The Prospect of Mediation.

The foreign minister of France, M. Delcasse, than whom no one is better informed, expresses the opinion that efforts at mediation in the Far East are now futile. This means that Rus sia will not accept the American prop osition looking to a conference under the rules of The Hague, nor any other proposition involving mediation. Rus sia will first endeavor to gain her lost prestige, hoping to defeat the Japan ese both on land and sea. Not until she is once more defeated on both will she listen to mediation.
 The truth is, any intermeddling on our part at present would be undesir- able. A peace that does not settle the matter at issue, and that, too, thor oughly is not desirable. It would sim ply postpone an inevitable struggle, and it is better to fight out the issue now and for all time. Either Japan or Russia must dominate Manchuria. Both cannot stay in Manchuria. There is room for but one. If Russia stays there Japan ceases to be one of the powers of the world. She ceases to be independent in even the Japan sea.
 The good offices of the United States are not wanted at present, and they will not be demanded, or ac- cepted, until one or the other of the contestants wins control of both Ko- req and Manchuria. The war must go on horrible as the slaughter is and heavy as the drain is upon their re- spective resources.

Inhn A. Inhnson. Goyernor-eIect.

The democrats of Minnesota, aided by other good people, have elected John A. Johnson governor of that state. His father, who was born in Sweden, died in a poorhouse, the SUD- port of the family devolying upon John A. Johnson, twelve years of age. MT. Johnson conducts the St. Peter Herald, q county newspaper, and the Swedes and the county newspapers became important factors in his cam paign. The truth is newspaper men are appreciated in Minnesota, both candidates for governor, and the chairmen of both state committees be- ing newspape. men.
 But the most potent factor in the remarkable campaign was the un- caIled-for and unjust assault of the republican candidate for governor upon MT. Johnson's early Home life. His opponent-a MT. Dunn-charged that MT. Johnson had let his father go to the poorhouse and that he let his mother take in washing. When it was explained that he was then but a boy of twelve years of age, and that he manfully did his best, public senti- ment turned towards him. The news papers helped him, even those tied to the republican party. His opponent, too, stood charged with boodling and with corporate ties, and the result was that the brave and faithful Scandi- navian won notable victory in a state that gave Mir. Roosevelt plural ity of over one hundred thousand. MT. Johnsons campaign was conducted on high plane, and his election in a state full of republicans is considered one of the most remarkable events of remarkable campaign.

GoIdwln Smith.

Professor Goodwin Smith, who deliv- cred an address before the Canadian club at Ottawa last week. is the only one of the old Oxford savants left" said a literary man. Among the famous men with whom he was intimate were Glad stone, Tennyson and Carlyle.
 'Professor Smith is s2 years of age, and his Ottawa address probably marks his last public appearance From 1858 to 1866 he was reglus professor of mod ern history at Oxford, but in 1868 he ac- cepted the chair of English and constitu- tional history at Cornell university and has lived on this side of the Atlantic ever since. He resigned from Cornell some years ago and removed to Toronto, where he now resides.
 Smith espoused the union side in the war between the Confederaey and the United States, and since he has lived in Canada he has persistently advocated the annexation of that country to this. While Professor Smith is a man of ex- ceptional ability and a master of clear, strong English style he is a pessimist, and is often dominated by prejudice.
 Tn his recent speech Professor Smith spoke of the civil war, saying it was not civil war, but a struggle between two nations. The Confectionery from the first, he said, was a nation, although born of sudden disruption. He gave in teresting conversations he had with Abraham Lincoln, Ben Butler, General Grant and others during the war. He referred to the Gladstone letter episode in which Gladstone said at a time when victory seemed near for the south, that Jefferson Davis had made a nation. But Gladstone was afterward sorry for what he said, he declared. It offended the north and it grieved the friends of the north in England MT. Smith said that If the country was rid of slavery 1t was not rid of lynching. Jingoism reigned with it's swaggering. boastful aggressive ness and it's contempt of right, lie said. Referring to Canada, he said that dem ocracy was on trial War was raging be- tween capital and labor and society was threatened with a tyranny of aceumu- lated wealth"

THE "PAWING HARlrn

From the Alabany Argus.
 Said the woman as she escaped the friendly clutches of the crosswalk po- liceman and reached the curb in a state of mind: 'I can cross any street in AL bany at any hour of the day or night without assistance. l am young, able bodied, with good eyesight can hear a car coming as far as the next one; am active on my feet; do not suffer from heart-failure, swooning or epileptic fits; and I would not allow any man of my family, much less any other man, to make me look like a natural born idiot by fastening his paw to my elbow and showing me across a street as if I went on wheels and needed motive power"
 That is precisely what the woman said, and from they way in which she said it. it will be seen that she meant it.
 Courtesies are dear to the heart of woman. She wants all her rights, but she will sacrifice none of her privileges, and no ono will blame her for that. Wo- men who wear street dresses of walking length and sensible walking shoes do not require the same assistance in dodg- ing vehicles or getting on or off street cars as the women of few years ago who went about wearing highheeled boots and long trains to their gowns.

son the perplexities and unprohtable- ness of politics. Cotton is now and promises long to be a profitable crop; our iron timber is ever in demand, and the Panama canal is not far away. When the two oceans are connected near our own gulf, trade and even travel will be turned southward. Never has the south had better pros pects, and we can well afford to turn from the squabbles of politics in order to render the south rich and independ- cnt. That is the duty of today. That is the task of this generation.
 The race problem must be left to time. It cannot be settled by politi- clans at Washington, nor can 1t be unduly affected by the Crumpackers that afflict the country. It Is beyond the efforts of all demagogues, and time and patience can find as the world grows older solution, or rather solutions, for each phase of it will be solved as it arises.
 The south needs development of every resource and an increased white population, and these things will rem der the south strong and independent and influential much quicker and more thoroughly than politics of any sort O. degree can. Let us turn for the time from political methods to indus trial and commercial opportunities, finding in the latter more content ment, more happiness and more pros perity than we have known since the war

MY SHADOW.

By Robert Louis Stevenson. l have a little shadow that goes in and out with me, And what can be the use of him is more than I can see. He Is very, very like me from the heels up to the head; And l see him jump before me, when l jump into my bed. The funniest thing about him Is the way he likes to grow Not at all like proper children, which is always very slow; For he sometimes shoots up taller, like an India-rubber ball, And he sometimes gets so little that there's none of him at all He hasn't got notion of how children ought to play And can only make a fool of me in
 every sort of way. He stays so close beside me, he's a coward you can see; I'd think shame to stick to nurse as that shadow sticks to mel One morning. very early, before the sun was up.
 I rose and found the shining dew on every buttercup: But my lazy little shadow, like an arr rant sleepy head. Had stayed at home behind me and was fast asleep in bed.

THE PROSPEROUS SOUTH.

From the Wall Street Journal
 Boston--A Boston business man who has just returned from the south says; The south is becoming daily more strong toward protection while New England is leaning toward reciprocity. It is figured in the south that her agricultural inter- ests this year will receive more than $s00,0 900 for the products from southern soil, an amount unprecedented in the history of the country.
 This Boston man asked the people in the south what they had done with the large amount of money they got from last years crop, as it did not appear visible in investment demand or in par ticular lines of trade. The response was that the southern people had become inn itators of the north and were organizing banks and financial institutions and mak- ing deposits therein, and this year they were able to do their own banking with out the assistance of any money from the north. whereas usually the north has furnished $5o,OOOOOO of money in the cot ton season.

"John Morley, the distinguished Eng lishman, who is now on visit to Amer ica, is an Oxford man and is in the fore most rank of men of letters." remarked a well informed person. He has been frequent contributor to magazines for many years and his Life of Gladstone is regarded as a master work.

 It is certainly advisable to hold cot ton until it rings ten cents at the farm, and it will readily bring that price if the southern farmers will af- ford the bulls in the great cotton mar kets half a chance. The farmers have apparently been in league with the bears, and it is time now to go over to the other side by withholding from market every possible bale. Sell no more in the next thirty days. Tide over the thirty days in way except through the sale of more cotton. Let the world become cotton hungry. Give the bulls a chance to stampede the bears.
 MT. Joroan suggests that county meetings be held throughout every cotton growing state, and he urges every farmer who still holds bale to attend them. We need such meetings in this state. Receipts should be largely lessened, and if county meet ings will accomplish the purpose, let us by all means hold them. Let call be published in each county, urging every farmer who still holds bale to attend. A determined stand, says MT. Joroan, will orlng victory.
