The petty objections that are being made
by some of the Grand Army camps to
the fact that Mr.. Bryan will visit Chicago
during the Grand Army encampment, are
rather uncalled for and out of place. II is
understood that MIR. Bryan is going TO
Chicago as the guest of that city and not
of the Grand Army, and that he will take
no part in any of the Grand Army func-
tons. In fact Mr., Bryan specifically de-
clined to go TO Chicago on the day or the
Grand Army parade because of his desire
TO offer no possible embarrassment to
President Mckinley, who will be there at
that time. 1t is not likely that anyone
save the posts that threaten to stay away
will be hurt by their action

The variegated supply of bait for suck
ers" seems inexhaustible. The United
States mail seems to be the most at
tractive medium for the specula tive swim
oilers who are hunting the man with a
little money who wants TO get rich quick.
Various devices are employed for getting
around the law against using the mails
to defraud, and one of the most inter-
esting has just come to light in New York.
A sort of love letter from Garry" to
Harry prepared on the typewriter and
telling what a good thing the firm has
in the way of making money, is sent
out, apparently to the wrong address, but
as matter of fact it falls into the hands
of the very sucker that the alleged
firm wants to catch and when he sends
in his money he parts with it forever.
1t is said the government law cannot
reach this ruse. but ID is safe plan for
the recipient of the letter to ignore the
advice that Garry" gives to Harry" ana
keep his money in his pocket.

lists in the Republican ranks. Mr.. Man.

1t appears that the whole story of the
accident 10 the battleship Oregon off the
China coast, was not told in the Of
fetal reports. According to a letter from
ore of the Oregon's petty officers to rel
atives in the United States, the rock
upon which the Oregon ran made rent
in her bottom on the port side twenty-five
feet long and about three feet wide. The
water-tight compartments failed o work
and the battl ship was pretty well flooded
from one end to the other. The pumps
proved insufficient and preparations were
made to abandon the ship. Finally the
hole in the bottom was partially patched
by a wrecking company. and after sew
eral ireffectual efforts to pull her off, the
Oregon foated off without help only to
smash right back on the same rocks
harder than before. AS before il was the
high tide which floated the great battle
ship eff the rocks. though several steam
ers had been tugging at her in vain. The
repairs to the Oregon have not yet been
completed and from the account given,
there is some doubt whether it would
have been safe fer her to have joined the
aeet at Taku in that condition, as Capt.
Wilde suggested he could do, IL called
upon.

WHAT ARE THEY GOING TO DO
ABOUT 1T.

The extraordinary riot at Akron, o.. an
account of which appeared in our dis
patches yesterday. ought TO go a long way
towards convincing the Northern people
that prejudice against negroes is not con-
fined 10 the South. and that under like
conditions a negro is just as likely TO be
lynehed in the North as in the South. In
fact, the prejudice against the negro Is
greater in the North than in the South,
and if he were as large a factor in the
population of that section as he is in that
of this section there would be more ne
groes lynched there than here.
We undertake to say that no such riots
as the one in New York last week and
the one in Akron on Wednesday could
have occurred IN the South, because, in
both OF them. there was clearly shown on
the part of the white people a bitter hatred
of the negro. When a negro commits
heinous offense-the offense for which
negro is generally lynched-in the South,
the criminal is sought. and he alone is
dealt with. There is no indiscriminate
war on the negro race In the New York
riot negroes were attacked simply because
they were negroes. Many innocent ne
groes were brutally beaten, even by the
police. The police and the populace seiz-
ed the opportunity to vent their pent-up
hatred of the black race.
In Akron the negro criminal would have
been lynched if he had been caught. If
the mob had caught any negro, however
respectable, IL would have lynched him.
1t wanted a black victim, and because it
was cheated of its desire it destroyed a
great deal of public property and killed
number of others.
The New York Sun, In its issue of last
Tuesday, commenting on the riot
in that city said: THE Southern pa
pers may reasonably demand that the
North clear it's own skirts of social dis
elimination against the negroes before it
begins TO accuse the South of the same
injustice The race prejudice is really
stronger here than there, and undoubtedly
the negro has a better place in the field
of labor in the South than in the North"
1t is a source OF satisfaction that at last
it is beginning to be recognized that all
the race prejudice is not in the South
that in fact, there is more of 1t in the
North than in the South-because, as long
as the North insisted that only in the
South was there any prejudice against the
negro there was no probability of har-
monious effort being made TO solve the
race problem. Now that the Northern
people are being made aware that they
could not get along with the negroes as
well as the Southern people do-that they
would lynch them for the crimes for
which they are lynched in the South, and
that they would not submit to having them
occupy the chief public offices-it is prob
able that there will not be a prompt at
tempt 20 punish those Southern states
which have disfranehised the negro or the
states which may disfranchise them.
The truth is, the race question is great
question. 1t is also a troublesome one. 1t
is going to be more troublesome. The
two races having equal political and civil
rights cannot get along together. The
superior race will not submit to any domi-
nation of the inferior race

perate straits. In his speech at Asbury
Park the other day, opening the cam

man Hanna evidently realizes that the
tide has turned. There is no doubt that
the Republican party has before it the
fight of its life

Though Georgia's convict system is IN
questionably the best the state has ever
had it appears there is still room for
abuses 40 which the authorities should.
and will, no doubt, give prompt and eff
fective attention. Within few weeks
two white convicts have died after re-
ceivng corporal punishment, and there is
evidence that the punishment had some
thing to do with their death
The last case was that OF n
white convict at the Ebert coun-
ty camp few days ago. lie was
found dead chained to trea, short
time after a whipping had been admins
tered. Such abuses should be made i'm
possible In Georgia's convict camps

CURRENT COMMENT.

Speaking of the trip to China of Count
Won Waldersee to take command of the
allied forces. the New York World (Dem.)
says: LAS an indication of his intentions
he has taken with him his headquarters
tent, or house. especially designed by
himself and consisting of seven rooms,
including completely furnished bath
room. This looks as if the German COM
mauder had planned an extended visit
to China. IL indicates a purpose of be-
nevolent assimilation and, of course,
wherever the German imperial flag is once
1oated it should never be hauled down.
BY virtue of his military rank Count Won
Waldersee will be in command of any
allied army which may be quartered on
Chinese soil. He should never be allow
ed to control the movements of a single
American officer or soldier"
The Philadelphia Ledger Gnd) makes
this criticism with regard to the admin
ietration's secretiveness as to Philippine
affairs: at seems clear that the United
States has a very difficult and costly
task before it in the Philippines, and
the large army now on the islands does
not appear to be large enough to 'pacify
the natives. The Philippine enterprise Is
sheer folly; but even more foolish is the
stupid attempt to mislead the public by
making false statements about the sit
uation. with the expectation that the
American people will remain in ignorance
of the actual conditions in our new do
mains. There has been a reprehenshle
lack of frankness on the part of the
authorizes in dealing with the people
during the whole Filipino business, which
only creates distrust."
The New Orleans Picayune Dem) says:
HE would be a daring man, indeed, who
would attempt to give an estimate of the
probable cotton yield at this early date
as the result will depend upon too many
things vet to happen, The most that
can be stated with any confidence is that
conditions which have prevailed from the
start do not favor even an average crop
Should the crop prove an average one II
will be I'm spite of the weather rather
than because of the meteorological con-

made such dictation possible"
