A CLEAR FIELD.
Col. Wilson's Ideas as to the Duty of
 Territorial Officials

Yeterday Col J. F. W.lon handed to the new executive his resignation as a member of the board of trustees of the Normal school to take effct at tin date of the appointment of his successor.
 Col Wilson's resignation was based on his view of political policy. The statement was in substance made: That, Governor Hughes having been removed, and Governor Franklin ap pointed on grounds that the good of the public service demanded it, it was intended to affect, not only the ex- governor himself, but his administra- tion and policy as well-that the whole was to be affected and new regime inaugurated That he believed that the new executive should therefore be left unhampered and unbiased by any of the influences of the outgoing ad- ministrad:on, and so believing, con- sidered it the duty of all appointees of the ex-governor to resign and those that did not, should be made to, that the new executive should have clear field from which to establish his new administration. It concluded with a pledge of his individual support to the Democratic administration to be in augurated.

 and Gold.

WASHINGTON, April 9.-The par iamenItary movement in Germany to- wards bimetal,ism is described in the report to the state department by United States Commercial Agent Moore at Weimar.

 The reichstag shall declare that in ternationlal bimetallism best answers the interests of Germany and request the confederate governments German staites) to do all that is in their power in order to establish and secure by in- ternational convention, a fixed propor- tion of value between silver and gold.
 MT. Moore explains that this eco- homie committee is not a branch of the regular organization of tlhe inn perbal reichstag, but a self constituted committee with permanent organiza- tion composed largely of the Agrarian party and it is in the ranks of this party that bimetallism finds its sup port in Germany.
 ''It is known '' says MT. Moore, 'fthat a corresponding proposition will be submitted simultaneously fn Paris and London. This movement has created great attention in Europe to the none. tary situation"

 He kept his word. The policeman who was called in by the shouts of the saloon loun gers, found the living negro almost frightened out of his wits, in the grasp of his victim and drenched with his blood. So desperate was the grip that they had to be dragged apart

A WOman's Waist.

It is q matter for rejoicing that
fashion is no longer to decree q
slender waist as something indis-
pensable to propriety and grace.
The natural waist of a woman of
the average height is about twen-
ty-eight inches, and any less size
is attained only through arrested
development or compression by
means of whalebone and steel.
The amount of room inside these
twenty-eight inches is absolutely
needed for the proper working of
the machinery of the internal eco-
nomy. In spite of this fact girls
very often bind the yielding ribs
into such narrow compass that the
waist measures twenty or twenty
two inches only, and you will now
and then hear some mother of q
family, with very different waist

to be proud of, that when she was

The Farmers Saving
Bank.

It has been very truthfully said
that the hog is the farmers saw
ing bank; that into this bank he
can carry all of his surplus sgri-
cultural productions, getting them
into the best and most available
shape. First-class farmers say
that in no other way it is possible
to 50 thoroughly work up all sur
plus agricultural products as by
having q sufficient supply of hogs
to consume the same, with sde-
quste pastures for them to avoid
the necessity for costly feeding at
any time. At the Calhoun Agri-
cultural Camp Meeting, held last
September, one Of the most pro-
minent agriculturists of this State
said that he could produce 5000
pounds of pork from q single acre
of alfalfa grown in the Red River
valley. It may look q little odd
for the planter who has been ship
ping his hundreds of bales of cot
ton, OF his hundreds of hogsheads
of SUGAR to New Orleans. 10 be
found now discussing the superior
quality of Poland China hogs, or
the pet-lookiDg. Berkshires; but
that time has come, and the more
quickly We open these savings
banks and begin to place our sur
plus therein, the more rapidly
will we gain strength, whatever
stress may come. The hog is our
savings bank.-The Southern Far
