may result in the General suing the
Archbishop for circulating the report

but what they need for the general

that standpoint. Are the Filipinos
sufficiently intelligent to know what
they need for their own good. Are
they sufficiently intelligent enough to
respect individual rights, property
rights. Have they sufficient lntelli

stated times, and manage town and

ANCIENT Romans looked upon the
goose with great reverence because
one uight it cackled when the Goths
were steathily approaching to storm
the last fort in the City of Rome.
The alarm of the goose called the Ro-
mans to arms. The Goths were driv'
en- out of the City; out Of the country
and Rome was saved by the simple
agency of the cackle of goose. The

They ran away with ammunition and
almost everything the British need

The Beers might put a worse looking
thing than q mule on their national
coat of arms. That which brings
good fortune even if it is a goase OF
mule is worthy of attention.

The mine is on the Canton road and is
known as the Clumber Hill mine. 1t

THE CHICAGO PLATFORM.
Bryan Stands by It's Principals. 4
Party Conference.

A Democratic conference has been
called under the auspices of the Demo
cratic State committee was held in To-
peka Thursday evening. Prominent
speakers, including Col. W. J. Bryan
of Nebraska; Champ Clark of Missouri;
Allen D. Myers of Ohio and Sidney
Clark Of Oklahoma were present. More
than thousand persons were invited.
The meeting was in the nature Of a con,
ference Of Democratic leaders, the pol
icy of the party in the campaign OF
1899 being touched on.
Mr.. Bryan himself was given the
most prominent place, his subject be-
ing Democracy"
Mr.. Bryan stood out sQuarely for the
Chicago platform, and said that there
had been no retreat from the positions
taken IN 1896.
'We are only holding our own," he
declared, but we are gaining back those
Democrats who left US without fully
understanding the nature of the strug
gle.
''Soue inc, we hear pleas for har-
mony from those who opp, sed the par
ty in 1885,, continued Mr.. Bryan,
but harmony. Gnstead Of being a
thing hoped for, is at least, thing
realized; not pretended harmony be-
tween those entertaining antag,nistic
principles, but an actual harmony be-
tween those who are united in a com
mon purpose against common enemy.
The Democratic party was never uore
harmonious, and its harmony can only
be disturbed by admitting within the
fold those who are at variance with its
principles and aspirations.
The Democratic platform Of 1900
will be written by those who stood upon
the platform o. 1896, not By those who
tried to overthrow the Democratic par
ty in that campaign.
Mr.. BRYAN declared that events have
been vindicating the policies proposed
by the Democratic party in 1896.
He then passed on to the subject of
trusts and characterized them as the
products of Republican methods.
Mr.. Bryan closed with denunciation
Of militarism and what he termed the
tendency of the present administration
toward Imperialism.
Champ Clark of Bowling Green, Mo,
had for his subject Prosperity, past,
present and future.
Governor Stone Of Missouri spoke on
the future of the Democratic party.
He was followed by Allen o. Myers
of Columbus, o., whose toast was ''The
East and the West.
The toast responded to by Sidney
Clark was Oklahoma, the next star in

the statement that children and cd
people especially suffer from a lack OF
lime in the system. Persons who
habitually drink soft water, while they
may enjoy immunity from certain Of
the ills of life, expose themselves to
other perhaps quite as much to be
avoided. Hard water helps the teeth
and the bones by furnishing lime,
which is necessary to health, growth
and development. Old persons who
drink but little lose their teeth more
quickly than those who take reason

The School Charts

The school chart business seams to
be dividing the honors with the pepi
tentiary investigation. Assistant At
torney-General Gunter has had foi
sometime under advisement the matter
of paying for these charts. The ques
tlon submitted 20 him is whether trus-
rees are permitted legally to ray for the
charts by warrants on the coming year $
school fund. This has been douc in a
number Of instances. Mr. Gunter had
not written ont his decision bat he sat,
that he would hold that trustees coulo
not do so. ifhe question whether the.
had right to expeud school money f..
such a purpose has not bee n submit
ted to him. His ruling on the fir |
point will 60 long way in stoppln-

districts have any money TO spare f"t
the purpose. 1t will be hard on the
chart men, even if they wait until next
years money is available, as conditions
will be about the same then as they
are nOW-nC money 10 SpenQ upOO Sucn
luxuries. Trustees will have to max,
some arrangements about them or the
chart company will have to take back
their goods as second hand. We hop
this chart business will make the school
authorities more careful in future abon5
making illegal contracts. The char
people sold their charts in good faith,
and it is certainly hard on them to be
knocked out in this way. If they lad
been told in the beginning that their
goods were too high, instead Of being
encouraged as they were in many in
stances by the school authorities to sell
them on time the case would be differ
ent.

apolis News as an all-round farmer who
farms all the year round. To work his
farms, which average from 600 10 1900
acres, requires 40 employees, 700

School Books.

In connection with Superintendent
McMahan statement thatit is claimed
that many children are prevented from
attending school because Of the inabili-
ty Of their parents to provide them with
the necessary books and that some
even say that the schools are beyond
the reach of the poorer classes unless
the State supplies text books to the
children this article from the Nash
vile American will be found of interest:
The table following will show the
difference between the prices Of school
books in Tennessee aud Indiana. The
Indiana law was passed ten years ago
and any attempt to rescind it would not
find corporals guard in the State.
The table IS:
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1899-04-05

We called attention to the fact the
other day that under the Indiana law
every school book concern Of import.
ance in the country WAS competing for
the State contract. This knocks into
cooked hat the argument that cheap
and inferior books would be furnished
the Tennessee children if we had such
law as prevails IN Indiana.
In commenting OF the above the
Columbia State says it does not know
the prices paid for school books in
South Carolina but they are dobutless
higher than those paid in Indiana. The
State is right The price of school
books in South Carolina are higher than
they are in Indiana, which should not
be the case There is no reason why
South Carolina should not get school
books as cheap as Indiana or any other
State.
The State reports Superintendent
McMahan as saying that the sums ex-
pended for the luxury of school charts
have reached the astounding total Of
$50, 200 in a State where the heaviest
taxation bearable is insufficient to keep
the schools open six months in the
year. 1t passes understanding how
this folly could have been permitted by
those who have been charged with the
economical ana effective management
of our public school system.
We agree with The State that Mr.
McMahan did not take charge Of the
Office of superintendent Of education a
day too soon His statement shows
that he appreciates the obligations of
his position AMI the necessity Tor radi-
cal reforms in the system, and We hope
that he will continue unfinchingly IL
the path he has entered. This State,
as State, cannot give more money to
its public schools than it does now,
but the effectiveness Of what it does
give can be greatly increased BY wise
administration. This the people now
hope for.

New Electric Lamp.

An inventor has produced an electric
cane lamp. The handle of the cane
contains an incandescent lamp, the two
poles of which are connected with the
plates of a battery. Below this is a
small chamber to carry the battery
fluid. When it is desired to use the
lamp the cap is taken off and the cane
inclined, so that the liquid it contains
comes in contact with the electrodes.
A current is thus produced that will,
it is asserted, keep the light going for
an hour.
