Mr.. LANDoa's CRITICISM.

The English papers generally predicting an ont
burst of indignation in the United States because OF
Mr.. Savage Landors criticism or the American soldier
looter and wanton destroyer of rare and price
less valuabes These predictions should come to
naught since it is manfestly fitting that we must rec
ognze indisputabie facts in the instances described
and accept with calmness such uulmpeachable estmo-
ny, Unfortunately have ample cause for humiIia-
ton and regret in the letter Of American mission
AIRY recently given to the press. This gentleman REV.
Gilbert Reid, writes: Nov and then branched out to
loot from those who were enemies and only re-
greet that did not have time to loot from such
despicabe wretches"
This is truly astounding exposition OF the teach
ings OF Christianity. Such sentiments would he in.
excusabe enough in the most awess OF the private
soldier in our ranks, whose shortcomings Mr. Lander
has recorded but emanating they do from one who
is characterized "a prominent American missionary
in China" they must fill his countrymen with shame
and should arouse the church whose livery he wears
to righteous indignation and swift censure
While we are making that little disciplinary tour
through the valley OF humiliation which il is right
should be our portion just now may feel cheered
and by the cordial uterances OF Mr. Fred.
eck Harrison who during his recent ysc to us found
much to commend. Washington filed him with ad-
miraton; we money mad than other
people and less than the English; our cities are
decent than those of Europe and best OF a the
relations Of sexes here ARE far more sound and
pure than they in the old world AS to our espe-
cia problems he believes there is zeal enough here for
learning, Justice and humanity to solve them
So let us take heart of grace. Even though our
missionaries have emuated our soldery in the pre-
cepts and practices of barbarians as regards the
eighth commandment. yet may retrieve these
things and exemplify the virtues and justice and hui
mantty with which our kindly critic credits US.

LABOR VS.. CAPITAL.

The same old neverendng battle that has been
waged since first man began to accumulate wealth,
whether that wealth consisted Of hatchets and
works OF art scrbed on the tusk of behemoth, or
whether today it consists Of stocks and bonds in
dvidendpayng enterprises The battle that has never
ended and never win end until the dawn OF the milen,

The subject Of arbitration is being agitated by
solution of all difficulties. The idea advanced is
that the board of arbitration shall consist of five per
sons, two of whom are to be chosen by the employees
and two by the employers the fifth be appointed by
the State AT first sight this would appear be most
fair proposition but second and more careful analysts
OF it shows TO be altogether wrong and impossible Of
accomplishing the end desired.
The capitalists would choose two highly educated
whom they owned to represent their trade the
State would appoint third Whom the employees
would appoint would be wholly inmateral for before
the arbitration committee had gone into session it
would have been purchased at least majority OF it
would, nlocd, bones and breeches, and the working
is not such fool but that he would see it.
All Of the above is pure logic but logical deductions
frequently one into a bind alley, and in what we
have said thus far there appears solution Of the
difficulty.
The one solution, and that, We regret to say, APP

worker and employer to draw closer together Let the
worker live clean, wholesome life, which will make
him fit and pleasant associate for any man how.

responding period Of last year when the total mileage
went TO 1854 1t 1850 in the like period of 1899 1lS

to the construction OF railway mileage during

struction this year having to their credit about 1900

Oklahoma comes second with 2S1 miles and Georgia
third with los miles. The great Central Western
States Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan Indiana and Ohio.
ali together have built but 81 miles In eleven Of the
fortynine States and Territores-namely. Maine New
Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts. Rhode Island,
Connecticut New Jersey, Delaware, Nebraska, North
Dakota and South Dakotano track has been laid thus
far and with the exception of the Dakotas very
little If any is in prospect for the of the year.
while of the thrtyeight States in the table Idaho Kan
sas, Oregon, Utah and Virginia barely get in with a
single line each, and almost no mileage.
The lead of the South this year in railway mile
age is not unexpected It is recognized fact that Of
all parts of the country South is developing
rapidly and has by far the best prospects That Texas
should show development in this line than any
