A While ego We had yellow journal

down With Philippine bonds and were
therefore interested in securing an
American protectorate over those islands
and an American guarantee of their
obligations Now somebody has re-
talisated by sprlDgiog circumstautial
allegation that various yellow journals
have themselves been favored by the
Cuban junta with large blocks of Cuban
bonds and that that fact explains
their zeal for American interference
10 behalf Of Cuosn liberty and their
present insissauce Oh the necessity of
annexation of Cuba and the Cubao
debt. We have not the least idea that
either story is true but if lie is ever
fair, the Cuban bond fake is fair
retaliation for the Philippine bond
fake. Our idea about the yellow
journals is that they urged on the war
simply because of reckless desire to
have sensation to revel in and an
opportunity to sell newspapers and ad-
vertise themselves. There is sweet
consolation in the fact that the war
has been as disastrous to the yellow

The New York Sun prints long
article on cotton in the Soudan, the
gist Of which is that England by her
conquest of the Sondan has opened
for cultivation and trade an enormous
area of cotton country, which will
make her independent Of the Ameri
can crop If England undertakes to
make her new territory cotton field
with present prices the people who
survive there will doubtless sigh for
the return Of the Mahdi, for he killed
quickly aud mercifully.
AS we understand. there are
tremendous transportation difficulties
to be overcome before Soudan
cotton crop can be brought into
competition with ours. even if cotton
as good as American can be grown
there, which has not yet been proved.
Western Africa appears to be the
home of cotton The plant grows
wild there and yields enormously and
year after year, there being no frosts
to kill it But the fibre does not
compare with the American in length
or color. The natives make a good,
strong cloth of it with primitive hand
looms and much labor, but it does
not seem to be fit for machinery. We
fear American cotton will remain a
long time without a real rival and
that southern farmers will go on a
long time raising it with the mort
gage as their most popular agricultu
