ity. The ground taken by the petition
ers is that the Emperor has reached
mature years and is competent to rule
his people. The real reason for their
desire to secure the abdiCatiOn of the
Empress Dowager is a belief that she
is opposed to the introduction of any
genuine reform in the empire, while
the Emperor is assumed to be favora-
BE to the adoption of such changes in
the conduct of the affairs of state and
il the political conditions of the peo-
pie as their societies are endeavoring
to obtain.
1t will be remembered that the Box
er uprising, which sought to overthrow
the Manchu dynasty adopted similar
tactics at its inception. While the
Boxers waged open war on foreigners
i'm the two provinces in which the in
surrection occurred, the Government
realized its own peril and the true
purpose of the revolt. With character
istic artfulness, however, it first OPP
posed the Boxers and afterward sided
with them to secure its own safety.
Possibly the Empress Dowager and
her advisers may adopt the same tao
ties again, hoping thereby to save the
dynasty from being overthrow as be-
fore. But the danger now threatening
the dynasty and foreigners in China is
more serious than it was at any time
during the Boxer uprising for the rea-
son that the present anti-foreign cru
sade is not confined to the northern
provinces only, but has extended all.
over the empire. Perhaps the only hope
of stopping the movement is the alb
dication OF the Empress Dowager in
obedience to the demands of the re-
form societies.

Mr.. Editor: Since the price of
cotton advanced to II cents, the
farmer is wearing the smile that
won't come off. In some parts OF
the state the crop will be very
short though, and the advance in
price will not be sufficient to
keep many Of them from coming
behind on what they are due the
merchants. Corn and potatoes
and peas are very good all over
the state. The great scarcity OF
labor will cause many farmers to
lose great many peas, as they
can't get hands to pick them and
they are rotting in the fields. -
Many farmers complain of not
being able 10 get the hands to
pick cotton and will be very
much delayed in gathering on
that account.
All Georgia is mourning the
death OF Rev. Sam Jones, who
died suddenly few days ago
In this city, where he has held
many meetings, he was held in
high esteem and we have heard
great many express their great
sorrow over his death. He was
good man, true and sincere. -
he was very original and many
may attempt to initiate him, but
they can never successfully do so.
His life certainly appears to have
been an useful one and he will be
sadly missed by thousands of peo-
pie all over the country.
Within the last few weeks,
while so many race riots have
taken place in different parts Of
the country, we have seen a great
many different articles on the
race problem" ." The preachers
suggest religion, some others sug-
gest education, some think sep
aratiOn of the races the best solu.
ton and others offer other sug.
gestions. Our own private opin.
ion is that if a separation of the
races could be successfully ac-
complished, this would be the
best solution of the problem, but
to do this would require a law to
that effect being passed by Con-
gress, which body would never
pass such law so long as the
sentiment Of Northern people re.
mains as it is now. But let us
hope that the people Of the North
will some time ere long awaken
to the fact that the negroes are
dangerous in our midst and that
their banishment from orr coun.
try for all time will be best for
the negroes and for us and will
join with the people of the South
in getting rid of them.
Senator Tillman has received
much severe criticism for his
speech on the race problem in
Augusta. No doubt he spoke from
his heart and did not use the
calm, conservative judgment he
should have in giving advice on
such a subject. In other words,

or woman aud Usually they are
accorded better treatment at the
hands OF those in charge than
they would get from their own
dear people at home. because, in
a great many cases, the people at
home simply don't know how to
treat them. The charges are not
necessarily so enormous, especi
ally when the benefits received
are taken into account, and we
agree with The News that Lancas-
ter is large enough to have a
hospital and should have one by
all means.

care enough about it to investigate it.
Ii an English show is presented on

over it and over the actors. If there
is a situation which we do not see at

they do or not.

too good for him. He gets American

English have a sense of humor, of
course, but it is very different from
ours. They appreciate impossible sit

keenly. A favorite bit of comedy with
them is the part of the play when the
servant masquerades as the mistress.
1t seems so utterly absurd and impos-
sible to them to have the servant put
ting on the airs of the master or mis-
tress that they laugh very heartily
You see, it depends entirely on the
point of view.
