BRYAN SPOTS A SNEAK THIEF

at one of the meetings he addressed
in Kansas, few days ago, Mr.. Bryan
saw from the stand a pickpocket at
work in the crowd and effected his ar
rest by pointing him out to the police.
The Chicago Chronicle gives the proper
point to the incident. "a man." it
says, "who can spot a thief and
catch him or aid in catching HIM by
putting policeman on his tracks is
needed at the head of the national adj
ministration. Samuel J. Tilden was
such man. If he had not been de-
frauded out of the presidency there
would have been such thief hunt
among men who had defrauded the
government as would have been per-
petually notable in the history of Grim
inal reform"

SOUTHERN COTTON MILLS.

Although this is year of bounding
prosperity in most industries, it does
~ Cd
lnot- appear 20 apply that way to INC
New England cotton manufactures.
They have shut down for month,
which means no wages for a twelfth of
the year and makes tolerablY big re-
duction. The demand for cotton goods
is limited, although they have been
offered at very tempting prices.
According to the New England papers
the depression in cotton goods is
entirely local, as the reports from
the cotton mills of the South
show the is fourishing industry and
that new spindles are being added
right along to keep up with the de-
mand upon the industry. The Secre-
taryof the Southern Cotton Mill Asso-
citation reports that the industry ''was
never so prosperous, the returns show
ing more new m4lls than ever in our
history" and that "the new spindles
being erected number over 400, 900. ,
Wages are lower at the South, but

porting family as dollar and half

PLUNDERING IN PEKIN.

According to recent adyices from Ia
ku the soldiers of the Christian nations
now in China have been guilty of out
RACES upon the helpless Chinese that
are shocking in the extreme. 1t appears
that the allied troops, our own among
them, are not only looting on a scale
that will leave nothing in Pekin to be
destroyed, but have criminally assault
ed Chinese women and shot down the
unarmed men just for the sport of the
thing, Ever since the capture of Pc
kin these representatives of Christian
civilization have engaged in carnival
of robbery, murder and rape, which it
is claimed is without parallel in all
history.
All of this goes to show that when the
gentle Christian warrior of this era
starts on looting expedition he can
double discount the pagans of Asia and
the savages of Darkest Africa. If there
is anything OF value left in Pekin it is
fair to assume that it has been very Sc
curely hidden IN the bowels of the
earth. The representatives of Chrlsten-
dom have apparently stolen everything
in sight, and to robbery have added
the foulest of crimes, just to show the
heather Chinese that they are not a
deuce high to the Christian when his
blood is up. According to the accounts
of the sacking of Pekin there is moth
ing now at the Chinese capital to be de-
stroyed but the walls, but whether
Christian vengeance requires these to
be blown to pices with dynamite is a
question which has not vet been de-
cided. It is true the Chinese have been
guilty of the brutal slaughter of mis-
sionaries and attempted to massacre
the foreign ministers, but the Chinese
do not pretend to be guided by the Cos
pei of peace, righteousness and justice,
whereas the Christian nations preach
that gospel, except when there is an
abundance of loot and their appetite
for blood is so keen that killing human
beings becomes a pleasant pastlme. In
view of the fact that the Chinese were
unconvicted before the Pekin relief ex-
petition landed, there is much reason to
believe that the horrible scenes of
bloodshed and rapine they have wit
messed will not convince them of the su-
periority of Christianity as expounded
by the soldiers of the Christian ma
tons. Under the circumstances they
should not be blamed if they prefer to
remain benighted pagans. -New Or

A CHANGE IN THE SITUATION.

''Six weeks ago." says the Albany

ayers were claiming New York State

panic stricken, and Mark Hanna has
announced that he will remain in New
York throughout the campaign. Six

situation has changed in the eyes of
the Trust campaign managers, and they
realize that the great commonwealth of
New York is likely to repudiate the
