Hyncintiis and Thistles.

The Senate yesterday appropria ted $40, 900
to enable the Secretary of War to investi-
gate the obstruction of some OF the here
tofore navigabe rivers OF the South At
lantic and Gulf states by the aquatic plant
known as the water hyaCnth thing of
beauty when confined but terror to boat
men when allowed to spread itself at large.
Complaints have been received against this
nuisance for several years. and representa-
tions have been made to the authorities
here that great pecuniary loss has resulted
from the hyacinths. which We're originally
introduced into Florida from Venezuela to
adorn the grounds of some of the large
hotels. Thence they found their way to the
rivers and being most prolific they have
spread until in places they extend in solid
masses from shore to shore complete
obstacle to navigation They do not root
in the soil but float loosely about. being
driven by the wind. Currents and surface
drifts carry them together in places and
there they mat sol!diy as TO resist at
times the passage of a steamer going at full
speed. This tendency to shift position rem
ders individual work in clearing the rivers
Of no avail and it has been found necessary
to appeal to the federal government for
aid, just as in the case of the Russian
northwest. notably in the Dakotas. This
plant was introduced by accident and from
a small beginning it has spread over sew
eral states. choking profitable vegetation
and weakening the soil. At seed-tme it
breaks from the tap-root and rolls readily
en- edge before the wind, scattering it's
seeds for miles. Cooperative work by all
the states In the affected district was neces-
sdry but could not be secured and the gov
ernmeDt was asked to help. The unsuc-
cessful fight in Congress for the million
dollar appropriation for this purpose is a
matter of recent history. There is a
curious analogy between these two vege-
table enemies to mankind. each developing
from a small beginning to the most menac-
ing proportions and defying all efforts at
eradication The hyacnth requires water
and a warm climate for growth while the
thistle thrives best in dry soil and low
temperatures. 1t remains to be seen
whether the nation will be more willing to
engage in crusade against the hyacinth
than against the thistle.

continued by the Mckinley administration.
There was not. of course. the slightest
warrant for such an assertion based upon
anything that Mr.. Sherman had said. and
he promptly 50 stated. 1t is now Gov.
Longs turn He has been discussing Cuba
with a travelling correspondent, and his ut
terances are construed to indorse the
Cleveland policy and to warrant the ex-
pectatlon that 1t will be continued under
the new regime.
What are the probabilities? In the first
place no man who has been selected for
chair at the Mckinley cabinet table would
undertake to speak at this time for the
incoming administration on any subject.
The President-elect himself would not do
such a thing. There has been no con-
ference as to Cuba, and hence no policy can
have been agreed upon In the second
place, when the first conference is held.
what will confront the President and his
advisers? The declaration of the ST. Louis
platform in favor of Cuba. the votes of the
republican members of both houses of
the present Congress on the subject of
granting bellgerent rights to the insur-
gents. and the well known popular i'm
patience with the whole Cleveland outfit
for the stubborn and American stand
taken and held against a brave and op
pressed people struggling for liberty. VIII
this have no influence? May the admin
istration which is to start so conscientious
ly as to the party deliverances and prom
ises on the tariff question and the money
question be expected to repudate the
party's deliverance on the question of
human freedom?
Just how soon after the Ath of March
what steps in detail Will then be taken.
cannot. of course. be foretold. Matters
have been muddled and made difficult by
the course Of the present administration.
But that Cuba will find a friend instead of
an enemy in the new administration seems
guaranteed by every consideration of COM

A Good Showing for the South.

The annual readjustment of the sal
aries of Presidential postmasters by
the Postofice Department shows that
the Southern States are going ahead
faster than any other section, and that
despite the hard times of l896-'97
there has beer a great gain in business
in the States traversed by the South
ern Railway. The annual readjust-
ment of postmasters' salaries is the tru-
est index of business there can be, for
the salary in each case depends upon
the business transacted by an office.
In the States of Virginia, North and
South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama,
Mississippi and East Tennessee in
creases and decreases of salaries were
as follows: Increases, 73; decreases,
%. In the Central Northern States
Of Ohio, Indiana, ILLINOIS, Michigan,
Wisconsin, Minnesota and Iowa the
increases were Isl and the decreases
243. In Georgia there were q in
creases and no decreases. Illinois had
50 increases and 81 decreases. There
was only one decrease in South Caro-
lima and 80 in Michigan; only 2 each
in Alabama and Mississippi, and 80
each in Indiana and Iowa ; only 3 in
North Carolina, and 40 in Iowa. These
five Southern States together showed
losses in business at only s postofices
as against gains at IS Offices, while the
five States North just mentioned
showed losses az 200 Offices as against
gains at 100. For prosperous business
the Southern States along the line OF
the Southern Railway certainly lead
the country.

Fooled by a Tenderfoot.

According to resident of Cheyenne
who talked with Washington Star
reporter, certain residents of Laramie
are now convinced that some eastern
men know how to shoot. To use the
CHEYENNE mans words, it happened in
this manner "a finely dressed young
man stepped into a saloon to get a
drink where a lot Of cowboys were
having a good time. The sight of the
tenderfoot was the signal for some fun,
and half dozen pistols were drawn
lust to scare the man from the States.
The stranger wore a silk hat, and the
cry went up shoot the tile. The man
turned with his glass at his lips, and
without tremor drew pistol from
his coat pocket. By the time the drink
was swallowed six pistols lay on the
floor; he had shot every one Of them
out of their owners hands They
crowded around him, and the tender
foot was not allowed to pay for any
thing that night"
