THE OLDEST NEWSPAPER.
1t WA Established In China In the Eighth
Century

Century.
The oldest newspaper In the world is
the Using Pao, or Picking News, founded
in the year 71o A. ID. Until quite late
ly 1t was generally supposed that the
Kin Pan, a Chinese journal published
In Picking for the last thousand years,
was the oldest newspaper in the world.
In a very xble work recently published,
however, Imbsult Huart, the French
consul at Canton, shows that this high
honor belongs to the Tsing-Pao, which
has been published continuously since
the year no and is even said to have
been founded some 200 years before
that date, or early in the sixth century,
500 years before a newspaper was known
In Europe.
The Tsing-Pao now appears as a book
Of "a pages, octave size, tied in a yell
low cover by two knots Of rice paper.
Each page has seven columns, and each
column has seven characters, or letters,
which read from top to bottom. The
types are made of willow wood. This
is the edition de luxe" officially recog.
nized by the emperor, and the price OF
which is about "a cents a month. There
js also a popular edition, got up rough
ly On poor paper and printed, or rather
daubed, from a plate of engraved wax.
This costs 16 cents per month and il
issued an hour before the other.
It is the official journal of the gov.
ernment-the ''Times" Of China. II
gives all the details concerning the per-
son of the emperor, his movements, his
maladies, his remedies, the imperial
DEGREES and the reports of the ministers,
In the printing of which every error il
punished with death.
It to all the provinces the
date which has been fixed by the EN-.
peror for the people to change their
summer hats for winter ones, which
they are ex scted to do as one man.
This journal is easy to read, for it ap-
pears in an English translation in
Shanghai.
After the Tsing-Pao the most impar.
tant paper in China is Of modern date
the Chin-Pao, or Shanghai News.
founded in 1872. 1t has a circulation OF
some 15, 600 copies, and at the close of
the Franco-C Chinese war Iii Hung Chang
made use of it--an innovation till then
unknown-to influence public opinion
and demonstrate by history the rights
Of the Chinese over Anam.
Chinese newspapers are usually print
ed on yellow paper, which is changed to
blue in case of mourning and red on
gala days. One paper has three editions
each day-on yellow paper in the morn
ing, gray at noon and white at night
so that the sellers cannot substitute one
edition for another in serving their GUS
toners. Another journal has a title
which signifies "the reproduction of
what it is necessary to know, all given
on a couple of pages, octave size. They
readily attempt TO ZEN Chinese foreign
words, as, for instance. the word ''tele-
phone" is made to read "to-il foung."
The Chinese press, like many of their
other institutions, has remained station
ary for 1000 years, but is now begin
ming 10 wake up and modernize itself.

ION TO CUBA"
Many Plans and Suggestions Now Be
fore the Administration.

Washington, May 30-"On to Cuba
has been the cry around the White
House since the establishment of the
firm belief in administration circles
and at the executive mansion that the
fleet of Admiral Cervera is securely
bottled in the bay of Santiago and ap-
parently beyond power Of doing harm.
Secretary Alger was in conference
with the president about noon and it
is said that he was uncompromising
in his views that Cuba ought to be in
vaded at once by powerful army.
He argued, it is said, that everything
should be swept with a rush now that
danger to conveys is over. The ad-
ministration does not believe that an
other fleet is yet on it's way from Ca
dir. Even if it has left there, it is
yet weeks away from Cuban waters.
Land an army and lombard Havana
from the sea- is the cry on all sides
around the White House. This can
not be said to be the determination
of the president, who is securely keep
ing his plans, but it is the slogan Of
friends whose advice he frequently
took before the declaration of war.
With this almost universal advice
that Cuba must now be captured are
few trusted friends of the president
with the opinion that Porto Rico
should be taken first and Cuba after
ward. "BOmbard San Juan in earnest
this time, silence the forts, land troops
and capture the island" is the advice
given by one of these friends
There are $4,000 Spanish troops on
Arizona republican. [volume] (Phoenix, Ariz.) 1890-1930, 1898-05-31

the island" continued the speaker.
I'VE can land $4,000 Americans and
the island is ours. While hot. the
climate is healthy, and death and de-
struction do not Turk in every breath
Of air as in Cuba. Besides we want
Porto Rico before the Spaniards ask
sor peace. After we secure the is
land we can march on Cuba, which
We will have to give up to the Cubans.
We won't have to give up Porto Rico,
however, and we want something to
compensate us for the war;
1t is declared that the president has
this plan under consideration and is
seriously giving it his attention.
Those who are advocating the cap
lure of Porto Rico are among those
opposed to invading Cuba at this
time. They see in this new pro-
yramme a chance to gain their point
and at the same time largely silence
The demand from all quarters for
marching on Cuba.
The projectors of the Porto Rican
campaign say that Schley can easily
sink few old vessels in the narrow
outlet from Santiago and effectually
silence Cervera for all time. Our ship
duQ d lew Uu6u WOuiu OS oul4lSlCAtY IL
is claimed, to prevent the removal of
ibis debris. Such scheme would
It is further claimed, permit with
drawal Of majority OF Schiey' s
squadron to whatever point deemed
best by the naval authorities.
All these suggestions are predicated
on the belief that Schley will be un-
able to get Cervera and must be con-
tent to wait on the outside.
A prominent officer of the engineer
corps of the army, who was at the
White House today. said that if Com
modore Schley desired to attempt to
get at the Spanish fleet he would
probably send for the dynamite cruis-
ar to counter1nine the narrow channel
entering the harbor of Santiago.
This would be the most interesting
thing in naval warfare" he said.
''Countermining is done by mapping
off a place in squares. Big blocks OF
dynamite are thrown into each square
and exploded. If there are any mines
they are exploded when the dynamite
goes off. The actual work is easy II
aot interfered with by Notifications or
ships"
