NEW YORK. Feb AR. 2. Schwer.
in, viee-prsident and general manager
Of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company
whose business relations with those OF
China have been intimate for more than
a dozen years, regards the situation in
China with grave apprehension. He
considers the manifestations OF disor-
der as primarily anti.Ameriean but,
with the sentiment Of China for the
Chinese underlying the erruptions, the
trouble is certain, in his opinion, To
spread and become an anti foreign up
rising that will make all other nation
alities excepting the japanese, the OBJ
jects OF attack.
Speaking OF the prospect OF trouble
Mr.. Schwerin last night said:
The present situation is certainly
exceedingly serious, and the safety OF
all the missionaries in the empire is
menaced. Indeed, should not be sur
prised at any time to read OF a whole
sale massacre. And if il should come
to such a pass--which | fervently hope
may be avoided, we simply would be
paying the penalty Of our folly and
reaping the fruit OF our outrageous
treatment Of the Chinese.
The Boxer uprising OF 1900 was one
OF the evidences of the ferment of anti.
foreign feeling. but when order had !
been restored no people stood closer
TO the Chinese than did the Americans. i
And as result our trade with China (
had increased by leap, and bounds since /!

The Indifferent Citizen.

Indifference is the blight that af.
fects all efforts for better things. The
prosperous citizen Is optimistically
confident that things are going right
and that any side-stepping must be
only temporary. So he let's them 60
and Is content to think that he. at
least, has nothing to worry about.
Comfortably fixed In the first cabin
with all the luxuries Of modern life
about him, he cares nothing what
other people In the same ship are do
ing-whether they are scuttling 1t, set
ting 1t afire or preparing a mutiny:
all he knows or cares about Is that It's
mighty pleasant right where he Is and
that's enought. This negligence and
Indifference clear the way for those
who do care and who have selfish ends
to serve. All the deals and machina-
tions that make modern politics dis
reputable are due, fundamentally, to
the neglect Of the great majority to be
alert. says the Hartford, Conn, Cour-
ant. 1t Is nonsense to say that society
itself Is rotten. 1t holds together just
because OF its sweet and wholesome
strength. The piratical element that
lives on 1t Is tolerated, not dominant.

Our Coal Supply.

Occasionally fears are expressed
that the coal supply of the United
States will give out. This apprehen-
sion Is entertained because this coun.
try, while surprising all others in pro-
duction, is also the greatest coal con-
sumer in the world. But every now
and then comes the announcement of
new discovery which shows that the
limit has not yet been reached. A
vein In Pennsylvania has just been
found which the experts say contains
millions on millions Of tons Of coal.
and they roughly estimate its value at
S50,000.o00 to $75.000,0O0. 1t is about
as difficult to convince people OF the
danger of complete exhaustion OF the
coal supply as 1t Is to make them be-
lieve in the reality OF an Ice famine.

An Up-to-Date Navy.

United States naval officers do not
admit that the monster battleships
planned by Great Britain and Italy
are necessarily more effective than
warships of the Connecticut-Louisian
and the Michigan-South Carolina types.
Now that fuller details have reached
here regarding the Cuniberti battle
ship, with which Italy expects to out
class the Dreadnaught, there Is less
disposition than ever to overesti-
mate the Importance of ltaly's
move. The assumption that the
biggest battleship can whip one
a few hundred tons smaller leaves out
Of account the matter of seamanship,
brains, courage, craftsmanship, and
relative efficiency, says Harper's
Weekly. American warships may not
be as big as the biggest, but In per.
sonnel and equipment they equal any.
thing afloat. Our newest warships
have a steaming radius Of 5000 miles,
much greater than that OF any other
battleships ahoat. This Is very i'm
portant element In the fighting eff
cheney Of all war vessels, and one in
which the large English and Italian
battleships are likely to fail.

TO ESTABLISH PEOPLES LOBBY.

MUSKOGEE: In consideration OF
the fact that many large interests
throughout the country will be repre-
sented by lobbyists at the constitu-
tional convention which meets at
Guthrie November 20, there Is strong
sentiment here which Is expected to
result in peoples lobby" to keep
tab on the corporation interests dur
ing the convention. This lobby" will
be composed of representatives of the
people, who will look after their in
terests, watching carefully the moves
of the men who are working for large
interests. The work Of each Of the
delegates, his backing and motive for
measures he supports, will be among
the things needed by the peoples
lobby"
Lobbyists and grafters are assem-
bling in Guthrie ready to protect the
interests which pay them good money
for their work. 1t is said that 1t will
be especially so during the constitu-
tional convention. There are many
reasons given in support of this
statement. Should the new state
adopt reform method against the
corporations, other states will seek to
follow the precedent established and
demand similar laws. This gives the
corporations unusual interest in the
movements of the law makers of the
new state, and 1t is quite probable
that 1t will be fight to the finish.
The Standard Oil company. the book
trust. and the railroads are already
charged with feeling the delegates
and attempting to influence them into
the corporation way Of thinking.
While the time for comforting with the
delegates individually has been too
brief for any material action, 1t Is
safe to assume that the representa-
tives OF these three trusts will be ON
the ground, and are already fairly &C.
quainted with the situation. The
Standard Oil can see fields of oil in
the new state, which are well worth
investigation; there are at present
5000 miles of railroad in operation;
and the book trusts are wanting to
furnish text books for the schools OF

be honest. self-reliant, industrious and
home owners. and il should be the con-
Germ Of all to protect and promote the
common welfare from which the in

reliance and industry. And on the other
hand where people are home owners.
Industrious and self-reliant. they are
stronger industrialiy. mentally. morally
and physically.

prompting the individual to pluck and
injure the common good that he may
selfshly promote self. and where this
spirit Is dominant I'm government. and
permitted to grow. IL Is crystalliZed into
