Comment on Taft.

Berlin, June 22.-Referring To
the nomination of william II. Taft
the official Nord Deusch Zeitun says:
1--WE have no doubt that should Mr.
Taft be elected chief magistrate OF
the United States in November, as
seems evident. the great trans-Atlan-
tic republic will give itself in him on
excellent president. He will be called
upon to continue the policy of the
union along the same lines as his
predecessors. This policy included
the fostering of friendly relations be-
tween the United States and Ger
many, and In this respect we may
regard Mr.. Taft as President Roose-
velt's successor with confidence and
sympathy"

AND IFS GREAT RESOURCES

Mistaken ideas of China were cor
rected yesterday morning by the Rev.
W. II. Upton, who has just returned
from four years stay in southern
China. where he is missionary for
the First Baptist church. In a PLATA
concise way the Rev. Upton told of
the characteristics of the great yell
low people. and of the advance made
in spreading the gospel by the use of
missions.
The Rev Upton has worked In
southern China, where there are
about 400 900 Christians and forty
native preachers These native
preachers are OF the greatest assist
ance. rs the foreign missionary is
greatly handicapped by a limited
knowledge of the language. In
speaking of China, the Rev. Upton
said II was a country of the greatest
mineral resources and had every va
riety OF soil. All of the tropical
fruits are grown. and In central China
wheat corn and all the cereals of
America are grown abundantly. All
of the soil Is titled by hand. and by
such constant use of the fingers. the
Chinese have become the most skill
full people in the world In weaving.
China has the oldest civilization
in the world" said DR. Upton. and
in their civilization they carry out
ideas better than we. The Chinese

many hundred OF the same family

country how II would be TO have a

The Chinese are truly wonder
full people" said the Rev Upton.
land the visits OF Americans surprise
them as they form opinions OF the
Chinese from their representatives
In the laundries OF the United States,
but they have wrong ideas of the
thrifty and are not to be compared
with the southern negro. And | say
most canddly that when trained they
show wonderful ability"
"A trait OF the Chinese Is his per-
severance. With his grit and de-
termination after he has been en-
lightened | believe the Chinese will
rule the world" continued the Rev.
Upton. The Chinese are great imi-
tators. and 20 this fact of the son fol
lowing his fathers trade some of the
great discoveries have been made"
In speaking of the success of the
missionaries the Rev Upton said
that religion was being spread rapid

 In this immense hill is enough red paint to supply the world for many years to come. The deposit is 100U feet wide. over 6OvO feet long and it's depth is unknown.
 w. J. Rainey, the postmaster of Parker, is the sole owner of this great deposit and he intends to begin working it at once. There is only one similar mine in the world and it is located in the republic of France and for years has been worked at an enormous profit.
