The state of Mississippi is almost en-
tirely under the government control
of eight brothers When Clan Nc
Lsurin moved into Mississippi he raised
family of eight sons. These sons are

matter of Office seeking and office hold
ing. They are, in point of fact, the
government of Mississippi. One of
them is governor of the state and has
been the states representative in the
national senate. Another is Judge,
still another is warden of the peniten-
tiary two of them have been district
attorneys; one has been state senator
and another state representative; one
has been railroad commissioner and

Spain's COnquerJng Hero.

/
There is groaning down in Cuba
like the moauing of tuba, and the
hearers blood with horror is CONCEALED.
There is hurry and furry and a vast
amount og worry at the news that
Gen. Weyler's in the field. He has
gone, the wreckless fighter, and he
has taken his typewriter and his other
planoply of war. Heis bent upon de-
struction, and there's bound to be a
suction, which is what he is really
acking for. So by every stream and
river all the rushes widely quiver, as
they shudder with an anguish not
concealed; "Oh what awful, awful
sorrow will the rebels feel. now that
Capt. Gen. Weyler's in the ield!''
There's bitter desoation in a sadly
worried nation, now that Weyler has
agreed to move, and his secretaries
many all agree, there isn't any doubt
of what the tirery future soon will
prove. Many dark and dair disaster
now will follow fast and faster in the
burning news dispatches of the week,
while the captain general hurries and
o,re mountain ranges scurries, hunting
| f1eeting rebels down from peak to
peak. While the hunted wretches
fee him in curry fancy we see him ever
running madly onward, breathing
hard; while behind him rolls the
rattle of typewriter's awful battle they
turn out war dispatches by the yard.
Ceuriers rush SO madly thither with
dispatches which the general has just
sealed, and they're sent off on the
wire, every Spanish heart to fire with
descriptions of brave Weyler in the
| field.
See his brave Damascus glisten. See
his secretaries blister their poor fingers
as they pound upon the key. Still
they work on firmly stole. while he
prances on heroic, only stopping still
at.intervals to wheeze. Now he prances
on villege near some fields that
show no tillage; still he gallops brave
| ly onward ore the roofs. Then a mo-
ment's rest he snatches while he reads
his last dispatches and insert few
corrections in the proofs. Just a note
to call attention to some fact they
failed to mention of some deed of
special daring that be did; then an
extra cipher tosses in the "tota rebel
losses" and with steady had directs it
to Madrid. Munching on green ba-
mana turns him back to dear Havana
orders all the city's church bells to be
pealed. and big illumination and
general celebration in his honor when
he comes back from the field.
Let tbe epic poet chatter with their
desultory clatter about heroas of the
very olden times. Let Macaulay's ad-
administration give poetical ovation
to Horatius or the others of his rymes.
Let them sing of clans in tartans or of
those 800 Spartan who refused to give
Aerxes "free passed. Launceot of
Arthur's table, Perseus of Madusan
fable, or the dime museum freak
who chews up glass, but their glory is
but squalor, when compared to that of
Weyler when the latter is seen really
at his best. Let his bluster, brag or
vapor, furnish typewriters and paper,
and his we'll trained secretaries do the
rest. Let him be q Nero, he can al
ways pose hero, and the rebels at his
frown will always yield. He will be a
figure glorious and will always be
victorious while his versatile type
writer's hold the feld-Ex.

Currency Reform tho Great Need.


This neceesaity of currency reform,
instead Of tariff revision, as a romedy
for the evils this country ia now suffer
ing from, is thus tersely Expressed by
the last weekly lotter Of Hambe-
ton & Co., bankers, OF Baltimore;
We hope the darling Tariff bill may
be tho panaeea predicted for ii. We
cannot appreciate how it ia possible TO
'oat your cake and have ii too, )" nor
Scan We understand how q tariff which
will protect our industries, will raise
revenue. The only way in which a
tariff can produce revenue Ia by collect
ing duty on imports. If the impo-
sition OF duty on imports prevents tho
receipt Of foreign goods, ami thus pro
teets our home industries, it will also
prevent tho collection ut revenue. How
ever, perhaps wo do not understand
the tariff question as we'll as those who
receive the benefits of protection.
AZ we remarked. possibly We do not
appreciate the benefits OF tariff for
protection, but we think we Ito appre-
ciats the necessity for reforming our
currency laws, and we confess to feel
ing of disappointment that everything
has bean made Of the tariff and the
cause OF currency reform has been made
of secondary Importance,
The deficiency in revenue was not the
cause OF distrust which haa over
shadowed our country during the past
five years 1t did intensity the evil,
but it did not cause it: and. further
more, a Tariff bill, or a dozen Tariff
bills which might produce untold rev.
onues, will not remove the distrust or
supply remedy
1t was not diEtrust of the credit of
our government which did tho damage,
and which still retRrtla prosperity, but
distrnst OF the ability of the govern
ment to maintain its currency on a
parity with gold.
This spirit of tlistrust ia now only
dormant, amt unless we set our cur
rency in order, will awaken and he once
more an active factor in causing de
| preston and distress.
We still hope that currency com
mission will bs appointed, but even il
Congress shai neglect this duty. we will
nor despair. Wa helieye that the Re-
publican administration and the Re-,
| publican party fully realize that unless
the currency question is settled before
| the autumn of 1898, we will have ~
fight the battle of 1886 over again.
We believe that Currency hill will
be passed by the present Congress, and
that it will be Of such character an
to give general satisfaction, and spike
the guns of the free-silver advocates.
The indianapolis movement ia not
dead by any means, and this united and
determined body. representing the huHi-
ness interests OF the country, will exert
an irresistible influence in reforming
our currency system.

An instance of The favor accorded by
the government to silver currency is
thus told by the Cincinnati CONNER
cial Tribune: IA certain Cleveland
bank shipped down to the sub treasury
5000 silver dollars, while on the same
train that brought this huge pile of the
white metal there came an order from
another Cleveland bank. situated within
stono'H throw of the first. requesting
that the sub treasury send it immedi-
ately 16, 900 silver dollars. 1t would
have taken the bank wanting the silver
just one half a minute to Telephone to
its neighbor to get the coin it wanted.
But the fact that it could have the sill.
yer shipped TO it from Cincinnati al
the expense Of Uncle Sam was what
rendered it Indifferent to ordinary husi-
ness practice. Tho United States gov
ernment paid the express companies the
freight on the 5000 silver dollars from
Cleveland to Cincinnati. and then sent
it back on the next train and paid the
freight for tnat also, and the whole
transaction did not cost either of the
banks a cent. F" And yet the favorite
plant of the silverites is that the gov
ernment will not "do anything for sill
yer. -
