The news Of the intended with
drawal of the Coosaw Mining com
pany form the phosphate territory
published in the State yesterday
morning created considerable talk
in ofisial circles. This iS the biggest
concern operating in the phosphate
field and fit abandons the field the
industry will be badly injured and
the States income from the royalty
PRACTICAL ydestroped. Governor FL
lerbe said he supposed it was due
to the refusal of the State phos-
phate board TO reduce the royalty
upon the 40, 900 or more tons Of
rock already mined and Oh hand.
The board takes the positsion
that it did all fl could for the phos

President Mckinley is acting
with praise-worth promtness 10
looking to the needs and suffering
Of the people in the Mississippi val
ley. He has called special atten-
ton Of congress to the condition of
the suffers and asked that 1t act
promtly for their relief, citing pre-
cedentsin the years 1874 and 1882.
This is in such striking contrast
with the disposition of our late
great mogul Cleveland, that we can
not fail to be impressed with it.
Cleveland would either. have been
deaf to all cries of distress or ap-
peals for help or would have waited
until all the sufferers were dead,
and then appointed committee to
investigate the matter.-Yorkville

nounce that Mr.. Mckinley has rendered

man. of Ohio, and that the distinguished
Buckeyeostatesmau has accepted and will

tional committees, the former being men.

Treasury portfolios and the latter in con-
ncction with the Treasury and postoflicc
Departments.
1t has been known for some time how
ever, that Mr.. lIannas ambition WAS Il
seat III the United States Senate The
retirement of Ohio'S veteran Senator to
accept the position of premier IN Mr.. Nc.
\lnley's Cabinet opens the way to IL graf
iiication of this ambition. Mr. Sherman's

hence, March 1, 1899 The vacancy ere
atcd by Mr. Shciman's retirement will he
lilled by appointment by Governor Bush
nell, pending the assembling OF the Ohio
Legislature in january 1898.
1t is understood that the old war in
Ohio between the Sherman and Foraker
factions he's ceased and that complete
harmony has been restored among the
leaders. This carries with il the strong
implication that Governor bushnell will
appoint Mr.. Hanna to the vacancy in the
Senate whou Mr.. sherman steps out to
assume the grave Responsibilities con-
nectcd with the head of the Deuartmcut
of State.

Washington Jan. 13.-'rhc open Sos
sion of the Senate to-day WAS much car.
tailed by an executive session lasting two
hours. After this the balance of the tlav
was given TO Mr.. Bacon, of Georgia, in n
speech upholding the power of Congress
to recognize new governments. The Sen
ator insisted that the arrorant assertion

The recognition Ol foreign governments
heretofore given by the President had be-
come effective, Mr.. Bacon said, through
the silent acquicsccnce OF the law making
power.
MIR. Hale interroscd to assert tha. the
lol,icnl conclusion OF Mr.. liacon's argu-
mcnt was to annihlatc the power of the
President ana set up II government solely
by the law making branch.
Mr.. Bacon declared that the logical re.
suit of this claim of exclusive power in
the President WAS 10 make him greater in
arbitrary power than any monarch on
earth. 1t would permit him in case OF IL
triiling uprising in Manitoba to recog-
nizc handful OF people rs constituting
an actual government; while on the other
hand he could withhold recognition from
Cuba although Caban Independence had
been become an accomplished fact. But
the senator maintained that no such
royal power WIS given 10y the constitu
ton to the President. In the most pub
lie manner, the Secretary OF State had
dcli'd the power of Congress and had
announced TO the world that if Congress
adopted the Cuban resolution it would he
vetoed by the President. IT. was practi-
cally Il hint to Congre IS that if its rcsolu
