WAR IN SOUTH AFRICA.
Engiishmen Believe Roberts Will BE In
Pretoria In wO Months.

Pretoria In wo Months.
Members of the house of commons
were freely betting in the lobbies last
evening that Lord Roberts would he
in Pretoria in two months, says a Lon
don dispatch of Friday morning. The
ministeriaists are building confident
hopes upon the comprehensive plans
he has communicated TO the war Office.
Predictions are definitely made he will
enter Kroonstad next Monday, and it
is believed that his advance is proba
bly, already reconnoitering the vicinity
of Ventersburg, where the hill coun-
try begins again. Beyond Kroonstad
is an intricate and difficult country,
and if the Beers should elect to fight
it is possible they could check the pro-
gress of the British until Roberts
numerous cavalry had had time to ride
around their flank and threaten their
rear.
From $4,000 to 10000 is the highest
estimate of the Beers under the per-
sonal command of General Botha, who
is said TO have 46 guns. General Botha
and General Dewet are reported to
have quarreled.
Lord Roberts is pressing hard after
this force with $4,000 men and 40
guns, and 10000 more men are easily
available.
President Steyn with 10000 men is
reported to have been east of Thaba
N'Chu yesterday Thursday noon, and
d battle was then imminent. The ad-
vance troops of General Rumble and
General Bradant were being fired on.

dated Thursday, General Buffers army

attended by large number of promi-

of the south, will 60 on record as an
event of unusual significance. Some
great speeches were made, and in them
were utterances that are likely to re.

near future. Mayor Alfred M. Wad'

the white supremacy revolution in his
city, was one of the principal speakers.
He argued for the repeal or material
modification of the Fifteenth amend

address, in which he argued that sep

- The frequent friction over COM
pulsory vaccination in different parts
of the country is evidently due to
doubts on the part of the people as to
the character of the prevailing small
pox epidemic. While there have been
reported number Of cases Of deaths
from vaccination in different parts of
the country during the past few years,
there is yet to be reported the first au-
thenticated case of death in this Sec
tion from smallpox. People are not
much afraid Of the kind Of smallpox
that does not kill; but if the disease
were of the killing kind, compulsory
vaccination would be much less diff.

- Secret sessions of the senate seem
to be failure. They are practically
impossible, and the senate itself is cog
infant of that fact. On the strength
of statements made by Senator Tillman
on Tuesday, with reference to the dis
covery of a new projectile capable of
penetrating the best armor yet manu-.
featured, the senate went into secret
session on Wednesday for the purpose
of further discussing the armor plate
question. In the meantime, however,
the newspapers got hold of the secret
of the new projectile and made it pub
lie. 1t seems that the discovery is a
very simple one. An ordinary steel
solid shot with soft steel cap on the
end does the execution that has hereto.
fore been impossible to such projectiles
without the soft caps. 1t has been
found that with such projectiles, under
favorable circumstances, the very finest
armor yet manufactured may be
pierced with comparative ease. Upon
realizing that there was no longer
anything to conceal, the senate resum.
ed the consideration of the armour
plate question in open session, and
now it looks very much like the gov.
erDment is going to refuse to longer
submit to the extortion ofprivate man
ufacturers and begin the making OF
armor plate plate for itself in plant
of its own.

Bourke Cochran, the famous New

years ago. He is now in Montgomery
in attendance on the race conference,
and when asked on Thursday night as
to whether he will support Bryan this
year, said:
"That depends, I say frankly, upon
the Kansas City platform and the spirit
in which it is submitted to the Ameri,
can people. If that platform is only
reiteration of the platform of 1896,
shall not support it or the nominee. /
am unalterably opposed to the McKin'
ley policy toward our new possessions
oppose militarism. oppose imperi'
alism. I oppose trusts. If the plat
form takes decided stand in opposing
these questions and the spirit is in
favor of making them predominant,
shall support it and do all l can in
my state for the ticket. Otherwise
will not. I consider these questions

ey plank, if it must, can remain the
same as in 1897, because it is impossi

so many candidates for the offices who
are obliged to be disappointed and

A. r. PESRBYTERY.

The following account of the pro-
ceedings of the First presbytery of the
Associate Reformed church, in session
at Pisgah this week, is from the Gas
tonia Gazette of Thursday:
The First presbytery of the Asso
ciate Reformed church met at Pisgah
at II o'clock Monday morning. 1t
opened with a sermon by the retiring
moderator, Rev. ]. L. Oates. After the
sermon presbytery was constituted by
prayer. The acting moderator, Rev
J. E. Johnson, then took bis seat and
appointed the various committees.
The session, in the afternoon, com
pleted several matters of Importance.
Rev. w. C. Ewart reported the organi'
zaton of new church at Pleasant
Hill, Lancaster county, which is to be
supplied by Rev. J. NJ. White. This
church will be grouped with Unity
and Gill's Creek. The following other
churches were grouped in different
parts of the presbytery The churches
Of Taylorsville, Mooresville and Hid
denite are to be supplied by Rev. E.
F. Griffith. Amity, Elk Shoals and
Sterling were grouped under the
charge of Rev. R. c. Davidson. Hun
tersyiIle and Gilead are to be supplied
by Rev. J. NJ. Bigham, June and July.
Several young preachers then deliv'
cred trial sermons for license. The
presbytery expressed itself as being
pleased with the efforts of the young
men. Tuesday morning at II O'Clock
it was decided to hear the trial SER
mons of two young preachers-Rev.
Ira B. Caldwell and Rev. Louis Hick-
man.
Rev. J. c. Galloway, chairman of
the board of home missions, stated
that the heirs of the property at All

presbytery, to be used for educational
purposes, and that no rent, save keep
ing the buildings in repair, would be

- For the purposes of keeping such
cranks as G. Walt Whitman out of the
gubernatorial race, it might be good
idea for the State Democratic conven.
tion to amend the party constitution
so as to provide that no candidacy
shall be recognized except upon a
petition containing the names of a
given number of Democratic voters
from each county, or the state at large.
This would be no hardship on any
man, nor would it seriously inconven-

a possible chance of being se'"f I'd as
the party nominee.-""'"

needs of the people and capable of
making first rate representative.
We feel pretty well satisfied that he
would be acceptable to the people gen.
orally, and have not the slightest doubt
that if he would consent TO become a
candidate, he would at least receive a
flattering vote. Why not represent
York county in the general assembly,

- People keep asking whether it
should be spelled Porto Rico or Puerto
Rico. The Spaniards spelt it with a
"u," and the board of geographical
names, appointed by the United States
to decide disputes in spell

Spanish style; but Senator Foraker's
bill establishing civil government on
that island provides that the official
spelling shall be Porto Rico.

NEGLECTED. BATTLE-GROUND.

THE county chaingang has been
working for several days on those ter
rible rough roads in the vicinity of
Kings Mountain battle-ground, and
today, probably, is working on the bat
tleground itself. At least such is the
programme that Supervisor Culp out.
lined ><ot the reporter several days ago.
VAS has been previously noted in The
ENQUIRER, the hill on which the bat
tie of Kings Mountain was fought,
aud which was nicely cleared of un-
dergrowth 10 1SS0-20 years ago-has
again become 80 covered that even
the tall monument that was erected
at that time cannot be seen for dis.
tance of more than a few hundred
yards. Many visit to the battle
ground, of late, have been painfully
impressed with the rough, unkept ap-
pearance of the whole vicinity, and
not a few of them have made repres-
entations to the county board of COM
missioners in the hope that that body
would take it upon itself to do some-
thing; but having no specific authori-
ty to use the chaingapg for such pur-
pose, nothing has been done until now.
Inasmuch as the chaingang is close
in the vicinity, Supervisor Culp de-
cided the other day that he would take
the responsibility of improving the
situation at least little, and he in
structed that about half acre of un-
dergrowth be cleared off Immediately
around the monument. The work will
pro badly be done during today and
M onday.
