Every important public crisis makes or
mars reputation, and the crisis which
has caused Republican administration
toretain Consul-G General Lee; a Democrat,
at Havana proves the rule. Appointed
TO his post by President Cleveland, Con
sui General Lee was found to be SO emil
nently fitted for his difficult duties that.
when President Mckinley was asked to
displace him in the interest of a political
supporter he declined to do so. Not ON
ly did he give General Lee the negative
compliment of retaining him at Havana,
in the face of the usual pressure" but
he openly spplauded his management of
the nations interests and complimented
his abilities and discretion 10 most pos
tive way.
Aud the Presidents estimate of Gen.
Lee is confirmed by public opinion
Though he performs his functions in a
hot bed of political plotting and at the
meeting place of conflicting interests, his
management of affairs is universally APP
proved as correct. The Spanish. on the
Que hand, the Cuban patriot on the 9th
er-both commend his efficiency, his dis
erection, his urbauity and his impartial
ity. American sympathizers in the rebel
cause have no fault to find. Even the
jingoes at Washington are satisfied with
General Lees "Americanisn,," though
he has from the first refused 70 play the
role OF frebrand. He has held the bal
ance even A gallant soldier, he has not
cared to play the part of demagogue at
Havana for effect in the United States,
but has known how to mingle courtesy
with irmness, confining himself strictly
to his official duties. a Lee could badly
be vulgar braggadocio who finds enjoy.
ment in insulting people with whom he
has business to transact.
1t goes without saying that the South
heartily applauds General Lees success
in his very trying and difficult position
1t also appreciates the honor conferred by
the present administration upon name
held in reverence throughout Dixie. The
enchantment of reputation that has fol
lowed upon General Lees occupying a
post peculiarly suited to his character ami
abilities cannot beignored. None of our
dipIomats-even those trained for the
profession-can be said to have done bet
Ter under like circumstances and to have
won equally general appreciation. The
explanation lies, perhaps, chiefly in the
simplicity and manly directuess of the
ConsaI>General's character. OF kindly,
considerate and generous nature, he in
pircs without effort the confidence aud
trust which are essential to The highest
diplomatic success-Ba2timore San.

ONE BICYCLE GIRL

From the Somerville Journal. Before she got her bicycle she sometimes
 used to make The beds, and wash the dishes, and help her
 mother bake She would even sweep the parlor, and dust
 the bric-a-brac, And once she did the washing, though it
 almost broke her back. But now shes got her bicycle, she doesn't
 do thing About the house, but day and night she's
 always on the wing. ~ She's done a dozen centuries, or more, I've
 heard it said, While her mother does the washing sweeps
 and dusts, and makes the bread. She looks extremely natty in her brief bh-
 cycle skirt. She often talks with strangers, and she has
 been known to fiirt. Her health was never better; brown and
 rosy in her skin. But her mother, if you'll notice, is looking

The Fall of Manila.

If no loss of life occurred at Manila, 1t IS force. It appears that the city surren- dered internationally, and that Captain General Augusti fled to Hong Kong. It does not appear from the meagre report that the insurgents had much to do with the capture of the city. The less they were in 1t, either before or after capture, the better for all concerned.
 No one seems to know just what Aguan- aldo wants or immediately expects. As Manila bay and city are now held by the United States both by conquest and by preliminary treaty, and as the final peace may not be ratified in less than three months, it Is plaiR that anything which threatens the peace and security of manila must be put down. Aguinaldo and ms forces carry our guns and ammunition and in their anxiety to get rid of Spain forever they may have sense enough to accept the military rule that the United States will temporarily impose. Under the terms or the protocol and of the surrender of Manila it is plain that Spain and Spanish regulars are no longer in it. They were all surren- dered at Manila, beyond doubt-that IS, all that were on the island of Luzon. There may be small attachments on the other is- lands, not enough, however, to materially affect the situation.
 Pending the preparations of definitiVe treaty the duty of the United States in the Philippines consists in the preservation Of peace and order throughout the group, and especially in Luzon. Nothing will be per mitted to exist there that in any manner threatens the control of Manila bay and city. Aguinaldo surely will not be per mitted to set up in Luzon an opposition gov ernment pending the determination by the peace commissioners of the disposition or the islands Aguinaldo surely will not be permitted to add In any way to the com plications of the situation, and there may | therefore be work right along for both | Merritt and Dewey. They can be trusted | to do without instructions whatever the situation demands.

Let neuer day nor night unhalloao'd pass, But still remember aDhdt the Lord hath
 done. HENRY TT.
The AngIo-Russian Crisis.

The new phase of the troubles in China is development of coast occupation. It relates wholly to the building of railroads, and therefore the control of the interior. Newchang is port at the head of the Yellow sea, or rather of the Gulf of Leao- ton Newchange itself lies north of Corea, and the railroad which England hoped to control is to run to Moukden and Kirin, far northern points in Mauchuria, and in the Russian sphere of influence in China, and she certainly intends to have one. As matters stand. China takes Russian money in constructing the railroad from Newchang to Kirin via Moukden.
 The other railroad trouble relates to Franco Belgian concession for the con struction of railroad from Pekin to Han- kow. Hankow is in the great central Yanktse valley that is ended at Shanghai. The control of the great river and valley is a matter of vital importance to Eng land, or rather the securing of it against unfair control or closing by some other power Is of such importance. For all that England asks is an open Yangtse val ley.
 Parliament has been prolonged to Octo- Der 29, but before adjournment MT. Bal four intimated that the Yangtse matter could be settled by British gold. He prac- ;,,,s tate the British government in the case of the Suez canal, by purchasing the rights of the French-Belgian people who, of course, are ready, all promoters are, 10 accept a good profit. If therefore, the Hankew concession falls into British hands, there is little occasion for an antici- patton of immediate war between Eng land and Russia. 1'--@
 Russia is certainly not prepared to con- duct a war in China She is powerless in China against England. She could not land a regiment there. Her Siberian rail- road is not finished, and will not be in several years. England controls the sea. England controls the sea even as against France and Russia. She may not have more ships than the two have, but they are better ships and would be better fought. There will be no war between the two countries. In one way or another Eng land will gain nearly all she wants. She She cannot maintain that any longer, but she will be apt to build about as many railroads in China as any other power will build, and that will determine her sphere of influence, if there must be spheres of influence in that unhappy country.

Better Times Are C0minq.

The advance in the price of iron, and the great crops that are now well assured wheat, corn and cotton-point to sea- son of stable business prosperity such as this country has not known since 1S92- possibly since the Barring failure in 1890. Crops were good last year, and wheat and provisions at least brought big prices Exports were unprecedentedly large, both of agricultural and manufactured pro- ducts. They will doubtless be heavy dur ing the coming twelve months. Railroads will thus be employed, factories will be full of orders, and business activity will be maintained, and probably widened in many directions.
 A successful war is usually followed by a season of business activity, and there is no reason for thinking that the year to come will be exceptional The country is in a condition and frame of mind, so to speak, to enjoy and utilize a period of profound peace Every section of the country is preparing to share in the re- vval of enterprise and industry.
 No section will get more generous all lowance of the good things in store for the country than this state and particularly this district of the state Besides great crops, we have development of mining, both of coal and ore, and an extension of steel manufactures that are very promis- ing indeed. New coal mines are opened so frequently in the district now-a-days s that scarcely any mention is made of them. The brown-ore mining is in its in- fancy, but it is coming forward rapidly The building of the new industries at Ens- ley is felt in every nook and corner of the district. Long before 1899 is ended every body will know that Birmingham is on it's feet again, and that 1t is a great center of the steel, as well as of the iron, industry.
