Have we, as a people; anything to gain by joining hands with Great Britain in a Napoleonic pol icy of world-conquest? Although the administration is at present carefully concealing any dieposi tion it mar have tn antm uch a policy, the disposition is belieyed to existand that question may become leading one in next year's presidential campaign. In diplomatic circles it is heHAv- that the first steps toward such a policy haye already been taken, and that the suspension of Dr. Bedloe, as United States canton, China, at the request of Jhe goyernment of China is one of them, althtugh it is stated at the State Department that the sus pension of Dr. Bedloe was brought about by some irregularis in nection with his issuing papers to an American ressel engaged in supplying arms and ammunition to the Filipinos and in issuing cer tificates to Chinese merchants trading witih the Pnilippines. (The present attitude of great ness occupied by the United States auainea by following from the days of Washington a policy o strictly attending to our1 own affairs and leaying the people of other nations tn An k mi.. glamor of foreign conquest has tMrned the head of th rwwi- otner nationa moi i . l , v-uioo in me past, ana a lew months ago there P-.cu io De danger the Ameri cans would be blinded by the same glamor, but the common sense for wbich Americans are renowned has cofe to the rescue, and our people 5rt fualiZ1Dg not on the meaning, but the danger of the adoption of an imperialistic policy by the United States, and present indications are that that realimti! Htn i. . ( rim result in a restoration of the Democratic party to power, and a resumption orthe only safe foreign policy for m goyernment to follow. -Men who at the beginning sup. ported the exDanalnn nAi;nw li administration are now severely criticising the results obtained by following that policy. For j sta;nce, the Washington Post, which has o all intents and purposes Y. 17 Vi , ua 8nee says ed- itoally : -Either we Irave not the giu.1 .and the temperament for successful colonization, 0r we bare Deen grotesquely unfortunate in the selection of our agents. It is impossible to see at this moment respect we have accomplished anything important either in Cuba or in t&e Philip pines. In the latter we have un dertaken to set op the regime of -w una oraer and civilization, and we have failed utterly. In the case of Cuba we have unfWtAbr, to give the people self-government, or at least to test their capacity in that line, and we have done neither. In the Philippines wehave for six months or more ensraired in n ttv and perfectly fruitless war with the natives. In Cuba the, govern ment consists of a military autoc racy, little if any more beneficent than that conducted hv th r,., iin governor generals in time of peace. In Luzon it is actual war we have upon our hands. In Cuba, it is smouldering discontent, tur bulence in various parts of the isl- uu, ana a zatuous and feeble tyr anny at Havana." Two designs for the new K .n. .er certificate, one having upon its face a vignette of Washington and the other one of Jefferson, have been submitted to Secretary Gage. It is said that a Republican sena tor heard about this and at once hurried to see Secretary Gage to tell him not to adopt the Jefferson design, because, if he did, it might UWOffl srnown as a Democratic note. Be that as it may, treasury ofilcials say that the Jefferson de sign is not luely to be adopted. .The prediction that all of the 35,000 volunteers, authorized by congress would be enlisted, has been almost verified. An order for the enlistment of one more addi tional regiment which-will bring vu' uumoer or volunteers nearly up to Jhe limit, has teen issued by Secretary Root, and the new rAri. ment will be composed of negroes The officers will, of course, be white men. Notwithstanding the statement of Secretary Gage that the treas ury would be able to meet all of the expenses incidental to the large army we are preparing to send to the Philinnin 'in other govermental expenses, with out asking congress to impose new wim or issuing more bonds, expert financiers who have care fully studied the matter, and whose pinions are not influenced by po litical exigences, still predict that mure Donas or more taxes will be necessary, and when it is re mem. "ef tnt there was a deficit of $90,000,000 in round figures, at the close of the last fiscal year, the prediction seems reasonable. It may also be mentioned that spe cial agents of the Internal Bureau are known to have been en gaged for stamp taxes. Dresumahlv with an eye to more congressional legislation in that direction.

On a soft, clean pallet In a corner of the police office last night two little children girls, aged four and two, re spectivelypillowed their curly little heads and slept the sleep of childhood and innocence. Kind hearts that beat under blue, brass-buttoned uniforms had made the bed and had darkened the room, leaving only one dim light mere : uaa given tne little ones milk: and bread and had put them to sleep with the tenderness of a mother's love ana care. - . The picture which one looked at In the office was a beautiful and touching one beautiful as a study and touch ing as an illustration of the kindness of heart of the men who wear the uni forms. ;v It was the old story a drunken iavner, negiectea children. ; The man, D. B. Patterson, came here yesterday from Concord, bring ing with him his two little children whom he was taking to Maxton. He left his wife in Concord. drunk soon after reaching . here and was seen late in the afternoon, stagger ing about the streets, carrvi Tiff thtk I youngest child and leading the oldest. Just before being put up he fell in the gutter in front of Jordan's with the youngest child. Bystanders picked the child up. The man, on eettinc un. tnnt the child again and staggered down the street, people looking on the sad sight with pitying eyes. It was but a few minutes after when thn nnlfoa mrroatoA Patterson and took the children from him. He was put In the Tombs, and the little ones cared for in the office. Last night Chief Orr'phoned Chief Harris, of Concord, to tell Mrs. Patter son to come or send after the children. Chief Harris 'phoned In reply that he had told her of her husband's conduct toward the children and that her cries and prayers for them were heart rendering, i ! All through the night policemen kept watch over them. At 5 o'clock this morning Chief Orr will send them to Concord in charge of Mr. Ed. Stone. Patterson served a term of several weeks recently on the Mecklenburg chain gang, as he was unable to pay a fine for drunkenness. Charlotte Observer. What a Lemon Will Do. Planted Three Million.
