CREASES GREATLY.

f Picking, Jan. 2.-In reviewing the
past year in China, it may be said
there have been no great changes.
The court has not changed, and is
showing no indication of reform.
The internal condition OF the coun-
try has improved and the general
tranquility is satisfactory. Trade, de-
spite increased taxation, the alleged
ra pacity Of the central government
and political uncertainties has been
better than in 1902.
The country has had no difficulty
in meeting it's financial obligations
|. Waterways have seen a great increase
In steam traffic. The electric light
is coming more into use in the inte-
rior There has been large sale OF
translations of foreign literature. The
native, press shows increasing knowl-
| edge Of foreign affairs.
Japanese are, now the principal in
structors Of China, and there is a
steady movement of Chinese students
to Japan. Railway construction has
made considerable progress during
the pear, notably on the Franco-Bel-
Egian line from Picking to Hankow.

DIsQUALIFYING NEGROES

Frankfort KY, Jan. 2.-The coming
session of the Kentucky general assembly
will witness one Of the bitterest fights in
the history of the commonwealth, between
republicans and democrats. on the educa-
tional qualifications of voters. A bill has
been prepared by T. B. Butler of Critten-
den county. who is said to be backed by a
large number of democratic politicians,
to disqualify every man from voting who
cannot read and write unless his ancestors
We're legal voters prior to 1857.
The bill is a direct blow at the coIored
voters and will only in rare instances af-
feet white voters should it pass. Sim
liar laws are in force in other southern
states. Republicans are alarmed because
the legislature is largely democratic
