Nashville American.
A party of Republican Senators and Rep.
resentatives is to visit Alabama this week
on the invitation of Representative
Thompson, of the Fifth Alabama District,
who will act as escort and host of the
Northern visitors. The purpose of the
visit is to get view at close range of the
Southern negroes, and to personally in
spect tue actual conditions and situation
as TO the life, habits and relations of the
two races.
A more general intercourse and Intimate
personal acquaintance between the people
of the North and South can not fail to be
of mutual benefit. Differences of opinion
will exist; they exist even in small COM
munitles; but there should be no ground
or excuse for nisapprehension or mis-
understanding. These result from too
little intelligent knowledge of the sections
of our common country and of their
people. Travel, social and business in.
tercourse, exchange of ideas, knowledge
of sectional conditions and character these
serve TO liberalize the mind, to broaden
personal views and ideas, to make men
more tolerant, just, fair and intelligent in
their opinions, and to create a better

people of the sections.
Many Southern people have very er.
roneous views of the North and its people,
while large per cent. of Northerners
are densely and inexcusably ignorant of
Southern life, history, character and con-
ditions. The Northern Congressman who
propose to visit the South will find much

HATS AND THE MAN
A Plea for independence in This Neces-
sary Part of Apparel.
Boston Journal.

Boston Journal.
"No form of the rough straw hat will
be stylish this year," says the sartorial
dictator. "The Panama is the thingl"
Now little thing like the price of a
Panama that will last through at least one
transform eight or ten dollars-is of no
consequence, of course. So many OF our
worthy fellow-citizens are locking hard
for ways in which to dispose of their cum
brous income that the munifcence of the
whole American people seems to be taken
for granted by these gentlemen whose
portraits we see every day on the sign
boards.
Personally, we have a strong aversion
to the Panama This aversion has moth
ing to do with the fact that our last straw
hat-a rough pattern, by the way is in
presentable condition, or that we are say.
ing up to 60 to the still receding st. Louis
Fair. The fact lie, the Panama isn't our
style. A man ought to be independent
at least in regard to his hat. We have
always felt friendly toward the few brave,
venerable persons who are yet clinging to
the Daniel Webster hat. There" we
say to ourselves as they hobble by, "there
is strength of neutrality-suspicious."
Surely hat is a sign Of character The
ancients declined to compromise them
selves; they wore no hats. When the
time of honor came they otTere their bare
heads to the laurel. They were not en-
barassed or distorted by the derby, the
stovepipe or the Fedora We can imagine
Caesar strolling along the Via Appia in a
silk tile; but the picture is wholly amusing.
We can also imagine Napoleon dofing a
nice white Fedora to the ladies at
Fontainebleau, but we instantly associate
the wonderful hero of Dresden with Mr..
DeWolf Hopper and the Weber & Fields
chorus No, for all time Caesar shall wear
no tile, and Napoleon the familiar three
cornered hearpiece that, according to
Hugo, showed its broad front to the allies
even after the corpses of his darling
had filled to the level the
sunken road of Chain.
But the number of those WHO hold out
against hat fashions is small.

them rebels and then slaves

TRACES OF LONG-LOST ISLAND
Steamship Captain from Tahiti Makes
Interesting Report to Hydro
graphic Authorities.

Capt. Lawless, Of the steamship
Australia, from Tahiti, thinks he has
found traces of an island, rich in phos-
pilates, discovered by Capt. John De
Graves, of Honolulu, in 1859, and for
which the government and private ex-
petitions have ever since searched in
vain, says a San Francisco report.
Stormy weather and the fact that
he was in charge of mail boat carry
ing passengers prevented Capt. Law
less from more thoroughly investigat-
ing. He has reported the matter to
the photographic authorities. The
latitude of this island is calculated
by De Graves, was about 1850 north.
The longitude he had no means of cal
culating, but thought it was about 1873
west.
Capt. Lawless says he has often
spoken with De Graves about the is
land. A man in Honolulu named Pea
cock has shown his faith in De Graves
story by fitting out two expeditions to
search for the island. Other expedi-
lions have gone out, and De Graves still
lives in the hope of some day sharing
the wealth Of that mid-Pacifc phos-
plate deposit.
The United States steamer Alba
tross twice took hand in the search
in the interests of navigators. The
Albatross' Investigations, in the light
Of Capt. Lawless' information, were
conducted too far north.

MORAL COURAGE
And the Illustration President Roosevelt
is Giving of It.

Cleveland Leader.
President Roosevelt is showing more
courage in dealing with army scandals in
the Philippines, such as the "water cure"
cases and other charges of cruelty. In a
letter to the Protestant Episcopal Bishop
Of Massachusetts the President declares
that he has reserved the right of review
in all trials by court martial, and he adds
that if necessary civil officials as well as
army officers will make the most thorough
investigation of all charges of improper
conduct by Americans.
1t will be impossible for President
Roosevelt to take final action in regard to
the cases of i'll treatment of natives which
has been charged against officers of the
United States Army without giving grave
offense, on one side or the other. The
nature of the points at issue is such that
IN any event there will be harsh criticism
Of the Presidents position. He will be
denounced for undue severity or else for
excessive leniency to the accused officers.
Beyond doubt, the President realizes
this fully. He has heard enough to make
the situation clear in that respect, both
from those who condone admitted charges
of cruelty, on one hand, and those who
believe all accusations and fercely de-
nounce the soldiers of the nation who are
said to have been unduly harsh in crush
ing Filipinos in revolt. But he shows not
the slightest disposition to dodge any bur-
den of his office He will stand respon'
sible for whatever decisive action may be
taken in the case Of General Smith and all
like cases in the Philippines.
1t Is well for the country that this is to
be so, for President Roosevelt has the
confidence of the army and the people
alike, especially as to oil matters concern
ing the honor OF American soldiers and
the American Republic.

SENATOR HoAR made speech IN the

ippine question. lie denounced the Re-
publican policy in connection with the
islands and won the rapturous applause
of the Democratic Senators. The Senator
asserts that the United States forces
should be withdrawn from the Philippines
because it is wrong to force our sovereign
ty upon people against their consent. If
Democratic Senator should take the
floor and demand that the United States
Government should withdraw all control
from the Confederate States upon the
ground that the United States has no
right to govern people without their con-

should be some kind of balance and pro-
portion among its various parts. First
and last names should fit each other. In
this cosmopolitan county there are many
family names which, on account of their
peculiar photographic structure or their
grouping of harsh consonants within a
single syllable, call for especial care.
Were the wise parent whose surname is
harsh and cultural to pick out some
strong, manly or womanly name to
precede it the combination might not only
have dignity, but an attractive and inn
pressive character of its own,
Parents who take account of these

Selecting Names for Children.
Chicago News.

Such comment as has been elected on
the subject lately seems to show dis
position to make light of the solicitude
which a professor of the University Of
Chicago admitted that he felt regarding
the selection of name for this infant son.
The professor was right, however.
1t is a praiseworthy and time-honored
custom which dictates that either the first
or the middle name of child shall perpe-
tuate the memory of some member of the
family. Some lucky fathers and mothers
practically have the matter decided for
them by traditional custom of handing
down family names to posterity. So far,
however, as the parent is free to let bis
fancy range it could be wished that more
fathers and mothers followed the example
of the university professor and devoted
study to the subject, A good name should
have euphony and character. There

the Democratic party year after year.

SENATOR DANIEL made speech in the
Constitutional Convention on the 25th,
and declared himself in unqualified terms
in favor Of submitting the Constitution to
the people. Among other things he said:
"The State convention made a sacred
pledge that the Constitution should be
sent to the people for their ratification or
rejection. That was accepted by the
people and the convention had been called
because of the pledge, and he could never
give his consent to disregard such a com.
pact. He did not believe that the mass
meetings could relieve any man or set
of men from discharging the obligation
imposed by platform upon which they
had been elected. All over the State
the pledge Of the party had been accepted
IN good faith, and in his humble opinion
that pledge should be observed" We
are glad to find Senator Daniel thus
determined to preserve his political in
tegrity, though there be so many men in
the Convention who are willing to violate
sacred pledge.
