THE INTERIOR OFFICE.

The vacancy in the Interior office
needs to be filled with the least pos
sible delay. The absence of Mr.. Damon
leaves a Cabinet of but two men, and
the chief executive department of the
government is at stand still.
The chief functions of a Minister of
Interior at the present time are not
those of fighter, a statesman or a
politician. The duties of the Minister
of Interior are mainly to see that the
road, bridge, wharf and public build
ing program laid out by the legisla-
ture. is carried out and that the bulg
ing surplus is expended for the public
benefit instead of being allowed to
tester in the public treasury until it
breeds a money panic.
This work needs to be done uOiC.
A live, snappy, business man, reason
ably familiar with governmental affairs
and with the practical work of the
Office should be secured if possible.
A man who answers this description
is Hon. John A. McCandless, now
member Of the Senate.
The Advertiser has at times dis
agreed with Mr.. McCandless upon
various issues of the day, and, as he
is "a man who does his own thinking
ard the Advertiser proposes to con-
tinue as an independent journal, there
will probably be differences in the
future; but at the present juncture and
under existing conditions, it is sub
mitted that Mr.. McCandless will fill
the bill better than any other available
man.
As a member of the Advisory Coun-
Gil of the Provisional Government and
of the Senate, for the last seven years,
he has close knowledge of govern

THE VENEZUELA AWARD.

The nations which submit differ
ais who have to submit their disputes
to juries, suffer from rough justice.
Venezuelas dispute with Grea.
Britain on the boundary question, has
ended in the decisive victory of the
latter. On inspecting the map of the
disputed territory, which appears in
this issue, it will be seen that the ar
bitrators have unanimously given the
gold fields to the British. They have
generously given Venezuela the vast
swampy tract about the mouth of the
Batima river, and declared the Orinoco
river open to the trade of the world.
The British are satisfied, but do not
crow over the matter, because this
affair is only one of the common in
cidents in the, history of British foreign
AFFAIRS Ex-President Harrison like
any good advocate must feel like "go-
ing to the tavern and swearing at the
Judges" as he had told the Venezuelan
government that it's claim was good
one. Did the eminent counsel get his
fees in advance, or has he waited until
the case has been decided? Those
who deal with the South American
Republics usually ask for cash in ad-
vance, as the officers and crews of these
vessels of State, are in a constant
state of mutiny. The crew of the-Fe-
hoe ir;o oil
Did the ex-President get his hands in
to the cash box, or has he rendered his
services on "tick?" The amount which
rumor says he has or will receive for
his services, namely, s250,OO0, is pro-
badly far beyond the amount really
agreed upon. Rumors like to deal in
big figures. If the ex-President failed
to collect in advance, he may have
trouble in obtaining from the revolu-
tiouary government his just dues.
The Venezuelan award seems to be
an excellent illustration of the practi-
cal methods of disposing of inter
national disputes. The rights of the
parties are not of so much consequence
as a judgment which makes a fail

the gold fields to the British, which
was most sensible thing to do. Hav-

TRAMPS.

a few thoughtful and far seeing
people have formed society in the
city of New York, whose purpose is
TO induce Congress to make some pro-
vision for the soldiers who enlisted for
the Spanish war, and are now enlisted
for the Philippine war. The desire or
the society is to take steps to avoid the
uprising of a great body of tramps,
who came out Of the army after the
Civil war and infested the country.
The people were surprised by the thou
sands of able bodied men, who moved
over the country roads, begging for
food, and sleeping in barns. Their
demands for food, which were mild at
many remote districts, the women re-
moved to the towns and cities.
The origin of this army of tramps
was traced back, in large measure,
to the soldiers, who were discharged,
after the war. While the majority of
them quietly returned to theirNhomes,
and became good citizens, there was
an alarming percentage who had no
wish for hard and continuous labor.
Regular pay, though small, with abun-
dant food, and little work, and associ-
ations in camp with many depraved
men, had untitled them for the condi-
ton of laborers. So they enlisted as
tramps, and for a few years, made
rural life on the roads between the
large cities disagreeable.
Many of the legislatures OF the
States, in order to remove the nui-
sance, passed laws which author
lied the police forces to make sum-
mary arrests of persons without WISH
BILE means of support. The tramps dis
appeared and the pension bills provid-
ed for multitude of them.
The enthusiasts at the beginning of
| the Spanish war became eloquent over
the mobility" of war, and it's force in
elevating the character of men. But
these fervent orators had never been
soldiers, nor, had they asked the OPP
| inions of soldiers War" said Burke,
| "suspends the rules of moral obliga-
ton, and what is long suspended is in
danger of being totally abrogated."
If the majority of the enlisted men
were demoralized from one cause or
another, at the time they entered the
service; if they had given up the game
of life, the discipline of the army may
be an excellent substitute for their
own lack of self control. If, on the
contrary, the majority are young men

measure proposed by this society. De

Death Shot over a Rabbit.

Charlotte News.
One of our farmer friends from the
Hickory GROVE neighborhood tells 8
reporter today of a very serious shoot
ing affair that occurred near Hickory
Grove church, day or two ago. Tom
Marion and Sidney Clark, both colored,
wen: rabbit hunting. Late in the
evening, they decided to return home.
Before separating they began to divide
the results of tie days hunt. There
seems to have been an odd NUM- Der Of
rabbits killed and neither of the men
would submit to the other taking the
odd hare. Hot words followed and
very soon the men came to blows.
Marion drew his gun on Clark and
fired. Clark fell to the ground, and
Marion thinking him dead, fed to the
woods. A passerby found the wounded
man and had him taken 70 a nearby
house. Marion was arrested yesterday
just across the line in South Carolina
and is now in Jail In Yorkville. Clark
was still living yesterday, but the at
tending physician says there is little
hope for his recovery.

WORKING AND WISHING.

The boy who's always wishing
That this or that might be,
But never tries bis mettle,
Is the boy that's bound to see
His plans all come to failure,
His hopes end in defeat;
For that's what comes when wishing
And working fail to meet.
The boy who wishes this thing
Or that thing with a will,
That spurs him on to action,
And Keeps him trying still
When effort meets with a failure,
Will some day surely WIN;
For he works ont what he wishes,
And that's where ''luck" comes in +!
The 'sluck" that l belleye in
Is that which comes with work,
And no one ever finds it
Who's content to wish and shlrk.
The men the world calls "lucky"
Will tell you every one,
That success comes, not by wishing,
But by hard work bravely done.

Saved by Being Packed in Snow.

An unusual experiment was related
in the Philadelphia Record a few days
ago, telling how a man in Hartford,
Connecticut, was saved from death by
being packed in snow:
The patient was Charles F. Robert
son, of No. % Buckingham street, who
had been Ill for weeks from pneumonia.
When he was beginning to recover his
second lung became affected, and the
relapse appeared to haye a fatal ending
last Friday morning. Apparently he
had passed through all the stages OF
the disease.
His ravlngs had ceased, his tempera-
ture was 10Y Ibis pulse had begun to
weaken, his breath came in short
gasps, and every evidence of the end
was at hand. At 8 O'Clock the last
test to show life, that of the relax act
ion of the eyebali, had failed, and the
nurse Informed the doctor that the
man was practically dead. The family
took the fact for granted, and prepare
tons we're started to quickly remove
the llfeless body.
To the doctor there was one desper-
ate hope left. Placing rubber blanket
under the man he caused snow to be
brought in and made into a bed, on
which he laid the patient, stripped
naked. Not culver of an eyelid, not
single gasp, came as he was laid in
the frigid mass. More snow was
brought. 1t covered his arms, his legs
and his body Everywhere the mass
was packed tightly around him. The
order was keep him there till his tenn
perature goes down to 1O1."
For 40 minutes the man lay in the
snow with no signs of returning life.
In fact every one believed him
dead. At the end of that time the
doctor had the snow taken away, and
again tried the relax action test. As
he put his finger on the eye the lid
qulyered, and minute later the first
Pickering pulse sent a thrill through
those who were anxious1y waiting.
Then came another surprise. The
doctor, man of experience, suddenly
struck the insenslble man blow on the
face The eyes opened.
"Who am l ?" asked the physician.
"Hello, DOCTOR asked the patient.
Mr.. Robertson is still very Ill, but
the crisis is past and he is on the road
to recovery.
