- Atlantn Constltutlon says.

The Atlanta Constitution says:
"The South Dakota Democrats do not
represent the opinion and sentiment Of
their party when they commit themselves
TO the nonsensical statement that the
Philippine war is a reputation OF the de-
claration of independence and the Monroe
doctrine. and an assault on liberty every
where.
we regret the war, and we believe IT
could have been avoided by prompt
declaration of the purpose of this govern
ment that the Filipinos should be permit
ted 10 enjoy autonomy first and indepen-
dence when they are prepared for IT. But
tbe facts as they exist are that our troops
were compelled TO resist attacks made
ON them and the results OF that resist
ance bear no more relation 20 the declara-
ton of independence or to the Monroe
doctrine than if they had occurred In
Cuba"
This Is good sense and good patriotism.
A Great deal Of claptrap is being said and
written on this subject for political effect
but the Constitution represents the views
Of ne great body Of the Southern people
They are unwilling that the United States
DAG shall be hauled down in the Philip
pines until an our obligations shall have
been discharged.

no IND OUT.

In spite of the fact that some slight
at the meeting of the international
council Of women the situation hasnt
really changed. What that situation is
| is powerfully set forth by Miss Ella
Hepworth Dixon in an article in the HUI
manitarian on the increasing number Of
women who refuse to marry. Accord
ing to Miss Dixon, women are ceasing
to marry and for the very good and
sufficient reason that they have dlscov-
cred what a trifling and worthless crea-
ture the male human animal is. In the
language of the London Speaker, para
phrasing Miss Dixon's statement of the
case: Man has been found out. In the
middle Victorian period woman adored
him. She was expected to take him
on trust, to worship his imperfections,
to regard marriage with him as the only
ideal She knows better now. Her at
titude toward him Is purely critical. In
the intervening years woman has de-
veloped her sense of humor and what
little humor man ever had has stood
still. She continues to give him tea and
find kind of sport in his society, for,
after all, he makes an agreeable butt
Woman no longer lifts adoring eyes,
waiting for her lord to indicate his
pleasure that she shall be his welded
wife. Her eyes dance with satirical
mirth, and if man were not deluded by
his colossal conceit he would know that
his entire relation toward this charming
creature had changed and that she is a
wholly independent power, conscious
that she Is superior in wit and in all
that pertains to philosophical happi-
ness. The average sutors" possess
certain of the least endearing qualities
of the Anglo Saxon race; those quail
ties, 1t may be whispered, which, though
eminently suitable for the making of
empire, are not always entirely appre-
ciated on the domestic hearth
OF course, Of course. And Miss Dixon
makes striking revelation of Woman's
sense of fumor when she admits that
widows, like widowers, usually show
an extraordinary eagerness to resume
the letters of the welded state.''

canal and the number of these large
vessels is increasing each year.
The problem before the Canadian gov
ernment is the increase of the capacity
of the canal and the Improvement Of
Port Colborne or the loss of lake traffic,
Both of these things must be done to
hold the business. The grain trans
portation is now being diverted to other
channels. In 1898 about 16 per cent. of
the grain that reached Buffalo passed
east through the Welland canal. In
1898 this percentage had fallen to 8, a
loss in five years Of AZ per cent, as COM
pared with Buffalo. In the meantime
the receipts at Buffalo have largely in
creased, being now about three times
the volume of ten years ago. The canal
has cost the Canadian government $24,-
$4,000, and with the increase in the size
and dimensions Of lake craft it will in
few years become practically useless as
an artery of commerce unless it is en-
larged.

J4P4N'S NEW POSITION

Yesterday was great day for Japan.
Then the treaties of the western powers
abolishing extra territorial jurisdiction
In Japan and opening that country to
The japanese expect fine things of the
new condition, but the foreign devils
don't feel so good. Although the mkado
has issued proclamation advising the
! people to act with courtesy and tact"
| in dealing with foreigners, there Is much
uneasiness among Americans and Euro
| peans residing in Japan The Orientals
| are essentially cruel, and change Of
| codes does not change character. Some
of the foreigners describe the new
codes, patterned after those of the west
ern world, as merely books. One I'M
pleasant feature of the business is that
the japanese have been altering the
codes upon the faithful execution of
which the treaty powers relied. Under
the new conditions foreigners must con-
tribute to the cost Of government, but
cannot enter upon the possession of
real estate. They can hold shares in
Japanese companies. but can neither
hold the office of director nor cast vote
when the election of directors Is in or
der. 1t was not proposed to permit any
tint, tion h11t he
eminent insisted and the foreign DEVILS
finally consented.
The first step in the new system is to
put an end to the old plan of extra ter
ritoriality, by which foreign citizens
were judged by different standards from
japanese. The second essential thing is
the opening of the entire interior of
Japan to foreign residents and trade
Until now there have been only five
treaty ports-Y okohama, Nagasaki,
Kobe, Hakodate, and Nigata. In these
places foreigners have been able to live,
to purchase property and to trade, but
outside of these they could not even
travel without a special permit. These
five places are an insignificant part Of
Japan. Henceforward the entire interior
Of the empire, with it's populous cities
and inviting fields of industry, is thrown
open to foreigners. They may live any
where, engage in any kind of business.

western powers have recognized the full
sovereignty of an oriental state Japan

THE WEEL1ND CANAL,

The change in the carrying trade on
the great lakes is illustrated bv the
difficulties the dominion government is
meeting in regard to the Weland canal.
This waterway is twenty-six and three
quarters miles long, connects Lakes Erie
and Ontario, through the Niagara pen
insula. The canal has fall of 326%
feet, which neceseitates twenty-six locks
and these are 270 feet in length and
forty five feet IN width. The depth OF
the canal is fourteen feet. (which was
supposed to be ample to permit the pas
sage of the largest vessels that would
ever be ueed upon the lakes and river.
Some years ago boats engaged in lake
and river transportation were built
with draft too great to admit of pas
sage through the canal when they We're
loaded and a railroad was constructed
parallel with the waterway, to take a
part of the cargo from a vessel at one
end and deliver it at the other, thus
permitting the boat to pass through.
