Admiral Rodgers on the New York and the gunboat Yorktown have ar rived at Yokohama These vessels will be joined by the guuboat Bennington, the cruiser New Orleans having already ar rived at Yokohama.

con.ur Stowe Resigns.

WASHINGTON, July 9--The resignas ton of James G. Stowe, United States consul general to Cape Town, has been received at the state department. The resignation was based on the utter made quacy of the salary of the post. The cost of living in South Africa under normal conditions is exceedingly high, and in time of war such as has prevailed for the past two years the $3,000 salary allowed by congress for the United States consul general would not defray the cost of maintaining family in modest condi- tions at Cape Town. The United States consul general is the worse salaried con sular officer at the Cape. MT. Stowe was appointed from Kansas City. The vacan- cy has not yet been filled.

AGAINST ANARCHY.

Senator Burrows's bill providing for
the exclusion or deportation of alien
anarchists is comrnendable move in
the direction of the suppression Of
anarchy in This country and should rc-
ccive unanimous Senate support.
The spirit animaiing the measure was
justly aroused by the assassination Of
the late President Mckinley The mur-
der-cuit OF which CZolgosZ was the TOOL
has come into existence in this country
through an American liberation due 10
the national mwillingness to impose
severe conditions upon free speech or
upon Immigrants. Anarchists came 10
the United States as TO a haven OF
refuge. Once here. they began plotting
against this Government as they do
against all government.
The enactment of some such rule as
that proposed in the Burrows hill il
necessary. The enactment nf further
laws TO provide for tho adequate punish
ment of anarchists asSassinating or at
tempting TO aSsassinatc representatives
Of established order in this country is
equally necessary. The Fif'y-seventh
Congress owes this high duty Ia the
American people. Anarchy in the
United States must he crushed.

THE HOLIDAY TRADE.

Rapidly increasing ihrongs of shop
perS in the downtown retail district in
licate To the thoughtful observer that
the holiday rush has already begun
and that il promises this year to break
all records in the volume Of trade trans
acted.
There is excellent justification for
such an achievement. The year now
drawing to 81 close has been an excep-
Iionally prosperous year. Employer
and employe alike have shared in the
general prosperity. Official trade re
ports have shown steadily a growth Of
business astonishing even in SO solid
and progressive city as ST. Lonis.
Bank cicaranccs each week have more
than supported the glowing reports of
merchants and manufacturers.
When people are prosperous and hap
by the holiday season finds them glad
and eager purchasers in the downtown
stores. There IS nOthin. remarkable
therefore. in the fact that the buying
has already begun. Neither is it strange
that the big retail stores Are ready for
such business. offering the biggest and
most widely varied stocks yet known to
the holiday trade. The christmas
rush of 1901 promises TO he memorable
in extent and duration. y year of un
examplcd prosperity is producing legiti-
mate results.

ARKANSAS.

4 recent report OF the Census Bureau
gives the ;abulatiOn Of the general sta.
,istics relating to Arkansas. During the
past few years the energy of the people
has been awakened in various ways.
There has been a large influx of popula-
ton, until now the State boasts 1.311,
5s4 inhabitants. a gain Of over 16 per
cent during the last decade. The dis
coyery of large wealth underground, the
realization of the fruit possibilities and
fields for manufactures have added to
the spirit of progress.
Fifty years ago Arkansas had 2G9,S9i
Inhabitants. Only S42, or four-teuths Of
/ per cent. of these were engaged in
manufacturing. as compared with o.
501, or . per cent Of the total popula-
tion, at the present day. The assessed
valLe of the real estate has increased
from $17,372,52 to S12S0S4.G67. The
gross value Of manufactured products
has jumped from $537.90S in 1850 to

There Is n" desire 10 inflict Injustice on

industries. They are the masters of

they needed protection from foreign
competition has long since gone by.
Nevertheless. the Republican party IS

plain that the Fifty-seventh Congress

GROWING SCRAP PILE.

In the campaign of 1898 the street
railway consolidation was not contem-
plated, as far as Judge Priest or his
then clients knew.
If 1t had been. Judge Priests opinion
would have been that the city could
give all needed legislation. The State
Legislature would not have been con-
sidered. especially as an early de-
cision on the powers Of the city in the
premises was expected from the SUI
preme Court. The decision justified this
legal view. 1t was Republicans who
consolidated the street railways.
Judge Priest had been in previous
campaigns liberal contributor to the
party. He has been since. Most of the
money he collected at the request OF the
State Committee in 1898 was from men
who We're not. and are not now, inter-
ested in quasi-puhlic corporations.
This is Judge Priests statement. And
