PROTEST FROM CHINA
Objects to the Chinese BEING Ex.
eluded From the Philippines.
REGARDED SERIOUS.
Chinese Government Claims the Act 10
i.e a Violation Of Treaties and
Contrary 10 international
Law Of the Country.

Washington, Sept l9-The imperial
Chinese government, through its min.
lister here. Wa Ting Fang. has lodged
with the state department an emphatic
protest against the military order Of
General Otis. excluding Chinese from
the Philippines. Neither the state de-
partment nor the Chinese legation will
give any information concerning the
protest. but from entirely reliable quar-
tiers il is learned that It insists that Gen.
Otis action is contrary 10 international
law in violation Of existing treaties. and
In complete disregard Of the friendly
relations which nave been 30 long main
tanned between the two countries Min.
lister WI called at the state department
last Friday and II is believed be sub
mitted the protest in person at that
time.
The matter was promptly brought to
the attention Of the president, as the
protest was Of such a character As TO
give the subject an International aspect
considerably beyond the purely military
questions involved II is said that China
points ont that she has welcomed the re-
cent advent Of the United States into
the affairs Of the far east and has hoped
that this step would prove a further
boud and would extend the relations be-
tween the two countries. particularly
in their neighboring possessions. Fur
thermore. II is expected that among the
specific points of protest submitted by
the Chinese government, is one TO tho
effect that such an order is departure
from the announced purpose Of the pres
ident Of the Uuitsd States 10 maintain
the present status Of affairs in the Phil.
ippines until congress had determined a
permanent condition
The military phases of the question
have been referred 10 Secretary Root,
owing TO his familiarity with interna'
tionrl law. he will probably consider
the subject broadly, both in its interna
tional as well as its military aspects
General Otis order was issued some
time ago, without direction from Wash
ington and apparently rs the military
necessity, although the Chinese protes
urges that there il no such military no
cessity. but on the contrary that th'
Chinese have rendered valuable militia
~ assistance.

Mr.. WoOdwarl's personal animositieS
and private political ambitions, have
no place In discussions conducted
with view to the improvement OF
the fire department.
The town is dry as finder and the
wind blows all day and all night with
a velocity, that i trust the weather
service is fast enough to keep track
of. After months OF searching Mayor
Winnctt has found man Of brilliant
reputat ion as ire fighter and as a
captain of a station. Because his ap.
pointmcnt disturbes the political ar

fire department., 1t is contested. Mr..
Woodward forgetS that the misguided
people Of his ward elected him to rep
resent their interests in the city coun
Gil, and that the interests Of the whole
city imperativcly demand better fire
department.. and a more forciblc head.
The Courier hopes Chief Clement

forever and his influence in the cOun-
Gil is not so great as his roisy conten-

The Early Settlers.

Nebraska farmers who came to his
country in the sixties aud seventies
because they had not money to buy
land in the more populous portions Of
the United States, who pre.empted
lands here from the government, who
founded families that as years pass
will become the aristUcracy of the
state, deserve the credit of having
founded and developed this great
state. In constantly belittling the
accomplishment Of the Nebraska
farmer Mr.. Bryan is doing him an in.
Justice During the lean years we
have just experienced the farmers
paid of their debts. This years har.
vest will be spent for contemporary
needs which have way with the
farmer as well as with the dweller in
a city, OF expanding and contracting
with his income.
These early settlers are old men
now. They oversee the work of the
farm but no longer take an active
part in it. The extent of the change
they have wrought in Nebraska is
forgotten or overlooked by those who
seldom drive over the prairies. They
have transformed thousands of acres
OF grazing lands into cultivated fields
and thus increased their producing
capacity by one half. In conveying
the impression tt the audiences he
speaks to that Nebraska is a poverty.

anarchists railing against all kinds OF
institutions. Mr. Bryan traduces these

Not because there was no proof
against him, not because they pitied
his long exile, but because the wor d
Of tourists were SO disguised that they
would not attend any show given by
Frenchmen. National and otlicia
disapproval Of the conduct Of the
Dreyfus matter was, of course, out OF
the question. There is little doubt
though, that the French would rather
