FIVE SPANISH SPIE'
RECENTLY REWARDED FOR THEIR WORK
HERE DURING VAR.
Volunteered for the Service Without Hope Of
R ward, and had Som3 Narrow Is
cages While Here.

London, Jan. 19.-The Madrid cor
respondent of the Daily Mail says:
among those recently rewarded foI
military services during the Hispano
American war are five Spanish officers
who volunteered. without asking re-
ward. to go to the United States after
war was declared and to supply informa
ton to the Spanish Government. They
formed Il commission under Lieutenant
Colonel Don Louis Serrano.
"They visited continually New York
city, Washington. jacksonville, Key
West, Tampa and other points, changing
their posts every few days. They had
many narrow escapes from detection
notably on one occasion when one OF
them met face to face New York
World correspondent whom he had
known in Havana. The journalist chiv-
alrously feigned ignorance. In addition
to the secret service the commission
bought and sent to Cuba a considerable
amount Of ammunition. The largest
consignment was ready to leave when
peace was signed"

SPIRIT OF The PRESS.
LET THE WINSTON BILL BE
AMENDED.
Washington AIessenger

Washington Messenger.
While to the casual observer the pro-
posed amendment offered by Representa-
tive Winston TO the Constitution of the
State to eliminate the negro vote, is from
clad in its provisions; and he has eXer-
cised all due vigilance in detailing the
catalogue OF crimes that shall debar
upon conviction from voting, yet we
think there are two classes which we
might call crimes not mentioned i'll the
bill, and if they were incorporated into
its provisions would go Il long way III
debarring the negro vote.
The two provisions to which we re-
fer are the different aliases habitually
used by the majority of negroes, and che
custom of having wife ut every resi-
dence he may happen to be. The negro
in any community that does not have
one or more aliases is an exception rath-
or than the general rule. We know ne
groes that have voted in this city for
years and under names entirely foreign
from the ones they have been known by
from time immemOrial. To Illustrate,
during the election two years ago we hap
pened to be one of the poll holders. and
Imagine our surprise when negro we
had known for years. who had been
raised i'll this city, marched up to deposit
his vote, and when informed his name
did not appear on the registration book,
informed us his name was not \ that he
had been known by all his life, but
he had registered as ID, and that was
his rame. IN fact so true is it
that the majority of negroes are register
ed in names different from what they
have been known by in community that
it is impossible to tell which one of their
aliases is the real name. Thcni again
among the race the marriage tie has been
looked upon so loosely and the custom is
SO common for the negro to have n wife
ut every prospective resting place, pro-
vision debarring from voting for the Of
fence would go Il long way toward
strengthening the bill. AS heartily as
We approve of Mr.. WmstOn's bill we can
not refrain from expressing the opinion
that an amendment 10 1t should be pass
ed excluding each voter who is not
registered in the name he is generally
known by in the community also
each voter guilty of the viola
ton of the marriage relation. We believe
the same condition of affairs that exists
in this county prevails all over the cast
crn part Of the State and the bill thus
amended will carry out in every particU-
lar the promises the Democrats made
to the people in the last campaign.

NO MORE NEW JUDGES.
Goldsboro Argus.

We are astonished that some of our
legislators should think of increasing the
number of judges. We have just as
many as we need. As for being over
worked and receiving meagre pay, We
would suggest that none of the judges
now on tho bench are forced to remain.
If the work is too heavy and the pay
too small why they may resign. The
people are not begging anybody to remain
on the bench, $3.50 is a splendid sal
airy, even for very hard work. and there
are many able lawyers in North Caro-

TO IMPEACH JUDGE NORWOOD

Mr.. Curtis, of Buncombe, is to be APP
plauded for having introduced resolu-
ton in the House to impeach Judge
Norwood.
We had hoped all along, since it be-
came known that Judge Norwood could
not overcome his infirmity, that he
would resign his claims to the office, and
thus prevent the necessity of impeach-
mcnt. As he has not done SO, it would
be reflection upon this Legislature to
adjourn without doing its clear duty.

HOW TO REMOVE THE MENACE
Webster's Weekly.

The suffrage article of the Mississippi
Constitution cannot be regarded as an
experiment. 1t has been tried and found
not wanting in any particular. Add to
it registered primary election like
South Carolina has. and provide a dual
system of county government until the
whole State can safely adopt a uniform
system of election of all officers, and
the danger of the negro again becoming
a menace to the peace and prosperity
of the State will be permanently re-
moved.

THERE WILL BE NO MORE
JUDGES.

At the Democratic caucus it was as
ccrtained that there are needed only $50
weeks of court in all the counties in the
State. AS this requires each of the
twelve judges to hold court only forty
enc weeks in each year 1T became aD-
parent to all that there was no need of
additional courts, but need only of bet
ter distribution.

THE CLERGYMAN OF TODAY.
INa,y York Natinn l


In the readjustment of social opinion
which has been going on during the
last generation or two few changes are
more striking than that in the popular
feeling towards the ministry. Taking
American soeietylas whole. here can
he no question but that popular regard
for the ministry has much declined.
Among educated people none uf tbs So
called learned professions is held III 50
slight esteem, or made the target for
50 hot tlre OF criticism. 1t has not
always beer So. Within the memory Of
men now living the position of the rnin-
lister Was one of peculiar social dis
tinction, while the respect and rever-
eaee IN which he was held were practi-
#cally universal OF sound learning and
scrupulous morality and With a pro-
found sense. of duty and obligation, he
led. by sheer intellectual and spiritua,
force the thought of the community
and largely directed its activities. To
the. youth OF the present day such.a de-
soription may well SAVIOR of romance.
With few exceptions the civic func-
tions of the minister have been reduced
to near the vanishing point. His coun-
sci is now rarely sought on important
public questions. His sermons aud adj
dresses on political subjects seldom
make much Of an impression. while his
suggestions of reform are apt TO beBof
THE visionary and impracticable char
acter which provokes contempt. If
there be particularly specious politi-
cal OF economic fad rampant in the
community he is very likely to get en-
tangled in It. In short, he is out Of
touch with life, aside from the stream
of daily struggle and need, in the world
but not of it.
1T is the modern church, with its
widening social relations and multiple
activities. that is slowly but surely
changing all this. There can be no
doubt that. whether for good or for
Lin, wnat would once have been recog-
nized as the distinctively religious side
| of church work is taking less ard less
| Important place. The modern minister
deems it his duty to fit his parish
/ toner's for the life that now is as well
| as for that which is TO come, and he
4 looks upon his church as center and
source of social regeneration and in
spiration, in which the bodies and
/ minds of men receive attention as vel
/ as their souls. To one trained under
the old order of things, a bare enumer-
alton of the operations and interests OF
great city parish. with its social, edu-
cational. industrial, recreative. medical
and business sides, seems almost in
credible, while few indeed of those who
share the benefits realize what de-
mands such an organization makes up
on the man at the head of it, Only q
minister of large administrative capac-
|ity, social presence, and tact. and skill
in dealing With men, can guide success.
