ITEMS FROM THE
FIELD OF WAR.

TRANSFERRED from the war fields mr.
to Thurs lay morning, though ex-
citing events from both Sampson
and Dewey were hourly expected
especially from the latter.
And, by the way, Dewey has
been made a rear admiral. On
Wednesday last President Me-

other nomin atoms, this: That
Commodore George E. Dewey be
promoted to Rear Admiral.

A RACE WAR NOT PROBABLE.

In our dispatches yesterday appeared a
synopsis of a talk which Prof Thomas Mil
Ter, president of the colored agricultural
college at Orangeburg, s. c., had with the
President on the subject of the recent
race troubles in that state. Prof. Miller
is a colored man who has considerable
influence with the people of his race, and
he has studied their characteristics so
thoroughly that he is prepared to speak
with considerable authority in respect to
them.
He Is of the opinion that there will be
no race war in this country This opinion
is based apparently upon two things. The
first is that the chief cause of the troubles
between the whites and the negroes is
politics. and the negro is being fast elm
tied from politics. In several of the South
ern states he is practically disfrancnised
now, and il will not be long before he will
be Virtually eliminated from politics in all
Of them. The second is that the negroes
have no means for carrying on a race war
They have no guns and no ammunition and
they haven't money to get either Even
if they had arms they lack leaders. They
cannot agree among themselves about any
matter Of importance relative TO the in
terests of their race
These reasons all appear to be good ones.
They are reasons which are en-
titled to the most careful considerati ton.
They, may be sufficient to put off any eeri-
Gus conflict between the races for many
years-even for a century-but are they
reasons which insure permanent peace be-
tween the races? OF course, we do not
refer to the occasional outbreaks in which
few people are killed and wounded, but
to a peace which will permit of the growth
in Intelligence numbers and wealth of both
races. We do not think they are. We nave
said and we repeat Il that as the negroes
increase in numbers. wealth and intelh-
gence the antagonism between the races
viii become more pronounced. No one can
foresee what the political conditions in
this country win be a quarter of a CEN
fury hence Judging from the past, how
ever. It is safe to predict thac there will
be party contests IN which one party or
another will undertake 60 utilize the ne
gro vote TO a much greater extent than
IL is being used now. In that event the
pegroes win not lack encouragement to

TIE WAR TAXES.

Several interviews with prominent mem
bers of the Republican party have been
published recently on the question as to
whether there is much probability of
repeal of the war taxes. Mr.. Hanna ex-
pressed the opinion that some of The war
taxes would be retained, for two reasons.
One was that our imports are falling off
steadily, because we are doing our own
manufacturing to a very great extent and
supply the home market. Therefore. our
revenue from imports is decreasing. An
other reason is that our annual expenses
win be much larger than they were before
we began the war with Spain,
1t can be stated without fear of contra
diction that the Republican party isn't
going to repeal any of Che war taxes. II
is barely possible that it may consent 10
repeal the stamp tax, because it is an
annoying tax, and calls the peoples at
tention to the war taxes more than any
other. But If it repeal that tax it Is GER
tain that 1t will put on some other tax
in the place of it.
The expenses of the government are GO
ing to be far greater than they were when
we began the war with Spain. The admin
istration is preparing to build a great
navy and to greatly enlarge the army.
And it will cost a vast amount of money
10 maintain the greater army and navy.
There will be enormous expenses connect
ed with the Philippines and with Cuba
and Porto Rico. 1t is a conservative esu-
mate that the war with Spain. in one
way and another, win cost US not less than
$500, 100000 That is an enormous sum, but
1t must be remembered that we are far
from being through with the trouble yet
If we get the Philippines 1t may cost
many millions of dollars and thousands of
lives to establish a stable government in
the islands. And the increase in the pen
sion charges must not be over
looked. The pension claims growing
out of the war win be enormous, and the
burden they will impose on the people will
continue for many years The climate of
Cuba and the Philippines will make pen
sioners by the thousands. No, there VIII
be no reduction of the war taxes The
people will be fortunate if those taxes are
not increased.

al PoIiticnl Trick.

"All this political excitement recalls my
brief career as candidate" unused a De-
troiter who now limits his practical poll
tics to voting, says the Detroit Free
Press. Il was living at the time in a dis
trict where the people had a good con-
gresham and most of them were in favor
of keeping him. But of course there was
a dissatisfaction, as there always is, and
by an immense amount of hustling for
three days and nights preceding the con-
vention I was nominated.
My party had a good safe normal ma
jority, but knew that some of its MEM
bers were out for revenge and we made
things hum. There was but little time in
which to do d great deal, for the old
organization was iukewarm and l had to
perfect another one. 1 kept the wires hot
to all parts of the district, and | was
never more pleased than when bright
operator from another city came to me
with his advice. He urged me to send
all my dispatches to my chief lieutenant
in cipher Then l could say just what I
wanted to and the enemy would be none
the wiser He would handle the matter
for me if / would just have a wire run
into my headquarters. He arranged the
cipher and used it with wonderful skill
All l had to do was to write what 1
wanted to send and he did the rest. I
kept him at that key from morning tin
late at night. and he never complained
Indeed he often suggested things that 1
had better explain and orders that 1 had
better issue.
Everything went on as though it were
creased. and I was dead sure. But l was
simply slaughtered My operator was in
the employ of the opposition All it had
