FARMERS ASK \ BOUNTY.

\ proposition to pay bounty on
eNpOrtations of American wheat and
other staple farm products was sub
mittcd to the Ways and Means Com
mittee OH Tuesday 10y gentlemen repre-
senting the State Oranges of PennsAyl-
vania and Virginia. They pointed
out to the members of the committee
that this is the only possible way in
which the prices OF American farm
products could be kept up to a renum-
lucrative figure.
This is nothing more than 4 princi-
pie that for a long time has been ap-
piled to other products. Manufacture
ers using imported materials get re-
bate of duties paid on those materials
when their manufactures are exported.
The gentlemen who appeared before
the committee urged that such Il boun-
ty by increasing the price Of wheat in
foreign markets would also raise the
price in this country. They were lis
tened to with marked attention, and no
one attempted to deny the efficacy OF
the plan.
Is it not possible for the enlightened
craftsmanship of the nineteenth cen
tury to devise some means whereby
one of the great productive energies OF
the American people may be stimula-
ted? The depression in Agriculture is
widespread and alarming. 1t is a
question that deserves the most serious
consideration of Congress.

MIR. ECKELS ON THE SOUTH.

In dispatch to the Atlanta .]o"rnat.
Comptroller of the Currency Eckels
SAYS: "If the attention of the country
could bc directed toward attending to
business affairs in a business way, I'M
disturbed by wars and rumors ofwars
and promises OF renewedand continued
agitations, the country would enter
upon an era Of prosperity which, in the
largest measure. would fall to the lot
of the people of the South. The South
today offers a marvelously rich field
for investment and the capital is at
hand to he invested, but it will not 90
there or elsewhere when disquietin2
rumors are everywhere to be met with
and an uncertainty as to gaining re-
turn for it conironts the the investor.
Truer words were never spoken, says
the Baltimore SIM. and as Mr.. Eckels
is a practical man of affairs it will be
gratifying to the people of the South
to know that he has so high an opinion
of their section rs field for investment.
There is nowhere today in the United
States such a safe and inviting oppor-
tunity for capital as the Southern
States. They have climate, soil, min
eral resources and water power in
abundance. and to the manufacturer,
the miner and the farmer they present
the most substantial inducements.
Moreover, the South has manifested
since the election most sensible dis
position to give politics rest" and
to get down to business That is one
of the most encouraging signs Of the
times, and if, by the time we have an
other campaign, the Southern people
shall have returned to their best politi-
cal traditions, there is good reason to
believe that Mr.. Eckels' prediction will
be realized and the South will secure
the largest measure Of prosperity.

FILIHU ST FIRING
EXPEDITIONS

The Spanish authorities feel little ap
prehension from reported tilibustcrin@ eN-
petitions owing to the thorOughness with
which the Cuban coast is being patrolled
by the Spanish forces. 1t is pointed out
that the success of these expeditions large
ly depends upon the ability to deliver the
goods to the insurgents, and that the mere
landing of an expedition counts for little.
Under the system established by General
Wcvler the movement fanny considerable
insurgent force toward the coast is noted
as step toward meeting an expedition.
The insurgents have no pack trains or the
ordinary means of transporting military
stores, and are obliged to receive and
carry goods by hand. In handling boxes
of guns or any considerable supply of am
munition. a large number of men is neces-
sary to dispose Of an expedition by hand.
For this reason the approach of the Three
Friends expedition was made known to
the Spanish commanders by the movement
of large insurgcnt force toward the coast.
A battle ensued> and the insurgents were
driven inland The point at which the
Three Friends subsequently tried to land
was that to which the insurgent force was
headed. At present, it is said, this patrol
is so complete that no considerable force
of insurgents can move without unmask-
ing the destination of an expedition. and
thus giving ample time for its apprehcn-
sion. This is but ore means of apprehen-
the scouting of expeditions before their
departure According to official adviccs
received here, the insurgents are in des-
pcrate condition since the death of Maceo.
The report that Gomez crossed the east
ern trocha is apparently disposed of by a
statement coming from reliable source
on the island, saying that on December %
some time after the date of the reported
crossing of the troch:-Gomez was still
held to the eastward of that strate gic line.
1t is believed also by officials that the in
surgent leader La Cret is either dead or
dangerously wounded. The disposal of
ulln from the dctudl Ilelu Ol cOnlllCt Is re-
garded as next in Importance to the death
of Maceo. 1t is pointed out that the in
surgent cause is one depending on leaders,
and that the cause itself will end with the
disposal of the leaders.
Close scrutiny is being made by officials
of the circumstances under which the
steamer Dauntless left Jacksonville. The
stated purpose of the vessel was wreck
ing expedition, and for this no clearance
papers were needed 1t is believed, how
ever, by the Spanish authorities that the
Dauntless has gone to succor the party
which first went on the Three Friends,
and, failing to land in Cuba, returned to
No Name Key off the Florida coast. The
information sent here leads to the belief
that after the Dauntless has taken on
board the party at No Name Key she will
proceed to Cuba and cndcavor to carry
out the expedition which the Three Friends;
failed to land.

1t is said that the Pacific railways
bill which the House is to vote on next
Monday, means, in effect, that the gov
eminent is to borrow 100000 at
b per cent. for 80 years to loan to the
railways at per cent, and is to sub
ordinate the governments liens to 9th
er claims. In other words it is gi-
gantic scheme to rob the people. and
ought to be suppressed in its incipiency.
The President has declared that he will
foreclose the government mortgage
if 4 suitable arrangement is not effect
ed by the companies with Congress at
the present session. and it is hoped that
the people will be protected by the
courage and honesty of the outgoing
or the incoming Chief Executive
should the occasion arise for the eXer
else of the veto power.

Gossip concerning Senator Shcr-
mans name with the secretaryship of
State under the Mckinley administra-
ton took fresh start ut the Capitol
Wednesday. 1t is understood that Mr..
Sherman has received an invitation to
visit Major Mckinley at Canton, and
that he will leave for Ohio within the
next few days. There is little doubt
in Washington that the Senator on this
visit will be formally offered the State
portfolio, and the impression about the
Senate is that he will accept. These
statements are based on the belief that
Senator Allison will not accept cabi-
net place.
