A Remedy For The Panic.

The above is the title of pamph-
let of 20 pages by Bryan Tyson, for
merly of this State, but late of
Washington, D. c. 1t is we'll writ
ten and will be found to be very in
terestlng and instructive on the
most important subject that can pos
sibly elgage the attention of the
people at this time. The following
is an extrac:.
We nave seen that in 1873 the entirs

healthy condition. That by the con.
tinued application of vicious and dis
honest legislation q malignant car.

The Cost Of Holding Cuba,

Philadelphia Times.I
The Spanish government is said to
have opened negotiations in Paris and
London for a new loan of 5000, OOO. 900,
to be secured by a lien on the tobacco
monopoly. The cost of maintaining the
war in Cuba is piling up ominously. 1t
has been met thus far by successive
advances from Spanish and foreign
banks upon Cuban bonds, the amount
so issued being stated at So, SOC, 900, of
which not more than $15,OOO,OOO re-
mains unused, and the war expenses
are something like five millions a
month.
This represents only part, and pos
sibly the least part, of what the Cuban
war has cost. A recent estimate in a
Cuban paper puts the military ex-
penses of the past year at sixty mil
lion dollars; the losses by the destruc-
ton of the sugar crop at fifty millions :;
by the destruction of estates, villages,
railroads, live stock and other prop
erty, fourteen millions, and by the
paralysis Of commerce, ten millions
more. These estimates are not extrav-
agant and they foot up the prodigous
total Of $134, OOO, 900 as the actual losses
of one year.

"THE FARMER"

The Texas Farmer is blessed in as
much as he does not have to give a
mortgage on his crop to the Fertiliz-
ing Company. There are no Fertiliz-
ers sold in Texas; no need of them,
while in many of the States it cost
the farmer from three to five dollars
per acre for fertilizers. Why you can
buy good lands in Texas for what it
cost to fertilize in others. Write to
A. A. Gallagher, Southern Passenger
Agent, Iron Mountain Route, Chat
tanooga Tenn, and he will send free
OF charge maps and books giving
price and character of soil, product
raised and yield per acre.

GIANT TRUST MATCHING.

1t IL Reported. That Meeting to Perfect
1t Will BE Held In Paris Next Month
Americans Threaten to Invade Euro
pssn Markets II Tho Foreigners Do Not
Enter In 1t.
Word reaches Washington through
reliable channels that the consolida-
ton of the great steel companies of
America into a trust, deal success
fully put through in New York last
week, will be followed at once by an
international trust, to control the
steel market of the world.
A meeting to that end has already
been arranged for. It will be heldnext
month IN Paris, and there will be in
attendance representatives. of the
American trusts, and the proprietors
of the great steel and iron plants of
England and the continent.
The American trust represents q
combined capital of not less than
$500, 100000. If the international
deal is made, about $45O,OOO, OOO
capital will be involved, four times
as much as is invested in the stand
ard Oil trust, the greatest commercial
com bination of the age.
The Americans are the active
agents in the promotion of the en-
larged consolidation. They will 90
to the Paris meeting prepared to lay
before the foreigners a startling
proposition.
1t is Cd that they control the steel
market of the United States; (2) that
if the European concerns do not en-
ter upon an agreement for a divis-
ion of territory and a scale of prices
the American trust will invade the
European market and undersell
home production, the scheme being
to assess American consumers to
pay for the loses incurred in the
European field.
This is the phase of the PROPOSE
ton of peculiar interest to the Amer
lean people. It is sensational in
the highest degree and suggests a
campaign that is liable to touch the
pockets of rs, OO0, 900 people.
There is little reason to doubt the
substantial accuracy of the plan as
outlined. It admits of almost
boundless application. An indus.
trial aggregation of capital that
gives employment to a quarter of d
million men, designed to control ab-
selutely the trade of the world in the
worlds greatest staple, is a project
OF stupendous proportion, beyond
anything yet undertaken in the field
of consolidation.
Yet its practicability is admitted.
Nothing in their line is too vast for
the Krupps, the Carnegies, the Greys
and the other great producers at the
head of the monster private con-
Germs.

FOR VILLAGE IMPROVEMENT

Organizing and Carrying Out Movement
for tho Retirement of Towns
John Gilmer Speed writes upon
how to organize and conduct Vii.
lage improvement Society in April
Ladies' Home Journal. He prefaces
his paper with the assertion that the
future prosperity Of the country
village depends, in great measure,
upon its suitability for the summer
residence of those who prefer, at that
season, to leave the hot and crowded
Cities" and argues further that ga
Village improvement Society should
be pure democracy, and within Its
membership it should embrace every
man and woman of good repute in
the neighborhood, and besides this
there should be established an aux
Hilary league of children. This
league should te asked and urged,
and instructed to assist the main
society. Such societies are usus lly
supported by fees and dues. This is
very we'll in village where the
majority of the people are quite pros
porous and usually have a store of
ready money at their disposal. But
even in such places 1 prefer the meth
cd OF supporting the society by pure.
~ voluntary subscriptions of money,
labor and material. Labor is lust
a. good as money, and is given much
more freely by all save those who
are rich"
After canvassing The matter Mr.,
SPEED suggests apublic meeting, to
be addressed by some one familiar
with the details Of the work, preced-
ing preliminary organization, and
the adoption of cons tuition. Per-
manent officers aud committees
should be named at the first meeting.
and preceding the second one the
first labor day should be observed.
"On that day all the men and teams
In the villag should congr % ate to
work III d the direction of the exc
cutive Committee, and the ladies of
the society should provide a picnic
luncheon for the workers that dav.
In some untidy villages the whole Of
the first labor day NIGH be given to
cleaning ur; in others the side walks
might be put in better order. or
pieces Of new sidewalk constructed:
in nearly every village it would be a
good thing to put the grounds and
fences of the public schoolhouse in
order. But there are always verv
obvious needs everywhere before the
advent of the village improver. But
what is done that day should be done
with some thoroughness, and the
monday luncheon is apt to invest
the day with some of the character
istics of festival. What is done
will be discussed in every house Of
the village, and the achievements
will inspire confidence or provoke
criticism"

Political Pot-POuri.
fContlnne.i from hrxs payr }

Chairman Hol.on thinks that
Butler is trying to capture the Re
publican organization. He says that
the only way in which cooperation
can be effected. is for the Populists
TO come to their convention and re-
pudiate Butler and those in power.
Otherwise he thinks it will be a
Tillman fight over and over again in
this State.-
The CAUCASIAN thinks that this is
about on par with Mr.. Holton's bal
dsrdash when he said that four
6fths OF the Pspulists we're already
in the Republican ranks, and that he
would put the Republican livery on
the other fourth-or something ike
that.
We accepted . telegraphic account
of the Republican State convention
of South Dakota, last week as the
truth, and We got misled. We were
led into saying that the convention
adopted . straddle platform and
made Senator Pettigrew "take
wafer on nlS silver position. Now
q prominent man in that State, Hon.
Jno. H. King, says:
THAT dispatch was q fabrication, !"
"Senator Pettigrew never recanted;
the convention did not turn him
down; it did not declare against free
silver, and the other seven delegates
did not hold meeting and resolve
that Senator Pettigrew should not
serve on any Of the convention com
mittees. The Senator was elected q
delegate by reclamation upon a
platform drawn by q man instructed
for silver, and who is also a delegate
to st. Louis. Senator Pettigrew is
as free and untrammeled upon the
financial question as any man who
will be in the convention.
