Of the work she and Miss Morriil nave
been doing.
Early last evening Major John M.
Gould, father Of Miss Gould, received the
following dispatch from Rev. Charles IL.
Daniels, former pastor OF the Second
Parish Congregational church Of this city
who has for several years been the secre-
tary of the American Board of Foreign
Missions: Report just received from
Washington announces all safe at Pao
Ting Fu." The despatch was dated from
Boston which Is the home Office Of the
mission. II of course gave much relief to
Major and Mrs. Goold and their many
friends.
My daughter left her home in Porte
land In 49," said Major Gould, and she
has not returned since. She went out
with Miss Morrill, for a term Of ten years
and is expected home at the expiration of
that time. She Is very much interested
in her work and has accomplished much
good We have received letters from her
right along, the last one coming under
date of April 20. At that time she wrot-
that there was great trouble with the
Boxers, and that the project of the town,
which corresponds to the position OF
mayor of an Americans city, had ordered
all of the missionaries not to go outside
of the city. Soldiers had been placed
around the missionaries Sin order to pro-
tect them.
'.Besides my daughter and Miss Morrill,
the other missionaries of the American
board who are at Pao Ting Flu are Mr. and
Mrs. George IL. Ewing. who are from
Massachusetts, and Mr.. Horace +. Pit
kins, who is from Ohio DIR. and Mrs.
Noble, who have been stationed at that
place are now at their home In Massachu-
sets There are also Mt Pao Ting Flu u
Presbyterian mission, China-English
mission and Roman Catholic mission
q Miss Gould is thirty-two years of age,
and Is the only daughter of Major and
Mrs. Gould. There are two younger sons.
Miss Gould Is member of the Bethel
Congregational church of this city, and
Miss Morrill, is u member of the Second
Parish Congregational church.
Miss Morrill, went to China In 1882.
She became interested in the mission
work at the Second Parish church where
she taught Chinese class for a time and
finally her desire TO go to China to work
among the Chinese women was realized.
She came home about three years ago and
remained for year and u half to regain
her health. Both of these young women
are very much beloved in Portland and
their many friends here are hoping that
no harm may BETA II them.
DIR. and Mrs. Perkins have not been
heard of for some time. 1t is supposed
that they are safely located at Tien Tsin
now.
The news that came last night that one
hundred marines had been ordered to
Pekin from Manila may mean that a
Portland man win see something of the
Boxer troubles. Lieutenant william IL.
Clifford, Jr., of the U. 5. Marine corps
is stationed at Cavite and it may be that
his company may be the one selected to
go to China.

Postmaster Arment received a letter
the first of the week from the secretary
of the Cincinnati Geological Co., asking z
for information regarding American anti

BY the way. what is to become of the
negro is yet problem not alone in soci-
o1ogy but in sovereign government. This
race problem is yet an enigma. How far
will the negro become involved should the
congress of the United States determine e
the status of congressional representation
upon the vote alone which controls and
influences the southern states? The dis
franchisement of the negroes in the south
may have its local advantages, but it in
wolves far greater things than race pre-
iudice manifested in local concern. Ballot
box stuffing, negro acknowledgements and
the train of circumstances which follow
these great ,,surpations of the rights of
sovereignty, cannot be permitted long
without redress. Congress will question
the right of member to seat in that
body if that members credentials have
been obtained through fraud and the eX-
ercise of unwarranted power.
Old questions under new forms and

twenty-five years ago the sunburnt
faces of the American people in the tenn
perate zone was observed beyond the east
line of the Mississippi river. This line
is gradually changing westward, and its

more moisture and climatic changes.
Twenty-Five years ago the tanned face of
the Missourian was prevalent. In twenty
five years more the Kansan in freckled
