Fhe great ana good scape- goat ad-
minlstratiOn ut Washington has
slaughtered another kid to atone for
the sins of its people, the carpet -bag-
gers in the imperial domain of William
|. This time it is the slick scoundrel
Necley, of the post office departmental
Cuba. Administration officials are en-
deavoring to create the impression that
the overconfident Mr.. Rathbonc was so
trustful of his employee, Ncely, that
he entrusted him to destroy large
sum of old issue postage stamps and
would dismiss the incident as an un-
fortunate case of confidence Queering.
The people refuse to let tho incident
close in this way, however, in view Of
the fame of Mr.. Rathbone rs q shrewd
and watchful secret service man; and
they will not allow themselves to be
hoodwinked into believing that with
his experience he was 80 trustful of
any man with human instincts that
such peculations could continue longer
than month without his suspicious
being aroused, especially since the
grounds for suspicion were 80 strong.
The pest ofice receipts since that
time dwindled from $4,000 month
to $4,000 q month, and yet we are
asked to believe that Director Rath-
bone suspected nothing wrong. In
the final expose of this dirty business,
it will be found that "thereare Others"
and unless the facts are closely guard
cd by the sheetering wing of the ad-
ministration, we predict that Director
Rathbone's feigned innocence and un-
suspecting nature will have tho calcium
light thrown on it that will take him
from the title role of an unsophistica-
ted innocent abroad to knowing,
conniving treasury loUte' for revenue
only. They may succeed in silencing
Neeley and his associates by promises
of leniency and thereby save the into
gritty of the party and its lieeiers, but
the people will hold the administra-
tion severely responsible for paying its
political debts to unscrupulous lieu
tenants by appointing them to positions
of trust and honor in n far off depend

Resistance to the authority of the
United States in the Philippine Is
lands seems to be increasing instead of
diminishing. 1t is probably more gen.
eral and more determined now than
ever before. Apprehension of MI up
rising of the 100000 Filipinos in Manila
is very strongly felt, and there are no
signs Of pacitication of the people In
any of the islands. Imperialism has
put tough and bloody job on Uncle
Sam's hands.

We are very much gratifled to know
that Rev. w. T. Capers has proposed
the maintenance of an infirlnary and
home for the homeless in this city, and
that the suggestion is meeting with
much favor wherever it has been con-
sidered. AS he truly says, city of
1000 inhabitants without single char
liable institution should lose no time
in doing something in the line of tan
gible and organized charity work. AS
yet no definite plan has been presented,
but the suggestion is considered prac-
ticable from financial point of view,
and steps will be taken in the near fu-
ture to insure the completion of the
work. This is cause deserving of
liberal contribution, and philanthr opic
interest and legacy. The city is stead
lily growing, and there is much suffer-
ing and distress which individual chari-
tv fails to alleviate. During the rough
winter months, it becomes n tax on
such effort to respond to oil the pitiful
appeals, granting that they are all de-
serving. By organized charity, the
difficulties and doubts attending inli-
vidual charity are reduced to mini
mum, so that there are remote possi-
+ bilities of imposition. Anderson's
commercial spirit is well known; if we
fail to do we'll nnr part hJJ Cur unfor-
tunate citizens, those who know us as
a prosperous commercial people will
look upon us with scOrnful eyes, and
we will become a reproach wherever
our name is heard. The spirit of char
ity: is one of the redeeming graces of
1, ,Andersonians. They never fail to re-
spond to the cry for help, and while
many of us ara already contributing to
the support Of charitable institutions
in other parts OF tho State, those same
cVhtribntioEss duplicated at home will
! make none Of ns the poorer. Let the
good work begin at once

The city of Charlotte, one of the
most thriving cities of the South, has,
through its Board Of Trade, appointed
n committee to aid the census cnumcr
atOrs in their work to determine the
correct population of the city and to
secure fair basis Of representation in
Congress. The present census being
under the supervision Of the Republi-
cans will, as far us possible, discount
the population Of Southern Districts to
further the political ends of that party.
1t is incumbent then upon all cities and
towns, aside from mere political rea-
sons, for business reasons also, to see
that an absolutely fair and liberal
count of actual residents is had in the
coming census. There is no reason to
doubt that Anderson will have an alb
solutcly fair census, but there are IL
great many of her citizens who are not
at home during the month Of June, but
who are actual and nominal residents
of the city. There should be some
means of insurng the inclusion of
such abseDtees in the count in order
that the census may be as complete rs
possible, and we would recommend
that the Board Of Trade appoint com
mittcc on census to assist the cnumer-
atOrs in this particular.
II is TO be regretted that Col. H. w
YOumans attempted to stir up the fnc
tiOnal cmbcrs in the State Convention
last week by his bitter and untimcly
attack upon Senator Tillman. He
must have known that there was moth
ing to gain by such Il course, and that
on the contrary much was ut stake.
Col. Y0umans has been prominently
mentioned III connection with Senate
rial honors as the successor of Senator
Tillman, and he naturally felt that he
could not consistently allow the ell
d0rscmcnt of his antagonists official
record to go unchallenged. This could
have been done in manner better
creditable to the fine sense and discre-
tiOn OF Col. Youmans by simple neg
.ative vote, which would have been,
more effective and more satisfactory
from his point Of view than the result
of the plan us he executed it. Senator
Tillman undoubtedly represents hie
party on the vital issues Of the day in
national politics, whatever may have
been his political antecedents, and if q
fight is made against him it must be
waged along other lines than his course
in tho Senate. We hold Col. Youmanf
in the very highest esteem, but candol
compels us to say that he has made &
great mistake.

Facilities for Handling Freight.

The remarkable progress being made
by the Lackawanna railroad i'm the
increase of facilities for handling traf-
fic is shown by the work accomplished
in it's Brooklyn freight terminal. It's
new freight terminal is located at
Wallabout Market, foot of Clymer
street, and is admirably adapted for
handling traffic to and from Brook
lyn, not only by reason of its proX-
unity to the Wallabout Market, but
on account of it's location being adja-
cent to a great many large and grow
ing manufacturing establishments.
The Improvements consist of an i'm
mense brick warehouse two stories in
height, with tracks running into il and
into its yard. and is complete in every
detail, with all of the most improved
up-to-date appliances for the rapid
and safe handling of freight promi-
nant among which are huge electric
elevators handling freight between
the different floors.
The daily capacity of this ware
house of seventy-fiva to one hun
dred cars within its walls is further
increased by a track delivery capacity
of ninety cars in the yards connected
with this terminal. At convenient
points in these yards, new and SUI
perior loading derricks. in addition TO
team and track scales, are located,
and, in fact, nothing has been over
looked which would inure to the bene-
fit of shippers patronizIng this ter

PARADER GOT INTO TROUBLE
Some One Hit Him in the Head with
q Stone.

William Dolphin, of Eynon street, a
miner who participated in yesterdays
parade, was struck in the back Of the
head with a stone, during a fracas
on I.acSawanna avenue yesterday af-

A jagged hole, an inch in diameter,
was cut in the scalp, but the injured
man was able to walk home after hav-
ing the wound dressed at the Lacka-
wanna hospital.
DOlphins assailant is not known.
The stone was thrown from the outer
edge of the crowd that had assem-
bled when Dolphin ard some Others
were having a hot wrangle over some
trivial matter.
