A STATE ISSUE


On which Democrats viii be Beatsn-Ap-
plies TO West vIrRlnln.
The Nation, (Ind.), OF New York, has
the following comments on the Ohio
Democratic platform, They apply as
directly to the resolutions adopted by
ali the Democratic conventions Of West
Virginia as TO those OF Ohio. Every
Democratic congressional convention IN
this state has adopted the same state
Issue. The Nation says:
Since the days OF "Old Bill Allen" the
Democrats OF Ohio have been the most
besotted and perversely wrong OF the
entire breed, as regards the money
question, and the Ohio Republicans
have been but little better as n rule.
The st, LOUIS platform, on which Nc
KInley wag elected, has forced the Re-
publlcans OF that state into line, so that
we can count on them hereafter to sus-
tai the gold standard, even II we cam
not bring them to the support OF the
Indianapolis programme OF currency re-
form. The Democrats, however, have
adhered TO the candidacy Of Bryan, and
the platform Of the free coinage Of sill
yer, although their friends in Missouri.
(the home OF Bland, and the original
free silver state), have passed over both
the candidate and the platform with
the faintest possible notice.
The resolution on the money question,
after endorsing the Chicago platform OF
1886, says: I'VE particularly endorse the
financial plank therein declaring for the
free and unllrnlted coinage Of silver and
gold at the ratio OF 16 to l, independent
of any and all other nations" This Is
sufficient to turn away from the party
every independent voter, every Mug
wump, every Democrat who supported
Palmer and Buckner two years ago. 1t
will do more, we think. It Will repel
many who have grown tired OF the sill
yer issue in politics, and who are look
ing for something fresher and more
stirring In the new questions that have
lately come TO the front Upon the
great question OF territorial expansion,
or Imperialism, the platform has moth
ing to say as regards Cuba. Here the
resolutions favor ian untrammeled OPP
portunity TO establish free and indie
pendent constitutional governmental
nIan which is undoubtedly In cOntem-
plation by President Mckinley and his
cabinet at the present time, and there
fore not fitting to form a political issue
for the election. They favor the "buitd-
ing OF the Nicaragua canal, and they
oppose an alliance with England or any
other foreign pOwer-both excellent
planks, but not exactly controversial at
the present time. No votes will be gain
ed or lost by them. The Ohio Demo-
Gratis favor ian income tax" but do not
saw how 1t should be promoted. AppaT-
emily they believe in passing a bill and
sending 1t to the Supreme Court, to be
knocked in the head again, But the in
come tax cannot be made an issue in
this falls campaign in Ohio, although 1t
is n subject OF growing interest In the
nation. The only sharp line between
parties in that state is the old and
rather stale one of the free coinage OF
silver. on this the Democrats will de-
serve to be beaten.

The French Crisis.

A very serious crisis is facing the
French government, though 1t may not
come Immediately. 1t Is impossible for
the ministry to avoid a revision of the
Dreyfus sentence, II new tTlal may
not be found necessary, something
which seems likely. The resignation of
the minister of war. Cavaignac, Is re-
garded as the removal of the main oppo-
sI,Ion to this course, for cavaignac was
regarded as Dreyfus' chief enemy. per-
sistlng, even in his letter of resigna-
ton, in his belief in the guilt of the
prisoner of DEVILS Island.
Another obstacle, perhaps not 80
grave, Is the political ambition of Pres
ldent Faure. He is anxious for re-eiec-
ton to the presidency ot France. and
he Is fearful that a revision Of the
Dreyfus case will prove unpopular with
the Influences he is compelled to depend
upon, There are other influences, how
ever which may overcome even the per-
soral ambitions OF the President, and
ane Of them Is said TO be his daughter
who ls deeply touched with sympathy
for Dreyfus and his wife.
Even more than presidential or a
cabinet crisis may be the result Of re-
cent developments and more develop
ments that are expected. Higher army
officers than Colonel Henry are trem-
bling lest more exposures impltcdtlng
them in the Dreyfus conspiracy may be
made at no distant day, and a reactIon
among the populace against the army
may vel nrnve a most SERIOUS matter.

Cavalry has at last received orders to

during the night. As soon as the Third
is off the Second will tnke its leave, also
for the same point ana viii start to-mor-
row evening.
Rain has been falling all day, much to
the delight of every one, as ii serves to
lay the dust and harden the roads that
the heavy army wagons have broken up.
Orders were issued to-day by Gen. Car
penter that there should be no drilling
between The hours of a. m. and ] p. m,
but the time should be used ia schooling
the men in army life and the manual of
same. This change was made because
the general saw that the men were be-
ing drilled too hard in the Southern eli
mate, especially at this season of the
year.
Heavy army freights are arriving daily
and being stored here. This seems 10 in
dicate that the camp here will remain for
an indefinite period. Arrangements have
been made for the erection of a govern
ment hospital here. and the building will
be constructed at an early date. 1t is

The regiments have become very ener-
getic as regard to having bathing appa-
ratuses on the grounds and shower baths
have been introduced, a small piece Os
hose is secured and by attaching it to the
hydrant they can have a splendid bath
after the hard work of the day, which IS
not only refres hing, but very healthy. In
the Southern climate heretofore the sol
der boys have, been contented with their
daily bath at the beach, in the surf, but on
account of a walk Of mile there and a
mile back to camp they have begun TO
think that the bath is a well earned one
after all, still thousands are bathing daily
in the surf and prefer ii TO the shower
baths at camp.
The army has a splendid way Of getting
fresh meats. The Armour Company send
the government meats in refrigerator cars
and they are put on sidetracks, the quar-
termaster goes in and tags a quarter for
each company and the quartermaster of
the company goes to the car and cuts q
piece off whenever 1t is wanted until the
car is emptied BY this way they always
have cold fresh meat.

Commissioner Glenn has announced his
intention of placing before the next gem

preparing a report to submit on the
question. Mr.. Glenn is very earnest in
his purpose to add this feature to the
educational system of the state and talks
eloquently on the subject. "I am making
an earnest appeal TO the legislature to
put the industrial feature in the schools
OF Georgia" said he. THE more l think
of it, the more I am impressed with the
importance of industrial education. 1t be-
gins with free hand drawing and goes
into manual training. The child is

a leaf or an apple and proceeds TO more
complex things like houses, wagons and
the like He first draws the object and
afterwards makes 1t. This leads up TO

Livingston of Georgian has received the
following letter from Admiral Dewey:
Flagship Olympia off Cavte Philip
pine Islands, June 17.--My Dear Sir:
have just learned from the last papers
that I am indebted to you for thei ntro-
duchon in the House of Representatives,
of the resolutions extending to me the
thanks of Congress for the naval engage
ment of Manila Bay May l.
Il need hardly tel you that am most
sincerely grateful to you as the author
of the resolution, bringing as it does the
highest honor that can come to an Ameri-
can naval officer in his professional ca
reer. But It is a great pleasure TO ac-
knowledge my debt and gratitude and to
thank you in unstnted MEASURES for the
part you took in obtaining for me the
greatest distinction.
1T is a source of additional pleasure to
me. a Vermonter, that the mover of the
resolution was not a man from the North,
but one from the far South. This is one
of the good signs of the times. In the hour
of danger there is no South, no North, but
one united country.
May we never hear of secUonalism
again. There are no lines drawn in the
navy. I need not say it may interest you
to know that my flag lieutenant, Lieut.
Blumby, Is a Georgian by birth and ap-
pOintment
Again thanking you most cordially,
remain very gratefully and sincerely,
