III reply to a correspondent OF a North
ern newspaper that the Governor of Vir-
ginia and the Governor of Pennsylvania
were treated with scant courtesy" on
their visit to Charleston. the News anu
Courier puts In a vigorous denial. It
says:
The two Governors expressed their en-
tire satisfaction with their treat ment.
while here They were given two recep-
tons; they were told OF the deep regret
of Governor insolvency that he could
not be present because of serious illness
in his family: they were welcomed by
the Mayor OF the city at their headquar-s
tiers, and the committees appointed by
the Exposition stuck to the very pleas
ant task assigned them until the visitors
left the city. The Governor of Virginia.
requested that he and his party should
not be met at the train on their arrival,
and a member Of the Virginia commits
sion to the Pan-American Exposition
says that the Governor and his party hal
received great deal more attention in
Charleston than the Governor of Vir-
einia received at Buffalo. And as for the
Governor of Pennsylvania, his own state
monts prove that the Richmond CORE

SENATOR DANIELS VIEW.

We are not surprised that Senator Dan
lei has publicly declared himself in favor.
OF submitting the new Constitution to the
fun vote OF the people, for we had heard
him SO declare himself. Senator Daniel
understood at the Norfolk Convention and
subsequently IN the canvass that the new
instrument was to be submitted to the
existing electorate And he thinks that
the people generally SO understood it.
But the Senator says very frankly that,
as the pledge Of submission to the people
was made as to the Constitution" and
not as to a part of the Constitution, the
performance should be as broad and full
as the pledge
In other words, Senator Daniel brings
the question squarely down to submission
to the whole people or proclamation.
There is no escape, as we see 1t. from
that conclusion. It will not be a per-
Torrance of the contract, a fulfllment of
the pledge, to proclaim a part and submit
a part; and this is true whether there
be Temporary or permanent procla-
maticn of the suffrage clause.
Just here let us inquire what is meant
by a Temporary proclamation of the
suffrage clause? it means. as we under
stand, that the suffrage clause will be
proclaimed and will remain in force by
virtue OF such proclamation until the new
electorate has been determined upon and
elected 1t will be merely tentative.
Then the whole Constitution, suffrage
clause and all, will be submitted to the
vote of the new electorate. If carried the
suffrage clause will become permanent
il defeated that will be the end Of it.
Eut be it well noted that those who are
most CONCERNED, those who will be de-
prived of their vote if the temporary"
suffrage clause is made permanent, will
not be permitted to vote on this ques-
ton which SO Intimately concerns them
What sort of Satisfaction" will they
get? What sort OF redemption of the
pledge will that be? We do not be-
lieve that the convention will follow any
such course Delegate Wysor says that
he will not and Senator Daniel says tina,
he will not. It is either submission to
the whole people or proclamation. Which
shall it be? That is the question to dis
cuss.

FOR EDUCATION.

A large numbeF of Richmond people.
headed by the Governor of the State, will
go down to Hampton to-day by special
invitation of the mana cement Of the Nor
nal School Of that place to meet Mr.. Rob
ert c. Ogden and a number of distin-
suished educators from, the North, who
are interesting themselves in the broad
subject of national education. Mr.. og-
den and his associates will visit Rich
,nond in the evening and a public recep-
ton will be rendered them, after which
they go further South to visit educa-
tional centres, and especially to attend
the meeting at Athens. Georgia, of the
Southern Education Board.
The Philadelphia Evening Telegram an
pounces in this connection that John D.
Rockefeller has given one million dollars
to the cause Of popular education in the
South, and we understand that other rich
men at the North will contribute large
SIMS of money to the fund which it is
proposed to raise. This money is to be
used, if used at all, to forward the work
which is already being done by the public
school systems in the various States, and
it is the intention and desire of the con-
tributors and of all the men gagged in
the movement tc work in harmony with
the State and county authorities. They
take a broad view of the subject of edu-
cation. Their view is as broad as the
nationals broad as the needs Of the ma
ton. They believe that the nation is
to be benefited by education and that tic
better the people are educated the better
our citizenship will be. They believe IN
educating the masses. They believe IN
edr,ca ting from the bottom upward. And
they are right. for the republic II 1t IS
to stand, must rest upon the plain people
as foundation.
1t is a noble and philanthropic work
that these men are doing, and we are
sratified that such a cordial reception will
be rendered them in Virginia. Our rep
resentative men and women will meet
them to-day and greet them and confer
with them and give them assurance that
they are welcome and that their aid will
be received as graciously as it Is prof.
fered, and in the same spirit.

The American Army.

Lord Wolseley, commander-in-chief
of the British army, having charac-
terized the American soldier as the
model soldier Of the world-in q letter
to the commandant at West Point-hss
found, TO his annoyance, that John Bull
will tolerate no other expression Of
opinion than that which gives to his
red coats the unquestioned palm Of su-
periority. But John Bull, showing
through the guise of an indignant
Briton, who asked Lord Wolseley as to
the truth OF the statement attributed
to him, has found that his commander
in-chief has opinions Of his own, and
British aristocracy has been shocked to
the point of collapse by the opinion of
Lord Wolseley that the American army
is better ofiicered, better equipped and
better managed than the army of any
other state. There Is reason In se-
lection of officers as in roasting OF eggs.
The American officer comes from the
people and is Of the people-whether he
comes from West Point, from the field
of battle or from civil life-while the
British officer comes rom q class, may
even purchase his commission, and
goes to the front or gets q soft berth,
according to the strength OF his con-
nections among the aristocracy of the
empire.
Between the two armies there can be
no question of courage, but there can
be, and there are, questions OF morals,
of intelligence, Of capacity TO think and
of exercising the capacity. The British
soldier is, perhaps, less of machine
than his brother of Germany, who, in
his turn, Is even less q machine than
his brother of Russia, but the fact re-
mains that the soldier OF q kingdom or
of an empire becomes q machine upon
enlistment and remains machine until
the end. 1t is otherwise with the
American soldier. He Is an intelligen,
fighter and he thinks always within
the bound of discipline, but he thinks,
nevertheless, and is anything but ma.
chine. Therein Is the solid foundation
for the eulogy pronounced upon him by
the distinguished commander-in-chiet
of the armies Of Great Britain.-Cin
cinnati Tribune.

DEFENDS THE AMERICANS.
A German Writer at Manila Dis.
cusses the War Methods in
the Philippines.

Berlin, Sept. IA correspondent OF
the Frankfurter Zeitung, writing from
Manila, replies to the charges of cru
city on the part of the American army
appearing in European newspapers. He
says:
"Perhaps no other nation except the
United States would have had the pa
thence to meet the stubborn resistance
of the Filipinos in Samar for two long
years with such humanity as, upon the
whole, has been the case. IL is not TO
be wondered at that the American lead
ers finally let their gall run over at the
treacherous tricks played upon them
and adopted sharper measures OF
course, some excesses occurred, but 1t
IS highly inadmissible to select these
few cases and serve them to the public
as typical of American warmaking."
The correspondent also emphasizes
the injustice of expecting Americans to
observe In every case the rules of civ
ilized warfare while fighting such u
foe.

shrewdness, combined with moderation,
of making surrendered insurgent OIL

writer in Ainslee,s Magazlne

A writer in Ainslee's Magazine
tells this story; "Our government al
lowed several transports with returning
volunteers TO stop at y Iokohama, aud so
hundreds of American soldiers visited
that city and Toxic. One OF the men
hired bicycle, and was taking ride
about the streets OF Yokohama when he
ran down an elderly Japanese man.
The soldier rang his bell several times,
but the Japanese Dan apparently paid
no attention to IL, and the American
found himself promptly arrested and
and taken to court, where he was fined
10 yen ts5). He protested that he had
done everything possible to avert the
accident, and asked why the man made
no attempt to get out Of the way. The
policeman then told him that the man
was blind. The soldier looked dazed
for minute, then felt in his pocket and
brought out q ten dollar bill. Here, ,
he said, it's the last I've got, but he
can have it, and he turned it over to
the blind man. The Japanese were
deeply touched, and that same day
delegation of policemen hunted up
the soldier and gave him back his fine. "
