Measures For Their Protection
Belief In Heather Promises.

WASHINGTON, Aug l2.-Appre-
hension at the State and Navy De-
partments over the safety of Ameri-
can missionaries in China has been
greatly allayed through the receipt Of
several dispatches containing reassu
ring information, leading to the be-
lief among those officially concerned,
that the native outbreakes against the
foreigners have ceased, for the pres
ent, at least Minister Den5y has
secured promise of redress for out.
RACES in the past, and future protec.
ton of American missioaries; and
Rear Admiral Carpenter, command
ing the United States naval forces in
China. has taken action looking to the
relief Of the anxiety in the Chinese
seaports by providing adequate
means Of suppressing any further out.
breakes Several cablegrams relative
to the situation were received today
by Acting Secretary Adee, of the
State Departmnt, and Acting Secre-
tary McAdoo. of the Navy Depart
ment. Commander Newell, of the
cruiser Detroit, cab!ed fion Foo Chow
to-day on his way to the latter place,
the nearest port to the scene of the
late outrages at Kucheng and it's
vicinity. Admiral Carpenter :!so
cabled that he sailed to-day from Ma
gasaki for Chez Foo The guuboat
Machias, one of the smallest vessels
in the navy, WEIGH, by reason of her
lesser dranght, can do better service
in these waters than the greater
Baltimore, is not at Chee Foo, and
will probably go elsewhere on the
Baltimore's arrival. The other yes
sells of the Atlantic station are distrl-
buted in this way The Yorktown
at Shanghai, the Concord at Chemul-
90. Corea, the Petrol at Yokohama
and the Monocacy at Port Arthur.
The State Department has received a
reply from Minister Denby to the m
structions cabled him on the 7th inst.
relative to the reported lootlng OF
American missionary property at
Yungfuh, near Foo Chow Mr..
DENLY says he urgently represented
the facts to the Tsung-Li-Y amen, or
to the board of foreign affairs on the
10th, and obtained instant promise OF
protection and redress
Yungfuh is believed by the officers
Of the State Department to be the
same as Sungfub, Fuypak and lnshok,
mentioned in the press teiegramS. the
variations in the name being doubt
less due to erroneous TRANSMISSION
over the trans-Siberian cable, in the
course of which many tranScrlptons
aud repetitions are necessary.
The department has again to day
cabled Admiral Carpenter regarding
matters in China, advising him to
keep in close and constant commnnl-
cation with Minister DENLY.

rabid, ultra, radical Tillmanites, and
the more dangerous because consist

would, if they could. resist the temp
tatiops aud threats of the Ring caucus

of its beckonings. hehests or orders !:
They are strict, consistent. earnest
party men, who literally pulled the
ropes in 1890 and have been in har'
ness without wincing or kicking
ever since.
Now another picture: The negroes
have foolishly nominated two candi-
dates. Why not six ? Why do two
Reformers, pledged and nominated
by the so.called primary, withdraw
within two days after nomination
can it be for combine of the four
and two? 1t seems SO and this
seeming is confirmed by the rumors
that several keelites have said SO.
The negroes have appealed in vain to
Straightouts to make some sor. Of
combine. 1t is idle to talk about
running S,raightout ticket or
scratch off the three Reformers and
put on three Straightouts. If such
ticket could be elected it would be
"consummation devoutly to be
wished"-but it cannot be. The re-
suit would probably be to elect three
of the rab:d Keelites in place of the
three moderate Reformers on the
fusion ticket, which would be actual

Another, and tue last picture
The Straightouts have and control

the same number the Reformers will
bring to the 5usion ticket.

whole, are about equally divided

formers, or vote .faE three Straight

elect three of flis ticket in place OF
Messrs. Nash, Stackhouse and Nc
Kagen. And the negroes will be left
out, as even the Keelites will fool
them by scratching their names If
we give the Fusion Reformers
our votes,, they will neutralze the
negro votes for the four keelites and
defeat them. \ practical common
sense view has narrowed the issue to
the election of three rabid Ring Re

To the StraightoM Democrats Of Sun-

ing chat the time will soon come when

and believing, as we do, that it could
be elected by good, round majority !;
but even if this were doubtful. it was
the duty of the anti-Ring faction to
stand by their colors and fearlessly
make the effort
Still we are environed by political
conditions which, though not brought
about by us, we must calmly consider
and firmly act on, as we shall deem
for the best welfare of our beloved
State. now trodden in the dust. We

tasteful. This is his duty, "the
.sublimest word in the English land"

will be fearfully responsible.

Any attempt on the part of those
interested to secure the consolidation
of the Northern Pacific and Great
Northern railroads and have them op-
Grated by one management should be
stoutly resisted by the people of the
United States. It would make the
people residing along the lines of
those two roads and all others desir-
ing to travel over the systems serfs to
the high tariffs the consolidated sys-
tenn would surely adopt. No Federal
law was ever intended to allow such a
proposed gigantic monopoly and we
do not believe that Federal Judge
will ever clothe James J. Hill or any
one else with such powers.

SHORT TALK ON ADVERTISING

copyrighted by Charles Austin Bates)
Some way or other it always happens that
the judicious.. advertiser succeeds
| Judicious means many things.
things better never be advertised Men
who are not honest-who do not keep their
promises-whose advertisements mislead,
and whose stores Disappointing had bet
ter let advertising alone.
There is a man in New York furniture
dealer-who says that he never expects to
sell to the same man twice. He uses all
means to get the best of the deal the first
time. Makes all the profit he can on the one
SALE because he knows that the buyer will
never come back-that he will discover the
cheat.
Now, it wouldn pay that man to advertise,
and he knows it. and he doesn't advertise.
But fairly honest business, conducted by
a man who keeps pretty close to the letter
of truth, it will always pay to advertise.
Most business men are careless in their
statements. They have become so used to
| writing biggest" "grandest,' greatest "
best that they can only think in superla-
tives.
They mean to be honest-probably are.
They are merely careless, and failure is the
| price of carelessness advertising Maybe
not absolute failure, but something very
short of success.
Every advertisement should have careful
consideration. All the discrepancies should
| be eliminated-no careless statements al
| lowed
If you can't take time to attend to your
advertising carefully, better cut it down.
Cut off the parasites Cut off novelties-pro-
grams. Cut off the paper to whom you give
| a hundred just to get rid of ito keep it
quiet Cut off the paper that is too cheap
to be good,
good advertisement in good paper will
do more good-more in proportion to price
| than anything else you can do.
A good advertisement of good goods in a
good paper will always pay.
Always.

Populistic machine of the State. An
drew's heart is in the right place. He
loves his country and the stars and
stripes good deal more than he does
the principles of machinery of any po-
itical organization and he is always
ready to say so. A bold enunclator
of that belief can run for an honorable
Office without a party plank under
him. The love of country forms a
platform much broader than any yet
formed by political party catering to
the votes of unpatriotic citizens. Ig-

1t was not true sportsmansbip for
Lord Dunraven to act in the manner
he did on the third day race between
the Defender and Valkyrie. His yacht
was fairly beaten the first day, as he
admitted. On the second day his
yacht fouled the American yacht De-
fender, tearing its baby jib topsail.
Notwithstanding that fact the Defend
or merely raised it's foul flag and con-
tinued it's sail badly handicapped. It
only lost the race by 4S seconds, even
then. On account of the foul being
so palpable the committee asked the
owners of the contending yachts to
come to an understanding and have
the yachts sailed over again. Lord
Dunraven wanted the committee to
settle the matter and it did finally,
giving the race to the Defender. On
the third day Valkyrie pulled out of
the race Immediately after the start.

The organization of the Major Re-

the result of John Bulls invasion at
Corinto, Nicaragua, to which inva-
sion the Cleveland administration 81
lently gave it's assent. The new Re-
public consists of Nicaragua, Saliva
dor and Honduras. The three coun-
tries have learned that with a Cleve-
land administration in the United
States they cannot expect any help
from the strong Republic of America
and they have consequently decided
to organize for their own protection.

sion has been thrown to the winds by
Cleveland, he has allowed a British
administration to dictate our foreign

it. We give thanks that we have only
