KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Aug. 24-J. D.
Whelpley, editorial writer on the Star,
who is now serving as war correspond.

story to his PAPER Tuesday. He says
that in an interview Gen. Miles makes
bad charges against Gen. Snafter
and Secretary Alger. He de.
c.ared that dispatches were mu.
tilated and suppressed, and that
Shafter's open d!sobedience of orders,
backed by Alger's disregard of recon-
merdaticns are alone responsible for
the terrible c0pdition in which the
army at Santiago was placed.

MAKING MONEY.
Unusual Chances In War Time. Dut
Plenty OF Opportunities All
the Time.

"In war time" said. man of mature
years. there are always unusual
chances that are taken advantage of by
men of foresight to make money. This
reminds me of what Josh Billings said,
that If our foresight was as good as our
hindsight we'd all be rich, or words to
that effect,
"At the outbreak of the civil war in
this country there were long-headed
men who stored away manufactured
cotton goods, bleached and unbleached
cottons, sheeungs, and so on. AS the
war went on, what with the curtailment
of production and the blockade of
southern ports, the price of cotton
scared skyward and manufactured cot
ton goods increased in value corre-
spondingly. Most men peddled out
their holdings as the price rose, but
some held on and got for their goods
six or eight times what they paid for
them.
There has been no such money as
that made in this war yet and don't
suppose there's likely to be. but it would
be easy to pick out things that have
risen greatly in value and that man
might easily have made a fortune on if
he'd known what was going to happen.
Suppose he'd have brought all the bunt-
ing there was. for instance, or taken
fall out of sulphur, or put away few
hundred cases OF Spanish olives. He'd
have found money in all these things
and in various others. But then man
can find money in time of peace, too, if
lie knows how to look"

The Lafayette gazette. [volume] (Lafayette, La.) 1893-1921, 1898-04-02

Baton Rouge Advocate: Every
one who has ever had any ex-
perience in politics will readily ap-
preciate the truth and force of the
following from the Lafayette Ga
zette:
The Times Democrat ought to
know that a handful of people at
Rayne, Bunkie and Clinton does
not represent "public opinion" A
few impromptu meetings gotten
up by fellows who want to get their
names in the New Orleans papers,
may appear formidable under large
headlines, but the members of the
convention should not allow them
selves to be deceived by them. 1t
is very easy thing to get a dozen
men together, organize an indigna-
ton meeting and denounce anything
In every town there is small num-
Der of men instinctively opposed to
everything on earth and all they
want is an opportunity to make a
kick. The suffrage bill may not
have the endorsement of the people
of the State, but the tbs. i'm
promptu indignation meetings are
not evidences Ct this fact.
AS matter of fact as mass meet
ing is about the easiest thing in the
world to get up. Some months ago
the Advocate printed the proceed
ings of what appeared to be for
midab mass meeting held in one
OF the wards in this parish in which
the district judge was denounced
and his perfectly legal and just ac-
ton was declare d to be demon
stration of the evil effects of negro
suffrage. 1t Afterwards developed
that there were seven people at the
meeting, the president had shortly
before been elected to an Office by
negro votes and the secretary, two
months later, became candidate
for delegate to the constitutional
convention on a platform which de-
nounced the Democratic theory
that the negro should be, as far as
possible, denied the right Of suf-
frage. The Gazette is correct. 1t
only takes two men to get Up a
Charge and respectable meeting"
and resolute upon any subject.
The president may be ''large' and
the secretary respectable" and
there you have it.
