THE VISIT OF TIE ADMIRAL.

Savannah is glad of the opportunity 10
welcome and to entertain the Admiral of
the Navy From the day when the news Of
Commodore Deweys victory in Manila
Bay sped over cables, to be spread upon
bulletin boards to the eoger gaze of many
thousands. there has been no American
community more enthusiastic in its adj
miration, more sincere in its praise, than
Savannah. which was practically the first
city of the South TO invite him within her
gates upon his return as admiral. Sa-
vannah's invitation, borne by a delega-
ton. reached him in Washington along
with that from the metropolis OF the West;
ana though he could not come then, the
invitation is now responded to in advance
Of that of Chicago. Savannah may well
be proud of the fact that she is the first
city of the South to entertain him.
The city has already put on its gala
dress in honor of its famous visitor and
guest. The streets present sea of eo>
rlous color; the hearts of the people offer
an ocean OF welcome. Never has Savan-
nah entered into an undertaking like this
with more zeal and spirit; never planned
cess. The simple mention of her pro-
verbal hospitality is sufficient explana-
tion of what that means. The committee
to which was entrusted the arrangements
for the reception and entertainment of her
guest has forgotten nothing i'm its effort
to surround the occasion with all the well
come and enjoyment that can be crowded
into the brief space the Admiral will spend
in the Forest City.
The Admiral comes to-day. Until to-
morrow he will rest and Tuesday and
Wednesday ne and others will be Savan-
nahs honored guests. There will be no
grand naval parade" nor will the line
of soldiers to pass in review extend five
miles" But there will be quite an i'm
posing military display, participated in by
local and visiting companies. And all of
the hearty welcome will be extended glad
ly and freely. making the spirit of the
occasion the foundation of its pleasure.
Savannahians will remember with graft
fication the visit of the Admiral for a
double reason; that they were not only
enabled TO see the hero of Manila Bay,
who will rank In history with the great
men of the navy that was never de-
feated," but that they were able to be his
hosts, for even a brief period 1t is to he
hoped that the Admiral will take back
with him pleasant memories Of the
visit as it is quite sure he will leave be-
hind.

His Sarcasm.

"Bruddren and sistahs," sternly said
good old Parson Woolimon, after the col
lection had been taken up upon a recent
Sabbath morning. according to Harper's
Bazaar, before the hat was done parsed
l expounded the request dat de congrega-
ton contribute accawdin' to DER means,
and / sho expectorated dat yo' all would
chip in magnanimously. But now upon ex-
aminin' de collection, 1 finds that de con-
cocted amount contributed by de whole
entire posse OBJ yo' am only the significant
and pusillanimous sum of sixty-free cents.
And at dis junction dar amt no 'casion
for yoall to look at Brudder Slewfoot,
what done circumambulated de hat
around, in no such suspicious manner;
for, in de fust place, Brudder Slewfoot
amt dat kind OBJ a man, and, in the
second place, l done watched him like
hawk all de time ,muhself. No, sixty-free
cents was all dat was flung in: and 1 dess
wants to say dat. in my humble opinion
instead OBJ contributin accawdin to yo'
means, yo' all contributed accawdn' to
yo' manness. De choir will now favor
us wild DER regular righteousness"

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Greenville Is. c. News Dem.) says:
THE Hon. Dave Hill has f1uttered
strangely down from his lonesome roost
in the pinnacle of the tower of silence TO
make a few observa tions and see how the
world has gone since he left it, The Hon.
Dave is the same man for whom Ben
Tillman and the balance of The inspired
craftsmanship of South Carolina were
shouting for President in 1892. He was
seriously crippled then and was perma-
nently removed from earth by the concns-
sion of the Bryan and free silver boom in
1896. The last we remember hearing from
him was a discussion started in that year
as to how he voted or whether he voted at
all, and on that occasion somebody con-
tended that he was alive; but we believe
he denied it bitterly"
The Portland Oregonian (Rep) says:
ut is dangerous says Aldrch. to lower
duties on imports from France in compe-
tition with our protected interests. 1t is
also dangerous, we are informed, to ad-
nit duty free. goods from Porto Rico that
come into competition with our protected
interests. 1t is dangerous to legisldte
against trusts, lest we offend the protect
ed interests. Ii is dangerous not TO pass
the subsidy bill. lest we offend the protect
ed interests. These are dangers, doubt
less. but there are others, and greater. we
shall run into in trying to escape from
these. out Of the frying-pan into the fire"
The Columbia Is. c. state CDem) says:

wisdom of The politicians who Will control

phia."
The Washington Post Qnd) says: There
are Industrial combinations that are rob-
bling the public under the shelter of tariff
schedules. They pay dividends on large
amount of fictitious capital. and some of
them sell their products in Europe at low
or prices than they charge at their far
tory doors. These are abuses to which
Congress should attend. And the failure
Of Congress TO remedy such abuses Is not
excused by the magnificent pros perity that
prevails all over the United States"
