The st. Louis police have found ten
pounds of dynamite in a house occu-
pied by two of the striking motormen.
and some persons are unkind enough
to conclude that these men are inter-
ested in ~dynamiting the street cars.
A supposition of this sort is very I'M
just and should o be entertained
for a moment. The men no doubt in
tended to use the dynamite in some
scientific experiments, and even if
such were moi the case. the fact that
they belonged to the union ought to
absolve them from suspicion. We
must not forget that Mr.. Mahon and
the other strike leaders are all
opposed to violence or lawlessness of
any sort. even if they do counsel the
strikers to ''Make the running of these
as expensive to the Transit Com
pany as you can" Oh: no these
strikers would not dynamite the street
cars: perish the thought.

a Chicago tea importer who has
lived in China for some years, and
is familiar with the people says: II
think that the object of this Boxer"
uprising Is a just one, to drive out
the foreigners. although | cannot APP
prove of the methods they are using.
It's like this: Germany selects IA
coast territory which she calls her
sphere of interest. England. France
arid Russia do the same. Each nation
tries 10 dominate the territory upon
which It has settled. and is waiting its
chance to take absolute possession of
the land. What they have done. what
they are doing, and what they have in
their hearts to do is nothing more
than land-grabbing, ont and out
thievery. And while we are taught to
regard missionaries IA heroic men
and women who are sacrificing them
selves TO save others, yet it must be
admitted hat even if they themselves
DO not seize land. they prepare the
way for lan~d-grabbing on the part Of
the nations from which they come
$3.50 | would like to see the
Chinaman succeed, if it a be done
without bringing on war, for he is in
the right"
The Cape Girardeau Democrat. (Cape Girardeau, Mo.) 1876-1909, 1900-06-23

For q typical christian view, COM
mend US to the following from Bishop
CranstOn: SIT is worth while that the
condition which exists in China to-day
was created, if by it We can establish
christianity throughout that great
land. 1t is worth any cost in mony,
it is worth any cost in bloOdshed, il
we can make the millions of Chinese
true and intelligent christians. l
would cut all the red tape in the world
and break all the treaties ever made
to place the armies of the United
States in the fore. next to Great
Britain's." OF course a little thing
like breaking a few treaties would no,
stand in the way of christians like the
Bishop. if a few s~o-called heathens
could be converted.

Since the Inauguration of Mckinley
As President of the United States, the
Democratic press of the country has
held up Hanna as the principal man
of the administration, and has repre-.
sented Mckinley as a sort of side
show. The whole thing has been
Hanna. Hanna controlled Mckinley
and everything else, and merely had
to intimate his desires in order to
have them backed up by the Presi-
dent. In view of all this it is strange
that a Democratic paper like the Re-
public would be willing to admit that
Mckinley made Hanna abandon his
fight on Roosevelt. People should
try to be consistent.
The Cape Girardeau Democrat. (Cape Girardeau, Mo.) 1876-1909, 1900-06-23

The expected has happened. After
holding out for several weeks in their
unreasonable demands, the st. Louis
strikers have made the Transit Com
pany a proposition which embraces
practically what the company offered
them two or three weeks ago. AS the
places of the strikers are now filled,
the company of course cannot con
slider the propositions submitted.
When the thing has all cooled down
the only perceptible result the striker 9
have accomplished will be that they
have worked themselves out of a job.
The Cape Girardeau Democrat. (Cape Girardeau, Mo.) 1876-1909, 1900-06-23

The DEMOCRAT desires to give Mr..
Monopoly a friendly tip. This paper
does not know him but he certainly
exists and he should be warned that
according to a manifesto issued by the
ST. Louis strikers, IAN exhibit
ton of the solidarity of labor is
about to be given that will shake
monopoly everywhere to its founda-
TONS" Monopoly should be just a
little prudent.
The Cape Girardeau Democrat. (Cape Girardeau, Mo.) 1876-1909, 1900-06-23

While there can be no doubt about
the result of the presidential campaign
this year, still from the surface indi-
cations one must conclude that the
two great parties intend putting up d
most glorious fight. The Republic
cans, while fully confident of victory
will strive to make this victory no n
binary one. The Democrats will put
in their best ticks to keep McKinley's
majority down to a reasonable figure,
but they will not succeed even in do
ing this.

| it is no longer denied that some Of the
beet works have closed or materially
reduced force. The demand for men,
heavy goods falls much below expecta-
lions vita partially different causes the
cotton goods market reports a similar
| position. The Fall River committee
has made a sudden reduction to PSF
cents in the price Of regular print
cloths with not single sale recorded.
Nor are new demands reported import
ant. But neither the sudden reduction
| in prints nor the quiet settling in
prices OF staple goods mas stimulated
| the market to desired activity. De-
preston in the market for goods did
not prevent raw cotton from advancing
| to ten cents.
The boot and shoe industry makes
slow progress. Most local works have
closed or are about to close. though
western producers have little better
business than eastern. 1t is thought
/ jobbers will soon begin orders for fall.
The shipments fall far behind last
years, amounting in four weeks to
313,494 cases, against 400,S73 last year
and 39it csc in 1898, while in most
other years the quantity has been
| about $4,000 cases. Leather holders
complain of too little business to make
market and with some concessions in
closing out, declines of one cent in
rough hemlock, half cent in glove
grain and one cent in number one buff
| are reported. Hides at Chicago are
also little weaker.
