The observant and intelligent reader must
know that the vast majority Of men who
are now attaining success in all classes OF
business in the United States are men who
come from what are called the humble
walks of life. Our public schools give OPP
portunities to the poor boy for securing the
necessary education, and our economic sys-
tenn is such that any energetic and brainy
man can succeed. Brains and energy are
the essentials to success in this country.
Wealth and social position are but small
factors in the road to distinction.

AN URGENT DUTY.

Now that convention is to be held and
new constitution framed for Virginia, one
of the mcst imperative duties that will de
volve upon tue convention will be the
adoption of such measures as will secure
to the people honest elections. When the
convention movement was being agltated
year ago its strongest advocates gave as
their most urgent reason for reforming the
organic law Of the commonwealth the ne
cessity for getting rid of fraud and cor
ruption ID elections. 1t was claimed then
that such an end could be secured by re-
stricting suffrage.
As the time approaches more nearly for
the election OF delegates and the assemb-
ling Of the convention, those who we're at
first clamoling for the Acknowledgement Of
large numbers Of citizens are becoming
doubtful Of the wisdom and propriety oil
wholesale di,franchisng. Those who were
honestly for that policy because the be-
lieved it would result in giving lis fair
elections have, upon careful consideration
of the question, in many instances, changed
their views. They have observed the
workings of such a policy in the States OF
Mississippi, Louisiana and South Carolina,
and have not failed to see that the extern
sive restriction Of suffrage in those States
has served to place in absolute control cor
rupt political rings that cheat the honest
men in their own party.
There is no longer any effort to deny
that honest elections in Virginia have long
since been unknown. That frauds upon
suffrage have brought this State into dis
repute is an acknowledged; fact and their
continued practice will destroy the moral
tone of the people, which has already been
seriously impaired.
If the Constitutional convention fails to
provide, IN .he organic law of the State,
Just and severe measures for the proven
ton OF frauds ia elections it will neglect to
perform the most important duty imposed
upon it. The effort should not be to pur-
fly elections by taking from poor but hon
est men the right to vote, but to punish
scoundrels who steal votes and commit
other frauds at elections

The people of Cuba, II they interpret
the Presidents words Alright, will be salts
fed that the United States wants nothing
of Cuba except to give her peace, security
and Independence with a guarantee Of
permanence. The Filipinos are assured
again that "the settled purpose long ago
proclaimed to afford the inhabitants Of the
island self.government as fast al they are
ready for it will be pushed with earnest.
ness and fidelity" The timely reminder
is gwen to the dissatisfied in this country
that the United States is not making war
upon the inhabitants Of the Philippine
Islands. A portion Of the lstter are max
ing war against the United States, but "by
far the greater number recognize American
sovereignty and welcome it as guarantee
of order and of security for life, property,
liberty, freedom of conscience and the
pursuit of happiness"
President Mckinley has begun his new
term under happy auspices, backed by the
cordial good will and affection Of larger
proportion of the American people than
any recent President has been able to win
to his support. He has been confronted
with difficult problems, but has never
failed to find ready solution for them.
he has steadily grown in public estimation
and respect. In one Administration he
has made magnificent record. The out
look for his eecond term is bright and re-
assuring. His second inaugural address in
it's earnest spirit. its deep religious tone
and in the felicity of its expression recalls
the memorable utterancss Of Abraham
Lincoln, and, like them, will have de-
termining influence on the judgment OF
the people.

CONTRASTS IN CIVILIZATION,
Philadelphia Press.

Philadelphia Press.
The report that documents have been
found showing that the Chinese court Off
Gals, who were carrying on the anti.for-
eign crusade last Summer, had planned to
wreak diabolicsl punishment on the for
eigners when they captured the legation ia
not improbable. On the contrary it id
altogether probable. Simply because the
Chinese have maintained a certain me-
diaevel standard of civilization for centur.
les does not mean that in many respects
they are not peculi 4rly barbarous. In fact
their callousness to suffering and their own
re6nements of cruelty are such that much
of what passes in Western lands for hu-
mansm is inexplicsble to them.
Curiously enough, though the known
differences between the general level Of
the two civilizations, those of the West and
those of China, are wholly in favor of the
Western Powers, there is disposition in
certain quartersto set the Chinese on a
pedestal because of the excuses of Euro
pean troops during the Chinese campaign.
These excuses were lsmentable enough,
but they do not change the main facts at
issue, and what they do exalt is not Chi.
nese civilization but japanese. Japanese
ideals in the FIRST place are not Chinese,
and since Japan adopted Western ways
the contrast between Japan and China lie
as broad as between any Western Power
and an Asiatic people stepped in barbar-
ism. But beyond all that the most amaz-
ing contrasts with the comparison favor
ing Japan lay between the elements of
personal restraint which japanese civiliza-
ton presented during the Chinese cam.
paign and the liberty and license that
