New York,s Alarm.

New York is In a paniclxy condition
about her commerce. She is beginning TO
understand that she IS not getting all the
export trade of the country, and, there
fore. she is not satisfied. She is getting
about all the imports, and, therefore,
ought TO be satisfied. If she insists upon
having the bulk of the exports. as well as
pretty nearly all of the imports, she will
find that she is altogether too greedy and
selfish for her own good. Because two
thirds of the exports were shipped from
her wharves a third of a generation ago,
1t doesn't follow that she is to have that
share of the country's exports throughout
all time
There have been some remarkable
changes In this country within the last
twenty years. Railroads now connect the
South Atlantic and Gulf ports with all
important parts of the West. Hence a big
share of the exports is sent to market by
way of these ports. They are nearer to
the products seeking a foreign market
than New York is, and the volume
of their exports will continue TO increase.
New York may complain and say that
and her facilities for handling grain are
unsatisfactory. but the chances are that
the commerce she has lost she will never
regain. The export business of most of
the Southern ports is in a flourishlng con-
oition, and it is going to be much better
than IL is. Savannah, for instance, will
export well on to 1,250,O00 bales of cotton
this year. besides vast quantities of naval
stores. lumber, iron and various other ar
ticles. 1t has been only year or two
since the shipment abroad of phosphate
rock from her wharves began, but the
amount of that article annually exported
is now large. And it is probable that the
time is near at hand when a great deal Of
wheat and corn will find their way to Eu-
rope by way of Savannah. The Southern
ports are becoming aware of their advan-
tages, and they are going to make the
most of them; and, as their exports in
crease, those of New York will decline
New York cannot change the situation,
and, therefore, there is no use for her to
complain.

As a delineator of the traditional Yam
kee character, Matthias Currier Kimball.
more widely known as Yankee Glunn, long
stood without rival, says the Lewiston
(AIe) Journal Kimball has now pracii-
cally retired from the stage, and at ripe
age has settled down to a prosaic life in
the little village of Kingman, Me.
Away back in the carly forties, when
he was a mere lad, little incident with
Junius Brulus Booth, the elder, started
him in his career. KimbaH was only II
years old at the time, and was at work as
an usher in the Lowell Museum. Booth,
who was then in the zenith of his power
and fame, was billed there for three nights.
The play was Richard Ill" Kimball had
thoroughly studied the play and was con-
sidereG a young man of promising dra-
matte ability. On the opening night the
actor who took the part of Lord Norfolk
failed TO show up Booth was in despair.
At last some one suggested that young
Kimball knew the lines of that part, and
he was cast for it by Booth.
OF the event the old Snowman says:
when 1 went on the stage 1 was badly
ratified. Booth was imperious and stern,
which only complicated matters. However
1 got along all right until we came to the
battle of Bosworth Field. In my hurry
had taken the wrong place on the stage
into your place. then wheeling around he
pronounced these lines in thrilling tones
What thinkest thou now, noble Norfolk?'
That we shall conquer, my lord, was my
reply, bud on my tent this morning early
was this paper found Booth was mark
ing out the plan of battle on the sand
When had finished the lines he drew his
sword and with terrific force struck the
paper from my hands, saying: "A weak
invention of the enemyp
was thoroughly frightened at his fear
ful expression, and lodged back nearly
falling to the floor. Booth then repeated
the lines
What thinkest thou, Norfolk, il the
pardon was offered?
BY this time I was completely ratified
and forgot my lines. Booth stood glaring
at me like tiger. The audience were
holding their breath for the next turn Of
affairs. Suddenly 1 realized that some
thing must be done. My nerve returned
and l think it must have been the devil
that prompted me to balance myself on
one foot and drawl out with Yankee
twang;
We'll, don't know, Mr. Booth. 1t may
work.
Instantly the whole house was in an
uproar. AS shout after shout of laughter
went up the black cloud on Booths brow
relaxed, and wheeling on his heel he left
the stage, shaking his sides with merri-
ment. After the play was over he came to
me, and placing his hand on my shoulder.

Soil aud Tobacco.

Once in a while the government issues a
pub. doc" otherwise. public document,
which is of real value to the people, A
case in point is to be noted in the pub
lication of a pamphlet on the soils of the
principal tobacco districts, briefly referred
to in our telegraphic dispatches a few
days ago. Judging from the summary
contained in the dispatches, the pamph-
let contains information of a kind desired
by farmers who are seeking to diversity
their crops 1t goes into an extended dis
cussion of tobacco planting, and the va
rious kinds of soils needed for the pro-
ducton of the various grades of tobacco.
The pamphlet is published for free distri-
button, and each farmer in the Southern
section who is or may be interested in to-
bacco growing should secure a copy of it.
A statement of striking interest in the
extract which we published the other
day is this: 1.-THE tobacco plant readily
adapts itself to a great range of climatic
conditions. will grow on nearly every
kind of soil, and has comparatively short
season of growth. 1t can, therefore, as a
matter of fact, be grown in nearly all
and corn cannot be economically pro-
duced." While the weed will grow almost
anywhere, all weed Is not good tobacco.
TO make good tobacco It is necessary to
have the right kind of soil and climate,
or the effort at tobacco growing will be
a failure. An abundance of the leaf may
be produced, but IL it has not the right
texture and flavor there win be found
no market for it. What is needed. then.
is expert knowledge with regard to the
properties needed in the soil, and how to
place them there whenevr il occurs that
they have not been provided by nature.
The increase in the tobacco acreage in
Florida has been very great in the last
two or three years, and there has been
large increase in South Carolina aid
some considerable increase in Georgia.
Still, not nearly enough tobacco is grown
in these states. Each of them could dou-
BILE its output without affecting the mar
ket, and each could greatly increase
its wealth from the crop without in
creaslng the acreage, by improving the
quality. Florida is now growing a very
fine tobacco for cigars. 1t is asserted that
it requires a connoisseur to distinguish
between the fine Florida tobacco and the
famous Cuban article. Within a few
years, then, with close attention to the
soil with a view TO improving the quality
of the weed, 1t may be that Florida will
produce tobacco fully equal to the "Ha-
vana" grade.
There is probably not farmer in either
of the three states named but could give
| some space about his farm to a tobacco
patch. Even a small patch would yield re-
turns, and the experience gained from it
would be very useful in the event that
the farmer desired to go into tobacco plant
ing upon a larger scale.

DeLome INCIDENT.

The cause of the undoing of Mr.. De
LONE, the Spanish minister, was his ten
dency to write his thoughts too freely.
Before he was appointed minister at
Washington he wrote book in which he
siandered the American people, particular
ly American women. He had to excuse
himself for doing that when he came to
this country in diplomatic capacity. His
excuse was that he was too young when
he wrote the book to write with intelli-
gence and judgment. He doesn't seem TO
have improved as far as his Judgment
is concerned.
He never expected, of course, that his
letter to Mr.. Canalejas would reach the
public, but a clever diplomatist would
never have written such letter. He was
treated with courtesy by the administra-
ton and he knew the President was Civ
ing Spain every chance to restore her au-
thority in Cuba. Notwithstanding that
condition of affairs, he wrote a letter con-
tanning insulting language in respect to
the President. and spoke rather sneeripg-
ly of the government.
His departure from this country will not
be regretted. He saw that mis- usefulness
to his government was at an end as soon
as the letter was published. and he ca
bled his resignation. The Spanish cabinet
did not hesitate about accepting it. 1t was
realized that the sooner he left this coun-
try the better il would be for Spains cause
in Cuba. W
Mr.. De LONE did his country a great
deal of harm by writing the Canalejas
letter He did it more harm than the fill
clustering expeditions which have left our
shores have done it. Many of those who
have favored giving Spain every possible
chance to put down the instruction will
now insist that our government shall take
immediate steps to establish peace and
order in Cuba. If Mr.. De LONE repre-
sents Spanish sentiment, they see that
kindness to Spain is not appreciated by
the Spanish people. Sentiments like
those expressed in the Senate on Wednes-
day by Senator Cannon and Senator Ma
son will become more popular. 1t would
not be surprising if a resolution granting
the Cubans belligerent rights should be
passed by Congress within the next month.
Such a resolution might interrupt the
friendly relations between the United
States and Spain. In fact, a much more
serious condition of affairs might arise If
Spain felt convinced that she was certain
to lose Cuba. Spain would rather lose
Cuba in a war with the United States than
to be driven out of the island by the in
srrgents.

The lola Trial.

Judging from the newspaper reports pub
lie sentiment in Paris is strongly against
lola, who is now being tried on charges
based upon a letter which he wrote TO
President Faure attacking the court mar
tial which tried Count Esterhazy. Why
it should be against him is not very clear.
Apparently all that he seeks is justice for
Dreyfus, who, according to his view, was
illegally convicted.
Before the trial lola and his counsel
had the impression, apparently that dur
ing the trial there would be a thorough
investigation of the Dreyfus case. In fact,
it is believed Zola's purpose in attacking
the Esterhazy court martial as well as
the Dreyfus court martial was TO bring
about a full and open investigation of the
Dreyfus case. The court, however, has
refused to permit any investigation of
the Dreyfus case, holding that that case
cannot be reopened.
To one at this distance it does not seem
that lola is being given fair chance
to defend himself. If he is not permit
ted to attempt to show that Dreyfus was
Illegally convicted, and that Esterhazy
was acquitted in order to clinch Dreyfus
conviction, he has no defense at all, be-
cause there is no doubt that he said
things about the officers who composed the
court martial which justified the making
of charges against him. His defense
consists wholly in his ability to show
that the court martial which tried Drey-
fus did not have sufficient evidence to
convict him and that evidence which tend
ed to prove his innocence was practically
ignored. The case promises to cause
greater disturbances in Paris than it has
yet.

This is emphatic testimony to the fact
that America is the great provision store
