants seems to be but a
few thousand, and has been reduced by
the return Of a considerable number. The
negro is az unstable IN this matter of
emigration as in q good many other
things Thousands Of them have Joined
emigration associations. and have made
the hrst and some subsequent payments
towards the purchase Of passage to
Africa. and then got out Of the notion
OF going altogether, stopped making
payments, and forfeited money already
paid Swindlers have reaped rich harvests
by selling bogus tickets to Africa to
Southern negroes. and Bishop Turner's
company has made large profits from
forfeited partial payments for pas
sage to Liberia; but the net re-
suit Of all this waste Of negro money, in
actual emigrants, Is so far pitifully small

much better or greater is she than she
was before the phenomenal growth Of

Did He Holst the British Flag :

The prompt action OF Secretary Of
State Gresham In demanding an immedl.
etc apology from Spain for the insult to
our flag, of the coast Of Cuba, was gen
orally commended throughout the coun-
try. The President. who was absent at
the time on his duck shooting" excur-
sion. thought bic secretary had done just
right on his return and che whole coun-
try bid defiance to the Spaniards with a
vast deal Of satisfaction when they
thought Of that new navy Of ours

have been some mistake but was sure
his government would do the right thing

this they, as promptly, agreed to do as

from sOutherner while he and John

Kansas Honored at Chicago,

Topeka, Kas., Dec. 4.-The Kansas
people who returned today from the
Million Club meeting at Chicago are
enthusiastic over the reception they
received at the hands of the Lakeside
city. Burton is said to have made
splendid oratOrical effort and the re-
turned pilgrims are united in praising
him. But without a dissenting voice
the Kansas delegation are inveighing
against John ]. ingalls,, who failed to
keep his appointment and appear at
the meeting. The story that the ex-
senator was snowbOund is entirely
without foundation, a letter was re-
ceived from him by the managers of
the meeting, addressed from WiScOn-
sin town, in which he simply stated
that he could not be present and
would explain the reason later. This
letter was received On Sunday night.
The managers Of the club refuse to
believe that the ex-senator can give
any valid excuse. They say that ne
himself fixed The date of the meeting
on December 2, and that it hadcbeen
proposed to hold it two weeks earlier,
but was adjourned so as not to inter-
fere with any of his dates.
Speaking of the meeting today, Gov
ernOr Merrill said:
81 think the audaCity of the Kansas
fellows in going down to Chicago I'M
invited, and boarding the lion in his
den, made the affair a success. The
Chicago papers treated US splendidly.
The amount of advertising the state
of Kansas has received through the
Million Club movement couldn't have
been purchased for $4,000 in cash. l
am convinced that the meeting, or
rather the fact that Kansas developed
the energy and push necessary to get
up such an affair, has done US world
of good. 1t shows that we are push
ing, energetic and successful and
those who were not with us can have
no idea of the talk the affair created,
and all of it was creditable to our
state. Wherever one turned in Chi
cago on Monday and Tuesday he could
hear the word Kansas in every
mouth, and that was because the news
papers made so much of US. There is
no middle ground for such an enter
prise as this Million Club meeting.
1t must be either a failure or sue
cess. This was a perfect success and
now that it is safely over l feel great
ly relieved"
