A German view of Samoan Affairs

A German view OF samoan EHalrs'
BERLIN, Jan. 7.-Several of the
evening papers in commenting on
affairs in Samoa emphasize the fact
Of the preponderance of German
commercial interests over those OF
America, and express the hope that
the American Government will re-
cognize this and stop the intrigues
of Americans and facilitate an agree
ment between the contending parties
which are within the scope of the in
fuence of the United States.

threatened to kill Smith, and Smith hid
himself in barber shop the greater part
of the day. He came out in the after
noon and was met on the street by Ham
mond who demanded his coat, upon it
being refused general quarrel ensued
in which Hammond drew pistol and
fired twice, the last shot striking Smith
and causing almost instant death.
The defense set up insanity as their
plea. Two years ago Hammond's skull
was fractured, and Dr. Caldwell of the
South Florida Railroad Hospital testi-
fed that the prisoner was apt to suffer
from epileptic attacks from the effects
of the wound This was all the testi-
mony offered. The prisoner was put on
the stand and his plea was self defense.
John 4. Bradley, ESQ. appeared for the
defense and Alex ST. Clair Abrams Esq,
for the State. The jury was good one
composed of some of the best citizens of
the county, as follows:
O.J. Hill, Lance Adams. M. N. Voor-
his, G.. s. Meade, H. F. Scalan, E. B.
Meade, w. L. Connie, VIM. Stone, Sam
Purden, I. M. Wright, w. S. Hart and
III. S. Baker.
The jury deliberated only twenty-six
minutes and returned verdict of guilty
of murder in the first degree" And in
twenty nine days from the time the mur-
der was committed, the murderer was
condemned to death.

Carthage Record.

Carthage Record.
The following is a composition
written by a school girl in this place
a few years ago. 1t is full of truth,
and would be good to remember:
at is said that it is better to be
born lucky than rich. 1t might have
been better said-that it is better to
be born plucky than lucky. Luck
is changing. Pluck is always the
same.
The books of nature tell us that a
cat always falls on its feet, no matter
how you throw them. Now, this
may be nature with a cat but it is
pluck in a man or woman whenever
circumstances in life throw them into
the air but never knock their feet
from under them.
Now, what is Pluck? Well, it is
made up of a great many things.
Cheek, resolution, energy, and "nev-
er give up" of which at the pres
ent day cheek is most important.
Pluck makes the world go. 1t lies
at the bottom of everything that is
great and noble in life. 1t is better
than money, for it can make it, and
whoeveri is born with it is sure Of
success" r-H

About Old People.

Independent.
At many flreside, too, of earnest
Christian people an old father or
mother sits, waiting the call to go
hence. 1t is the warmest corner of
the fireside, perhaps; they have
clothes and food and shelter. Their
busy middIe-aged children love them
tenderly, it may be; but they are
usually too busy to put their love in
to words. They are grateful, when
they think of the long sacrifice OF
life which the old man or woman
who sits there, helpless now, made
for them. But how often do they
put this gratitude into burning words
which would warm and cheer the
tired soul cropping its way down into
the chill valley of death? They pay
back the food and protection given to
them in their childhood; but do they
remember the boundless love, the in
cessant care and the pride in them?
Words of praise followed their every
action, DO they pay these debts in
kindo

The Southern Question.

The Independent recently published
symposium on the Southern ques-
ton, from which we take the follow
ing written by Mississippi gentle
man. 1t is the most candid, con-
sentative, fairminded review of the
case we have ever seen.
If there were seven millions of
Chinese in New England as unquali-
fed for citizenship as are the MAORI
ty of the negroes in the South if by
Southern legislation they were made
citizens and voters, and by their
votes should place corrupt men in
power, squandel the states revenues,
levy oppressive taxation on lands
owned entirely by the native whites;
if the good people of New England
should overturn this tyranny; then
if we of the South cried out fraud,
intimidation, and increasingly de-
nounced them for not being thus
governed ; if we ever told the Chinese
that they should arm themselves and
resist to death any attempt to keep
them from ruling, for they had a
right to rule, because, forsooth, there
were more almond eyes in New
England than any other kind of
eyes; if we demanded that these Chi
nese should be received into hotels
and churches and schools, and told
the New England people that they
were horribly wicked not so to re-
ceive them, would not such a mess
age as this be sent to us? Southern
brethren, we need your help; send
men, send money, to elevate these
degraded Chinese f.; but let US manage
the political and social relations, that
is domestic and home-rule ques-
ton"
The negro problem is not, "How to
secure the negro his vote at the next
election ?" nor GLOW shall caste be
instantaneously destroyed ?" but
GLOW can we fit the negro for
citizenship" How can we elevate
him in intelligence and virtue?"
This is so pressing that we invoke
aid from every quarter. When the
negro has been qualified by educa-
ton and character he will secure his
rights as naturally as the heir enters
into his property on reaching his
majority. Social relations will adjust
themselves to the satisfaction of all
concerned.

The Democratic Outlook.

n. Y. World.
The word of courage and of hope
which The World spoke to the Dem
ocratic party after the loss of the cleo
ton in November can be repeated
with even more reason now.
The Republican policy, as outlined
by President Harrison, will make for
Democratic success in the future.
The Democratic party is right in
asserting that unnecessary taxation is
unjust taxation. 1t is right in de-
handing that the surplus revenue be
stopped,not spent. 1t Is right in hold
ing that the taxes to be first reduced
are those which bear hardest upon the
greater number of people-namely,
the war taxes upon the necessaries of
life, Every word Of the Republican
President and every act of a Repub.
lican Congress which antagonizes
these everlastingly right and truly
democratic principles will hasten the
day Of the second overthrow of their
party. tF.Es
The plutocratic tendencies and
monopolistic affiliations of the Re-
publican party will inevitably weak
en- it with the people. The Demo-
Gratis have only to be true to their
principles, united in action and wise
in the selection of leaders to pluck a
final victory out of the present re-
verse. = r. rs, 2

doctors had no name. The nails came

off his hands up to the middle joint.

fully, and has taken quantities of

This question has recently been an
swered in an interesting article pub
lished in a German journal, the Mu-
Mich Neuste Nachrichten, with the
surprising result that not a milliard
minutes have passed. The calcula-
ton is as follows: 1888 multiplied by
800 days equals 9S9,l2O days,to which
must be added 400 leap days, making
a total of $50, $50 days, which con-
tain l6, 549,S2O hours, or 800, 1895, POO
minutes, that is 9,OO4,SOO minutes
less than milliard.
The milfiard minutes will be reach
ed in the year 1902, on the 18th OF
April, at 10:40 A. M.
Taking in consideration that the
idemnity paid by France to Germa.
ny after the war of 1901 amounted
to s milliard francs, it follows that il
this sum were to be paid at the rate
of ) francs (about S1.00) for every
