We think II is lime that j, change 81, i &c
should bs maao In tho policy Of sshs
State in regard to the use to be
made of the oonyicts. In our judg-.
ment it is q mistaken policy TO hire
them out to work on farms, and it is
clearly mistake for the State to
engage in farming operations to
raise cotton at cents. A better
policy, it seems to us, would be to
sell out the State farms, to call in
tho conviota as fast as the contracts
expire and to use every able-bodied
convict in building roads, not work
ing tho roads. The road question is
one of the most serious problems
that nov confront us. There is not
a decent road worthy of the name in
the Piedmont section, especially
whore we have red clay to deal with.
The universal chorus in all the
newspapers from this section is that
the roads are simply impossible.
There are perhaps 600 conviots in
the penitentiary who are able to
work on tho highways. Let them be
hired out to the counties on the
same terms they are now hired out
on the farms, and let them be used
in building permanent highways,
radiating from the county seat in
the four principal directions, and lot
the work be done ON each alternately
and let tho roads be graded under
the supervision of competent en-
gineer. In this way few miles of
permanent roadway could be COM
pletod each year. Let SO per cent
of the commutation road tax be
used for this purpose and let the
other so per cent be retained in the
townships to keep up the roads
under the present system. We
would have under this plan, or some
other like it, something of perma-
nent value to show for our expcndi-
ture of money and not, have mud
hole into which Cur money is dumped.

The February meeting of the
Optimist club, of Cincinnati, was
presided over by it's president, S. Nj.
FELTON,, in New York, over long
distance telephone. IIe performed
all the functions of the office. sue
cessfully, and several responses to
toasts were made by absent members
in the same way. Each guest had a
telephone receiver by his side at the
table. The club was not charged
full rates for the service, hence it

John Barrett, United States minister
to Siam, calls tho attention of our cotton
growers and merchants to tho fact chat
tho opportunities for trade which tho
East holds out to them arc simply infinite.
Out of tho 600, ,OOO, 900 people who inhabit
tho Asiatic countries not fewer than
400,0O0,000 of the number arc clothed in
cotton garments, and out of 5000, 600
square miles which these Asiatio coun-
tries contain, not moro than 100, 900
square miles arc adapted to tho produc-
ton of cotton. In these facts may bc
promised much for the cotton growing
States Of North America.

A Boston lady objected to her
children studying physiology because
it made her nervous to know the con-
struction of the human body, and
she desired that her progeny be
spared that mental anguish. The
consequence was that her family con-
stantly required the services of doc
tor, says the Boston Transcript. The
lady, because she would not study ply
siology, had remarkably unhealthy
children. They lived in over-heated
rooms, ate rich food "and had trou-
BILE with teeth, skin, nose and throat"
and this presumably because their
mamma did not study physiology.
Despite this fact the lady buried all
her family.

cut away, the poison remains in the

afresh, with renewed violence.
The wonderful success of S. S. S.
in curing Obstinate, deep-seated
blood diseases, which were considered
incurable, induced few despairing
sufferers to try it for Cancer, after
exhausting tho skill of the physicians,
without cure. Much to thoir de-
light S. S. s. proved equal to tho
disease, and promptly effected n cure.
The glad news spread rapidly, and it
was soon demonstrated beyond doubt
that cure had at last been found

MUST GET SUGAR FROM CUBA.
Our Island Possessions Cannot Sup.
ply the Demand

Havana. Oct. 1.-THE Patria says to-
day: There is no need to fear that the
United States can get all sugar needed
by the Americans from the American
sugar islands. The most that Porto
Rico can produce is 100000 tons. Ha-
wall could not produce 100000 tons. The
Philippines are as yet uncenquered,
and, moreover they are twenty-five
days distant. Hawaii, counting the
freight by sea to San Francisco and
the railroad freight to the eastern
coast, could not compete in the east
ern states with Cuban sugar, which
takes only five days to reach New
York.
The annual consumption of sugar in.
the United States is not less than q
100000 tons and it is steadily increas-
ing If we take away the $4,000 tons
supplied by Hawaii and Porto Rico,
there is a balance of about 1,50O, 900 tons
to be obtained from Louisiana and
the Philippines. Louisiana supplies
only 25OOO0 tons, which she will not be
able to increase ON account of the
lowering in prices caused by allowing
Hawaiian and the Philippine sugar to
enter the United States. The Ameri-
cans, therefore, will be compelled to
apply to Cuba

VERMONT WELCOMES DEVEl
GREATEST DEMONSTRATION
EVER SEEN IN MONTPELIER.
Thirty Thousand Visitors Join the
Admifal's Fellow Townsmen In
Extending a Greeting.

| Montpelier. VT, Oct. 12.-The state
/ of Vermont gave welcome to Admiral
! Dewey today with a parade and a re-
ception at the state house. The weather
was perfect and 10000 visitors joined

ebration Never before has there been

| ly decorated.

Norwich cadets. Then a band concert
took place At noon the governors sa-
lutte was fired, and Immediately after
moon the column for the parade was
formed.
Admiral Dewey donned his uniform
of full admiral of the navy and with
the state and city committees entered
a landau and through the long line Of
cheering people was driven to the foot
of State street, where a column of
about 500 men were awaiting to par
ticipate in the parade.
The Norwich university cadets formed
a personal guard about Admiral Dew
ey's carriage. The parade began at
2:SO and the route, nearly three miles
in length lay through streets lined

kept busy during the entire time in re-
turning the greetings
Before the marchers reached the cap
itol grounds the admiral's party left
the carriages and assembled the state
house reviewing stand. The procession.
continued through the main streets and
up through the capitol grounds, salutes
being given as each company passed
the admiral.

restored Governor Smith, turning to.
Admiral Dewey, extended to him the.
welcome of the state of Vermont, at the.
same time presenting to him the medal

given him as a memorial. Then the.
mayor offered the welcome of the city.
and the formal exercises were at an,
end.
The admiral was escorted back to his
car after short reception at the state
house.
