FOREIGNERS EMPLOYED IN CHINA

THEIR JOBS.

From The New Orleans Times-DemOCrat
"A great many skilled machinists and engineers
have gone to China from this country during the
last ten years" said the captain of a large cargo
steamer, who has made frequent trips to the
Flowery Kingdom Most of them We're engaged
to take charge of big plants. and while the jobs
seemed tip top the surface the result nearly

ious to avail themselves of foreign skill, but take
ment. A manufacturer, for example. will put in
modern machinery and hire American expert as
a superintendent, giving him couple of sleepy
looking young Cinnamon assistants. In six
months the sleepy looking pair have mastered all
the technCaiueS OF the plant, and some pretext
fact that ne has a five ten year contract is no
special obstacle All labor contracts may be voided
for good cause. and in China there Is any
difficulty in proving anythtng you like about a

THERE is issomething peculiar about
the candidacy of Admiral Dewey. Nei-
ther the republican or the democratic
newspapers support him, and people
generally do not speak Of the matter
seriously. Dewey will not be presi-
dent, but his countrymen will soon
forget the few mistakes of judgment
that he has made since he was taken
In hand by an ambitious wife and sell
fish politicians. Dewey is still the
grand old sailor that overthrew the
enemies Of his country in Manila bay,
and he does not need the presidency to
place him among the bright and shin
ing lights of history. Dewey's name
will be a familiar one to coming gener.
ations when James Buchanan and some
Of our other presidents shall have been
forgotten. George III. was king, but
the world hears oftener of Nelson.

The sentiment that United States

That body, by a vote Of 24o to Is,

THERE is nothing startling from
South Africa this week. The Beers
continue to be as active as the Irish
mans flea, which, when you put your
hand on him, ''wasn't there.' Gen.
Roberts is still at Bloemfontein, and
dispatches state that, owing to the i'm
peratiye need of winter clothing and
more horses, it is likely that he cannot
make forward movement for more
than a month.
