Kansas republicans are setting some willy
and wicked little traps for the long-hsired
and unsophistlcated Senator Pfeffer. But
it is better that they should practice their
sly little schemes upon him before he be-
comes a voting factor in the United States
Senate. By that time he may learn enough
Of their tricky ways to avoid them and vote

At the last public reception Of the Queen
of England it is said that diamonds to the
value of something over $6,OOO,00O were
exhibited on the persons of few very rich
women present They must have come

The South Bound Road.

The people of Savannah will soon have an
this city from business point of view of
the South Bound railroad. Within very
few weeks it will be ready to be operated
and there is no doubt that it will be the
means Of bringing large amount of bust
ness to Savannah merchants. The greater
part Of the country tributary to the road is
very fine, and that which is not under
cultivation will soon be, in all probability.
When it becomes accessible TO the best
markets immigrants will seek it, and its de-
velopment will be rapid.
The local business of the road will be
good from the start, and that it will steadily
increase is absolutely certain. Those who
are familiar with the country through
which the road runs predict that within
very few years it will contribute a larger
volume of business to Savannah than the
most enthusiastic projectors of the road ex-
pect.
And there is one thing about the South
| Bound that is well worth noticing. It is
that those who are building it have not
done great deal of talking about it. They
have regarded it as purely business enter
prise. They have put their money into 1t,
| thereby showing their confidence in it. No
frantic appeals to the public for assistance
In its behalf has been made All the prom
Uses with regard TO it are being kept, and
almost before Savannah is aware of it she
will have a new and important commercial
artery.
And the road is being well built. The
best of materials are being used and the
roadbed is solid and substantial. And the
equipment will be first-class. The road is
not being built as a speculation. 1t is a
business undertaking by Savannah men.
And a very large part of the capital in it is
furnished by them. When it is completed
it will be Savannah institution and will
be a very important factor in Savannah's
prosperity.
A Berlin cable to the Philadelphia IN

states the vatican expects to elect as q sue

not an Italian, for the reason that there is
no other way in which 4iissensions among
the cardinals can be quelled. The diplomat
further stated that Cardinal Gibbons has by
far the best chance of being elected. His fit
ness for the place is universally admitted
and the attention of the vatican is strongly
drawn toward him.

When theological students desert theology
and take TO burglary as an occupation it
does look as if the world was retrograding.
But we must try to think that these were
only sporadic pair. What is still more
depressing Is the reflection that burglars
never repent and turn to preaching. So 1t
must be q question of profits.

The discussion Of the question, whether
the alliance of South Carolina can afford to
indorse the sub-treasury scheme or not,
which is to take place at Spartanburg July
%, between Gov. Tillman and National
Farmers Alliance Lecturer Terrell, is ex-
citing great deal of interest both inside
and outside of alliance circles. The state
alliance of South Carolina meets at Spar
tanhurg July 81, and after the discussion a
vote as to whether the sub-treasury scheme
shall be approved or not will be taken in
secret. Gov. Tillman is by no means hope
full that he will succeed in convincing the
alliance that his view Of the sub-treasury
scheme is the right one.
There is q pretty strong feeling against
the sub-treasury sche among South Caro-
lima alliancemen. II is probable, however q,
that a majority of them favor it. But those
who favor it have not given it as much
careful thought, from all accounts, as
those who do not. The idea of those who
favor it is that it will make currency more
plentiful. They do not permit themselves
to consider the dangers to which the
scheme exposes them.
Gov. Tillman wants the democrats to
hold together solidly, and he knows very
we'll that the Democratic party will never
| indorss the sub-treasury scheme. If that
| scheme should be Endorsed there would be
| danger Of the Peoples party getting a
pretty strong foothold in South Carolina.

Although the claim is made that the past

BIo TOBACCO FRAUDS.
II Looks as Though 1t win Cost some

NEW YORK, Dec. 19,-Develouments
bf startling nature are to be made pub
lie soon which are likely to connect a
number of large tobacco importers with
attempting to defraud the government
out of many thousands Of dollars. I'm
der orders from the treasury department
at Washington the special agents of that
department are now examining all of
the tobacco now in the bonded ware
house in this city.
OF this there are now $4,000 bales in
storage, and each bale averages about
1870 pounds Most Of this tobacco has
been imported as being cheap filing ma
terial, on which duty of only thirty
five cents pound must be paid, but the
investigation thus far made show that
at least two-thirds Of the tobacco is Of
the finest Havana, to be used for wrap
pers. On this duty of s. "A pound is
collected.
Those who are in the scheme to de-
fraud the government went to work
shrewdly. The cheap quality Of tobac-
co is found on the outside Of the bales,
but below the outer covering is the leaf
tobacco. The agents now are examining
the bales which have been withdrawn
from the bonded warehouse for use by
the manufacturers. Charles S. Wilbur,
the special agent, refused to give the
names of any of the importers who had
been found to be part of the scheme

tensive affair."" he said, "but it is impos-
