They Must Have Our Cotton.
From the Boston Globe DENY.

1t is very good thing for America
when she has wheat to sell to a wheat
needing world, as is the case the present
petition in this product in seasons to
come In cotton, however. she has some
thing which, judging from statistics for
the past four years, will always be in
brisk demand from abroad. According to
forthcoming report from Washington,
cotton in its raw and manufactured state,
forms % IS per cent. of the total value of
goods and merchandise exported in the
year ended June 80 last. This is a decided
gain for the Dixie product In percentage
but II has been i'm the lead since 1892, and
bids fair to keep ahead. despite the ex-
pected gain in our shipments of wheat
and other grain.

Some time ago the republican newspa-
pers were searching files Of old theatre
cal programmes and teasing various act
ors and actresses for the purpose OF dis
covering proof that Mr.. Bryan was at one
time an actor. 1t appears, from evidence
lately adduced, that whether or not Mr..
Bryan was ever on the stage, there are
others" The philadelphia Times prints
on article descriptive of President Nc
Kinley's histrIonic art. 1t seems that in
'the green and salad days" of the Presi-
dent he appeared as the low comedian on
the stage of a prairie college theater.

Miss Cisneros Is evidently pretty well ac-
quainted with the status of affairs in
Cuba, and it would seem from an inter

quite sure complete independence would

domination. Speaking of Maceo, she said
II was probably a good thing for Cuba

From the Augusta Chronicle Oem).

Even in Switzerland, where the refer

correspondent tells of one farmer named
Bauer who had eccentric IDEAS Of the
franchise. Bauer said he was accustomed
for a long time always to vote no" but
recently he had invariably voted yes, and
since then he had had much better luck
with his title. No doubt Bauer believes

Leprosy is a germ disease, and is pro-
duced by a specific bacillus; man is the
only animal in which this bacillus exists;
leprosy is contagious but not hereditary;
the isolation of the patient is desirable,
and in many cases should be compulsory.
These are the main points of the con-
illusions reached by the international lep-
rosy conference, which has Just adjourn

At a meeting Of the Milwaukee Diocesan
Council of the Protestant Episcopal
church in the city of Milwaukee the other
day, the constitution of the diocese was
amended by striking out the words Pro
testant Episcopal" and leaving the title
of the organization merely The Church"
1t is hoped and believed by members of
the Milwaukee body that the movement
thus begun will spread all over the coun-
try, and that other divisions of the Epis-
copal denomination will drop all qualify
ing words and adopt the simple and d.
rect title. THE Church" Should the
movement become anything like general,
the probabilities are that other denomina-
tions would enter a strong protest.

WHY Not Put II to a votes

In New York, the other day. Mr.. Cleg-
horn, the father Of Princess Kaiulani Of
Hawaii, being on his way from London TO
Honolulu, was asked what he thought Of
the proposition to annex Hawaii to the
United States. He said: IF President
Dole and his friends in Hawaii want an
nexation, why don't they put it to a vote?
I am sure that not one native in hun
dred would vote for it. I have been
resident Of the Islands for forty years, and
know what I am talking about"
President Dole and his friends know the
sentiment in the Islands respecting annex
alton just as well as Mr.. Cleghorn does,
and that is the reason they don't take
ballot on the annexation question. They
know annexation would be overwhelming
ly defeated
When asked why they don't submit the
question to a popular vote, they say the
people haven't sufficient intelligence to de-
eide as to what the best interests Of the
Islands require.
It may be that the natives haven't
great deal of intelligence. 1t is certain
they haven't much courage or
they would have run Dole ana
company into the sea long before
this. No tribe of African savages would
have submitted, without a vigorous pro-
test, to what the inoffensive Hawaiians
are submitting to. Mr.. Dole and a few
Of his followers, with the aid of the Unit
ed States minister, overthrow the legiH-
mate government Of the islands and foist-
ed themselves on the people as their rul-
ers. They don't find their position alto
gether comfortable, and so they want the
Islands annexed to the United States.
| They expect, of course, to fill whatever
offices may be created in connection with
| annexation. Their tenure of Office would
then be pretty certain. Now they live
| in alarm, fearing that the natives will
| find a leader and run them out of the
country, or that the Japanese or some
other people viii take possession of the
islands The annexation scheme win be
| before congress next winter. 1t is proba-
BILE that 1t will be adopted, but before 1t
| is, 1t is quite certain there will be some
truths told about Dole and company.

necessary for the Convention called
