The United States Senate has at last
passed bill appropriating s25. 900 for
the erection OF monument on the bat
tleAeld OF Guiltord Court House, North
Carolina, to General Nathaniel Greene.
This recognition of the valor and SER
vices of this noble revolutionary patriot
will be received with qualification by
the whole country. General Greene WAS
q native Of New England; but the most
brilliant part Of his record in the war for
independence was his campaign in the
Southern States, and so great was his
affection for the people OF this section
and their regard for him that coon after

WILLIAM P. ST. JOHN, the president
Of the Mercantile National Bank OF New
York, is one Of the very few metropoli-
tan bankers who is an American first
and banker last. In the hotbed Of gold
monometalism and the centralized
money power he boldly advocates the
free and unlimited coinage of silver, and
denounces the decentralization of that
metal as the greatest crime against the
human family Of the present century.
Mr.. st. John is one of the wealthiest
men and one Of the most successful
bankers OF New York city, but unlike
most of his kind his heart ia still with
and for the American people. He
makes the bold; statement that "it the
Democratic platform demands the re-
opening of the minis to silver, all the
powers OF the Democratic sdministra-
tion will be used to compass the defeat
OF the Dem ocratic candidate"

COUNTING OHIoKENs.

The friends of Mckinley are not only
sure Of his nomination for President by
the national Republican convention at
ST. Louis, but are 80 certain Of his elec-
tion In November that they have al
ready selected Cabinet for him. While
there 10 many slip 'twixt the cup
and the lip" and while the election OF
the "Ohio Napoleon" to the Presidency
Is by no means assured, there seems to
be not shadow of doubt ss to his
nomination by the Republicans for that
exalted position.
Recent events have shown beyond all
contradiction that Governor Mckinley
is the most popular man in the Repub-
licAn party, and that the rank and file
are determined to have him as the can
didate for Presidents; still, 1t 10 rather
premature to name cabinet before all
the people OF the United States have had
their say in the matter.
However, as an Indication of what
may be in store for some of the promi-
nent leaders OF the Republican party in
case of it's success at the November
cleo ton IL may not be amiss to give the
names of the Mckinley Cabinet, ss it
is reported to have been announced by
the Ohio statesman's most intimate
friend and political adviser, Hon. Mark
Hanna, as follows:
Secretary OF State, John Sherman, of
Ohio; Secretary of War. II. Clay Evans,
OF Tennessee; Secretary Of Agriculture.
John w. Gowdy, Of Indiana; Secretary
OF the Interior, Ex-Governor Merriam.
OF Minnesota; Attorney General. Hor-
ace Porter, of New York; Secretary of
the Treasurer, M. A. Hanna, of Ohio;
Secretary of the Navy. M. h, De Young.
OF California; Postmaster General, Gill
bert II. Hobart, Of New Jersey.
1t will be noted from the above that
not q single one of the recent Presi-
Dental sspirAnts OF the Republican
party Is included in the list, but why
they should be so sedulously ignored
has not yet been explained, except in
the case Of Speaker Reed, who. it is
said, ia booked by the Mckinley people
for the second place on the ticket.
Whether he will accept this position or
not remains to be seen.
Governor Bradley, of kentucky, would
probably have had place in the ''cab-
met" speculatively speaking, if he had
not joined the combination of "favorite
sons" to defeat Mckinley. and Senator
Quay might also have had seat among
the Mckinley elect had he not been led
astray by Boss Plat, whose ambition to
be Secretary Of the Treasury has proven
not only blight to his own aspirations,
but the rock on which were wrecked the
hopes Of many OF his friends.
Altogether. 1t is quite natural that
the friends and supporters of Mckinley
should feel iubilant, but the chances
are that they are counting chickens"
too early. The silver move-
ment is gaining in strength and mo-
mentum constantly. Strsddles OF no
kind will suit the people in the next
election. They want square fight for
the free coinage OF silver at the ratio of
16 to /, and with only one candidate in
the feld representing this issue they
are sure to win.

SENSATION IN HALEY.
County Treasurer Clay and Deputy
Parsons Arrested.

Difficulty over the county funds
resulted last Saturday in the arrest
of County Treasurer H. H. Clay
and his deputy Frank II. Parsons,
who is cashier of the First National
Bank of Haley. The officials were
arrested under complaint sworn
out by Dis riot Attorney Rogers
charging item with embezzlement.
The county funds are said to be
short to the amount of $4,000.
1t seems the county funds were
deposited by Treasurer Clay in the
First National bank Of HALEY. 1t
is now charged that the bank has
been using the funds. If it can be
shown that the funds had been used
for that purpose the bank officials
also will be prosecuted.
Attorney General Parsons says
no bank receiving county money
on deposit has any right to use i,
even temporarily, and if it did the
severest punishment was provided
by law, such act constituting a
felony.

Filled Cheese.

During the past winter and spring
the Congress of the United States
has spent no small part of its time
in discussing the filled cheese bill"
but still there are many good citi-
zens who pay their taxes, read the
newspapers and believe all that
they read in their columns who do
not know what a filled cheese is.
They might suspect it as a cheese
SO filled with a certain form of life
that it can walk across the table, but
though that may be a filled cheese
il is not the kind contemplated by
the bill. Senator Knute Nelson of
the great dairying State, Minnesota,
gave an explanation in a recent
speech, and we cannot do better
than follow his guidance. Accord
ing to Senator Nelson, the manu-
facture of filled cheese, an industry
which has obtained large proper
lions, is fraud upon the COW,
which, like the making of olemar-
garine as a substitute for butter,
has been made possible only by the
progress of science. 1t seems the
process was discovered in Denmark
which has lately become the dairy
meadow of Europe, and it consists
in skimming the milk of its cream
to make butter and still using what
remains to manufacture cheese. A
few years ago this could not have
been done, but by the aid of mod
ern discoveries, wonders can be &C.
complished. After the cream has
been separated by mechanical pro-
cess, the milk is heated and then oil
made from the leaf lard of the hog
is forced into it by a jet of steam.
In other words, hog fat takes the
place of the cream which was ex-
traoted to make the butter. Three
or four pounds of lard oil to 100
pounds Of skinned milk are suffi-
cient, and then the two can be boiled
and mixed, and the result is filled
cheese"
The product is not unwholesome
it may even be a good food but it
is not genuine cream cheese. If
the filled cheese were sold on its
merits, for what it is, there would
be no great harm done; but filled
cheese is sold under false labels,
just as oleomargarine is sold for
butter. In consequence of the ex.
portation from the United States
OF go much filled cheese, the cheese
trade of the United States has be-
come demoralized, and just as our
trade has fallen off, that of Canada
has increased. In 1879 the exports
OF cheese from New York amounted
to 2,775,899 boxes, and the exports
from Montreal were only 525, 900
boxes; but in 1896 New York ex-
ported but 600,OOO boxes, and Mon
treal 2,148,854. That exhibits the
effect of selling bogus product for
the genuine. Minnesota, Wisconsin
and several other States have
adopted laws against filled cheese,
but only national statute can
cover the whole ground. It is not
proposed to prohibit filled cheese,
but only to require it to be sold for
what it is and also to. lay q tax
upon every factory making it. The
strict constructionists have op-
posed the bill, but it has merit on
10 side.

TRANsANDEAH RAILWAY.
ut was the widest dream ever
tackled by = railroad engineer, and
cost an enormous amount of money,
the objective point being the head
waters of the Amazon river. Some
day the Amazon may be reached
but not this century, AZ the distance
to be constructed is 200 or 800
miles and the mountains are very
steep. The ROAD is standard guage
and is excellently built. Above the
point where we are operating the
road passes through Galera tunnel,
a mile long, which is the highest
railway tunnel of the world. The
height is Is, 645 feet, and the noun
tain top above it II ,574. The Pc
ruvian government had plenty of
money when it undertook to build
tunnel of such dimensions. It re-
quires ten tons of coal to make one
trip up tho mountain from Lima,
the engine hauling FIVE cars. The
trains come down without any as
sistance from the engine, as it is
down hill all the way.
1.-THE Peruvian government is
wise in lite mining laws. A man
locates q mining claim and has
possession as long az he pays the
government regular rental. The
government tax is $40 on each
claim every three or six months,
and whenever the holder of the
claim fails to pay up promptly the
land reverts TO the government.
In fact, the government never per-
mits the title to mining land to
pass into the hands of private in
dividuals or corporations.
1.-THE ancient silver mines of
Peru, which yielded vast fortunes,
are located thirty miles from the
spot where We have erected our
works. Many stories are told of
the values taken from the old mines,
and the stories may be partly true.
We employ thirty white men and
about 500 Indians in the mines
and about the works. The ores
are of such . nature that they
must be thoroughly roasted before
the metal can be extracted.
"The cause Of my visit to this
country" concluded the mountain
top mine operator, lis to incorpor-
ate our company under the laws of
New Jersey. Heretofore we have
been working as a Peruvian COM
pany.
"rhe same capital, with close at
tention to business. invested in
Wood River mines," says Captain
Guyer, "would be equally profit
able without the many sources of
trouble that are constantly coming
up there"
Captain Guyer also owns several
promising mining claims in this
vicinity and contemplates having
the properties worked when he can
give his personal attention to their
development, which we trust is not
far distant, as he says: 81 expect to
return to Wood River when silver
takes raise to $100 per ounce"
