The way that Springer-Carlisle

There Is some disposition at Aus

The Houston Post Is counting
Immortality at the expense OF
Brann'S vocabulary. The expert

OF that paper should successfully
warn it against, but 1t Is reckless.
The country will look In vain for
any relief from the present body In

service that they could render the
Nation would be to resign as a
body.
The Business Mems association
ought to be able to do no end Of good
for San Antonio. The membership
is sufficiently numerous and there
are open doors in every direction
for their efforts.

There is no necessity whatever
for the Republicans in Congress to
attack the President and his poll
cy when the members Of his own
party can rub it in on him as eff
fectually as Sibley did In the cur
rency debate. That arraignment
OF the president aud his utter dis
regard OF all the party pledges and
the party advice was one of the
most scientific cussings that the
House has lately heard.

1t is only question OF how soon
this country will be left with the
bag to hold unless she forecasts
that time and provides for herself
independently Of all foreign COM
bines. She Is the only one OF the
great powers with a sufficient di-
versity OF soil, climate and pro-
duction to live easily within her
self, and it is the part OF manifest
wisdom for her to get ready to do
this.

LABOR NEEDS WISDOM

| Inc T6uuCllOu vi wages Will dl'
ways come unwelcomely to those
who earn them, but this fact
should not stand in the way OF a
fair adjustment Of the relations OF
wage earnings to the profits OF the
concern that employs labor. There
are certain fixed charges that are
always tax upon employed capt.
tai and these must be considered
in rating the wages that the bust.
Fness is able to pay. There is no
question of the truth of the general
depression of business, the de.
creased prices that goods bring in
the market and the reduced profits
that accrue from their manufac-
ture. This being so it is only wise
for labor to carefully consider the
changed circumstances of produc-
ton and determine dispassioi a5ely
whether the demand for the old
wages is not In effect a demand for
the cessation of production. 1t
would be far wiser and better for
labor to accept reduced wages than
to discontinue labor, II such re-
duction is necessity, and such in
many instances 1t no doubt Is at
present. The remedy will lie In
such restrictions of immigration
and such protection against the
low priced labor of foreign fac
tories as will restore the profits
of labor and thus increase the
legitimate price Of that labor.
Once the overplus Of that labor
Is cut off by judiciaus restriction
there will be no difficulty in labor
securing at the hands Of its
employers just and liberal
recompense. Until the change
for the better comes it would be
we'll to take under consideration
the circumstances and not demand
impracticable returns for labor.
To do so Is in effect to kill the
goose that lays the eggs OF daily
sustenance, even If they are not al
together golden. Wisdom In de-
termining such matters Is not to
be looked for in the heads OF the
organized labor hosts, as these off,
GERS are salaried and expect to earn
their salaries in maintaining the
war for high wages, regardless OF
the conditions that environ the
labor Of the country. The man
with his family to support has his
first duty to them and himself,
after that to the guild Of which he
Is member. Certain it Is that the |
general resistance to decreased |
wages at present requires wiser
consideration than 1t Is receiving.
In some instances the reduction
has been accepted in very unex-
pected quarters, thus showing a
more conservative mind on the
part OF labor than has been usual
with it. 1t would be wise not to
hastily dismiss or decide matters
OF this kind without such investi-
cation as will determine whether
the reduction is justified by neces-
sity or is merely an arbitrary act.
Labor must expect to share with
employers the great depressions OF
this present, looking to improved
conditions in the labor world and
not to increased agitation and hos
tility for the remedy.

blockade into the port of Galveston,
after discharging his cargo, ne b loaded
up with return cargo OF cotton,
which was the last cargo of cotton
carried out of the port Of Galveston
during the war. he returned to Ha-
vana and laid there some time, and
was ordered to take the ship to Liver
pool, England, which he did, and his
vessel soon went to the boneyard.
These blockade runners were useless
as merchantmen, because they were
too light-that is, their capacity was
too small and they consumed too
much coal. They were speedy, and
were soon out of the reach of any war
vessel.
"In May, 1864, I was in command
of the blockade runner, Annie, gov

lead, iron and valuable stores. In
1868 when the Confederates were hard
up for salt Capt. Mcmillan, Of Char
lesion, S. c., ran blockade to the
port Of Nassau, where he purchased a
large fore-and-aft centerboard schooner
and loaded her with salt, clearing her
from the port of Nassau to the port Of
Baltimore, his purpose being, Of
course, to run a blockade in Charles
ton. Capt. Mcmillan kept two logs
a false log and true log; his false
log showed that he was between Hat
teras and Cape Henry when he was
really off Charleston. He dropped
both his anchors overheard, damaged
his sails and appeared very much sur.
prised when he sighted the Federal
feet off Charleston. He appealed to
the Federal admiral for assistance:
He being a kind hearted man, supplied
him with new anchors and sent sail
maker and his crew aboard and re-
paired his sails. Capt. Mcmillan
spent two days with the Federal fleet.
When he went aboard the flagship he
bade the admiral goodby and thanked
him for his kindness. The admiral
offered him towboat to tow him to
the windward. This was what the
captain didn't want, but he couldn't t
refuse it, 80 he was towed a short
distance, when he got rid Of the tug,
hoisted his centerboard, and com
menced drifting back into the fleet.
AS soon as he drifted as far as he
thought safe, he dropped his center
board and ran the blockade. After
loading up with cottod, he attempted
to run the blockade out, but was cap
tured. The admiral said: 81 have
got you now, my boy. You played
me a sharp trick but I will treat you
we'll. I will send you to New York. ;"
And he did; he treated him well. =

GA Pint of Coln."

A very amusing incident occurred
in place on Gervais street q few nights
ago, Constable Beach and Davis fgur-
ing therein. There was Q crowd IN
the place at the time. One OF the
constables stepped up to the ex-liquor
man, and, slaping him on the back,
this conversation took place:

yet?' 80. ),
"Well, I'm terribly dry, can t you
get me a pint of corn?"
ooh! certainly"
Chow much?"
"Fifty cents.
"Well, all right. Go get it..
Bill left and soon afterward return
ed with pint flask neatly wrapped up,
handing it to the constable. :,
The constable took it, paid the half
dollar, and proceeded to arrest in the
name Of the State Of South Carolina.
Bill submitted to arrest and sug-
gested that they take drink before
they started for the jail.
The constable pulled the neck OF
the bottle and turned it up. Then ne
spit out mouthful Of corn, and when
everybody laughed, he exclaimed !:
"I'll arrest you for obtaining money
under false pretenses.
Bill chuckled, and said: "Well, l
guess you won't. You told me to get
Y YOU pint of corn. I've fulfilled my
contract to the letter, and what's more
I gave you full measure, for it's IN a

HILL ON THE MONROE DOCTRINE.
Cannot Be Formulated in n Treaty,
but It's Moral Force is Great.

but It's Moral Force is Great.
An interview with Senator Hill on the
Venezuelan question was given out at AL
bany last night. Senator Hill was asked
whether experts in public law think the
Monroe doctrine has given to the United
States a special right not given by the
general law to intervene between Great
Britain and Venezuela in the pending
boundary dispute, or assume a protectorate
over Spanish-America?
He answered that he had never thought
so.
But does not the Monroe doctrine de-
clare that the United States cannot permit
any Spanish-American republic on this con-
tinent to be oppressed or its destiny con-
trolled by a European state:"
THAT would not have referred" the Sen
ator said, ito a legitimate dispute, such as
we or any other government might have
tomorrow with a Spanish-American state.
1t protested against using such a contro-
versy with an intention to increase Europe
an political dominion on this hemisphere
or control the destiny of an American state
or transfer colony, like Cuba. to new
European owner, but did not change what
was then the law of nations"
Was not the Monroe declaration to Con-
gress national pledge, guarantee of our
intervention-forcible, if need be-in behalf
of each SpanSh-American republic when
ever, in our opinion, oppressed by a Europe
an State?"
Il think not. Not otherwise, certainly,
than if Chile shall oppress Peru.or Mexico
shall be unreasonable in dealing with
Guatemala. Congress has never affirmed
the Monroe doctrine. In 1868 President
johnson projected treaty with Colombia,
which was signed, embodying the Monroe
doctrine, but neither the Colombian senate
nor our own Senate ratified it.
You remember that when, two years
after President Monroe made his declara
tion, congress was convened by Bolivia
cusSion of an American alliance to enforce
the declaration, there was a substantial
concurrence of opinion between President
John Quincy Adams, who had formulated
the Monroe doctrine, and the members of
the Senate and House, especially the demo-
crats including Senator Van Buren, of New
York, participating in a long debate that
the declaration did not pledge the United
States to forever thereafter prevent a
independence or form of government of a
Central American state"
so you think that President Monroe has
the reputation of having given his name
to a rule of conduct by the United States
for which neither he nor Mr.. Adams con-
tended?"
Precisely that" the Senator answered.
''The doctrine cannot be formulated in a
treaty or a statute, but its moral influence
Discrimination should. however. be made
between legitimate disputes and illegiti-
mate purposes behind the disputes, such as
imposing by force European political con-
troll over the destiny of a reluctant in
dependent Spanish-American state.''
