seas and graciously help us 70 carry

The Methodist church has done much in
the building up of This great nation. We
make similar conception to other
churches. But our purpose is to Impress
Methodist people with what God has
wrought through their churches. and
moves them 20 a practical appreciation OF
their present opportunity to furnish
equipment for greater work in the new
century which has dawned so auspicious-
ly upon us.
The Methodist church has grown in
this country in hundred years from a
few thousand to an actual membership OF
six and half millions. Great RESPONSE
bility is upon her. To meet this respon-
sibility she must educate. l am glad our
Governor and Legislature will do so much
for educaton-esp specially for the common
schools of the State. But the churches,
TOO must educate. UNCONVENTIONAL col
leges and universities should be so amply
endowed as 10 enable them to offer the
highest courses in science and in all
learning. Thus only can we hope to send
out men who in the Legislatures of the
world will write the laws of God upon the
statute books of the nation and other
men to preach to- the world who will
efficiently tell Christ's love TO every crea-
lure Thus only can We hope to refutc
the claims of Materialsm, and use the
wealth of the world 10 life up fallen hui
manity, to better conditions and put
heart into the most needy. This is the
demand of Almighty God upon His church.
and the eternal salvation of the rich and
the poor alike is in the balance.

, were not sufficient ground for impeach-
ment. And now, gentlemen. as ! have
asked mercy for these men, I'll show
mercy and now cut my speech off,
thank you for your attention
Mr.. Petree (Rep). of Stokes, spoke TO
the same effect. He did not think there
had been zone single particle of evil
dence adduced before this body to show
that these great judges had erred,
knowingly and cOrruptly
Here Mr.. Petree paid a tribute OF

in the case. from his point of view.
The only question of fact in the

court wilfully and corruptly issued the
writ of mandamus in Whites case. The
presumtion of innocence follows us all
until the contrary is proven.
He argued that this had not been
proved.
NO crime has been committed; no
law has been violated
AT the expiration Of Mr.. Blythe S
time he announced that the would pre-
pare and send forward a written pro-
test against the passage of the resolu-
ton.
Mr.. Mastin. RepD. of Wilkes, said
that he had hoped to make some re-
marks on the question before the

time Of his side had prevented it.
Mr. Alexander. of Rutherford. was
the first speaker on the Democratic side.
He spoke briefly but strongly in favor
of impeachment.
Mr.. White, of Halifax, was the next
speaker. He favored Impeachment.
Concluding his remarks, he said:
IF White was entitled to his office
he was entitled to his salary. Nobody
denies that. but there was right way
to get it and wrong way. They chose
the wrong way"
Mr.. Morphew. of Mcdowell, next
spoke. He thought the judges ought to
be impeached. He said:
when l read in the constitution that
the Legislature shall hold the purse
string and when | see from the evil
dence in this case that these judges
have unlocked the door of the treas
ury, i can come to but one conclusion,
and that is that these judges ought to
be impeached."
1t was now 12:45 o'clock. and only one

WARNING AGAINST AMERICA
PROF, sUEss PREDICTS COMMERCIAL
AGGRESSION By Us.
China, Russia and This Country, He
Thinks, VIII Be the "Three
Units"

VIENNA. August 22.-Prof. Edward
Suess, the eminent publicist and paleon-
tologist, has given an interview respecting
the Industrial and political preponderance
of the United States that attracts much
attention especially as 1t confirms the anti
American views of continental manufac-
turers and economists.
The professor surveying international re-
1ations from the standpoint of political
philosopher, observes that while the French
revolution was occasioned by the abuses of
the privileged classes, the present stua-
tion has been caused by revolution of
material conditions. The declining national
sentiment should be replaced by move
ment for the common defense of the CEN
trail European states against the American
trusts, which are moving to conquer the
foreign markets more surely than they
could be conquered by battle ships. The
American balance of trade has reached an
unparalleled figure. 1t was serious ques-
tion If the present political units of central
Europe were strong enough to make an
effective defense, taking into account the
physical conditions. The present shifting
OF the center of gravity of the world s
forces would create three great units
China, Russia and America. When China
was equipped with railroads the people
would find that she had the most capable
merchants and the cheapest labor. Russia
would have the largest army and be the
greatest peasant state. European capital
would flow to the United States and would
be an important increase of her economic
prosperity.
OF the three the United States had de-
cidedly the lead. It's policy was commerciaI
aggression beyond doubt, and states like
the American union and Russia had gained
far more in the way of the mobilization of
thelr powers from the construction of rail-

TEGELER'S CASE.
Sentence Suspended Pending an Ap-
peal.

Sentence Suspended Pending an APP
peal.
Mr.. Hackett, the acting secretary Of the
navy, has decided to suspend sentence,
pending an appeal, in the case Of Robert @.
Tegeler, the coal passer In the navy who
was recently sentenced by naval court
martial to serve three months of military
Imprisonment for having disobeyed orders
issued by Lieutenant Commander Sher-
burne G. Hopkins of the District Naval Mi
Htia. Mr.. Hackett's action was taken af-
ter thorough consideration Of the case,
Attorney Classic, for Tegeler, having SUBJ
mitted a brief In the matter and Mr.. Hop
kins also having handed to the department
a statement of facts in connection with
the case. The reason for suspending SEN
tence was that the Court of Appeals does
not convene for some time. and that IL
Tegeler were obliged to serve his sentence
pending the appeal he would probably COM
plete his term before a decision was
reached by the higher court. 1t Is pointed
out that the Court Of Appeals may reverse
the decision rendered by Justice Clabaugh
denying Tegelers right to a writ of habeas
corpus designed to secure his permanent
release.
Under the rules Of the department one
month would be deducted from the SEN
tence In the event OF good behavior. Tege-
Ter will return to the performance of his
duties in the navy pending the disposition
of the appeal He has been In the custody
of Major Wood of the Marine Corps.

RESTRAINT OF CHINESE.

Their Emigration to Mexico Through
This Country to Be Guarded.
The determination Of the Treasury De-
partment to take advantage Of the. author
ity given by the Chinese exclusion act to
regulate the transit through the United
States of Chinese emigrants bound for
other countries was today officially brought
to the attention of the Chinese legation.
The occasion presented itself when an at
tache of the legation called upon Assistant
Secretary Taylor to lay before him mes
sage received from the Chinese consul at
San Francisco conveying the information
that Chinese destined for Mexico had been
refused the privilege Of landing at that
port. Mr.. Taylor told the attache that the
department had become convinced that
most Of the Chinese who had gone into
Mexico In the past two or three years had
smuggled themselves back across the bor-
der into the United States. He therefore
announced that hereafter the department
would refuse landing permission to Chinese
bound for Mexico unless it could be abso-
Iutely satisfied Of their good faith.

PROPOSED GERMAN TARIFF.
Consul General Mason Sets Forth Its
Features.

Features.
The State Department has received from
Consul General Mason at Berlin q long re-
port setting forth in detail the features of
the proposed new German tariff. which will
most materially affect United States prod
ucts. By far the most important Of these
Is noted in the advances Of from 30 to 800
per cent in the rates on food materials,
meats and live animals. The present
treaty rate on wheat of 81 cents would be
increased under the new bill to $1.54 per
100 Kilograms. The United States sent
46S933 metric tons of this commodity to
Germany last year.
As to American manufactures, the most
notable advances made by the new bill are
In the rates on bicycles and shoes. An
American bicycle weighing about twenty
two pounds would pay $3.57t import duty
instead OF about a.25, as at present Shoes
would pay about double their present rate.
Mr.. Mason states that public discussion
OF the tariff measure is confined to two
points-the alleged inadequacy of the pro-
posed duties on manufactured products and
the effect which the heavy advances in the
rates on food products materials will have
upon the non-agricultural population Of
Germany.
