Some weeks ago the examining surgeon
at a Cincinnati recruiting station sug-
gested that men who are III prison LOT
offences against the Federal laws should
be given a chance to enlist in the army
and mako amends for their past mis-
deeds by lighting against Aguinaluo'
From the standpoint OF those for whose
benefit the suggestion was made the
scheme was a very good one. Indeed
letter purporting TO be written by a con-
Wet was published, and in this he says
that a burglar possesses the very quail

sition is too utterly absurd to demand
a moments consideration. and we know

would be a disgrace to civilized war
fare. and if the felons were sprinkled
among respectable men the most violent
protests would follow. The fact that
desperadoes and criminals are brave men
has never been demonstrated. In truth,
they are generally as weak physically
as they are morally. No, the scheme Is
Utopian one-too silly and sentimental
TO bear discussion. The convicts have

A Western contemporary, in belttling
the surgeons proposition. says that the

ties called upon for troops scraped up
all the riff-raff they could find, and

These blacklegs did not accept the OPP
portunities for reformation; on the con-
trary, they made worse soldiers than they
had citizens. Their sole object in join
ing the army was to avoid the alterna-
tive of going TO jail.

After Bryan had been nominated for
President in 1896, prominent resident
of this city, and by the way good
Democrat, argued that Bryan could not
be elected because he was a western
man and unable to carry New York and
other eastern states. That his argu-
ment was correct no one will dispute.
No party will enter campaign without
expecting to win; Democrats will not re-
peat the experiment of 1896, and there
is nothing to prevent any one from read
ing between the lines at this early date,
that when the time arrives for the
naming of a presidential candidate
Bryan Will have been shelved by the
Democracy. The frenzied friendship of
Bryan and silver will not deceive many
people; the Democrats have tried that
game too often.

THE CHINESE CONCESSION TO THE
SSIiNS.

The extent to which the Russians are
interesting themselves in the opening of
China is illustrated by the statement.
from Russian sources, that merchants Of
Semipalatinsk in Siberia have succeeded
in obtaining concession to work min
eral deposits in the province of Sin
Tsiang. in Chinese Turkestan. The
concession has been granted by the local
authorities and ratified from Peking.
With the approval of their own govern
ment, the Siberian adventurers are pre-
pairing to begin work on an extensive
scale. The deposits covered by the con-
cession are on the slopes and foot hills
of the Katu mountain range, and are
said to include silver, copper and lead;
while coal has also been found, and there
are some indications of petroleum, The
working force, which Is now on its way
to China, is in charge of experienced
miners from the district around Semi
palatinsk and from the Ourals, and con
slsts largely of Kirghiz workmen from
the steppes, whv are Russian subjects
That outcrops of gold and other minerals
existed in the katu mountains has long
been known to enterprisug Russian
prospectors who have wandered over the
border; but the Chinese have hitherto
refused to work the deposits, or to grant
permission to foreigners Now. how
ever, Russian influence Is TOO powerful
in Northern China to be resisted.
1t seems to be taken for granted that
the entrance of Russian miners will pre-
pare the way for permanent occupation.
Disputes between the newcomers and
the natives are likely to follow, and a
military force will be needed to preserve
order. The possession of the country.
apart from its value for minerals will be
very convenient. as line to connect the
Siberian railroad with the Trans-Cas.
plan line can be located through it.
