sense"
III. The Secretary of State to the Fren Ii
Charge 'Afaires-Sent to Mr.. Thebaut,
October 10, 1900.
Memorandum in response to the mcmorai-
DUN in regard to the bases and conduct
of negotiations for settlement of pedd-
ing questions between the Powers and
China delivered to the Secretary OF State
by the French Charge d'Atfaires October
IL. 1901
1.-The Government of the United
States is gratified to learn that all the
interested powers have adhered to the
essential principle Of the French note
of October 4, and trusts that such
reservations as they have suggested
will, like those mentioned in the re-
ply OF the United States. prove no en-
barrassment to the progress of the ne
gotiation, in the course of which they
can be frankly discussed with view to
common agreement.
Holding. as 1t does in accord with
the French Government, that the es-
sential thing now is to prove to the
Chinese Government that the powers
are ready to meet 1t in the path of
peaceful negotiation. and that they are
united in their repeatedly declared de-
cision to respect the integrity of
China and the independence of its
Government, while equally united in
the resolve to obtain rightful satisfac-
ton for the great wrongs they and
their nationals have suffered, this Gov
eminent has Instructed its Minister
in Pekin to concur in presenting to the
Chinese plenipotentiaries the points
upon which We are agreed as the initial
step toward negotiations and toward
the re-establ;shment OF the effective
power and authority of the Imperial
Government.
1.-The Government OF the United
States believes that the happy influ
ence upon the determinations of the
Chinese Emperor and of his Govern
ment which the Government of the
French Republic anticipates as the
result of this step would be still fur
Their induced IL the powers were to in
clude as part OF their initial decIara-
ton collective manifestation of
their determination to preserve the
territorial integrity and the adminis-
trative entirety of China, and to Sc
cure, for the Chinese nation and for
themselves. the benefits of open and
equal commercial intercourse between
the Chinese Empire and the world at
large.

C21ifaT Removal.

Editor News am pleased to see
the News take such a fine stand
against the Capital removal question.
Cannot the ''pIain people," the tax
payers, see the purely selfish motive
that is behind all this ill-timed agita-
ton? Some would-be leaders are
never satisfied unless they can stir up
strife and contention, Just so the peo-
pie pay the bills.
This calling the present Capitol an
cold rOOkory," and saying it is unsafe,
is the veriest nonsense. It's very ap-
pearance denotes a massive strength
not to be found in any other public
building in the State. 1t was built
when contractors were honest and
labor more reliable. Its massive
walls and immense porticos are as
enduring as the hill on which it
rests.
We sincerely trust that majority
OF the taxpayers will unite and re-
tain the Capitol where it is-a Capt.
tol so appropriately named, so init
mately associated with endearing
rccOllectiOns of heroic past upon
the beautiful and everlasting hills of
old Leon.-H. S. Williams, in the
Cocoa Rockledge News, October IL,

Great Change ofisentiment.

The Washington Post after a COL
umn of estimates On the electoral
college, comes to the conclusion that
after all, the elections hinges on New
York. Either candidate may be
elected without New. York, but the
chances are overwhelmingly in favor
Of the candidate who secures that
States electoral vote. The Post
marveIs that a ST. te, which four
years ago, gave SUCH an overwheIm-
ingly Mckinley majority should now
be considered close, 4nd says:
"When it is reaIize;i, however, that
both kentucky and Maryland, may
go Democratic, it will be seen that
even the addition of Wyoming,
which is likely to :go Republican,
would not save Mckinley. The sit
uation, therefore, resolves itself, in
our opinion, into the question of how
New York will caBt It's electoral
vote. Figure as you may, arrange
the States in any mi nner that may
seem most probable, fhe chances still
remain that the Candidate who re-
ceives the eIectOraH vote of New
York will be successful. And this
one fact, IN itself, CONSTITUTES the
most unique feature of the cam
paign. When it Is, for a moment,
admitted that the rel ult of the elec-
ton hinges upon New York, State
which gave a maiotity Of 2GS,UOO
for Mckinley four y ears ago, re-
markable change in p rbIic sentiment
is recognized. 1t is IL e fact, that his
reversal has occurred in some de
gree, at least, ana that political
landSlides are not III in2wn in New
York, which gives mi certainty to the
outcome, anxiety to Ihe Republican
leaders, and hope to ! le followers oi

Baby Asleep.

Esther, Youngest child of Mr.. and
Mrs. Il. Dickinson, was born May
18th, 1898, and died September 4th,
1900. She was sick only short
while. Three days before she died
she suffered intensely; but, Oh, what
a patient little sufferer, never muir
muring, only at times when the pain
was so severe. She would say, ooh!
Lawdy, have mercy OH me-" and so
soon he did. Like a little flower,
our baby was transplanted out of
this world of sorrow into the beauti-
full beyond All that loving hands
could do, was done for my darling.
For it was a pleasure for each one to
do something for her. She was our
little pet. How much we miss that
sweet little voice, none can tell. For
one of her age she was a remarkable
child, nothing was too hard for her
to learn. Any song she heard sung,
she could memOr;ze words and also
the tune, and things she heard the
children say she would tell them 81
tan say dat too" Her favOrite re-
liglous songs were, CAT the Cross, :"
and ELeaning on the Everlasting
i Arms" and she sung many others.
! 1t was her delight to come to her
grandmOther'S and have me rock and
sing to her the songs she loved so
well. Eyerytime, she would say,
thttle amtie, sing "Eaning on de
fedder aSting arms" While | do not
wish her back, it seems as though |
would rejoice to hear those sweet
Elittle lips speak those words again.
EShe is singing this morning with the
iangels ia Paradise. Sleep on sweet
baby until the resurrection morn,
then we hope to meet you.
SEQ now sweet our baby looks as she lies,
with frinoed lids closing heI dark blue eyes:
One pale palm pressed close to her side
i And her dear little lips parted since she died.
Dear little feet that are now so still.
iOu will never walk in the paths OF Ill,
/ Those pale little lips are also still
30 much against her loved ones will.
Keep. D Father. that baby brow,
Until she inheritS her beautiful crown.

| Safely into the better land.
