The Farce islands have been incor-

to the Danish parliament. but they re-
tain a certain degree of independence.
Their local affairs are managed by an
assembly which sits in Thorshavn and
still is called the lagthing, though it is
under the presidency of an anftman ap-
pointed by the king; and they enjoy
special exemption from conscription
and from export and import duties,
says Blackwood's Magazine.
Both sexes have an air of refinement
and dignity often seen among true
peasants, but the men are usually hand
some. They are not tall, but strong

adorned with silver buttons, black knee
breeches, felt-like gray stockings and

MIR. MKINLEY AT ATLANTA.

Mr.. McKinley's declaration in his
speech TO the Georgia Legislature that
'the time has come when in the spirit
of fraternity we should share with you
in the care of the graves Of Confederate
soldiers will come as q most welcome
Spain had done much to wipe out any
lingering remnant Of sectionalisln and
even some hostile demonstrations by
Northern citizens, and injudicious COM
ment by a member of Mr.. Mckinley's
Cabinet nave not been sufficient to re-
viye it.
All that is necessary now. or that has
been necessary for some years past, is
that the South shall be given to feel that
it is not to be made the target of partisan
and u%nfriendly legislation; that its loyal
ty to the union and its pride in a re-
united country shall be accepted
as accomplished facts: and that.
while honoring its heroic dead
it shall be permitted to go
forward with the heroic living, working
out its own problems. and sharing in the
common glory of the whole country.
The notable utterance of President
Mckinley gives reason to hope that he
understands this attitude of the South.
and that he will give small aid or COM
fort to those ill-advised persons, North
or South, who are striving to make the
ghost of s~ectionalism walk again" If
this be his meaning. although the peo-
pie of the South may differ with him on
other matters, he will find his efforts to
promote good feeling warmly seconded.
However large this country may be or
may become, it is not large enough to
shelter sectiOnalism. and if Mr.. McKin-
ley shall see tit to give it the coup de
grace. as he can do if he so desires, en-
lightened people Of every section will
applaud his action.

More or less talk is heard every year
at the bad-road season about good
roads. The difficulty appears to be that
talk is the only result. When the spring
wind and sunshine dry out the r~iyulets
of mud which pass for roads in most
parts OF the State the goOd-road agita-
ton dies out until the winter rains
come around again. 1t is undoubtedly
true that one of the sorest needs of
the State is a system of roadways that
shall be hard at all seasons. but as yet
there seems to be no sentiment to which
advocates of road building can success
fully appeal, save in three or four coun-
ties. If q sentiment fer good roads can
be worked up among the people who
use them little trouble will be encounter

LABOR OPPOSES IMPERIALISM.

At the meeting Of the American Fede-
ration of Labor in Kansas City on Wee
uesdav night the following resolution wa
adopted by a practically unanimous vote:
.Whercas. As n result of the recent
war with Spain. i new and far-reachlnS
policy. known as imperialism, or eApan
sion. is bout to thrust upo US Z larS'

Dor organ cations are always the best

they arc a recognized power II American
politics and the determined stand OF the
Federation of Labor may serve 10 give

interest &C the laborer. Thae the latter
should r1gard the former with more OF
less distrucr is generally justified by the
ATTITUDE Of the 70 'dier anl certainly by
the history Of miiitarism in other conn
tries.
The lahorer also doubtless perceives
that imperialism bids fair to open tn,
doors 10 the coOlie labor of the East, OF
which many employers in this country
will not be slow to take advantage. On
the other hand no new markets will be
opened up for American products suffi-
Gent to offset this disadvantage. The
trade of the Philippines is small and
will nave to be divided with other ma
lions under the avowed American policy.
Naturally the American laDorer does
not see where he comes in for anything
from imperialism, except higher taxes
and sharper competition.

Apart from the merits of either aspi-
rant, it will be a matter Of general re

Schley respectively should be engaging
in a fierce contest as to which is entitled

shall be created. There is no reason
to doubt that both are able and courage
Gus officers, and each has certainly
served his country faithfully. That their
merits should become a subject of news
paper squabbling and that each should
suffer diSparagcment at the hands of the
partisans of the other is neither very
seemly nor very creditable to those who
engage in it. Such spectacles so a long
way toward justifying the old method of

suits Of it have often been.
