THE OBSERVER. TUUItBDAy OCTOBEH 2D, 1903 FAYETTEVILLE N. C. I. J HALI, Idltor and Proprlitor, I, I SiLI, Ir.,Otnral Iiulitii Xang'r Itublubid ib HIT TUB 'OPUN DOOR " IS CHINA. There is, of oooria, a genuine foun dation for tbe desire in Ibis ooontry for n "open door" to China, for onr cotton it-. .1 ; 11. o..L nJllli-BipBoiaiiy iDoe,a iB4nej30Oin, . wbioh make tbe eoaraer fabrioi And a remunerative market there. But a good deal more is board of this field for ctimmeial endeavor tbao it deserves, beornte of political necessity. Oae of tbe chief reasons advanced by tbe Republicans for holding tbe Philippines in subjection was tbe alleged necessity for naval stations for our warships and a base of operations in ease of war near to tbe teeming millions of onr Oriental customers. the significance of tbe London cable gram, wbicb we published tha other day, in which it was stated that since tbe Eastern question has assnmed tbe acnte form of threatened war between Russia and Japau the eyes cf tbe world aro turned to the United States. Ic i.-. toggested tbat this country is the one power that can prevent war in tba: quarter. In other words, the eyes of tbe world are turned to America because the wily nations of Europe hope tbat we may poll their chestnut out of tbe fire. Tbey are aware tbat Mr. Hay's Chinese treaty will soon come before tbe Senate for ratification. As turning, of coarse, tbat it w.il be favor ably acted npon, onr European friends imagine tbat we will join Japan in forcing Russia to abandon Manchnna, bee j use tbe aforesaid treaty concedes the so-oalled ports cf Mukden and Antnog to onr free commercial ingress. But our astute and wide-awake Washington correspondent, Mr. Ed wards, gave in his yesterday's letter a view of the valueleasneas of this treaty which we have no donbt is the exact truth, and which will, if onr Democratic leaders be wise, be duly dwelt cpon when tbe question comes op in tbe Beoate. He said: "Tbe disagreement between Russia 1 and Japan and tbe utter break down j of tbe much-heralded 'open door' in Manchuria has aWrmed the export j merchants of the United S'ates, and 1 they have sounded a note of warning 1 to President Roosevelt and the Repnb- I lican leaders, tbat Instead of aiding.. tne enlargement 01 our business in Asii, they have virtually closed tbe door that was at least partly open. That Russia will ever withdraw from Manchuria is not within the realm cf probability; she owns tbe railroads and the banks: the Chinese authorities are subservient to the Russian repre sentatives; In a word, Manchuria is Russianized Tbe boast of the Ad ministration that tbe treaty just con eluded with China gives us two open ports in that country Is, therefore. worthless, unless Russia opens their doors, for she bas the key to both cf tbem. Even If these two ports were open, are they of value? Mookden, one of the two, is on a small river a hundred miles from tbe sea, Accessible by a scow, and Nlu Chwang, at the mouth of tbe stream. Is occupied by tbe Russians Tbe other Is a village on the coast, but tbere is no barber, and so sboal Is tbe offing tbat no man of war could approach within twenty miles Tbe merchant who tries tn get any trade through these 'open doors' will not bless John Hay and tie Re publican paty.y If the news'from the country which tbe returning members of Congress bring back to Washington next month Indicates a close fight for tbe presi dency next year, the Reputli:acs would not hesitate to use the treaty rights Involved In our relation to the Manchurlan question as a pretext for war with Rnaeia. It was the Spanish war whtchdefeatcd tbe Democrats In 1900, and a war with Rnssla would serve a like purpose tn 1904 It is next to Impossible to turn out the party In power at the outbreak of war, and the Republicans are far from be ing Ignorant of tbe truth of tbat propo sllion. Desirable, therefore, as the "open door" In China may be, it will be well if onr Democratic statesmen take a leaf out of Mr. Edwards's book, and demonstrate tbat it la not to be pro moted throngb Mr. Hay's treaty and the war that might be fomented In consequence of it. ItelBia Iitmi W were very much surprised to hear last Friday afternoon, tbat Miss Rosa Laogston, assistant teacher in Stedmac High Sebool, and Mr. Henry Elmore, of Mount Olive, were to be mariied Saturday morning. Tbe ceremony was performed by Rev. 8. A. 8moot, of Fayetteville, at tbe home of Mrs. Lixxie R. Strickland at eleven o'clock. Tbe bridal party left on tbe twelve o'clock train for Durham, where they will make their borne in tbe fotnre. Miss Fannie Smith, of Chance, Sampson oonnty, entered school here last week Mrs. D C. Qeddie and children, of Trenton, N. C, are visiting at the home of Mr. Bemiee Maxwell, near 8tedman. Mr. R M. Strioklaod has a position as salesman in Hnske's groeery store in Fayetteville. Master Horaoe Millar, who spent tbe trimmer at Stedman with his annt, Mrs. Edward Bettom, has returned to fail home at Tampa, Florida. A series of meetings will begin at C'kbury Churob next Bnnday.

The Warreoton Reeord contains a jast and appreciative obituary of Cap tain William J. White ot that town, who died 00 the 23 J of September. His father was the late Mr. 'John White, tbe trusted agent ot North Carolina in England dnring tbe great war, and his mother was Miss Jones of the loflaen tial Warren oonnty family ot tbat name. There never was a truer man, or a imer. soldier ot the Coofedereoyj than William J. White so modest, un selfish and intelligent, and so eoorag eons io every phase ot life. Australia, following the example of tbe L'oited States, has determined that its federal capital shall be oreated, aa Washington was, "from the ground op," and it has set apart a district, conveniently located, of 1000 square miles aa tbe federal territory. There is a village in this territory called Tnmut, and tbe accounts in the papers appa reatly assume that that is to be the name of the capital eity which is to be bail: therein. Not a very inspiring name for tbe metropolis ot a great nation; but, to word tossers, it has tbe advantage of holding its own no matter i which end yon begin to spell it from, ' i The old adage in England that the : Libera s beat tbe bnshss and the Tories get (be game, finds a notable illnstra lion in the stepping-stone to Home rvo.e which the present Tory govern ment of Great Britian has supplied in its new and liberal land policy, a poliey by which peasants and tenants may be com? land owners through loans from the government itself. Mr. Gladstone, in the I'nith of bis power, risked his all in bis famous proposition for Home ; Raie for Ireland. He lost, and his party, rent in twain, went oot of power, ' and bas not yet recovered a serions foothold in tbe politics of the United 1 Kingdom. But Mr. Balfour's Tory ad ministration bas laid the sore foonda ' tion for tbe accomplishment of Glad stone's purpose, and has strengthened its party immensely thereby. The re lation of the Republicans in onr own c:uatry to the Democrats presents many, points ot similarity to that of the two great English parties, and it is not at ad improbable that ont ot the present wild-aat aspirations of the Ra pao.ican stronghold, Wall Street, will eventaailr eome a Repoblieanix. d method for remooetix ng silver. a:kly liaumeat at Caakarlaasl Oetaij.
