ADDRESS BY HArsuJI MAyEsAwA
Only Japanese Undergraduate Student
 at Shelf.

Only Japanese Undergraduatet Student
 at Shelf.
 To the Editor Journal and Courier.
 Hatsuji Mayesawa, the only Japanese undergraduate student in the Sheffield Scientific school, who. is very popular, and was recently given dinner by the members of the junior and senior class es, attended a meeting of the English Lutherans on State street Sunday even ing. By request he made few re- marks concerning religious matters in
 Japan, the gist of which is as follows;
 Ladies and Gentlemen:-I stand be- fore you tonight, not to make any show of knowledge, but rather of ignor- |ance. However, my honored teacher,
 Dr. Granville, wished me to make few remarks relating to my native country,
 Japan. So I am going to say a few
 words about the relations between relig- ion and the students in Japanese col leges.
 When I came to New Haven, l was not surprised to see students running
 about in sweaters and canvas shoes, was not surprised to see the great stone buildings, like castles, but 1 was sur Fprised to find that one of the largest of them was devoted to religious purposes, namely Battell Chapel.
 This building seems to me to repre- sent the union of all those longings after what is grand and good in life. think that anyone who has fixed re- ligious belief is happier than one who has not. So I think that students at Yale, future American citizens as they are, should be very happy in this way. On the other hand, when I recall my student life in college in Japan, 1 find ! this happiness lacking. I do not wish you to understand, however, that student life in Japan is not jolly, but this one kind of happiness is missing.
 This fact is not their fault, but is ow- ling to present conditions in Japan. It is not so long. ago that Commodore Perry came to Japan, and opened her gates to the affairs of the world. It is only since then, that she has been mak- | ing rapid progress in the higher civiliz- alton, so that improvement in every de- partments is not yet complete. More over, religious strife is not so easily de- cided as international war. In Japan, everyone breathes the atmosphere of freedom. For example, no social harm would result to one whether he should say, "I am Buddhist" or, T am a Christian" So we may say that peo- pie in Japan are more broad-minded in
 this respect than they were formerly Of course, there are many religious col leges even in the F'lowery Kingdom but in the ordinary college there is nc chapel no meeting, either Buddhistic or Christian. So the student is not sup posed to attend either Christian church or Buddhistio temple, although many of them do so.
 There are many students who, unlike my self, are studying theology and phil csophy in foreign universities, and ev- cry year they bring an improvement on that of Thibet and China; so, I can
 imagine that our scholars will develop a religion somewhat different from their models
 You may think it strange when I say
 that am trying every day to quench
 my religious thirst But I have two

Tribute to Cen. stephen n. Lee.

NO kin to the great Robert E. Lee,
but a great General. l first saw him
in the second battle of Manassas where
he was Colonel of artillery, and wit
messed the effective fire of his guns.
from that day to the close of the great
war when he was a Lieutenant General
his course was onward and upward
Like Henry, the brother of Frederick
the Great, of whom the latter said
"Of all my generals during the seven
years war. my brother Henry is the
only one who never made a mistake
In all the reports and books of Con-
federate war history. General Stephen
ID. Lee is the one who never made a
single mistake. lie is not so elo-
quent in speech as the gifted Gordon
was, but his address to the assembled
veterans at Nashville was full of good
sense and patriotism. GOrdon's speech
es kindled the slumber.ng fires of pa
triotism and excited Confederate en-
thusiasm over the past as no otner
man could do. While that eloquent
voice is hushed forever In death the
Veterans have with them still equally
as gallant, earnest and skillful a man
as Confederate General as he was
and they should honor him by keeping
him as Gordon's successor at the head
of their organization. In his address
published in yesterdays Advertiser, he
said in conclusion:
"A people who do not cherish their
past will never have future worth
recording. The time is even now,
that the whole people of the United
states are proud of the unsurpassed
heroism. self-sacrifices and faithful
ness of the soldiers and people of tie
Confederacy."
There is whole speech of good
sense and truth in This utterance
Large numbers of our young men and
young women are ignorant of the great
truths of the war between the Con-
federacy and the Union. Some say
Il have heard enough of that war,
there has been too much written about
II already That declaration shows
ignorance, thoughtlessness and want
of patriotism, The causes of seces-
sion and war should be studied as well
as the recitation Of deeds of gallantry
fcient Generalship. Why neglect such
information as to the greatest event
that ever occurred on the western
hemisphere. In fact when its magni-
tude In all respects is taken into ac-
count, 1t was the greatest war that
ever rolled its purple food across the
track of time.
Too much written. indeed! That
work is in its infancy. Tom owen
and his sons of veterans are on the
form ourselves, Many things writ
ten are greatly exaggerated, which
mislead the young, Separate fiction
from facts, while the Veterans who can
write live; let them strive to record
the truth. That is great enough and
good enough without eXaggeration or
establishment.
Take General Stephen d. Lees ad-
vice, and join the noble women in their
constant efforts to obtain and preserve
the truth and let the world know what
u great people the Confederates were
l regret that business engagements
prevented me from joining my old COM
rades at Nashville.

ANOTHER JUDICIAL MIDDLE.

The good old Tar Heel State is hav-
ing some troubles along with Federal
judges. 1t has been but short while
since the editor of The Raleigh News
and Observer was fined $4,000 by Judge
Purnell for contempt, and we've no
doubt the editor felt a great deal more
of it than he expressed in his paper.
The fine was set aside by one of the
higher judges. but that didn't put
stop to the comments and criticisms
caused by Judge Purnelrs act.
While that trouble was on hand
Judge Boyd, another Federal official
touched the Tar Heelers on n tender
spot by intimating that he would quit
holding courts at Wilkesborro unless
the hotel accommodations were very
much improved. If he didn't say so, he
left the impression that the grub in
that own is entirely unsuited to the
well-ordered judicial appetite, and
that other hotel features were not of
a kind to add to the dignity and salts
faction of Uncle Sans judiciary.
This kind of criticism was naturally
distasteful TO the citizens of North
Carolina and they have jumped on
Judge Boyd in all sorts of styles for
thus maligning their hotels. The
Washington Post butts into the affair
with these suggestions:
There are several ways out of the
muddle in North Carolina. The Gov
eminent might build a special hotel at
Wilkesboro for the accommodation of
the Federal judge and his retinue and
Train the employees in charge TO observe
all the salaams and lcowtowing that
marks official court etiquette 1t
might be arranged to have the Judge
follow the old school teachers plan of
boarding around" and let his decisions
go to the favor of litigants who make
the best record in providing dignity
recognizing entertainment for the
court 1t might also decide to refuse
recognition in court to litigants who
cannot show in their pleas that they
know how to treat it, Then, as a last
resort, the President might send a
Judge there who recognizes For Jus
tice. all places a temple and all sea-
sons summer"
1t might be supposed that these
well-intentioned suggestions would
just wernt. for some of the newspapers
of the old North State resent outside
interference and The Raleigh Post thus
voices their feelings:
Now what do you think of that3
Wouldn't that shiver your timberso
Think of IL! The government build a
hotel at Wilkesboro. and a special one
at that! The recent destruction of
Wake County Jail wasn't a circum-
stance. Those brawny sons of the
mountains up there would dump the
whole business in Yadkin River before
forty cooks could poach an egg, to say
nothing about observing the "salaams
and kOwtowing" whatever that may
mean. And even Judge Boyd would
resent such interference and brand II
as an insult to the people of the State
1t would be another case of the old
man and his wife engaged in a fight
When a neighbor interfered and tried
to part them they both turned on him
and he had to run for his life
Now. what's to be done in such
mixed-up case as this? The Judge

The Tammany crowd which while UNI

the same crowd which Joined with
Hearst in the futile effort to carry New
York against him; the same which in
lected the ridiculous pretensions of Nc
Clellan into the situation; the same
which is trafficking with Hearst and
Bryan Radicalism in the West in stulti-
fication of every. Conservative princi-
pie; the same which is dangling the
achievements of the presidency before
the eyes of Senator German.
This Tammany crowd has not a vote

German Conservatives and the Hearst

land or Mr.. German; not to promote
Democratic unity in New Cork or else
where; but to intrench the mercenaries
of Tammany Hall in State and national
politics where their opportunities for
graft may be amplihed. Eliminate
these mercenaries and Tammany Hall
is for Parker, almost to a man. Any
Southern or Western Democrat who
wants to learn the exact truth with re-
spect to the New York situation has
but to ask the district commanders OF
Tammany who are not AFFILIATED with
the contractors ring. who will tell him
that Parker is overwhelmingly the first
choice of the Tammany. well as the
State Democracy.
David B. Hill need not be disuuieted
by the Tammany charge that his re-
pressiVe operations toward the Tam
many contractors ring will cost the
Democracy votes or injure his leader
ship of the New York State Democra-
to death of mercenary politics. If by
any chance the guerilla warfare on
Parker should succeed, and by it's sue
cess establish the dominancy of these
Tammany mercenaries in the State and
city of New York President Roosevelt
will carry the State by 100000 plurali-
ty. If, on the other hand, the subju-
cation of that element is confirmed and
emphasized as it should be in the or
ganization of Democrats for the z.ate
and national campaigns, New York will
give It's electoral vote to Judge Parker.
Not even to elect a President will the
Democrats of New York put the Van
Wyck Dock Board in charge of The ca :
nal improvements which are to cost
more than 800, 100000.

The Albany Herald thinks that The

Down about right in the following:
Iron all accounts Congressman Liv-
inRston of the Atlanta, Ga, district has
made more progress in the direction of
naming the Democratic nominee than
any other man in America. He has ex-
pressed favorable opinion of pretty
well every man whose name has been
mentioned, including Mr.. Cleveland

even received decent comment at hts
hands. Mr. Livingston is a progressive

papers like The Post kick at the sug-
gestion that the government build its
own hotel in the town of Wilkesboro,
and who blames them? Such an act
would not only be reflection on the
town and the people. but would be n

rule and several other things dear to
the good people of North Carolina. The
only practical solution we see is that
the Judge carry his grub with him
from his own home and sleep in O tent

IL that doesn't suit his conception OF
judicial dignity he might rig up sort
of travelling caravansary on wheels
and take along provisions, bedding and

something must be done in order to
bring peace and give satisfaction to
the Judge.

THAT "YALLERv ROY.

Mr., Alfred Holt Stone of Mississippi
published some time since in a Northern
magazine. The Atlantic Monthly, to be
specific. an argument going to show
that race troubles at the South of
every kind and description are due TO
the presence there of mulattoes. He
sustained his point by quite variety
of facts. He was roundly abused by
the negro newspapers, their very abuse
going to confirm what might have been
the impression of the average South
erner that these papers are generally,
If not altogether, edited by mulattoes.
They deeply resented Mr.. Stones i'm
putations upon them as mischief
makers. Whether they, or the pure
blacks, be the real-trouble- bringers at
the South, whether one or both classes
or neither of them are trouble breed
ers, need not be discussed now. Those
are questions about which every South
srn white will have ready hand opin-
ions. We are using the point to hang
an anecdote on. Even If this has been
heard or seen before, it throws such
light on episodes we have all witness
ed at one time or another. wherein u
black nanny and a half white son
were the principal figures, that it ought
not to be willingly let die. 1t was told
by New York physician and related to
his school days in Baltimore:

POLITICAL POINTS


II have talked with great many
Democrats, including Colonel Guffey
and Senator German We came to no
conclusion. but / am more convinced
today than ever that Mr. Cleveland is
the man who should be named, and
want to win to put this Nomination on
him. My views may be BIASED, but I
can see no other solution of the mat
ter. l do not consider the nomination
as settled by any means Il have homes
that the convention may be brought to
my way of thinking and name Mr..
Cleveland.
What about the, claim That seven
teen out of the twenty1four New Jer-
sey delegates are for Judge ParkerY'
