NEW YORK. Oct. .9.-The evacuation
Of Cuba by the United States is not
likely to take place quite SO soon as has
been anticipated III some quarters. says
. Washington dispatch TO The Journal
of Commerce. The withdrawal Of the
American troops will not take place III
any event until some form OF domestic
government has been established aud
is no. likely to be ordered by the exec.
utive department Of the government
without the authority Of congress. The
Cuban constitutional con nvention. which
meets III November. is i,kely TO be III
session several months-probably much
longer than after the adjournment OF
the coming session Of congress on
March /, 1901. The new congress, to
bo elected on Nov. &. next. will not
meet in regular session until December,
1901. and will hardly do any important
business until the spring OF 1902. by
that time representatives OF the new
Cuban republic may be ready to demon.
stratc to the appropriate committees OF
congress- that they have government
completely organized and capable OF
maintaining treaty obligations with
other powers.

REPORT ON TEMPERANCE.

The Rock Hill District conference,
in session at Hickory Grove last week,
on Friday, adopted the following re-
port of the committee on temperance :
The M. E. Church, South, has al
ways taken strong grounds on the sub.
ject of temperance. Her legislation
on this subject is sufficient and in full
harmony with the teachings of Gods
word. If our members respect and
observe this legislation, drinking and
drunkenness will be banished from us,
and our church will be entirely free
from anv responsibility in the liquor
traffic. Therefore, be it resolved:
l. That we urge all members to OBJ
serve the legislation of the church as
contained in chapter of the Disci,
pline, realizing that the church is the
"light of the world" and is not to con-
suit popular opinion in dealing with
men and measures but the plain teach
ing of Gods word is to be her guide.
2. That recognizing that the liquor
traffic in any form is an enemy to the
church, home and citizenship of the
state, we record our relentless oppo'
sition to it.
8. That all right thinking men re,
cognize that Christian men and wo'
men, and especially Christian minis
tiers, should oppose this evil of the
ages, we will consistently do so in the
future as we have done in the past. By
our record we are willing to stand
We cannot be driven from it by the
baseless charges of an "unholy alli,
ance with barkeepers." We are the
true allies of this uncompromising de-
claration of Gods word: "Woe unto
him that giveth his. neighbor drink,
that puttest thy bottle to him, and
makest him drunken ALSO" Let all
men know this has ever been, and al
ways will be, our platform.

SENATOR TILLMAN told the Chero-
kee people that theirs was the soberest
crowd he had seen; but that over at
Prohibition York he had seen half a
dozen drunk men. There were half a
dozen drunk men in Yorkville and
perhaps more. Several of them tried
to hug the senator. But if there is
any way to get at the facts, we wager 10
cents to a gingercake, that there were
10 drunk men at the Cherokee meet
ing where there was one at Yorkville.
Either that, or the Gaffney dispensary
was closed, and surely that was not
proper under the peculiar circum-
stances. 1t would look too much like
prohibition.

AN experienced campaigner says
that the interference Of Senator Till
man in the gubernatorial fight, will
either elect or defeat Colonel Hoyt
He means that the effect will be very
marked; but is unable to say whether
the senator's influence will be positive
or negative. This opinion may be
correct; but so far as we are able to
determine, we do not believe Senator
Tillman's speech at Yorkville affects
the situation one way or the other.

as soon as the Negro appeared,
and continued to fire shots into his
body after he had fallen. His body
was literally shot to pieces. The
mob wanted to burn the Negro and
would have done so had it not been for
the arrival of a strong force of police.
During the period from Monday until
Friday, Charles killed six men, and
the mob killed or wounded more than
a dozen Negroes. BY Saturday morn-
ing reasonable quiet had been restored.

The idea that General Ellison Capers

Saturday is too absurd to contemplate.

SENATOR TILLMAN says that if the
preachers come down from their pull
pits to mix in politics, they must ex-
pect to get knocks from the politicians.
That is correct and also, when Sena-
tor Tillman mixes in fight that is of no
special concern to him, he must ex-
pect the resentment of those upon
whose toes be steps. The senator
surely understands the application of
the rule that works both ways.

Tillman and Hickson.

At Gaffney, on Monday, says August
Kohn, Tillman took up his spat with
the preachers and insisted on every
thing he had said and reiterated that
there was the "alliance," willing or
unwilling, between the barkeepers and
ministers. He and Rev. F. G. Hickson
had spat. Mr.. Hickson asked wheth
er Tillmam believed the preachers and
barkeepers were in alliance. Tillman
explained and said: "You and the
whisky men are fighting together
that's all, l say" Mr.. Hickson insis-
ted that he opposed the sale of liquor.
Tillman replied, "and so wree the bar
keepers for present purposes"

Tillman is very frank in the express
sion of his views on this subject, as he
is on all others, and when you accuse
him of Inconsistency he declares that
the Democratic platform was not meant
for the Negro race any more than the
Declaration of Independence.
- The city of New Orleans was the
scene of bloody race riot during last
week. The trouble commenced Mon.
day and was started by the murder of
Police Captain Day and Officer Lamb,
by desperate Negro named Robert
Charles. Charles made his escape and
pretty soon mob collected to search
for him. The police board offered
500 for the body of Charles, dead or
alive. The mob began to shoot at
Negroes wherever they were to be
seen. The city swore in 1000 extra
policemen from among the citizens.
Charles was at last located in two
story house. Several policemen and a
TO arrest him. He began firing at
the officers from an open window with
a Winchester. He killed policeman
and civilian dead, and mortally
wounded another policeman. The
wounded policeman called for a priest
to administer extreme JUNCTION. a
priest, accompanied by a boy, went
to the dying man. The Negro
killed the boy and shot at the
priest, but missed. The priest
remained with the dying man un-
til he had completed his sad mis-
sion. While this was going on, of,
fcers set the house, in which the Ne
gro was entrenched, on fire, and drove
him out. The mob commenced firing

THE FAMINE IN INDIA

of their gods, calmly saw starvation
approaching, and made little or no eff
fort to avoid it. They have learned
secret of living upon nothing, but
when that nothing fails them it is the
old, old story of famine and plague and
want. Millions of these people live
upon 1 cent a day. But they are SO
thickly settled that they swarm over
the plains of India like insects, and
where in other countries one Or two
might die of want a million must suffer
here. Unreasoning apathy for modern
farming implements handicaps the ma
tive in his farming, and his indiffer-
ence and fatalism heighten the diff
culties Of the A~nglo-Saxon reformers
who have been laboring for the uplift-
ing of the black in that country. AL
though their sufferings are beyond
imagining, they accept plague and
famine without stirring a hand. Even
the wealthy rajah Of a famine district
will squander a fortune for his person
al qualification with a thousand moth
ers starving miserably outside his pal
ace walls. The mob does not stone
those walls, but takes what it can pick
up and accepts its sufferings as the
gift of the gods. The English govern
ment has done a great deal to mitigate
their sufferings, and gigantic organized
charities have been set in operation
time and time again. The death rate,
consequently, has been somewhat re-
duced, but the danger will not be en-
tirely obviated until enormous irriga-
ton works are established throughout
central India for the husbanding of the
uncertain rainfall of that sun-parched
country. But this, ever though the
money for such works were forthcom-
ing, would take many years.
The Dupuyer acantha. [volume] (Dupuyer, Mont.) 1894-1904, 1900-07-05

Unhappy India is once more with
ing in the throes Of famine. Had Eng
land needed the advice of that little
hero who is now leading her troops in
South Africa there might have been no
starving millions in the Indian empire
at the present time.
Ten years ago, when Lord Roberts
was the military administrator of the
great Asiatic colony of England, he
foresaw the ever-threatening danger of
a failure of the food supply among
those teeming millions of blacks and
suggested a means of o~bviating, or at
least diminishing. such a danger.
The plan Roberts suggested was for
the government to establish a large
number of emergency hospitals and
food distributing depots. The hospitals
were called for because pestilence al
ways walked in the wake of famine.
Although Roberts was at the time one
