TWO SUGGESTIONS.

There were two suggestions made In the
Morning News yesterday that are well
worth the careful consideration of the
people of this city. one Of them relates to
the government hospital and the other to
buildings on Bay street.
1t was suggested that the trustees Of
Savannah Hospital consider The advisable
ity of selling the present site of the hospl-
tai for winter hotel, or dwellings, and &C
quiring the government hospital, as that
institution will, in ell probability, be Of
fered for saIe within a year or eighteen
months II is a question whether the
buildings Of the government hospital are
just what are wanted Tor a city hospital
That, however, is a matter that would
have to receive a good deal Of attention
before a decision could be reached. It IS
certain that it would cost a great deal
more to maintain a city hospital in the
government buildings than It does TO man
tain the Savannah hospital.
But the government hospital buildings
would answer admirably for a factory of
some INDEPENDENTLY cotton factory.
1t must be evident that something must
be done to provide employment for the
steadily increasing population of the city
and the city cannot afford to have any
considerable number of its prominent
buildings empty. If the wholesale grocery
merchants carry out their present inten-
ton of using the warehouses of the rail-
roads as storehouses for their goods, there
will be a number Of very large and fine
l. NIT
year or two In what way could these
buildings be used to advantage? Evident
ly in only one way. namely, for manufac-
turing purposes
We must have more factories, for two
reasons: First, because we have a surplus
of labor, and, second, because in the very
near future we shan have a number of
empty buildings which can be advantage
ously used for manufacturing purposes, and
it is doubtful If there will be a demand for
them for any other purposes.
Now is the time to think about this
matter and to make plans for the condi-
lions which are almost certain to arise.
There are those who think that manufac-
turing cannot be made to pay here-that
we should give our entire attention to
commerce. We do not agree with that
view. Manufacturing can be made as sue
cessfuI here as elsewhere in the state. All
that is necessary is competent manage
ment Let manufacturing enterprises be
taken hold of In the right way, and be
handled wisely and economically, and they
will be successful 1t is true there are
some conditions here that are against
them, but there are others in their ia
vor All things considered, factories would
do we'll here 1t being pretty well under
stood that there viii be buildings suita-
bic for manufacturing purposes vacant in
the very near future, would it not be ad-
visable for our business men to get to-
gether and appoint a committee TO consid-
er the question of making a special effort
in the direction of factories?

Charged With a Bean sDoon.

1t has often been said that a man does
not stop to think when the order comes in
a battle to charge. but just ducks his
head and goes forward in a sort of wild
trance, If there may be said to be such a
thing, says the New York Times. Ger
tainly something of that sort fell upon
Private A. A. Smith, the cook of Com
pany K of the Colorado regiment in the
Philippines. He had gone out to the lines
to try to provide the men of his company
with some breakfast when the order to
charge was given. He had nothing in his
hand but large spoon, which he had
been using TO dish out the beans. but he
dashed ahead with the other men. The
element of comedy disappeared when he
found a gun beside the dead body of one
of the enemy, and appropriating it, did
good execution. But the men of his com
pany have not yet ceased to celebrate his
famous charge with the bean spoon. And
they are right, for the action of the sal
liant cook showed that ne was made of
the stuff which heroes are manufacture
ed. The war in the Far East has been
prolific in incidents which go to show tina r
the average man in this country is of
good material.

LEGISLATION THAT IS NEEDED.

The clerk of the House is getting ready
for the meeting Of the legislature, and
legislato IL Is safe to say, are preparing
bills. some Of which are of no importance
and are simply intended to give the franz
ers of them an opportunity TO get before
the public What pity It is that so many
members OF legislatures use their posi-
tons 70 advance their political fortunes
Instead Of devoting their whole time to
the interests of their constituents!
VIII not the legislature. as soon as It
meets, undertake to reform the state pen
sion business? It Is the cause Of a great
deal Of dissatisfaction. There is a wide
spread belief that a great many persons
are drawing pensions who are well able to
get along without them, and to whom It
was never intended to give state aid.
The same kind of dissatisfaction exists
in South Carolina That state began the
pension business by appropriating $4,000
for Confederate veterans and the widows
of veterans really in need of help. That
amount was found to be too small It was
therefore increased to 100000, and now
the complaint is that many of those who
ought to have share of 1t don't get II
while many not Ia need of such help are
pensioners.
If reports are 10 be credited there are
very many pensioners In this state who
are receiving the states bounty who have
much better incomes than thousands Of
those who are taxed to pay the pensions.
1t is unnecessary to discuss the question
of how so much pension money has gone
in a direction different from that intended
by the legislature that enacted the pension
law. Every member of the legislature who
has studied the subject understands the
methods that are employed to defeat the
intention of the law.
These pension abuses call for reform.
The legislature at Its last session took
hold of the subject and attempted to do
something with it, but its courage failed
before it accomplished anything. VIII ii
show the same lack of courage at the APP
preaching session? There is no doubt that
1t is the general wish that every Confed-
crate veteran who needs assistance and
every widow of a veteran who is depend
ent shall have a pension, but there is very
general objection to paying pensions to
those who are in comfortable circum-
stances. There will be no reform, how
ever, unless the legislature adopts radical
methods to secure it.

Titles md Rnnfs

An engaging manner is useful every
where, says the Youths Companion. This
axiom is amusingly illustrated by a story
which Justin Mccarthy tells. Soon after
the civil war, he says, I happened to be
standing on bridge in New York. anus
ing myself by studying the crowd, when a
shril, youthful voice accosted me with
"Cap'n, shine yer boots?"
The chance distribution of military titles
was ready and liberal at the time, when
so many soldiers were returning to civilian
life and paid no attention to the invi-
tation.
Just then a rival bootblack passed. and
imagining where the cause of my indiffer-
ence lay. he advanced, and pushing past
the unsuccessful claimant, he gave me a
military salute and appealed to ME with
the captivating words:
Brigadier-general, shine yer boots?"

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Baltimore Sun (Dem.) says: THE
tariff on Philippine and Cuban tobacco
imported into the Unitel States remains
unchanged, despite the new relations with
these countries established by the McKin-
ley administration. The reason is to be
sought, perhaps, in the fact that Ohio pro-
duces a large lot of tobacco, which would
be less in demand if Cuban tobacco were
admitted free of duty. Add TO this that Il
political campaign is 10 be fought out in
Ohio this fail, and Ohio votes are badly
wanted for the administration candidates.
Thus the economic development of our for
eign possessions is sub-ordinated to the
exigencies of our domestic politics. The
subordination of the economic interests of
the 13 colonies in 1776 to the interests of
English manufacturers and traders was
deemed by us then a good cause for re-
bellion 1t was unjust to hold back the de-
Velopment of the colonies in order to in
crease the wealth of England. Our new
subjects may, perhaps, after time, begin
20 reason in the same way"
It appears that the nomination of Nc
Lean in Ohio has not yet brought about
perfect harmony in the Democratic party.
The Cleveland Plain Dealer CDem.) does
not mince words in dealing with the mat
ter. 1t says: 1T is not Democratic NOM
nation in any way, shape or manner. It
has no claim 10 the support Of Democrats
who are true to the principles and organ
ization of their party in Ohio. The candi q
date represents nothing but his own selfish
interests, and those interests are antago-
nistic to Democratic welfare. No Demo- rat
who refuses to vote for him can be Justly
accused of boiling a Democratic nommn-
ton, for The nominee Is not emitted to con-
siderati0n as a Democrat" To judge from
this MIR. Mclean will have to make a
fighting campaign from the start.

torial campaign in Virginia is the election

THE TYRANNY OF HEUREUx.

1t is to be hoped there are better days
ahead for San Domingo. 1t Is about to
pass from the domination of the black
man to that of the white. man; and under
the new government 1t Is possible that the
country may enjoy a degree of liberty
and prosperity that it has not heretofore
known. Nominally the government is
that of a republic, but actually 1t has
been that of "a despotism; and HeureuX,
the late President, whose assassination
was the first act of the now successful
revolution, was one of the most cruel and
bloody tyrants that have cursed a coun-
try in modern days.
Heureux was mulatto. He possessed
in some degree the white mans intelli-
gence combined with the brutal part of
the negro's nature and his love for pomp
and ceremony. Being of the blood of the
two races, Heureux hated both fiercely,
and in return was hated by them. New
ertheless. through the fear of the blacks of
him, he kept himself in power. And
there was good reason to fear him. So
bloody-mlnded was he that no man against
whom he had a real or imaginary griev-
ance could live in the country. Any such
person would be prosecuted, banshed his
property confscated, or he would be shot
The prisons were always full of men by
Heureux's order and to the graveyards
he sent a rich harvest.
Not content with taking trouble as it
came" he used deliberately to make trou-
BILE. He would lay snares for suspected
enemies, and If any man fell into one of
them his liberty or his life was the for
felt. On one occasion, some years ago, he
caused the report to be circulated that
he was dead; and all of his subjects that
he could discover who did not express
grief for his alleged demise were impris-
oned,. banished or shot. The San Domin-
gans had this incident in mind recently
when the report of his assassination was
circulated and that is why there were
so many expressions of sorrow. The peo-
Pile were afraid to say anything else. They
did not know but that it would turn out
to be another ruse on the part of Heureux
to test the affection of the masses.
Some years ago Heureux got 1t into his
head that certain regiment OF his troops
was disloyal. The regiment was ordered
on dress parade, 10 Dc reviewed Dy the
chief executive. After the review Heureux
ordered the non-commssioned officers to
shoot the commissioned officers. and then
the privates to shoot the non-commission-
ed officers. Then, when the privates were
confused and without officers he ordered
another regiment to fire upon them.
Such incidents illustrate the manner of
man that Heureux was and indicate
what sort of government he gave the
country. They also bear out the state
ment. of Mr.. Grullon of the revolu-
tionary party made in New York the 9TH
er day, that the negro rule had become
intolerable. According to the revolution
lists. the black element Of the population
have reached the conclusion that their
own safety requires that white men shall
take the reins of public affairs. and hence
are ready to support Jiminez, who Is
reported to be a man of honor. Of justice
and of good business qualities.

At last something has been found which
Atlanta doesn't want, It is that new ne
gro regiment that President Mckinley has
concluded to raise for Philippine service.
Atlanta isn't afraid of yellow fever, and
doesn't mind yellow mayors, and some
other yellow things, but she draws the
line at yellow ana black regiments. Since
Atlanta does not desire the honor and
profit of being the recruiting point OF the
black regiment how would Cleveland. O.,
do as the place? Possibly the soldiers
could get some preliminary practice there
in counteracting the dynamiting and riot
ing proclivities of those newly arrived
foreigners" who are running that city.

son NJ. Levy, representing an English
