TILLMAN'S SUGGESTION
The Interview from Senator Till
nan. ls very Interesting, especially aa
ie says that he la the author of the
institution and by-laws ot the party.
Ve have heard him say-in the cam
aign between Col. Hoyt and Mr. Mc
Iweeney-practically the same things
tuted In this letter from Waahlng
un. We know that Senator Tillman
ins long wished to reform the rules of
tarty.
It seems to UB that , the suggestion
te offers ls common sense, although
he machinery may be just a little blt
umbersome. We do not see bow the
?arty can get around making new
lub rolls anyway, as this should be
lone every two years, or the old ones
arefully revised, but as to the number
if coplea that are to bo made, that
uay be too great a tax upon the club
ifflcers, and the party hasn't much
nnds.
As to printing ot the names on the
lub rolls, we dont see why the news
tapers of the state should be willing
o do that gratis. We know that this
?per would print the names of all the
lub rolls If the party wished lt. and
here would be more tn thia county
han In oom* others.

THE SITUATION
IN MONGOLIA
New York. May 16.-The Asiatic In
stitute of lilia .city ltux mude public
tlvo firat of a series of reporta from
W. W. itoekhill. former Culled State?
minister to Chins, ?nd more recently
ambassador to Russia, later to Tur
key, on the situation In Mongolia, in
beilulf of the Asiatic Institution Mr. I
Itoekhill recently penetrated the re-j
ginns where one,, powerful Mongol
races have been trying to maintain its)
independence from the Republic of j
China.
The last limits and bomidar?rs o? ,
Pillia race, which seven centuries ago
I conquered nearly the whole of Asia.)
\*v? part of Europe, have begun to)
eapiiear. says Mr. Rockhill, in the

the land or the T?r.tar nafljpn that was

golia, which declared independence of
China during the r?vp]
hellion in China In 1012V. I
as the land of Khalkas.
The newly created state^den
i ?pot where ail that remains
Tartary is to survive or''pe
Mr. Fockhill. Here is all
left of perhaps the most wo
empire of all time, that er
horseback by Chenghis Khan. ?
Outer Mongolian aspirations tb'
alone is altogether dependent o
adjoining powers, says Mr. Rockhill.
"They know their helplessness and ll
thait for the present their fate is seal-ij
ed,, . In his opinion the Mongol race
tt-iii founder completely without thc
cooperation of Russia and China .It's
I only hope of existence is in being a
"buffer state" and becoming the head
I of that necklace of smaller unadvanc
j ed vassal nations bordering the pres
ent day greater Asiatic empires. As
such, if lt succeeds, he says, it will be
I a "damp course" between the powder
I magazine, of Russia. Japan and China.
"Except for the UBe of things that
I are brought them by the Chinese, with
I out whom they would go unclad and
haif starved, the Mongols remain as
originally known to us In the middle'}
of the thirteenth century," he adds. *~
Outers Mongol's asset with which
i to begin modern statehood are small.
It has one gold mine to tax and Its
chief trade If through Russian Kier,
elita on the northern boundary, where
exports in 1911 were valued at $2.500,*
OOO, Imports from Russia at $615,000
and from China $1,485.000 The only
other trade" mentioned ls that of $lftll
000,000 through the Kodbo In the I
We?t.' This* ie the Mongol Empire's1!
status in the scale of the moderns.
TRUST THE WHITE MAN
. /.
Is thc Advice of Booker Washington
to the Negroes,
Atlanta, May 16.-"Have faith m toe
white man, he is your friend." .,
Booker T. Washington, the negro
educator offered this advice to his
race in the course of an address herc
before the annual negro christian
students' conference. He declared
that notable progress in better co-'
operation between the negro and the
white races had been made in tho last
decade.
"By right living, obeping the laywa
and showing due deference to every
white man, you will demonstrate to
tho world what education mokes out
of the negroes .who obtain it," said
Washington, "and in this way you will
show the whlto man more vividly than
in any other way the need of educa
tion and gain, the cooperation even
more widely than at present."
The meting is being held under the
direction of John Mott, associate gen
eral secretary of the Young Men's
Christian Association.
CONVICT-MADE GOODS
tauscj Quite a Little Debate *n the
Culled States Sea***,
Washington, May 16.-After . warm
debate between opponents and advo
cates of the bill to prohibit tuporta
tlon of foreign convict made goods,
the senate today by a vote of 43 to 17,
laid on the table a motion to chango
the reference of the measure from
the manufacturers to the finance com.
mutee.
Senator EStone, author ot' the state
measure, wanted a similar bill from
the house In reference to the manu
fuctiires oommittee. He charged that
opposition arose from alleged fear ot
Southern Senators that the Aemerican
manufacturers of cotton bagging no
longer would no longer be compellee
to meet the "dishonest competition"
of foreign convict labor.
Senator Wllilms who wanted the bil?
sent to the finance committee, char
acterised the measure as a^'new me
thod for the cotton bagging trust to
devil the life out ot the cotton.bag
ging importers."

been besieged with applications for
pilot. Jobs. There seems to have been
a, general belief that sixty or more
idiots would be engaged upon tho op
