"MY COUNTRY 'TIS OF THEE." y.There is considerable discussion in the East just now over Ihe propriety of "My Country 'Tis of Thee" as a national anthem. It seems to be an opportune time as all the nations of the earth are looking toward Amor ica 'where the greatest exposition in all history has just been opened. .It is claimed that it is suns to E ngland's naii-.nal air, "God Save the
King" and also the air of "Heil di ira Sieger Ki-autz," the anthem of Saxony. And.be fore all these it is said to have been used in celebratir.a the martial successes of Louis Fourteenth, as "Louis the Victorioir. " ' The chief objection to it, is wher bands play it without the words. Only the words can decide the nationl'ity. 'The real American national air is "The Star Spangled Banner," and the navy department has issued orders that it be played both morning -and evening at the hoisting and furling of the national colors. But poetically and vocally, it is almost impossible and cannot compare with the sweetness and melody of "My Country 'Tis of Thee." The latter air, however, docs not please the haters of monarchy but when the words are sung, it is distinctively American, composed by one of America's distinguished poets and citizens: ; j ;1 "My Country 'Tis of Thee, " Sweet Land of Liberty, Of Thee I Sing." Land of Liberty liberty bought on a hundred battle fields of the Revolution. Is it not appropriate? "Land where my fathers died Land of the pilgrim's pride From Every Mountain side Let freedom ring." Is not this good enough for any American? It is inspiring and -will live as long as there are human voices to sing it. "I love thy rocks and rills Thy woods and templed hills My heart with rapture thrills. " This is patriotic. Tt belongs to no section. It can be sung all over the length and breadth of this great nation. It appeals to every American and causes him to feel proud of his native land. "Long may our land be bright With freedom's holy light; Protect us by Thy mjght, Orat God,A our Kingi' '"' ,v "Can't von see the heads bared a those words are reverently suncr? America is safe as long as the nation's song is in the breasts of her people; as long s she realizes that the liberty that w is worth fighting for is doubly precious in these davs of peace and plenty. Tpda . some of us forget our pattriotism. "We forget the need of intense citizenship and nnswerving Joyyalty. Bur when the band plays and the words of the song of songs roll from a million lips, patriots are born anrairi, the starry flag becomes dearer, and we are again worthy children of a mighty nation. We need more patriotism, more onsistent living, more enthusiasm for our country, but we have a national hlrymn" as -broad and ns inspiring as the brain of man can conceive and the hand of man can write, i England may sing it, but it is truly' and grandly American."
The proficiency of our schools is well illustrated in the following
from the New York World:
"A prominent financial company of this city recently advertised for a 'boy 1G years old, good at figures; $10 a week salary to commence.' Thirty-four boys presented themselves. All had .)een graduated from New York grammar schools, and many of them had spent a year or two in high school. "Nineteen were at once rejected because they could neither write nor spell well. The remaining fifteen were asked to find the interest on $120.80 for foir months and fifteen days at 5 per 'cut. Two were equal to the task. The correct answer ?s $?.27. Thirteen of the answers ranged from that to 4S1.44." This has no reference to local conditions but furnishes food for thought.
Theri are 171,000 churches and 246,000 jaloons in the United States. Considering the fact that the saloons are open about 18 hours a day for at least six days in each week, the churches will have to keep "open house" mere than three hours on Sunday each week. They will have to do this if they replace the influence of the saloon with that righteousness that "exalteth a nation."

Cak Upheer, of the " steamship Alps, o& .the '.United Fruit J company 's line; vfis murdered ;.on - the Cloree today wjiile resisting an attempt' to rob him by 'two highwaymen. ; . . - REVIEW OF REVIEWS FOR MAY. ;:The Review of Reviews for May provides a group of entertaining and instructive articles on the RussowJapv anese war and cognate topics. In addition to the careful editorial treatment of the events of the month in "The Progress of the World;" there is a sketch of the great sea-fighter, Admiral Togo, written by a Japanese followed by "Fifty Years of Japan," from the pen of a Japanese .journalist, AdaehLKinnosuke, who sums up in this paper the striking progress of his people during the half-century that has elapsed since the' ships of Commodore Perry opened Japan to
the. influences of Western civilization.
There are also brief summaries of "What the People Read in Japan," "Japanese Opinion of the American Attitude on the War," and "The Effect of the War on the Internal
Affairs of Russia;" and Dr. Frank Waldo contributes an interesting
resume of "Climatic Features of tho
Field of the War."
While the Japanese mind stands
for-poetry, color and refined philoso
phy, there is an element of adroit evasiveness in the character of the people that would make a Japanese
domination of Asia a serious barrier
to the civilized advance of the rest
of the world, even if such domination did not prepare for a future Morigo lian invasion of Europe.
Japanese standards of business are
not favorable to the development of American trade. Among these acts is one which an American consul has called to the attention of the United States government. It is the wholesale appropriation on the part of citizens in Japan of American trademarks. Enterprising American man
ufacturers have for several years been building up a trade in Japan. Bicycles, typewriters, safes, engines,
telephones, watches, guns, scientific instruments and hundreds of other ar
tides were beinjr introduced. But now
a snag has been encountered which nullifies much of the pioneer commercial activities of American shippers and manufacturers. The Japanese, being incomparably elevercsin imitation, engaged in the manufacture of the same kind of goods. "So long as they' confined themselves to competition it was simply a contest in price and workmanship. But the
i Japanese have not stopped there. They have secured in the patent office at Tokio registration for themselves of the actual trademarks of American and other foreign articles,
and are now manufacturing these goods in Japan, name and all.
Furthermore, they have gone into he courts and obtained judgment for
damasres from American firms tor selling American commodities bearing Japanese trademarks. In other words,
they have stolen the good name of
American articles, and are now invok
ing Japanese law to prosecute the
victim. It is not surprising that the reputable - dealers who have suffered
from this Asiatic outrage upon com
merce forsee in the Japanese advance
possible menace to the trade; ex
pansion of the rest of the world;---'

A great many of the minority fellows are saying: "There ought to be no partisanism in city politics; vote for the man." If there were an independent citizens' ticket, there would be some excuse for this method of procedure. But there is not and Richmond ought to give a rousing Republican majority as an introduction to the state and national campaigns.
The Pomocratic papers (now that the election is on) advise Republicans to vote the Democratic ticket. We hope that no Republican will heed the advice of the hyphenated sheet onnorth ninth. That paper is only Democratic when an election is about to take place.
The Richmond Canning Company cannot do business without material Corn a id tomatoes, etc. The farmers are tho people most benefitted by

INTERURBANCORPORATION
SUES GUARANTEE 0. (Indianapolis Journal.) . . The Indianapolis and Eastern In-
terurban Railway Company yesterday
filed a suit in the Federal Court against the Oceanic Accident and Guaranty Company of London, England. The railway company avers
that it held a policy in the company
to nrotect it from suits for accidents
from any of its employes. The com
pany further alleges that in 1901' one
of its employes, Charles B. Aridis, was injured in a collision on the com
pany's road in such a way that he has
never been able to work since. The
agents of the guaranty company, it is claimed, told , the. railway company that it would be reimbursed for any money it payed put for the relief of Andis. The" company' claims that it paid out $407.03 and that the guaranty company would pay nothing. Andis also brought suit against the railway company for $2,000 and costs, which was awarded by a Ilancock county court.
