was not to be effected by conquest,
but by colonization.
1t makes the head reel to read the
list of territories scheduled by Mr..
Rhodes at the age of "a for the occu-
patton of British settlers.
First he goes down the entire CONT
nent of Africa and secondly the whole
of South America. After thus dispos-
ing of two massive continents, he
throws in as afterthoughts the sea-
boards of China and Japan, the Holy
Land, the Euphrates valley, the ISL
ands Of the Pacific and Mediterranean
and the Malay archipelago.
Planned Merging With U. S.
The political programme of this
astonishing dreamer included "the ulti-
mate recovery of the United States Of
America as an integral part of the
British Empire"
On this a word must be said to pre-
vent misunderstanding. When Rhodes
talked of recovering the United States
as an integral part of the British EN-
pire, he meant the restoration of the
unity of the English-speaking world.
1t was to him Indifferent whether the
capital of the reunited race was at
| Washington or in London.
In his later years he told me that h1
was so passionately devoted to the
idea of reunion that If it could be
brought about in no other way he was
quite willing that the various king.
doms, colonies and dominions should
seek admission as States into the
American Republic.

CHINA CALLS A HALT
IN REMODELING ARMY

PICKING, November 12.-One of the
most important developments in the
world today is the reorganization of
the Chinese army. 1t is important be-
cahse of China's illimitable raw ma
terial for any army and the influence
her huge land forces of the future Will
have on the worlds affairs. But there
is more immediate interest in it, be-
cause China is seethlng with discon-
tent, and experienced observers pc

lied troops will have to decide whe-
Their they will remain loyal to the
Manchu dynasty. q.
Down in the south, where the rev.
dictionary feeling is strongest, Sun
Vat Sen, the well-known reformer, is
pulling all the wires he can to induce
the troops to side with the rebels
when the rising comes. He plans to
score in China, despite It's immense
area, coup such as drove Manuel
from the throne of Portugal His
dream is sufficiently near realization
to cause the deepest concern in the
capital So many of the officers
have been found to entertain revo-
lutionary opinions that there is hest
fancy about increasing the army &C
cording to the original plan. The
Chinese army today numbers 10000
men, and it was proposed to increase
it gradually until it reached a tota
OF 1,1S5O0O in 1920.

BY William T. stead.

LONDON, November 13.-When l
published the last will. and testament
of Cecil Rhodes, l was forbidden to
publish the text of his first will, which
no one had ever seen but his lawyer
and myself. Nor, indeed, had either of
us any exact knowledge of its contents
until we opened it after his death. Sir
Lewis Mitchell, in his official life of
Ceci' Rhodes, has now given it to the
world.
1t is a curious document, embodying
the dream of an enthusiastic young
man of twenty-four. Many young men
dream dreams, but it is seldom that
they attach so much importance to
their dreams as to make a will be-
queathing a fortune (Which they have
not yet made) to a Secretary Of State
for the realization of their dreams.
That was what Mr.. Rhodes did, and
it was thoroughly characteristic of the
man.
Disraeh was a youth of unbounded
ambition and of inordinate conceit. He
also dreamed dreams of vast magni-
tude. But he made debts instead of
fortunes and his thought always cen
tired upon the almighty I.
Rhodes was man of much loftier
patriotism. His dreams were centered
in the greatness and glory of the Eng.
disappearing world. To promote that
end, he was from his youth up ready
to sacrifice name, fame, wealth, life
itself
Secret Society His Hope.
What dream it was! His secret
vision, carefully concealed from every
one, confided only to the shee of paper
in the sealed envelope, which no eye
was permitted to see until his own
eyes were sealed in death. To be the

ciety, a cross between the Free Ma
sons and the Jesuits; to endow that
society with all the money he might
earn and to dedicate it to the achieve
ment of a great imperial end-thiS
was the great ideal of his life.
Nothing appalled, his intrepid imag
ination. 1t is enough to take ava!
the breath to read his frank straight
forward plan for the extension of Bri
fish rule throughout the world. I

the result that seditious sentiments
are engendered.
Sir Robert Hart, the famous Direc-
tor General of the Chinese Imperial
Maritime Customs, has declared that
when China has developed her army,
her ingrained distaste for fighting will
lead her to dictate peace to the
world" by reason Of her enormous
forces. But those who have travelled
in China more recently are convinced
that China must pass through a
maelstrom of internal strife before
then. Evidently the Manchu authori-
ties realize that unusual measures are
called for, because they are nego-
tiating with the British Government
for the loan of officers to discipline
the Chinese soldiers.
In the provinces a start has been
made at building district barracks at
cost of $4,000 each, and meanwhile
the new troops are quartered mostly
in large temples. The summer uni
form is made of cotton, dyed to re.
semble the western khaki, while the
winter uniform is of ordinary coarse
blue cotton. All observers have been
struck by the immense strides that
have been made in smartness and eff
ficiency in the past two years.

Tennessee hope may win the Governor
ship this fall was formerly street waif

Hooper, and in the shattered condition
of the Democratic ranks his friends
think they see a chance of electing
him. The hope may be vain but the
history of the candidate is interesting.
One who suggests that this is nation
OF equal opportunities is likely to be
considered bit old-fashioned in his
views. We hear good deal about inc
qualities, at least some Of which is un-
true, and not enough about CAPABILITIES.
