Cotton in Japan and China.
From the New York Commercial Qnd.

1t has been claimed that the larger use
of raw cotton in both China and Japan
will tend 20 advance the price of that
raw material because the lower wages
paid in those countries will enable a high
er cost of material. But il must be re-
membered that cotton cloth that is made
in China and Japan will take the place
of similar goods that have been made In
other countries and neither the Chinese
nor the japanese are easy marks as trad
ers. Moreover the worlds supply of raw
cotton annually exceeds the worlds con-
sumption. As long as this condition eX-
ISIS the price Of cotton must remain low

Interesting phases of the gold from sea

to day. There Is now some suggestion that
the Rev Mr.. Jernegan. the moving spirit
Of the Elecuolytic Marine Salts Company,
was the victim of a gang of criminals, and
that he fed the country from fear of ex-
posture. This opinion has in part for its
backing the fact that a quantity of gold
and silver was found in the safes of the
concern after Mr.. Jernegan had left The

nothing more than a COW camp in a will

OF appealing to the Queen Regent in be-
naf Of peace, and who was said 10 have
been forced to leave the country without
having accomplished her purpose, did real

''You may break, you may shatter the

unmistakable odor of Peruvian guano
hanging around that rumor about Peru's
attacking the unprotected Pacific coast Of
the United States while the Spanish war
is in progress Do the Peruvians expect
US to pay them a bounty on their frag-
rant fertilizlng materials? We can hardly
do better than put guano on the free list
where il is o-day.

The wealth of the country having been
immensely increased there is a wonderful
subsistence of all political agitation. The
currency question has been buried, and
the operations of the tariff have been so
obscured by the new war revenue legisla-
ton that no disturbance to business is
likely TO come from its discussion.
Under the circumstances with peace at
home the Indications point to such uneX-
ampled prosperity that 1t will wipe out the
remembrance of the four lean years that
have preceded this.

The idea that the Hoosier farmer is silly
whenever he looks that way is an erro-
reous one. The other day a green goods
man offered TO sell Farmer Stoner of Val
paraiso. Ind, a job lot of counterfeit
money at heavy discount. There was a
roll said TO contain 5000 of bogus money
packed in a tin box, and the would-be
swinder told the farmer that he might
have it for 5000 cash. The farmer said
he would take it, and counted out the good
money quickly. The sharper packed this
into n second tin box which looked pre-
cisely like the first one-at least that is
what he pretended to do; then he gave the
farmer one of the boxes, and cautioning
him not TO open it for an hour, drove off

If was only a sunny smile.
 And little 1t cost in the giving, But 1t scattered the night Like morning light
 And made the day worth living. Through life's dull way wool it woye In shining colors of light and love, And the angels smiled as they watched above, Net little it cost in giving If was only kindly word,
 And word that was lightly spoken, Yet not in vain, For it stiled the pain
 Of a heart that was nearly broken. If strengthed fate beset by fears And grouping bindly through mist Of tears For light to brighten the coming years, Although it was lightly spoken It was only helping hand, And seemed of little availing. Hut it's clasp was warm And it saved from harm brother whose strength was falling It's touch was tender as an angels wings, But 1t rolled the stone from the hidden spring. And pointed the way to higher things, Though it seemed of little ayailing.
