War. E. C h a n d l er of New Hampshire, was defeated for re-election to the U. S. senate iu January last and that fact gave certain democrats a great amouut of sat isfaction. It was said to be a rebuke for hie opposition to W. A. Clark in the mat ter of the bribery charges. This was ab surd m view of the fact that every mem ber of the committee on privileges and election sustained the charges of bribery. Wm, E. Chandler has long been promi nent as a senator and in the councils of the republican party. The president has therefor» been prompt to rocognize his eminent services by appointing him pres- ! ident of the Philippine commission iu place <»f Judge Taft.

C lark was sworn in Monday as a United Slates senator without pro test and it is not likely that any further action will ever be taken on tho report of the committee on privileges and elections charging him with having bribed his way into the senate in 1899. Tho incident seems to be closed. M rs . C arrie N ation who is carrying on a crusade against saloons, was born in Woodford county, Kentucky, and in tended the district school with Gen.

We wduld have t o . go back to barbarous ages to find anythipg more inhuman, brutal an,d shameful than are the terms imposed on the Chinese by the allied powors/ These allied powers demand that two of tin? leaders iu the Boxer war shall be banished for lifo; several others must be beheaded; others may be permitted to end their own lives by suicide, otherwise they must be killed; two or three must be- ‘strangiod’ , while three that are already dead must have tho death sentence passed on them by the Chinese government in order to further disgrace their names and their relatives who are presumed to' have sympathized with them. t It is gratifying to every American that tho United States government has never assented to these outrageous terms bat that, it, has on every occasion protested against them. China should sailer for the horrors of that Boxer war for which tho Chinese government was responsible The punishment should be severs enough so that it will.never be forgotten. But it should uot be barbaric or inhuman.
