Raleigh, N. O., Aug. II. 1898.

The country-bred boy has the dis
tinc5 advantage over the city bred fell
low in two things: his strength is
greater by reason of his country birth.
and he has a clearer idea of hard work.
The country-bred boy, as a general
rule, has to struggle for his existence;
he has to help on the farm, and gener.
ally it is at hard work. This gives him
strength and power OF endurance,
while all the time he is breathing an
atmosphere Of pure air into his lungs.
Experience prepares such a boy for
hard work. The city bred boy rarely
knows what hard work is, and when
he meets it as a young man he cannot
endure it. Il is true that the
country boy approaches city problems
with a lesser knowledge Of them than
does the city bred boy But often, as
has been said, the two fundamental
essentials in carving out ones way to a
successful career are good health and
hard work. With these a young man
can accomplish almost anything he de-
eires; without them he can do nothing.

The United States ana China.

From the Boston Pilot.
The year 1893 opens with the promise of
great war in which, If the United States
Senate does its duty bytrejecting any treaty
Of alliance or arbitration with our only en-
envy, We shall have ne share. 1t does not
often happen that nations duty and it's
interests coincide so exactly as do ours in
this crisis. We have no right to join in
the spoliation Of China; and 1t is clearly
to our interest to take no part In any world
war for such purpose. Our first and fore
most obligation is to heed Washington's
behest and avoid all ''entangling alliances >"
Obeying that injunction we shall avoid
wrong-doing, either as principal or access
sorry and virtue will be rewarded on the
spot; for the quarrels of the outer world
will result in profit to the neutral
We do not rejoice much in the prospect
of that profit; for the bills, alas, will have
to be paid. not by the ambitious kaiser
car or queen who foments the bloody con-
fict but by the people. Always the people!
Hans or Ivan. who does the fighting and
dying, and 1T is ever his lowly kinsmen
who pay the butchers bill.
The evil does not even end there Let
the great powers partition China and make
it q group of dependencies like India Still
will the common man at home be the suff-
erer. A new competitor villa arise to take
the bread out of his mouth, with Chinese

by government sanction. An actual over
running of the western world by oriental
arms would hardly be more disastrous to
civilization that the Industrial conquest Of
the same world by colonial pauper labor
Pat, Sandy, Johnny, Hans and Ivan do not
think of the contingency when they go
forth to conquer All Sin at the bidding Of
their masters, but it is very serious con-
sideration all the same. They will never
see the absurdity of royalism and the worse
than absurdity of mistaking national big
