said that only condensed version will
published. IT the parts that will be
be given to the public contain the real
meat, OF the v0luminOus report, the
condensation will be desirable, as but
few people have time to read the whole
repo.t, but there will be intense dis
satisfaction ii the public version is gar
blcd for partisan purposes. The voters
want to know who are the guilty ones,
whctI.u. the statute of limitations has
covered their dOings or not, and moth
ing less than the exposure of the whole
nest Of thieves will satisfy them. The
only punishment the people seem able
to bring upon their unworthy servants,
ls by preventing them from again oc
cnryinS GHciai puoiiIOns, and that can
only be accomplished by the truth be-
ing told OF all connected with the scan
dals from the highest to the lowest
Any attempt 10 suppress the evidence
of the participation OF those high IN the
Republican cOunsels in the frauds, will
not satisfy those honestly in favor OF
reform, and will be met by the demand
for the publication of the whole re-
port, cost what it may. The partisan
Republican press will report but little
OF the damaging details OF the connec-
class with the scandals. but the facts
will be culled by the newspapers that
serve the people il they are allow ed
access to the truth.
II mnet be remembered that the ex-
posures of the Post Office frauds have
been wrung from the unwilling Repub-
iican leaders by the force OF public
opinion, and not because they were
anxious to expose tho scoundrels.
Postmaster General Payne, when his
department was first under suspicion,
designated the first exposure of the
frauds as "hot air." and belittled the
whole matter as far as he was able, but
the rival factions in the Post Office
Department were too intent on de-
strOying each other, to permit the evil
dence of the frauds to be kept secret,
and the investigation had to proceed.
II the making of q synopsis of the re-
port Of MIR. BristOw is left to Mt.
Payne, or any of his satellites, but
little evidence damaging to the higher
officials will ever be seen by the public
eye. The Democrats in Congress will
OF course demand that the whole evil
dence be printed, but the minority
party has but little show to force such
action, unless the public vigorously
demands it.

The report brought back from Texas
and Arkansas by q government expert
sounds in most disquieting terms. If
correctly reported, he says that the
cotton regions west Of the Mississippi
river are fatally affected by lhe raw
ages Of the Mexican boil weevil aud
that the insect. appears to be ineradi
oable. He predicts that by rea,on of
it, the trans. Mississippi country in the
south will be forced to abandon cotton
culture. Should that calamity be
forced upon the people Of that region
1t would mean the annual loss Of near
ly $500, 600, 900 in that one cssh crop.
How much they could reooup of that
loss by devoting their lands to other
crops cannot be at all calculated. But
she impoverishing effect upon the
cotton supply Of the world would be
30 appreoiable as to attract universal
attention and regret: Itis 10 be hop.
ed that modern soienoes will be ade.
quate to this new and singular stu.
alton. There WAS q time when the
army worm marched with insatiablo
maw over our cotton fields and neish.r
foods nor FIRE were Of avail against
she devastating columns. But now
We scarcely ever hear the army
wo,m mentioned. Science found
method for its exterGination. In like

SHE RIDES LIKE A MAN.
Miss Alice Roosevelt AStride Causes Inter-
est iii Washington.

a dispatch from Washington says
that Miss Alice Roosevelt has dis
carded the side saddle and conven-
tional habit, and now rides in di-
vided skirts.
The announcement that Miss
Roosevelt was receiving instructions
in the new style Of riding caused a
hutter among Washingtonians, but
the Presidents daughter and Mrs.
Rider who has been teaching Miss
Alice how to sit on a horse the new
way, now pass through the parks
mounted astride without causing
any more comment than the pres
ence of the Presidents daughter
ordinarily provokes.
Miss Roosevelt's adoption of the
new fashion will doubtless popular
ize it in Washington, where the
Presidents family exert so much
influence. Her new riding costume
is modest one Of blue cloth, and
she has charged to the new style OF
riding in such unostentatious man
ner that criticism Of her course has
been avoided
Washington has been slow in
adopting this fashion, which has
been popular in the West for a long
time. Miss Mason, daughter OF
ex Senator Mason, of Illinois, was
the first woman prominent in
Washington society to adopt this
style of riding.

THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION.
Governor Hayward, Conforming To The
Presidents Proclamation, Sets
Apart Thursday, the 10Th

Gov. Hayward has issued his
first Thanksgiving proclamation:
1.-The closing days Of another
year are upon us and the time has
come when, according to the Gus
tom of our people, special day
shall be set apart for thanksgiving
and praise to God cor His mercies
and His care.
'There are many reasons why
gratitude to the great Father of all
should be in our hearts and surely
we should be glad to thankfully
unite in the service of giving ex-
preston, in prayer and praise to
this gratitude.
In conformity, therefore, to the
proclamation of the president of
the United States, 1, D. .. Hey
ward, governor of South Carolina,
do hereby appoint and set apart
Thursday, the 2oth day Of Novem
Der, 1903, as a general thanksgiv-
ing.
"Let all public offices be closed,
let private business and labor of
every kind cease, and with no un-
hallowed thought, let the people
assemble in their accustomed places
of worship and let all give thanks
and praise for mercies past, with
prayers for continuance Of these
blessings through days to come.
Let this day be marked by
remembrance of the poor, the help
less and the fatherless; let no voice
of sympathy be dumb, no generous
hand withhold in making the
sacred time a day of thanksgiving
to all.'
