CANAL MESSAGE.

News comes from Washington
that the President will probably
send a message to Congress this
week urging action upon the 18TH
milan canal project. 1t is said, to
quote the dispatch of the Montgom-
ery Advertiser, that che has no
preference for one route over the
other. but he wants to see the Sen
ate get under way with the discus
sion of the subject so that one or
the other may be chosen. He is
restless atathe Senate's delay. The
President is not inclined to inter
fere with the business OF Congress
and has refused III the past to offer
suggestions on the canal situation
lest his suggestions be termed in
reference. But since the negotla-
tions, which have recently been
concluded with Colombia must be
laid before the Senate, the Presl-
dent will take advantage of the OPP
portunity to interject a few remarks
inviting attention to the desirab1l1-
ty of an isthmian waterway con-
Meeting the Atlantic and Pac1tlc'
No one will have any objection to
the President taking hand in this
matter, certainly not the people,
but the President should be sure he
is right before he goes ahead. 1t
is believed he favors the Panama
route. but if he urges unnecessary
haste he is likely to see the Mica
ragua bill passed, and no man can
fell the outcome once the country is
embarked on this hazardous pro-
iect. Colombia on one side and
Nicaragua and Costa RIGA on the
other each have propositions TO
make to the United States and
while the terms in each case are
known, it is wise to digest them
carefully before reaching a fina.
conclusion. The President, like
the country, is anxious for this
great project to be gotten under
way at the earliest possible day
but his anxiety should not lead hin
into errnr.-Nashyi11e American.

FEEDING THE POOR OF LONDON

One of the features of the corona
ton OF King Edward next June Will
be an ample repast for the poor OF
London given in honor OF the &C
cession of the new sovereign and
Dreparations will be made tor the
accommodation of 100000 guests.
Impressed with the idea that the
good will Of the pauper element can
be purchased with pies and lemon
ade, King Edward himself has sub
scribed the royal sum of SloO, 0Oo
toward the funds and doubtless as
much as $3.50, 200 will be subscribed
by the public. We are not told ex-
actly how the multitude will be ted,
but the managers of the feast will
see to it that not one single resi-
dent of the submerged twelfth is
left at the close of the day with an
unsatisfed feeling of emptiness.
While the ph1lanthroplC spun VI
the proposed banquet is one with
which the whole civilized world will
be heartily in accord, it only serves
to bring out i'll bold relief against
the brilliant background OF the cor
onation jubilee the extent OF the
wretchedness and squallor which
abounds in the worlds great me-
tropolis.
If the sentiment of good will to
ward the destitute which has
prompted this method of signaliz
ing the kings accession to the
throne continues to characterize the
reign of the new sovereign, the
poor of London will have reason t.
bless the day on which King Ed

A LITERARY FREAK.

Mary MacLane, of Butte, Mont,
is a queer girl of 10, who has writ
ten a book of a sensational charac-
ter, entitled "The Story of Mary
MacLane. Mary is certainly odd
enough. She wants to be consld-
cred bad, and says she loves only
two persons, the devil and herself
Says she:

er expect to be. Why should | be

derstood, and | am genius. Yes,

want him to come for me. When
he comes shall be ready to go with
him, and, oh, l shall be so happy.
Evidently Mary is frank sort Of
freak. There may be not a few
people in the world who think Of
themselves as Mary thinks OF her
self, that they are gen1uses, whom
the world does not understand, an6
who love themselves so superlat1ve
Nv they have little room for loving
others, but it is rare to find one 81
frankly outspoken. Maybe, ate
all, Mary is far from being so reall,
bad and heartless as she claims t.
be. but is making this desperate
kind of confession to win notoriet.
and profit by it. We are rattle
suspicious of people who claim t

tive structure inside aud out on or
binary occasions, since Saturday

mittee, presents most attractive

features of the decorations are to
be noted on the stage, where the
Admiral and his committee in charge

form beautiful background. Every

casion.

and in the spacious galleries, hun
dreds are gathered to hear the pre-
sentation speech and the response
by the Admiral.
The souvenir is in the form OF q
magnificent silver service, which
has already been described atlength
Sufficient here to say it is composed
of one hundred and eight pieces
and represents the esteem in which
Admiral Schley is held by thousands
OF persons in the Southland.

BRYAN NOT TO RUN.
Not Candidate for Democratic Nom
ination in 1904.


81 am not candidate for the
Democratic nomination for Presl-
dent in 1904" said William Jen-
nings Bryan at the Union Station
at st. Louis last Friday, according
to a special from that city to the
New York Sun. Mr.. Bryan was en-
route to Kentucky to fill a lecture
engagement. He spent an hour at
the station waiting for his train.
Although he said that he would not
be a candidate, Mr.. Bryan says the
nominee should be some one who
did not desert the Democratic party
in the last two elections.
AS to trusts, Mr.. Bryan declares
that they are becoming more nu-
merous every day, Notwithstanding
President Roosevelt's supposed at
titude against them.
GA great howl" he says, lis be-
ing made against the meat trust
and the Republican administration
is making desperate effort to curb
it for political reasons. The peo-
nle never seem to realize how bad a
thing is until their stomachs are
being affected. The meat trust is
no worse than any other trust, only
that it affects the stomach"
Mr.. Bryan says the silver ques-
ton is still an issue, and claims
that the Democratic platform OF
1904 should be similar to the Kan
sas City platform.
