American Public Sentiment.

effective way of raising such force as would be
necessary TO aninvasion of Cuba would be TO in
crease the numeri al force of each company to
the standard OF 100 men. There are at present
70 regiments Of infantry and 10 regiments Of
cavalry and artillery. With each company
numbering 100 men, the army would be in
creased TO about 45 900 instead Of about 30 900
at present. such an organization would render
unnecessary the employment of any officers OF
the line in addition TO those belonging TO the
regular army, as in his opinion, a captain and
two leutensnts, the present allowance Of COM
missioned officers to a company, would be am
ply competent TO command in the field 100 men.
In many of the armies of European nations, for
instance, the general remarked, as many as go
men are led into action by captain and two
leutcnaIts. The additional men, he thought,
might be enlisted for the war, 50 that they
could be discharged upon the cessation OF hos
tilities. By this methed of increasing the per
sonnet of the army, the expense would be much
less than to attempt to put in the feld an en-
tirely new force. PROFESSIONALLY the most
speedy mode of raising the necessary troops for
immediate aggressive movements, would be to
call for volunteers, say $1,000 or 100000. From
double that number Of men could be secured

Death OF Judge wardInvv.

OooSh u - uNxo WaCula"s
We are panied to learn of the death, at
Abbeville. on Sunday morning. of Judge
David L Wardlaw, long known in this
State as learned lawyer, eminent jurist,
and accomplished gentleman. We have
no particulars az yet, and only infer that
his death was thu sequence of protracted
weak health, which manifested itself
more particularly in one or two paraly tic
strokes within the past two years. It is
no little loss, that OF q man trusted and
honoSed throughout long and busy life
in exalted and responsible positions. and
always equal to the highest expectations.
A great and good man, has gone, leaving
the memory OF good deeds, honestiand
valuable services to his State aud people,
and the fragrance Of q character pure,
unsullied and smiable in all the relations
OF life. The following is a brief biogra-
ply OF the deceased Judge:
'Jndge David Louis Wardlaw was
born in Abbeville County, in 1899, and
was at the time Of his death seventy -four
years old. At an. early age he entered
the South Carolina College, where lie
graduated with distinguished honors.
After leaving college, he was admitted
to the bar. and in 1922 attained consi-
derable distinction in the case of Ramsay
0s. Marsh, which arose under the will OF
Henry Laurens, and in which the statute
OF uses and trusts was first construed in
this State. At that time he was q CO.
partner of the late Governor Noble. In
December, 1886, he was elected Speaker
OF the House of Representatives, of
which he had been member for several
years, and he continued to serve in this
position, with distinguished ability, until
december. 184l, when he was elected to
the bench, to succeed Judge johnson.
his career on the bench is we'll known in
every part OF the. State. It continued
Tor over quarter OF q century, and was
ever marked by those ennobling traits of
mlnd and heart which tended 40 much to
eleYate and dignity the judiciary of South
Carolina in the palmy days of her histo-i
~. In speaking Of one of his opinions,
an annotator to one OF the late editions
OF Chancellor Kent uses these words:
The opinion of Justice Wardlaw is sin-
guiarly learned and interesting; it is O
remarkable example OF historical and
legal orudition.' He; was. in al the
relations OF life, isj man Of unswery-
ing integrity a14 elevated sentiment, and
by his death has, been removed another
one OF those land marks which bind US to
oil that is good ;aad glorious in the past
history of our State.'i

BRITISH ANTICIPATION OF WAR-TRoU.
BILE AT THE ANTIPoDEs. -Despatches
from Melbourne report that panic pre-
walls in New Zealand over the frequent
and terrible assassinations by the noun
taineors. The settlers are organizing for
defence, and another Maori war is probu-
BILE.
An English writer, dating at Yelling
ton, New Zealand, in the early days of
tue present year, referred to the proba-
bility of renewal Of the Maor; war, and
to the then existing position of the
white settlers in the colony, in the fol.
lowing words:
"Ihere are unquestionably the germs
OF fifty Abyesinian wars in tho various
parts of the British Empire. All about
the Eastern and Southern Seas, small
bodies Of Englishmen are in contact
with barbarism or perverted civilization,
and no human being can say what
strange difficulty or danger may not arise
at any given moment from the conflict of
interests or Of passions. These coun-
trymen of ours have al acknowledged
right to claim our aid and protection in
their troubles; bnt are we to be perpetn-
ally adding to their number? The power
whose responsibilities begin with India
and Canada, and then continue in a
nearly intcrminable series, may we'll hcsi-
tate before it attempts q war conquest Of
the Maoris or the absolute annexation OF
the territory of the Fijs."

CRUELT1Es OF TIE CAnL1srs Tue
cruelty shown i'll the execution of stu
dents by Tie Cubau loyalists upon false
charge of deseorating the graves OF loyal
people has been surpassed lately in
Spain by the Carlist leader, Mret, WHO
has executed two children at Calof.
These young victims Of the old malady
OF Spanish society were accused of hay.
ing carried dispatches containing orders
against the Carlists. The charge may
be true or false, but the tender years Of
children have usually, in civilized war
fare, exempted them from punishment,
even in cases in which on adult might
be severely dealt with. The Carlist
leader has no excuse for sudden anger at
the discovery of the correspondence; the
children were shot in cold blood, with
placnrds on their breasts, stating the
reason Of their murder.
