And by it the United States will
agree to maintain Cuban indepen-

The Cubans, probably animated by
the failure of reciprocal trade con-
cessions, are requesting the final
withdrawal of American troops, and
are passing measures evidently hos
tile to this country. Such one re-
ported is the passage of a bill re-
uuirng a stipulation that In all gov

of the labor employed shall be Cuban.

Concedng that when one works for
man, he works only for the time he
is employed and paid for. And we
would further concede that the inter-
est of the employer is as well the in
terest of the employee, for when the
employer is benefited, the employee
also is as we'll benefited. But can the
employer, as of right, expect more out
of his employee than for the service
one is expected TO render within the
limit of time agreed upon between the
parties Interested? We think not, for
q man is worthy only of his hire, and
nothing else is further expected OF him
other than for the time he is employed.
Beyond that, the employee is the sole
master, and together with himself is
the interest of his family, providing he
has one, and then to h.s Maker the

SUWANEE SPRING.

At Camden, N. j., they were discuss
ing the death of Hon. William j.
Sewell, United States Senator from
New Jersey, when DIR. Taylor, the
family physician, in speaking of the
senator's death this afternoon, said;
"He would have probably lived many
years with diabetes had he not gone
abroad, but Carlsbad had always
helped him before, and it was there
that he went for relief again. 1t was
there that he contracted the pneu-
monia trouble, and this, with the dia-
betes he already had, resulted in a
complication that medical skill proved
unable to cope with"
Thereupon DR.. w. Fl Morse, the
American director of the Bureau of
Materia Medica, said;
THAT meets my argument for Su-
vance Springs. l published a good
word for them five years ago. and
continue to maintain that in every
way the water is the equal of Carlsbad
or any other. The Springs are. easy of
access, and the psychic influences of
change of scenery and climate are
wonderful. There are no chill winds to
cause pneumonia, and no malaria. My
advice Is to send all patients with kid
ney troubles to Suwanee Springs, and
let Carlsbad take care of itself. Springs
equal in every way to the most aristo-
cratic in Europe, need our apprecia-
ton, and they are getting it."

Valdosta, Ga. Jan: 24.-Judge Grif-

dudes who appeared before him to-day
Nat Porter and Arthur Graham were
the negroes who were mentioned in

country negroes out of their money
through gambling schemes. So sue
cessful have the two negroes been that
both have managed to accumulate
money Both went in court this morn

and then resume operations. Judge
Griffin was too sharp for that. When
the plea of guilty was offered. the
judge promptly fixed the sentence at
one year on the chaingang. Both ne
groes had money with them to pay
their fines, but the Judge allowed no
alternative from the sentence to the
chaingang.
The next case was against John
Houser. a colored barber, who pounced
upon negro woman named Matte
Alexander and gave her a beating.
The woman had him arrested and he
was sent to the chaingang for one
year, in default of a fine of $50.

was made this morning to wreck the
east bound passenger train on the
Plant System at a point about eight
miles east of this city and this side of

piled upon the track, but they were
discovered in time to stop the train
before it crashed into them. The cross
ties were put upon the track at
place where the road is as straight as
an arrow for many miles, making II
easy for the engineer to see miles
ahead of him in clear weather. This
morning was very foggy, and but for
the fact that the eastbound train, at
S o'clock, contained only two coaches
and was therefore easily controlled,
it might have run into the obstruc-
ton, with serious consequences. AZ
message was sent to this city after
the sheriff to try and find out the
guilty parties. Sheriff Passmore and
his deputy left at once for the scene
and have not returned te the city at
this writing.
