HENpER SOY oF IOWA.

1t looks as if David B. Henderson Of
Iowa would be the speaker Of the House.
He says that he has a sufficient number
of votes pledged to support him to give
him the caucus nomination. and there are
reasons for thinking that he isn't bluflng.
Mr.. Sherman, of New York. says that he
Is still in the race but It isn't a matter
of much Consequence under the circum-
stances whether he Is or not. He might
as well be there as elsewhere.
Mr.. Henderson says that he has won in
the contest without having to make a
single pledge-that he is free to make
up the committees as his judgement die
tates. That ought to be gratifying to
all who are interested in good government.
If Mr. Henderson is the right sort of man.
and he probably is, from the fact that
ne is rather popular with the Democrats.
he won't make any man chairman Of
committee who has the reputation of get
ting his hands into the treasury when
ever there is an opportunity to do So
1t is safe to say that Mr.. Henderson will
not rule the House in the dlctatorial man
ner in which Mr.. Reed ruled it, He ia
vors Reeds rules and methods, but he IS
lacking in the Czar-like qualities which
distinguished Mr.. Reed. But he will be
closer 10 the President than Mr. Reed was
In fact, it is said that he can be depended
upon to support the administration
policies.
1t is true he didn't favor paying $4,000
f-4.- ~ III
that he questioned the ACCESSIBILITY of de-
handing those islands from Spain It Is
fact that he was against a regular army
Of 100000 men, because he was against
forcing military government on the
F'ilipinos 1t is supposed. however. that
he believes in prosecuting the war in the
Philippines until the fusurrection is
quelled but Il is not known what kind of
a government he favors for the islands
Mr.. Henderson believes in civil service
reform-at least he is on record as favor
ing it, 1t is probable, however, that for
the benefit of his party friends he wouldn't
object to notifications of the civil service
rules now and then. That he Is a gold
standard man there Is no doubt He is
a member of the caucus committee of the
Republicans of the House which recently
met at Atlantic City TO map out currency
reform legislation for the present congress.
The House will not have occasion 10
complain of arbitrary acts while he is
speaker as frequently as it did when Mr.
Reed filed that office, but it would not
be surprising if the House didn't get
through with business as promptly as
when the latter welded the gavel.

A 81. Ooo.ooO INSULT.

Gen. Collazo has published an article in
the Herald of Havana, in which he says
that the giving of 100000 to the Cuban
Cubans don't want charity.
Gen. Collazo is mistaken in thinking that
our government is Offering the Cubans
charity by distributing $4,000, 900 among
their soldiers. 1t intends to collect every
cent of that money from Cuba. It viii
take the amount cut of the Cuban Gus
toms receipts as soon as the money can
be spared. 1t has already given the Gu
bans all it intends TO give them.
Gen. Collazo doesn't seem to think it
would have been an insult If our gov
eminent had undertaken to distribute $50
100000 among the Cuban soldiers, including
the officers, instead of $S,OO0,OOO. The
amount would have been so magnificent
that there would have been no insult in it.
The entire trouble with Gen. Collazo and
the other troublesome Cuban generals is
that they are not getting the money they
expected to get. They had fine scheme
for looting the island. They thought that
sion and set up IA government of their own.
They would then proceed to issue bonds
for many millions of dollars, and use the
money in paying their own claims for
services-claims, in many instances, of
very doubtful validity.
Neither Gen. Collazo nor the other Gu
ban generals seem to take into considera-
ton the fact that il was the United States
that released Cuba from the yoke of Spain.
and that the United States prevented the
saddlng of Cuba with huge debt. They
also overlook the fact that without the
couldn't sell bonds to the amount OF $780,
100000 except at ruinous discount In
fact 1t is doubtful If she could sell them
at all.
What, then, has Gen. Collazo to COM
plain of? Nothing, except that he and
other generals are not paid their prepos-
ferrous claims. If they were the patriots
they pretend to be they would go to work
and build UP their country. just as the
Southern people built up the South after
the war OF secession. II 100000 were
distributed among the men alleged 10 have
composed the Cuban army there would
be little effort to restore the island to
prosperity until all the money was spent.
The way to make a country prosperous
and rich is by developing its resources.
The thing for the Cuoans, the generals as
well as the private soldiers, to do. is 10
so TO work They would be helped and
encouraged by the United States, but they
viii find they are making a mistake If they
think our government is going to support
them in idleness Their entire lack of
gratitude for what has been done for them
is sufficient to make the American people
regret that they ever extended a helping
| hand to them.

"strenuous Life"

At quarter of four the big front door
Of the school was thrown open and several
hundred boys and girls rushed out into
the street, says the Detroit Free Press. In
the middle of the line hoped, skipped,
and jumped two youngsters-mayb 8
years Old, with sturdy little legs, bright
brown eyes, and red checks.
The pair drew away from the thrOng at
the sidewalk and waited until the others
had gone along.
BY and by they were alone.
Come on!' cried one of the little fell
lows; lets go over t tn alley n see
bout it,"
Then at bound both were off.
The alley was vacated. Halfway
down it a pile of refuse. old oyster-cans,
umbrellas, and such discarded and damaS-
ed bits of property, stared at them.
The smaller of the two youngsters ran
for the pile, and, Selling an old can. flung
il back at his companion.

Then. before the other knew what mad
happened, the handle of an old umbrella

At the end of that time one of them was
the owner of a torn shirt waist, a cut
cheek, and a bleeding nose The otner

down his right cheek and met another at
the corner of his mouth, coming up from
the other direction.
Worn. weary. and bedraggled, those two
youngsters sought their homes, with tears
and snifles, streaking their faces ana
twitching their noses.
Two mothers settled down upon them
and inquired the cause of the bedraggied
condition Of their hopefuls.
And in their different homes eaeh OF
those little boys said: Teddy toll us TO-

I'VE observe" says the Columbia State,
that the Charleston News and Courier
is not throwing any bouquets at Columbia
these days, although there never was a
time when this city so deserved congrat-
ulations. From Charleston. city
we expect TO make one Of our ports of
entry in the good time coming, we get
TO flowers. Why is this? When Column
bia was a srnall-potato town the News
and Courier used to be very gracious and
encouraging, while now that it is getting
to be a metropolis. the Charleston con-
temporary ignores it," Leaving out of the
case the flowers that bloom in the spring,
of which We undertook TO hand our fair
and prosperous friend small boutonniere
the other day, we desire to say word
TO Columbia about ports Of entry. She
need have no misgivings on the score of
an outlet by sea to the markets of the
world. She is now in direct and quick
communication with the first port of the
South Atlantic section-Savannah-an
there is every indication that within
few months time there will be a second
direct line from her mills to our wharves-
And such wharves ana terminals as We
have got! They are wonderful! The able
city editor of the News and Courier, not
great while ago, highly complimented
Savannah in an article in his paper, on
her superb terminal facilities But as
great as our present terminal facilities
are, we are to have stiI more of them.
The Georgia and Alabama is now spend
ing a million of dollars on a vast terminal
plant across the river. This plant will be
ready for business within a few months.
Then Savannah will be equipped to ham
die the foreign and coastwise commerce of
the South Atlantic states. Savannah
hopes, and expects, to see upon her
wharves and in her warehouses thousands
of bales of manufactured cottons from Co
lumbia mills destined for Europe, Asia.
Africa, the Americas, the Antilles, and
Guam.

The automobile is not only swift and
silent but formidable. 1t may turn out
to be the Nemesis that is to avenge the
public upon the deadly street car, in more
ways than one. In New York the other
day an automobile ran into a cable car
The uniformed might think that such
collision could only result in the wrecking
of the automobile. But in this instance
nothing of the kind occurred. The street
car was derailed and partly overturned,
while the automobile was uninjured save
for a few scratches on the side A pas
senger In the horseless carriage at the
time of the collision said: 1--WE felt no
impact whatever. We just rolled into the
car as if it had been a snow bank, and
our heavy roller wheels picked it up as
if it had been box" So, it seems, the
new vehicles may be used for butting OBJ
streperous street cars off the track, as
well as for hauling passengers and freight
around.
