Senator Pettigrew, of South
Dakota, who all through the first
session of the present Congress
was a thorn in the side of the Re-
publicans and is sincerely hated by
them, has a way of expressing his
views in language that is as vigor-
Gus as it is pointed. A few day ago
he was interviewed in New York
on the Chinese situation and his
solution Of the. problem SO far as
this country is concerned is summed
up in the following words: Call
home our missionaries" The Sena-
tor maintains, and thousands Of
Americans will agree with him that
"the missionaries have no business
in China and should be withdrawn,
because for one thing they are not
converting any Cinnamon. The
Chinese have their own philosophy,
religion and moral code as we have.
The work of the missionaries is in
this country. AS for the legations,
I do not believe they are in danger.
l have lived in Pekin myself, and
know the conditions. All our news
of the situation passes through
English channels, and the oppor-
tunity is just what England has
been waiting for to work up a
popular feeling and drag the United
States into the situation in China. |
believe these stories are absolute
falsifcations. believe the United
States should send no troops what

as the one being built at Shreve
port. The work of constructing tn,
Monroe mill is about as far ad
vanced as in Shreveport.
At High Shoals, N. c., an enter
prising town in the middle portion
of the State, not far from the Soutl
Carolina line, located in the foo
hills of the mountainous region
Mr.. Tompkins is putting up a cot
ton mill that is to cost when com
pleted 100000.
At Laurinburg, N. c., he is put
ting up a cotton mill that is to cos
$15O,O0O. This town is about 1O(
miles west of Wilmington. Some
time ago he erected a cotton mil
there at exactly the same cost as the
one now being built, which is in
reality simply an addition to the
existing mill, exactly doubling its
capacity. The mill that is now
completed had only been in opera.
ton one month when the stock
holders determined to enlarge it, the
earning capacity Of the plant being
so very excellent and satisfactory.
He is building another mill at
Thompson, Ga, which is about
forty miles north of Augusta. This
cotton plant is to cost $4,000. 1t
is expected that this mill will be
ready for operation within another
month.
A mill is being built at Colombia,
Ala, at the cost of 100000. It is
now about as far advanced in con-
struction as the mill at Shreveport
and the one at Monroe.
Mr.. Tompkins' firm is now busily
engaged in building the textile
school for the State of Mississippi,
which is being located at Starkville,
Miss, in the northeastern part of
the State, near Colombus. 1t is to
cost $40, 900 and is to be in connec-
tion with the State A. and M. Col
lege. The plans for the building
of this school were accepted by the
board in charge of this school only
yesterday. Work will begin on the
construction right away.
Mr.. Thompkins is now building
cotton seed oil mills at Bamberg,
S. c., Tennille, Ga, and at Pendle-
ton, S. G. He is also building a
cctton mill at Eaton, g., at a cost
of $75, 200.
It can easily be ascertained from
all the vast amount of work which
this eminent engineer and contrac-
tor is now carrying on that he is in
every way an authority on the
subject of cotton and cotton seed
oil manufactures. Mr.. Tompkins
stated this morning that he did not
see much hope for an appropriation
from the State Legislature for the
Louisiana textile school, as all the
money the exchecquer of the State
at this time had been ap-
propriated, according to the infor-
nation he had received. He is sure,
however, that the State could do
nothing more wise or beneficial
than to provide for the establish
ment Of a textile school along the
lines that have been proposed by
the promoters of the scheme.
If the school is not established
now he is certain that it will be in
the very near future, for the reason
that the interests and the cotton
industries of the State will demand
it, or else the State will fall behind
her sister Southern States in the
race for manufacturing supremacy.

VALUE OF ORATORY.
Eloquent Flights Are Not of ms Much
Use Before Juries aH
Plain Fiuency.

In an address before the Irish Lit
erary society on John Philpot Cur
ran," Lord Russell of Killowen, the
chief justice. declared the value of ora
tory TO lawyer is oyerrated. He as
serted that it is an important vehicle
for argument and for the enunciation
and enforcement of great principles.
But" he said, there is tendency to
run to seed in this regard, and to look
upon fluency of speech as if it were
oratory." Gifts Of speech could never
attain to their real momentum and
power until founded upon substratum
of carefully acquired knowledge and
upon solid argument. The opinion of
the lord chief justice is that of most
men who have considered the subject.
The art of oratorcal flights is less prac-
ticed, not so much because men are
less able to make such speeches, but
because they have lost their value.
They are of slight use before juries and
of no use with judges. There is pop
ular disposition to distrust the man
who makes too great display OF his
gifts of speech when he makes an ad-
dress. The public. being more en-
lightened, has come to weigh argu-
ments more carefully. When the ora
tor is able - sppsA - the passion Of

pendent on man; occupying a subordi-
nate position in the church; restrained

lines; an absolute nonenity in politics.
To-day American women are cnvied
by those of other nations, and stand
comparatively free individuals, with
.he exception of political disabilities.
During the so years which have
wrought this revolution, Miss Anthony
Is the one woman in all the world who
has given every day of her time, every
dollar of her money, every power OF
her being, to secure these results. She
was impelled to this work from no per-
.onal grievance, but solely through q
deep sense of the injustice which, or
every side, she saw perpetrated against
her sex, and which she determined 10
combat. Never for one short hour has
the cause of woman been forgotten
or put aside for any other object.
Never a single tie has been formed,
either of affection or business, which
would interfere with this supreme pur-
pose. Never a speech has been given,
trip taken, visit made, letter
written in all this half century of her
efforts that has not been done direct
" in the interest Of this one object.

money is entirely their own now to do
with as they please, but do not know,
or will not admit, that the statutes
which guarantee this independence
were passed by the efforts of Miss An
thony and her compeers.
That they may express in some small
degree their appreciation of Miss An
thongs life Of self-sacrificing labor, in
their behalf, the women have arranged
this celebration to take place upon her
eightieth birthday.

ity. A committee appointed for this
purpose is making preparations for a

Harriet Taylor Upton, Ohio; May
Wright Sewall, Indiana; Mary B. Clay,
Kentucky; Emily NJ. Gross, Illinois;

Prominent women representing all

their greetings. and express their
sense OF recognition of what her la

efforts. There is not woman to-day,
no matter what her position, who has
touched any of the really vital issues
of life, who has not been helped to
some degree by the efforts Of Miss An
thony and her compeers.
This celebration will follow the close
