SENATOR MORGAN.


bama went very wild few years ago
under the preaching of that notorious
demagogue Kolb, recent developments
in connection with the campaign be-
tween Morgan and tombstone, for the
United States senate, have shown that
their good judgment has been entirely
restored.
Able, learned, patriotic and exper-
fenced as he is, it would be difficult to
point out the peer of Senator Morgan
in the United States senate or among
the statesmen Of his generation. AL
though a Democrat in his political
affiliation, he is too broad, able and
patriotic to be bound by such consid-
erations as mere party expediency, and
on all questions affecting the welfare
of the nation, he takes a national
view, based upon his own sound judg-
ment, regardless of the criticisms of
those who are influenced more directly
by what they consider to be their own
personal political interests. That Sem
ator Morgan should become the fore
most champion of the Nicaragua canal
project or annexation of the Philip
pine islands, for instance, is about as
natural as that some representative of
smaller calibre should devote his en-
tire thought, time and talents to secur-
ing cheap notoriety in the hope of
strengthening himself among the more
ignorant rabble at home.
But the very greatness Of Morgan's
broad ideas raised up for him a host
of enemies. Especially has he aroused
antagonism an account of his cham
pionship of the Nicaragua canal, for
although advantageous as this canal
promises to be to the country at large
and especially to the south, there are
powerful aggregations of influence
and wealth which look upon it as por-
tending their ruin. These hostile
forces include individuals and corpor
ations more largely interested in trans
continental railroad traffic and the
continued prosperity of northeastern
ports at the expense of the ports on
the southeast and on the gulf. For
reasons that it is unnecessary to ex-
plain, no man of prominence can af-
ford to antagonize directly and out
right such a manifest improvement as
this canal, and hostile influences, there
fore, are compelled to act by indirec
ton and deceit.
And so it was that such a bitter
fight was instituted against Senator
Morgan throughout Alabama. Money
in abundance was furnished by the
enemies of the Nicaragua canal, news
papers were subsidized and hundreds

against Senator Morgan and in the in
terest of Governor Johnstone. The
fact that Senator Morgan is an expan-
sionist was used for all it was worth,
and while the senator continued in
Washington attending to the business
of his people, his enemies apparently
made great headway in their poisonous
work. At length the matter began to
look so serious that Senator Morgan,
upon the advice Of his closest friends,
took short vacation, went to Ala
bama, and laid his case before the
people face to face. In his usual man.
ly manner, without the slightest at
tempt at equivocation or evasion, he
frankly stated his position on various
matters, denounced as lies the lies that
had been told against him, and told

4 YEAR: CLOSES
Kawajahao Seminary
Commencement.
THE EXERCISES YESTERDAY
Hawaiian Evangelical Association At
tends and Young Ladies Show
Great Progress.

The closing exercises of Kawaiahao
Girls School were attended by the Ha-
waiian Evangelical Association on
Wednesday morning. Many interested
friends and parents We're present. One
pleasing feature was the examination
of a class of younger girls in the early
life of Jesus. They responded correctly
and promptly and much interest was
excited. Mr.. Desha was the examiner.
When Hawaiians are handled by Ha-
waiians or by those who have the ad-
vantage of a knowledge of the Hawaii
an language, they awaken to greater
responsiveness. It is a pity that there
is not in the faculty Of the Theological
School a trained Hawaiian. One hum
dred and thirteen names have been en-
rolled in the school during the past
year.
Before the visitation Of the plague
over hundred were in attendance:
later, on the establishment of the quar-
antine just after the holidays, some of
the pupils failed to return. Good work
has been done in the school along
manual lines and numerous fancy arti-
Giles, fans, lauhala work, ETC., were on
sale. Coffee and cake were furnished
at ten cents plate. The principal and
teachers are to be congratulated for so
successful showing after so difficult
year. Owing to the generosity of
certain friends the year closes with a
balance in the treasury.
AT noon the members of the Associa-
ton went in body to pay their re-
spects to the lately returned ex-queen
LiliuOkalani and met a gracious recep-
ton.
Foreign missions came up for discus
sion during the afternoon session and it
was voted that the churches continue
their usual contributions. There was a
lengthy discussion of the condition of
the Theological School. 1t was the
unanimous feeling of the Association
that large part of the teaching in the
school should still be in Hawaiian, and
a committee of five was appointed to
| memorabilia the Hawaiian Board to the
end that the entire matter of the reor-
ganization of the Theological School be
| taken into consideration. Mr.. Lydgate S
name was often on the lips of the
speakers as one they would like to have
as teacher in the school Also the
name of Desha.

Resulting Fatally in Southern
Part of the County.

Thursday night on the farm of Hon.
O. B. Stevens, several miles southwest
of Dawson, Jefferson Grant, colored,
shot another negro, Ben Whitfield, in
ficting three wounds, one shot taking
effect in the right arm, another in the
left, and the third in the right side.
1t was at first thought that Whitfield
had been killed, but it was found that
the wounds would not necessarily
prove fatal.
1t seems that Whitfield and several
other negroes were at the house of a
negro woman on the place when Grant
came to the door and raised row with
Whitfield. He had gun which he
had borrowed from the latter the day
previous, and walked around the
house threatening to shoot the in.
mates. Whitfield stepped from the
door and picked up stout stick, and il
was while he was in the act of doing
this that he was fired upon by Grant
The wounded man made an effort to
shoot Grant, but failed to hit him.
Grant Immediately fed and has
not since been seen. 1t is thought that
he has left the country. He no doubt
thought that he had killed Whitfield

whether or not this was the case.
