Big Men on the Fourth.

There is the man who fires the can
non, to the immense enthusiasm Of the
little boys and the terror Of the ladies,
who realize what a hero he must be
when he can stand 30 close to the death
dealing instrument during a conclusion
which even at a distance makes them
stop their ears. He is even more impor'
tant than the man who bosses the bar
becue. and is UNNECESSARILY above the
man who stirs the lemonade, who in
turns shoots out the lip at him who puts
up the swings as a fellow of low occu-
patton and worthy Of no consideration.
So great is the immortal Fourth that, in
fact. it communicates some of its great
ness to every n who on that day does
anything Of u public character, and ev-
cry citizen who has been appointed OF
has appointed himself to any public
function in virtue Of that fact feels en-.

c oL AND JACKSON.

Two Patriots Whose Names Should Never
Be Forgotten.
Lincoln owed nothing to his birth,
everything to his growth; had no train.
ing save what he gave himself; no
nurture, but only a wild and nativs
strength. His life was his schooling,
and every day of it gave to his charac-
ter q new touch Of development. His
manhood not only, but his perception
also, expanded with his life. His eyes.
as they looked more and more abroad,
beheld the national life and compre-
hcnded it, and the lad who had been so
cough cut q provincial became, when
grown to manhood, the IL leader in
all the nation who held the whole peo-
ple,singly in his heart-held even the
southern people there and would have
won them back. And so we have in him
what we must call the perfect develop
ment of native strength, the rounding
out and naturalization CT the provin-
cial. Andrew Jackson was o type, not
of the nation, but Of the west. For all
the tenderness there was in the stormy
heart Of the mastcrful man, and stanch
and simple loyalty to all who loved
him, he learned nothing in the cast;
kept always the flavor Of the rough
school in which he had been bred; was
never more than a frontier soldier and
gentleman.
Lincoln differed from, jackson by all
the length of his unmatched capacity
to learn. jackson could understand cnly
men Of his own kind. Lincoln could
understand men of all sorts and from
every region Ct the land; seemed him
self, indeed, to be all men by turns as
mood succeeded mood in his strange
nature. Forum.

Weyler Himself May BE Punished-spain
Fancies the End of the War
Is in si-ht.

Madrid, Dec. 30.-General Weyler in
his memorial to the queen regent on
the subject of McKnley's message to
congress, says he is honored by the at
tacks made upon him. Nevertheless,
since the message contained insulting
observations on the Spanish troops in
Cuba he believed it to be his duty to
address the protest to the crown. The
protest is couched in courteous lam
guage.

Poca and other papers that have pup
lished General Weyler's protest against
President McKinley's message Will be
prosecuted. The publication had been
prohibited on international grounds. 1t
is rumored that General Weyler will be
prosecuted. The authorities refuse to
transmit the protest to the queen re-
gent through the war office.
The announcement of the intended
departure of the American correspon-
dents from Cuba altogether with the
change of attitude of the United States
gave rise to the opinion that the ques-
ton is about to be peacefully settled,
that with good anticipation of autono-
my, the war no longer has a raisen de
etre.
1t is alleged that majority of the
insurgent chiefs have declared that
they desired peace, but We're opposed
to the nomination of foreign officials
having interests in Cuba.

OPEN TO EXPECTATION
WEYLERS EDICT CLOSING THE PORT
OF HAVANA RESCINDED.
About 10000 Bales of Tobacco In the
Havana Warehouses to BE shipped
to the states.

Atlanta. Ga. Dec 30.-A special TO
the Constitution from Havana, via
Key West. says From a responsible
sources comes the information that the
port of Havana will be open to expor-
tation within "a hours. The port was
closed by Captain-General Weylers
edict of May Il. 1896. for the purpose Of
cutting the tobacco industry of the
United States. particularly those OF
Tampa and Key West. off from their
supply. General Weyler did this, he
claimed. to insure permanent employ
ment to the discontented cigarmakers
in Havana during the troublesome
times OF war, but it is known that his
special aim was 10 paralyZe the Cuban
colonies of the United States, from
which was coming the fostering
strength that made the insurgents for
midable. There are about 10000 bales
of tobacco now choked in the ware
houses Of Havana ready to be shipped
to the states the moment the port is
opened 1t Is said that the crop Is
promising. all Of which indicates that
brighter days are dawning for the par
alyzed commerce of Cuba and the wan

TURN THE RASCALS OUT
DONE PENSION APPLICANTS OUT OF
sI3,5ooooO.
Evans Has n Plan Whereby the Services
of Pension At orneys Will BE
Dispensed With.

Washington, Dec. 3o.-Commissioner
of Pensions Evans has been giving
some attention TO a proposition whereby
the services of pension attorneys en-
gagged in the prosecution of claims be-
fore the office may be disposed with
and their work done by officials under
government supervision. Informally he
has been discussing the matter with
members OF the house committee on in
valid pensions. but is not yet prepared
to outline the details of his plan. The
present system. he says, is wrongful
and should have been done away with
long ago.
Disseminating the services of the at
torneys would result in a great saving
TO both pensioners and the government.
and liability of frauds in issuing PEN
sions would be reduced to minimum.
Under government supervision the PEN
sion bureau would have direct control
of the persons appointed TO look after
the cases, whose business IL would be to
see that all honest claims were prompt
Iy and intelligently presented. The COM
missioner notes the fact that S13,500, 900
has been paid out during the past 13
years to pension attorneys py applicants
for the prosecution of their claims.
