these no doubt will! be sold as fast as
former consignments, as the demand

CAPITAL For CURA.

There is plenty of capital waiting for
an opportunity for investment in Cuba.
The opportunity VIII hardly come, how
ever, until the island has a government
of its own-a government that commands
respect and invites confidence.
number of gentlemen representing a
syndicate which has S25, O0O 900 TO invest
in Cuba called on Secretary Root of the
war department on Saturday for the pur-
pose of getting a concession for a rail-
road from Cape Antoine, on the extreme
western coast, to Cape Maisi. on the ex-
IRENE eastern coast. The distance is
about 76O miles. II is the purpose of this
syndicate to cover the island with a net
work of railroads. It's plan is to build
a trunk line through the entire length
of the island, and branches from IL to
the most important seaport towns. Such
a system of railroads would give immense
impetus to the development of the island.
The rich lands would be bought up rap
idly and put under cultivation.
Secretary Root declined to grant the
concessions asked for. The position taken
was the same as that which prevented
the Commercial Gable Company from
landing a cable at Havana, namely, the
right to grant concessions 10 corpora
tions belongs exclusively to the Cuban
people. They cannot grant them until
they have a government of their own.
When that will be it is, of course, i'm
possible to say with any degree of GER
tainty.
II is evident, however, that there should
be no unnecessary delay in giving them
government of their own. The island is
not being developed as 1t should be. Every
thing is at a standstill, waiting to see
what the United States are going to do
in the matter of helping the people to
an independent government. If the pres
ent condition Of affairs continues much
longer there will be a cry from starving
people there as there is from Porto Rico.
No doubt the Cubans would gladly
roads on the island if they had the power.
AT this time the building of railroads
would be of the greatest help to them,
because it would furnish work to thou
sands of people who have little or no
means of earning a living. II is not sur
prising that the Cubans are becoming
restless over the delay in effecting such
settlement of their affairs as would open
...e way for the development of the isl-
ands resources.

THE SOUTH AFRICAN SITUATION

There is considerable speculation as to
the actual situation in South Africa. Gen.
Roberts does not appear to be ready to
move on Pretoria, and the effort to re-
lieyse Mafeking does not seem to be very
vigorous. Does this condition of mac
tivity mean that negotiations of some
sort are going on looking towards ending
the war without further fighting?
The dispatches which reach this coun-
try from Boer sources are warlike and
aggressive. They indicate purpose to
continue the war and to make it as
bloody as possible for the British, but
from the British sources there Is nothing
to indicate what the plans of Gen. Roberts
are. or whether he is hopeful that the
Beers will come to the conclusion that
their cause is a hopeless one, and will
accept the terms the British will offer
The fact that the Free State Beers are
returning to their homes. giving up their
arms 90 the British, Is calculated to dis
hearten the Transvaal Beers. Stil, the
latter, from an accounts, are fun of
pluck. They will fight in a hopeless
cause, though IL is probable that the great
majority of them do not know the truth
about the situation.
1t ought to be known within a day or
two whether President Kruger intends to
continue the war or try TO effect a set
Element of it. Unless he is confident that
there is something to be gained for his
people IL would be a crime to continue
It.

-Germany's Kaiser has been so greatly
annoyed by certain Berlin artists having
communicated to reporters severaly pure
ly private utterances made when visiting
their studios, and which have been pub
lished that he has asked the sculptor,
Prof. Begas, a personal friend, to intimate
his great displeasure thereat to the Offend
ers and his decision If this want of tact
be repeated not TO visit their studios
again.
AT Great Britain's court the hereditary
Prince and Princess of Hohenlohe-Lang-
enburg are in dire disgrace, and also at
Berlin, because they attended a state ball
given by the Emperor and Empress of
Russia at the Winter Palace, st. Peters
burg during the interval between the
death and the funeral of the Duchess
Frederick of Schleswig- Holstein, aunt or
the Prince. During last autumn the royal
couple were for several weeks the guests
of Queen Victoria al Balmoral.
Recently the German Crown Prince
began new chapter in his life. He has
ended his school days at Ploen, the lovely
little Mecklenburg town where he has
spent the last four years. After a short
stay with his parents in Berlin he will
take up his residence in the town schloss
az Potsdam, where he will confine himself
exclusively to military studies. On his
eighteenth birthday, May 6, he will join
the First Regiment of Foot Guards, in ac-
cordance with the traditions of the Hohen-
zollerns. The young Prince was most
popular in Ploen, where the simplicity of
his manners won him hosts of friends He
always did his own shopping, carried his
own parcels, and rode races on his bicycle.

The chancellor of the University of
Georgia has compiled a map showing
the geographical distribution of the at
tendance at that institution. The map
shows that the smallest attendance is
from the southeastern portion of the
state. South Georgia is. indeed, but
SHINY representa- at the university, As
compared with the attendance from other
sections We have said often before and
this map of the chancellor bears us out,
that there IS need IN Southeast Georgia
for a state institution of learning for
the benefit of the youth of this Sc ,tion.
At present the white boys of South Geor-
gia are deprived of educational advani-
ages to which they are entitled because
all of the state institutions are in North
ern or Middle Georgia. Athens and At
lanta are too far away from home for
them. The situation calls for an agri-
biological school-at the city of Savannah
for the benefit of South Georgia. The
South Georgia delegations in the Legis-
ature ought to make a strong fight at
the next session for such an institution
and the representative from North and
Middle Georgia ought to be willing to ac.
cord the demand from a sense of right
and justice.

that they do not stay whipped; the war
will not stay ended. Gen. Otis has report

opposition to the United States, but after
each reported collapse the rebels" have
"again become aggressive" The Spanish
generals used TO have similar experiences

A GOOD EXAMPLE.

The sheriff of Lowndes county has an
nounced his intention to visit the differ
ent parts of the county and give the vot-
ers a chance to register before the date
of the state primary. If this plan, which
was suggested by the Morning News sew
eral days ago, were adopted by all of the
sheriffs, there would be a pretty full reg
istration If it is not adopted the registra-
ton, in a majority of the counties, will
be very light.
1t would be hardship on the sheriffs
to travel over their respective counties
giving the people chance to register.
They get only five cents name. and that
would not pay their expenses. 1t is doubt
full if in any one of the thinly settled
counties as many as twenty names a day
would be registered. There is no induce
ment therefore for the sheriffs to carry
the registration books to voters.
The law seems to be against permitting
votes to be accepted at the primary on
the basis of the registration of 1885, Still,
ii is commended that those who are on the
registration lists for that year are quail
flied to vote Would it not be advisable
for the State Executive Committee to
look into this matter and make state
ment with regard to it? If this is not done
there is certain to be a misunderstanding
and dissatisfaction. From publications
which have been made the impression has
gone abroad that it is not necessary to
register this year in order to vote in the
primary. If the committee, after giving
the matter its attention should adhere to
the decision that there must be registra-
ton in 1900, it is probable that sheriffs
would undertake to carry the registration
hooks to voters, particularly as most of
them, in all probability, are candidates
for reelection. No effort should be spared
to get out a big vote at the primary.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The New Orleans Picayune Dem.), dis
cussing the new financial bill, says: "At
first there was very general impression
that there would be a big profit in cir
cuIation under the new conditions, and
this looked-for profit explains the large
demand for the new bonds. The opinion
is now gradually spreading that the profit
to arise from circulation under the
law has been much overestimated, ana
that the advance in the price of the bonds
above par has destroyed most of the
prospective profit. The early idea was
that, as a result of the new law, the cir
culation of the country would be greatly
inflated by vast increase in national
bank note currency That impression is
also being greatly modified as the work.
ipgs of the law come to be understood.
Circulation will only be profitable if the
money can be kept employed. AS soon
as the demand for loans is filled. the sur
plus circulation would be a drag and
would be promptly redeemed"
The Philadelphia Record Dem.) says:
I'm the matter of legisla ton affecting the
trusts, so long as Congress shall refuse
to enact reasonable and just measures of
restraint, each state must act alone. The
result will be that while the trusts will
have free hand in every state in which
they can Duy up majority OF the legis-
lators, in others the statutes will be ex-
treme 10 the injury of business generally.
But better than any restrictive measure
for the regulation of the trusts would be
the removal by Congress OF every tariff
duty which has enabled an industrial
combination to squeeze American con-
sumers."
The Columbia Is. c. State Dem.) says:
