them and solve the problem of how best fto' govern them Their acquisition he regards as hindrance to our "open-
 door' policy, and large standing army will be required there. Nevertheless, though holding them, the United States
 must continue to adhere to it's tradition al policy of on-interference with the internal affairs and politics of old-world nations Neither must we abandon an iota of the Monroe doctrine. He be- lieves that, situated as we now are in
 regard to our Oriental possessions, we have drifted into an "ertangling all-
 ance' at last with an old-world power, and that one, fortunately, Great Britain, the power most formidable as foe and most effective as a friend. But the United States has come out of it's shell Iand naturally and properly ceased to be hermit among nations There are many other striking features in MT. Ol- ney's very able and strong article.
 MT. Olney says he is out of politics. He speaks his mind clearly and forcibly, and his article handicaps him at once with the Democrats as a possible candi- date for the presidency. But probably that fact does not worry him. In his conclusion he sees in our new situation the certainty of an enlargement of the nations mental and moral vision and no cause for any decline of the old ster ling American patriotism. He rejoices in this fact and sees no need of any alarm for the old star spangled banner, if wisdom prevails in steering the ship of state.

vival. Some are genuine, others are mere effects, and already there are so many varieties that new notions In this line are' in demand. Pictured here Is a striking use of this finish. The goods of skirts and jacket was red cloth and the plaid portions showed red, white and yellow. Other trimming came in folds of white cloth. Most of the peasant belts stand by themselves and this idea of matching them closely to the gowns other trimming is unusual.
 Petticoats with stockinet tops and silk founces from the knee are an inno- vation that deserves popularity. They hold their place, they wear ae silk can not, give all the needed crisp effect about the foot and the swish that wo- men refuse to do without. Print petti- coats and those of gingham are being made up more carefully than ever and it seems as if the summer girl is at last going to realize that coored wash goods not silk, is the proper wear for summer petticoats under wash gowns. The white skirt is again in favor and there are women who ineist on readapting theirs into street and general city use. This Is a mistake, but for wear with the white gowns of next summer nothing is pret- tier or daintier than white skirt.

 The Pinehurst tea is not popular with people who are accustomed to drinking the ordinary tea that Is sold at the gro ceries, because it is absolutely pure, while the imported article is adultera- ted in order to satisfy the vitiated taste of the American consumer; butt after little time a tea-drnlser becomes ac- customed to the smooth, delicate flavor of the pure tea and will drink no other
 Dr. Shepard believes that tea can be grown in many parts of the south, wherever the climate is not too severe, or more severe than in South Carolina. The soil should be moist, light and po- rous, rich in decomposed organic mat ter, but free from stagnant water, and in order that the gardens may not suf- fer from lack of moisture, facilities for irrigation should be provided Secreta- ry Wilson agrees with Dr. Shepard that the results of the experiments at Sum- merville have opened a new and impor- tant industry for the south, and he hopes that there will be sufficient enter prise not only in South Carolina, but in other sections to extend it for large scale.-W.

RESPONSTFE.

President McKinley's utterances at the Ohio banquet regarding imperial ism strike a responsive chord in the popular heart and receive general praise. The New York Tribune re- marks: Tt is doubtful if more effect i've speech will be made i'll the coming campaign" And "The best of the Pres ident's brief address was that in every line and word he showed a clearer com prehension of his duty and it's limits than his critics. He holds it a duty to exercise power over the new pos ment of the United States, but for the uplifting, enfranchisement and lasting benefit of the inhabitants of those pos sessions"
 The New York Times entities his speech ''brave words" and says there is little doubt that the Presidents sen timents are shared by great part of the American people" "The President declared that the war was concluded without suspicion of unworthy mo- tive or practice or purpose on our part, and with fadeless honor to our arms He pointed to the grave trials and re- sponsbilities' the close of the war had brought to us. He asserted that no
  phrase or catchword can conceal the sacred obligation it involves The problem before the people must be so- berly settled in justice and in good conscience In his closing passage he announced: The liberators will never become the oppressors A self-governed people will never permit despotism in any Government which they foster and defend.' 1t is not possible that 75,000,- 900 American freemen are unable to es- tablish liberty and justice and good government in our new possessions
 The Times then criticises the Presi- dent regarding the Porto Rican tariff lSSuG anu uOpcS lIldI lIlc IllSu pui pOSG of the President will not be defeated or left open to suspicion by substantial contrast between profession and per- forniance.
 The New York Mail and Express re- marks: President McKinleys speech was thoroughly characteristic of the man in it's patriotic fervor, and candid and convincing in it's discussion of poli- cies he has pursued and will continue to advocate"
 The New York Sun: MT. McKin- leys remarks were admirable in tenn per and felicitous in almost every phrase. The President has demonstrat- ed on many occasions his power of graceful and convincing oratory. When ever he takes occasion to speak direct ly to the people of the broader princi- pies underlying his policy, and of the ideas and hopes that animate his execu- tive labors, he generally succeeds in to himself minds and hearts"

OUR SHIP OF STATE.

Richard Olney has for some years
 held prominent and honored place in
 the estimation of the American people,
 regardless of politics, and as a leading lawyer and a man hitherto regarded as a possible Democratic candidate for the presidency, his utterances on "The Growth of Our Foreign Policy" in the Atlantic Monthly are entitled to, and are receiving, a great deal of attention, MT. Olney won the attention of the na- tion when by his prompt and energetic action as Attorney General of the Unit ed States mob violence in Chicago, which had assumed frightful propor- tions, was suppressed by the United States government, the State authori- ties being unable or unwilling to cope with 1t. MT. Olney surprises the Dern- ocrats, for with his characteristic force and ghtforwardness he declares himself an out and out expansionist, particul arly as regards the West Indies. MT. Olney always expresses himself clearly, and courageously states his opinions. He Is glad that events have nut an end to this nations long period of international isolation and lim- itation to the affairs of the American continent. Our war with Spain merely precipitated this new departure. The change had long been brewing. He be- leves that Cuba should be ours out and out-a part of our territory without reservation. Cuba should be annexed to the United States as the best thing for both countries. He regrets that we have the Philippines "to have and to hold,''' regarding them as a huge incu- bus unnecessarily taken upon ourselves. A coaling station and an adequate ma val base there would have been suffi- cient. But now the islands are ours; we cannot back down, but must retain
