HON I'M CARTER

In our announcement column to-
day will be found the name of Hon.
J.. NJ. Carter, Of Texarkana, who
aspires to represent the Srd Dis
trict in the lower house Of congress.
Jacob Monroe Carter is so well and
layorably known 10 the territory
where the Chronicle most largely
circulates that Il would appear
superiuous tor us to print words
commeudatory Of him either a. a
public funtiouary or private citizen.
Tho young in years, he is a man of
brilliant parts, and In the nation S
halls, should his fellow
citizens deem il wise 70 send him
there, he would undoubtedly make
his influence felt tor the good OF
his people and his state. As Pro
scouting Attorney for two terms Of
this circuit he made a splendid re-
cord as a public servant, and dur
ing that period we never heard a
word Of censure touching his
official or private conduct. He is
eminently self made man. Born
amid the rugged hills of Pike coun'
ty, in his youth he toiled in the
cotton and corn fields in the spring
and summer, attending the district
school in winter These experiences
in his early life were prominent
factors in moulding the character
of the man. These experiences in
his early life we're prominent factor;
in moulding the character of the
man. Having been an humble
struggling toiler himself, earning
his bread by the sweat of his brow,
he has a lively appreciation of the
dignity of labor, and will always be
found in close touch with and a
loyal, vgilant friend of the COM
mon people. AS a democrat, he
stands squarely upon the Chicago
platform, never bolted a nomina-
tion or scratched a ticket Hope

EDITOR TEXARKANIAN:

EDITOR TEXARKANIAN:
Having learned that a report is in
circulation in your city and county
to the effect that discharged Mr..
1. A. Bickham-who l learn is can
dIdate for sheriff in your county
from my employment for drunken
ness, l wish to say that this is a
base falsehood. I employed Hr.
Bickham on September l, 1897, for
four az months, and during this
time he was strictly sober and very
attentive to business, making me
one of the best men I have ever
had, tor the length Of time. Mr..
Bickham's time was up with me on
January J, 1898 employed Mr.
Bickham as an extra man for only
four a. months-but, if business
had have been better / would have
retained him indefinitely. He drank
no whiskey, beer, &C, while with
me, and was not discharged for
drunkenness-but was sober and
very attentive to business all the
time. He improved more rapidly
while with me than any, ever with
me, He is well qualified for any
business for which he may aspire,
1 bespeak for him a successful race,
knowing, that if elected. your coun-
ty will have a sheriff that will be an
honor to your county.
Very respectfully,
NJ. JACOBS.

African Skins,

Between 1850 and 1875 it is certain
that some millions of blesbok, wilde
beest and springbok must have been de-
stroyed in the Transvaal and Orange
Free State. The slaughter was so prodi-
gious and the variety of wild animals
so great in these wild regions of South
Africa that the result made sensible
difference in the leather industry of Eu
rope. The markets were filled with
skins which, when tanned, gave leather
of q quality and excellence never known
before, but the origin of which, as the
material was still sold under old names,
purchasers never suspected. Hides of
the zebra and quagga arrived in tens of
thousands and good as horsehide is for
the uppers of first class boots, these
We're even better. Smart Englishmen
for years wore boots the uppers of
which were made of zebra and quagga
skin or from the hides of Glands, onyx
and gemsbok disguised under the names
of calf Or patent feathers. London

made up her mind to this condition be-
fore instituting the overtures for peace.
Another point upon which the United
States, 1t Is believed, will insist IS the
cession of certain coaling stations IN the
Ladrones and Carolines, probably Guam
island in the former and zap island
in the latter and perhaps one other IN
different quarter Of the world not yet
designated. These territorial conces-
sions, 1t Is expected, will be regarded
as sufficient by our government as COM
pensation for the expenditures made
by this country without a specific de-
mand for money indemnity.
The last consideration Is the one
which promises to give more trouble
than any other-namely, the settlement
Of the future Of the Philippines. There
Is reason to believe that the president
himself has not determined how this
subject shall be treated. A coaling sta
ton is wanted there, but beyond that
t may be that we will not care to go.
Have Themselves to Blame.
An entirely different attitude might
have been assumed by our government
but for the course adopted by the insur-
gents under Aguinaldo, which, 1t is as
serted leaves the United States under
no moral obligation to care for his peo-
pie. The revolution in the Philippines
began some time prior to the outbreak
of war between the United States and
Spain.
Since the war the insurgents have as
sumed very imperious attitude and
have conducted their military opera
tons without particular reference to the
wishes of the American commander, Adj
miral Dewey, have been generally in
tractable in their relations with our
troops and sailors and finally have set
up an independent government of their
own absolutely without reference to the
United States.
These things, it is held here, are quite
sufficient to absolve our government
from responsibility for what happens to
Aguinaldo in the future, though of
course it Is not meant by this to assert
that it has definitely made up it's mind
to relinquish all claims to the islands
beyond the coaling stations already re-
ferred to.
Touching the question of indemnity,
it may be stated that our government
will not be in the mood to abandon any
claim of this score If SPAIN by further
resistance, obliges it to go to the heavy
expense of sending a naval expedition
to Spain and of continuing on a large
scale the military movements now I'M
der way.

VOLUNTEERS OF HAVANA.
How They We're Won With q Pocket
Handkerchief Promise.

no" Ihey Were Won With q Pocket
Handkerchief Promise.
In 1868, when the revolution of ten
years in Cuba began, no volunteers ex-
listed in Havana worthy of being called
SUCH There was only one old regiment,
and when Governor General Lersundi,
then of the island, tried to complete
this regiment he found the task diff
cult OF accomplishment on account of
the prevailing unwillingness to enlist.
But just at this time most providential-
ly for the relief Of the dilemma, some
unknown hand covered the walls of
Matanzas, near Havana, with hugo
posters promising each Spaniard his
passage home and the privilege of car
rying away with him whatever his
pocket handkerchief could contain in
the event Of his enlistment.
The effect of this stimulus to the flag.
glng pulse of the public was electrical,
and the enrolment of 90, 900 men fol-
lowed within As hours. The volunteers
thus came into existence with their
chiefs i'll the majority. But the ruined
merchants of the city of Havana soon
found out and objected to the newly
risen power. This opposition increased
upon the arrival in Cuba of the new
governor general, Duice, who came in
1869 as representative of the revolution.
airy government in Spain. He was a
man of good faith, empowered bv the
government to grant Cuba all the re.
form she coveted and that had lately
been offered. He would undoubtedly
have put term to the revolution, avert
ing all the ruin and devastation which
followed. But such an easy and mag
unanimous course did not suit that class
which faced inevitable financial ruin as
consequence of such policy.-San
