1t is a mista ke to believe that no
one in this country is bold enough
to denounce the policy Of the
United States government toward the
Philippines Speaking on this sub
ject Andrew Carnegie said:
'sThe killing of men by men under the
name of war is the foulest blot upon human
ity to-day. We see much discussion as to
what is or what is not permissible under
civilized warfare. My view is that this is
contradiction in terms. There can be no
such thing as civilized warfare. ''Britain,
having refused arbitration in its dispute with
the Transvaal republic, is responsible for the
determination of a brave and heroic Christ
ian people. But let US also remember that
we are to-day engaged in shooting down
Christian FiliPinos. whose only crime is that
they believe in the declaration of inde-
Pendence. Sad that both branches of the
so-called most highly civilized race should
be guilty of the most uncivilized crimes. Let
US all pray that this disgrace is soon to pass

Cotton Cons umed South.


From the Baltimore Sun.
The consumption of cotton in
Southern cotton mills begins to bear
large proportion to the total con-
sumed in the United States and
Canada. Mr.. Hester, of the New
Orlean Cotton Exchange, reported,
for example, a taking by Southern
mills in 1901, up to December II,
of Cor, I96 bales, as against 8a8, ISL
bales taken by Northern and Cana
dian spir ners. The gain over the
preceding year in Southern takings
was over 100, 600 bales. This is as
it should be. Cotton can be best
manufactured where it is grown.
and at the largest profit. In periods
CT high prices badly located mills
mills far from the cotton fields
can continue to run, but in hard
times they will be frozen out by in
ability to compete with mills down
South. Thus. little by little, the
logic of the situation will compel
the transference Of the cotton in
dustry to the South.

Dallas Reunion.

Baton Rouge Truth.
Should the delegation from Louis
lana to the Dallas Reunion prove to
be small one, it certainly will not
be the fault of Gen. Jastremski, the
commander of the Louisiana Divi-
sion, who is working with unprece-
dented energy to the end that the
Louisiana delegation shall be Sec
ond to none in number and per-
sonel. 1t is intended that the growl
of Louisiana Tigers will be heard
over music of bands or cheers of
multitude. If the Generals plans
are effectively carried out the Dali
las reunion, in so far at least as
Louisiana is concerned, will be the
grandest success of the many pleas
ant reunions. There is a general
desire on the part of veterans to
in as many reunions as
possible before joining in the grand
which will take them ssover

Supp.
The good people Of Mississppi
are on the eve OF being treated to
that most troublesome of all public
ahlictions--a prohibition campaign.
The advocates Of prohibition in that
splendid State are determined that
hereafter no saloon shall do bust.
ness within the limits Of their COM
monwealth. They are not satisfied
with local option, but they want to
have State Law against the selling
of alcoholic drinks. We believe
that local option offers the most
reasonable solution Of this vexed
question. BY submitting the matter
to the voters of each county the
nearest approach to the will of the
majority is reached. As much as
we believe prohibition to be un-
sound in principle and injurious to
the cause Of good government, the
fundamental doctrine of a Demo
cratic system is supremacy Of the
PORus11 ~A's IA SAC StASC OI LOUIS.
lana an illustration of the wisdom
of local option is presented. In
the northern part of the State the
people believe that prohibition is q
good thing, that it affords the best
remedy for the evil of intemperance
and it is very proper that they
should employ the methods which
appeal to their judgment and con-
science. Here in South louisiana
the citizens are inclined to think
that high license has furnished the
most sensible way of dealing with
the whisky devil. BY each section
TO its own affairs and con-
ceding the same privilege to the
other. we are permitted to live in
peace, free from the annoyances of
omcious intermeddlers. Up on the |
nils and in the p,newoods the peo-
3le prefer to meet the enemy in |
Mortal combat and take chances
With the blind tigers. Down here
We are more conservative in select
ing our methods of warfare. We
lave horror of blind-tigers and a
ort of inherent dislike for sarsapa-
lila and other prohibition drinks
: We believe that the prohibition
sts are sincere and well-meaning,
tut misguided zeal leads them to
he adoption of measures which do
=
# temperance. We are inclined to
hink with Bishop Potter that
vherever tried prohibition has COM
'letely failed to prohibit and that
he remedy is worse than the evil.
Bishop Potter said recently:
''Whenever prohibition has trumphed it
n educated a race of frauds and hypocrites.
n Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont to-
ay by actual statistics the consumption of
ertain preparations is larger than anywhere
lse in the country. One of these is . sar-
aParilla which has ~ per cent. of alcohol
mother is . compound with - per cent. of
lcohol, another is bilters with 81 per
ent. of alcohol. A good claret has 10 per
ent. alcohol, and great multitudes Of peo-
lie who are sworn prohibitionists are the
onsumers of those things. We are going I
, persist in this policy, to securely close all
ae front doors on Sunday and open the :,
ack doors; we are going to nurse a race of
yPocrites, to furnish an opportunity to a :
arty to exact bonus and to close the door $

CRAIG AND THE PRESIDENT.
Points of Similarity Between Two
Strenuous Men.

A typical soldier of fortune was
big Bill" Craig, the secret service
man who was killed near Pittsfield
while riding in the coach with the
President and party, that met with so
serious an accident. 1t is told that
Craig was the only secret service man
that the President in his innate dis.
taste of dependence of any kind would
tolerate about him.
Theodore Roosevelt liked Craig, not
alone because he was physical giant,
not because he had served in the
Household Guards of England's Queen,
nor yet because he Was of the famous
BLACK Watch" in the Soudan and
went to the relief OF Gordon. All these
things were incidents to the fact that
Craig was a man after Roosevelt's own
heart, bent upon doing, and doing as
well and as hard as nature allowed.
An incident of the Presidents trip
may be recalled here. 1t was during
a reception in Vermont town. In
the middle of the reception the lights
went out. With the rush of darkness
big form seemed to envelop Presi.
dent Roosevelt and two strong arms
thrust back the people in a manner
that led to but one conclusion-thatn no
enc would come near, except after
passing Bill Craig. And no one passed.

In the new frivols Of fashion there
may be noted these things:
Street coats with three little capes.
The little lace cap, very close on
the shoulders.
Lace dresses with silk Innings and
silk underslips OF all colors.
The beef eater hat with straps Of
stitched cloth on the crown.
The Cleopatra hat brim, turned up
and embroidered on the outside.
Street sleeves with capes at the
shoulder and capes at the hand.
The very low necked evening
gown with three caps for the sleeves.
Wide scarfs that come from the
sides of the hat and tie under the
chin.
The skirt trimmed with three
flounces, each third depth of the
skirt.
The gowns of point d'esprit with de-
lightful ruffles trimmed with narrow
blue velvet.
Flounces of black insertion with
bands of green ribbon trimming on
the upper part.
The sleeve that is tight In the
upper parts. but so baggy in the lower
that 1t makes a pillow shaped droop.
The military hat turned up at the
sides and back, but pulled down to
sharp point in front, either trimmed
or untrimmed
Big rosettes tnat are set at each
side Of the hat from which the scarfs
are hung that are brought under the
chin and tied In bow.
The Mother Hubbard hat has a rib
bon tied around the crown. 1t has
loose, fiappy brim. and there are
autumn leaves upon 1t.
Hats made very elegant with droop-
Ing piack ostrich feather put on at
each side with the most classic regu-

rhe Newest JeweIry.

The newest jewelry is essentially
artistic both in design and in the
exquisite shadings Of gold which are
the most sought-after effects of the
moment. Flowers are popular motifs
and lend their graceful forms and
lovely hues with artistic adaptability
to brooches and buckles. The bios
som itself frequently forms the cen
ter, the stem and leaves being twisted
round to give the outline.
Sometimes the stalk forms the
greater part of the design, with a
cluster of the chosen fiowers-lilies
of the valley, sweet pea, hyacinth,
clematis or forget-me-nots-at one
side.
Beautiful heads, or complete female
figures. often strange and weird de-
signs, appear in rlany of the larger
ornaments.

Mr.. E. g. Moore, of 7, Phillips
Street, Kingsland;
Il was great sufferer from Rheu-
matism for many years, during which
time I tried many remedies. from
which | received but very little relief.
Being advised to use st. Jacobs Oil,
l did SO. and am happy to say that
after few applications | felt great
relief, and continuing it's use can
now say | am perfectly we'll. st.
Jacobs Oil Is, in my opinion. thing
which should be in every household"
What blessing. and what hours of
suffering, pain and misery would
have been saved had Mr.. Moore
adopted the wiser course and used
st. Jacobs Oil at first, instead of
wasting time and money on worthless
embrocations and nostrums with
which, unfortunately. the market is
flooded. The public should not lose
sight of the fact that ST. Jacobs Oil
has conquered pain for more than fifty
years, and 1t isn't going to stop doing
the same thing now or at any future
time.-Flfty years record Of pain
conquering is record to inspire con.

Smart New Costumes.

The empire gowns, in damask, are
made with smart little corslets, and
are fuller than the models which in
spire them, the undermining of them
rendering them practical for street
wear.
Some of the newest gowns combine
the empire and the modern style, so
arranged as to produce most har-
monious effect. This is particularly
true of the new redingotes designed
to be worn over light underdresses.
The backs of such redingotes are
empire in form. while the front sug-
gests modernized Louis XVI. Last
season was remarkable for the number
of mousselines ornamented with hand
painted designs. This year, and par
ticularly Just at present, delicately
painted silks trimmed with fine lace
are the novelty of novelties. The bo-
lero in lace accompanies them. and a
lace and tulle hat completes the
whole.
