Chinese Boycott
Not Against
Foreigners

By WI TING FANG. Former Minister
to the United States

~UTNA is at a crisis and is PASSING 1HhOUuH -
TRANSITION STAGE. Her statesmen ana people :.
that China needs reform, but there are great :.
opinion regarding the means. There are several cnSSe9 :"
refomers. There are those who speak torelgn mhguase'
ond who have been abroad and who have had experience on Doul zoe
Of the question.
They favor sensible and useful reforms, but not too radical, 81 al 10
make CHINA FIRST ABLE TO STAND UPON HER OWN
FEET. :,
MANY Chinese who have gone abroad to America, Austraia ana
the Philippines write home complaining of ARBITRARY DID,
ORGANIZATIONS A AGAINST THE CHINESE which
dare not be attempteda against other foreigners. Therefore every one
is nor and hence the boycott of American goods, illustrating the
feeling against the unjust exclusion laws. 1t has spread over all emma
and is solel in retaliation against unjust discrimination and 10 MI
ANTIFOREIGN. The Chinese people and officials are ON GOOD
TERMS WITH ALL FOREIGNERS and have no hostile feelings
toward them. The Chinese merchants have the best feeling toward
foreign merchants.
The majority f the people in the interior are Indifferent to all for
eigners travelling in the interior, who write that they are well treated,
with NO SIGNS OF HOSTILITY against them.
These rumors of antiforeign feeling are not we'll founded. SEN
sihe men advise boycoters and agtators to be reasonable and only to
boycott goods and not to treat persons mkindy, BUT ~ CON-
TINUE THEIR FRIENDSHIP as before.
Unfortunately disturbances in several places are now arising from
the boycott, but this is NO SIGN OF AN OUTBREAK AGAINST
FOREIGNERS.

ium for lectures, concerts, and enter
tainments the city has not. The Y. M.
C. A. would supply this. A fully
equipped gymnasium is not to be
found in the city. This the Y. M. G.
A. would furnish. The boys want n
swimming pool with shower baths
and lockers. The Y. NJ. C. A. sup
plies these. A running track indoors
would be a feature. There would be
the bowling alleys and the game
room.
One of the greatest attractions,
however, is the lodging rooms which
are offered at a reasonable rental to
Young men. Nothing is more to be
desired in this city than such a place.
The matter will bear serious consid-
GRAFTON. Some movement ought to be
put on foot to bring a branch of the
Y. M. C. A. to this city.

~ ing" of an immature boy is a crime, but even for the mature
n man it is harmful. 1t is generally forgotten that it takes but
vry moderate exercise to keep the muscles and tissues in good condi-
ton. Excessive or prolonged exerton is never needed. Many old
men have boosted that they never took exercise or INDUCED in physical
ports, but examination shows that they have always, though uncon-
ciously, TAKEN ENOUGH for their needs.
College sports are necessary physical competitions in which every
me must join, more or less, though never to the point of severe strain
TO arteries nor so prolonged as to need a bigger heart than is necessary
FOR FUTURE USE. They are intended to relieve the unwhoe-
some nerve strains which civilization has thrust into the study and
class room and to train muscles, nerves and perceptions to increased
efficiency. They are educational means to an end and should be as
carefully considered and controlled BY THE FACULTY as the
studies. The parents instinctively demand it, and their instincts are
right.
Unhappiy the teachers is a rule look upon the matter purely as
one of recreation, which the students must take for themselves, merely
being under some control to keep them from taking MORE THAN
ENOUGH. Here and there it has been left entirely to the student
instead of being utilized for its great educational value. The present
system, then, is unnatural and unscientifc, and abuses were bound to
enter.
1T is THEREFORE, TIME TO RETRAcE A LITTLE FROM THE
MEDIAEvAL POINT OF VIEW TO THAT OF PLATO AND PLACE ALL
SPORTS UNDER FACULTY CONTROL AND MANAGEMENT AS PART
AND PARCEL OF THE EDUCATION.

WOman's Influence Is Needed
In Every Problem of Life
By Rev. J. S. THOMAS. San Francisco

"a NJ AN and woman should work together IN EVERY De
W. PARTMENT OF LIFE-in the home, in the church and
N in the state. The influence of woman is neededi in EVERY
problem of life. Commercial and social life needs the
woman. The truth is the home is not circumscribed by the four walls
OF the kitchen and the living room. The children are not in the house
all the day. They are in the schools and in the streets. We need the
woman, the mother, to aid in the management Of the schools and the
government Of the streets. They are a part of the home IN THE
LARGER SENSE. What right has anyone to say that woman shall
remain within the four walls?
Ii 1t Is woman's duty to see that beautiful pictures are hung on
the walls OF the parlor, why iit not her duty to see that the pictures
on bilIboards and in the store windows shall be sweet and uplifting
too? HER CHILDREN HAVE TO LOOK AT THEM If it
is a woman's duty to keep the children and the home clean, why is it
not her duty to keep the streets clean? Life in all its undertakings is
a problem for the solution of men AND WOMEN working together.
There IS too much separation. We have separated the mission work in
the church and given a special part Of it to the women, and we have
made a mistake. The men and the women in the church should work
together. THERE is NO SEX IN THE PROBLEMS OF LIFE.
SOMETIMES FEEL VERY TIRED ABOUT THE WAY MEMBERS
OF MY OWN SEX TALK ABOUT THE SPHERE OF WOMAN. IF
HOME IS THE PLACE FOR WOMAN, THEN HOME IS THE PLACE
FOR MAN. THEY ARE coPARTNERs FOR LIFE TO WORK TO-

TUESDAY, MAY 1.
v. NJ. c. A. TALK.

Y. M. C. A. work is not a new SUD-
iect in these columns. The EVEN
ING NEWS has many times called
~a++entien-te the needs of this CITY
along this line and is ready to do SO
again whenever the opportunity Of
fers until such an institution is estab-
lished here. The letter published on
another page is of more than usual
interest and the NEWS is glad 10
give space to it. Writing from such
n distance as Salt Lake City, the au-
thor cannot be expected to under
stand the local situation, although
his remarks are excellent and there
is moi reason why a Y. M. c. A. move
ment should not be started.
Regarding the letter, however, IL
should not be supposed that the pro-
posed home for the Westminster Ca
diets is to cost but $1,000. That
mount would make the purchase oil
the building sure, but would not pay
for it entirely. The writer also re-
fers to raising $4,000 to 100000
for a Y. M. c.. A. building. Here
again the writer proves that he is a
Ions distance off. When our hand
soonest churches, costing from $780,
600 to 100000, are still much in deb
after struggling hard to raise what
they already have paid, no one but an
entire stranger on the other side o.
the continent would suggest raising
$685. 600 or 100000 among our citi
zens for a Y. M. C. A. building.
Yet some great things have beel
done in places which appeared al
homeless as this city. The right par
Ties going to work in the right wa
might accomplish wonders. The Y
M. G. A. once started would, almos
beyond a doubt, become self support
ing. This is one of the greatest OF
ganizations in the world and its rea
work and influence is not fully real
lied by those who have never lived !
a city which enjoys it's advantages
The Y. M. c. A., while having a spi
itual side as its name implies, is d
voted to the physical, social and int
lectual side of a young mans life
we'll. Its entrance fee is small an
its dues are nominal compared wit
the advantages to be derived.

Notwii hstandIng that ne will have
no opposition for the Democratic nom-
ination for Congress Hon. Ben John
son is making thorough canvas OF the
district. He spent last week in the
western end of the district but did not
have time to complete the rounds"
therefore he is in the same section
again this week. He never does any
thing by halves.
1t must be very pleasing to him 10
note that every Democratic newspaper
in the Fourth district has spoken with
much favor of his candidacy for the
nomination for Congress Not IN the
history Of Fourth district politics has
the candidacy of such man met with
such general favor. This is due to the
fact that the people of the district re-
cognlze in MI. johnson a man who
will make an able Congressman and
one who will be recognized by the peo-
pie of the whole State-maybe the
whole country-ss one of the ablest
in Congress.
Three years ago when the editor of
The Sun owned the Breckenridge
Democrat ne mentioned Mr.. Johnson S
name in connection with the chair
manship OF the Central Committee.
After that we received numerous re-
quests from Democrats in Breckenridge
county asking that Mr.. johnson be
urged to agian enter politics each Civ
ing practically the same reason why
this should be done, namely, that ne
would make a safe conservative leader
one that could at all times be trusted
to do that which would be best for the
party regardless of self interests or the
interests of friends. This is the sort OF
an opinion Democrats have mad of Mr..
johnson for long time and when they
saw that an opportunity would come
for them to honor him they were glad
and expressed themselves.
The newspapers over the district in
speaking with 50 much favor Of Mr..
Johnson's candidacy have merely
voiced the sentiment of nearly every
Democrat in the district. Springfield
