Once more Pennoyer energies from
obscurity. Pennoyer will be remember
ed by few newspaper readers, prob
ably. as the person who, while Govern
or of oregon some years ago when pop
ulism was a fad, inaugurated the Gus
tom of writing a political stump speech
and calling 1t a Thanksgiving procla-
nation. Now Pennoyer is trying to
push Mr.. Bryan out of the Democratic
ship. THE ignoring of Bryan by the
Ohio Democratic convention" he says.
was legitimate and just. He had as
pired twice to the leadership of the
party and twice had led it to defeat,
when, with any other candidate on the
same platform. it would have been vic
torious. The young man simply talked
himself and his party and its principles
TO defeat. and it is eminently proper
that he should be set aside"

A NEW ROAD BEYOND THE RIVER.


The efforts of the Beaufort county
South Carolina, authorities to obtain
possession of Union Cor Screvens)
Ferry and the road leading thereto,
have not yet been successful. 1t seems
that the plan was to take possession
of the road without compromising its
owners; but as the ferry company is
a chartered corporation this somewhat
high-handed proceeding was not deem
ed advisable. The road from the ferry
to the uplands is through a rice plan
tation, and owing to there not being
sufficient income for the tolls to war
rant keeping it in good repair it is al
most impossible in rainy weather and
during freshets. The road, however, is
the only one open to the public by
means of which the residents of that
part of Beaufort county adjacent to
the Savannah river can reach this city;
and the Beaufort county authorities are
DESTROYS of putting it into such condi-
ton that it may be used at all times
1t is to the interest of Savannah
that there shall be ready and reliable
means of access to the city from the
South Carolina side of the river, and
our business men ought to cooperate
whenever possible in the establishing
of such means of access. Whether 1t is
the best idea to improve the old Screw
ems Ferry road. however, is a question.
That road strikes the river several
ha nj ha
better to construct a new road that
would come down to the water directly
opposite the city? With such a road on
the other side, the authorities of Sa-
vannah or those of Chatham county
could no doubt be induced to construct
and, connecting with ferries across
Back river and the Savannah. A fur
Their argument in favor of such a new
road is this: There is every reason to
believe that the time is not far distant
when bridge will span the Savannah
river betweeen the city and the Sea-
board Air Line terminals on Hutchin-
sons Island. The advantages of such a
bridge in connection with the proposed
road can be easily understood. Both
this city and the people beyond the
river would be much benefited. In con-
structing the Beaufort county high
way, therefore, it would be well to
look to the future, and that future
with a big river bridge in it. There is
going to be a lot more development at
the northern end of this city, and 1t
will be OF a character to invite the
taking of steps 10 develop the agri-
cultural possibilities OF the uplands ON
the Carolina side of the river by means
OF roads and bridges.

CURRENT COMMENT!

The Chicago Chronicle (Dem) says:
Elk Senator Blair Of New Hampshire
has discovered that, under God and
Mckinley, Secretary Gage is respon-
sible for the prosperity Of the country,
and that he deserves to rank with
Hamilton. Gallatin Chase and Sher-
man as the greatest of. the secretaries
of the treasury. Nobody knows ex-
actly what the ex-senator is after. but
it is reasonably certain that, whatever
ii may be, Mr. Gage has it in his pos
session, and that il viii be forthcoming
in due time AS to the great secre-
taries of the treasury named Robert j.
Walker Hugh McCulloch and Daniel
Manning deserve TO be mentioned in
that category and Lyman j. Gage does
not"
The Kansasc City Times (Dem.)
says: Another sign of the growing
demand for tariff revision was given
by the Western saddlers in their re-
cent convention They passed a reso-
luton asking that the duty on hides
should be removed in order that they
might secure TO better advantage their
raw materials What makes this re-
quest more significant is that the men
who made II come from the very sec
ton Of the country where the builders
of the Dingley bill believed they were
doing the greatest benefit by the i'm
position of the duty on hides"
The Hawaii Bulletin (Honolulu)
says: THE man who discovered that
income taxes are collected in the states
presides over the educational depart
ment of Hawaii. From the same
source came the local announcement
that Senator Clark OF Montana is a
Republican,. A course In the facts OF
American government would be highly
appropriate IN the Office Of the Super
intendent Of Public Instruction. With
such leaders what wonder II Is that
fads and fancies characterize the
course OF Instruction In the schools"
