MILLIONS FOR EDUCATION.

The impression is very strong among
those who are in touch with the mem
bers of the Robert Ogden party that re-
Gently visited the South in the interest
of education, that steps will soon be
taken to greatly increase the Souths ed
vocational advantages.
As already stated in the Morning News
a board of seven Southern men will be
created, of which Mr. Ogden is to be the
chairman. 1t is expected that through this
board a very large amount of money win
be given for educational purposes. The
money will be distributed throughout the
Southern states. 1t is the plan to send
agents into every county to arouse inter
est in education. The aim will be TO get
the people themselves to contribute more
to the public schools, and when this is
accomplished contributions will be made
from fund that will be donated for that
purpose. 1t may be that the gift of money
will be made on the plan that Mr.. Car
negie gives money to towns for libraries
that is, so much will be given to a coun-
ty that raises a certain sum from It's
own CltlZeuS.
1t is well understood, of course, that
money Is not to be donated especially for
negro schools. The white schools are to
have their share of 1t. 1t is recognized
that it would be a mistake to undertake
to give negroes educational advantages
superior to those possessed by the whites.
OF course, there is no plan for the dis
tribution of money agreed upon yet, and
none will be until the board in question
is appointed. There will necessarily be
a good deal of discussion of details, even
after the main features have been set
tied. 1t may. therefore, be several weeks
before anything definite is known of what
the philanthropists propose to do.
1t will be recalled that Mr.. Rockefeller.
a son of John D. Rockefeller. the Stand
ard OIL magnate, was one of the Ogden
party. There is rumor that he is to
be one OF the largest contributors to the
educational fund. 1t seems that he has
some views of HIS own as to what very
rich men should do with their money,
and that his father is willing that he
shall put his views to a practical test.

YOUNG MEN AND SOCIETY.

what he thought of the opinion recently
expressed by Mr.. Schwab. president of
thing for a young man with career be-
fore him." He said: Society is ruinous.
A young man needs all his energies, all
of his vital force. for his career"
In the course of his talk Senator De-
pew said that a few days ago he was
talking of this very matter with a dis
tinguished lawyer, in the Office of the
latter. The lawyer has two sons who are
college graduates, and in every respect
worthy young men, but they are over
whelmed with social attentions They are
in their fathers office, trying to read
law, but have not much time to give to
their studies. In the same office is an
other young man. He is poor, and for
the privilege he enjoys he dusts the fur
niture and does other odd jobs. The law

THE PRESIDENTS TOUR.

| Commenting on the Presidents tour.
the New York World says: THE trip Of
MIR. Mckinley is that Of President visit
ing a people II is not a political jaunt
for the promotion of another executive
term. There will be no partisanship in
giving him good greeting wherever he
pauses. for the preferment which he holds
in the popular name"
The World is safe in asserting that the
trip of the President which began yes
ferday has no political significance. He
is just beginning his second term. 1t is
not probable that he would take trip
across the continent at this time for the
purpose of increasing whatever chance
he may have for a third term. Many
things are likely to happen in the next
three years that will wholly change the
political situation. Plans made at this
time might be entirely out of harmony
with the political conditions prevailing in
the next national campaign.
Still, it is not improbable that there
has flashed through the mind of Mr.. Nc
Kinley the thought that the present trip
may have some influence on his political
fortunes. No doubt he would like to have
a third term. No President has ever had
third term. An extraordinary effort
was made to nominate Gen. Grant for a
third term, but it failed. Mr.. Cleveland
received three nominations, but was
elected only twice. If he had been elect
ed the second time that he ran he would
not have been nominated, in all prob
ability, a third time. MIR. Mckinley may
have no ambition for a third term, or,
having it, believes that the tradition. that
no man should be elected for more than
two terms in succession, ought to be re-
spected.
But if he has a third term in mind he
can make the present trip of great benefit
to himself He will visit twenty-five
states and will stop at many cities. He
will be entertained by municipalities and
commercial bodies. 1t is a well known
fact that he possesses in an eminent degree
the faculty for making friends. He is
popular man and a popular President, and
it is a safe prediction that he will in
he will be away from Washington. He
will not of course. say anything about
third term. He would not discuss the sub
ject il it were mentioned in his presence.
But if he is so disposed he can make
friends in all of the twenty-five states
who would be willing to lend him help
ing hand if he were to be a candidate
for a third term. A word judiciously
dropped here and there will be remem-
bered, and will be productive of good
wishes for him if the time should come
when he would need political assistance.
Therefore, while the trip is not under
taken for political purposes, and while
there will be no politics talked, some eff
fective political work may be done.

BoTTLISG UP THE NEW oIL-FIELD.


Shrewd men are the managers of the
Standard Oil Company. 1t is alleged that
they tried to get possession of the new oil
field in Texas known as Beaumont. What
their purpose was is unknown. II is said,
however. that II was, in all probability
to prevent its development until they
needed it. Anyway, their purpose doubt
less was to prevent competition. 1t is
said that other fields that promised to
produce abundantly were bought by that
company and practically closed.
Failing to get possession of the Beau
mont field it's agents declared that the
Texas oil was not valuable because the
percentage of Illuminating oil in 1t was
very small But it seems that the views
expressed by It's agents were at variance
with the opinion held by its managers.
That this is so appears from the fact
that the company has purchased all of the
railroad terminals and wharf facilities at
Port Arthur, the seaport nearest to the
Beaumont oil field. In fact, it is about
the only seaboard outlet for the Beau
mont oil.
Now, If the situation is rightly under
stood. not barrel of oil can leave the
Beaumont oil field by way of the sea
without paying tribute to the Standard
OH Company. What that tribute will be
no one is of course in a position to say.
It is fair to assume, however that it will
be large enough to prevent the Texas oil
from coming into hurtful competition with
the oil of the Standard Oil Company.
There is not the best feeling between
the people of Texas and the Standard Oil
Company. Under the laws of that state
that company cannot do business within
its limits. Not long ago the chief man in
the Standard Oil Company was indicted
in Texas for a violation of the states
antitrust lows. Unless the indictment
has been disposed of very recently
it is still pending. Therefore, it
must give that company a great
deal of satisfaction to bottle up the
oil Of the Texas oil field. Its satisfaction,
however, will not be lasting. When the
Legislature meets it is safe to say that
a move will be made against the compa-
ny that will be more radical than any that
has heretofore been made. There are
some very able men In the Beaumont oil
district, and it will be surprising If a way
isn't found for getting Beaumont oil
through Port Arthur without paying
tribute to the Standard OIL Company.

Hints have been thrown out, if the
statement in the Washington dispatches
is correct, that the Cubans would &C
cept the Plat amendment if they could be
assured that Cuba's sugar would be adj
nitted into our market free of duty.
1t is not improbable that when Congress
meets an effort will be made either to adj
nit Cuban sugar free of duty or else
to so modify the duty on that sugar that
Cubans will get for it almost as good a
price as the Louisiana sugar planters get
for their sugar.
But a bill taking the duty of Cuban
sugar. or greatly reducing the duty, would
meet with stubborn resistance. Louisiana
would never consent to any such measure.
and 1t is certain that there would be
strong opposition to it in this state and
Florida where there rs a large acreage
of sugar cane, and also in half a dozen
or more of the Northern states where the
beet sugar industry is assuming very large
proportions.
1t was stated in our dispatches yester-
day that at least a dozen new beet sugar
factories were in the course of erection
in New York the Dakotas and Nebraska.
1t is we'll understood of course that the
beet sugar industry in California is an
immense one And its proportions are
steadily increasing.
If the sugar of Cuba were permitted
to come into this country free of duty 1t
would be but few years before that
island would be producing enough sugar to
supply our market. AS cane sugar can be
produced in Cuba for less than cane or
beet sugar can be produced in this coun-
try, our beet and cane sugar industries
would be ruined.
1t can be readily seen therefore that
q bill to give the Cubans the benefit of
our market free of duty would not go
thorush Congress with a rush. Il would
require hard work to get it passed at AN.
Indeed 1t is probable that a proposition
TO annex Cuba would meet with consid-
cradle opposition. We got Hawaii at
heavy cost, but we don't get much If any
more of HawaiPs trade than we would if
we had not admitted her sugar free of
duty or annexed her.

Dan DAILY and. His Golf story.

next night | worked it into The Girl
From Up There, and it gets a bigger
laugh than anything else 1 say. Ny most
successful stage joke-the golf story
came to me by accident, too. One after
noon while loungfng about the Casino
stage | picked up a scrap of newspaper
that had evidently been used to wrap up
something. In glancing it over l found
the golf story, credited to Exchange 1
don't even know what paper it was, as
part of the page was torn off. 1t looked
like one of those patent insides used in
small towns.
THE odd thing about il all was that
l was never allowed to tell the whole
story. You know it goes on to explain
that after you hit the ball you walk a
mile, and that il you find it the same
day you win. AT that point the audience
thought the climax had been reached
and laughed. The first time tried to fin
ish the story, but nobody heard me and
I never tried x again. It would nave
been useless. The story continues that if
you don't find the ball the same day YOU
send your man to look for it the next,
and if he finds it, ne wins.
After awhile l saw that the audience
was right and that the story really end
ed better where they insisted it should.
At first, though, it made me pretty mad"
