REPUBLICAN CHAIRMAN HANNA.
There is no doubt that the state
elections this fall will be taken as an
index Of the sentiment of the Ameri-
can people upon the issues of the ap-
proaching national campaign. 1t is,
therefore, important that every Re-
publican vote shall be cast in Novem-
ber Tor the candidates on the Republi-
can state tickets in Ohio, Pennsylva-
MIA, Kentucky. Iowa and other states
In which there are local contests for
important Offices. All our Republican
majorities this year should be as large
as possible to emphasize the popular
feeling. The industrial conditions and
the Philippine war will prove factors
in the coming campaign. The Philip
pine war has been made an issue by
the Democratic party, but we have
nothing to fear / would as lief have
so-called anti-expansion made an is
sue as / would have the silver Ques-
tion, for silver is an old man Of the
sea. : - aAs sses1 al Ssrr sste.ssEt.e-

SECRETARY OF NAVY LONG.
"It is the Indifferent and stay-at-home
voter that the party managers should
direct their attention to this fall. These
are the men who are so preoccupied
with their business interests that they
frequently do not appreciate the i'm
portance of political campaign until
after the election returns are announc-
ed. Then. if the result is not as they
desired. they feel the sting of remorse
and realize the result of their own neg
ligence. This fall there is more than
usual danger to the Republican party
from the Indifferent citizen. Our pros
porous conditions naturally divert the
minds of many from matters Of public
moment. The party workers should
single out these voters and at the
proper time see that they go to the
polls. II they get them there, we need
have no fear of them voting the Demo-
cratic ticket The thing to do is to get
them there-the Intelligence of the
voter will do the rest. ."-SecTetary
Long, in a recent interview.
Republican news item. [volume] (Laport, Pa.) 1896-19??, 1899-10-26

"Are the people so short sighted
that they forget the miseries of six
years ago? Do they forget the bread
riots, the squalid want even of those
able and anxious to work? We cannot
by any laws bring happiness and pros
perity to every one, but we can do
what the Republican party has done;
that is, by wise legislation and wise
administration secure the chance for
the bulk Of our people to live out their
lives and do their work with the odds
as much as possible in their favor.
This is national contest. We ap-
peal not merely to party, but beyond
party; we appeal to all good citizens,
to all patriotic Americans, to stand with
us as we uphold the financial integrity
and the conditions which stand for ma
terial prosperity at home, as we up
hold the honor of the flag and the in
terests of the nation broad"-Gover-
nor Roosevelt, in his recent Akron, O.,

SOUTH CAROLINA TEA.

From report to the secretary Of axri.
culture by Charles u. Shepard, Who IS in
charge Of the experimental tea garden at
Summerville, s. CT
school for the education of negro
children in tea picking has been es-
tablished. ...-..-
The fact that the tea plants lived
through last winter when the most in
tensely cold weather in the history Of
the section was experienced is q guar.
antee that the weather conditions will
prove satisfactory.
There are now about SO acres of land
under tea cultivation and 5000 pounds
were sold last year at profit OF %
per cent. 1t is estimated that when all
the plants now growing arrive at ma
turity they will yield 10000 pounds an
nually.
The quality of the tea has proved
satisfactory. Of the black tea he says:
1T has. distinctly characteristic
favor, and like some of the choicer
oriental teas, its liquor has more
strength than its color indicates" The
green tea, he says, has attracted keen
interest in the trade and among con-
sumers, and he adds that oriental teas
can hardly furnish the like in this
country q.

of wages goes into effect in the strue-

company this morning The reduction
ranges between 20 and 80 per cent The
straighteners of the large beams viii
have their wages cut to about three
dollars, while the hoIdups will be paid
on a scale that will average them about
$3.50 per day The workmen declare
that straighteners have been making an
average of SIS Or SIG day, and that
the holdups averaged from six to seven
dollars for their work. They claim that
they were not overpaid. even at that
rate, for the beams are very heavy and
the work is so severe on the men that
they can endure it for only few years
A general strike of the straighteners
and holdups is looked for.

capitalists wishes to buy with the idea
OF using it as a Hebrew colony, has
had a stormy history. 1t is about 14s
miles long and 3S miles wide. It has
belonged successfully to the Persians,

Richard |. of England. Later it passed
into the hands of the Turks, passing
back into English control in 1873. In

Britain. The present population of the
island is 100000.
