To The Sea Coast Echo:
Here in this old historic CITY by
the sea is so much of interest Tint
one could spend weeks and not be
weary.
Like Cornelia, the mother Of
the Gracchi, who referred to her
sons as jewels, South Carolina
points to her sons as her proudest
boast. At every turn is q nlonu.
ment commemorative. It's streets
and squares bear their names
From historical point of view
old st. Michaers church, which
has been told of in song and story,
should come first.
The Memorial Tablet, which i.
seen on entering, tells its own his
tory: "Parish of ST.. Michael, es.

In the centre of the high old

In 1862 1t was occupied by Gen.

of Lorne and his wife, the Prin-
cess Louise sat in it, as did Lafay-
ette and other celebrities.
The name, "GovernOr's Pew"
was given it because it was set
apart for the use of that official
and his council by act of the Le-
gislature, which provided for the
building of the church.

ORATOR AND ESsAYIsT.

In the national capitol there
have been held historical memo
rial ceremonies over two of ou:
assasinated presidents. In the
spring ofi1882 James G. Blaine
delivered there before both houses
of Congress, the President, his
cabinet, other high offic'aIs of our
government, the representatives
of many foreign governments and
a splendid assemblage OF Ameri-
can manhood apd womanhood an
address upen the life and charac-
ter of James A. Garfield which
can never be forgotten by those
who heard it and which has touch
ed the hearts of millions who have
read it.
A few days on the same scene
and amid like surroundings John
Hay eulogized William Mckinley
in an address as grand and as
beautiful as BIaine's tribute to
Garfield.
Both of these addresses will
live; both are superb expressions
of high and ennobIing sentiment;
both masterpieces Of eloquence.
Each concluded with q peroration
every word of which will be fami-
liar to the American people for
generation to come. The last
words Of the Blaine address were:
"As the end drew near his early
craving for the sea returned. The
stately mansion of power had
been to him the wearisome hospi-
tai of pain, and he begged to be
taken from his prison walls, from
its oppressive, sitting air, from
its homeliness and its hopeless
ness. Gently, silently the love of
a great people bore the pale suf-
ferer to the longed-for healing of
the sea, to 1--we or to die as God
should will, within sight of its
heavIng pillows, within sound of
its manifold voices. With wan,
fevered face, tenderly lifted to the
cooling breeze, he looked out visit
fully upon the oceans changing
wonders; on its far sails; on its
restless waves, rolling shoreward
to break and die beneath the noon
day sun; on the red clouds of even
ing, arching low to the horizon;
on tho serene and shining path
way of the stars. Let us think
that his dying eyes read mystic
meaning which only the rapt and
parting soul may knew. Let US
believe that in the silence of the
receding world he heard the great
waves breaking on farther shore
and felt already upon his wasted
brow the breath of the eternal
morning"
The last words of Mr.. Hays
eulogy of Mckinley were:
"There is not one of US but
feels prouder of his native land
because the august figure of Wash
ington presided over its begin
nings; no one but vows a tender
er love because Lincoln poured
out his blood for it; no one but
must feel his devotion for it; no
one but must feel his devotion for
his country renewed and kindled
when he remembers how McKin-
leved, revered and served it,
showed in his life how a citizen
should live and in his last hour
taught us how a gentleman should
live and in his last hour taught us
how a gentleman could die"
The Kansas City Star makes a
discriminating comment when it
says that these passages illustrate
the difference between the orator
and the essayist. The words of
Mr.. Hay are comparatively cold;
those Of Mr.. Blaine pulsate with
life and emotion.

Mississipprs Primary Election Law
The New Orlcans stateg appa.

The New Orleans States appa-
rcntly likes the Mississippi cleo
tion law. Inlhe course of an ar
ticle discussing the various fea-
lures of the new statute,i it says:
according to the terms of the
bill nominating conventions will
soon be things of the past with
the exception only that such as
semblegeS are to be held every
four years to name delegates to
the national conventions aud to
name candidates for Presidential
electors. All other nominations
will be made by primary elections
In this way United States senator
are to he chosen which is one of
the best features of the law as
their election is by the vote of the
people and thus large corpora
tions are deprived of the oppor-
tunity of " working the legisla-
ture" and securing the election
of a candidate who will be more
than willing to serve them in the
United States Senate" %
The Mississippi Bureau Depart
ment of the New Orleans Plea
yune. with its "Current Com
ment," continues to bear the inn
press of Edgar S. Wilson'S clear
mind and strong personality.
With the discriminating intellect
to foresee and understand the
needs of Mississippi and the cour-
age to boldly proclaim what he
believed to be right and best for
the State and her people. Mr..
Wilson has for wears been a po-
tent factor, by his work on the
Picayune, in shaping and crystal
izing public sentiment along the
lines of moral, educational, poll
tical and industrial progress. Some
of the most conspicuous evidences
of advancement in this respect are
directly traceable to the inspira-
tion of his pen and the ability
ani persistency with which he has
champ:oned the reforms he es-
poused. He has always stood for
law and order, clean politics, hon
esty in the public service and the
highest development of Mississip-
prs splendid natural resources.
No man in Mississippi of his years
has greater reason to he proud of
what he has accomplished for his
State than Edgar s. Wilson,
Brookhayen Leader.

Peace Meeting
Not Hopeful.

Pretoria, May 26.--The prevalence
throughout South Africa of the opti.
mistic feeling in regard to the peace
negotiations is hardly based on solid
facts. The protraction of the confer.
ence at Vereeniging is not necessarily
a hopeful situation.
The delegates to the conference, I'll
though they have abandoned their hope
OF securing independence, still have
many points of difference with the
Government, while an obstinate minor.
ity continues to regard the resumption
OF hostilities as the best outcome of
the present situation and at any mo.
ment these points of difference may
be accumulated into refusal to contin.
ue the negotiations.
1t is most unlikely that those who
are in favor of peace will throw up the
sponge SO long as a decent minority is
DESTROYS of continuing the struggle,
and all these opposing elements must
be taken into account before it is pos
sible to give any sort of prediction as
to the issue of the present negoti&
lions.
Forty-six Beers, with their wagons
and cattle, surrendered at Balmoral
Transvaal, yesterday.
London, May 26.-The Daily Mail
this morning says the Cabinet Council
to be held today will decide upon
points of detail mostly of a financial
nature, which have been raised by the
Beers in the peace negotiations. Great
Britain's decision in the matter then
will be communicated to the Boer con.
ference by the delegates at Pretoria,
says the paper and being the best OBJ
tainable terms, they will almost surely
be accepted. The results should be
announced officially either Thursday
or Friday of this week, probably on
Friday, the day upon which King Ed.
wards birth is celebrated. Peace is
quite certain says the Daily Mail, and
the delegates at Pretoria are only en-.
gagged in endeavoring to sugar coat the
pill for the Vereeniging conference ia
swallow.
The Daily Mail says further; "our
dispatches from Pretoria assert that
numerous communications are passing
between Lords Kitchener and Miner
in South Africa and London.
Lord Kitchener, although he is stin
full of energy, is much aged in appear.
ance as a result of the severe and con.
tinuous strain which he has under.

that the recent negotiations have prov.
ed Lord Kitchener to be great diplo.
matist as well as a great soldier.

nitude of the difficulties Lord Kitch.
ener has had to contend with. The
Boer leaders are all deeply impressed
with his personality and trust him i'm.

South Africa, has gracefully admitted
that the ultimate credit for the accom-.
plishment of the great task is due to

RAILWAY RUM BLES.

Ireland claims the honor of the first
electric railway in the United King.
DOM
1t is said that the cheapest railway
fares in the world are to be found in
Hungary.
Denmark has a government railroad
system of 1,167 miles and 525 miles of
private railroads.
The Servian, Roumanian and Bulga-
rian railroads are owned exclusively
by the respective governments.
Travellers on Prussian railways whose
baggage, through no fault of their
own, fails to arrive with them can now
have 1t sent on request free to their
houses.
The difficulty Of railway construction
in some parts Of Africa is illustrated
by the fact that on the Freetown- Mat
tru line, in Sierra Leone, eleven steel
bridges had to be built in distance of
only thirty kilometers.
