readers OF The Herald and Ncws: 1t is
g matter of impossibiiity FOR roe to give
anything like the latest news, unless
the editor will agree to run u daily
paper. 1t seems for tho past few weeks
that he has beon 80 stacked with news
that my Chips had to lie over in the
Office at least u week before they APP
peared. We don't say that our news IS
OF 50 much Importance, but suppose we
were TO say that Bill Jones WAS very
sick, not able to sit up, and then in Il
week or so afterwards the item appear
In the paper, and Sam Smith would
happen to meet Jones In his usual
health. Then Smith would accuse
Chips OF an untruth. But The Herald
and News is growing to such an extcnt
that we will have to run,it into q big
daily. then the Chips, Kays, Clodhor-
per, and all the rest of tho force can

Ihc war progresses slowly and yet
we suppose as rapidly us it can. We
have been told for about two weeks
that Sampson was ON the lookout for
the Spanish fleet and Il conflict was
hourly expected, and that is about as
far rs 1T has gone. In the meantime
VIC suppose the poor starving Cubuns
we were going to save and give free
dom and bread arc still starving, while
we are chasing the Spanish fleet over
the high seas. Why should We not
take possession of Cuba and give the
people bread and liberty instead of pos
sessing ourselves Of tho PHILIPPINE Is
lands and hunting up the Spanish fleet?
But then we arc not running the war,
ana we suppose those who are know
what they arc doing.

NEGRO REGIMENTS FOR The WAR.

NEGRO REGIMENTS FOR CHE WAR
The Herald and News has taken the
position all along that the negroc,
should be given tho opportunity an(
we think should be called upon to dt
some of tho fighting with the rest o
the people. We can sec no reason why
they should not be willing and anxiou,
to help II struggling nation u people
secure their freedom.
The Columbia Register of Saturday
publishes an item Of news to the effect
that DR.. Pope had asked permission tC
raise colored regiment and wanted
the appointment as colonel, aud then
criticzes him severely for doing so and
speaks as it it were reproach upon
his name and family. We do not know
anything about the facts in the case,
but granting that it is true we do not
see any disgrace in it, or any reelection
upon the name or family OF any one to
raise 4 negro regiment. In fact we
think some ono should cndeavor to
raise such Il regimen: and that the ne-
grOcs should be permitted to bear n
part OF this war. We are not in the
confidence Of DR.. Pope and do not know
whether there is any truth IN the state
ment that he has offered to raise the
regiment, but we can see nothing
wrong or disgracCful about it, and
really think the negroes should per-
form their part rs citizens and soldiers
in this war. We have referred TO this
matter simply to reail!rm our conric-
tlon heretofore stated that the negroes
should be given an opportunity 10 do
their part and make up at least part
OF the army to invade Cuba. Consider
ing the climate We have little doubt
they would make good soldiers, and if
properly oficercd would mako mcca
fighters They could stand the climate
better than the white people, and if
Or. rope or any one else desires to
raise such Il regiment we say let him
DO it aud give him all the encourage
mcnt possible. Out Of the 10000, 600
people in this country about onc-tcnth
OF them arc negroes, and they should
help defend the flag. They receive its
protection and enjoy the same privi-
leges as tho other citizens.

1T looks now rs if the campaign will
narrow down to an issue between the
dlSpcnsary and prohibition, and if it
docs the prohihiiionists are going to
develop moro strength than some Of che
politicians in the recent State cOnycn-
tlon imagined when they endorsed the
dlSpcnsHry. The Herald and News is
opposed to tho di*pcnsary because we
think IL is wrong for the State to en-
gage in any business, and especially the
whiskey business. 'ihcrc are also
other reasons why we oppose the dis
pcnsary. 1t makes jobs aud opens the
gates ~ fraud. Wcarc opposed to prohi-
bitlon by statutory enactment because
1t will not be enforced, and blind tigers
Will flourish and We will have the sale
OF liquor without any revenue from it..
AS it appears now Thn Herald and
News may Dc left high and dry to
watch the fight. y high license sys-
tom under dispcnsary regulations we
arc firmly convinced is the best solu-
tion of the liquor problem. We pro-
pose, however, TO stand by our friends
regardless Of their positions on this
question, and shall await develop
