Oriental War is Coming.
WASHINGTON, d. c., September 26
"A member of the Diplomatic Corps
informed The Bulletin reported today
that the recent actions of the United
States respecting China. were based
solely on the fact that this. Government
has in its possession information that
formal war will start in the Far East
in the next two months at the outside,
and the United States did not care to
take the risk of becoming involved in
1t. The man who communicated this
information is not an alarmist. He be-
lieves the administration has shown
excellent judgment in getting out of
the range of these great events. He
said:
president Mckinley ordered his
troops to withdraw from China because
he came into possession of information
that could not be delayed much longer.
He ordered the American warsrips to
the Far Eastern waters because we
must have something there to protect
American interests. l feel absolutely
sure that he was correct and that the
war viii begin within sixty days. I ex-
pect it much sooner Probably it will
start by a formal declaration of war
on the part of Germany against China
but how it will end no living man can
tell"

History long ago crystallized the sub
stance of the great debate. shall do
no more than recall incidents-incl-
dents with somewhat of personal touch.
When Douglas came from Washington
early In July, to begin his canvass, he
found Lincoln already nominated and
with his party enthusiastically back
ing him. The first important question
was money. 1t was equally important
to both Lincoln and Douglas. Lincoln
was impoverished; Douglas had lost
the Support of the ofiiceholders. Though
he owned real estate of great prospec-
tive value, he had already incumbered
1t In the furtherance of his ambitions.
Still he was not without resources.
His personal following was n strong
enc numerically and financially. Most
likely it was lSa6wledge of that which
made Mr.. Lincoln insist, as he assured
ly did, although the fact was denied,
upon his party friends raising a cam
paign fund above 100000, and this in
clean cash. lie knew well the inutility
and futility of promises, paper or 9TH
erwise.
How Douglas Offset this sum, then
an almost unheard of one, know only
in part. He knew the fight of his life
lay ahead and was not in any way mis-
led by Lincoln's jocular saying that the
convention which had given him a sen
atorial nomination was las poor as
church mousers." One summer morn
ing the judge said to me: "If only the
Chicago people. realized the value OF
my Cottage place and Lake Calumet
property, could raise twice The money

was a sister of Mr. Willis, she was sur
prlsed and said, ITO think that l have
been reading The Home Journal for
years and did not know that N. p. Will
lis and Fanny Fern were brother and
sister,"
Passing on, he had n kind word for
Webb, Beach, Conant, Hudson, NIGEL
rath and others whose names | have
forgotten and then noted the omission
as heretofore mentioned. After ex-
planning | ventured to ask him how it
came about that he was so well &C
quainted with the fraternity in the
east. He replied: "My friend McNally of
Chicago arranged at the commencement
of the campaign to have clippings sent
me from all eastern cities with the sup
posed names of the writer's, together
with the names Of the editors conduct

Turning again to Mrs. Lincoln, he
said, as he pointed to the name of Mr..
Francis of the Troy Times, Here, Ma

referring to Captain ELLSWORTH. In
the Philadelphia list he noted the name
of John w. Eorney, remarking: 81 reck-
on he has repented. We are glad to
have him in the fold" The name
Harding" seemed to recall pleasant
recollections. Among the Pennsylva-
mia list he came to name, which | did
not catch, that seemed to attract UNI
usual interest, for he said TO his wife:
This gentleman gave me boost when
| had that vice presidential bee in my
bonnet. He was delegate"
Reaching the Boston list, he spoke
of Mr.. Green as my old Democratic
friend" Then, looking at the clock on
the mantel, he said. my hour is nearly
up, and l shall not have time to go
further" Closing the roll, he asked,
Are you going to New York by way
of Washington | answered Yes"
Then, handing me the petition, he said:
II wish you to take this to Mr., Colfax,
with my compliments. l think he will
prize 1t greatly as a memento. Tell
him | will write. He understands the
situation" Hoping to see me soon
again in Washington, both Mr.. and
Mrs. Lincoln escorted me TO the door
and bade me cordial goodby, not for
getting to send kind remenbrances to
Judge Douglas.
When l reached Washington, has
tened to call on Mr.. and Mrs. Colfax
at their modest apartment OF two
small rooms, and they were, as Mr..
Lincoln had foreseen, greatly pleased.
