The Immune Regiments.

Very litde is appearing in the public
prints about the immune regiments. There
is a chance that their services win Tot
be needed, except for garrison duty either
in Cuba, Porto Rico or the Philippines.
However, there is nothing yet in sight TO
justify the prediction thai the war is near
its end, except SPANS financial weak
ness, her threatened domestic troubles aud
The loss of the greater part of her navy.
AS far as known the progress made in
raising the ten immune regiments which
were authorized Is not as rapid as it prom
ised TO be. The idea of such regiments
originated with Col. Duncan N Hood, a
son Of Gen. John B. Hood He is only
% years of age and graduated from West
Point in 1896.
He had great difficulty in getting the
President TO regard the idea of immune
regiments favorably. but the Louisiana
senators helped him and 50 did senators
and representatives, from other states. No
doubt the thought first was TO enlist in
these regiments only men who had had
the yellow fever, but it soon became APP
parent that the immunes qualified 10 en-
ter the army were not so numerous rs il
had been believed they We're. Therefore
it was decided to accept recruits who are
accustomed TO the climate of the South
ern states.
Col. Hood succeeded in raising his regi-
ment sometime ago. He wouldn't accept
the colonelcy of it, however, until the
regiment had chosen him for that position
All of the officers were chosen by secret
ballot, and it is stated that all of them
are well qualified for their respective posi-
tons. If Col Hood has the opportunity
| he viii probably make fine record. II
he is "a chip off the old block" he Ger.

Hon. George Tnlman pitt into few
words the other day the platform upon
which he is running for Governor of
South Carolina. Said he: Il favor no dis
pensary and no state bar of any kind but
advocate local opton--to have either dis
pensary, county license or prohibition -
That is the only way TO settle The 2iquor
question satisfactorily. Under local OBJ
ton public sentiment is prepared to sus-
tain the local laws. When a community
votes prohibition, it has prohibition, for
the reason that the majority of sentiment
sustains it, Georgia has been working

The fight off Santiago between the
fleets has brought Capt. Jack" Philips
of the Texas strongly into public notice;
and he stands well the scrutiny, since it
shows him TO be a Christian gentleman
as well as an intrepid fighter. When the
Spaniards sailed out of the harbor. on
Sunday morning, they began the battle.
As their first shot was fired Philips OBJ
served THAT means defeat for them;
the party that fires the first shot in bat
tie on Sunday is sure TO be defeated. 1t
is true as far back as history goes" When
one of the Spanish cruisers had been
beached and her hag was being hauled
down an explosion occurred on board of
her. The men of the Texas started TO
cheer Don't cheer. boys" called Capt
Philips. those poor devils are dying"
When the fight had been completed and
the victory won, Capt. Philips called upon
his men to join him in silent prayer Of
thanksgiving to Almighty God. These
three incidents give an insight into the
character of the man. lie is an honor to
his country.

The United States now have several
hundred Spanish prisoners which will
shortly be brought 10 this country. The
Chicago Tribune insists that these pris-
oners ought to be put to work and made
TO earn their board. Besides the expense
of feeding them, for which the Chicago
paper thinks Uncle Sam ought to reim-
burse himself, st is argued that a little
healthful exercise, like road building, for
instance, would be a good thing for the
prisoners, as it would save them from
Indigestion.

The stamp Puzzle.

From the Raleigh IN. O.. Post Dem.).
Do you know what has caused the pale
cast of thought to take possession of so
many normally gay countenances within
the past few days? It is the strain of
figuring out how a man is to do business
when he can't buy revenue stamps and
when the failure to use the stamps is
construed as violation of the law whether
the government can furnish stamps or
not. The fifteen puzzle is a small matter
when compared to this cruel intlicuon.
