MISSIONARIES CRITICISED.

II some of the stories told of the want
of judgment on the part of our mission
aries in China are correct, the Chinese
have a good deal to put up with. OF
course there Is a proba bility that these
stories are exaggerated. stin they I'M
doubtedly have some foundation.
For instance. Earnest De Bavier an ex-
porter of Chinese goods, who arrived in
New York city few days ago, says that
the Chinese have a great deal of justice
in their hatred for foreigners, and they
are not influenced In their hatred by re-
ligion. They don't care enough about the
souls Of their neighbors to bother them
selves about religion. The trouble be-
tween the natives and foreigners very fire.
quently grows out of civil privileges,
which are obtained through foreigners,
chiefly missionaries.
Mr. DeBavier says that It often happens
that the local mandarin imposes very
heavy taxes upon the people. The heath
en- Chinese pay without murmuring, but
the Christian Chinese run to their mission
aries and declare that they are being un-
duly oppressed. The missionaries, instead
of taking the matter up with the manda-
rim, write to their respective ministers at
Pelin and the ministers immediat Is seek
an audience with the member Of the gov
eminent having charge of such matters.
The Pekin government rather than have
trouble with foreign government. orders
the mandarin to remit the taxes. The re-
suit Is that there is brought about Bit
ter feeling between the Christian and the
heather Chinese, and this feeling on the
part of the heather Chinese is transferred
to the foreigners, who are really to blame
for meddlIng with matters with which
they have no concern.
II the truth could be obtained It would
appear. doubtless. that unintentlonnlly the
missionaries are the cause OF a great deal
OF the anti-foreign feeling in China. The
Chinese are disposed to be Just and to
treat foreigners fairly. Foreigners, hold
Ing them in contempt on account OF their
weakness, no doubt often impose upon
them. 1t is not to be wondered at, there
fore, that they are beginning to show hos
tihty to foreigners.

THE PLATFORM NOT sATIsFAC-
TORY.

II Republican newspapers reflect Repub-
lican sentiment there is a good deal of
dissat abstraction among Republicans with
the platform adopted at Philadelphia It
is claimed that 1t is too long and that it
lacks vigor. The criticism is a just one.
The greater part of the platform is taken
up with issues that were discussed in 1896
and with statement of the great things
the Mckinley administration has accom-
plished.
1t is expected that the campaign will
settle great issues. One is whether the re-
public shall hold fast to its moorings or
shall drift in the direction of Imperialism
and militarlsm. Another is whether the
movement to concentrate the wealth of
the country in few hands by means of
trusts shall be checked by the strong
hand of the law. The utterance Of the
Republican platform in respect to bo.h of
these important matters is tame in the
extreme
The declaration in regard to the Phil
ippines-the declaration that bears upon
imperalism--is so non-committal that 1t
is difficult to make out what the policy OF
the Republicans relative to those islands
is Apparently it is to retain possession
of them but there is no direct statement
to that effect. In framing that plank
the effort was to avoid saying anything TO
which Senator Hoar and other prominent
Republicans who are averse to retaining
the islands could take exception.
There Is the same sort of uncertainty
in the declaration respecting trusts. Ac-
cording 10 il there are good trusts eni
bad trusts. and the bad trusts must be
suppressed, but who is TO say which are
the good and which the bad? 1t has been
suggested that one reason why the plat
form is made up of words rather than
ideas is that senators had too much 10 do
with making It. Indeed. senators were
everywhere in evidence in the convention
proceedings If there had been fewer
senators among the advisers in prominent
positions il is probable that the platform
would have been shorter, holder, stronger
and clearer 1t would have left no DOUBT
In the minds of the people as to what the
policies of the Republican party are, and
IT would have created the impression that
the partv was very much In earnest in It's
efforts to carry out its policies. Inc plat
form is such a poor sort OF an AFFAIR now
ever that the Republican papers are ex-
peuding their enthusiasm on the ticket
They are having very little to say In COM
mendation of the platform.

THE FLORIDA TICKET.

The ticket nominated by the Democrats
OF FL 5rida app ars to give great deaI
Of satisfaction in that state. The contest
for the nomination for Governor was
long and hard fought one, owing proSa-
blv to the fact that all of the candidates
were worthy men, any one of whom wouia
make the state a frst-class chief eNecu-
live. The choice fell upon Mr.. Wilham
Jennings OF fernando county. He is a
Young man who has raised himself TO ms
present high position by his own EFFORTS.
His intellectual ability and his moral
worth long ago brought him prominent
" before the public The people watched
HE career and decided that he was man
who would render a good account of him
self in a place of honor and responsibility
The fact that he was not native or the
STATE made no difference to them A very
large percentage of the people of Florida
is from other states. The place OF man )
birth does not cut much OF a figure in
that state. The people there are always
ready TO honor a man who is worthy of
being honored.
Those who know Mr. Jennings well are
ernor. He has the abil ty and strength of
character to fill the place worthily and
accertably, and there is no doubt that he
will do it.
Nearly all of the present state officers
were renominated. They had made coed
records, ard the convention saw no rea-
son for making a change. pretty hard
fight was made on the Superintendent of
Public Instruction but he had friends
enough to enable him to overcome the
opposition. From all accounts he has
made a fine record as an official, but
has been a little too radical in some of
the reforms he has made to suit every
body. The people recognize, however that
he is a very earnest and conscientious
official 1t is doubtful IL it would be an
easy matter to get a more satisfactory
official for the position he fills.
The ticket will of course be elected. Tn
people know now who their next Gov
ernor. justice of the Supreme Court and
state house officers will be.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The New York Evening Post Qnd) says.
Amnesty for the Filipinos who have
resisted our forces is shrewdly timed so
that the proc .amation may appear stimuli
taneously with the Republican national
platform. AS the resolution on the Phil
ippine ques ton which was adopted at
Philadelphia yesterday represents a long
backdown from the position which the
ardent Imperialists have occupied as TO
the character Of our rule in those islands,
so is the offer of amnesty to those who
have been fighting our troops a very diff
ferent policy from the programme of re-
lentless pursuit Of rebels which was orgi-
nally outlined 1t is a good thing. how
ever, that the administration has now
done; and the issue of the proclamation is
cause for consratulaton. What every
right-mnded man wants most of ali is a
cessation of the fighting, and 1t seems
only reasonable to expect that the offer of
clemency now made will help much 20
bring about this result"

Roosevelt has been most outspoken in
sympathy with that policy and IN coupling

vcmber the party but emphasized the
fact that Imperialism is lis final goal. So
we say that the ticket throws down the
gauntlet with double Vehemence as to "a
question on which hinges the life of our
system, What are the Democracy going
to do about Il? Kansas City must tell. "
The Philadelphia Record Dem) saws:

A TRUST IN HEARTS.

A combination in restraint of unlimited
competition which neither of .the great
parties will oppose has been formed in
Massachusetts. 1t is a crust of summer
girls, for the protection of hearts. In
heriting hard-headed, close trading
methods from their fathers, these Mas
sachuetts girls desire and intend 10 bring
summer counting down to a strictly bust
ness basis. They have grown tired of
wasting valuable time on men who are
flippant or unworthy. When a girl has
arrived at the manageable age, each
season counts, and several seasons vast
ed means a whole lot. 1t has been known
time and time again. that young men
have gone for their vacation 90 the sea-
shore or other watering place, and pro-
ceeded forthwith to make love to the
prettiest girls that would permit them
to do SO. without meaning a word said
Again, there are gay married men who,
leaving wives and babies at home, pass
themselves off to the summer girls as
bachelors and make ardent love. In
stances are not wanting in which such
bad. bad married men have won the af-
fections of summer girls, only to break
their hearts. It is possibly true that some
of the summer girls are as fippant and
fond of Irritation as any of the men. But
that is another story altogether. 1t is a
