Japan, which are very good.
Japan is a pivotal country, says
Mr. Cochran, and it is easy to see how
Christian Japan might Christianize
the whole of Eastern Asia. There is
also to be noted new moyement
among the young men of China, which
corresponds in some particulars TO
nihlism i'm Russia.
1t is spreading revolutionary doc
trines throughout China, and may be
heard from in startling fashion before
long. Christian missionaries are care
full to hold aloof from the movement,
which is political and i'm no sense re-

Awakening of the Peo-
Piles Of the Orient

The increase of the foreign trade of
China has been marked in recent
years. and in the opinion of the Rev,
DR.. Arthur J. Brown of the Presby-
terian Board of Foreign Missions is
likely to play AN important part in
changing the attitude Of the Chinese
toward the Western peoples.
DR.. Brown made careful study of
the subject during his recent trip
around the world, and talks interest
ingly of the Chinese foreign trade and
of the part enjoyed in 1t by the Unit
ed States. Year by year, he says, this
foreign trade has increased, with the
exception of the time of the Boxer
outbreak.
In 1899 the total foreign trade had
reached 46O.O0O,OO taels Ga Haik-
wan tael equals SO cents in American
currency. In 1900. Boxer year, it
dropped to $4,000, 900 taels, but the
following year it sprang to 43S, 200, 900
taels, and in the two following years
it advanced lOO.OOO,OOO taels.
American Trade Growing.
The share of the United States in
this business is larger than at first
appears, because no inconsiderable
part of our trade goes to China by
way of England and Hongkong and is
credited to British totals. But Amer
lean trade with China has vastly in.
creased since 1900. We now sell the
Chinese more cotton goods than al
other countries combined, and OuI
, sales of kerosene oil and flour have
also increased greatly in the past few
years. There is corresponding in
crease along other lines also. The
utility of the American locomotive ha:
led to large sales in China, and from
the enormous forests bordering the
Pacific ocean i'm the state of Oregon
and Washington. great quantities o.
lumber are annually exported to East
ern Asia, which is too densely~ popu
lated to have large forests.
Imports to the United States from
China are somewhat larger than eX
ports. SILK and tea are principa
items i'm this trade. although goa
skins, wool and mating also amour
to large sums annually. The United
States is now the third nation in trade
relations with China. This is the NOR,
remarkable when we consider tn,
statement of the late Mr.. Everett
Frazer of the American Asiatic Asso
citation that in January. 1901, ther
were only four American busines
firms in all China. DR.. Brown deduce
from his study of Chinese condition
that when American business men es
tablish their own houses in China, in
stead of dealing as now through Euro
pean and Chinese firms, 1t is not un
reasonable to expect that the Unite
States will outstrip its larger rivals
Great Britain and France; though
is one thing to ship foreign goods t
China and quite another thing t
control them after their arrival, 70
the Chinese are disposed to manag
that trade themselves and they kno'
how to do it.

Look we'll to the toga,

Both Oregon and Washington are
now striving for better assessment
laws. The legislatures of both states
are now discussing means of reach
ing more property uncovering hid
den wealth and placing invisible prop
critics on the assessment rolls.
Through poor assessment laws all
states lose more or less money and
visible property is made to bear an
unjust burden. Oregon's Legislature
should follow the suggestion of Gov
ernor Chamberlain and pass a law
assessing franchises and unseen and
intangible classes of property. The
most valuable class of property is
that kind which is not visible-the
Industries and the private income
and dividends from large corporate
interests. The visible farm, livestock.
merchandise and improvements on
real estate must (bear the burdens
shirked by the invisible classes of
property. Oregon assessors will meet
in Portland on Monday. January 23,
and it is hoped that some compre-
hensive law is suggested for the con-
sideration of the legislative session
The members all seem to be i'm a
receptive mood, and the recommends
tion of the assessors will not be in
vain, perhaps.

Japanese Influences.

The influence of Japan is having
more and more effect on China, and
it has been recently said by the Rev.
Samuel Cochran, who is stationed by
the Presbyterian board at Hwai Yuen
in Central China, that the Chinese are
turning to Japan for their knowledge
of Western literature, science. history
politics, etc.
In medicine, for example, Chinese
text books are few and poor, but with
few months study of the japanese
language Chinese medical students

CARE OF LITTLE THINGS.

Exetravagance rules in matters Of
feminine clothing as it has never
ruled before, and it behOoves every
girl and matron to take mighty good
care of her wardrobe. A stitch in
time not only saves nine stitches but
is frequently the means of saving an
entire gown.
BY taking care of ones gloves, by
carefully folding ones wells. by keep
ing ones hats in boxes rather than
thrown about on closet shelves. much
can be done toward preserving the
freshness and crispness Of these nee
essary things. A bandhox for every
hat should be provided. even if closet
space is at premium and the boxes
must be poked under the bed er lounge
to be out of the way.
The use OF a poarasol in summer
will do much toward keeping a hat

Prosecuting Attorney Rhoton is pre-
pairing to continue the legislative
Doodle investigation, but it is not like
ly that the grand jury will take up this
matter until some time after it con-
venes On next Monday, says the Little
Rock Gazette. The law requires that
the grand jury, upon assembling, shall
dispose first Of all of the Jail cases
awaiting disposition. There are about
thirty of these cases, and it is likely
that the grand jury will be occupied
with them for at least two weeks. AS
soon as this business is finished the
body will probably devote it's attention
to the Doodle inquiry. Prosecuting
Attorney Rhoton has some additional
evidence in connection with the
Doodle charges which he desires to lay
before the jury, but no intimation has
been given as to the nature of this
evidence. 1t is thought likely. how
ever. that the investigation may pro-
oeed along entirely new lines.
1t is not probable that any of the
legislators or others now under indict-
ment will be tried before the latter
Eart of October None of the cases
will be set for the early part of the

cases. All felony cases which have
been on file for ten days or more at
the opening of the court next Monday

include all the criminal cases thus far
filed, as there have been none appeal

The members of the Jefferson Fen

der during the quarantine, have re.
ceived their pay for service they ren.
oered the state. The Pine Bluff com.
pany did quarantine duty in the Nc
Gehee district for some time, until re-
lieved by members of other compa-
MES. The total amount received was
$211.25 and each private received
43 cents per day. corporals so cents
per day and sergeants 60 cents per
day. The money was distributed to
the members of the company at a
meeting of the company held for that
purpose last Wednesday night, at the
armory.
Another meeting of the company
will be held next Sunday afternoon
at 4 O'Clock. when the matter of reOr-
ganizing the company will be discuss
ed. and it will probably be decided at
that meeting to enlist other men to
take the places of the men whose
terms of enlistment have expired.
During his captaincy over the Fen
cib,es, Capt. w. B. Pinney has infus-
ed greater life into the organization
and there is more interest being taken
in the local organization now
than has been taken in a long
time The Fencibles have always been
reco ognized as being one of the most
efficient military companies in the
state guard. but the expiration of the
terms of enlistment of several men,
-hers recently has been the cause of
some dropping off in the work that
has been a source of regret, and it is
now the intention of those most inter-
ested in the company to make an ef-
fort to recruit the company back to
its usual strength and to renew the
drills in order to bring the company
back to its usual efficinecy The con-
census of opinion is that the company
is fortunate in having such a capable
