with the result that it is valuable and
instructive book.
There is an especially interesting pas
sage in the first part OF this work, which
brings into strong relief the undercurrent
OF Anglo-Saxon unity that ran between
America s greatest patriot, George Wash
ington, and our British cousins, even at
bitterly. This was shown when the Con-
tinenial Congress made a plan by which
a French army was to De brought over
by Lafayette to invade Canada. The final
arrangement of plans were left to Ben
jamin Franklin, who was then enjoying
life il the gay Partisan capital, and it
was not until all the preli1ninaries had
been settled that the Congress referred
the matter to George Washington. There
upon,'' says MIR. Foster, washington.
wrote Congress a long letter strongly dis
approving the plan as impracticable and
unwise, and suggested that before COM
municating with Franklin, he should
have personal interview with Congress.
the result was that the expedition was
entirely, though reluctantly, given up
Washington assigned many military rea-
sons why the plan was unwise, but he
found one insurmountable objection.
This he wrote is the Introduction of
large body of French troops into Canada
and putting them in possession OF the
capital of that province, attached to them
by the ties of blood, habits, manner, re-
ligion and former conception of govern
ment I feared this would be too great
a temptation to be resisted by any power
actuated by the common 1naxims Of
national policy
No one could impeach Washinston's
patriotism, but it appears to US that this
slight incident shows how much even pa
triotism is to be guided by good sense when
dealing with strong national prejudices
and affiliations. The rapid growth Of the
Trench people and the French language
in Canada even to-day, despite its En-
glish occupation for a century and quar-
ter, can leave but little room to doubt
that this country would have sooner or
later had to provide a standing army and
grow IN under the same strangling Sys-
tenn OF military expense that has retarded
the growth of continental nations so
much had we had the French for our
neishbors and not the English. Washing
ton was an expansionist, but where his
own people could not expand he wished
to see those of his own blood and politi-
ca! ideas, and his wisdom has been justi-
fed by the events.

The Alleged HazinE.

Editor Of The Times:
Sir,-The communications in late issues
of your paper signed Citizen in the one
instance, and Another Citizen in the
other. show very plainly that the writers
know but little Of the Virginia Military
Institute, it's usages and customs. The
so-callcd 'hazing" done there is a matter
IT very mucl less consequence than these
citizens seem to think. That this is SO
is proven by the fact that a very large
proportion of the men in each class year
after year are the brothers, sons and kins-
men of former cadets. Surely, knowing
the school as the Alumni do, it is not
reasonable that they would allow their
own flesh and blood to enter If these lat
ter would come to any serious harm in
the fourth class year
This writer, after experiencing the (sup-
posed and full maltreatment to which
these critics allude, sent first his brother,
and more lately his son to be victims Of
the same savage custom, and he hopes
to send still another son in year or two.
The V. NJ. I. is all right. Outsiders do
not know the facts. but are like our
Northern citizens who think they know
something of the negro Nearly all the
outcry heard at this s-ason of the year
as to the woes of the new cadets is
made because a. few boys are sent to
Lexington too immature for such work
and discipline as are met with there. Some
of them ''spoilt Children" before ever
leaving home. There is no Nursery De-
partmenu maintained up there, surely

Synonymous with good citizenship, con-
corning themselves SO much with saving
men for Heaven that they have done
far less than they ought to have done to
save men for the duties of earth. They

MIR. ROOTS SPEECH.

The speech made at Canton, Ohio, last
week by Hon. Elihu Root Secretary of
War, was the fullest, clearest, and most
comprehensive presentation of the Philip
pine question that we have seen Mr.
Roots speech was frank and the state
ments' which he made are SUPPORTED, he
claims, by the authentic records of the
country. The Secretary of War possesses
exceptional advantages for making a
speech of this character because most of
the records which he has employed are in
the department of the government under
his control, and SO he has sources of in
formation which are not accessible to the
public at large. Being a man of ability
he knows how to make effective use of the
material in hand
Mr.. Root gives a fair account of the
manner in which the Philippines fell into
our hands and he substantiates every
statement that he makes by record evil
dence. According to this evidence there
never was a more Infamous record of
treachery. deceit and ingratitude than is
to be found in the part played by Agni-
naldo and his fellow conspirators. 1t is
shown by documents written by Aguinaldo
and bearing his signature that when he
left Hong Kong on Dewey's ships, to go
to Manila, he and his associates, though
processing to Dewey that they were going
there to aid the United States Government
in setting up a government that would
preserve law and order in the islands,
had already matured a plan to betray the
United States and set up a governmental
machine of their own independent of and
entirely hostile to the United States. It
is also shown, by documents equally au-
thentic, that Aguinaldo plotted the attack
upon our forces at Manila before the
Spanish treaty was ratified by the Senate
in the most cold blooded secret, treacher-
Gus manner possible, and simply forced us
to fight or to have our soldiers murdered
without resistance. The war was, there
FORE commenced by Aguinaldo. whilst he
was protesting friendship for the United
Statss,and a. desire to aid the United States
III its Efforts TO set up a government in
the Philippine Islands that would afford
protecuon 10 tne uVeS, IOerueS ana prop
erty Of all, and. from the moment he made
his reacherous attack upon our forces,
he has kept up his war, forcing upon US
the alternative of fighting and subduing
him or of ANONYMOUSLY flying from the
islands and leaving them the scene Of
confusion. riot ana anarchy.
We sympathize with those who honestly
believe that the Fflipinos should have a
government of their own, but when it
comes to lionizing Aguinaldo as a great
patriot and grand hero, ne cannot join
in the cry.

Growing Old.

A little more gray in the lessening hair
Each day as the years go by;
A little more STOPPING of the form,
A little more dim the eye.
A little more falterng Of the step
AS We tread LIES pathway DER.
But a little nearer every day
To the ones who have gone before.
A little more halting of the gait,
And a dullness of the ear;
A growing WEAKNESS of the frame
With each swift-passirg year.
a fading of hopes, and ambitions, too,
A faltering in life's quest;
But a little nearer every day
To a sweet and peaceful! rest.
A little more loneliness in life
AS the dear ones pass away;
A bigger claim on the heavenly land
With every passing day.
a little farther from toll and care,
A little less way to roam;
A drawing near to a peaceful voyage
And happy welcome home.

SIR ROBERT HART ON THE BOX
Frs FUTURE.

There has been no English speaking
man since Chinese Gordon who was as
well qualified to judge Of the currents Of
Chinese life and hidden springs that move
that inscrl1table people as Sir Robert Hart,
partment
Sir Robert Hart was originally placed
I'm charge Of the British interests of Chin
csc custom duties at the time when the
revenue from that source was pledged to
the Governments that entered Pekin in
us60. After the debt was paid the Chin
csc Government was so Impressed with
the honesty and efficiency of Sir Robert
that it placed him In charge of the whole
department as a Chinese official. In that
capacity he has served faithfully and
wisely, and as an official who was trusted
and respected he has had exceptional OPP
portuntties for studying the Temperament
of the Chinese race.
His words are, therefore, entitled to the
utmost weight, and his opinions are not
TO be disregarded when he speaks of the
Chinese It seems to us that the re-
wulsion of feeling, caused by the escape
of the legations and the success of the
allied forces in the march on Pekin. has
produced a sense Of superiority in the
minds Of the Caucasian races that may
prove to be fearfuly overestimated.
Suppose Sir Robert Hart is right, and we
would rather have his opinion on the
Boxer question than the opinions of ten
thousand globe trotters, special CORE
Epondents and glorified geographers of
the dilettante type of Lord Curzon. what
will the English, Russians. Germans, and
French do when fifty million Chinese,
maddened with hate Of foreigners, armed
with modern arms, trained IN modern
tactics, begin the world old crusade Of
China for the Chinese?
1t is very easy in the comfortable seclu-
sion Of on editorial sanctum in London or
Paris to say to Sir Robert: --Oh, You are
suffering from nervous strain, and so
you ,lnintentionally distort the facts before
YOU" But the question is: docs he over
estimate the growing sense of nationality
I'm China2''
We cannot answer the question, nor
anyone else.
This much certainly is clear: that there
Is in the Chinese nation an adaptability
and energy that is almost Incompetent
tsible. There are unnumbered multitu5es
of men who will cheerfully die if they
can thereby harm the foreigner, and back
behind it all is the restless movements of
a vast people who are just beginning to
feel the need Of national life and national
aims and are every day falling more
under the sway Of the idea of being q
world power. If these inchoate yearnings.
find a definite outlet, II the wandering out
preaks are focused on one point. if the
grievances OF he Boxers become The
wrongs Of the nation, II the advanced
party goes forward for China and not
Tor the dynasty. we will see such men
as has not been since Genghis Khan
piled his pyramid of Ssp.ueo human heads.
In that day. and it may we'll come. Sir
Robert Hart viii he laaded to he skies
as a prophet by the very papers that
to-day call him a pessimistic dreamer.
