United States Consul at Chin

Says the People Are Very
Apprchensive.

Decides to Follow the Lines
Laid Down.

WASHINGTON. June l3.-The follow.
ing dispatch has been received at the
state department from United States
Consul Martin:
Chin klang, June l2.-Largc mum.
Ders natives orgar lied secret society:
halted here. People very apprehensive;
no protection; want cruiser
Martin is the United States consul at
Chm kiang and his telegram is the
hr>t news received here to indicate the
spread OF the Boxer agitation in that
section Of China. Chin kiang is one of
the most important treaty ports i'll
China. 1t is located on the Iangtse
klang, little over 100 miles above the
point where the Wo Sung enters, and
IS about l2o miles from Shanghai.
There Is an intimation at the state de-
rartment that the consul Chin kiang
has exaggerated the danger Of the stu
alton and that the mere hating near
the town of a number of Boxers is no
evidence that they have hostile inten-
tlons against the American consulate.
1t Is probable. therefore, that in the alb
sence OF more serious developments no
ship will be sent TO Chin kiang.

WASHINGTON, June l3.-The cabinet
meeting was attended by Secretaries
Hay. Hitchcock, Long and Gage and
Postmaster General Smith. 1t was de-
voted largely to a discussion Of the
Chinese situation. Secretary Hay laid
before the cabinet dispatches from Min.
lister Congcr which indicated that the
situation is very critical Secretary
Long had no late dispatches. The steps
that have been taken to reinforce Ad.
miral kempff were gone over and it
was decided to stand by the policy
which has been entered upon, Of push.
ing measures for the protection OF the
lives and property Of American citizens,
and Of acting Independently as far as
possible. Ii may be that in the accom-
plishment of this result the forces OF
the powers Will have TO act III unison
for the protection of all foreign resi-.
dents in the disturbed districts. but this
is to be the
Extent Of American Activity.
1t is TO be confined solely to the protec.
ton and safeguarding of our own inter-
ests and those of our citizens. The
Chinese government will be looked to-,
under the general laws Of the comfy OF
nations, to restore order and TO make
such rcparation as is proper. From all
political schemes in which any of the
powers may become involved the United
States is to hold aloof. This is the gen.
eral policy heretofore outlined and it
will bc adhered to.
The navy department has cablcd d.
rect to Rear Admiral kemptf at Iaku
to inform him that marine relI1orce.
mcnts have been ordered to hlm from
Manila. Thus the admiral Will he III
postion t. act with greater freedom IN
sending relief expeditions to Pekin and
elsewhere. knowing that he Will soon
be able to replace the marines diverted
from Taku.

"Triumph of Politicians"

In an editorial under the above
heading, from the New Orleans
Times-Democrat of March Is. 1898,
we make the following extract:
"After themselves disowning and
flercely denouncing section a ma
jority Of members of the Constitu-
tional Convention yesterday passed
that offensive section, offensive to
Democracy, to political honesty and
to Americanlsm; and the Conven-
ton too, has passed this offensive
section in face of the fact that the
ablest Democrats in the United
States Senate have declared it to be
unconstitutional. Senators Caffery
and McEnery have protested against
its passage, and have declared that
it contravenes the Federal Constitu'
ton. In this opinion they are joined
by such stalwart Democrats and un
compromising States rights Senators
as Turpie, of Indiana; Lindsey, Of
Kentucky; Vest, of Missouri; Berry
of Arkansas; Walthall, of Mississip
pi; Turley, of Tennessee; Pettres, o
Alabama, and McLaurln, of Soutl
Carolina, and many members of tn
House of Representatives.
= With the opinion Of these Senator
| that the grandfather clause is IN
constitutional, it should cause a.
men VINO before voting, take tn
oath to support the Constitution 0
the United States to vote against tn
Infamous measure, which was simt
ly triumph of politicians" in GU
legislature that forced it's adoptlo
and submission to the people.

A worthless Makesbift-a Deception.
Progressive Farmer.l
During q campaign year it requires
some courage for party newspaper to
criticize any act Of its party, or init
maze that It's party ever did anything
it should have left undone or left un-
done any thing it should have done 1t
is gratifying, therefore, to find one pa
per, the Winston Sentinel, putting
aside the temporary interest OF its
party long enough to tell the refresh
ing truths contained in the following
paragraph. The Sentinel says:
"When the legislature meets in June
1t should make some effort to undo the
terrible bOtchery it committed In pass
ing that so-called antitrust law. We
thong t ut the time that is was q
worthless makeshift if rot deception.
Subsequent events, or rather the lack
OF subsequent events, have not chang
ed this opinion. Has anybody heard
of single trust being suppressed or
even mOlested in the slightest degree
by this law? This is serious matter
and will have to be confronted by the
Democratic party in the coming cam
paign, unless . more stringent law
against trusts is passed. The people
are asking for bread and they are not
content with receiving a stone. Let
the Democratic legislators take warn
ing and do something that means
something towards relieving the pe0-
pie from the expressions OF the trusts"

There is q great deal of difference
between a leader and boss. A leader
that leads in the way pointed ont by
the party, is necessary. And one
leader in whom the party can trust, is
much more effective, than several
leaders who try to lead in many ways.
The leader that is most abused and
disliked by the opponents, is the man
his party should stick to the tighter.
He 10 nearest right. 1t is the duty Of
the party to ard and encourage him.
Populist should be proud of the man
they have placed in the lead. He has
never gone back on his party. He
has never cast y vote or performed
one official act that has not been for
the good Of his party and it's principles.
No higher proof Of this can be given
than from the fact that every such act
has been criticised by the enemies OF
POpulist principles. The one alluded
