WI TING FANG's SORROW.

China's great reformer WI Ting Fang
Tetires from the field of reform in des-
pair He cannot impress his people with
the excellence and efficacy of those
things he knows to be the best for them.
He is foolish man. What can he have
learned in this country, Of grit, and
patience; and devotion to great causes,
if he is SO soon disheartened? His peo-
pie are not like the average Westerner,
to quickly absorb, and as quickly as
simulate, new doctrines. He should have
known this better than most people. No
people on earth are 50 welded to their
customs as the Chinese; and the Oldest
of their civic and social creeds are prac-
tically, ineradicable. And they are no
fools either The way of the reformer
is always dubious way and hard.
It is a rlife-work, and then, often, the
leader dies the unhappy witness of its
utter incompleteness. We have real
respect for the great minister, and trust
he will not forego his work thus early
in the game. He, has a superb code of
reform and an unparalleled field, and
deserves success in every way.lr1

THE DAY in HISTORY.

Those good people who ought to. and
do not remember the pregnant facts
allied with the passing dates, win do
well to scan the brief list of historical
incidents published each day in these
columns. They will be surprised to find
how important anniversaries are con.
tinually passing. For instance. yester.
day, taking the events we'll within the
memory of the ordinary young citizen,
it will be found that July End, was the
anniversary Of the awful murder Of
President Garfield; of the passage of
Lodge @forces bill; and Of the battle
Of San Juan Hill. Look these matters
up daily. They are Of interest to all.

IT NOT ROOSEVELT, wHoa

1t is imperstively necessary that an
early answer be given to the all-absorb-
ing query of the nation, IF not Roose-
welt .whos' In view of the fact that
tn; presidential campaign is practically
on. so far as the democrats are con-
cerned; that that party, it governors and
men Of place and power, are today hard
at work, forming alliances, devising
plans, pulling political strings in all
directions. lining-up and solidifying their
ranks at all points and in all ways; that
they are assuming the aggressive and do
ing it with a sharp tincrure of assur-
ance and positive unanimity the country
over, means that the earliest possible
solution of the great problem confront
ing the republicans must be settled and
declared early in the season to acquaint,
and reconcile that body-politic to the
man and the issues of the day. Roove-
welt Is wanted, just as badly as he ever
was, and the necessity for his strong
right hand" no less than it was. But if
he is not to be had. then it were wise to
get to work and supply the man. And it
were wiser that MAN shall be named.
The people are so accustomed to a real
man in the presidents Office now, that
anything less, means default at the re-
publican polls.
