Mandarindom literally goeth about
as roaring lion seeking what it can de-
your, says the North China Herald. Of
fees are held at fixed prices by metro
po.itan and provincial authorities;
taxes are collected in full, but are deci-
mated, before they reach the imperial
treasury; "'the big Ash eat the little
Ash, and the little fish eat mud" by
which smile the Chinese proverb ex-
presses aptly the fact that the great
officials feed upon the smaller ones, and
that they in turn feed upon the people.
No official position in the empire can be
obtained without the use of money, nor
retained without illegal practices. If,
then, nothing can be hoped for from the
rulers of China, what can be said about
the student class which is placed at the
head Of the four divisions of the people
This class is conceited beyond endur-
ance; they still speak of the "round
heaven and square EARTH" and dilate
upon the Five elements" Foreigners
are still to them barharians who came
TO China to learn the laws of propriety;
the five great continents represent only
divisions Of ancient fepdal states trib-
utary to their country, and commerce
Is despised as only being taken up by
those who have not the mental power to
master books. They wear large Cog

Queen and Palestine,

Queen Victoria has often expressed a
great desire to 60 to the Holy Land,
and, standing on the Mount of Olives,
to look down upon the ruins of Jerusa-
lem. She considers this the best way in
which to picture the past. With adj
vancing years the longing has grown
more upon her, and up till recent times
none of the royal household would have
been in the least surprised if her ma
jesty had suddenly made up her mind
to take trip to Palestine.

HIDE AND SEEK.

When the last issue Of THE ENQUIRER
went to press there was every reason to
believe that the Spanish Cape Verde fleet
was approaching Porto Rico. The war
board thought so, and had sent Sampson
to meet and destroy the Spaniards. Ev-
crybody was i'm state of expectation oi
news of the greatest naval battle of the
world, which, it seemed, might occur at
any moment. But since then the situa-
ton has changed, and at this writing
everybody is at sea.
1t is Il fact that within the past few days
there has been Il complete change Ill the
plans of the war board. This is now adj
mittcd. \ battle at or near Porto Rlco
was confidently expected by the presi-
dent and those who are assisting him
with his plans. The battle did not occur
for the simple reason that the enemy
failed to do what he was expected to do.
During last Tuesday the Spanish Cape
Verde fleet was reported from various
points, principally among the West India
islands. For several hours Il report that
the fleet had been sighted of Martinique,
was regarded as reliable; but finally about
) O'Clock the department received advices
which it regarded, and continues to re-

A telegram to THE ENQUIRER last
Tuesday stated that the Spanish Cape
Verde fleet was at Martinique, French
West Indies. The Associated Press dis
patches next morning had it that the fleet
had returned to Cadiz, and there are in this
issue several statements based upon this
In the Associated Press
dispatches of Friday morning, however,
it is stated that the fleet is really where ii
was reported to be last Tuesday, at Mar
tinique. That this last report is correct Is
easily possible, though, by no means, GER
tain. Our telegraphic news, which does
not reach us until several hours after this
has to be put in type, may bring more
definite information.

TALKING OF PEACE.
Foreign Diplomats Think Spain Will Do
Well to Quit.


Well to Quit.
WASHINGTON, May 10.-As a result
of the Spanish reverses at Manila, lead
ing members of the diplomatic corps,
representing some of the most intluen-
tial powers of Europe, have officially
exchanged views on the opportuneness
of a movement, dictated by the most
friendly spirit and in the interest of
peace, towards urging upon Spain the
futility of further prosecuting the
war and inducing her to sue for peace
on the basis of the REIMBURSEMENT of
Cuba, the promise of war indemnity,
and the occupation of Manila by Ad-
miral Dewey until the war indemnity
is paid.
1t was stated tonight by one of the
most influential members of the dip
lomatic corps, an ambassador, that
such step by Spain was the logical
result of the crushing Spanish defeat
at Manila. With Spanish politics in
the present disordered state and rev.
olution impending, he did not know
whether the men at the head of the
government were strong enough and
brave enough 20 save Spain by hero
ic sacrifice of her pride. Unless they
did, he said, the disaster of Manila
would be repeated, for it was now pat
ent to the world that Spain's military
and naval strength was grotesquely in
adequate to cope with the forces OF
the United States.
While expressing this view with
much positiveness, it was put forward
only as tentative, and not as move
which the European powers had act
ually begun. II was stated with posi-
tiveness at several Of the embassies
and legations today that intervention,
in the sense Of staying the course OF
the United States, was no longer be-
ing discussed.
The military authorities connected
with the foreign establishments here
say that Admiral Montejo and his en-
tire staff of officers ought TO be, and
undoubtedly will be, courtmartialed
for allowing themselves to be surprised
by Admiral Dewey's fleet.

- The ostrich sticks his head in the sand
and thinks he is hidden. Likewise misin-
formed business men sometimes place
their announcements in newspapers
which are not generally read and delude
themselves into the belief that they are
advertising. The hunter comes along
and catches the ostrich, which figures it
was not to blame, because it was hidden.
The deluded business man loses the trade
of many of his most well-to-do and pro-
gressive customers, and cannot under
stand it because he believes that all the
while his inducements have been promi-
nently before their eyes. Poor ostrich
poor misintormed man, until you learn
that facts rule supreme there is no hope
for either of you.

gard, as authentic, to the effect that the
fleet had returned to Cadiz, Spain, the
port from which it originally started.
II was this information which interfer-
red with plans of the war board, and
which at once caused to be put in opera
ton new line of policy. The immedi-
ate object of destroying the Cape Verde
fleet, which was then thought to he NOV
ing i'm the direction Of Havana, was to
protect the proposed plan of invasion.
With the Cape Verde fleet back at Cadiz,
however, there was nothing left for Samp-
son to do but to look after Porto Rico,
and the understanding is that he COM
menced this task Wednesday afternoon.
The invasion operations, were also accel-
lerated much more rapidly than had been
previously intended, and at this time the
probability is that many thousand troops
are being landed at different points on the
Cuban coast.
AS to what Spain is going to do is a
perplexing problem. 1t looks like she
ought to quit; but there are not many
who believe she will do anything of the
kind-not yet awhile. While it is certain
that a part of the Cape Verde fleet has re-
turned to Cadiz, it is not at all certain that
the whole fleet has returned. Few peo-
pie seem to believe now that any attempt
will be made to bring any considerable
force across to Cuba; but the possibility
of an attempt to send the fleet against
Dewey is receiving more or less consider
Grafton.
A movement against Dewey, though
possible, IS not generally considered
probable. The distance through the
Strait of Gibraltar, Mediterranean sea,
Suez canal, Red sea and Indian ocean,
around the Maylay peninsula, is in the
neighborhood of 10000 miles. With all
neutral ports closed such trip could not
be made without the use of large num-
her of coal transports, and this would
mean very slow travel. The fleet could
not get very far before the United States
would be advised, and although it would
have a good start, it would stand fair
chance of being overtaken by Schley's
Flying squadron. Even if this should
not happen, it is thought that by rebuild
ing the Manila Notifications, which work
is now no doubt under way, Dewey would
be able to defend himself at least until
the arrival of help.
However, as intimated above, what is
going to happen now, nobody can tell.
OF course the invasion and taking OF
Cuba will proceed without unnecessary
loss of time; but the Spanish fleet is still
problem. 1t looks now as if the United
States will have to go over and destroy it
on it's own coast, and although that can be
done, it is not going to be an easy under
taking.

TOWN ELECTION.

BY reference to the advertised notice
published in another column, it will be
learned that an election is to be held in
Yorkvlle on Saturday, May %, for in
tendent and wardens to serve during the
ensuing year.
What was intended to he an official no.
tice was published Friday morning. The
time of the election, however, was fixed
on Tuesday, May II, between the hours
Of and O'clock.
The reporter fo- THE ENQUIRER called
the attention of member Of the council
to the fact that under the charter it was
necessary to give Is days public notice of
an election, and that the polls must be
kept open from to 5. The notice, there
fore, as given, was insufficient, and an
election on May II, would be illegal.
Attention was also called to the fact
that the proposed election must not be
held later than the month of May, and
as there appeared to be no other way in
which to avoid legal complications which
could easily prove serious, The ENoUIR-
Err was instructed to insert the proper
notice, which appears elsewhere in this
iSSue.
