A NEW INDUSTRY FOR CUBA,

The report that a company of New
York capitalists is planning to become
the rival of the beef trust may have
nothing sufficiently definite to justify
an opinion in regard to the matter.
The report is that this company intends
to get control of a vast body of land
in Cuba, and devote it to the raising of
cattle. 1t will establish packing houses
on the island and go into the meat
business on a great scale. 1t is said
that Cuba is well adapted to the rails
ing of cattle. The lands are rich,
grass grows luxuriantly all the year
around and there are no destructive
billiards or droughts.
All of this may be true of Cuba, but
it is a safe assertion that even if Cuba
is all that is claimed for it as cat
tie raising country it will be many
years before it will produce enough
beef and mutton for home consumption.
Besides, the tariff is in the way of the
importation of meat and the cost of
long transportation must be taken into
account. We doubt very much if there
is anything i'll the report that the beef
trust is to have competition from Cuba.
But we do not see why it should not
have competition here in the South.
If cattle can be raised profitably In
Cuba it is certain that they can
be raised profitably in this state, and
in every other Southern state. There
are millions of acres of good land here
in Georgia that are practically unoc-
cupied. If capital were put into cat
tie raising it would not be long before
Georgia would be sending meat to
markets outside of her limits, whereas
now she is purchasing vast quantities
from the West. There was a time
when the state had a great deal OF
wealth in sheep, and she would have

dog of which the average politician is

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Louisville Courier-J ournal
(Dem) says: Subsequent develop
ments go far to support the casual
remark of Gen. Miles that the war in
the Philippines had been marked with
severity. Wars are likely to develop
seventies. 1t is not an attack upon our
officers and men generally to call at
tention to such thing. Public opinion
is a powerful agency in the preven-
ton of abuses. and there is no ap-
parent public interest to be subserved
by a suppression of the facts at this
time"
The Philadelphia Record Dem)
says: "A typical Southerner of the
ante bellum days passed to the other
side of the river when Gen. Wade
Hampton died at his home in Columbia,
S. c. He was a foeman in time of
war as earnest in the effort to divide
the Union as he was earnest after
the war in trying to heal the breach
and to save something to the white
people of his section out of the wreck.
AS friend or foe he was a brave, chiv-
alrous and high-minded man, whose
broken fortunes and undaunted spirit
awakened the sympathy and admira-
ton of thousands of his fellow-coun-
trymen who never laid eyes upon
him.
The Hartford Comm Times (Dem.)
says: Eugene f. Ware is the name
of the Kansas lawyer who has been
selected by President Roosevelt to sue
coed Col. Evans as Commissioner of
Pensions. In going to Kansas for this
appointee the President has plainly
sought to placate the Grand Army men
and pension attorneys. This is what
President Mckinley intended to do,
had he lived until the present time.
Indeed it is we'll known that Evans
would have been forced out of office
two years ago, but for Gen. Sickles'
ILL timed attack on him, which made
it impossible for Mr.. Mckinley to
abandon the commissioner at that
time"
The Baltimore Sun (Dem.) says:
1.-The trusts says Mr.. Hanna, have
come to stay. The great problem is to
reconcile the two antagonistic elements
of labor and capital Trust securi-
ties will not be q safe investment as
long as labor and capital are at odds.
Industrial peace means satisfactory
dividends. Labor disturbances mean
small profits and insecure capital. Sem
ator Hanna's candor is commendable.
He does not pose as a philanthropist
or as a purely disinterested states
man. In promoting industrial peace
he is promoting and protecting his
own pocketbook. That is a sufficient
explanation of his activity as an ad-
vocate of Cancellation and arbitration.
There might be a nobler motive; it is
inconceivable that there could be a
stronger one. 1t is no discredit to the
Ohio senator to hold the views at
tributed to him. They are sound and
sensible"

Much has been written and said
about the possibilities of cassava Gull
tivation in Florida and South Georgia
some reason the farmers of the section
have not yet awakened to it's value as
money crop. The recent convention
at Brunswick, at which cassava and
sugar cane were the principal topics
of discussion, added much to the liter
allure of the subject, and, it is to be
hoped, will increase interest in the
growing of this comparatively new/and
wonderful starch producer. The fed
eral Department of Agriculture has
taken the matter up, and the pres
ence of Secretary Wilson at the con-
vention is an evidence of the friendly
interest the department feels in this
new Southern industry. The Secre-
tary is doing what he can to advance
eassaVa growing. 1t remains now for
the people of the section to take hold
and accomplish something.
1t has been shown by experiments
that cassava can be easily grown: that
it yields an abundant crop; that it is
a better feed for cattle than corn or
oats; that it yields more starch per
ton of raw material than either pota-
toes or wheat; that cassava starch is
of higher grade and will do more
work to the pound than starch from
wheat, and that it can be manufac-
tured into a number of food products
good and wholesome for human con-
sumption. Being of easy and hardy
growth, it need not interfere seriously
with the cultivation of cotton or other
crops. A few acres and a little time
are about all that is needed for be-
ginning the experiment of growing it
as regular crop. And even with the
first small crop there need be no waste.
Hogs, sheep and cows eat it readily
and greedily. Thus from the very be-
ginning it can be turned into a mar
ketable product, even if no starch mill
is convenient to work up the roots.
1t is to the credit of Brunswick that
she has taken so much pains to hold
several conventions for the purpose of
interesting the farmers in cassava Gull
ture.

If Senators Hanna and Frye and
Representative Payne and other sup
porters of the ship subsidy bill are so
anxious to pass laws for the improve
ment of the condition of the men who
go down to the sea in ships, why do
they not give their attention to secur-
ing laws that will insure the WORTH
ness of vessels that are permitted to
go to sea? The Philadelphia Maritime
Record of recent date, summing up
the marine disasters for the first three
months of the current year, says:
January, February and March of this
year will do down in maritime history
as the worst three months ever ex-
perienced on the Atlantic coast. In all,
forty-three sea-going sailing vessels
flying the American flag and hailing
from American ports, have been total
ly wrecked. During the same
period two steamships, the Major
Barrett and the Indian, were also lost,
the former by fire and the latter by
running ashore"
The Record shows in a table that of
the sailing craft wrecked two were
barkentines, twenty-seVen schooners
and fourteen barges. How many of
these craft went to sea in an unsea-
worthy condition? Strange as it may
seem, there is no means of knowing.
The government has laws and laws on
the subject of shipping, but apparently
none that assures the soundness and
stability of sailing craft. True, it is
the law that sailing vessels of 700 tons
and over shall be inspected, but there
is defect in that law through which
it has been found impossible to en-
force penalty. Meanwhile, the Phil
adelphia North American makes the
point that there is no law of any sort
covering sea-going coal barges. The
barge, it seems, is a vessel which, COM
ing into use within the past few years,
has not been deemed worth the atten-
ton of the lawmakers. Yet hundreds
of barges are in daily use and their
number is being all the while increased,
and hundreds of men are being sent to
sea in them. Many of them are the
hulks of condemned sail and steam
vessels. Some are hardly more than
floating collins" as they have been
called.
The government provides rigid in
spection for steam vessels. During the
three months under consideration only
two American steam vessels were lost
one by fire and one by running
ashore-while forty-three sailing ves-
sells were lost. Had the rigid inspec-
ton of the one class and the lack of
inspection of the other anything to do
with this wide disparity in losses?

THEIR PICTURES IN 1T.

Some three or four months ago the
Congressional Record made it's initial
appearance as an illustrated publica-
ton. The first picture was rather
prosaic one. 1t showed two views of
a gate in the fence around the grounds
of one of the public buildings. At that
time il was suspected that the inno-
walton of putting pictures into the
congressmen's especial publications
would not end with the gate in the
Record. The likeness of the gate, it
how the people would take the light
ening up" of the ponderous pages with
cuts. The people entered no objec-
ton. Indeed. the new feature was
rather restful to the eye. Now that
other publication of the congressman,
the Congressional Directory, is to
come out embelljshed with the picto-
rial beauty of all the members of both
houses.
For years the congressman have
been voting appropriations to pay for
books in which were the pictures, in
steel engraving, colors, outline or half
tone, of prize horses, mules chickens,
ducks, bugs, birds, butterflies and a
large number of other things that
come under the attention of the Ag-
ricultural and other departments.
During this time it must have oc-
Cured to many of the congressman
that a portion of the money might
have been better spent in printing the
pictures of the men who make the
laws, in order that the people could
have arrived at deeper appreciation
of the goodly company that gathers
under the great dome at Washington
and saves the country each ses-
sion. But the innate and well-known
modesty of the congressman kept back
any suggestion looking to the crea-
ton of such a book of art. However.
encouraged by the success of the pic
ture of the gate in the Record, some
bold spirit about the Capitol proposed
the establishment of the Directory
with half-tone portraits of the MEM
bers; and the motion prevailed.
The new feature of the book can be
easily justified. The pictures of the
congressman are wanted for precisely
the same reason that pictures of but
terflies and birds are wanted in the
Agricultural Departments books; that
is. for purposes of identification. With
a Congressional Directory in her
hand, the pretty visitor to the gallery
can pick out the handsome congress-

A characteristic story is told of a
series of sittings which Mr.. Rhodes
gave to distinguished sculptor in
Chelsea, says the New York Sun. Mr.
Rhodes was a fractions sitter, and the
sculptor was not the man to stand any
nonsense. even from empire makers.
You see, Nr. Rhodes" said he, you
sometimes get your own way. l al
ways do" whereat the great man
laughed hugely.
One day. however. matters came to
a crisis. The sitter would do nothing
that was asked of him.. He had friends
with him who would not leave the
sculptor in peace.
Il believe we are pulling his leg"
Rhodes whispered.
They were, for the next minute the
sculptor seized lump of clay, dashed
it in the face of the bust he was
modelling. destroyed the~likeness, and
ordered the millionaire Off the prem
Uses.
All was patched up next day, how
ever. Rhodes loved men of character
and determination, and most humbly
begged pardon for his sins.
Rhodess indifference to mere per-
sonal appearance was well known. He
genrally wore, no matter what the
business in hand, a suit of gray tweed.
He made no exception even when he
visited the Kaiser. and it is said that
the monarch was i'll pleased with his
informal attire.
MIR. Rhodes" the Kaiser is reported
to have said, would never have VEN
tured to dress like that if he had had
an interview with my uncle"

Had Fun with CrOwnishieId.

When Mr.. Mudd of Maryland went
up to the Navy Department some days
ago Secretly Long drew out plans for
a new chapel at Annapolis, says the
Pittsburg Dispatch. AS the Mary
lander is considerably interested in
the construction of the new naval
academy, he was delighted to observe
the papers spread before him.
1.-THE building would cost 100000,
said Secretary Long.
isn't that pretty steep sum-
asked Mudd. Couldn't the cadets be
provided with a more democratic place
of worship? The sum of $4,000 would
build a pretty fine chapel"
The Secretary explained that it was
hoped to make the building more than
a mere chapel. 1t could be made a
sort of mortuary hall, or structure to
accommodate also statues of historic
naval officers.
81 might consent to that if you
would place a statue of Schley on the
top of this chapel observed Mr.. Mudd.
well, we can never agree to that,
said Admiral Crowninshield, who was
also present. Since then the Naval
Committee of the House and it's mem
bers have heard nothing of the pro-
posed memorial chapel.
