Bryan Reads IL RIaht.

Just what there was in the elections Of
this November 8 in the wav of effect ON the
great first question of American politics to-
day, is interpreted by William J. Bryan in
terms so clear and with judgement SO
broad and fair that no one is likely to try
to controvert him with any pretense of
arguments.
Thisis Mr.. Bryan's first public expression
on politics since he enlisted in the war
and it is reporter of hostile paper (the
N. Y. World to whom he frankly makes
answers as follow:
awhile do not understand that service
in the volunteer army prevents soldier
from having and expressing opinions upon
political questions, declined to take part
in the late campaign, lest I should be aecus-
ed by partisan opponents of attempting to
embarrass the Administration. Now that
the election is over, / shall exercise the citi-
zen's privilege of discussing the returns.
Compared with the election of 1896, the
Republicans have gained in some places
and lost in others It was not sweeping
Republican victory. On the whole, the re-
suit is not surprising, when it is remem-
bered that the Administration is just con-
GLIDING successful war.
"While a majority OF the soldiers are
possibly anti Republican, the management
of the war has been entirely in the Repub-
lican hands, and the strongest argument
used during this political campaign was
that Republican defeat would discredit
the President in the eyes of foreign nations
while his Peace Commissioners were en-
gagged in making treaty.
sit was not trial upon the issues now
before the people, but successful plea for
q continuance of the case.
The people have not accepted the gold
standard they have not fallen in love with
the plan to give the banks monopoly of
the issue of paper money; they have not
decided to retire the greenbacks; they have
not surrendered to the trusts.
"These questions were forced into the
background by the declaration of war, but
they must be faced again as soon as peace
is restored.
"The Chicago platform presents for pub
lie consideration certain vital economic
questions. That platform has not been
abandoned by these who Endorsed it in 1893;
it will be reafirmed in 1900, because it
gives expression to the hope and.aspirations
of large majority of the party"

in President q

Midway in President Cleyeland's first
term, in 1886, the people returned an Adj
ministration majority of eleven in the
House, and he was beaten by Benjamin
Harrison two years later. Republican or
gans stating that the precedent of returning
hostile Congress midway in Presidents
term has not till now been broken since the
civil war, has evidently forgotten this
quiet recent occurrence. The parallel isan
ominous one for the powers that be.

At State Convention of Indiana bank
ers last week the President of an Indian
apolis financial institution rose grandiy
to the possibilities of territorial expansion
when he exclaimed that "there are 400,-
100000 Chinese, and every mothers son OF
them ought to have folding bed and a
bicycle, and Indiana is the State to fur
nish them" The Philippine Islands will
not long satisfy the annexation appetite of
such patriots.

fire occurred here at O'Clock this after

struction Of Hotel Roanoke, one of the
chain Of hotels erected by the Norfolk and

Rod Of 1883.
The fire started in the bakery from a
defective fue and spread with marvellous
rapidly, ana in less than fifteen minutes
the entire building was a mass of flames,
which The fire department was powerless
to check.
The hotel which was a large structure.
Queen Anne style, was built almost en-
tirely of wood, and being situated on an
elevation, the firemen had great difficulty
in getting sufficient water power to fight
the fire
Nearly everything OF value was saved
by the heroic efforts OF hundreds of citl-

TO GET AT VITAL STATISTICS.
Proposed Law Requiring Doctors
and Midwives to Register With

Proposed Law Requiring Doctors
and Midwives to Register With
Health officer.
An ordinance has been drawn, and may
be introduced at the next meeting of Coun-
Gill; looking to a better method of obtain
ing vital statistics in the health office
There is already an ordinance requiring
physicians and midwives to report births
and deaths, but it is not satisfactory, and
the proposed ordnance requires registra-
ton, SO that the physicians and mldwlves
may be communicated with when neces-
sary, The city has no record of them at
present.
The proposed ordinance requires that
'ah physicians practlcing in the city of
Savannah, including those in public in
sututons, are hereby required to register
their names and address at the office Of
the health officer Of the city Of Savannah.
on or before Jan. Is of each and every
year, and all persons practiciug midwifery
in the city of Savannah shall also register
their names and address at the office of
the health officer on or before the same
time.
BE it further ordained, that a physician
or midwife falling 10 comply with this or
dinance shall be subject, upon conviction
before the Police Court of the city of Sa-
vannah to fine not to exceed the sum of
500 and imprisonment not to exceed thirty
days, either or both in the discretion Of
the court"
Just what action Council will take Is a
question, though it is probable that the
ordnance will be favorably considered. A
law was proposed along the same line re-
curing midwives to pay a fee of 81. which
It is said, practically granted them a
license TO practice their profession. This
would likely have met opposition from a
number of physicians. The last proposed
ordnance makes no such provision, how
ever, and may, therefore, go through with
out much opposition when presented.

sHA sHTS RIOTS.
Pace Restored Only After Arrival
of Foreign Warships.

Port Townsend, Wash, July 1.-The
steamship Arizona has arrived here from
Japan with a large cargo of tea, which,
unfortunately for the consignees, did not
reach here in time to avoid the 1O-cent
duty.
Late mail advices relating to the recent
riots at Sha Shi China, state that the
riot was quelled after the arrival of Brit
ish, japanese and Italian warships.
The japanese government has made de-
mands on China for indemnify for dam
age inflicted by rioters on the property
OF the japanese during the riot.
A recent issue Of the japanese Times,
speaking of the Hawaiian annexation res
olution passed by the House Of Repre-
sentatives, characterizes the United States
as nation of land bbers, and that
its success in the war with Spain has
imbUed it with a desire 10 acquire terri
tory, not only by peaceful means, but by
force, If necessary.
