CHARLESTON. S. c., October 22-The
directors of the South Carolina Interstate
ana West Indian Exposition received to-
day from Notwithstanding Brandford L.
Gilbert the designs and drawings for
buildings and grounds. This works had
been done by Mr.. Gilbert. who is man
OF international reputation, in very COM
pIete and most satisfactory manner.
The drawings are of the most interest
ing nature, and form 4 panoramic view Of
the exposition as it will appear when ready
for visitors, December list, 1901. The plans
include about fifteen important buildings,
the largest TO be the cotton palace, which
will have an area of $4,000 square feet.
Other buildings will be Liberal Arts. Elec-
trical Palace, Mechanical Hall. Agricultu-
raj Hall. Fine Arts, Administration Build
ing. etc.
For the Government Building. it is pro-
posed TO have a relict of the White House.
An artificial lake and a sunken garden are
among the strictly ornamental features.
The architectural. theme Will be Spanish

will be covered with staff and white, with
occasional lapses into orange and red,

sALIsBURY's IRISH SPEECH,

The powerful influence exercised by
Lord Salisbury on the opinions and poll
cies of his party and the exceptional es-
TEEN in which he is held in all the circles
of political life are not due to any ordinary
qualities. He has shown himself to be
shrewd and far-seeing political leader,
whose line of conduct in given emery.
cncy usually makes plain it's wisdom by
its being at the outset wholly misunder-
stood by political friend and enemy alike.
Few, if any. Of the English politicians OF
our time have records as entirely free
from blunders as that of Lord Salisbury,
and no man prominent before the British
public today possesses in the same de-
gree the respect and confidence of that
public.
1t is not surprising that the recent ex-
traordinary declarations of the English
premier regarding Irish affairs should
have occasioned much talk and specula
ton as to the motive and purpose of their
author. On their face the remarks IN
ANASot'OAi NCiS a ClGdI anu WdnIOn a1rGnt
of Irish representatives They could
hardly be made more contemptuous In
terms or more insulting in purport. Com
ing as they did on the heels of the queens
visit to Ireland, they must be taken as
representing specific political end.
They were not uttered thoughtlessly. 1t
would be folly to say that they were
spoken in anger. They were evidently
decided on with the utmost elaboration.
as is plain in view of the very amiable
spirit with which ireland and everything
and everybody Irish were at the time be-
ing regarded by the entire British nation
What. then, could have been the pur-
pose of these remarkable utterances Of
Lord Salisbury? And what will be. or
should be the effect wrought by them on
The public opinion of Ireland? Whatever
that effect it is perfectly safe to assume
that Lord Salisbury counted on It in Civ

"THE RIGHT OF TAXING. !,

In ITO the English duties upon Ameri-
can colony imports were all removed ex-
cept pence a pound on tea, which was
retained by express command of King
George Ill, who said: 'There should
always be one tax at least to keep up
the right of taxing" How perfectly this
agrees with President McKinley's posi-
ton when he changed his plan after his
''plain duty message declaring that
Porto Rico should have free trade! And
how he whipped his party into his way
of thinking! The. only test to any ques-
ton now before the Republican party is
surrounding Mr.. Mckinley He speaks
and the party cringes. Gov. Roosevelt
was at the White house the other day
and the syndicate decided that the gov
ernor had better not take the vice presi-
dency, but wait for the fist place after
Mr. Mckinley has his second term. The
job is farmed out far in advance by the
political BOSSES and the people have

timent sure to be worked up during the
next four years. The signal has already
been given out from Washington, and
the small bosses will soon begin to en-
thuse their followers to hurrah for '"Ted-
dy!" The harmony of the Republican
party is the harmony of elm
mated individuality; it is the
crunching of the machine. The Re
publican who dares to question the poll
cy of Mr.. Mckinley is marked as a trail
tor and cut off from patronage And
so the great majority belong to the
army of towards and accept what is
doled out by the bosses. The plain Re-
publicans of the country do not believe
in Hanna's ascendancy, but he's a bold
man who dares to speak out against it.

ed conventions in the years past. Their
duties will be exacting; and each will be
selected for his familiarity with public
men from different sections of the coun-
try.
David c. Owens, of Milwaukee. will
nave entire charge of the working force
OF the convention. He held the same DO
sitlon at the st. Louis convention, four
years ago, and his fitness for the place
IS unquestioned. He will be here on June
H. and will at once assume charge of
that department and begin to drill the
large corps under him. Samuel E. Kerch-
erViil, of Indianapolis, will be master of
the doors, and he will also be here on
June II. He likewise served in the same
capacity at st Louis. These men after
drilling their men for one week. Will be
capable of handling any crowd to the
convention, and it will possibly surprise
many visitors to note how well such vast
crowds can be taken care of under such
conditions.
I have visited the hall at the national
export exhibition grounds and [ think it
a superb place to hold a convention. The
nail is immense; well lighted and per-
tectly ventilated and it is my opinion
th&t when the convention is called to
order at noon on June 10, by Chairman
Hanna, sight will be witnessed I'M
