Webster and Calhoun.

The Springfield Republican says that
when Daniel Webster's marketman had
sued him for long unpaid bill and
got his money, he was so scared at his
temerity that he stopped calling at the
door for orders. The godlike Daniel
asked him why, one day, and the man
confessed that he supposed Mr.. Web
ster would never trade with him again.
"Oh,'' said Webster, ''sue me as often
as you like, but for heavens sake
don't starve me.'' There was never a
time when the great man was not will
ing to owe as much as any body was
willing to let him owe.
It is said that the Riggs family have
as souvenir an unpaid note drawn
by Daniel Webster and endorsed by
Rufus Choate M. Webster was a
great man, but he had weakness
for running into debt, and a want of
alacrity in paying his obligations.
John G. Calhoun, on the other hand,
had none of Mr.. Webster's peculiar
failings. The great South Carolina
statesman was not only peerless in
intellect, but highly moral in all OF
his dealings with his fellow man, and
when he died, no man paid him so
grand a tribute as Daniel Webster.
Before he died, Mr.. Webster was not
in harmony with the New England
fanatical abolitionists and they abused
him scurriously in prose and poetry.
We do not know that the South will
ever raise stature to Daniel Webster,
who was a glorious character despite
his faults, but Gordon Clark declares
that the day is coming when Massa-
chusetts will erect monument to
John g. Calhoun. This, at present,
seems impossible Of realization, but
stranger things than that have hap
pened in this changing and tumultu-
Gus world.-Augusta Chronicle.

session without transacting any busi-
ness, and if, as is expected, the
Speaker announces the committees and
gets the House down to business be-
fore the regular session, the credit for
it will be due the democratic leader.
Mr.. Williams said, 1T is my idea, IN
my representative capacity, that the
right of flibustering is very sacred
'right that ought to be preserved in
tact for very important occasions, when
it might be necessary, perhaps, to rivet
the attention of the country upon
some great legislative wrong and that
it ought not to be fritted away on
small occasions. AS far as the present
interesting fight between the republi-
can Senate and the republican House
in concerned, We on this side have not
much to say, except that it is not our
fight Mr.. Williams also made such
a strong plea for reciprocity with Can
ada that there is a chance Of this be-
ing made party issue in the coming
cmpaign.
Senator Newlands' resolution invit-
ing Cuba to enter the Union has been
much debated in the Senate. Senators
Lodge, Hale and .Platt, of Connecticut
opposed the resolution, arguing that
it would create distrust of the United
States in Cuba, as such an invitation
from our government would be looked
upon as a command. It is believed
that one of the objects of the repub-
lican Senators was to allay the suspic-
ions of the South American countries
who are naturally alarmed at Presi-
dent Roosevelt's attitude toward Col
umbia. Senator Carmack declared that
the Cubans could take no alarm over
Mr.. Newland's resolution. eff they
are alarmed, be said," it is because
of the action of the United States in
using the navy of this country to as
sist a lot Of branch adventures in dis
mboweling all American republic. 1t
is such conduct as this on the part of
our government that makes the Cubans
and others suspicious OF u.s.

LYACnINe IN Chesterfield.
The Usual Crime the Cause
Silent Horsemen Came in the
Moonlight and Did Their
Work.

Special to The State.
Chesterfield, Nov. 23.-News reached
here this morning of the lynching Of
Jim Nelson, coal black negro, near
Jefferson, this county, Saturday night.
The enews was received here very quietly
and elected little comment on the
streets. Chesterfield county has here
tofore been clear of this kind Of
lynching and the illegal hanging Of
Saturday night is the second execc-
tion to occur within her borders in
almost half century.
On Saturday afternoon, Nov. Is, an
attempt was made to outrage tie
7-year-old daughter of Miles ". Por-
ter, prominent farmer of the upper
part of Chesterfield county, by jim
Nelson, a negro laborer employed On
Mr.. Porter's farm.
The girl and some smaller children
were playing at spring near the
house when the attempt was made.
They fran to the house and gave the
alarm and the purpose of the brute
was not accomplished. The negro
took to the woods and early Monday
morning a posse was organized and
for several days secured the woods and
nearby swamps in search of him, but
without success. The father ard
brothers of the child continued the
hunt and Saturday afternoon Mr.. Will
Porter came up with the negro at
Maynard's saw mill near Catarrh.
He carried him to Jefferson and placed
him in the guard house in the after
noon. and about $50 o'clock Saturday
night Mr., Porter and Mr.. E. c.
Ingram started with TIE negro to
Chesterfield to deliver him to the
sheriff. When about three miles from
Jefferson couple of men appeared
from out of the woods, presented re-
volyers and ordered the men IL the
buggy to hold up their hands, which
command was promptly obeyed. They
were then ordered to drive on for
about 200 yards, where a good healthy
limb of large blackjack hung invit-
ingly over the road and the negro was
dragged from tn; buggy and Ingram
and Porter were ordered TO turn about,
and drive for what they were worth.
About 20 or 30 men on horseback were
congregated at this lonely spot and
made quick work of their victim. a
rope was placed around his neck and
he was swung up and left hanging,
while the knights of the cord rooe
silently away into the darkness.

the islands of San Andres, Providence
and Albuquerque, as we'll as other
smaller isalnds in the Caribbean Sea,
