SAND RIVER.

a Genuine River Which Contains no
Watcr-A Suggestion to Statesmen.
SpeciaI Correspondence Of he he!iig:n:cr.
AIKEN, S. c., March l2.-Among tho
many freaks OF nature, l am inclined to
think that Sand river, in Aiken, S. c.,
is entitled, ii no. to n prominent place,
at least TO honorable mention"
Taking its risc in tho SChcutzen park
in that village. it flows onward in q
southeastorly direction, and loses itself
in the !impid waters oil Barton's pond.
The old missionary hymn that speaks
OF the Sunny fountains" that roll
down their golden sand" must have re-
icrrGd 10 some such stream. 1t literally
rolls down golden sand, and that is all
it does roll down.
To be sure, alter two days hard rain,
there is n suspicion OF water in Sand
river, but that is like those light aflic.
tions which last but Tor 4 moment"
The principal, nay, | might almost say
tho only, product Of Sand river is sand.
The typographical features havo all
the attributes of 4 river: The banks ace
well ~dotined-the bed IS jim de Siec.e, bu
the water non est mrcaius.
The light soil OF this section OF the
late Conlederacy. and now, thank God,
once more OF Uncle Sans domain,
washes down with every rain. The
water disappears as rapidly rs q ground
hog on the ID OF February. but the
sand, like the poor, you have always
with "nu.
The wonder is that some enterprising
congressman does not offer i bill to
make Sand river %naviSable. All tina:
would be needed would be an appropri-
alton large enough to CXcavate about
three or four feet; then rip rap the
bank for 4 height oil %thirty-six inches;
then grOut with broken stone and Port
land cement, aud the work would bo
done.
The stream would then be navigable
for flat boats and dug outs; and ii, ut
times, during 4 voyage from Scheutzeu
park to Barton's pond, it might be neces-
sary to "hcave the lead" the same
thing could be accomplished by sending
Il man ahead, with his trousers rolled
up, who could report the depth as they
do on the Illinois rivcr-that is, by sing
ing out: Knee deep" half shin"
quarter less calf" DC.
commend the idea TO some budding
statesman who wants TO make himself
solid with his district. Even il the
work should ultimately be n failure, the
appropriation, at least, would DO howl
ing success. G. A.

It would have eemod absurd in the
last degree to predict that a legislative
body which repealed the provision OF
law requiring tho purchase Of silver
would, in so short a time aud with no
radical change in the membership,
adopt such n measure as the Bland sill
yer seignioraee bill.
The Bland measure is infinitely worse
than the repealed silver provision. 1t
provides for the coinage OF silver which
the treasury holds in trust for holders
OF notes issued against that silver. The
government cannot honestly make this
use OF u commodity which it holds rs
trustee.
The silver authorized tobe coined into
S55, 000,0 C0 is Il profit supposed to have
accrued to the treasury on accounted the
coinage OF silver. The fact is that the
silver bought under tho act which this
Bland bill deals with stands the treas
ury aloss OF SIS, OOO,O coo.
Moreover, after all the talk about
coinage, there is to be no coinage.
Notes are to be issued against the profit
that is expected to coine out OF the sill
yer when it shall be coined. Since
there is to be no profit, no seignioraSe,
the notes will be strictly fiat money.
How such i measure can command
the support OF silver men is inconceiv-
able. The issue Of paper dollars not
based on silver could 90 on indefinitely
without stimulating the production OF
an ounce OF silver. without adding Accent
to the price; but it might in time put
up the price OF paper.
The paper issue under this bill is put
at S55, l56, GSl, representing exactly the
amount OF the alleged seignioraSp; but
it is a reasonable Interpretation that it
authorizes twice this amount. Here is
the language OIL which this interpreta-
ton is based: "And the secretary OF
the treasury may in his discretion, if
tine needs OF the treasury demand it, is.
sue silver certificates in excess OF such
coinage: Provided, that said excess
shall not exceed the amount OF the seig-
niorage as herein authorized 10 be
coined" Mr.. Bland and his b~uccaneer

%llo%oLuLU, March S.-A was
atloat Sunday night TO the effect that
martial law was to be declared on Mon
day, but rs yet nothing has como OF 1t.
Tho marshal was seon and denied tho
rumor, but nevertheless it is believed
that there was some truth in 1t, and
that the government had such M ill.,
teution. 1t is known that some iears
were felt by the government that II
news unfavorable to the ex-Queen's
case should arrive the Royalists would
make a last desperate attempt TO re-
store the queen. For this reason the
plan OF declaring martial law was pro-
posed, and the government was rendy
TO take steps to prevent tronb!e.
y prominent government official said
ms much to the Associated Press Corros-
pondent to-day, and also that 1t wRs
only in tho last moment that tho idea
was abandoned. News OF the report OF

tons OF joy by the annexation party.

pected, and tho report was 4 great dis

At n meeting OF councils held this af-

An analysis OF tho silver seisuiorace
bill is OF special interest. Oh the forty
four votes r'tho bill the Democrats
gave thirty, the Republicans eleven and
the Populists three. OF the thirty-onc
votes against the bill the Republicans
gave twenty-five and the Democrats
nine.
Oh the eleven Republicans voting for
the bill ten wcro from the Pacific
slope. Senator Quay, o! Pennsylvania
has the distinction OF being the only
eastern Republican to vote ior the bill.
although his colleague, Senator Cam
eron, is in favor OF it. With the pecu-
liar exception oi Pennsylvania, the
eastern states north OF the Potomac
voted against the measure. Senator
Hill, OF New York, was for it but was
paired and did not vote.
Maryland and Delaware we:o solid
against the bill. Virginia and West Viz
Ginia were solid in favor OF it, although
Senator Camden did not vote, being
paired. Oregon and Wyomlng gave a
Republican vote each in the negative.
The Gulf states cast a single vote agains,
the bill, and that cane from Louisiana.
The disease is Democratic and Populist,
southern and western.

The great Exposition to be held i'll Balti-
more in 1897 bids fair to be brilliant and glor-
ious success.
From all sections of the country have come
words of encouragement for the Exposition.
The Virginia Senators and Representatives in
Congress have signed letter warmly approx
ing it, and plelging the support of the old
Dominion Governor McCorkle, of West
Va has written a letter enthusiastically en-
dorsing it. At the recent Southern Industrial
Congress at Augusta, resolution was unani'
mously adopted promising the participation
support and patronage of the Southern States
generally. Southern members of Congress
and the Governors of several states, as wei
as the entire press of the South have evincet
a spirit of hearty co operation.
To both Baltimore and Maryland the Exposi
tion will present an opportunity that Meth
er can afford to neglect. As an advertisement
calculated to stimulate immigration to on
counties and the investment of capital the OPP
portunity is indeed a rare one.
