Minister WI.


Mr.. Wu's lOng-rumoredr recall
has at last been received to the
loss of our entertainment, says
the Worlds Work. He used his
Oriental guilelessness with the
highest skill as an oratOrical and
diplomatic device. He welcOmely
took liberties, both official and
personal, that no other minister
could have taken. He knew that
we knew that he knew better,
but he soon found out that we
liked him, and he amused him.
self with us while he entertained
us. For, shrewd philosopher
that he is. he got more fun even
than we got from the game he
played. From the eminence of
his immemorial civilization how
he enjoyed his ridicule of our
cruder life! He pricked out
bubbles before our faces, and
while we smiled at him, he roared
at US. He was himself equal to
whole nation of Americans
orators, diplomats, ways, news
papers and all-when the game
was a game of badinage between
civilizations. And so guileless
was his manner that we APP
plauded him when he insulted
US. Thus he became d privileged
person. Behind the part that
he played as wag was his Sc
rious work, and he established a
claim to the lasting gratitude of
civilization. Secretary Hay used
him, as he was willing to be
used, to the greatest advantage.
The picture of an Oriental di-
plOmatist rushing in an autOmO-
bile at an unconventional hour to
the Department of State with an
assuring telegram from Picking,
when all the world had given up
hope of the besieged Legations
there, will never be forgotten by
any man who saw it or even read
of it. A very remarkable man is
this great Chinaman who served
all civilized mankind at that try
ing time in the most delicate and
loyal way. And no minister was
ever placed in more difficult
position. He proved himself
, true to Western civilization, anC
, Western civilization will not for
get him, and it will follow him ir

up with gratitude and all gooc
wishes.

school houses may be built all over the

easily put into execution and involving the
annual expenditure of only 10000, by the
State.
The present State debt, far under the
constitutional limit, will fall due and be
subject to re-bonding in about eleven
years.
Our proposal is to submit amendment
to the Constitution by the next legislature,
to be voted upon by the people for the
issuance of 100000 in bonds. to be
known as Special Public School Bonds,

men to make your books who
have clear thought, who write

the political thought of the

MORNING TRAIN
TO New Orleans Cor the
Local Passenger Traffic.

A recent issue of the New Or
leans Item contains the follow
ing information:
"A new local train from La
fayette to New Orleans is among
the possibilities of the near flu
ture.
THE officials of the Southern
Pacific have under consideration
a proposition looking toward an
improved local service from that
city:
convenience to people along the
line of the Southern Pacific, as it
will make it possible for them to
spend the day in New Orleans
and return home at Il reasonable
hour at night. At present the
only local train between these
points leaves Lafayette at 1882
a. M, while the new train will
leave there about a. M, ar
irving in New Orleans at IL
O'Clock and, returning, will leave
here at ) p. m.
Mr.. Decker, local district
passenger agent of the Southern
result in bringing much trade to
New Orleans. giving the people
of that section an opportunity to
spend the day here shopping
and sightseeing, then going
home at either or $40 p. m"
A train such as is mentioned
in the foregoing would be OF
great service to the people be
tween Lafayette and New Or
leans, particularly to those en-
gagged in mercantile affairs ano
who do business with New Or
leans merchants. 1t SeeDoS tt
us that New Orleans is very
much interested in this move
ment. An early morning loca
train run according to the pro
posed schedule would doubles:
prove to be great inducemen
to country merchants anC
planters who have business re
lations with New Orleans. Nov
that that city appears to bt
reaching out for trade it cOult
not do better than direct it:
energies to improve the railwa.
facilities of the country district
of the State. 1t is well-knOw1
that a great deal of the business
which belongs to New Orlean
goes elsewhere to seek more ad
vantageous conditions. Thi
should not be. New Orleans i
the natural commercial cente
of the South. Excepting New
York, it has the best location
from a business standpoint o.

is really astonishing that
should permit less favored rival

almost within it's own gates an
carry away business which
could control by very little exel
ton.
