President McKinley's call for $1,000
more volunteers has no interest for Yer
monters. The states quota under the
first call was Gj4. A full regiment of 1850
men was sent, and is now in Chickamauga
The quota under Wednesdays call would
probably be 393, so the state has already
answered both calls and has 80 men to
snare.

The regulations of the United States
navy state that the use of foreign flag to
deceive an enemy is permissible, but that
it must be hauled down before a gun is
fired, and under no circumstances is an ac-
ton to be commenced or an engagement
fought without the display of the national
ensign. Practically the same rule is APP
piled to the use of an enemy's uniform.

The cruiser Charleston, Which is now on
lis way from san Francisco with ammuni-
ton and supplies for Admiral Dewey at
Manila, is a protected cruiser of $3.50 tons
displacement, built OF steel, and mounts
egh, guns in her main battery. She is
hardly expected to make more than l3
knots an hour with her heavy load, Her
coal bunkers are rather limited, so that she
probably will have to stop at Honolulu to
recoal. Her trip to Manila will take about
two weeks. The City of Pekin which will
follow her, is very fleet merchantmen,
capable OF being pushed Is knots or more,
so that even with the handicap she has of
starting several days after the Charleston,
there is a prospect she may overhaul her
in the race across the Pacific, and reach
Manila first. The Charleston, aside from
her supplies, will be valuable adjunct to
Dewey's squadron, coming next to the
Olympia and Baltimore in size and effective
ness

Lieutenant Rowan of the Nineteenth
infantry has returned from a perilous trip
into eastern Cuba bearing dispatches to
General Garcia, the insurgent commander.
He met General Garcia, delivered his
dispatches, crossed the island at its wild
est part and, taking boat, crossed over
to Nassau, from which point he returned
to New York. He exhibited courage, fer
tility of resource and executive ability in
its prosecution. Had he been captured he
would certainly have been shot as spy.
1t was no thanks to ser ,onal journalism,
which gave immediate information of his
landing in Cuba, that he did not fall into
the hands Of the Spanish forces.

NO THRILL OF IMMORTAL MUSIC.

1t is the desert, where virtue
trembles to tread, where hope fall
tiers, and where faith is crucifed,
the infidel dreams. To him, all
there is of heaven is bound by
this little span of life, all there is
of pleasure and love is circum-
scribed by a few feeting years
all there is of intelligence and
wisdom is the human brain; all
there is Of mystery and infnity is
fashionable by human reason, and
all there is of virtue is measured
by the realization of man to man.
To him all must end III "tongue-
less silence of the dreamless dust"
and all that lies beyond the grave
is a voiceless shore and starless
sky. To him, there are no prints
of deathless feet on it's echoless
sand, no thrill of immortal music
in it's joyless air. He has lost his
God, and like some fallen seraph
flying in rayless night, he gropes
his way on tagging pinions, search
ing for light where darkness reigns,
for life where death is king.-Bob
Taylor.

TO FIGHT IMPERIALISM.

| DtlOIt w IllId1ll
| Bryan left Savannah for his old
home in Lincoln, Nebraska, he
was interviewed by a reporter of
the Morning News, and thus ex-
pressed himself regarding the pol
icy of Imperialism:
1.-THE people of the United
States having rescued Cuba from
foreign control, may now resume
the discussion of the domestic
problems which confront this ma
ton; and to the consideration of
the new questions arising out of
the war.
Il may be i'll error, but in my
Judgment, our nation is in greater
danger just now than Cuba. Our
people defended Cuba against for
eign arms; now they must defend
themselves and their country
against foreign idea-the colo
NAL idea of European nations.
Heretofore greed has perverted
the government and used it's in
strumentalities for privata gain;
but now the very foundation
principles Of our government are
assaulted.
''The imperialistic idea is di-
rectly antagonistic to the idea and
ideals which have been cherished
by the American people since the
signing OF the declaration of indie
pendence. Our nation must give
up any intention of entering upon
a colonial policy (such as is now
pursued by European countries)
or it must abandon the doctrine
that governments derive their
just powers from the consent of
the governed.
owe may believe that govern
ments come up from the people,
or we may believe that govern
ments come down to the people
from those who possess the heav-
lest cannons and the largest
ships, but we cannot advocate
both doctrines.
"To borrow a Bible quotation,
"A house divided against itself
cannot stand;' paraphrasing Lin
coins decoration, | may add that
this nation cannot endure half
republic and half colony-half
free and half vassal. Our form
OF government, our traditions,
our present interests and our flu
ture welfare all forbid our enter
ing on career of conquest.
Jefferson has been quoted in
support of Imperialism, but our
opponents must distinguish be-
tween Imperialism and expansion;
they must also distinguish be-
tween expansion in the Western
hemisphere and an expansion
that involves us in quarrels of
Europe and the Orient. They
must still further distinguish be-
tween expansion which secures
contiguous territory for future
settlements and expansion which
secures us alien races for future
subjugation.
Jefferson favored the annexa-
ton of necessary contiguous ter
ritory on the North American
continent, but he was opposed to
wars of conquest, and expressly
condemned the acquiring of re-
mote territory"
