SAVANNAH BOY
BACK FROM ORIENT
IMPRESSION MADE BY JAPS
ON ENSIGN j. II. PURSE OF THIS
CITY WAS VERY FAVORABLE.

Savannahian Who Was With Asiatic
Squadron Says Japs Are More
Modern in Their Ways Than the
Russians-Ensign Furse Spent
Three Years Cruising in the Far
East-Says FiIipinOs are "A Stupid
People.
Ensign ]. H. Furse of the United
States navy, who has returned to his
home in this city, after a cruise of
over three years in the Orient. talks
Interestingly of conditions there.
Ensign Furse left San Francisco in
June, 1901, on the Cincinnati of the
Asiatic squadron, Admiral Evans in
command. The squadron cruised from
San Francisco to the Philippine Is
lands, headquarters being at Manila.
For two years the Cincinnati was en-
gagged in patrolling the numerous is
lands of the Philippines, assisting the
army in quelling the rebellion among
the natives.
The magnificence and splendor of the
aggregat ton of ships composing the
squadron, Ensign Furse thought in
spired the natives with awe and this
helped to quell the insurrection. The
Cincinnati was also engaged for some
time in assisting in the maritime sur
vey of the Philippines, which the
United States government has been
making
No Better Than Negroes.
This stay in the Philippines gave
Ensign Furse some good opportunities
for getting an insight into the life
of the Filipinos. They are a stupid,
contented, indolent people," said En-
sign Furse, satisfied if they can get
enough rice each day to keep soul and
body together. Even the better classes
of the inhabitants, with some excep-
lions, are no better than our negroes. -
In July 1908 Ensign Furse left with
the Cincinnati for the northern coast
of China. Japan and Korea. The
squadron went first to Ceefoo and
from there to Yokohama. Sometime
was spent at Yokohama, but Ensign
pearances there it was impossible to
tell that the country was at war,
everything being orderly and peace
able.
saw the Russian Wrecks.
From Yokahoma the Cincinnati
cTuised to Shanghai. At Shanghai the
Savannah man was transferred from
the Cincinnati to the Annapolis and
sailed on the Annapolis from Shanghai
to Chemulpu. The Annapolis reached
Chemulpu just after the two Russian
boats, the Corietz and the Variag, had
been sunk by the Japanese guns and
Ensign Furse had the pleasure of see
ing the wrecks of these two boats.
Here, too, he witnessed the landing of
the Japanese troops.
The Japanese" he stated, ARE an
up-to-date people, and you could see
from their gun practices that they had
gotten onto the modern methods of
naval warfare. They used identically
the same methods as ours and showed
IN their every movement the results of
splendid training.
The Russians, on the other hand.
seemed to have no conception of mod
ern methods. While the Japanese were
putting themselves through strenuous
training in expectation of the war, the
Russians, don't think, ever uncovered
their guns"
The Annapolis sailing from the Orient
landed at Mare Island, California, and
was there placed out of commission.

Statesboro News: Gov. Terrell has
announced that he will order a full
investigation of the whole matter, and
we may look for something to happen.
Capt. Hitch is reported to have taken
the name of the leader of the lynchers
and will give it over to the authorities
for prosecution. All the row they raise
will amount to nothing. 1t will be
difficult to place the blame; in our
opinion, the man who is to blame most
is the man who called out the mill
tary. The people would have lynched
them if there had been twice as many
soldiers here, unless they were fired
on there was not enough to. guard to
think of a thing of this kind happen
ing. We hope that the matter will
soon be adjusted.

Cordele News: In looking for rem

as the Statesboro horror, nothing pre-
sents itself with more force than the
proper enforcement of the vagrant
Jaw This law, which was enacted
about two or three years ago. if prop
erly enforced will entirely rid Georgia
of the idle. criminal class Of her pop
ulation. When this law was first en-
acted many cases were made which
were nearly always followed by con-
victions, and much good was accom-
plished. but II was soon discovered
that the Legislature in passing this
law did not properly provide for the
arresting officers cost, and for this
reason the officers lost interest, and at
the present time very few cases are
made under this wholesome law.
