"Even if Japan be victorious in its conflict with Russia, I can see pothing ahead for the masses of people of that race but a long period of tribulation," said Mr. F. Rawdon, of London, England, who is at the New Willard and who has lived in Japan for many years, says the Washington Post." "It must not be supposed that because the Japanese have displayed extraordinary military prowess that they eDjoy good economic conditions, or that there has been any great improment in the status of the common people since the abolition of the feudal system, some thirty-five years ago. The masses still subsist on meals costing from 2 to 5 cents, and the ! man over tbere who is able to eat a 50 ceDt dinner is a grandee of the first magnitude. Any very great change for the better is impossible in a country that has only 148,000 square miles and a population of at least 45,000,000. Added to this that there is only 11 per cent, of arable land in Japan, and it is obvious that for the multitude there is no escape from the grinding poverty and from long hours of poorly paid soil. Modern methods copied from the East have brought to Japan many newly established industries, but the poor people who crowd their factories work for wages that the meanest laborer in Eogland or the United States would scorn. "Now with the increasing hardshiDS that the war entails, thousands of Japanese after its close will wish hoffcr thfiir enndition bv comioar to tbe Uoited States, and I have not the slightest doubt byfc that they are goiDg to prove a source of trouble to your people if some legislation of a restrictive character is not adopted. Wherever they come they will work for smaller wages thsn Americans or l sdv other white men, and this will beget an agitation such as was bad in California against the Chinese, and probably result in the same exclusion/' .

Brabham, of Olar, S C., in a letter to tbe State, claims that ill OK AAA AAA I Lit) OUUIL1 Will pittuii auco of cotton this year and under normal conditions will make 14,000,000 or 15,000,000 bales. He seems to base bis estimate on the heavy shipment of fertilizers and ibe number of mules and horses which have been purchased by the farmers this year. Mr. Brabham besides being an intelligent farmer is a wide awake business man and must have some good reaBon for making this statement, but we hope that be is in error this time. Should Mr. Brabhanrs esiimate be correct, then as he says "Nothing but the Almighty can keep cotton above 5 centy by Octob^i 1st, 1905." Distressing. Mrs Hetty GreeD. the noted financier, was talking about the vicissitudes of housekeeping, says the San AotoDio Express. "Accidents occur in housekeeping," she said, "as distressing and horrible as any that occur in the world of fioance. "A woman of Bellows Falls gave a party last year. Pie was served at the party, apple pie, with the crust very pret'ilv ornamented. The woman called the cook into the dining room. " 4AEary,' she said, 'this cru9fc looks very nice.

To the Editor of the Dispatch: The little town of Roans Prairie was amused by a sbatn battle not long since, which scattered those who knew nothing about it, especially the darkies. That's right boys, why I not have some fun. A glass facorfcy is beingr erected near the town on the HGNrailroad, ; which will make several articles of I glass. Farmers are rapidly rushing their farm work. We are expecting another railroad through the Prairie in the near fu| ture, the line already beiDg surveyed. | The Company is the Trinity and ! Brazos Valley. There has been ; several surveys through the Prairie but this is said to be the only oDe that is successful. We certainly need another road and depot.

Wolfe, of Bear Grove, Iowa, cheated death. He says: "Two years ago I had kidney trouble, which caused me greatpain, suffering and anxiety, but I took Electric Bitters, which effected a complete cure. I have also found them of gTeat- benefit in general debility and nerve trouble, and keep them constantly I on hand, since, as I find they have no equal.'' Sold by The Kaufmann Drug co., druggist.

So when | they arrived at the next hotel the j groom called the colored head waiter. "Now, George," he said, "we have | been bothered to death by people j staring at us because we are just j married. We want to be free from ! that sort of thing here. Now, here's i two dollars, and remember I trust | you not to tell people that we are just married, if they asked you. Understand?" "Yas, sab!" said George; "I understand." All went well that dav. But the i ! following morning when the couple { came down to breakfast the staring was worse than ever. Chambermaids I in the hall sDickered; the clerks behind the desk nudged each other; I everybody in the dining room stared. ! When the couole returned to their I room it was only to see a bead Bticki ing out of nearly every room down the long hall. This was too much. This was the limit! Angered beyond control, the groom went to the desk and called for the ! bead-waiter. I "Look here, vou old fool," said the * | groom, "didn't I give you two dollars | to protect my wife and myself from i this staring business?'' "?ae, sab, you did," said George. "Pon me sould, I didn't tell, sah." "Then how about this stariDgf asked the irate groom. "Its worse here than anywhere. Lid anybody ask if we were just married?"' j "Yas, sab; several folks did," rej plied George. : "Well, what did you tell them?" ! "I tole 'em, sah," replied the hoDf st negro, "you wuza't married at all." ? !
