EX-President Grover Cleveland. in
reply to request for an expression Of
his views on the question of expansion
, and.annexation, saiu:
Il do not care to repeat nv views
concerning the prevailing epidemic IF
of imperialism and territorial exnan-
sion.
Assuming, however, that my ideas
on the subject are antlquated and un.
suited to these progressive DAYS. if
is matter of surprise to me that the
refusal of certain natives of our new
possessions to acqulesce IN the benefi-
cence of subjecting them to our con-
troll and management should in the
least disturb our expansionists. The
phase of the situation ought not to
have been unanticipated nor the Incl
dents naturally growing out of it over
looked.
" The remady is obvious and simp lie
The misguided inhabitants of our an
nexed territory who prefer something
different from the plan for their con.
troll which We propose, or who oppose
our high designs in their behalf. should
be slaughtered. The killing of natives
has been feature of expansion since
expansion began, and orr imperialistlc
enthusiasm should not be checked by
the prospective necessity of destroying
a few thousand or a few hundred
thousand Filipinos.
"This should only be regarded as
one one stage in transcendentaIly
great movement, mere incident to
its progress.
"Of course some unprepared souls
would then be lost before we had the
opportunity of Christianizing them,
but surely those of our clergymen who
have done so much to encourage ex~
panslon could manage that difficulty.

THEY GO OFF INTO A TRANCE.
SENSATION AT MEETINGS EVAN.
GELIST is HOLDING.
Women Lose Consciousness, and am eo
covering from Trance Say They Have
Been With Angels.

A dispatch from Waycross, Ga. saws
Considerable excitement has been caused
among the people who are attending the
Gospel tent meetings being INDICTED
by Evangelist Pulliam.
A number of persons have gone into a
trance, and relate wonderful things of
what they saw, heard and experienced
while in the land of the angels.
The first to go into trance was Mrs
Victoria Booth, young bride of only a
few months. She knelt at the mourners,
bench early in the evening and continued
Ia supplication for salvation until abont
IL o'clock, when she suddenly went into
trance For eighteen hours she re-
NAMED in this state, lying as one dead
except occasionally as she would revive
for few seconds, make some reference
TO the brightness of the realm in which
she was resting and lapse again into a
comitose state. She was finally restored
TO her normal state about O'Clock YES
terday afternoon, and went to the tent
again last night.
A second time she went into trance.
and at last accounts she hal not come To
her natural state. She was removed to
the home of her father.in>law, John
Booth, where she is at present.
There were two or three others who
went into trance, but the period was
OF shorter duration. Evangelist Pulliam
says one man, who went into trance at
his tent, sung a new song when he re-
gained consciousness, song never heard
before.
Mr.. Pulliam says the trance state is
quite common in his meetings. He is
one of the so-called fire baptized holi-
ness people, being president of that sect
In Florida. They believe that there is a
state higher than Christians usually at
tain to in this life, known as the baptism
by ire When man reaches there his
race Is sometimes changed and shines
ike light in the darkness. Some of
our people are very much interested and
excited over these meetings at the tent.

The bones of Columbus have passed
through many vicissitudes, but prob

Good Roads in New Lersev.

Five years ago New Jersey passed a
good roads law. Since that time 325
miles of improved highway have been
built at total cost of S565 1929, or about
$1,750 per mile. This represents, of
course, considerable additional burden
to the taxpayers, but it may be doubted
that the increase in taxes is more bur
densome than the old, heavy, bad roads
we're before the movement to improve
them was begun. There has been marked
development along the lines of the i'm
proved roads, property values have gone
up and the cost of transportation de-
creased. The expenditure is an invest
ment that will earn returns for many
wears to come

NEVER, NEVER AGAIN
VIII This Fieherm .n Try Dynamite ON ,,,a
FinnY Tribe.

FinnY Tribe.
The Cordel9 Sentinel tells this ono
Cor7ele has an expert fisherman who
is also a tirst~clasS bird hupCer. Now
We have it on the quiet that this pol1
known fisherman attempted to use q
dynamite cartridge for the destruction
OF the finny tribe He wandered down
to lonely place on Gum creek. where
he thought he could use the unlawful
Stuh without fear of detection. No
llVlng creature was to be seen save his
Ial0h1ai dog that always ACCOMPANIED
MIN. This dog was a magnlfcen5 ra
Vrlever, and the gentleman prlzed him
very mighty. The powerful little car
Grldge was taken out and the fuse Iight-
ed, and the fisherman pitched it 70 tha
spoC where the unsuspecting fish were
sporting. The faithful retriever
however was on the alert, and whom
he saw his masters arm swing ont and
the object fly into the air, on the in
slant he spraDg from the bank. and
when the cartridge struck the water he
was there, too, and seized it in his
mouth. Turning, he swan rapidly TO
che shore, and started towards his mas
ter, with the deadly little thing be-
tween his teeth while the fuse was
fuzzlng and suffering.
The fisherman took to his heels and
for about mile it is said there was
one OF the widest chases through Gum
creek swamp that has ever been heard
Of Through mud and water, bamboo
and thorns, he fed for dear life. with
his faithful dog right at his heels, He
lost his hat, and his hands and face
were torn and bleeding; but when he
glanced back and saw the splendid re-
trieyer close Oh his track, he tarried
not.
AT last he tripped and fell full
length in the mud, and as he did there
was loud explosion just at his heels
When he got up and found that he
was uninjured by the explosion he
looked for his fine dog, but could only
find small fragment of leg in one
place and part of the tail in another.
The dog had been literally blown to
pieces.
The fisherman still bears the marks
of his wild fight through the swamp.
He admits that it was his first and
shall be his last attempt at killing fish
with dynamite.

NO MONEY FOR INSPECTORS.
Slow Sale of Fertilizers Cuts Off the Agri.
culture Departments Revenue.

Slow Sale of Fertilizers Cuts Off the Agri.
culture Departments Revenue.
A somewhat peculiar condition of
affairs exists in the department of ag-
riculture, and in consequence Commits
slOner Stevens is being occasioned no
little annoyance. The fertilizer sea
son is SO far behind that practically
no tags have been sold by the depart
ment. The money to pay the fertiIiz-
er inspectors comes from the tag sales,
and IN consequence of there being
practically no sales there is little or
money to pay the inspect ors.
Commissioner Stevens on this ac-
count has postponed the appointment
of some of the short term inspectors.
He does not want to commission them
until business picks up, and they have
work to do that will bring in the fees
to pay their salaries.
Fertilizer sales are about mouth
behind time. This may be on account
of the weather and then it may indi-
cate a falling off In the use of such
goods by the farmers the coming year.
Last years sales were phenomenal.
The cotton crop was large and prices
so low that much cotton was abandon.
ed in the fields. because 1T was not
worth the picking. Some of the Off
Gals think the slow sale of fertilizers
may indicate that there is to be a big
slump IN the business, and cOrres>
pondlng decrease in the cotton crop of
the state for the coming season.

WHAT OUR PRESIDENTS COST.
A Good Round Sum of Money Yearly, But
Less Than Other Nations Pay.


Presidents "come high, but we have
got to have them" 1t costs us $lI4,-
S65 year for chief executive. His
salary is $4,000 and "found," as our
western neighbOrs say. The presi-
dents finding is rather cOmprehen-
sive, covering about every possible re-
qulrement of family. His private
secretary, the clerks, doorkeepers, mes
senger and steward and three other
servants cost us $93, S65 year. Then
there is contingent fund of $4,000 a
year, which the president may use ac>
corning to his discretion.
In furniture and repairs to the White
House the sum of $4,000 more, TO be
used by the direction of the president,
is provided by the nation and is al
ways expended. For fuel alone $4,000
is allowed; and for necessary repairs
to che green house $4,000.
Altogether the presidential "fnd-
ing" amounts to the snug sum of $64,-
$50, nearly $4,000 year more than
his salary. The two aggregate STA
865. This is an imposing aggregate,
but it is small compared with other
presidents. The president of the
French republic receives as salary
100000 year, s82, 48O for contingent
purposes and handsome house rent
free.

A Good Superstition.

Commissioner O. b. Stevens made a
very good suggestion the other day
when he urged the merchants to aid the
farmers in thoroughly diversifYing their
crops. He urged that credit be based
upon the amount of home supplies
which the farmers make instead OF upon
their cotton. And the merchants could
go further than that. They could en-
courage home production by buying the
products of the farmers in their respects

the people of Georgia will not have to
send out of the state for farm products
better era will be uoon every class of

Ppcently there have been stated in

now the custom; that is shortening

is apt to De such az energetic kick that
the populis6 party may feel constrained
TO write something about the matter into

As matter of fact, one court has al

fed the steady company that it thinks
II o'clock is late enough fer any young

Furthermore, how would the Cleve-

says the Washington correspondent of

he would be little polite and exhibit
