THE UNITED STATES IN CHINA

What is to be the policy of the
United States in China? This question
has been uppermost in the minds of all
who are interested in public affairs,
at least since the convention at Phila.
delphia completed its work. Men OF
Bryan's cast, to be consistent, Cannot
help but side with the Boxers, in their
fight against foreigners. They re-
present the patriotism, the national
spirit, of China, and of course, since
the in flow of foreigners in China has
been nothing short OF "criminal
aggression" the Boxers have the right
aud the Bryan party must take their
side.
But when we como to look at the
deeper aspects of the matter, we see,
besides'a desire on the part Of the
Chinese to keep foreigners out OF the
country and kill off those who
are in, a firm determination ON the
part of Russia and other European
nations to seizs the territory OF the
Chinese empire, and divide 1t up into
colonial dependencies of the various
powers.
The fight of the Boxers Is against
western civilization. 1t is against the
Christian religion. It is against the
ideas OF government represented by the
English and the Americans. It can
not be denied either that Russia
has got firm hold on the Chinese rul-
ing powers. The Chinese can under
sand the Russian spirit. that OF
unscrupulous monarchical suppression
within and aggression without, and
they do not offer any effective resist
ance to the steady inroad OF the Rus
SLAMS into their territory.
Russia has an immense advantage
in having secured concessions for the
transatlantic railway. Russia will
push her imperial railway through
the heart of China, to reach splendid
harbor on the Pacific, n Chinese ter
ritory. This is not for the good of
China, it is needless to say, but for
the aggrandizement of the Russian
empire.
II Russia should secure absolute con-
troll over China or the larger part of
it, the result would be that every

EVERY intelligent American knows
that q secret alliance. such as has been
so frequently alleged to exist by the
Bryanites between the United States
and Great Britain, is an impossibility.
No agreement is of any force unless 1t
Is bound by treaty, and 40 treaty can
hold unless 1t ia ratified by two-:hirds
of the senate. The opponents of the
administration would take care that the
country knew all about any ''secrst
alliance"

The quickest and surest way to the
recovery of lost health, is by the use of
that radical and rational remedy, DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Dis
eases which originate in the stomach
must be cured through the stomach. A
host of chronic sufferers who had "doc-
tored" for years for a diseased heart,
liver or spleen, have at last used Golden
Medical Discovery" for the blood, stom-
ach and organs of digestion and nutri-
ton, and found a perfect cure of the
hitherto incurable ailments. The most
convincing argument for a trial of the
Golden Medical Discovery" is that it
has cured so many people "given up"
by the doctors.
There is no alcohol, cocaine, opium
or other narcotic in Golden Medical

FOR UNIFORM LEGISLATION
The Movement to Apply the system to
Bills and Notes

At a meeting OF the Bankers Associa-
ton held few days ago In this city Hon.
Charles E. Libby delivered an address
by re quest on subject which is OF great
Interest to the bu siness men CT this state.
1t will be remem bered that Mr.. Libby is
one of the three commissioners from
Maine appointed for the puposs OF confer
ring with the commissioners OF other
STATES to bring about Uniform system OF
laws in the several states, of this coun-
try. While the laws Of the several states
pertaining to commercial affairs are OF
the same general character they differ In
some important particulars and this
causes q great deal OF unnecessary trouble
to business men. For instance an effort Is
being made to bring about uniform sys-
tam OF weights and measures In all the
states,a uniform system OF laws relati ng
to wills, to divorce, to marriage and many
o Their things,
Four or five years ago these commits
sioners from the several states at their
meeting held in connection with the
American Bar Association adopted a
uniform act relating to bills and notes.
This act was reported by MIR. Libby to the
legislature of 1897 and referred to the jul
dietary committee. Owing to the fact that
there seemed to be some opposition
manifested towards 1t by people who did
not thoroughly understand Its Importance
the judiciary committee referred 1t TO
the succeeding Legislature and two years
ago the judiciary committee again re-
ferred it TO the Legislature which meets
this year.
This act relating to negotiable paper
has already been adopted by 10 states ana
by Congress for the District of Columbia.
Its Importance to the bankers OF Maine
was fully realized when Mr.. Libby
brought the matter before them and they
will endeavor to secure the passage OF the
act at the coming legislative session. The
proposed act differs but little from the
present Maine law on the subject but In
some minor matters 1t Is little different.

sang "Oid Black joe for plantation

poem OF Paul Laurence Dunbar, and
made tiattering ending to the after

NO RACING AT RIGBY.

The time for the annual meeting OF the

Burnham, Jr., and the heirs OF Weston
II. Milliken. Rigby's gate was not
opened this year, ana the chances are IL
won be disturbed for at least two years
more.
Speaking OF Kigby's gloomy outlook, a
well known horseman said; "You can
set IL down as certainty that there VIII
be no horse racing over that track next
season. Several parties were In CORES
ponuence with the directors last sum

come to terms. There was q chance OF
finding customer for the track next
year, but the jig 10 all up now.
without pool selling it would be inn
impossible TO run a trotting meeting
there, and OF course Sam Pearson as
sheriff wouldn't think OF allowing pool
selling to be going on under his nose.
Whatever prospect there might have been
for selling Rigpy or running 1t next sea-
son was upset when Pearson was elected
sheriff. 1t is too bad to have such an ele-
giant trotting course going TO waste, but
there is no remedy for 1t now."
