The Augusta Chronicle rather favors the
suggestion that the name Of yellow fever
be changed to something less terrifying.
THE fear of yellow fever" says our con-
temporary, ''is out of all proportion with
the character of the disease. The
people are injured as much by the fright
as the fever. Free from the
fright panic which follows an announce
ment of yellow fever we believe the death
rate would be greatly reduced There
are already Several other names for the
disease, any one of which might be adopt
ed. The Spaniards call it Ell Vomito, and
Nomito Negro; the French call it Fievre
jaime; the Germans call il Gelbes Fieber;
down in Central and South America they
call it Vomito Prieto or Vomito Amarilli,
and in New Orleans a doctor calls il
Yellowoid. But after all each name means
yellow fever, and any other name that
might be given 1t would mean the same
thing. Il would be practically impossible
10 deceive the people in respect to 1t, even
If it were for their own good. The best
thing to do is to try to minimize the dam
gers from It by thorough sanitation and
by educating the people in the matter of
the treatment of it,

The Court of Appeals of New York has
declared unconstitutional the law requir-
ing the branding of all prison made goods
sold in that state, no matter in what state
manufactured and prohibiting their safe

can be used to enhance the wages of la
borers in certain factories, there is no rea-
son why that power may not be used to
regulate the rewards of labor In any other
field of production. IF the police power
extends to the protection of certain work
ingmen in their wages against the compe-
tiIion of other workingmen in a penal in
stitution, why not extend it to all other
forms of competition?"

been much more kindly in their criticism
of the conduct of the war than those of
the North. Mr.. Mckinley is really re-
ceiving more loyal support from Southern

that the Southern newspapers, as a rule.

According to report, some officials in
: Washington are advocating the proposition
that the United States furnish the money
40 build a great railroad in Cuba. Is
there any good reason for thinking the
government would have better luck with
railroad investments in a foreign coun-
try than 1t has had with such investments
in it's own territory? The history of the
Pacific railroads is too fresh in the minds
of the people to make government as
sisted railroad in Cuba a popular prop
osition.

WORTHY SONS OF WORTHY sIREs

In the regiments of United States vol
unteer companies of the South is repre-
sented. These organizations, in some in
stances, date back to the first part of the
century, and have served in several wars.
The Savannah Volunteer Guards, which
is now the First Battalion Second Regi-
ment Georgia Volunteers, was in service
in the war of 1872 and the Florida Indian
wars. During the civil war it was known
as the Eighteenth Georgia Battalion, and
served with great distinction in Georgia,
South Carolina and Virginia, and was in
the last battles that ended with the sur
render at Appomattox, The Jasper
Greens of this city, a company of the
First Georgia Regiment, United States
Volunteers served in the Mexican war,
and, as two companies, formed a part of
the First Regiment of Georgia Volunteers,
c. S. A, and was in the arduous campaign
which began with the invasion of Geor-
gia by Gen. Sherman and continued on
through to the last struggle in North Car
DINA. 1t was also part of the garrison
of the defenses of Savannah.
The Republican Blues of this city, an
other company of the First Regiment
Georgia Volunteers, U. S. A., served in
the war of 1912 and in the civil war as a
part of the First Volunteer Regiment of

SO ia is throughout the whole of the
state. The Macon Volunteers, distin-
guished and honored military organization
of Macon, and the Floyd Rifles and other
companies of that city that made names
for themselves in Mexican and Confeder-
ate wars, became part of the great army
of United States volunteers. Throughout
the entire state, the sons of those who
fought under the Stars and Bars can be
found in the same commands in which
their fathers fought bled or died, march

North Cardinals Experience.
From the Mobile Register Dem).

North Carolina is going through a lesson
of experience that is costing the white
people of the state dearly; but it goes
without saying that when the white peo-
pie of the state get into control again.
they will run their party organization to
the best interests of the state, and the re-

II relates TO running the affairs of their

A South Carolina newspaper calls upon
Somebody" to explain why it is that
Atlanta, claiming a population Of 100000,
cast less than 5000 votes in an exciting
municipal election the other day." There
are several possible explanations They
may have very large families in Atlanta,
mostly girls; a great many voters may
have been out of town on business that
day; the excitement of the campaign
may have been great in in
tensity rather then in volume;
possibly six - voters to 100 popu-
lation is about the right thing in Allan
ia; possibly many voters were so excited
they forgot to vote. And then there are
one or two other possibilities, which will
not be mentioned for fear of doing the
capital city an injustice

The attorney general of South Carolina
has just made a ruling relative to what
the size of a graveyard may be. He says
the size is not limited by law, and may
be a mile square or more The land must
not be used for any other purpose than
as a burial place, and the graveyard must
not be held with view to profit or specu-
1ation. The case came up in the matter
of the seizure of the old Maverick plan
tation graveyard, in Pickens county, for
back taxes The Mavericks, from whom
the place took its name, were relatives
of the Van Wycks of New York, who
are now Mayor of the city and Democrat
&c candidate for Governor of the state.

Mr.. Clevelands famous order against
"pernicious activity" by persons in public
Office has been set aside by Col Perry
Heath. who is first assistant postmaster
general. According to Col Heath's state
ment. as quoted in the Baltimore Sun,
there is absolutely nothing in the civil
service laws that forbids a postmaster or
Gny other government official from partici-
pating in conventions. making speeches or
exercising any of the political rights which
belong 10 him as a private individual" He
says the only restriction upon them is that
they SHAH not levy and collect political as
eessments. 1t is not improbable that Cot
Heath's statement is intended somewhat
in the nature of notice to postmaster
collectors and other officials in close Re-
publican districts that they are expected
20 get out and whoop it up for the party.
The Republicans are rapidly awakening
10 the fact that they stand a very good
chance of losing control of the House IN
the approaching election.

An artificial sandstone is now made In
Belgium which has many advantages over
the natural stone, being better able to re-
sist climatic influences and susceptible of
manufacture at small expense. 1t is made
by following the method of natural for
nation which consists in the main in the
presence of hot water and great pressure
The stone is a silicate of lime, and in it's
manufacture so per cent. by weight of
dry, clear, coarse sand Is mixed with 20
per cent. of hydraulic quicklime finely
ground and kept in an anhydrous condi-
ton. The mixture is placed in a box of
iron, whose sides are readily removable
and which can be inserted In a closed
boiler filed with hot water, where the
pressure is IS pounds to the square inch
The temperature is kept at about 329 de-
greeS Fahrenheit and the mixture re-
mains for Y hours. When the box is open
ed a block of sandstone IS found which
appears exactly like the natural material
but has the advantage of being In addi-
ton absolutely homogeneous. When first
removed it is so soft that 1t can be cut
with knife but it hardens and acquires
great strength upon exposure to the at
mosphere The material reslsts. compress
sion up to 1859 pounds to the square inch
and is not affected by frost. The white
freestone of France will only stand a
compression strain of 1922 pounds to the
square inch. so the artificial sandstone
has in this respect a distince advantage
while in appearance it is very similar to
the famous Gobertange stone. The esu-
mated cost of manufacture If given at 10
cents per cubic foot, and this figure Is TO
be compared with the cost of French free
stone of not the best quality, which is
worth about q cents per cubic foot in
blocks of irregular shape. BY the new
process regularly shaped blocks of any
size can be produced and also various
tints can be given to the product.

LONDON, Nov. 1S.-Joseph Chamber
lain, who was the guest of the Conserva-
tive club in this city, in replying to a
toast to his health, spoke at length on
colonial matters. In part he said:
Experience has taught us that we
require q better guarantee than a paper
agreement to secure the policy of an
open door. The best security, in my
opinion, is the desire of other nations,
like Japan, Germany and the United
States, to preserve an open door. Japan
is becoming an important power with
whom our relations throughout have
been those of cordial friendship, while
with Germany and the United States,
GU relations, l rejoice to say, are now
closer and more cordial than they have
been for some time. Germany and the
: United States are the two great com
I mercial nations whose interests are
identical with our own"
