Admiral Dewey says he is a
democrat and we say let it go at
that. From all appearances there
is something back Of all this which
no doubt will develop later on.
1t is going to be a hard job for
Dewey to make the democratic
leaders, and politicians believe
his pretensions. Even # the
democratic leaders and politicians
had the smallest inclination to
consider Admiral DENEY's pre-
tensions, the credentials he is able
to furnish would hardly satisfy
ther that he is a democrat. Sur
veying the democratic situation,
the conclusion imposes itself that
this is not a good year even for
dark horses. The majority is
committee TO BRYAN and nothing
can prevent his nomination. The
instruction for him of the Pennsyl-
vania delegates the other day
the very day which witnessed
DEwEY's discovery that he is a
democrat indicates the drift OF
things. The platform OF the
Pennsylvania democrats evades
free coinage and limits itself to a
vague reference to "bimetallism."
But stress is laid on the anti-im-
perialistic issue, and this can scarce
ly encourage Admiral DEWEY,
who is identified with the expan-
sion policy beyond remedy

has of late been considered. Japan should least ten regiments should be temporarily taken from the Philippines. In the wet season in that archipelago strong, aggress- i've movements are not possible, and 10000 American troops can do much more good in China than they can in the Philippines. Upon Japan and America and Russia, as the three immediate sea neighbors of China, rests the responsibility for the lives shut up in Pekin, and America should not shirk her duty. It is regretable that Congress is not in session, but vigorous action on the part of the administration will suffice The want of it may preeipitate disaster at Pekin that will justly fall upon an admin istration that refused to call Congress to its support.
 There are many, however, who believe the Wu-Hay dispatch is but piece or Chinese craft. It came in the cipher code of the State Department, but it is more than likely that the foreign office in Pekin held a goodly lot of delayed dispatches, all in cipher. and it is further known that the Chinese have in the past been quite as skilful in deciphering ciphers as white rivals have been. It is altogether possible that the dispatch is fictitious, but the bet ter part of the world prepers to believe it is not,~ and as the administration believes it is not. it should hurry troops from the Philippines to Tien Tsin. If 1000 valuable foreign lives are saved in Pekin, it is plain that Japanese and American troops must do it
The age-herald., 1900-07-22

Minister Conger and his family, the att taches of the legation and the diplomatic
 representatives of the other nations, with
 the exception of the German Minister, may
 be alive in Pexin, but it is evident that all
 the other foreigners including the mission aries, have been massacred. If this be the
 case and if the Tsung-li- Yamen, or foreign office, has protected the lives Of the Minis ters, the Chinese government will be in po- sition to say to the world: This was an
 uprising of a mob which the government was temporarily powerless to control The government was no party to it and should
 not be held responsible"
 The Chinese are smooth diplomats, In way The Tsung-l Yamen has known that the murder of the Ministers either on the, part of a mob government troops would lead to the powers declaring war against China. Thus, the government has probably exercised itself to protect the Ministers while aiding and abetting in the massacre of all other foreigners.
 Lii Hung Chang, the premier diplomat of China is supposed to be en route from Can ton to Pekin. He has been called to Pekin to negotiate with the powers Heretofore he has always been successful. Now, how ever, the chances are that he will not be permitted to reach Pekin The dispatches say that the British cruiser, Bonaventure, has been sent forth from Shanghai to inter- cept the ship which Ii Hung Chang Is sailing, and to seize him, making him a prisoner of war. This being done the al- lied forces will march upon Pekin, capture it and settle the Chinese problem as they see fit, without diplomatic negotiations with any representative of that nation. In
 other words, the allied powers would be in position to deal with it as the United States government has dealt with the Philippine Islands.
 Lii Hung Chang is a willy old diplomat. IL IS not Improbable that he is a party to his being taken prisoner by the British cruiser Bonaventure It Is a well-known fact that he has realized that the present problem at Pekin would be a hard nut to crack, so to speak He has resorted to every known means of Chinese diplomacy 10 prevent being called from his home at Canton to Pekin. He knows that it is al- most impossible for him to reach Pekin or even to reach his old home, Tien Tsin without the consent of the foreign powers fie further realizes that it is only mat Ter Of time when the foreigners will take Pekin and have the whole Chinese gov ernment in their own hands. He believes that England, which has always been the most forceful power in the Far East, will be predominant in the formation of the new government. It may be, therefore, that he would prefer to be the prisoner of the British temporarily, that later on he may act both for the powers and for China in setting up a new form of government. u Hung Chang has for many years been in favor of the development of China. He has advocated the open door policy. He
 has succeeded to some extent, but in the main has not been successful with his own

Nomination of Gov. Beckham.

The nomination of Acting Governor Beck ham for the remainder of the fouryear term of Governor Goebel was not unexpect- ed Some opposition to the young leader had been developed but as his course dur ing the trying times that followed MT. Tay- lor's inauguration was on trial, his nomi nation by exclamation logically followed. Although he is young in appearanve and in fact, being only 30 years old, he has had not little experience in public affairs. His three terms in the Legislature, and his nomination for Lieutenant Governor after a thorough canvass of the state, besides his service of nearly a year in or near the executive office during the most critical period in the entire history of the state, really go to make him something more than a tyro in politics and public business. His judgment and courage have never been deficient, and the people of Kentucky judge him worthy of confidence in high office Beyond all doubt the decision of the con vention will become the decision of the state.
 This is rendered doubly sure by the plat form. It condemns the Goebel law, and it demands its amendment "so that the most hypercritcal can find no excuse for chars- ing fraud or unfairness;" and until the law is so amended the platform declares that the Republicans shall be represented upon both the state and all the county boards of Election Commissioners. These declara- tions and pledges are broad, sincere and fair, and they will be kept to the letter beyond a doubt.
 The party in Kentucky will be helped by these manly declarations in favor of fair elections, and so will the Democratic party in all other states; for to some extent the Democracy were charged everywhere with responsibility for the Goebel law. Iii the face of the declarations of the Kentucky Democracy such charges will fall to the ground. The Goebel law will be amended to the satisfaction of all, and Kentucky S name wlli be found this fall high up in its old place in the Democratic column

Safety of Minister Conqer.

If the dispatch that came to Secretary Hay through the hands of Minister Wu Ting Fang be genuine, as many are in- clined to think it is, all the legationers and missionaries were alive at least last We'd nesday. They were alive, even if they were not well to the point of comfort. They were "under continuous shot and shell from Chinese troops" The legation CTS were in the British legation, and the missionaries, who number several hundred, may also have been there. It does not fol- low that the words Chinese troops" means more than armed Chinese. It is construed by many to mean Boxers, and that the gov- ernment and the Chinese regulars are doing their best to put down the mob that have made China an enemy of western cvIliza- tion.
 If this view of the case be accepted the need of haste on the part of the allies in the preparations for march to and assault upon Pekin becomes riore pressing than it

Fences on Northside.

The disfguring fences of Central or Cap itol Park have been pulled down, and all the Kings horses and all the Kings men could not set them up again, for the sover- eigns in that locality would rise up in in- dignation against such a step. It is diff ficult to account for the presence of such a fence at all except upon the theory that the town was once as Iskkooda is now-the tramping and feeding ground of various four-footed beasts. The beasts are now that mar the beauty of residence streets should be sent to the trash pile and in Fifth avenue at least they are fast going there.
 But what is seen to be good in the case of Central Park, would be equally pleasant to the eye in East and in West Park, and the people who live near the two last named parks are beginning to ask, why must we longer submit to the fence abomi- nation when Central Park has been re- lieved of it? This question is before, or soon will be before. the City Council.
 If the City Council would take down the fences that have descended, so to speak. from strctly bucolic days, and if the South crn Club, possessing high and forbidding terraces would take down it's useless fence, a reform would be started on Northside that would become infectious, and that portion of the city would cease to remind one of Louisville or other up-the-creek settlements.
 The retention of street fences when there is nothing in the street to fence against is not only illogical but it is unaesthetic. It mars the town. It gives offense to the eye. It depletes the purse. It is bucolic in the extreme. It should be voted out by accla- nation. Down with the fences Let us have French revolution in the interest of landscape beauty, and in the up-build- ing of a town that can be made very love ly despite it's smoke if it's nightmare fences can be gotten rid of.

Love-words please him who has loved Loyalty for seventy years well lived, and under whose rooftree echoes of dear remembered voices murmur ceaselessly as time vainly seeks to make antique a noble soul. The Senator, beloved of multitude, is in heart-longings the you and me of our time. of all time; for such a spirit can neither forget things loved, nor become old, nor pass away It is our essence immortal. The objects of our loves pass from us, but love itself remains. Even though It brought bitterness, it survives as a memory that pleases. The loved might have fallen asleep young and with beauty; but that was only the resting of the dusty vesture of decay. The spirit lived, and is elsewhere waiting, waiting, waiting!
 
 When the briar-root pipe is lighted in hour of peace love begins to murmur it's own music in secret words and melody ringing tenderest variations upon names that are cherished, illumining faces that are fair and dear; some that came to gladden. bright yesterday, some the long yesteryears. All about is the music sweet with no note discordant; all around are the faces and every face is smiling. O. Won der! These are the goody things, the goodly creatures of one's own old world always new. Every one reaches to write, every one calls in love to love that shall not pass All these ones own, and as much a part of ones being as the heart that aches, and is glad, and enshrnes things that are holy. To turn from them and their endless cause would put out the fire in the root of the briar, would break the tool of loves dearest toll as it is moved by unseen hands to harmony that is flooding the viewless wind which shapes the grey clouds rising into thousand joy ous forms.

 Speaking of the Chinese situation, the
 Presidnt and the Secretary of State have
 appointed a special envoy in the person of w. w. Rockhill to go to China and report
 upon the situatio there MT. Rockhill was formerly secretary of the legation at Pe- kin. He speaks Chinese fiuently and is thoroughly familiar with the customs and
 methods of diplomacy of that country. He
 was for several years assistant secretary of the State Department and has recently been director of the Bureau of American Repub- lies He has been selected to go on this special mission to China on account Of his peculiar fitness for such duty. He is real ly clothed with extraordinary power and Is sent to represent this government particu- larly in the event of an effort on the part of the powers to dismember and divide up China among the great nations of the earth now participating with military and naval forces in protecting the lives of foreigners.
 Even if Minister Conger is finally rescued. MT. Rockhill, as special representative of the government will probably outrank him in power.
 It seems that our gallant little friend, General Joe Wheeler. can't get enough of , war He has made a special requst of the War Department that he be immediately assigned to duty in China. In speaking about the matter to a Chicago reporter, General Wheeler said that he thought 1t the duty of every one who holds a con-
 mission in the United States army to desire active service when 1t could be accorded
 him; therefore, he had specially requested to be sent to China, where he could see active service at once.
 The little General travelled all the way to the Philippines to get into genuine fight, but the other ambitious officers would not give him the opportunity He knows that he can get a fight and get it quick if he goes to China: therefore his anxiety. If there's any more fighting like that around Pekin the General will probably find a warmer reception than he or any one else desires.
 President McKinleys is meeting with se- were criticism throughout the entire coun- try for not calling an extra session of Con- gress to consider the Chinese situation. Under the constitution only Congress can declare war. The President only has the power without the cooperation of Congress to send ships and land men in a foreign country to protect our citizens. The statesmen of the country outside of the ad- ministration seem to think declaration of
 war against China will soon be necessary,
