Anarchy has won it's first suc-

Harrison will close the schools.
He will shut out the poor. But

he will have 10000 more shoulder

will make him Mayor for life.
No night schools for the poor

He allows $4,000 a year in fees to

consoles the poor with anarchistic
referendum talk.

THE ATTITUDE OF FRANCE.

Paris. March 25.-In the Chamber Of Deputies
to-day NJ. Cochin. OF the Right party ques-
toned the government regarding the scope OF
the Franco Russian agreement IN the Far East
asking how far France was bound thereby. and
whether her obligations extended elsewhere In
Asia and Africa. The Foreign Minister. NJ
Delcasse. replied:
In order that France shall take action in the
way foreseen in the last paragrap ph Of the agree
ment, the integrity OF China must be impaired
and her development hindered in such a manner
as to create danger 70 Frances own interests.
Hesitation on the part OF great power under
such circumstances would be equivalent 10 abdi-
cation NJ Cochin sees particular peril in the
north OF China, but the storm might possibly
burst IN the south
The truth is that all the powers are equally
interested in China remaining independent and
open TO the free competition Of the minds and
capital Of the entire world. We do not find In
the Far East rival forces. but cooperation OF
forces toward the common aim-the rnainte-
nance OF the statu quo and general peace.
NJ. Cochin expressed regret that NJ. Delcass4
was not more explicit on the subject OF French
obligations under the agreement. The Cham
Der satisfied with the minister's explana-
ton and proceeded with other business.
