THE SOUTH WILL
 GROW AND BLOOM Under the Republican Policy of
 ColoniaIism, THINKS COL. YOUNGBL0OO
He Believes That Alabama Particularly Will Reap Great Benefits from Nec- essary Extension of Trade Oppor-
 tunities in Cuba and Philippines.

Washington, March 18.-(Special )-Colon- el William Youngblood, auditor of the treasury for the interior department, who for sixteen years has been the republican national executive committeeman for Ala bama, as well as a prominent man in the national councils of the republican party, is ardently confident that the policy of the administration with regard to affairs in our new territorial acquisitions is destined to brng good results for the entre south.
 Alabama particularly he believes will reap great benefits from the necessary extension of trade opportunities which will be in- cidental of the governmental relations with the West Indies and the Philippine arch ipelago.
 "Alabama," he said, 'is already breaking the record for any southern state in the matter of exporting coal, iron and cotton As with Alabama, it will be with Ten nessee, Georgia, the Carolinas and every other part of our southern states whose resources are unequalled anywhere in the world Republican as I am, 1t has been a source of peculiar qualification to me to ob- serve the liberal and progressive conduct of Alabama s two democratic senators. Every informed patriotic citizen knows what 6 true, thorough American Senator Morgan is, and I don't think his colleague, Senator Pettus, is behind him in wise apprecla- ton of the benefits that may be ours from the adoption of liberal foreign policy.
 Their votes and action in the Spanish American war, the disposal of the ratifica- ton of the peace treaty, to say nothing of the approval of the people of Alabama without regard to party, and believe they have taken such Q position as meets the approbation of business interests every where in the south. The south is waking up. She has proved her loyal patriots with her Lees, Wheelers, Buffers, Hobsons and Bagleys in battle and with the assuring outlook for business expansion that con- fronts us I believe she will wonderfully participate in contribution to the ever growing volume of the export trade of tho United States.
 "The people of the cotton belt of the south largely favor expansion, as well as the building of the Nicaragua canal They see in these 8 large increased dem2nd for our timber in the gulf states, and the con- sumption of raw and manufactured cotton. Our cotton production greatly exceeds the present amounts, hence and cent cotton: A greater demand and consumption will give us better prices and then our people from poverty will grow in wealth and nap piness."

ther and the brute whose name she bears, was devoted entirely to religious things.
 Al good mother had attended to her edu- cation and had dreamed, perhaps, that the life of her daughter might be free of the sorrows that had blighted her own exist ence If suitable husband had been found for tho young princess this dream might have been realized. What she needed was the hand of iron encased in the velvet glove and when, instead she found a hand that was more shaky then firm, she forgot the teachings of her youth and became the "madcap princess" who has shocked not over censorious Europe.

even when the princess returned to the home of her youth with her face and shoulders cut and bruised from the horse- whip that had been wielded by her hus- band her father would not consent to separation. Reasons of state'' prevented.
 Then began the actual tragedy of her life. Before that she had suffered, now she would sin. Her husband had laughed her appeals for divorce to scorn. Perhaps, she thought, she might drive him to grant her the much coveted release. When she called him "son of pic-sticker," in reflection up- on his descent from Hungarian cattle deal CT, he simply thrashed her once more, an incident that had occurred too often to have much effect upon her.

 Since that time gossip has been busy with the affairs of the princess. Dame Rumor has had her variously situated She has been in an insane asylum and she has been buying jewelry and running up bills with sufficient rapidity to threaten the financial standing of the Belgian treasury. When Princess Louise was simply running over Europe with her husbands adjutant gossip said that she was bad. Now they say that she is mad, but, bad or mad, it is not difti- cult to see what made her so.

orally canvassed. Those persons who are fatuous enough to believe that such an amalgamation is possible are given notice by MT. Bryan that it cannot be accomplish ed without the acceptance of the Chicago platform.
 The Democratic club of New York took a very active part in the last congressional election and the gubernatorial election of that state as representative of the de- mocracy, and 1t was whispered about that this club was to be an engine in the con- trol of MT. Croker by which the opposing factions of the democracy were to be brought together. Tammany was too local in its character-as well as too bad in repu- tation-to be used for this purpose, but through the reputation of the old Demo- cratic club Croker was to make his entry into national politics. The first step to- ward the grand scheme of getting the gold democrats and the silver democrats togeth- CT was to invite a large number of promi- nent democrats of the Chicago platform faith in various parts of the country to honorary membership in the club. Some of the most prominent and active of the Chi cago platform democrats of the south and west were thus enrolled in its membership.
 Then. after MT. Belmont was elected president of the club, letter was sent to some of the leading democrats of the coun- try and certain newspapers to be published, announcing that in view of the fact that MT. Belmont and considerable number Of the most influential element of the club had bolted the democratic ticket in '96, MT.

HIS DAUGHTER DISINHERITED
WILL OF J. N. WILLIAMS OF
OAKLAND.
He Says His Daughter, Mrs. Nus
baum Of Sacramento, Neg
1ected Him.

| A recent issue of the Oakland 'Tri-
bune'' published the will of ]. N.
| Williams of Claremont, father of Mrs.
Jane Nusbaum of Sacramento, in which
the latter is cut off from any portion
of his estate.
The instrument is dated September1 1,
1897. The bulk of the estate is left to
| his friend Mary E. Jones, who took
care of him during his declining days.
His daughters are cut off without any
| to be that he was deserted in his old
age by his relatives and left to the
care of strangers The exact value
] of the estate is unknown, but is said to
| be considerable.
(, The following excerpts from the will
tell the story Of the testator's last days
and separation from his family:
MY only children now living are Lu-
cretia Jane Nusbaum of Sacramento,
Cal, and Malinda Maria Grey Of Stock
ton, Cal, and Clarence D. Vincent OF
Oakland is my only grandson living,
and I have no granddaughters. My
| said daughters and grandson are all in
good circumstances and I do not leave
| any portion of my estate to them, or
either Of them, for the reason that dur
| ing my long illness they have cruelty
neglected me, while the said Mary E.
Jones during my said illness has taken
care of me and waited upon me, and
has tenderly and kindly nursed me as
a sister or daughter could have done.
Much of the time during the past
year I have been very ill and feeble,
and at times scarcely able Ito help my
| self, and during all of said time, both
night and day, the said Mrs. Jones has
given me her constant care and atten-
| tion. l attribute the fact that I have
survived so long and my Improvement
| in health largely to her nursing and
care of me, and during all Of said time
my daughters and grandson have re-
fused even to call upon me when l
have begged and urged them to do SO,
or to supply my wants when they knew
| l had no means except what was fur
| nished by Mrs. Jones.
81 have heretofore assisted my daugh-
| ters and my grandson, and under the
| belief that could only survive a short
time conveyed to my grandson all Of
my estate, consisting of about $4,000
worth of property, and after my restor-
ation to health he declined to reconvey
! the same to me, and in order to recover
small portion thereof I was compelled
| to employ attorneys to bring suit
| against him, and then in order to set
| tie the matter during my lifetime I
consented to compromise, which gave
| me but small portion of my estate,
which should in justice go to the said
Mrs. Jones, and it is my will and wish
that it should go to her.
Lest it should be claimed that undue
or improper influence induced me to
leave my property to the said Mrs.
Jones. / hereby repeat that I have
made this will and the provision in
behalf of Mrs. Jones of my own voli-
ton, uninfiuenced by any person Or
persons and without the knowledge Of
the said Mrs. Jones'"
