THE WAY TO LOOK AT IT.

The New Bern Journal sets good
example in its remarks about the
weather 1t does not dwell upon how
hot the sun is, does not warn its read
ers against ice cold drinks. does not
prescribe how to keep cool, but recog-
nizes the good use of hot weather and
welcomes it as a friend. Under the
heading Good Hot Weather" it says;
THE weather of the past few days
has been indispensable for the matur-
ing of tobacco and to restore to cotton
what had lost during the rainy sea-
son. The heat has not been so bad
that very much. complaint has been
made. The people know what IT
means to the farmers, and they are
satisfied to suffer if the farmers crops
will be benefited"
The spirit that should reign among
all people in cotton country is we'll
expressed in the words satisfied to
suffer if the farmers crops will be
benefited" There can be no general
prosperity next fall unless the farm
ers make good crops, and while the
present is sizzling" and uncom-
Portable to the army of Cant-Get-to-
the Mountains or Seashore but Must
Stick to Work, it should be borne in
the spirit of the New Bern paper. Be-
sides, it will soon be over, and in a
few months those who are now COM
planning most of the heat will be
shivering most at the cold.

Manila, Aug. 11.-A banquet given
by the natives to the Taft party to.
night attracted great interest as it
was expected Secretary Taft would
outline the policy of administration
For some time past feeling among the
natives has ben that the administra
tion was deviating from the Mckinley
policy and as a result there has been
noticeable disaffection among polite
ans with the insular government and
also much unrest.
This attitude was met fearlessly by
Taft, who upheld the administration
policy. When he finished his address
he was loudly applauded. Taft said
the American people are divided upon
the Philippine question into three
classes. One favors extension of the
American influence in the Orient by
purchase and conquest; the second be.
lieve the United States are trustees
for the F'ilipinos and must prepare that

st. Petersburg. Aug. 18th, 2:55 a. m.
News of the speedy completion of
Whites reply came as a surprise to
the Russian public, as delay. at least
until Monday, was anticipated to per-
init consultation at Peterhof Though
Witte has ample powers to draft re-
ply at Portsmouth, the foreign office
shared the view that the response
would be withheld until Monday.
Whites initiative and decision have
evoked admiration Of the Russians, ac
customed as they are to delays in mat
ters of similar future. Japan's de
mands, as predicted. have served to
array the Russian government and
people under the same banner for the
first time since the beginning OF the
war and II is evident that Witte will
find almost solid support at his back
In Whatever answer he may make to
komura's communication.
The government permitted and en-
couraged the publication OF Associa-
ted Press dispatches containing the
Japanese conditions, which like fiery
cross rallied Russia's disunited clans,
reactionary, conservative. liberal and
radical. With scarcely an exception
every voice is raised in urging the
government to hold out against Jap
ans principal demands.
The Associated Pre- talked yester-
day with leading men Of various
classes and all declared continuance
OF the war would he better than ac
ceptance OF such terms. The same
spirit is manifested in almost every
newspaper office. Radical organs are
ranging alongside Of the Novoe vrem-
va while the Russ today declares: III
these are Japans conditions all hope
of peace has vanished"
Indignation also is growing over
what Is regarded as a doubtful pre-
cedure on the part of the Japanese
with regard to their credentials aud
many are asking what is the real
reason underlying their action.
