SCHOLARS IN CHINA.

Foreigners Are Called Doors.
The scholars rule China today. Dress
Is of more moment there than in any
,ther country, yet the scholar, al
though poor and meanly dressed, is
received with honor by the highest In
the land
"The superior man" Of the classics
is the equivalent of the good man"
with us. This man, his character and
his conduct are the constant theme
Of appreciation. His virtue, his honor,
his social relations. his manners In
public and private, are carefully de-
fined. His dignity is among his high
est qualities and must be maintained
at any cost.
In contradiction to the popular idea
of dignity. however, the superior man

Speaking OF a recent speech In Mil.

Of Joseph A. DeBoer OF Montpelier
He warmly dlsclaims being either an
anarchist or socialist, but during
the evening his socialistic ideas we're
plainly In evidence"
How many progressive men OF this
generation, that is to say. truly pro
gressive men that are hopeful that
the future has In store for mankind
something better than the product OF
the past-how many such men but
that acknowledge opinions that by
our fathers would have been called
radical of radioalism, socialism, an.
archy, and everything else that was
to be distrusted7
The radicalism OF one day becomes
