Uniform rank, K. OIL.

The LIST regiment Of the Uniform Rank
Knights Of Labor, will be formed at Cleye-
land. The Cleveland delegate to the
knights Of Labor General Assembly in
1892 urged the establishment of a uniform
rank, but that body did not incorporate the
idea in the general plan Of the order. The
matter was left conditional, however, with
the district assemblies. The organization
of g. regiment of the Uniform Rank has
long been under way in Cleveland, and 40
members have signed In the city and many
more in the surrounding towns
What the uniform and styles, II any, will
be has not been decided on. The Cleveland
delegates to the next general assembly Of
the order, which meets at Rochester in
November, will urge that the Uniform
Rank be given constitutional place.

masts. rice beats, resembling the vessel
upon which Nelson was shot into immortal
fame. bringing the tribute rice from the

No Parties in China,

There are no parties In China. The
throne and It's occupant, whether man or
woman, are supreme. All are below, and
tremble at Its power man may be
conservative. but there is no conservative
party. He may be liberal or progressive,
but there is no liberal party. There are
no newspapers for the ma sses The Picking
Gazette, which is the oldest journal in the
world, is an official publication, which con-
tains nothing but such memorials, rescripts
and edcts as the government chooses to
make public to the official classes and lit
craft, and hence it is almost impossible to
establish liberal propaganda. New Ideas
are looked upon askance and travel but
slowly. An official of progressive views is
sure to be regarded with suspicion, how
ever powerful he may be. and the higher
the place he holds the more certain It is
that some one who would like to supersede
him will keep constantly on his track in
Of all this the viceroy has had his
triumphs. and not the least Of these was
the conversion of the late Tso Tsung
foreigners and foreign methods in every
thing. He was great scholar and also a
great general. Throughout a long and
useful career he was bold. resolute and
always a hero and favorlte with the con-
servatives. He had military talents of a
high order. used Knapp guns and improved
small arms. but would not employ the
western Darnarlans, 1oc whom he had a
fierce contempt. He was withal an honest
man, and most loyal subject, who thor
oughly believed in the Chinese system.
He died decade ago, full of years snd
honors, but before goirg over to the ma
jority addressed dying memoriaP' to the
throne in which he Indirectly bore the
highest testimony TO the superior wisdom
of his friend Ii Hung Chang, the great
Chinese exponent OF progress.
Ii Hung Chang and Grant.
Ii Hung Chang placed a wreath upon
Gordon's monument in London. He also
placed a wreath upon the grave of Grant
at Riverside Park. There was intimate
friendship between the viceroy and the
general. On his tour around the world the
