a dispatch from Winnipeg states that
the Northern Pacific, through solicitors
there. is applying for a charter extension
of the Portage la Prairie branch to run
northwesterly for a couple of hundred
miles. An informal application has also
been made to the government for the us
ual statutory aid. II is thought that the
company is heading for the fertile Sas-
katchewan valley, which will ultimately
be the center of agricultural population in
the Canadian Northwest.

A COMPROMISE Agreement.

A decree has been entered in
the Chancery Court at Columbia,
also one in the Federal Court at
Nashville, by virtue of which the
title to the Whitthorne property on
the corner of West Seventh and
High streets becomes settled. Mrs.
w. j. Whitthorne becomes the own
err of corner lot out of the property,
49, feet on 7th by 100 feet on High
streets. The Second National Bank
gets perfect title to the balance of
the property, which consists of lot
having a frontage of rs feet on High
street, and running back 1877 feet to
Frierson, and also the lot on the
other corner of the property, 'front.'
ing S31a feet on West Seventh street,
and running north with Frierson
street 100 feet. Mrs. Whitthorne,
we understand, will improve her lot
the other two will be sold by the
Receiver at public sale for cash, on
the 9th of May. These are exceed
ingly choice lots, and will doubtless
bring a good price. Mr.. Clark, Re-
ceiver, will have charge of the sale

DIR. BRoUGHTON, pastor of the
Baptist Tabernacle in Atlanta, (the
largest church of that denomination
in the South,) from his pulpit de-
nounced lynching and lynchers, and
in consequence few nights there
after the doors of the tabernacle
were broken in, the new carpets torn
up, paint smeared over the wall sand
pews, and the sacred edifice other
wise desecrated. That shows the
character of these self-appointed
defenders of our Southern homes.
Not only are they totally lacking in
mercy for fellow being, but they
are as utterly without respect for
the counsel or advice of man of
God, or reverence for a sacred edi-
fee.

The Trials of Childhood.

From the cradle to the grave, we
all have our troubles, our ups and
downs. A boy is simply obliged to
go barefooted in the summer, and
then comes stumped toes and stone
bruises. And who can slide down
cellar doors and climb trees, and not
tear their pants occasionally!
Not very long ago, in this city,
good mother, who has a house full
of children to look after, put a new
pair OF pants upon one of her boys
and said, NOW if you go right out
and snag or tear these as you usually
do, [ will whip you sure;" and with
that she kissed him and he started
for days fun. But he had not
been long at play before an accident
over took him; just how, we are not
advised; but his younger sister
found him seated on the ground, and
the following colloquy took place:
Whats the matter George?"
I've tore my new pants"
"Well, Mama I'll fix en-"
mo, she won't; don't you tell
her.
"Why?"
cause she said she'd whip me
sure"
did she say it with her meaning
look?"
Eyes she did; don't you tell her.
Say, can't you sew!
"Yes, I'll fix en-"
The scene changes from the yard
to an unfrequented room in the
house. George is stretched tight
across an armless chair, his feet
touching the floor on one side, his
hands on the other, and his little
sister is standing over him with a
large needle and long white thread,
and she begins to repair the dam
ages.
"Outch!" exclaims George, as the
needle pricks him. "Gollyl don't
sew so deep" Keep STILL" says
the little seamstress, as she makes
another pass at the seat of his pants.
Here, quit, I'll be-John- Brown if
can stand this"
"Be still, won't do it any more"
THE mischief you won't. Am 1
bleedin'? Just tie the ends togeth-
err"
That night the mother pulls the
long irregular stitches of white
threads from Georges new black
pants, and mends the hole anew,
and the next day George and his
little sister are seen consulting and
examining where the hole was, and
admiring the work she had done,
but never a question is asked or ex-
PLANTATION ventured, and the trouble
passes away like vapors of the night
before the rising ann

IN the raid upon the Bethel
House last Saturday night, the off,
GERS of the law had the indiscretion
to pounce upon one of the HERALD's
friends (quondam friends) and ad-
vertisers, while he was engaged in
the festive and fascinating game Of
draw poker. We can only eXclaim,
from the depths of our aching heart,
"true, tits pity; and pity it's, tits
true" Our quondam friend and
former advertiser, because he was a
friend and advertiser, thought the
HERALD ought to shield him from
public talk and possible damage to
his business, to say nothing of his
church relations, by Withholding
any mention whatever of the raid !;
and 80 emphasize his argument he
ordered his advertisement left out
of the HERALD, and his paper dis.
continued. Twas ever thus! Try
ever so hard, the HERALD cannot
stand in with the gamblers. There
seems natural antipathy between
the two. When in their repentant
moods they are practicing reform, r."
they become our staunchest friends !;
but when they fall from grace, land
to err is human, don't you know
they forthwith drop the HERALD
and begin to anathermatize its edi-
tor. We are sorry; doubly sorry.
Sorry that our friend will permit
himself to yield to the weakness of
these gambling spells; sorry, when
he does, that he will stop reading
the HERALD, for he is the very class
who needs most the good advice the
HERALD sometimes contains. How
ever, it is his privilege to do as he
pleases, and we cheerfully accord
him that right. We hope he will
accord to us the same right; and If
he does not, we shall proceed to
exercise it, whether or no. The
HERALD's policy has been, is, and
shall continue to be, to oppose all
such immoral practices as gambling.
We will continue in the future as in
the past to report all raids, whether
it be of negro crap games or Bethel
House poker games. They all look
alike to us. We have no enemies to
punish, no friends to shield in this
matter. We are running a news
paper, and propose to give the news
fairly and impartially, without fear
or favor. If the kid glove gentry of
the poker table can find a paper in
Columbia that will pander to their
interests and sympathize with them
in their troubles, it is but natural
that they should stick to it. The
HERALD is not yet reduced to the
necessity of such a course; and for
the present, at least, we prefer to
make less money and be classed as
we are, the constant aud consistent
champion Of good morals.

BISHOP HENRY M. TURNER, (col.)
the leading figure in the African M.
f. Church, South, in a sermon at
Atlanta last Sunday, said that slav-
cry afforded the negro better protec-
ton than he enjoys under present
conditions. He again expressed the
belief that the race question would
never be settled "until the negro
obeyed Gods manifest will and re-
turned to Africa"

SIT may be noted that the very
same people in the United States,
who little over a year ago were
loudest in their demands that we
should recognize the mythical gov
eminent of the Cubans, are now de-
handing that we shall recognize
the mythical government of the
Filipinos. "-Courier-J Journal.
And why not? 1t strikes us that
these Every same people" are very
consistent. And further, that these
very same people were in the ma
jority then, as they are now. And
if the Administration acoeded to
their wishes then, why not now?
The Filipino government is little il
any less mythical" than was the
government of Cuba; and the
Filipinos have the same right to be
free that the Cubans had.

Seer ETARY OF STATE HAY has
paid to M. Jules Cambon, the French
Ambassador acting as SPANS repre-

the cession of the Philippines. Such
stupendous foolishness as that even,
could be forgotten, if it would only
stop there; but to think that that
blunder shall entail upon this coun-
try the expenditure of untold mill
lions more, is what makes the people
groan.

THE College of Bishops of the
Methodist Church, South, is in ses-
sion in Nashville, and it is supposed
that some action will be taken by
them looking to the settlement OF
that ugly Publishing House Claim
scandal. The Bishops we hope will
not misconstrue the recent silence
of the press and people. They are
silent now simply because they have
had their say, and are waiting for
this College of Bishops to act. II
some action is not taken, and if
that action be not the right action,
the annual conferences will be heard
from again in the fall. There is but
one way to settle this question, and
that is the honorable and honest
way; and the honorable and honest
way is to pay back the money OBJ
tanned under false representations.

STREET sPRINKLING.

Columbia has grown from town
into city, with such silent, meas
ured tread, that the people thereof
have failed to realize the change.
People are quick to see the spread
Of town; but Columbia has thick.
ened, rather than spread, and that
Is not 80 quickly noticed. The city
Is MT so much larger than it was,
but there are vastly more people
here. A few years ago everybody
knew everybody. Now you do net
know by name and sight, much less
to have a speaking acquaintance
with, half the people you meet.
Aud the volume of business has in
creased evenmore than the popula-
ton. And with this increase of
population and of business, there
! has been great increase of travel
over the streets; and that increase
of travel has raised an almost in
tOlerable dust; and that brings us to
the point we wish to make, which is
this:
Our city fathers should realize
these changed conditions and pre-
pare to meet them by a general
system of street sprinkling; the eX-
pense to be borne not by private
subscription, but by taxation.
Street sprinkling is not for the
especial comfort of those who live
on certain street; but for the COM
fort and pleasure of those whose
business or pleasure compels them
to frequently pass that way. In a
city the size of Columbia, where the
streets dry as quickly as they do
here, street sprinkling is as proper
and necessary as good streets them
selves, or as pavements. 1t is
necessary to the comfort, conven-
fence and health of the public at
large.
One "said-to-be" difficulty in the
way is, that if the city sprinkles on
one street, everybody will want
their street sprinkled. But that
ought not to be any difficulty at all
The city fathers ought to have the
courage to- sprinkle where the pub
lie comfort demands it, and to ignore
the selfish demands of private in
: dividuals.
The budgets having already been
made for this year, it may be too
late to obtain any relief from the
dust for this summer, but general
. system OF street sprinkling ought to
be included in the budget for next
year, and, in order that the people
may express themselves, the ques-
, ton should be made an issue in the
z campaign next fall, and aldermen
. favorable to it selected to carry out
. the peoples wishes.
3 The HERALD suggests as proper
route for the sprinklers, the follow.
ing: Sixth street from Embargo tc
| Garden; Seventh street from EN-
. barge to West End; Eighth street
a from South Main to High; Main
S from Sixth to Eleventh; Garder
street from Fourth to Eleventh
, High street from Sixth to Eleventh
{ and the Public Square. This woulc
cover those parts of these mair
!, thoroughfares where the public al
8 large are forced to travel, and ado
] greatly to the pleasure, comfort anc
a health of all those who live in o.
9 visit Columbia.
4 The HERALD intends to keep thi
D question before the public mind, by
s occasional mention, so as to hav,
? the people instruct their aldermen
