THE MOTHER or TRUSTS.

Not long before the present campaign
began Mr.. Havemeyer. the president
of the sugar trust, said ina the pro-
tectiye tariff was the mother OF trusts,
and the SENTINEL at the time took
occasion to inform Mr.. Havemeyer that
he was exactly right. The shutting
out of foreign competition is the only
thing that has made the gigantic
trusts OF the present day possible. 1t
is interesting to note how some of our
erstwhile infant industries, for whose
benefit a robber tariff Is sustained,
are selling goods across the ocean
cheaper than We can get them FOR
right here in Grenada or 10 New York
CITY. That brilliant son Of Tennessee,
VIM. H. Carroll, who is making the
race for congress in the Memphis Dis
trict, in a recent speech took the
trouble to show the great difference
between 1.-THE selling price of various
articles here and in England, and the
figures are surprising, and they demon
strate also that the American people
love to be duped, humbugged and
robbed. When Imperialism, sound
money and the thousand and n
transitory and ephemcral issues of the
have been settled or forgotten,
the old tariff question, like the ghost
OF Banquo, will return to be the
Nemesis of plutocracy and greed, which
have the government admins
for the few and against the many.

from a trip to Chicago where he went
to drive the malaria out OF his system.
He was admitted 10 the inner and

Democratic success are very bright
The Governor says that Chicago will
give Bryan a majority so large tina

POLL TAX ~DELINQUENTS.
Annual Report OF state Auditor Reveals
DeplorabIe Condition.

Annual Report or state Auditor Reveals
Depiorabie Condition.
State Auditor Cole has just completed
the poll tax feature of his annual report,
showing that during the last year the
sum OF $3.50, 074, IL was collected in polls
in the State and deducted from the
school fund in the various counties.
This is an increase OF lei s., 200 as
compared with the collections for the
fiscal year ending September 30th,
1899. The number of polls assessed
was 273,S77, and II all polls thus shown
to be due had heel collected the States
revenue from this source would have
been S53l, 2@1.3S, or almost twice the
amount collected, the exact difference
being 1881, 247 .26.
In other words fifty per cent Of the
people who were assessed with "a poll
tax in 1899 did not settle their obliga-
ton. AS the payment of this tax is a
prerequisite to voting in Mississippi,
one-halt Of the voting population of the
State is DISTINGUISHED from this cause
alone.
The new law requiring the sheriffs
OF the counties TO publish the names OF
all poll tax delinquents goes into effect
with the collection Of taxes this year,
and it is the general belief hat it will
act as a sharp stimulus in the way Of
swelling revenues from this source.
The first publication of delinquents,
according TO the new law, will be made
on the first OF Adjudication Ledger.

Lord Roberts reports to the War Office

"Harrismith surrendered on Aug. 4. The

Kitchener is with the force south of the

Darlington, who was on the way to Glands
river. Ian Hamilton. who reached Rusten-

day the firing seems more distant, which
looks as If the Glands river garrison had
been relieved and was retiring towards

FORT WAYNE, Ind, Aug. 1.-TWO thou
sand persons attended the Republican day
exercises at Island Park Assembly. Gov.
Taylor, of Kentucky, and Representative
James Watson. of the Sixth district. were
the speakers of the day. The morning
programme miscarried, owing 10 a com
bination of untoward circumstances. r.
Is. Hanna, Twelfth district candidate for
representative in Congress. missed his
train. and other speakers were unable to
be present. Governor Taylor was enthusi-
astically greeted. and his speech was
given the closest attention. He dwelt up
on the issues of the day. giving his atten-
ton to the Democratic efforts to shift at
tention from free silver, which, he de-
ciared. was the real issue. TO the bugaboo
of Imperialism. which. he said, no Demo-
crat was able TO define. The people have
had their lesson" he said. land they will
not recede from the position they took i'm
1896. Prosperity is the g~randest object les
son. and the intelligence of the American
people is a guaranty against their sue
cumbing to the suspicious of a
desperate Democracy"
Mr. Taylor referred briefly to the troubles
In Kentucky, and said that Bryan would
not receive the vote of any State whose
people loved fair governments, free bal
lots and peaceful existence. 'sIf you had
seen what 1 have SEEN" he continued. you
might be %pardOned for praying that you
might never gaze upon another Democrat"
Representative Watson devoted himself
Chiefly to the question of expansion. and
showed clearly the falsity OF the Demo-
cratic position and the consistency of Re-
publican principles with the Constitution.

The correspondent of the Associated

the Yang-Tse Kiang be left open for

further learns that Japan. on this same

already sought and found the friendship OF
Berlin.

CRITICISED BY A WOMAN
MEDICAL SERVICE AT MANILA SAID
TO BE INADEQUATE.
Letter from Miss Margaret Aston
Chanler Received by the
War Department.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.--Miss Margaret
warded from Manila to the secretary of
war a severe criticism of the army's medi-
cal system I'm the Philippines, alleging that
there is a lack of surgeons, a lack of nurses
and a lack of medical supplies. including
such articles as sheets, and asking that
she be allowed five hundred sheets for
emergency distribution a copy of Miss
CHAMBERS criticism has been forwarded TO
Mrs. Cowles, the sister of Governor Roose-
Welt, and to several officials and individuals
OF prominence.
Secretary Root referred Miss CHAMBERS
letter to Surgeon General Sternberg, who
has been making a thorough inquiry into
the various points raised. He has COM
pleted and to-day submitted to Mr.. Root,
what is regarded as a complete refutation
CT the arraignment of the medical service
in general, and OF the specific points of ar
raignment made by Miss Chanler.
The correspondence has not been given
out, but it is understood to be of rather
spirited character. From the standpoint Of
the medical officials here, Miss CHAMBERS
criticism loses much of its force from the
ldCl lldl II WdS WIIllcH Ouly tWO udyS al
ter she arrived at Manila. 1t is said this
shows the lack of that mature judgment
and knowledge of fact which long observa-
ton would have given The records of the
War Department nave been brought for
ward to show that many of Miss Chanler's
specific charges lack ground. TIL records
are said to disclose repeated kilograms from
General ~Sternberg to the. authorities at Ma
nila asking them to state how many nur-
ses and doctors they required, and TO give
early notice of their requirements, in or
der that all needs might be promptly met.
1t is said that practically the same show
ing was made as to supplies. Miss Chan
ler's specific criticism on the lack of sheets
and her appeal for 500 sheets to meet press
ing needs, is considered unaccountable, in
view CT the almost lavish provisions which
are said to have been made.
Secretary Roots disposition of Miss Chan
lers charges has not been made known, as
he now has before him the original letter
from Manila and Surgeon-General Stern
berg's comprehensive ~rejoinder.

Dollar LOan in America.

LONDON, Aug. I'm the House of Com
mons to-day Benjamin Louis Cohn, Con-
sentative for the eastern division of Is
lington, asked the chancellor of the ex-
chequer, Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, the rea-
son for the early closing or subscriptions
for exchequer bonds.
In substance the chancellor said: when
/ made the usual confidential inquiries to
ascertain whether the proposed terms were
likely to be attractive l received such very
moderate encouragement that i accepted
an offer already made to me by a leading
Anglo-American house in London to place
half the issue in the United States on the
terms / had decided to offer Ii here. This
part of the issue was already taken when
the loan was issued in Great Britain
In conclusion the chancellor of the ex-
chequer said: II regret any d~isappoint-
ment caused by the early closing of the
lists. but L hope it may to some extent
be mitigated by consideration of the very
important points / have just mentioned -
Last Thursday, the chancellor said. the
reserve of the Bank of England stood at
the lowest for years. and he was advised
that great relief might be afforded here
by the movement OF gold from the United
States If a large part of this loan OF elO.-
0O0,0 900 was taken there.
