At a meeting of the Sumter

ti0ns were passed calling upon

the chief organizers to pleage

In letter to Mr. j. K. Black
man, editor of the GreenvllIe
News, Senator John l. McLaurin
gives some very timely and inter
esting information rs to the man

and the amount paid by each gov
srnment. Most of the figures are
official, being taken from the re-
port of the commissioner of navi-

eign nations foot up S26, 355, ,66l.
Inc Uniteo States Is now paying
S99S, ,2ll annually. In his coms
munication, Senator McLaurin
does not attempt any argument;
but contents himself with Il bare
statement Of the facts. The stu
alton liz which he leaves some of
the South Carolina politicians is
interesting. 1t is like this DO
we want a merchant marine of our
own, or do we prefer to continue
paying freight bills to foreigners
If we want merchant marine Of
our own, can we reasonably expect
to build up such an enterprise in
competition with the subsidized
foreign concerns without paying
subsidies ourselves !! If the for
eigners find it to their advantage
to shbsidize their ships ia order
to put them in a position to carry
our freights, would it MT pay us
to give equal or greater subsidies
and carry our freights ourselves?
There may be, as some of our
contemporaries claim, a "Repub-
lican steal' in this ship subsidy
idea; but to our view it looks more
like a plain case of business, in
which we are allowing the foreign
ers to get the better of us. York

Colonel Prior of Victoria complain
ed that map of the Dominion shown
at the Paris fair gave the Alaska
boundary as contended for by the

be sent to Glasgow. The point which
Mr. Prior complained of was at Clar-
ence channel. Sir Wilfrid Laurier,
the premier, in reply, said that Can
ada claimed that the boundary ran up
the Clarence channel. The treaty said
in so many words the Portland canal,
but there was a difference of opinion
between the Americans and the Ca
nadians as to where the channel was.
Canada claimed it was west of Pearse
island. Americans claimed it was OBJ
servatory inlet.

Movement for Extensive Opening of
China to General Trade.
Washington, May Sit has devel-
oped that the movement for the ex-
tensive opening of China to foreign
trade and commerce has the active ap-
proval, not only of the United States
and several other powers, but also of
Chinese officials. About the only
doubt as to the formal position of Chi
ma is that caused by the empress
dowager's recent creation of council
Of state. How far this council will
have authority to check the action of
the peace plenipotentiaries~is not yet
clear, but the negotiations are. pro-
ceeding with the prospect of uniting
the various branches of Chinese au-
thority in support of the present plan.
The attitude of Russia also is the
source of some solicitude, although the
negotiations are being so framed as
to obviate any objection which Russia
might raise If the opening of COM
merce were to apply principally to
Manchuria.

that he would not receive him at the
