Not Troubled by the Surplus.

The gigantic transfer of money from
the pockets of the people to the vaults
of the U. S. Treasury, the result of the
Internal Revenue tax (Which we are now
told is to be permanently and of the
Dingley tariff bill, is very cheerfully
viewed by the men receiving it at
Washington. Secretary Gage, the gen.
tleman who committed the Mckinley
administration to an active support OF
gold, was interviewed on Friday about
the tremendous surplus, some $500. 600,
600, now in the treasury. He jacently
replied that 1.-THE surplus is causing the
department no trouble"
We should think not how about the
overtaxed people whose money is taken
from their pockets to make that sur.
plus ? With the prices for his produce
as low as they can be gotten, and his
taxes as high as they can be made, how
will these hundreds of millions resting
idle in the treasury. strike the farmer
The Cleveland patch on the trousers of
the farmer and the workmen, has been
replaced by the Mckinley patch; but
the question will soon arise whether
they will have any trousers on which
to put patch.

The War Not Over.

Montgomery, Ala, SEPT. 13.-The
Advertiser today printed the following
as portion of an interview with Gen
eral Joseph Wheeler 1t stated that the
General was in the presence of three
gentlemen, one of whom was Hon. Sam.
Blackwell, when talkiug to tie report

Il do not believe the war is over by
any means; nor does President McKin

faith that the peace commission would

Spain over the Philippines. The Span

were fought after the protocoi was sign

give up the islands"
Continuing, General Wheeler said:
'Spain will want us to give up the
Philippines, and" Qaying emphasis here)

back to duty and really expect to be

Mr.. Flood on the Stump,

A special from West Appomattoz
says: During the recess of the court,
for dinner R. A. Fulwiler, of Botetourt
a prominent Republican of the Tenth
District and chairman of the district
committee, addressed the Republicans
of Appomattox, in the interest of Col.
r. t. Hubbard. During the early part
of his speech there was very slim
crowd in attendance, but just before be
closed great many Democrats went
into the courtroom, and at the conclu
sion of his speech called Justify for Fl on.
ii. d. Flood to reply to him. This Mr.
Flood did I'M vigorous manner, answer
ing every argument of the Botetourt
gentleman, and in conclusion begged
his friends not to let their disappo1nt-
ment at his defeat for the nomination
lessen their loyalty to the party. but to
turn out OH election day and cast their
vote for Judge J. M. Quares, of
Augusta. MI. Floods speech was a
manly one and did great good to Demo-
cracy in this county.

Our New Experiments In Government.

Our New Experiments In Government.
The United States started out about
four months ago on their new and
Quixotic programme of setting the
world to rights. In that time they
have expended over $3.50, 100000 and
given the lives and blood of several
thousand American soldiers in carrying
out that programme. and they have
vanquished their enemy. 1t is the
irony of fate that they find their
Quixotic work not ended, but just be-
gun They find that they have ''liber-
ated" two peoples. in Cuba and the
Philippines, who are ready to tight
them as they have been fighting Spain
the first of these peoples having a
civilization we cannot comprehend,
and the second having no civilization
at all.
1t is said that we must hold" these
peoples and the lands they inhabit until
we have given them stable government,
and this must be done, some claim,
with view to holding them perma-
nently. This in spite of our solemn
and public asseveration that this wal
should not be characterized by terrific
rial aggrandizement. Who are we that
we should assume to give other peoples
stable and orderly governments Are
we to pursue toward the Philippine
savages the same policy we have pur-
sued towards our own. cheat them
during the fall and winter and kill
them in the spring?
What experience have we had in
governing colonies; or is it that the
American idea that man may take a
government office without one single
qualification for it, to be applied to oul
"foreign possessions ?" Those nations
who know this business and have fol
centuries had men trained to govern in
colonies, have found no profit in it.
The master colonizers of the world
the Spanish, the Dutch and the Eng.
| lish-could teach US profitable lesson
After war costing far more than the
colonies were worth, in order to hold
them, the account stands this way
Spain is stripped of all, Holland hat
parted with all except the ghost of hel
former possessions, and England has
not a colony that she would not let &C
tomorrow if its people asked for sepa-
ration.
The glamour of imperialism is win
ming we confess. and as binding as it is
winning; it is great thing to be q
great power; but if this nation goes into
the colonizing business by holding al
it has captured, the time will come
when grinding taxation, families de-
cimated by wars. and liberty lost
through a great standing army, will
cause it to curse the day it began its
Quixotic career in the closing days OF
the nineteenth century.

500 Reward 500,

The readers of this paper will be pleas
ed to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been able
to cure in all it's stages, and that is Ca
tarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only
positive cure known to the medical fra
ternity. Catarrh being constitutional
disease, requires constitutional treat
ment. Hall s Catarrh Cure is taken IN
ternally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation of the
disease. and giving the patient strength
by building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing it's work. The
propr1etors have so much faith in it's Gu
rative powers, that they offer One Hun
dred Dollars for any case that it fails to
cure. Send for list of testimonials.

How Much the Democrats Should Bear.

How Much the Democrats Should Bear
1t is no use for the Democrats to try
to shift all the sponsibility Of the late
war on to the shoulders of the Republi.
cans. We helped bring it about, at
least cur congressman did, though tie
people were opposed to it, now we
must stand up to the rack fodder OF no
fodder. But the conduct of the Wal
was solely with the Republicans. The
Democrats whilst helping to supply the
money and do the fighting could not
control the policy or the manner of
war. 1t does not lay in Republican
mouths to say you helped bring it on
and you must bear your share of
the odium." We are not responsible
for the miserable management of
many of the departments; We are not
responsible for the government paying
$50 to $500 for horses and mules that
could have been bought for $50; we are
not responsible for the purchase of
ships costing about $4,000 when built
being saddled on the government at
over 100000; we are not responsible
for our men being obliged to face an
enemy with nothing in their hands
but prehistoric guns and powder of
the kind used before the discovery of
America. I'VE are not responsible for
our soldiers being starved in the
trenches at Santiago, because the sup
plies were entrusted to a lot of Junk
heads appointed because of their poll
tical influence and pull, but who knew
nothing more, about what was needed
OF how to get it there, than a crow
does about music. We are not respon-
sible for the death by fever and suffer-
ing entailed by medical department
replete with jealousy envy, and even
malice, to say nothing of ignorance and
incompetence. None of these things
and thousands of others which occurred
can be changed to the Democrats,
though they helped bring on the war.
Still they ought to hear but little of
that censure. because the Republicans
had an overwhelming majority in both
houses and president opposed to the
war and speaker of the house firmly
set against it.
We want the Democrats to be charg-
ed with all that they did, but want the
account to stop there, and the BOOKS
balanced in just and equitable way.

WOMAN'S PETTICOATS.

The Colored Petticoats in fall fabrics show
many clever ideas in bringing effective re-
suits In low price garments. For instance, of
little less than the richness of silk are these
Petticoats of fine black satteen in neat gold
and silver strips. They are made umbrella
shape, with corded rutfie and faced with Grim
oline. A close exam nation is necessary to
tell them from silk, yet the price is only
