of American Missionaries


/ New York, Sept. The American
Missionary society, represented by thlr-
~ ministers, headed by Rev F. F. Ell
lingwood, called upon Ii Hung Chang

dress, thanking bin for his interest in
the missionaries in China. The address
which is quite long. says that for fifty
years the missionaries of the American
| boards have been favored with the pro-
lection OF the Chinese government and
that in no nation of the world have
American missionaries received more
just and even generous treatment than
in China.
The address, after thanking Earl Ii
Tor q proclamation in behalf of the mis-
sionarie5 issued by him in 1891, says
tnat 1t is extremely gratifying to OBJ
serve that at the present time the dis
interested spirit of missionaries seems
TO be better understood and more ap-
pIeciated in China than ever before.
The address refers to work in behalf
OF Chinese in this country and saws
mat were Earl Ii to visit the Pacific
coast, he would see the homes and refu-
gees which, with the cooperation Of
the Chinese consul general, the Chris
tan women of that coast have provided
for unfortunate Chinese girls sold into
debased slavery"
The address closes with an expression
of satisfaction that the missionaries
have had an opportunity to thank his
e&celiency in person and hopes that he
may long be spared to life.
Ii Hung Chang responded by thank
ing the ministers for their kindly ex-
pressions, adding that his government
had only done its duty in protecting the
missionaries In conclusion he thank
ed the missionaries for their efforts to
stop opium smoking which he charac-
terlzed as curse and expressed mis-
gratitude for their prayers for his re-
coVery from the wound inflicted by his

WHAT ANARCHIST?
Just word about on phase of this
subject. 1 want to caution you against
putting your affairs IN the hands OF
foreign nations.
Let me read to you something's am
afraid l may offend some advocate of
the gold standard, but l am going to
read it even at a risk of offending him.
Let me read you something ana see if
you can guess VINO used the Ian
guage:
Against the insidious foreign infiu-
ence l conjure you, my friends. and
believe, my fellow citizens, the jeal-
ousy of a free people ought 70 y con-
stantly awake, since history and expe-
rience prove that foreign influence is
one of the most baneful foes of Repu6li
can government
What anarchist do you suppose
wrote that? What man do you suppose
desiring to excite your prejudice against
foreigners, would use that language?
What demagogue, appealing TO the pas
sions of the people, employed those
words? These are word used one hum
dred years ago on the 18th of this
month, by George Washington.
when we tell you TO beware of plac-
ing the Legislative control of our f1nan-
cial policy in the hands of foreigners,
they accuse us of trying to stir up hos
tility against those who live abroad.
They use all sorts of abusive names and
yet, sirs, we have never said, in all this
campaign, anything more emphatic
than the language used by the first
e
Father of his country
TREASURY PROTECTION.
yet 1T has been less than two years
since the secretary of the treasury en-
Ployed a London banker to protect the
treasury of the United States. And
more than that, they came to congress
with the proposition. in which this for
eign banker joined, offering the Ameri-
can people s16.00O,0 600 if they would
change the settled financial policy of the
United States. They offered to take
bonds at one price if they were payable
in coin; but said if they were made pay
a BILE in gold that they would take them
at a price that would save the govern
ment SIG, 900, 900 in three years: 1t meant
that If the government would do what Ii
had never done, If il would make its
bonds payable in gold that they would
pay the people of the United States sl6,-
900, 600.
This is no simple matter. When the
patriots of Greece We're warning the
people of that nation that Philip of
Macedon was approaching, there were
those who were so tied up in their bust
ness relations with the Macedonians
that they used hard names toward the
people who abused the Macedonians.
And there are those today whose COM
mercial and financial relations with the
financiers of London are such that they
apply abusive epithets to those who
warn the American people against a fl
nancial domination that is as severe, as
merciless and as pitiless as a political
domination
In conclusion, Mr.. Bryan urged his
hearers TO vote as conscience dictated.
At the end of his address, he was greet
ed by tremendous and prolonged APP
piause.

tone that Mrs. Often resented inwardly
as impudent.
The ride came TO an end and Mrs. Of
