A SEVERE INDICTMENT,

The New York Times is noted for its

hardships, all of which would have been
avoided if Il competent man had been at

That is precisely what ought to happen

that the gallant little army upon the

and should have been even put in peril

COTTON MILLS COMING SOUTH.

1T is unprecedented, so far as New

Fall River. hive of industry if there
ever was one. should suffer loss of $40
per cent. of its population in single
year. Is Il like fate to descend upon
other cotton manufacturing centres in
consequence of Southern competition?'
Yes. unless they introduce other in
dustries to take the place of the manu-
facture of cotton. The day will come
when nearly all the cotton will be manu-
featured near the fields where it is
grown. That is rs certain as any natural
law. If slavery had not cursed the
South. the cotton mill industry would
have taken root here instead of in New
England seventy-tive years ago. Slavery
made the South poor. and not rich as
had been supposed. But for slavery the
Sot.th would have been dotted with
mills. The cotton industry is coming
South rapidly. The best thing for the
Fall River people to do is to pull up and
come South That is the manifest deSti-
ny of cotton mill owners and cotton mill

RELIGIOUS FREEDOM.

Editor Bailey, of the Biblical Recorder.
thinking the News and Observer has not
fairly stated his position, asks ms to
print a communication correctly defining
how he stands. We do so gladly, believing
that Catholic and Baptist alike should
have liberty in this free country even if
it is denied either in Spain. 1t seems
that we were in error only in the cause
that led to Editor Bailey's attack. We
supposed it was occasioned by the re-
ceptiOn given the troops ut the Catholic
rectory. He says that he did make
the preaching of Il sermon by Roman
Catholic priest the occasion for exposing
the insincerity of the Pope of Rome
This is even a poorer excuse
than il the article had been
prompted by the reception. There
would be, on hygienic grounds,
warrant for criticizing priest for feed
ing ice cream to soldiers accustomed to
a diet of hard tack, but to make the
preaching of n sermon the basis for his
uncharitablc article, will not strike Chris
tan men as proper or justifiable.
The attitude of the Pope of Rome has
nothing to do with the simple preachin:
of sermon by a Cath
Ollie priest in Camp Russell. There was
no compulsiOn on any soldier to hear
him. The sermon could not possibly do
harm. Protestant preachers and Y. NJ.
G. A. consecrated workers preach and
speak daily to the troops. Would Editor
Bailey have an order issued saying:
mo CATHOLIC SHALL
PREACH THE GOSPEL TO
VOLUNTEERS"
If so, is he not guilty of the same
intolerance for which he justly criticiz"s
the Pope? Freedom to worship God
according to the dictates of conscience
is the highest liberty. If Catholic
priest is denounced merely for 1.-THE
preaching of Il sermon" to the soldiers.
are we not as guilty as the Pope, as
the preachers of the Established church

Carolina. as the Puritans who drove
Roger Williams into the wilderness. and
all others who have sought to ensIave

SkOKElESS POWDER ABSOLUTELY NECES
SARY.

The men whose duty it was to have
the soldiers properly equipped. and who
failed. are now saying that in open fight
ing the smoke made by the Springfield
rifles may serve to obscure the marks
men from return fire. while the man arm
ed with the Smokeess gun is exposed to
aimed fire.
This claim is shown not to be n good
one by the Springfield Republican,
cited fact that the men of the Second
Massachusetts regiment were twice
ordered out of firing line before Santa
go because the smoke of their rifles
drew the fire of the enemy" In the
light Of this statement the claim of the
superiority of the old kind of powder
falls to the ground. One fact of this
kind outweighs all the apologies and ex-
plantations of men who failed to furnish
the modern smokeless powder. Another
piece of evidence that shows the claim is
not well founded is that. since the San
tiago fight. smokeless powder in large
quantities has been shipped to the troops
under Shafter.

The following account of the eclipse as seen
from the Orient steamship Orotava has been
communicated by a lad to his father:
"The eventful 22d of January dawned beauti-

Of primitive savaeery. We or at least most OF
us share with the, savage an. aversion against

You ask, What attitude toward IL should
American Jews takef Tho most important
thing, in my opinion. is not to ~exaggernte the
extent or seriousness Of this social prejudice
Not everything that Is decried as 'anti.Somi'
tism' is really such and jews make a most serious
mistake In suspccting an anti-Jewish prejudice
when mono exists Secondly, tho American
Jews should endeavor to purge Themselves Of
preiudices. Let thom not take every. oppor-
tunlty OF parading TO tho world that in their so
cial Intercourse they draw the lines between
jew and non Jew quite as sharply as do tho
GentiIes. The growing isolation OF Jewish So
ciety, especially in our largo cities, from tho
rest Of the community, is n menace to tho devel.
opment OF healthy. social instincts that arc to
take tho place Of tho lower traits accompanying
primitive culture n condition invariably
marked by the predominance of the clannish
spirit. Tho tribal system aud tho patriarchnl
system have undoubtedly their good sides. but
neither system represents n high ideal Of social
life. Thirdly. in my humble opinion. IL tho
'Zionisticstad' tfor such in,larRe measure IL is,
continues TO spread. 1t will most likely lead to
an increase Of the feeling against the Jews in
this country"
