when brought to his senses by shout
from comrade, reversed his horses
and glancing around asked, where is
my little brother?' but the latter was
not in sight. Where Oh! where was
he? Had he been riding with his best
girl after night it wouldn't have been
so surprising, but that fellow could
run off bridge in broad daylight with
nothing but load of hogs was simply
absurc. But nevertheless such was
the case and he came so near splitting
the pigs into the creek that even yet
when you mention hogs Toms eyes
take on strange look.

Prohibition in Georuia.

The Willingham prohibition bill now pend
ing in the Georgia legislature is very dras-
tic measure. 1t does not greatly disturb the
rural districts of the state, because 100 of
the 1877 counties of the state are already
dry" Practically speaking 1t is a bill to
make the cities and larger county towns
dry" also. 1t means, says Mayor Wood
ward, ruin to the cities of the state. and
increasing drunkenness and disorder every
where.
Local-option prohibition has long existed
in Georgia, and under its operations two
thirds of the state has driven saloons out.
The two-thirds now proposes to coerse the
remaining one-third. The outstanding third
is to be treated to compulsory prohibi-
tion.
After all, it will be found that iocal-op-
ton prohibition is better than compulsory
prohibition, because a liquor law that does
not have a strong public sentiment behind
1t soon becomes a dead letter. Local-op-
ton prohibition implies a strong public SEN
timent. A community that deliberately
and freely of its own motion adopts prohi-
bition, cannot be said to be interfering IN
duly with individual freedom, for the i'm
dividual units must first say that they de-
sire to be interfered with in the matter
of the sale of Intoxicating liquors.
The cities of Georgia see, however, blue
ruin in the pending and very much i'm
pending Willingham bill. They say it will
take away revenue, thus increasing other
forms of taxation, while it will add to
drunkenness and disorder. Moonshiners
will supply blind tigers, and the condition
of the city will pass from bad to warse. In
the long run these things might be over
come, but at first no doubt there would be
an up-and-down time in the cities of Geor-
gia under the Wilhngham bill.

and some Malays, but two-thirds of them
are Chinese. They are taking their profits as
they go. and it is believed they are fur
nishing Aeuinaldo with the money he
needs They carry on a contraband trade
through sailing vessels. When the govern
ment is able to stop this contraband trade
1t Is difficult to see how the combines in
sugar and hemp can prosper. 1t is diff
cult to see where Aguinaldo can then find
financial backing. If it becomes clear that
the Chinese traders have been supplying
the crafty Aguinaldo with money, it will
fare badly with them. They will be ham
died without gloves. As things now stand
it looks as if Aguinaldo. is the tool of the
sugar and hemp traders. The monks are
not supplying him with money, and no one
else in Luzon has any money to give away.
The Chinese traders of Luzon are as
rule mestizos. They were born on the
island They are the children of Chinese
fathers and Malay mothers, possessing the
cunning of both They speak the tongue
of their mothers. They are really people
they are very sharp traders They are
wholly out of sympathy with American
ideas and American methods. They hope to
defeat them, and for that reason they are
willing to pay freely in order to keep
Aguinaldo and his following in the field.

THE LADY'S LINGERIE

From the St Louis Post-Appeal.
General Otis has just made an important
capture. He has taken Sonora Aguinaldo's
wardrobe.
This is by far the most satisfactory mill
tary achievement of the war 1t is not
easy to calculate the consequences of such
a catch.
The Sonora cannot do without a ward
robe. She must have another one without
delay-one suitable to her dignity as wife of
the head of great state.
What effect will this nave upon Aguin
aldos exchequer? Can the treasury bear
the strain? The wardrobe of a Filipino lady
of quality may not be extensive, but it is
sure to be the best that money will buy and
prices must be very high in Luzon.
General Otis is to be congratulated Next
to catching Aguinaldo, the capture of his
wifes wardrobe is the most brilliant feat of
arms possible in that swamp country.

American Merchant Shipping.

Commissioner of Navigation Chamberlain
shows that the percentage of our foreign
! trade carried in American vessels has now
fallen to less than 8 per cent, the smallest
percentage in our history. This includes
both exports and imports. Less than per
cent. of our open-sea trade is carried in
vessels of American registry. This is dis
graceful, but it is only one of the many
disgraceful results of the tariff robbery sys-
tenn instituted and maintained by the repub
lican party-the robbery, that is to say, of
the many for the benefit of the few, and
particularly of the campaign purse.
The inner ring now propose to promote
the merchant shipping by an elaborate
system of bountes. The Hanna-Payne
bill calls for a maximum expenditure OF ST.
100000 year in that direction The bill has
not been by any means abandoned, and it
will be revived and pressed. now that both
branches of congress are controlled by re-
publcans.
The Payne-H Hanna plan would not only be
burden, but 1T would not give us due
share of the carrying trade of the world. 1t
would not only deplete the treasury to some
extent, but it would prove delusion and
a snare.
What is needed is repeal of the tariff
robberies that increase the cost of pate-
rails that go into ships; and as merchant
ships can not be created in a day, the
navigation laws should be changed so that
foreign built ships can be purchased, and
sailed under the American flag. The right
to build at home ships cheaply is needed,
and the right to buy ships abroad is also
needed These concessions would not cost
the taxpayers a penny, and they would
build up a merchant marine much faster
and in a much more permanent manner
than the Payne-Hanna subsidy bill would
do. The Payne-Hanna bill aims to take the
money flched by robber tariff from the
pockets of the people, and distribute 1t
among a lot of shipowners who would con-
tribute LITERALLY to campaign funds. 1t Is
an unusually rotton scheme even for the
republican party. 1t is to be passed, II
possible In the new congress.

COMING MONEY
The Enormous Profits of Sir Henry Irving's
Theatrical Talent

From the Chicago Inter-Ocean.
New York, November 10.-When the cur
tain is rolled down on the last performance
at the Knickerbocker theater of Sir Henry
Irving and his London Lyceum company
next Saturday night they will have full
filled one of the most remarkable engage
ments ever attempted in this city. From
October 26, the date of the opening sale of
seats for his first weeks performances, I'M
til last Thursday when seats were placed
on sale for this, his last week. not a chair
was obtainable two days after they were
offered to the public. ~
When the statement for the entire en-
gagement is handed to the actor before his
departure next Saturday for Boston, where
he goes to fulfill another three weeks en-
gagement, it will show that the business
he has done will exceed that of any New
York appearance of his since he first came
to this country sixteen years ago. The to-
tai amount received will be about $s1, 900 for
twenty-five performances, or $27,000 for each
week, and an average of 1920 for each in
dvidual performance. The seating capaci-
ty of the Knickerbocker theater is 1,75O.
These extraordinary receipts were I'M
doubtedly largely due to the popularity of
the Sardou drama, "Robespirre." Another
feature of the engagement which tended
to make it financially successful was the
fact that the knighted actor had no other
great star of attraction to compete against.
Grand opera, which heretofore interferred
with him, was absent this time.
1t is estimated that when the twenty
weeks engagement is concluded Mr.. r.
wing will have taken as his profit for the
season nearly 100000. 1t is not unlikely
that supplementary season of two or
three weeks will be given in this city, pro-
vided arrangements can be made in London
whereby the opening in the English me-
tropohs can be deferred for that length of
time. Negotiations to this end are now
under way.

national capital last night but owing to the
physical indisposltion of Mrs. Underwood
he was unable to depart. Colonel Bank
head will on Thursday attend a meeting
of his supporters in the matter of the
democratic nomination for the speakership
of the house of representatives. The
chances seem to be now, as they have been
for several months, that Colonel Bankhead
will win. There are four avowed candi-
dates, Colonel Bankhead of Alabama, Mr..
Richardson of Tennessee, and Mr.. Dear
mond of Missouri. The name of Mr..
William E. Suzer of New York will be pre-
scented by the New York and New Jersey
democrats; but 1t is believed that Mr..
Suffers powerful and well-deserved
strength will go to Colonel Bankhead at the
proper moment. Colonel Banl1head declined
very positively last night to be quoted upon
the matter of his candidature.

NE ONLY DAILY NEWSPAPER IN MABAaA
AquinaIdo No Longer in the Field.

Agulnaldo as the civil and military head
of a state has ceased to exist. He is now
Aguinaldo, fugitive. There is no longer
any pretense of organized resistance. His
followers flee whenever and wherever they
are approached by troops. As the ground
willy leader and his Irregular followers will
be chased from point to point, and in the
end he will be apt to escape small sail
ing vessel from the island to the mainland.
He is very shrewd, but he will be COM
PEELED to leave the island.
When congress meets such thing as or
ganized resistance to the government in
Luzon will have ceased to be. 1t does not
in fact exist now. The railroad and much
of his paraphernalia have been taken from
him, and every day sees him driven far
Their and farther towards tribes that are
hostile to him. Supplies and recruits are
now, or soon will be. out of his reach, The
whole business has collapsed as nearly as
desultory warfare of that nature can col
lapse. Instead of collapsing 1t disntegrates
and dissolves itself 1t peters out
The occupation of Luzon will now pro-
coed rapidly. and congress will be left free
to decide what the government of the island
and group shall be. All men, including
Mr.. Bryan, were united in saying that the
Aguinaldo movement should be put down
by force. 1t has practically disappeared.
and DIT is well that 1T has disappeared be-
fore congress meets. The flag has not been
hauled down. Aguinaldo has been starved
out His warfare was of the poorest sort at
the best, and all concerned are glad to be
rid of him.
What shall follow? Is a colony to be set
up, with a military governor at its head?
We have come to the parting of the ways,
and congress will have to choose between
old-fashioned republicanism and imperial
ism.

Aquinaldo's Financial Support.

The support of an army of 20 900 men, or
of time, necessarily involves a very con-
siderable expenditure. Even If that army
could find food supplies in the country in
which it operates-and Aguinaldo cannot
the cost of ammunition and medicines and
transportation would be considerable And
it has long been a query as to the source
of Aguinaldo's war income. Some evidence
is coming out, and this evidence goes to
show that the sugar and hemp trusts of the
islands, both strong and rich, are probably
supplying the needful money, and are back
ing up the willy Filipinos.
These spectators want a complete mo-
nopoly. They want to dictate alike to pro-
ducers and consumers the terms of trade
The leaders of both trades are men skilled
in large operations, and they are as grasp
ing and ambitious as they are skllful and
INSCRIPTIONS.
1t is not believed that these spectators
and traders are actually organized in
Standard Oil fashion. What is meant is,
that all the traders in sugar and hemp are
combined-all understand each other, and
all are working in common with a common
object in view. That common object Is the
control of the trade, both inlarfd and ex-
port. These traders are as a rule Chinese.
There are some Spaniards among them

War to the knife!

Man in his rags and dirt and cold
Fighting for life.
Envy and wealth and pride and hate;
The sullen poor, the sordid great
When shall 1t cease?
When shall the starved forget the full
Or cease to wrtthe beneath his rule,
And give US peace?
When shall the naked, meek pass by
The over-clad nor cast his eye
With strong desire?
When shall the frozen sleep to die,
Or by the hedge of Dives lie,
Nor crave his fire?
When shall the worm that pride has
spurned
And to the dust has careless turned,
Not turn again?
When shall the bruised lie calm and meek.
The smitten turn his other cheek,
To ease his pain?
When shall the low forget to hate
His neighbor of high estate
Who frowns above?
Naked in prison. CALLED with chains,
A stranger, thirsting, torn with pains,
When shall he love?

Give free, nor curse him for a tax

The erring guide the lost one find,
The hungry feed.
Hast money, give; hast art, then use;
Hast power, protect, and not abuse;
Hast neither, pray.

Praise, suffer, labor pray and wait.

And satisfy his hearts desire;
Yea, give him Love.

UNIFORM SCHOOL BOOKS

From the Wetumpka Herald
With almost ever one of the candidates
for governor cursing the school book trusts,
it is quite likely that some legislation look
ing to tho adoption of a system of uniform
school books will be passed by the next
general assembly, and that a maximum
price to be paid for the books will be fixed.
There is no doubt that the parents of Ala
bama are forced to pay two or three times
the value of the school books they buy, and
something should be done to. stop this
wholesale robbery of the people of this
state by the book combines and trusts.
The children of Alabama should be given
an opportunity to get an education in the
public schools, and If the price of the books
they use are put at a price they are unable
to pay they are robbed of the chance to
get an education provided for them by the
state

A DIPLOMATIC POET

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
An eastern poet has penned some rhymes
that show he is born diplomat. Here is
a sample verse:
And the goldenrod dreops down it's head
In sullenness of despair;
For its splendor that famed is outshone
and shamed
BY the gold of Evadne's hair!
If that isn't neat and unobjectionable
way of calling a girl red-headed we don't
know what is.

Her Income Not "A Large One

Much has been said of the brides wealth.
Her only income is derived from the large
residence at the northwest corner of * and
Sixteenth streets, which was given to her
by her father. Formerly the house was
leased for the sum of 5000 year, but
since it has been enlarged and leased by
the present United States ambassador to
Italy, General Draper, subsequently former
Secretary Alger, and its present occupant
Secretary Hitchcock, it has brought $4,000,
the salary of a cabinet officer.
Mrs. Dewey has no income aside from
this, as the balance of the Mclean estate is
in the name of Mrs. Washington Mclean,
her mother.
Mrs. Ludlow, wife of Rear Admiral Nicoll
Ludlow, U. S. N, sister of Mrs. Dewey, who
in many respects closely resembles her, re-
ceived from her father the old Mclean
mansion, overlooking Lafayette square,
where she and her husband are now re-
siding.
