The republicans in South Carolina are
nominating candidates for Congress in
each district. We presume they are
preparing for a contest, for certainly
they have no chance Of electing any one
of them. Then it is one way of keep
ing the organization together and fight
ing for the little patronage in this
State. And yet u people should turn
out and vote in the general election.

SECRETARY MOODY SPEAKS.
Annual Banquet Of Michigan Repub-
lican Club.

Detroit, Mich, May S1.-The seventeenth
annual banquet Of the Michigan Republi-
can Club was held tonight at Light Guard
armory. More than 800 members Of the
club were present. The speakers were
Secretary Of the Navy, William H. Moody
who had come from Washington to speak
for the administration. Senator p. j. Nc.
Cumber of North Dakota: Congressman
Henry s.. Beutelle of Illinois; Congress
man r. w. Taylor of Ohio and A. T.
Bliss Of Michigan.
Secretary Moody responded to the toast
THE President" He declared the Repub-
lican party did not shrink from scrutiny
of its stewardship There was not in all
political history such record of promise
perfected and pledges redeemed. Since
McKinley's Inauguration he said. We had
enjoyed q national prosperity greater than
the world had ever seen. Where there
formerly had been despair there now was
confidence.
The Democratic policy. he said, had
been one of guarding criticism, they had
even charged the gentle and pure minded
Mckinley with an ambition for a crown.
One could not but recall the Democratic
denunciation OF The Republican policy
toward Porto Rico, yet the fruit of that
policy was to raise the PROSTATE island;
TO treDie our imports rum anu 4ua"i "pio
our exports to the island; and TO give
the light Of the American school house
to the people who had known only tyran-
ny-to give them liberty. intelligent self
government and equal Justice.
Again one might search all recorded
history and find no parallel to the treat
ment of Cuba by the United States.
Secretary Moody closed with an earnest
appeal to his hearers to suspend judg-
ment upon the American soldiers In the
Philippines until the other side was
heard, saying that the President would
punish any proved misconduct.

learns that the cruiser San Francisco is

Until Captain Asa Walkers report Is

of much importance by both the State

Should any such arrangement as contem-

West African territories.
From Great Britain. which at present

demand 81 day for eight hours work.

plumbers who make contracts with the

not do. The master plumbers give assur-

Scuth Carolina Interstate and West In

The Exposition opened on the first of
Decen her last and the six months of Its
period has made a very brilliant season
for CT arleston. The first half of the time
was not very prosperous to the show, but
during the three last months great
crowds have visited it, and there has been
the widest interest and enthusiasm over
IL.
The enterprise will be a loss financially,
the stockholders getting none of their
subscriptions back and perhaps some loss
falling on the bopdholders. with few
outstanding debts. but, taken altogether.
the showing in this respect will be very
much better than has been predicted,
otherwise the success of the show is I'M
questioned.
The people of Charleston are very en-
thusiastic over its results. All who have
seen IL have declared 1t to be most
creditable exhibition.
The last day was observed as Charles
ton day, with the exercises set chiefly for
the afternoon. There was tournament,
a military parade and sham battle, short
speeches of faicitation, dancing by the
children on the lawns and the exercises
of turning off the lights.
Among thu permanent advantages to
the city already assured by the Exposition
Is the establishment of a public park. the
city having purchased part of the Expo
sition grounds. containing the court of
palaces and sunken gardens. Oregon,
New Mexico. Missouri and other States
have presented large proportions OF their
exhibits to the city of Charleston as the

of which we know considerable and of
late years we have begun to learn some
thing about the sweetmeats upon which
the children in the Aztec homes once re-
called themselves. They are still made
by the Mexican Indians. and more espe-
cialIy the Mayas at the present time, and
occasionally few are brought by travel
ers TO this city.
They are manufactured chiefly of fruits.
and sometimes of nuts and fruits mixed,
and with but little sugar. They are more
like macedoines OF fruits than ordinary
preserves. The favorites are the guava,
loduGt orange, lemon, lime, cocoanut,
c<,stard-apple, pineapple, fig, banana,
aw paw, grape, currant and berry. The
cocoarut is used before maturity when
the meat is still soft and pulpy. In gem
eraI, the fruit is cup up. cooked with
very little sweetenng, and boiled down
to a granular paste and then preserved
by the addition of some vinous luid.
The Mexicans today employ brandy,
aguardiente. mescal, or strong wine, so
that the finished product bears vague
resemblance to our own branded
