The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1898-01-25

That anti-Dreyfus uproar in Paris on
Sunday, reported in our dispatches of yes
terday, must have been one of the most
laughable, ridiculous affairs imaginable.
The account says, in part: "Comte de
Bernis is "a retired cavalry officer and has
the physique of a bull fighter. N.
Juares threw a knotted handkerchief after
him. Comte de Bernis seemed paralyzed."
What funny, funny cavalry officers they
must have in France, and what queer con-
ceptions of bun fighters! If a knotted
handkerchief was sufficient to paralyze
the brave Bernis, what would have hap
pened if someone had thrown a cold po-
tato after him?

one of the most outra geous demonstra-
tons Of yellow Journalism" that can be
conceived Of was that perpetrated by the
New York Journal of Sunday, with rela-
ton to the case of Capt. o. NJ. Carter,
now in progress before a court-martial in
this city. An inspid but viciously con-
celved fake" article purporting to deal
with the case is illustrated with surdry
pictures, all, save one, as rank fakes"
as the article. and the whole is capped
with headlines suggestive of the highest
crimes and most despicable conduct. All
of this is spread out on full front page,
which is made glowing with red ink. The
whole article, conception and execution,
is a monstrous preversion Of the profess
sion Of journalism. 1t may be said to cap
the climax of that class Of newspaper
work which has brought New York jour
nalism into disreDute and resulted in the
preparation of a bin at Albany for the
suppression of indecent scurrillous, con-
terminating, vicious newspapers. No man
Is safe from such journalism. II is a dis
grace to the country and menace to So
ciety. 1t is on a par with certain Euro
pean journalism, which win hound a man
10 his death and feed upon his cadaver.
Luckily, the case of Capt. Carter is in
the hands of a court composed of high
minded, honorable gentlemen whom yell
low journalism and red-colored pictures
cannot prejudice as might be the case
were it before a New York petit jury.
Luckily, also, Capt. Carter cares nothing
for the opinion of the the ignorance and
depravity of the slums and the cutters, TO
which the Journal caters. No honorable,
intelligent person would for an instant
permit his mind TO be swerved a hairs
breadth by the Journals story and pic
lures.

There is a story in every song Eugene
Wares Song of the Washerwoman," is
no exception. Had it not been for four
lines in that charming song Mr.. Ware in
all probability would now be serving the
commonwealth in which he is such a
popular and distinguished citizen in the
Senate of the United States.
It's a song I do not sing,
For 1 don't believe a thing
OF the stories that are told
OF the miracles of old.
The four lines above quoted and taken
from THE Washerwoman Song" cost Mr..
Ware the nomination for Congress, when
a nomination was equivalent to an cleo
ton recalls the Kansas City Star. Had
he been nominated and elected there is
scarcely doubt that he would have been
selected to succeed Senator Plumb or
nominated in the caucus that made I.u-
clan Baker United States senator.
Thirteen years ago Mr. Ware was a
candidate for the Congressional nomina-
ton against Farmer" E. H. Funston.
He had enough delegates to nominate
him, but when the convention was held a
large delegation arrived in charge of a
preacher named McDermond The mem
bers of this delegation were his friends.

preacher-and that was the preacher

Noticed them to follow him in the conven-

Shortly before the convention met Mr..
Ware heard that the Rev. Mr. McDer-
mond was unfriendly TO him, and he i'm
mediately went to his room to inquire the
reason why.

preacher THE why of it is that you

The preacher then called his attenti IN

BacOn's FRir Proposition.
From Louisville Courier-Journal (Dem.

The Bacon amendment TO the Hawaiian

is certainly very fair one, or at least
one which the annexationists ought to be
willing to accept Surely the United States
do not wish to annex an unwilling people.
AnneXationists have held out the idea that
the people OF the islands are anxious to
come in. The amendment excludes the
Chinese and japanese from voting, AS to
the Chinese, they are not admitted 10

japanese, the question is still an open one.
The Bacon amendment is, therefore, some
what fairer for the annexationists than
they have right to demand, but let it go
at that. The vote would show whether
excluding two of the larger class of resi-
dents, the people of Hawaii wish TO be an

ent voters Of Hawaii would not be fair. be-
cause under the constitution and laws Of

Why ston at seedf
From the Boston Globe Qnd).

The main objection to the appropriation
by congress of $13O. 900 for the distribution
of seed must rest upon the ground of inc
quality. Mr.. Fitzgerald of Boston pro-
posed broadening of the scope of the
distribution by adding fshhooks and bait
for the fishermen of his district, but this
would not go far enough. The average
man does not wish 10 be left out. Why
should not the government issue pens and

Some Of the constituents Of Senator Lind
say OF Kentucky, who is an anti-free sill
verite. asked him the other day why he
voted in favor of the Teller-Stanley Mat
thews resolution when it was before the
Senate the other day. The senator replied
that he did it because there was nothing 10
be gained by delaying action on the promo
sition, while il 1t were combatted there
would result a revival of the agitation NJ
the silver question, to the detriment of
the business interests of the country. The
adoption of the resolution, the senator
says, will not advance the free coinage
of silver in the slightest degree, while its
extended discussion might have had a dis
turbing effect upon business" The best
thing therefore, he thought, was to dis
pose Of Il in the quickest way possible.

1t is to be hoped that the correspondents
Of the foreign newspapers telegraphed to
Europe information of the thrill OF excite
ment and determination which ran
through the country at the bare rumor
that Consul General Lee had been assas-
snated Information of that sort would
probably have some effect in keeping the
Spaniards in Cuba coo,-headed. If an
attack we're made upon Lee. the President
would probably be powerless TO prevent a
spontaneous outbreak in all sections of
this country.

been introduced in the aforementioned cit
les prohibiting conductors of street cars
from taking fares from passengers who
are not provided with seats, and it is I'M
derstood that bill of similar import will
be introduced in the New York legislature.
One argument against the proposition
which is being brought forward in Chi
cago is that so many people ride BICYCLES
in summer that the business of the street
railway companies is considerably hurt
and that The only way the companies can
reeoup themselves is from the heavy
travel in the winter, and that If they were
compelled to provide themselves WITH
rolling stock enough TO give all passengers
seats. they would lose money all the wear
