THE PALMETTO FIBRE.

A Possibly New Industry for the Palmetto
Stato-What the Government Doing to
Encourage New Inventions.
Some days ago an interview was
published in the News and Courier
with Mr.. Charles Richards Dodge,
special agent OF the Government IN
the Agricultural Department. Mr.:
Dodge has been making study OF
fibre, ramie, jute, palmetto, etc.
While here he called on DR.. Panknin,
who, as is wel-known, is the inventor
of the only perfect decorticating
method known.
"Some questions have been asked
as to what is the use OF palmetto fibre.
This fibre is about to be manufac-
tured in Florida in numerous places.
Two uses are made of the fbres.
From the treeis madea long Ggheous
producSghich is used instead Of halr
in compounding the ordinary plaster
ing for walls. It is said to have the
special advantage over hair that it
can be cut easily while being used on
the wall and it will not stick to the
trowel and fall out in whole sections
of plaster. The other fibre is made
from the boots OF the tree, the
stumps Of the old leaves. This fibre
is short and is made into door mats,
ETC., etc. There is plenty of palmetto
in South Carolina if one wants to
make q trial.
There are q great many other
things which have been suggested IN
the News and Courier for the manu-
facture of bagging, okra stalks, etc.
DR.. PanLnin said yesterday that he
understood that bill would be
passed by Congress III aid OF dlscov-
erers and inventors Of valuable add-
tions to the commercial fbres. It is
not unlikely that the ramie cultiva-
tors and inventors will get, and will
deserve, the consideration and assis-
tance of the Government. Every
body in South Carolina who discoy-
| ers something in this line will doubt
less receive encouragement from Con
gress.
Mr.. Dodge said when he was here
that the United States paid out at
| les.st S25,000,0OO annually fer things
| that could be produced in the United
T! States, and that it was within the
scope Of his work to see how best
that S25,0O0,OOO could be saved to
/ the consu1aers.-News and Courier.

A Move Against Chairman Brice.

New YORK, June 25.-There are
hints that some influential persons
think that Senator Calvin S. Bl1ce
would do well to resign his office OF
Chairman Of the Democratic National
Committee, and that such g move
would be of considerable advantage
to the party at large. His railroad
and other financial connections and
his lukewarm tariff sentiments are
given as the reason for making o
change desirable. The position OF
head of the committee is no sinecure,
and it may be rather difficult to get
any ohe to fill Mr.. Brice's place.
While nominally favorable to Mr..
Cleveland's denomination and re-elec-
ton, he has been accused OF really
favoring the nomination of ex-Secre-
tary William G. Whitney, although
that gentleman has over and over
again stated his refusal to be a can
didate. Taken with other early indi-
cations of the campaign, such a con-
troversy would seemripe to addanew
complication themany now surround
ing the Democratic situation here.

s"DEAR OLD our-UP PAPA"
BY LILLIAN RozEuI MESSENGER.


We know not if he evil was, or good
His truth, or faith and creed;
We know that poor, lone, desolate, he stood,
In cold darkest need.
For native land he fought full long and well.
An bore his hundred scars
OF war, gained where its iron thunder's fell,
Oft meath quiet stars.
Long years he fought, as men hurrah' d and cried,
See the God in man
In peace, when poor, he fell; they only sighed,
'Tis thus since time began,
Twas not enough he bore the scars of strife,
OF loss for duty done;
And loss of homes sweet hope, children and wife,
The while his country won;
But ingratitude, forgetfuness, ay, worse
Than want, or VICE. or shame,
Or that dark circumstance that wrote its curse
Ger his fair name.
To give ones life for love, and find shell.
OF hollow, empty sound
brothers give ye nothing where he fell
Save low grassy mound?
Was he so weary pacing the old road
He could no longer wait
For child's love, grown, to lift the dreary load
At Hopes glad morning gate?
Take then his child, who twelve years loved
him so,
Whose sunny heart-caress
Would take the stings and barbs of bitter woe
With pure loves faithfulness.
o brothers save his child he could OF save
In his despair and shame;
Knowing his country gave him but grave,
And Death to blot his name.
*[Col. Duke Battle, a veteran of the late war,
who was terribly disfgured by wounds received
in battle, committed suicide at Chicago on the
night of September is. He received small PEN
sion, which he eked out by doing literary work
Four years ago his wife died, leaving him with
boy of eight to look after. This boy was pas
sionately fond of his father, and it is told he
would throw his arms about the veterans neck
and kiss the distigured face, crying, Dear old
cut-up papa."l
