News, if the trainers of the consti-
tuition intended that the senate
should have such power in respect
to the revenues as is contained in
the claim that il has the exclusive
right to pass upon commercial
treaties.
If the senate's contention should
be upheld Cuba would stand a
much better chance, in all proba-
bility, of getting tariff concessions
than if it should be held that COM
mercial treaties must have the ap-
proval of the house. While it is
true that there has been no express
sion in the house, or by either par
ty in the house, as to whether tar
iff concessions should be made to
Cuba, there is an impression that
the majority party in the house is
inclined to oppose such concessions.
1t is certain, continues our con-
temporary, that many of the lead
ing Republicans of the house op-
pose them, and it may be that they
see that if the question of making
these concessions should come be-
fore congress there would be troub-
lie in the ranks of their party that
would endanger Republican sue
cess in the congressional elections.

ON lake OKEECHODEE.
Trip to the Board Got Stuck
on Mud Bank.
From the Tallahasseean.

From the Tallahasseean.
Commissioner of Agriculture B. f. Nc
Lin, State Treasurer j. B. Whitfield and
Comptroller Groom have returned home
from a trip to the Everglades, where they
went to- examine into the canals cut for
the purpose of draining Lake, Okee-
chObee.
They report pleasant trip. The party
left Tallahassee on Sunday and reached
Punta Gorda Monday. From here they
went by boat to Fort Myers, which place
they reached just as night set in. At
Fort Myers they took a small boat and
went up the Caloosahatchie river to Fort
Thompson. This stream is so crooked
that at some places the crew had TO get
out on the banks and cordell in order to
make the turns. After leaving Fort
Thompson, which consists of nothing but
a postoffice, they proceeded into Lake
Flirt. While proceeding on their journey
on Tuesday, the boat ran into a mud
bank, from which she was pulled off after
six hours of hard work.
Five minutes after being pulled off the
mud bank the boat got stuck on the left
bank and remained there all night. Row
boats were procured, by means of which
the party proceeded to Lake HickpOo-
chee, which is about six miles long by
four or five miles wide. While crossing
this lake, Commissioner McLin used his
bob" to some effect, capturing four fine
trout, the largest of which was ten.
FOUNDER.
At t e head of Lake Hickpoochee the
party camped, and made meal on Mr..
Mcl.ln's trout, and couple of ducks
which the hunters had killed After ex-
amining the canals leading into Lake
Okeechobee, and taking trip on the
lake, the party procured teams and drove
forty miles through the country TO Fort
Thompson, where they took boat for
Fort Myers and started OH their return to
Tallahassee.
A report of the results of their invest-
cations will he submitted TO the governor
at IA later day. Commissioner McLin re-
ports that the effects of the recent cold
spells could be seen as far south as Fort
Myers, although no serious damage has
been done. In some Instances young
orang" trees were damaged slightly. The
prospects are bright for orange growers
this year.

The South's Manufactures.


The Manufacturers Record. of
Baltimore; has compiled some in
teresting figures and facts from the
census bulletins on manufactures
in the south. The data show that
during the decade between 1890 and
1900 there was an increase of 75.1
per cent in the capital invested in
manufacturing enterprises in the
fifteen states of the southern group,
and an increase of 59.9 per cent. in
the value of their products.
The capital invested at the time
of the census enumeration (June
1900 was 81, ,153, ,670,O97 and the
annual value of products, si,466,-
669,49 These percentages and fig
ures, if they stood alone, would ap-
pear hardly short of marvellous; but
when comparison is made with the
progress of the country at large in
manufactures, it appears that the
advancement of the south has not
been so rapid as that of some other
sections of the country. The Rec
ord estimates that the increase in
capital in manufacturing in the
whole United States during the ten
years was not less than 100 per
cent, and in the value of products
about. SO per cent.
The states showing the largest
increase in capital employed, in
the order named, are: Louisiana,
225.3 per cent; Florida, 210,3; Mis-
sissippi, 14O.4; Arkansas; 1902;
North Carolina, 133; South Carroll
ma, 1903. Louisiana's rapid ad-
vancement is due no doubt TO the
development of the sugar industry,
to increased rice planting and mill
ing and to the lumber business.
Florida is becoming great naval
stores and lumber producer. Geor-
gia's percentage of increase in man.
ufacturing capital is SIT, and in
crease in value Of products 54.S.
With the advantages that the
south possesses over some of the
older manufacturing sections it is
but reasonable to suppose that the
southern states will steadily con-
tinue to move onward and forward
in manufactures.

An Interesting Question.

The question whether the senate
has the right to ratify reciprocity
treaties without consulting the
house in regard to them is an in
teresting one That 1t is considered
to be of the utmost importance is
shown by the fact that the house
has directed the ways and means
committee to investigate it thor
Oughly and make a report.
1t has always been regarded as
the prerogative of the house to orig
mate measures bearing upon the
customs duties and the revenue.
To deal with these matters without
even consulting the house appears
to be very radical departure.
This question has been under dis
cussiOn ever since the policy of ex-
tending our commerce by means
of reciprocity treaties was proposed.
The senate assumes the position
that it has the right to ratify treat
les of this character just as it rati-
fies any other kind of a treaty, that
is, without consulting the house.
Naturally the house takes the con-
trary view. Doubtless there will
be a thorough discussion of the
subject before conclusion is ar
rived at.
The reason why this question is
brought forward at this time is
probably because the senate is de-
pended upon to make a treaty with
Cuba by which the duties on Cub
an sugar and tobacco will be great
ly reduced. The house is opposed
to any such legislation without its
concurrence.
1t is doubtful, says the Savannah
