OF the people, and the rice men
OF carolina have gone up from their
swamps these many congresses to see
that their pulling infant was duly
nurtured on the national bottle: and
lately some Northern lumbermen, who
nave carried their educated tastes for
pap down intoEthe piney woods, have
joined their Minnesota and Wisconsin
fellows in the hungry cry of the
daughters Of the horse leech.
But there is one industry down there,
a veritable infant, still In it's teens,
not yet old enough to vote, that says
it can stand and walk alone and Is
proving it. The Chattanooga News,
after gazing On the spectacle of the
superannuateds bottle-reared infants
from New England and the middle
states who pleaded for more milk with
the ways and means committee a
week or two ago, says:
It is noteworthy fact that all the clamor

southern competitors have no time to waste
IN seeking governmental favor. They are busy
turning out the many thousands of tons OF
their product necessary to meet their growing
european orders. In the swelling vigor of the
great industry which they have developed al
most In decade they have built a tower OF
commercial strength which seorns assistance
from any source and Is amply able to take
care of itself in any market.
Last week these ironmongers shipped
10000 tons Of their iron to Belgium
and 5000 to Germany, and they are
only bothered in getting vessels IN
Southern ports to carry the iron they
are making and sending abroad and
there underselling the product of for
eign mines. These latest sales were
made for from $6.75 to 81 a ton at the
mill. The men who made them are too
independent and manly to ask for pro-
lection in the face Of their own demon
stration that they do not need it.

THE CAPITOL REPORT.

The report Of the board of state cap
itol commissioners, a summary of which
is published this morning, is admirable
in the clearness and conciseness with
which it shows what work has been
done, and presents the present condi-
ton of the project to the legislature.
1t is thoroughly businesslike in method
and tone, and is in itself an unanswer-
able argument for taking such steps as
will enable the state to occupy it's new
capitol at the earliest moment at which
it can be completed. The record Of
what has been accomplished discloses
no opening for criticism. Every dol
lar so far expended has been applied in
the best interest of the state. The
foundations of the new building are
in place; and the material and work.
manship are completely satisfactory
Plans have been adopted and an archi-
tect engaged, and the next step must
be the letting of the contract for the
main structure, which will require the
expenditure of from 100000 to $500 900.
Having reached this point, the com
mission must rest for several years
to come, unless relieved by legislative
action. Under the terms of the law as
1t now stands. no more money will be
available for building purposes until
1899; and then only a sum sufficient
for the next step. AS the commission
ers point out, the completion of the
building must be deferred for fully ten
years, if the revenues for capitol work
cannot be anticipated The documents
in the case show conclusively the
propriety and the need of some action
to remedy this. The present capitol
Is inadequate to the needs of
the state. 1t does not afford
room for the public business that has
now to be transacted. It is not adapt-
ed to either health or comfort It is
unsafe as place Of storage for the
valuable property Of the state that is
now collected within it's walls And.
most important Of all, the prices of
building material at the present time
are such that an immense saving to
the state can undoubtedly be made by
letting contracts without delay. All
these arguments, convincingly set forth
in the commissions report, demand an
act for realizing Immediately upon the
capitol tax, and pushing the work to
completion. This involves, Of course,
no addition to the total appropriation,
promising, instead, a great economy.
In view Of the facts impartially pre-
sented by the commission, we cannot
believe that the legislature will hest
tate in an act so manifestly to the in
terest of the people, the treasury and
the credit of the state

want. It was faithful to it's masters.
their tools to sit in the senate exer-
lcised their right to command their
hired men when their pecuniary future
was at stake. The next example has
not even that poor apology. 1t is the
senate that has threatened the coun-
try through all these years with
the debasement of our currency, the re-
pudiation of our debts and the fall to
the silver basis. Only that small num-
Der Of senators who represent the sill
yer bullion syndicate had their orders
direct. The balance of them have
found only a malicious pleasure in
keeping up a perpetual agitation of a
subject which they saw and knew
would plunge us into unending financial
misfortune.
Now comes this later opportunity,
and the silly buster of the senate over
everything relating to foreign affairs
has kept business men uneasy and in
tensified the depression of the times.
A large element of this body, we know
not how strong, is bent upon oppos-
ing the arbitration treaty, for no other
reason than the one which appears to
have actuated them in the past, that
of disturbing and distressing the people.
If this treaty could be put to a
popular vote tomorrow, we VEN
ture to say that it would be approved
by at least nine-tenths of our citizens,
and probably by an equal portion of
the voters of Great Britain. The senate
cares nothing for that; cares nothing
for preventing the horrors of war; cares
nothing for the great example to be set
before the nations Of the world; cares
for nothing except the gratifica-
ton Of its malice and the delft
cation of its own everlasting
CAB. 1t is rapidly ceasing to be a
merely obstructive body, a brake upon
the wheels Of progress, and is becom-
ing an influence SO active for evil that
the people of this country will be called
upon presently, in the interest of pre-
serving their institutions and defend
ing their interests, to deal with the
United States senate as it deserves.

KEr0RT OF TIE BOARD TO BE SUB
YlTTED TnlS EEEk.
None but First-Class Structures kill Be
Recommended, Of the Largest
Dimensions.

New York, Sept. 2S.--A dispatch to the
Herald from Washington says;
The Bunce board. appointed by Acting
Secretary Roosevelt. to report on the
needs of the navy with reference to
docks. will submit a preliminary report,
probably this week. The department will
also receive recommendations from Rear
Admiral Matthews, chief of the bureau
of yards and docks, and Chief Constructor
Hichborn as to the points at which struc-
lures Of this character should be built
The pleasing feature to the department
officials is the fact that the board and
Rear Admiral Matthews and Hichborn
favor one class of docks. The board,
which consists of Commodore F. NJ.
Bunce, Commander Sedgwick and Con-
structor Dashiel, has been studying the
dock question for month, and Mr..
Dashiel recently visited Europe, where
he inspected the docks of the several
naval nations.
1t is understood that the investigation
has led to the determination to rec
ommend the construction of concrete
docks and one floating dock. This last
named structure will probably be located
in the Mississippi river, where the rise
and fall will be sufficient to permit of
its use without inconvenience. What
points the board will suggest for addi-
tional stationary docks cannot be said
with accuracy. but some of its members
believe New York already has sufficient
structures of the kind.
1t is understood its report will rec
ommend, besides the floating dock at
New Orleans, docks at Boston, Ports
mouth, Norfolk and Mare Island Naval
Constructor Hichborn favors docks at
these points and another at League ISL
and.
The proposed docks will be huge struc-
lures. They will have draught OF
80 feet at low water and each, it is es-
timated, will cost about s1.25O,6OO. The
floating dock will be built Of steel sec
tons, which, in case of damage to a
ship, can be lowered beneath the vessel,
lift her out Of the water, and with the
help Of a tug transport her to a slip
where repairs can easily be effected.

In getting transfers from one conference

The evils OF the present system as
sumed an aggravated form at the annual
conference Of the New York conference
last year and this was really the cause
Of the present movement to curtan the
power Of the bishops. Last year three
leading churches Of that conference,
which were apparently unable to satisfy
themselves with the timber near at hand,
the terms Of their pastors having ex-
pired, extended calls to men in other
parts of the country and assumed that
they would get the men of their choice

the conference made vigorous protest
on the ground that the conference was

The protest was so strong that Bishop
Walden concluded not to let the three
churches referred to have the ministers

in the New York East Conference, which
