S. ABULL COMPANY. or General utis. inese snow icai eira with the rainy season the activity of the Filipinos has by no means ceased. Every operation of our troops, although Invariably attended with brilliant success, according tK General Otis, and with small loss on our side and frightful loss to the enemy, has been undertaken confessedly for the purpose of repelling or preventing encroachments on the part of the enemy, or getting rid of the disagreeable proximity of their sharpshooters- Yesterday comes In addition a letter, presumably un-censored, dated Manila, July 22, telegraphed from San Francisco, August 24, which says: "In Manila talk of the ending of the war deals no longer withvweeks, but with months, and even years.

The whole effort --of the insurgents for three months was to hold ofE Americans until their ally, the rains, came. In this they have been as successful as they could have hoped. Unless affairs take some unforeseen turn the Filipinos will resume the war in the fall with fresh spirit and a rerJenished stock of arms and ammunition." Of money, it is added, the leaders of the insurrection have no lack while they control the resources of a large and an exceedingly rich country. Thus the information received by the press and the observation of intelligent and impartial correspondents upon the spot by no means tally with the impressions of our optimistic President. The fact Is McKinley cannot afford to be otherwise than optimistic.

It is his war. He embarked the country in it without consulting either Congress or the people. The acquisition of the Philippines was his Idea. He insisted through his docile agents and brokers in Paris upon the surrender of the Philippines by Spain as the condition npon which he would agree to make peace with the latter country, although nothing of the kind was stipulated, or even hinted at, in the protocol. Rather than miss what he must have thought at the time was a fine bargain, he agreed to pay Spain 20.000,000 for her title, such as it was, and to take the chance of licking the Filipinos into submission.

How many millions in addition to the paid to Spain have since been expended in the vain effort to perfect the Spanish title by war and bloodshed the American people do not know. For Mr. McKinley to confess, nnder such circumstances, that the war is likely to be prolonged indefinitely, or even for two years, which will be after the close of his Administration, or for one year, which will be until the nominating conventions meet in 1900, would be to confess that the principal measure of his Administration has been a bloody and expensive failure; that his purchase of the Philippines was a terrible blunder, and that the war which he has since been uselessly waging has been nothine less than a crime. Naturally, Mr. McKinley shrinks from a confession so painful and mortifying to himself, and so destructive of all his hopes of being his own successor.

Probably he cannot afford to admit the truth, even to BRAGER OF BALTIMORE. RAGER OF BALTIMORE, BRAGER OF BALTIMORE. BRAGER OF BALTIMORE. BRAGER OF BALTIMORE. BRAGER OF BALTIMORE.

1699. PREJUDICE. Although intelligent persons will readily admit the evils of prejudice, considered in the abstract, yet there are few who are entirely free from It. In religion or in polities, if In nothing else, most men have what are called decided views, and these views prejudice them to such an extent that they are incapable of considering a question relatrd thereto with Impartiality. It Is perhaps scarce'y fair to stigmatize as prejudice a judgment founded upon thorough study of a snbjeet, even though it be held tenaciously in the facf of after-discovered evidence.

Thus a party man who knows thoroughly the political history of his country attaches himself to a party not because of its name, but because It represents well-settled principles of government of which he approves. He may appear to be prejudiced in his opposition to new ideas, but it is only because they are not in accord with the principles which, after long study, he has adopted as his guide. He does net pre-judge through bias or through Ignorance, but because he is so familiar with political principles that his knowledge nets as a touchstone for truth. But there are very few people who have such knowledge or such a clear conception of guiding principles that they can pass Instant judgment upon new questions. By far the greater number of men are prejudiced because of their Ignorance or because they allow their feelings to control their Judgment.

Prejudice of this kind is injurious to the individual because it blinds him to the truth. He is even ignorant of his Ignorance and is, therefore, not in condition to learn. But prejudice is not necessarily injurious to society as a whole. Without it there wonld be great difficulty in organizing sects or parties, and even patriotism would suffer if men did not blindly support their government, but should essay each for himself to determine impartially for or against his own country in disputes with foreign powers. At the same time the Interest of the individual is to be promoted by increase of knowledge, and increase of knowledge sweeps away many prejudices.

The aim of the individual should, therefore, be to cultivate a judicial frame of mind, to keep his judgment free from the control of his emotions and to establish a habit of careful study and inquiry before passing judgment upon any question. In this way he will avoid the worst forms of prejudice, though It Is not likely that he can altogether free himself from such likes and dislikes as will warp his mind to some extent. In trying to avoid prejudices one should not go to the other extreme of being without opinions. Every man should have opinions, based upon knowledge, guiding principles of religion, morality, politics, but he should keep his opinions from degenerating Into mere prejudices by study and argument and by giving fair consideration to the opinions of other people differing from his own. PROPIIESYIXO SMOOTH THINGS.

There is a solemn Judgment pronounced in Scripture against a people who say to their prophets: "Prophesy not nto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits." We are afraid that the warning is one which is entirely overlooked by those who insist upon predicting the early termination of all our troubles in the Phiiippines. It is now seven months nearly since fighting In the Island of Luzon began, and there has been hardly a week that the country has not been treated to renewed assurances from Washington that "the backbone of the rebellion was broken" and that the restoration of peace was near at hand. The only person, who seems to be really deceived by these assurances, so often renewed, only to prove false and unfounded, is President McKinley himself. Whether he is an optimist by nature, or whether It Is part of his policy to "prophesy smooth things' and to appear to believe that his prophecies will come true, the result is the same, the war goes on, becanse Mr. McKinley always thinks it is just coming to an end.

A recent letter from Mr. H. L. Nelson, the editor of Harper's Weekly, written from Lake Champlain, casts valuable as well as interesting light upon the President's state of mind upon the subject of the Philippines. Mr.

Nelson writes: "I have had an Interesting talk with the President, and I shall set down without comment or suggestion of opinion, and, I trcst, in perfect fairness, my impressions of him and of his opinions and purposes concerning the things political which are most -interesting to the country." Mr. Nelson takes care to say that he Is not writing in the capacity of a reporter or Interviewer, still less as an organ or niouth-pu-ce of the President. "It must be borne in mind by the readers of Harper's Weekly," he says, "that I am not speaking for the President. He has not authorized me to say anything. I am not quoting him.

I am simply telling my knowledge and impressions of him and his opinions. The value that thoy have depends upon the fact that they have been obtained at first hand. They are not filtered through a Cabinet officer, or even through a private secretary." Continuing, Mr. Nelson writes: "The President is convinced that only a part of the Philippines people are in revolt; in fact, that the Tagals alone are doing the fighting. He intends to put down the insurrection, and to put it down speedily, and with much convincing energy in time, I to permit Senator Burrows to vote for him for President next year.

This much has been hinted at. and openly said iu the news of the day, but I repeat it because the President expresses his confidence with bo much vigor that I am inclined to believe that he is well assured that the wretched war is near its end." In marked contrast with this cheerful optimism of our President is all the news which comes from Manila, even that contained in the carefully censored dispatches which hare passed under the blue pencil himself. He must not only continue to "prophesy smooth things" to the people, but his ministers and "seers" must do the same. There can be no doubt that the editor of Harper's Weekly has correctly oortraved the President's state of mind. To the people there is this Important warning involved with MeK.iniey atwtne helm there can be no change in the course of the ship, although that lead to fur ther loss and disaster.

To save tne snip and avert disaster a new pilot is an in dispensable necessity. CHINA MUCH AS SHE WAS. After all the pother about railway con cessions in China, not one new line is being constructed. The parties who asked for the concessions did not, it seems, have the monev with which to build and equip lines hundreds of miles long through a country cut up with rivers, canals and mountains. They counted on selling their concessions to companies, or on raising the capital by singing the prnlses of the trade routes they might temporarily control.

Few capitalists, howeTer, are found will ing to put their money Into Chinese railroads, in view of the uncertain future of that country. Railroad stocks and bonds are none too secure in countries having stable and efficient governments, where the people are eager for railroads. Much less secure would such Investments be in a country like China, where revolution is Impending and where the people hate the railroad as the work of "foreign devils." But be the cause what it may, the projected railroads are not being built. That great line from Pekin to Hankow, over which diplomacy labored hard for weary months. Is as backward as many other lines with less brilliant prospects.

Things remain much as they were. Even the "open door" as a matter of fact remains open. Logically the "spheres of influence" doctrine has vanquished the doctrine of the open door, but no port of China that was ever open to foreign trade is now closed, and England and Japan have got many opened that were formerly shut. The Germans and Russians still ket-pen the ports they have seized. The discussions of Chinese affairs in the last several years have been chiefly prophecies of evils that may occur under certain contingencies.

But facts are very much as they were. SENIOR COLONEL. Editor F. V. King, of theSt.

Mary's Beacon, has been urged to become a candidate for the House of Delegates on the Democratic ticket, but declines with thanks, not because he is indifferent to the call of his fellow-citizens or to the in terests'of his party, but because he is well enough satisfied with the honorable position he already occupies. He declines because, to use his own words, he is "al ready senior colonel on the Baltimore Sun's staff and adjutant of Bradley Johnson camp and is not seeking any more glory." There are few people who know when they have enough. Editor King is a "colonel on The Sun's staff," in the sense of being its esteemed correspondent in St. Mary's county, as his father was before him. We commend the good judgment of "the colonel" In resisting the temptation to become a candidate for anything but the good will of his intelligent constituency.

He will be able to serve them far better holding his present commission than by a certificate of election at the polls or a commission from the Governor with the great seal of Maryland attached. "WINSTON'S SHOW. Winston, N. Is closely connected with Baltimore In trade relations, and its growth in business and population is watched with interest by Baltlmoreans. Winston is one of the most prosperous inland cities In North Carolina, and this prosperity Is largely due to the enterprise of Its business men.

They believe in every legitimate means of advertising its attractions. For several years successful tobacco fairs have been annually held, but this year there is to be a great horse show in October In conjunction with the local county agricultural fair. One of the best half-mile tracks in the South is being constructed, together with a spacious grandstand, a large exhibition hall. etc. A street "Midway" is also being laid off and will be lined with "genuinely meritorious attractions." Hundreds of well-bred running and trotting horses are expected to be entered for the liberal purses which will be provided.

Many thousands of visitors are looked for. SCHLEY TO VISIT ATLANTA. Maryland's gallant and distinguished sou, Kear-Admiral WIntield Scott Schley, has aceetted a cordial invitation to visit Atlanta, and ispend several days there during the coming fall. The Invitation came from Governor Candler, Mayor Woodward and the officials of the Atlanta Business Men's League. The invitation assured the Admiral that the "people held him in such regard that they would consider a visit from him in the light of a.
