the towering three-masted schooner which
had been towing it alongside. The schoon-

LII HUNo CHANG is the most notable,
eminent and respected person from any
oriental country who could, at this day,
visit the western world, and he is also,
probably, the least powerful and inau-
entail man of such considerable note
who could be sent to the occldent to
represent an empire. This extraordi-
nary combination is bothering Europe
not little. Ii talks business, suggests
contracts and engages bis nation to this
or that, always with the diplomacy OF
which he is master, and at. the same
time it is made known that he has no
power to do anything but report to the
Pekin government, who may Get eside
whatever Ii has done. In other words,
it would seem that the old Viceroy holds
such q position that neither he nor his

IT is true, as Mckinley says, that "re-
publican principles are such that they
can be submitted with safety and conf
dence to the intelligence OF the educated
men of the country" That has always
been one OF the party's sources Of
strength and success. In other words,
it is party that has always had logic
and wisdom on it's side, and that has
never catered to ignorance and folly for
the promotion of its interests. The man
who belongs to it is not obliged to resort
to any kind OF sophistry to justify his
position. He has sound reasons to give

vote is cast on the basis of the best facts

disposition OF the funds of the Nation
and in the making of its official Treas
ury reports. 1t lie clear that the state.
ment for the proceeding month, which
was the last month of the fiscal year
just closed, represented a willful dis.
tortion OF the facts. 1t was an ineffsc-
tusl attempt to make fair show at the
expense of truth.
The real condition of the Treasury
is fully disclosed by the simple fact
that the gold reserve, after the recent
contributions from the banks OF about
SO, ZOO, 600, was actually increased on
ly 100000. But for these contrlbu-
tions the reserve would stand today at
about Ss7, 100000. The governments
receipts Of every description during the
month amounted to s28,029, 2O6. Its
expenditures aggregated s42,OSS, 46S,
thus creating an increased deficit OF

This is doleful showing and illus
t-ates impressively the necessity for an
efficient administration OF the affairs OF
the Nation, such as the country will
enjoy under Mckinley.
