CORRECTING FALSE STATEMENTS.

Although the New York. Evening
Post is edited by an able, scholarly
Englishman, it does not fail to see the
facts and to tell truth as to the war
that is near at hand in the Transvaal.
Ut c%orrects false impressions made by
Chamberlain and the English press as
to he Beers. For instance in its issue
of the 9Th instant, it shows up j. H.
Hammond, an American mining expert,
as to his testimony against the Beers.
1t reminds it's readers hat this very
man was implicated in the Jameson
rad, was arrested, tried, convicted and
sentenced to death, the Sentence being
and a fine Of $50, 0O0, which was paid"
SO he has a grudge evidently. Kruger
declares that he and his people have
done nothing to precipitate war-and,
to quote the Evening Post, that they
have made all reasonable offers to Sc
cure political rights to the Outlanders,
that the latter have refused to avail
themselves of such rights, and that
Mr.. Chamberlain has beer jockeying
with the question in order to bring on
a war" 1t also refers to Chamberlain's
verbal bubble, urged by him more
than once, that the refusal CT the
Transvaal "to accept EnF.and's fair
offe, rs, etc" The Evening POST says:
But the truth is that p esident Kru-
ger did not think he was refusing. He
thought he was accepting. 1t is true
that he annexed certain conditions to
his acceptance, but he was assured in
advance, or thought he was, that his
conditions would not be offensive to
Great Britain. Before the Boer
authorities made their proposal of a
five years franchise with the condition
that assertion of suZerainty be dropped,
the British agent, Mr.. Conyngham
Greene, was carefully sounded. He ca
bled to England, and presently had the
following dispatch from C~hamberlain:
IF the Government of the South At
-rican Republic were to put forward
such a proposal, this Government
would not consider it a refusal IF the
joint commission, but would be prepar-
ed to consider it on it's merits"

In the Spanish war the south did it's
duty well, so far as the Mckinley gang
would allow it. 1t would not give Gen.
eral Lee an opportunity in the field,
and it othe! wise Disseminated against
the south. But all the same, the south
showed willingness to fight and die un-
der the cry of Remember the Maine!"
and give help to the struggling Gu
bans. AS to the Philippines, the south
should nc: take part in SO useless, in
defensible a war that even the best
soldiers and sailo-s condemn. Writing
of the Spanish wal The Atlanta Con-
stitution said of the heroes in the
south: wheeler, Hobson, Bagley,
Blue, Lee, Brumby and Wood-what a
bright galaxy of real heroes?" Hobson,
Bagley and Blue are of North Carolina
descent, the last two being native here
and to the manner born"

THE CAUSES OF MONEY sTRTN-
EENCY.

Il is known that IN New York money
cannot be borrowed now except at ex-
tremely high rates The banks haD
been comforting as 10 how 10 meet The
pressing demand for money. A Salt
Lake City silver republican, Nicholas
Treeweek. is in New York and gives
the N. Y. Tribune,a brother republican.
his explanation Of the OF the
great stringency. Here is what lie Is
reported as saying:
ITO move the cotton crop costs $780,
coo, 900, and the corn and other Western
crops 800. 000, 900 more, and 10 this 1
think the present scarcity of money
here is due. 1t is only a temporary
stringency, however. and will soon pass
away. / am a silver man and silyer
mine owner, and also a republican. My
silver theories embrace a bimetallic
standard, Endorsed by the leading ma
tions Of the world. such as America
England, France, Germany n Rus
STA. Such an Endorsement as the Com
mission headed by senator Wolcott, OF
Colorado, went after a few years ago
and returned withoes-and with only
the remembrance OF some royal enter
tanning 10 show as the net results of
their trip. England at that time stood
in the way Of international bimetallism,
but 1 believe the day Will come when
she will withdraw her objections. Sta
tistics show that OF the foodstuffs and
necessities of life England must import
from outside countries 60 per cent OF
all she uses. This amounts, in round
numbers, to $500, 600, 600 a year, and she
obtains what she needs in this partic=
ular from the Continent of Europe and
from this country, the larger part COM
;-- f~4-, ,- ~ x-arl1S- tnrnl xiSih1A
gold supply amount 10 49, 600, 000, 900,
and to my mind, with this constant in
come of England's money to us for the
purchase of the necessities of life, II
becomes a simple question of multipli-
cation as to how long a TIM must
elapse before she will be compelled to
ask a favor of the United States. h
hat time comes, / hin We will be in
a position to ask for international BIZ
metalliSm.'
That is plausible, and it may be real.
The fact exists that there is a great
scarcity of none whatever the cause
or causes. In the midst of the greatest
commercial prosperity, with cotton ad-
vancing, and immense crops in the
great West, and building of all kinds
in great abundance, there is a decided
monetary stringency. Why this? Is
the solution as is given by the Utah
economist and theorizer? In the south
it is doubtful if there is more than 81
per capita, and in North Carolina if
more than So. Mr.. Treeweek is conf
IN hat Utah inc the far Western
States will all vote for the republican
nominee in 1900. Ee says all who
strayed to Bryan have returned to the
old food.

THEN AND NOW.

The time was when President Bill
Mckinley spoke in rounded periods
Of mora principles "as applicable to
politics and government Bill can talk
well when he has no bad politics to
subserve. At a New England dinner
in Philadelphia in 1890, Mac was even
eloquent, and declared with impressive
vigor that human rights and constitu-
tional privileges Il not be forgotten
in the ace for wealth and commercial
supremacy" Warming to his subject,
he went on, 1.-The government of the
people must be by h people. and not
by a few of h people: it must rest
upon the free consent of the governed,
and ali of the governed" And he fell
into a tone of solemn warning when he
said: Power, it must be remembered,
which is secuered by oppression, or
u~surpation. or by any form OF injustice,
is soon dethroned. We have no right / n
law or morals TO usurp that which be-
longs TO another, whether it is proper
ty or power."
Now that is excellent, it is sound. IL
is wise. But what does Billy say now?
He has Topped and talks through his
hat" He was a miserable traitor" for
talking SO much sense and showing he
understood what was Just and fight.
He Is q convert now to the Bismarckian

We believe in Kipling'S genius, for

We believe in Kipling's genius, for ii
is very real, very vigorous, very unique
His is an original mind. He carves out
for himself and has no model in other
writer's. He has produced much that
will long survive and that deserves to
survive. Many of our readers know
of that writer in English who calls her
self "Ouida," a strange, gifted woman,
She dislikes Kipling n wrote to The
London Times years ago in this strain:
He has neither knowledge of style
nor common acquaintance with gram
mar, and should be whipped n put
in a corner like a naughty child for
his ~impudence in touching pen andink
without knowing how to use Them"
Kipling bided his time and got his
revenge without savagery. The Satur-
day Evening Pos gives it, and says it
shows the kindlier side Of Kipling's
nature" He wrote:
"Ouida is a cynical, yellow woman
in a lilac frock, who drinks tea and
brandy n smokes cigarettes; the
world to her is as hollow as a sucked
Esq.,, bitter as green nuts; but there are
certain people in the slums of Florence
who could tell rare stories Of her gen.
erosity n kindness. She smokes and
smokes, N says nothing of her num-
erous charities. Never speak Of your
good Deeds she says, or some one may
find out our motive"

Schley made his way to Sampson at
the White house reception and cordial
ly greeted him, shaking his hand. A
dispatch to The Philadelphia Record
tells how the real hero Of Santiago bore
himself, and how the sham hero acted:
when Admiral Schley appeared, &C
cording to etiquette, Sampson should
have come forward to greet him, as
Schley ranks him two numbers. In
stead of doing that, Sampson pushed
himself back into a cOrne and endeav-
ored to avoid recognizing Schley. The
latter, with a good-natured smile on
his face, threw naval traditions to the
winds by himself hunting up Sampson,
whose hand was behind him. But
Schley found it. He grasped it hearth
ly and shook it, still with that smile.
Sampson blushed a furious red"

counties. 1t says farther that there
has been a large desertion from the
democracy to the republicans in those
two counties. But that may prove "a
fake"
