What Senator Latimer Has Done for

the Palmetto State.
Washington, March Pin view
of the fact that Senator Latimer has
received so many letters from all
parts of the State making Inquiries
concerning the work that is contem-
plated by the department of agricul
ture in connection with the expert
mems III tobacco culture that are
now being madein Darlington county,
he has asked the press of the State
to copy the following letter from
Prof. Milton Whitney, Chief of the
Bureau of Soils, Department of Ag-
riculture, who has Immediate charge
of the work:
Hon. A. G. Latimer, Z. S. Senate,
Washington, D. G.
Sir: In view of the great interest
which you have taken in the work of
the Bureau of Soils, and your Efforts
to have this work extended to South
Carolina, I take great pleasure in in
forming you that, as result of the
soil survey of last year, at which time
we discovered q soil in South Carolina
that we think adapted to the Cuba
filler tobacco, we have under our in
creased appropriation this year been
able to place tobacco man in this
state to follow up this soil survey work
This party left Washington last Fri
day and is now established with
headquarters at Hartsville, Darling
ton county, where an experimental
planting of three acres will be made
on the farm of Mr.. J. J. Lawton of
that place. This tobacco will be cul-
ti7ated and handled entirely by our
own men under the supervision Of one
of our own experts, We hope to be
able to demonstrate the practicability
of producing high grade filler leaf
very similar and equally as desirable
as that which is now being imported.
For the present the Investigations
will be of an experimental character
to test the suitability of the soil and
other conditions, to determine as to
the best methods to be used and for
the purpose of obtaining all informa.
tion necessary for our guidence. If
the experiments are successful, it is
our present intentions to keep the to-
bacco party in South Carolina for an
other season at least in order to be
able to instruct the planters as to the
proper methods. Very respectfully,
Milton Whitney, Chief of Bureau.

that. Both the government and pri-
vate estimates have reduced their fig
ures now to about the 100000. 900 crop,
lowering the condition on account of
flood damages; in other words they
have relieved the market Of 100, 000,-
900 bushels of imaginary wheat.
In the view of this paper the floods
in the Southwest did but little dam
age to wheat. and we do not lower
condition on that account. In fact,
the condition, according to Il ad-
vices, has been we'll maintained in the
Southwest since May L; the weak
nesses were in the main apparent
May i.
In the general way consumption has
overtaken production the world over,
so much so that the bear is the one
who runs now, not the bull. u has
been so for a year, and the indications
are that 1t will be so for the year to
come. 1t is not safe to venture to sell
grains at present prices on the theory
that large profits will be secured.
The inevitable reactions will come;
indeed, wheat prices may sag two or
three cents, but that will not alter. in
our judgment. the hardening tendency
in the market throughout the year.
Europe will apparently have to buy
about 8 1000. 900 bushels more of wheat
and -four than last year. This will
equalize the crops of Europe and
America and leave them about on the
relative basis of last year. The Paci-
fic coast is not going to produce heavi-
ly, SO that if Australia and Africa need
supplies, the price situation in the
United States will be strengthened
accordingly.
The Northwest spring wheat states
of America are promising a nice crop
of wheat. but July 4 will be early
enough to check up prospects definite
ly. In Canada there is a drouth in
the Eastern districts that may in some
degree effect the prospective increase
of $4,000. 900 bushels in western Ca
NADIA.
The "cinch" enjoyed by the bear for
many years in selling produce futures
has passed to be followed by the day
of the bull. 1t will continue until a
record crop is raised.

The efforts Of the leading anti-impe-
rialists of the nation to stir up trou-
bic from General Miles recent report
on Philippine conditions appear to
have met with little success. Con-
gresham Spalding furnishes some in
teresting correspondence on this sub
ject. He received some time ago a
letter from Mr.. Herbert Welsh Of Phil
adelphia, asking him to request the
secretary of wal to furnish a full and
complete copy of General Miles report,
claiming that some of it had been sup
pressed. Congressman Spalding de-
clined to comply with the request, for
the reason that the material parts of
the report had already been published,
and because, as Mr.. Spalding asserts,
General Miles is not an unprejudiced
and fair critic of affairs in the Philip
pines. Congressman Spalding for
warded copies of the correspondence
to the secretary of war, and received
a letter from Secretary Root, stating
that these circular letters were sent
to all the persons named in the book
entitled: who's Who in America"
1901 in number. OF these 1851
seventy-six complied with the request
of the circular by writing to all or some
of the officers designated therein.
N~inety-eight forwarded the circulars
to the war department, eighteen with
out comment and eighty with express
sions of strong disapproval Of the cir
cular. The remaining 1877 appear
to have put the circular in the waste
paper basket. Secretary Root replied to
the small percentage of persons to
whom WEIGH had sent his circular, in
a letter in which he stated the facts
in the case, that is, that the report
had been given in full to the various
press associations and that no attempt
had been made to suppress any part
of it. The small number of persons
who took the matter up with the de-
partment would indicate that the peo-
pie of the country are satisfied with
the attitude of the administration, and
its work in the Philippines and have
taken little stock in the charges made
by General Miles.

The first assistant postmaster gen
eral has completed a readjustment of
salaries of presidential postmasters
throughout the country, based on re-
ceipts for the four quarters ending
March 81. The showing for the north
west is a very good one, indicating. as
do all other pointers, that the past
fiscal year has been very prosperous.
In Minnesota 10 postmasters will
have their salaries increased. and only
three will draw less than during the
current year. OF those increased
ninety-five will draw 800 more and
fifteen 5000 more; the three reduc-
tons will be for 800 each. In
North Dakota, salaries of twenty post.
masters will be increased 500 each.
seven by 5000 each, three by $500
and two by $500. Two postmasters
will each draw $500 less than former
ly. In South Dakota the increases
Will be: Twenty-Five by 800: six by
5000, one by $500. There will be no
reductions. Ninety-ive Iowa post.
masters will each draw 500 more
next year than this. FIVE will draw
5000 more and one $500 more. Thir-
teen will be reduced to the fourth
class. The changes in Wisconsin will
be sixty-eight increased 800 each,
eight 5000 each, and five reduced 500
each.
