The Name of the War.

Columbia state
 The New York Evening Post makes a very sensible comment on General Gros- venor's insistence that the Confederates were '.rebels." The Evening Post says: General Grosvenor, of Ohio declares that. with his latest breath. he will call the war of ls61-65 the war of the rebillion," and that he cannot endure having it styled .'the civil war;" or the war be- tween the States" General Grant, almost with his latest breath-in the con cluding paragraph of his Personal Memoirs-referred to 1t as ''the war be- tween the States" General Grosvenor has the right to use whatever term suits him best, as General Grant had an equal right As regards the people generally. however, and the nomenclature which will be commonly employed in the future. nobody who observes the expressions now used can doubt that the civil war is the term which will win acceptance. Only among old fashioned people at the South does one longer hear the war between the States" and one of the younger gen. eration in the North Is not apt to say "the war of the rebellion" The ten- rency everywhere and always is towards the shortest of several expressions for the same idea, and in this case the briefest term has the added advantage of being thoroughly descriptive. This conclusion will no doubt prove correct. The war between the States" from the Southern view point is the accurate and hence the proper term. and there IS really nothing about 1t which any North ern person. however ardent an opponent of States rights. should object But il is rather lengthy for common use. and if our Union friends prefer the shorter term we ought to be willing to meet

Letters to The Editor.
The Educational Awakening.

Editor The Advertiser.
 The educational awakening in the cations of the times. The principal news papers, in editorials and in articles con- uibuted by thoughtful men and women. may be said to be taking the lead in those of older date, and the usual re- ports from superintendents. the Peabody and the Slater funds. and the Bureau of Education. fortunately, other potential fully in the promotion of every form of valuable educational work. and espe- cially In the development and betterment of our public school systems.
 A few years ago conferences were held at Capon Springs. which grew into the Winston-Salem conference. which crys- taliSed in the Southern Education Board" composed in part of such South ernmen as Alderman. Curry. Frissell. ern men as Ogden. Baldwin. Shaw. Pea body, Page and Hanna of Indianapolis. The Rev. Edxar G. Murphy. who has siEnalized his zeal and ability fin the Secretary of this Board. Quite a com petition grew up among different cities for the honor and benefit of being chosen as the place for the next meeting of the Board. On invitation of the Legislature University of the State at that place claims the privilege of entertaining the body. The Athens people are making great preparations for the meeting, and the interest felt in it, it is thought. will bring together the greatest assemblage ever held by the conference. Papers, ad- drsses and discussions will come from some very distinguished men and women from the South and the North.
 Another and quite distinct organization has been effected. which. In due time, is to be incorporated as the General Ed ucation Board" for the purpose of pro- noting Southern education. It is desir- able that this Board shall not be con- founded. in speech and thought. with the
 Southern Education Board" composed somewhat of the same persons; its pur- poses are larger and more permanent, and 1t will control. under the wise dis crehon of the Executive Commitete, Q larger sum of money. William H. Bald. win has been chosen as the chairman of the Board of Trustees and pr. Wallace Buttrtck as the executive officer. Asso- ciated with them are J. |. MeCurry. F. F.. Gates. D. c. Gilman. M. K. Jesup. K. C. Ogden, w. H. Page, George Foster Peabody, Albert Shaw and others. The purposes. as published are to develop the public school system, especially in rural districts: to aid in the maintenance and improvement of educational institu- tions already established; to further the establishment of training schools for teachers. especially those designed t' educate teachers of industrial and man.

Why the Gospel Isn't Gree '

Church economist.
 Once upon a time the Church Economist ventured on a definition which gained considerable currency, to wit: Free pews, pews that some one else pays for. Added years and experience have con firmed us in this view of the case.
 For example. we have just run over the ta ble of disbursements for the church year. in one of our large (and very demo- cratic) city churches. and we find these items: Coal, $2SS. "A; gas. $2l4,59: electrici- ty. s3o9So: plumbing, $117.sS; special re- pairs. $1521o.
 Whether those bills are met by cal culated tax on space occupied or by a methodical system of subscriptions. or by spasmodic and hysterical appeals" to bridge over "crises." or by large dona- tions or income-bearing endowments by rich friends, 1t is none the less true that public worship in this country is expen- sive. Somebody has to pay for the seat you sit in.
 All of which is respectfully submitted to the church tramp, who is so outraged because not shown at once to the best pew on the middle aisle, and who drops a nickel in the ofrertory plate with an air that plainly says: What a parody on free salvation these everlasting collec- tions are.

FAKES AND THrrR AUTHORS.

The Topeka State Journal allows itself to be worried over the fake story sent out about the Kansas baby of three weeks old which has predicted six years of famine in that State, and wonders how people can believe such unreasonable tales. It is certainly pity that such stories should be sent out, but there are certain people who seem to think 1t good newspaper work to make up . thoroughly unreason- able and impossible story and get 1t printed and copied all over the country. The less reason there Is in 1t the u.ors they congratulate themselves on their smartness.
 If such fakes as this one from Kansas were written and published in such man. ner that everybody on reading would ur- derstand that 1t was only intended to amuse and not to be believed. no harm would be done, but that Is not the case. As general thing. more pains are taken with a story of this kind to make it ap- pear reliable and to deceive the people into believing 1t than would be devoted to an account of an actual occurrence. It matters not how thoroughly unreason- able and false the story Is If the maker of it can get it into a respectable paper as a statement of facts he Is happy.
 In the case of the Kansas baby story. no real harm was done te any person. as it's falsity was known at home and mo- body was deceived or injured by 1t. but the harm in all such cases Is to the news papers which become the victims of the fakers. When the readers of a newspaper learn that they have been made the vic- tims of such fraudulent story as the one sent out from Kansas, they naturally lose confidence in the paper. for they do not know whether to believe anything they read in 1t or not, and, of course, the paper loses both reputation and pa- tronage. It really seems that there ought to be some means of protecting responsi- ble journals from such imposition or of punishing the parties who are responsi- ble. A He which is sent out under the guise of truth is the most dangerous of ! all lies.

MANY NEW NATIONAL BANKS
Have Been Authorized in the Past
 Two Weeks.

TWO weeks. Washington Special to New Orleans
 Times-Democrat.
 The era of good crops, new commercial and industrial enterprises and prosperous general trade is still evident in the man ner of applications filed with the Comp troller of the Currency to organize l1a- tionai banks. During the first week of March, just about two years after the passage of the latest important currency act sixteen of these applications were Ap- proved by the Comptroller. and the av- craze continue at more than two q day. banks was one to convert State bank under the provisions of the act of l9o0. Of the sixteen approved applications re- ferred to it is noticeable that ten were from parties wishing to organize with 8 capital of $25,0oo the minimum amount all lowed by the new law; two were for s2oo.- 900 capitalization. one for $100.000, one for $b.000 and two for $5o.000.
 The great majority of the applications indicate an extension of the national banking business to comparatively small communities. The Middle West and South arc conspicuous in these applications to establish new barking institutions Among the towns represented among the Mount Sterling Ky; Enloe. Tex: Pratt Kan; Tuscaloosa. Ala: Allentown. Pa: Leesville, La.; Farmersburg. Ind; Water ford. O.: San Augustine. Tex; Drayton, N L' foungstoWn. O.. cushing, O. T.. f; Smithsburg. Md; Frankfort, Ind; Colo rado City. Col; Sutersville. Pa.
 During the same short period certifi- cates were issued to six other national banks. all of which. except one, were $200, 900. In connection with the activity of the national banks. it is worth men, tioning that while number of banks are reducing their circulation up to the total legal maximum of $s,000.0o0 per month other banks are increasing their volume of circulating notes so that the net de- crease, if it exists at all, is very small.

 ment as Rear Admiral.

ment as Rear Admiral.
 Washington Special to New York World.
 No officer in the navy reaching the rank of d flag officer was eyer shown greater considera ation than Captain Crowninsnieia. whose nomination for Rear-Admiral has just been sent to the Senate.
 Captain Crowninshield months ago pick ed out the command he desired when 1t came time for him to hoist his nag as commander of a squadron. He selected the European station, having in mind the fact that the American squadron in European waters during June would take a conspicuous part in the naval demon stration incident to the coronation of King Edward. He also selected for his flagship one of the newest biggest and most formidable warships. the Illinois.
 His wishes in every respect were acced- ed to- for at the Department no officer in credit Is given him in the highest degree for the work of the navy during the Spanish-American war.
 Other officers who have reached the rank of Rear-Admiral have not been treated so considerably. They have been obliged to take whatever might be open at the time. Admiral schley. for in- South American station. the one least de- sired of all. The squadron originally as- signed him was not in keeping with the dignity of the rank of its commander.
 The action of the Senate upon Crown inshield's nomination is being watched with much interest in naval circles. While 1t Is well understood that fight that. the administration Is strong enough in the Senate to carry him through. Crowninshield Is backed by Senator Platt of New York.

A CORN CROP IS IND1sPENsAB1E

Southern farmers cannot afford a fail- ure in a corn crop. In fact, there is not much margin in cotton production at the average price received for the past ten years even when the necessary corn and meat are produced on the farm.
 When all or nearly all of these prime necessities have to be purchased from the West, the result will show a loss. ~ This Is generally understood, but the growing of cotton is such a seductive oc- cupation that Southern planters usually necessary supply. provided the seasons are entirely favorable. They do not go to the expense of fertilizing their corn as they do their cotton. but trust to luck and the natural fertility of their almost exhausted soil. The result Is about every three years out of five the West has to come to our rescue or there would be a famine.
 It is not good policy on the part of the planter to increase the number of bales of cotton at the expense of the produc- tion of home supplies. for he thereby lowers the price of the staple by over- production and diminishes his own and his neighbors' purchasing power.
 There is one way by which the farm can always be assured suf11ciency of corn, and that is to plant a liberal acreage in early corn and afterwards plant a good variety of late corn. He will necessarily strike the early or the late rains and in either event make a crop.
 More attention should be paid to the selection of seed. It often means the diff. ference between success and failure Properly selected seed will usually yield five to eight bushels more per acre than unsolicited seed. all things being equal
 Corn should be planted in good land ol fertilized as liberally as cotton, and with proper fertilizing the yield should be from thirty to sixty bushels to the acre. Cotton seed, cotton seed meal, acid phosphate and barn yard manure are al excellent fertilizers for corn.

UTILIZING COTTON SEED.

The showing made by the United States Census that the seed from the cotton crop is worth s42, ,ooO. 900. whereas formerly 1t was largely wasted, is considered by many people as a wonderful gain for the Bouth.
 In times past, when the lands of the South were fresher and more fertile. they lid not require fertilization to produce good crops, and the farmers did not util- lze their seed by returning them to the soil. Now, however, after continuous cropping for sixty years. their lands re- auire the return of the seed or their equivalent, in order to make profitable yields.
 Under the tenant and share system largely in vogue in the South. the seed are sold to oil mills at combination or trust prices, and but a small per cent of the product Is returned to the soil. If the seed produc d by each acre of cotton was returned to the soil that yielded it annually. the crop would be larger and the land greatly benefited. In fact. the land would never "wear out"
 As conditions now are. the rental de- rived from a large proportion of the farm- ers Is paid by impoverishing the soil, and is not a profit as many suppose. It is like one continually checking on a bank account without making any deposits. ..
 During the past season the farmers have sold their seed to the mills or their agents at from ten to twelve dollars per ton. In order to fertilize their lands, they will be compelled to buy the seed meal at from s24 to s26 per ton. which contains only small part of the true fertilizing value of the whole seed. They cannot afford it, and the consequence is the land will be cultivated and more of the na- tural fertilizers withdrawn.
 While the amount of money the cotton seed crop yields appears large. in the ag- gregate, it is absorbed mostly by a few combinations and taking that which should in all good and successful farming be returned to the soil. but the trade that is built up in this commodity is not an unmixed blessing. The amount paid out in money for commercial fertilizers far exceeds the value of the cotton seed sold and does not build up the soil as would the return of the whole cotton seed.
