CURRENT COMMENT.

The New York Evening Post Qnd) says:
1.-THE new wine of expansion is putting the
old bottles of proteotionism to a terrible
test Senator Lodge is evidently overcome
by the Intoxicating effect of the new doc
trines, and not content with his recent
proclamation of war, he now expatiates
on the coming of free trade. He rhapso-
dies over the growth of our commerce
with Hawaii which is, of course due to
our abolition of the duty on Hawaiian SUI
gar, and declares that he looks for equally
rapid improvement in our trade with Porto
Rico and the Philippines. Undoubtedly
there would be prodigious improvement
In that trade were our protective duties
abolished. We could have an immense
trade with Cuba and with the rest of the
world on those terms. But Senator Lodge
will have to be careful not to frighten the
protected interests by declaring this policy
too openly"
The New York Tribune Rep) says:
Great Britain keeps right on sending
troops TO South Africa by tens of thous-
ands just as though the campaign were
only beginning instead of drawing to a tri-
umphant close. That is partly of course,
to make sure of having plenty of men on
hand for any possible emergency. But
there is another reason, and perhaps a
stronger one, Tor IL. Great Britain means
TO take advantage of this war for the mil
itarizins, so to speak, of the whole nation.
Every man who enlists for South Africa
now becomes a soldier. and adds to the
effective and expert force Great Britain
will henceforth have at call in case OF
other need The great fighting race OF
the world is getting Its fighting blood up
and putting itself into fighting trim"
The PHILADELPHIA. Record DemO saws:
1.-THE productive capacity OF the Southern
states has been only so far developed as
to battle estimate but the fringe, or out
line, has been made apparent. The cotton
crop of ten or eleven million bales, worth
from three hundred millions to. four hun
bred millions of dollars, could all be raised
in the single state of Texas, If necessary.
Not per cent. of the cotton growing land
has yet been planted. The capacity for
mineral production is equally a matter of
the future, The South Is a storehouse OF
untouched wealth"
The Chicago Times-Herald says: "As
the twelfth census viii be the most inn
portant and comprehensive picture of our
national life and growth ever prepared by
the government IL should also be the most
accurate, and the way TO insure its ac-
curacy is for every citizen to cooperate
with the enumerators to that end and to
answer faithfully and truthfully every
inquiry propounded. Every family or
household should compile brief census
Of its own on the points mentioned above
to aid the enumerators in their task

THE cROwIyG sOUTH.

In a lending article on Trade Expan-
sion in the South" the Philadelphia In
quirer says; Commerce has turned its
eyes to the South. No section Of the
country is at the present time showing
such resistless energy and nervous
strength. such indomitable determina-
ton to meet the commercial problems of
the day intelligently. and such willing
ness to adapt its methods to the condi-
lions that confront the country" There
is much truth in the foregoing. The
South is just beginning to realize APP
parentIy the greatness of her resources
and the possibilities within her reach for
building up vast commercial and manu-
featuring interests. Her great crop, cot
ton, brings her big returns, but 1t can
be made TO bring her many times as
much as II does. She is beginning to I'M
derstand this, and that is why cotton
mills are being built near the cotton
fields Many more mills have been built
within the last twelve months in the
Southern States than in the same number
of months at any previous time in their
history Unless all signs fail the build
ing of cote n mills will be continued until
there win be enough Of them to manu-
facture the bulk of the cotton crop.
The manufactured cotton will bring to
her several times as much as the raw
material does now, and this additional
capital will be employed in other kinds
of manufacturing. Her immense mineral
resources will be developed, and the iron
and steel plants of Alabama and Ten
nessee will rival those of Pennsylvania.
Her fields and the mills will make a
commerce that will be as great, If not
greater, than that Of the East 1t will,
of course take time to do all of this. but
her growth in wealth having once fairly
begun will be rapid. She has a popula-
ton differsn MT from that of any other sec
ton of the country. 1t is a population
that is almost purely native American,
and it is capable of accomplishing great
things when the way is open for it to dis
play its energy and strength. The way
is opening now. The South is only just
beginning to accumulate the wealth that
is necessary for the building up of great
manufacturing and commercial interests.
The young men are here-genuine young
Americans, possessing all the qualities
necessary for the upbuilding of coun-
try-and now that capital is accommodating
it may be reasonably expected that the
growth of the South in material wealth
will be one of the wonderful things of
the century soon to begin.
There is confidence in the South's fu-
ture. Otherwise capital would not be
seeking investment within her limits. To-
day, in this city, will be celebrated the
completion Of great railroad system, in
which a vast amount of money has been
invested. Those who are interested in this
enterprise have faith in the South's fu-
ture, and they will not be disappointed.

Congress is going to afford paper users
no relief from the paper trust. Pub

Here is a sample of Candidate Ignatius
Donnellys wit: IF the Lord had taken
an inch off Mr.. Bryan's jawbone and
placed it between his temples, he might
have been President of the United States
1t may be remarked incidentally that Mr.
Bryan's chances for being President are
several million times better than Mr.. Dom
nely's are for being Vice President. Pre-
sumably, therefore, something is radically
wrong with the proportions of Donnelly's

THE "BoxERv MOVEMENT IN CHINA

The Boxer" movement in China has
assumed such proportions as to cause the
question to be asked whether 1t does not
Is developing, apparently, into a revolu-
ton. 1t had it's origin in an agitation
against foreign influences and interests,
and 1t was supposed to be favorable to
the Manchu dynasty There are reasons
for thinking that 1t was encouraged by
the Dowager Empress, who is the real
power in the government. At first there
were attacks here and there on mission
aries. but lately hostility against all
Christians has become very marked and
a number of Christian families have been
massaered. The outrages have become SO
numerous, and the lives and property of
foreigners so greatly endangered, that
some of the Powers have ordered war YES
sells to Chinese ports nearest the seat of
the trouble and, according to our dis
patches yesterday, guards have been
landed at Shanghai from British French,
Russian and japanese war ships.
In the neighborhood of Pekln, the con-
dition of affairs is alarming. Although
the fanatical Boxers are not provided
with arms, they do not stand in awe OF
the imperial troops. Indeed. the troops
appear to be in sympathy with them. 1t
is alleged that many of the soldiers have
openly Joined the Boxers"
On Wednesday the government issued an
edict prohibiting the Boxers organiza-
ton, under penalty of death. 1t was SO
worded, however, that 1t seemed an ex-
cuse for the movement of the Boxers"
rather than a condemnation of 1t. 1t is
safe to say that it will not be productive
of any good results. AS a matter of fact
the government appears to be too weak
to cope with the movement. Both the
army and navy of China are in a very
disorganized condition. The Boxers"
therefore, are having everything pretty
much their own way.
1t is question as to how long the Pow
ers will submit to having their interests
In China jeopardized. If they are COM
PEELED to protect their interests with
force, they may take steps that will lead
eventually to the ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the
empire. 1t Is evident that they do not
intend to abandon the policy that has been
adopted of opening up China to commerce.
They will not permit themselves to be
driven out of the country by the Boxers"
or any other organization. They want the
trade of China, and they will have 1t.
even though it becomes necessary for
them to exercise far greater authority In
that empire than they have yet attempted
to do.

The famous old schooner yacht Gray
ling has been burned at Greenport. L. I.
In her day, which was not so very long
ago. the Grayling was one of the fastest
and finest craft of the New York Yacht
Club, but of late she has been so badly
outclassed that her usefulness as a racer
has been at an end. Owing to his af-
fection for the old yacht, her owner, Mr..
Fish, would never consent for her 10 be-
come a fishers boat, so he sold her fit
tings for song with the proviso that
the hull and spars be burned. The fisher
folks of Long Island could not under
stand the sentiment which prompted Mr..
Fish to sacrifice the craft, but then they
never owned a racing yacht and sailed
her for trophies.

It is understood that Senator Fairbanks
Of indiana, has been decided upon to write
the antitrust plank OF the Philadelphia
platform. The plank will probably be
upon the lines of the bill introduced into
the House recently by Mr.. Ray of New
York. providing for a constitutional
amendment. 1t is pretty generally ac-
cepted that the Ray bill Is bluff, intro
dueed for campaign purposes solely.

Certain French interests, 1t is said, are
alarmed at the popularity that is being
won by dishes made from corn in the
American Germ kitchen at the Paris Ex-
position, and are exerting themselves TO
discredit the grain as human food. Among
the stories being given circulation is one
TO the effect that in Italy the use of
maize Cor CORN causes a disease called
pellagra. Thomas Medical Dictionary
says this is a skin disease common in
certain parts of Italy, but does not sug-
gest the eating of corn as cause of it.
In this part CT the world some of the
healthiest. hardest, strongest, longest
lived men and women are those who eat
corn in some shape three times day,
who eat wheat hardly oftener than once
or twice a week, and who probably never
see rye at all. 1t is probably something
else than corn which causes the Italians
to have pellagra
