STRICT and evenhanded justice In the
cases of the men charged with the mur-
der of Albert J. Fountain and In all
other criminal matters. This is the po-
sition taken by this journal. Some OF
the Democratic papers, headed by the
Albuquerque Democrat, do not like this
position and want men, charged with
crime, to be unmolested, because they
are Democrats. That's their way of do
Ing business.

l. story is told of an old commodore at
the Boston yard whose method of meas
uring religious affairs was with the same
memorable rule, says an exchange. One
Sunday morning he was aroused from his
nap by something out of the usual routine
being ANNOUNCED from the pulpit, and he
sternly addressed the chaplain with:
What's that? What's th@?" The chap
lain demurely repeated tho notice that
"by order of the bishop Oh the diocese

ocese, and when I want service in this
chapel I'll let you know. Pipe down. :
and he cleared the chapel.
On one occasion he heard different
voice in the pulpit from usual, and look
ing up. he asked: "Who is that up there?
Is that you, Billy McMasters?'

ra,.. os a Famous FiddIer.

The grand oak tree of the famous fiddler,
Neil Cow, has lost one of its giant
trunks" says the Westminster Gazette.
The tree stands near the village of Inver,
not for from Dunke.d, where Neil was born
and lived and died. He was a great favor
lite with the Duke of Atholl who, indeed,
paid him a salary as family fiddler; but
he had scant respect for Dukes and Ouch
esses as such. That lassie O yours has
a good ear he remarked to her Ladyship
of Atholl one day. Somebody who over
heard the remark ventured to suggest to
-Nei. that the Duchess might be offended
at having her daughter called a lassie
What would call her?" said Neil. Il
never heard she was a iaddie."
Neil, like too many others. was fond of
whisky. The Duchess of Gordon once COM
planned to him of a giddiness and a swim
ming in her head. "Faith," said Neil,
with twinkle in his eye, IAN ken some
thing o that, your ladyship." And so he
did, no doubt. Another story is of a gen.
tleman meeting him walking home from a
Perth ball one morning. It's a very long
road you have before you" remarked the
sympathizer. "Oh, it's nae the length OF
that's troubling me, but the BREATH said
Neil, as he passed on. Cow is buried in
the churchyard of Little Dunkeld.

Roughly estimated, the claims of Ameri-
cans against Spain for damages done to
their property in Cuba and as a conse-
quence of the rebellion in Cuba, amount
to some S270O0,OOO and there are probably
still other claims that will be forthcom-
ing. These are the claims that have been
taken over by the United States as one
consideration in the terms of peace. This
sum, therefore, must be added to the sum
of $2O,OOOOOO to be paid Spain for the Phil
ippines, making our liabilities S47. 900, on
top of The hundreds of millions which we
shall have expended on our army and
navy as a consequence of the war by the
time the volunteers are mustered out.

SOME OF GEN. BLANCo's OPINIONS.

There are two or three things in Gen.
Blanco's interview in the Herald that are
likely to attract attention. One is that
he thinks Cuba and Porto Rico will be
more prosperous in the future than they
have been in the past not because the
United States will deal with them more
wisely and liberal than Spain did, but be-
cause their great and varied resources
have been widely advertised by the war,
and. therefore, capital and immigrants
will rush to them as they never have be-
fore.
1t is doubtful If the lack of prosperity
In Cuba is due to the want of knowledge
of the resources of the island. 1t is due
to the lack of a good and stable govern
ment there. If the island had had wise,
liberal and strong government it would
now be three times as rich and populous
as it is. If it becomes prosperous it will
be because this country gives it an en-
lightened and stable government.
Another point that Gen. Bianco makes
is that Spain will reap benefits from her
defeat. The colonies which she has lost
are, he says, Spanish in sentiment, and
win continue So Under the new order of
things their commerce will Increase great
ly, and it is Gen. Banco's opinion that
the greater part of it will so to Spain.
Gen. Blanco says frankly that he was
not in favor of suing for peace. He was
satisfied that with the 10000 loyal Span
iards which he had in Havana, and others
that could have been readily brought
there, he could have resisted successfully
an attacking force of at least $4,000 men.
1t is natural of course for him 10 feel
that he could have made it extremely diff
cult for our army and navy 10 take Ha-
vana. He has very good opinion of him
self as a soldier. His government, how
ever, was too to wise to follow his ad-
vice. 1t knew after Manila and Santiago
that 1t was folly for Spain to continue the
war, or even to think that Spanish sol
diers and sailors were capable of meeting
in battle successfully those of the United
States. If Gen. Blanco lives few years
he viii be surprised to learn that all that
Cuba needed TO become very prosperous
was good government, and he will be still
more surprised TO find that notwthstand-
ing the Spanish sentiment the trade OF
the island will be with this country and
not with Spain.

When George r. Peck first became an
attorney for the Santa Fe says the Topeka
State Journal, he went 10 a small town in
Western Kansas TO argue a case that had
been brought against the road for damages
TO several head of cattle that had been
killed. The case was tried before judge
who was decidedly German The witnesses
were examined and the case gone through
with, and the attorney for the prosecution
arose and made a strong plea for convic-
ton. He waxed eloquent and the judge
paid close attention.
Are you troo?" asked the judge when
the lawyer stopped.
Yes, your honor"
you wins de case" said the judge.
''But I want a chance to argue my side
of the case said Peck.
mo he wins" stoutly asserted the
Judge But Peck commenced to talk and
gradually his talk led up to the case and
before the judge knew it Peck was argu-
ing the defense. The judge listened closely,
and when Peck had finished he said:
you wins de case"
But you have already decided in my
favor" said the other lawyer.
Oats all right. 1 reverse my first de-
cision. Dis man wins, and the judge
stuck to his last decision and Peck won
his railroad case.

Representative Livingston. of the Fifth
district has a plan for governing the Phil
ippine Islands. 1t must be a mighty poor
tative from the Fifth has not a plan to
cover His idea is to get around the lack
of constitutional authority for holding
colonies by making the government per
manently military. BY governing with The
sword and bayonet we should, he says,
escape the necessity of either putting the
islands into line Of promotion to statehood
or of going beyond the constitution and
governing them as colonies.

sAvANNAH.s SPLENDID TERMINUS.

=
Mr.. J. Il Marshall, city editor Of the
Charleston News and Courier, who spent
several days in Savannah endeavorng TO
find out why this city handles more than
100000 bales of cotton year. WINE
Charleston handles abut one-third as
many, and why Savannah leads Charles
ton so far in commerce and trade OF an
sorts. publishes in his paper a well digest
ed and unbiased letter in which he reaches
the conclusion that Savannah leads the
procession because she has better faeili-
ties for doing business. Savannah has
more railroads and more cotton merchants,
says Mr. Marshall, and two splendid
terminals" in the docks of one of which
there were recently sixteen big steamers
and I don't know how many sailing YES
seIs' berthed at one time.
OF the Central terminals he says: Il
could not describe them in a column.
At the present time $7Oo,00O is being
spent in enlarging and improving them.
. 1t goes without saying that a rail-
road with such accommodations can offer
better rates, as it offers better facilities,
to exporters han could a road that has
a limited room, or no room at all, at its
terminus" This latter, of course, refers
to conditions at Charleston. The termi-
nails of the Plant System also aroused Mr..
Marshall's admiration. He notes the num-
Der of cotton ships taking cargo at one
dock. and refers to "a forest of masts"
both up and down the river, bearing 'ir-
REPUTABLE testimony to the business which
is being done" in Savannah.
Mr.. Marshall might have gone on to say
that not only has Savannah, at the pres
ent time, "two splendid terminals" but
that arrangements have been perfected
under which third splendid terminal"
is to be built on Hutchinson's Island
across the river from the city. by the
Georgia and Alabama Railroad. 1t is
expected that this terminal will be we'll
on toYards completion. and that some of
Its docks will be ready for business, by
the opening of the next cotton season. This
terminal, according to the plans, is 10 be
one of the most perfect in the United
States, and second in size only to the
terminal of the Pennsylvania Railroad in
Jersey City. The money for its construc-
ton is in sight, concessions have been
made by the city, and the engineers are
now a work upon the site. And what is
more, there will be business enough for
this great terminal without hurting the
business of the terminals of the Central
and the Plant systems.
Mr.. Marshalls letter ought to prove an
inspiration to the people of Charleston. He
has visited a real, live, busting, hustling.
busy city, and he has described a few of
its features to his readers. We hope that
they will profit by the information he has
given them.

A NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. INsURCENT.

There are indications that Agulnaldo,
the chief of the Fiiplnos, is going to
give our government great deal of trou-
BILE 1t is admitted now that a mistake
was made when he was called from his
retirement in China and asked to take
hand in the war against Spain. 1t was
wen known that he was unreliable, and
would not hesitate TO sell out to any par
ty Our government will have no trouble
with him, provided it is willing to buy
him at his price. He seems to have an
idea that there is no end to the wealth
of this country. Therefore, he is prepar-
ing 10 put his price high for getting out
of the way
He hasn't a great deal of influence
with the better class of Filipinos but he
has large following among the ignorant
masses, and he can induce them to give
us an immense amount of trouble in our
efforts to establish law and order in the
| islands. Some of our higher officials seem
to think that he will be satisfied with a
| small Office under the government which
we shall establish. Those who know the
man well say that, besides demanding a
big bride in money, he may insist upon
! having a controlling place in the new
government
Aguinaldo will soon find out however.
that dealing with the United States is
quite different from dealing with Spain
At the very outset he will be Informed
that no nonsense from him will be toll
Grated. If he is not disposed TO be rea-
sonable, he will be dealt with in a way
| that viii quickly make him understand
that a new order of things has been es-
tablished in the Philippines 1t viii not
| do TO adopt weak policy in treating with
| him. If he is given the least bit of a
chance he will stir up a war that may
J cost us thousands of lives and millions
of money. Just now he is demanding a
very large sum from Spain for the re-
| lease of Spanish prisoners. 1t is safe to
! say that his demand will not be compiled
with. And the prisoners viii be released.
| just as soon as our government has au-
thority to act in the islands. Aguinaldos
scheme to make himself rich by black
mailing our government and the gov
eminent of Spain will not be quite as sue
cessful as he hopes il will.

Those esteemed Contemporaries of ours
that have been making humorous para
graphs about the transport Chesters be-
ing aground in the river, and advising the
government to change the port of en-
barkation to their cities, have really been
doing Savannah a great service. They
didn't mean to do it, of course, but they
have advertised the fact that the Chester
came into this port drawing "a feet of
water and went out drawing %; and there
is no other port of the South Atlantic
where this could have occurred. The mon
ster steamer, as a matter of fact, could
not have gotten in at the so-called rival
ports, much less have gotten out drawing
foot more water than when she arrived
The Chester went from the city TO the
sea drawing % feet. and never touched
in the channel. She will discharge her
men and supplies and come back again.
Meantime other great transports are pass
ing up and down the river every day. And
thus it is demonstrated beyond question
that Savannah is the best port of the
South Atlantic.
