are in revolt against Mark Hannaism.
Those who have not openly declared

the ranks of the anti-imperialist
league. At the leagues liberty"
congress at Indianapolis almost so
per cent of those in attendance will be
Republicans, if indications point cor
rectly. Men who have voted that par
tvs ticket for years, who fought for
the cause of liberty in Cuba and who
were sent to the Philippines with the
idea that they were TO continue the
effort to deliver sovereign peoples
from bondage, are up in arms against
McKinleyism as it is dictated by the
greedy manipulators OF the trusts and
the stock exchanges.
This protest against the Mckinley
war of conquest has been voiced in
hundreds of letters received at the
headquarters of the American Anti
Imperialist League. A letter re-
ceived last night is typical or the
scores which are coming in from all
sections of the country. This letter
was written by S. j. Shivel of Paola,
Kan, who served as an officer of the
| Twentieth Kansas Regiment in the
Philippine campaign. He went to the
islands under the belief that the Fill
| ipinos were to be relieved of Spanish
tyranny.
When the veil was lifted on the pol
icy of the Washington governmental
course which favored the trusts and
the men who sought to gain a grip
on the islands for their own financial
gain-he resigned his commission and
returned to the United States. Since
that time he has been stumping the
Western states, teaching the people OF
the exact condition of affairs in the
East. He will attend the anti-im-
perialist conference at Indianapolis
and his letter continues as follows:

DIR. William Elliot Griffis, in re.
cent article on Japan, speaks of the
rapid growth of its already over
crowded population, and adds that the
Japanese. who have heretofore been
largely vegetarians, are now beginning
to eat good deal of meat. A meat
eating population makes greater de-
mands upon the land of country than
does a nation of vegetarlans. A piece

Ollie part of the world. Well cured cod
10 be sure, is not to be disdained By
any one; nevertheless by far the larger
part of 1t is eaten by Catholics. 1t is
tbe fresh cod of our inland fisheries
that has supplied most of our markets.
while the sailed cod of the banks is
chiefly sold either in Catholic coun-
tries or in lands where that religious
element is large. The well-known
'stockhsh" Of commerce is the dried
cod of Norway and Sweden, and 1t is
shipped at once for the southern parts
of Europe. These lands of many fast
DAYS also buy the Scottish dried cod.
Wells filled with salt water in the hold
of English cod vessels keep the fish
alive till it arrives fresh in the mar
kets; for the English eat very few
cured Goldfish. Frances cod catch ia
almost as large as our own, and her
fshermep are sent thousands of miles
to the banks to catch and cure the
great stores of cod which this Catholic
country requires. 1t is not Great
Britain, but rather Italy, Spain, Por-
tugal, and Brazil that are the largest
buyers Of the cured fish which is the
greatest resource of Newfoundland.
These countries pay cash, too, for they
do not send Newfoundland in commod-
tiles one-tenth of the value of the fish
they buy from her. Canada's exports
to Italy in 1896 were wholly fish; to
Spanish West Indies, seven-ninths fish;
to Brazil over five-sixths fish; to Spain,
over one-half fish. There is no coun-
try in the world in which so much
fish is eaten as in European Russia.
and the reason is because the Greek
church has many more fast days, and
observes them more strictly, than the
western Catholics The use of meat
is prohibited or greatly restricted on
nearly half the days of the year, and
the result is to give enormous import
ance to the prolific home fisheries in
river, lake and sea. which supply &C.

CHINESE
WOMEN


Whiting Fang, the talented Chinese
minister at Washington, speaks inter-
astingly of the women of his country.
According to his statements the wo-
men of China are much like those of
the United States so far as occupation
and amusement go. They do not have
the same freedom of society with men
that American women enjoy, but they
are not secluded in any such way as
are the women of Turkey, or other
Mohammedan countries. They meet,
wit ut restriction, the intimate male
friends of their respective households,
and their husbands do not try to pre-
vent them from knowing the men
whom they admit to their own close
acquaintance.
The women in China frequently
smoke pipes, but they are of the class
known as water pipes, or hubblebub-
bles, and the tobacco is very mild.
They play cards, chess and dominoes
and read novels. From their point of
view household duties are in no way
derogatory. Among the well-to-do
classes, the women never go to mar
ket, the buying of supplies being
looked after by the cooks. The wages
of servants are low and more domes-
tics are employed than in this coun-
try. Where family in the United
States would have three servants, a
similar household in China would
have seven or eight. Very often there
is a nurse for each child. Chinese Ia
dies frequently occupy themselves
with embroidery work, but they do no

Napoleon went down. Wellington had,
as compared with Napoleon, the one
great superiority which the French
writer Taine says julius Caesar had
over Napoleon. Caesar, according to
M. Tame, knew what he could not do
as we'll as what he could do, and Ma
poleon did not. wellington knew what
he could not do as we'll as what he
could do, and he showed it in his
craftsmanship as well as in his bat
ties. Intellectually he was not much
of a statesman, and his own natural
Judgment would generally have led
him astray. But he saw that there
were great forces coming up in the
movement of English politics which
neither he nor anyone else could re-
Bist, and he knew when to advise his
sovereign how to give way, and at
what time, and to accept the teaching
of facts. Thus although his own I'M

otherwise, he consented to become the
instrument of some of the greatest re-
