CONCLUSION.

Our platform is of principles which be-
leve to be essential to our national welfare. Our
pledges are made to be kept when in office we'll
as relied upon during the campaign, and we invite
the cooperation Of all citizens, regardless of party,
who believe in maintaining unimpaired the insti-
buttons and traditions of country.
Because this solemn and public pledge has
been cynically and continuously broken, | can
not endorse the man who secured the highest
office by making it; and his contemptous dis
regard of it forces one to the conclusion that
he never meant to keep faith.
There was never an administration whose
Chief soft-soaped the universe with such
gushing fuency of sanctimonous talk: in his
speeches and State papers, Woodrow Wilson
is the Evangel of new Gospel of Sweetness,
Light, Brotherly Love, rarifed Altruism,
ethereal Philosophy. and full-moon mellow
ness of innocent unsullied unselfsh and
warmly pure Benevolence
In his actual conduct, he has served the rich
at the expense of the poor; he has l1nelt to
lawless Monopoly; he has used his pious
declarations to cover the tracks of cold and
calculating perfdy; he has professed to be a
Democrat in order that he might open the

Foreign Mission Notes.

. EV. CORNELIUS H. PATTON, home secre-
II tary, says: "The American Board has sent
to the suffering people of Asia Minor and the
Balkans about 100000, the gifts OF our con-
stituents all over the country. Mutitudes Of lives
have been saved and we have been able to COM
mend the Christian religion in very effective
way. This, in addition to the support Of it's $50
missionaries two score hospitals and thousands OF
schools, has made it imperative for Dr. Patton to
appeal to churches and phianthropsts to see the
Board through the year without debt The year
closes Aug. 81.
The Presbyterian Board Of Foreign Missions is
endeavoring to secure a young unmarried man to
teach high school subjects for from three to five
years, in Shanghai, China, at the lnterdenomina-
tiOnal school for missionaries children. He should
be a college graduate Of missionary motive who
has taught for at least two years. Secretary
George T. Scott points out that this is a school
for the children of missionaries of all denOmina-
tons and that it has asked the board to secure
teachers. He regards it opportunity for
useful service and broadening experience. Candi-
dates will apply to DR.. Robert E. Speer, 1856 Fifth

Mr.. Griffith will be great help to them.
AS l have remarked before, the emphasis in
missionary work in this part Of China is at present
on the primary schools, and this board was
organized this year with the object of standardiZ
ing and improving the work of the mission schools
Of this grade in this region. Some of the best
speakers in China were present at the institute,
and teachers came from long distances to attend
it, some of them requiring six eight days to
make the trip. I had the privilege of leading
the sectional conference on Forms of Social
Service in connection with the school, and the
interest on the subject was gratifying in the ex-
IRENE. In fact, the whole question of sOcializing
the school is demanding increasing attention here
just it is at home, and in some ways we have q
clearer field in which to work than is the case in
America, for as yet we have not made any formal
engagement to conform to government practice.
However, missionaries have to astonishing eX-
tent simply brought over American curriculum and
methods into the schools Of China. Undoubtedly
system needs rather radical modification in
order to fit into the conditions here. Mission
schools are now becoming sufficiently numerous
so that we feel the necessity of asking just what

compish the work want to do

In the quarter there have been 1877 medical

Besides these, there have been "a inquiries and

Christmas Among the Orphan Boys.
On Christmas morning all of the Christians
and the ~boys of the orphanage assembled for
praise service, and it good one. The boys
i'm the orplanage had their own Christmas tree,
and each received some useful present from the
mission. Usually something in the way of cloth
ing something else which they is given
them. Their tree was very pretty and looked
much like our trees at home, in spite of the fact
that it was not an evergreen. The boys brought
it in from the jungle the day it to be used, and
then Mrs. RiOch and the children decorated it, and
it surely did look nice

benefit it was established; but instead, the
President has created Bureau after Bureau

eminent is farther removed from popular con-
troll than ever before.
The agricultural classes were promised a
system of Rural Credits, which would lend to
the farmer such money as he could give Sc
curlty for, at low rate of interest, and upon
long terms of credit; but instead, the Presi-
dent insisted upon a Land-lOan Board, sub
servient to the Aldrich National Banking Sys-
tenn, and dependent on these specially favored
banks for the funds
To add enormously to the fixed expenses of
the farming and laboring classes, the Presi-
dent has forced a settlement between Railroad
owners and their employees, which gives ten
hours pay for eight hours work. and allows
the Railroads to earn the same prodgious
profits, under the new arrangement, by cha7y-
ing the farmer heooier freight rates, on his
wheat, corn, hay, oats, cattle, cotton, etc
Under Woodrow Wilson, the hideous in
capabilities in the distribution of the annual
growth of national wealth have widened such
chasms between opulent non-producers and
destitute producers that the same daily paper
tells you on one page Of corporations glutted
with profits and on another of the American
family that died for the want of bread.
The head of a corporation pays a million
dollars for few yards of tapestry: and the
daughters of the wor5men who made the
fortune are driven to sell Themselves, to avoid
starvation.
All over our Southern land lies the de
serted field and the dismantIed house. the re-
suit of a most internal system of class -legisla-
ton which fixes the money-rate, the freight
rate. the Federal tariff rate and the State tax
rate in such an atrociously unjust manner,
that the common producers of wealth are
robbed of it as fast as they produce it.
honestly believe that the average toiler is
worse off now. at a time when-as the Presi-
dent says-the benefciaries Of ss-legsla-
ton have increased their wealth by SAL ,000-
100000, than he was during the years follow
ing the Civil War.
The people have no surplus money, and, I'M
der the present system, cannot have any.
Instead Of alternating this widespread con-
dition Of distress, suffering, and despair,
as he promised that he would do, Woodrow
Wilson has aggravated and intensified it,

BUSY DAYS IN LUCHOWFU.
Minnie Vautrin.

One evening I invited five old ladies to dinner
party. Among the guests was the wife of Shi
GWei BiaO. They really seemed to enjoy the
queer tasteess foreign food and managed the
knives and forks unusually we'll. And how they
did laugh when played "Jenkins!'' Mrs. Shi
several times begged us to stop, saying she would
be i'll if didn't. / really believe the Chinese
women enjoy games more than do.
Several evenings later l invited four young
women to dinner. How grateful I am that can
spend several hours with the Chinese women and
not feel brain fag afterwards!
Then on two successive Saturday afternoons I
invited groups Of about twenty women each to
listen to talks upon hygiene, given by a nurse
from DR.. Mary Stones hospital. The first satur-
day about twenty mothers of school girls came,
and on the second Saturday about twenty of my
neighbors. And how they do enjoy looking at
stereOscopic views! I imagine those pictures are
sabiects of conversation in their homes for weeks
after their visit.
Alexander Paul, Wuhu China, has spent about
four months in overseeing the construction of
dykes in that district for the Chinese. This enter
prise will help to save great property interests
from the devastation Of mighty floods 1t will
help also to save large numbers of people from
famine and want. About seven thousand men
were employed. The cost was $35 GOO gold,
which is great sum in China. The average
amount paid a Chinaman for such labor is only
few cents per day, that $500 goes long
ways. The funds were all in the hands Of Mr.
Paul, SO implicit the confidence of the Govern
mcnt in the missionary. AS a recognition of his
efficiency and faithfulness the Chinese erected
large taDlet III ms hOnOr. This is characteristic
Of the Chinese. What was done by Mr. Paul will
tell nightly for the advancement of the interest
