THE REPUBLICAN national COM
mittee has very thoroughly ex-
plotted the fiambuoyant Roosevelt ca
blegram: "Perdicsris alive. or Raisuli
dead" Perdicaris was a Greek who
came to this country and was natural
lied for business reasons. He accumu-
lated fortune and Immediately went
abroad to spend IT. One day he was
kidnapped from his residence at Tan
gier. Morocco. and the newspapers
printed columns about the affair. Pres
ident Roosevelt was most vigorous in
his messages to the American represen-
tative and the sultan Of Morocco was
given TO understand that there would
be all kinds Of trouble If he didn't act
promptly
How different is the presidents atti-
tude toward Russia in its treatment

rights that any Russian is bound to

the United States or whether he was
born in Russia and became a natural
lied citizen Of this country. he is not
permitted to enter restricted Russian
territory. Yet We have not heard Mr..
Roosevelt laundering at The car for
his contemptuous treatment Of Ameri-
can citizens
Nobody is asking special considera-
ton for American Jews from Russia
All that is asked for them is the same
treatment that is accorded to any
Americas citizen. It is as Americans
that they should be treated. for there
are no more loyal American citizens in
this nation today than the Jews 1t is
idle for President Roosevelt to say he
cannot force concessions from Russia.
He is vigorous enough in his treat ment
Of the weaker nations, He let tie sui
tan Of Morocco believe this nation
would blow his little domain into
smithereens if Perdicaris were not pro-
duced. Why should he not show some
vigor in his demand on Russia for fair
treatment for American citizens2
And yet instead of pressing Russia.
instead of telling her that she must
treat Americans decentiy, the state de-
partment issues ills circular:
The laws of Russia exclude from
Russian territory, except by special
permission. all people of the Jewish
faith, and While this government has

And the dispatches announced the
other day that negotiations are still
in progress. Also the American Jew is
still excluded from. Russia.

ALINE TO HAVANA.

The Chamber of Commerce is work
ing along right lines in its efforts 10
secure steamship line between this
city and Havana. Speedways and con-
ventions and other similar things are
doubtless helpful in calling attention to
our city. but what we want is some
thing that will help 10 increase our
wealth and population. II we are TO
grow great and prosperous We must
have something that will support the
people. We must have more commerce
and Industries.
People are not coming here to make
their homes unless there is something
that will afford them a living. Our
energies, therefore, ought to be used
ships and factories.
We have persistenty advocated a line
of steamships TO Havana. and also one
to Porto Rlcan ports. 1t seems there
is a pretty fair prospect of line to
Havana. At least that is the informa-
Chamber of Commerce.
OF course, it is not to be expected
that a line from this city to Havana
would pay from the start. Business for
the line would have TO be worked up.
There is no reason. however, for
doubling that such line would pay in
the course of a few months.
And there is another advantage
which line to Havana would be to
this city. 1t would attract the atten-
ton of the countries to the south of
us and eventually bring US in touch,
commercially with them. With the
building of the Panama canal they are
going to take on new life. There will
be an immense immigration to them.
and their populations will undergo a
change Their trade will become much
greater than 1t is, and Savannah ought
TO be in a position to get a share
of 1t.
OF course the Gulf and South At
lantic ports have great expectations in
connection with the Panama canal. The
better the commercial connections of
Savannah are with the countries to the
south of us, the more nearly viii her
expectations be realized.
The efforts of the Chauber of Com
merce in behalf of line of steamships
to Havana shouldn't be relaxed, no
matter how many obstacles to such
line are found. The line would be a
good thing for this city.

1.Ooo.oOo For SILLY.

Mr.. Daniel j. Sully. the ex-king of
of talking for the Northern newspa-
pers these days. From what he is
saying one would be led to believe
that he knows more about the cotton
business and the production of cotton
than any man now living or that has
ever lived. He says he has made a
study of cotton for eighteen years.
There are men who have studied it
twice eighteen years who don't make
the pretensions to the knowledge of
the plant that Mr.. Sully does.
He is still harping on his hobby that
the reason the cotton crop doesn't in
crease in volume is that the cotton
seed has deteriorated greatly. Mr.
Sully, however. hasn't produced a sin
gle fact to support his contention that
there has been great deterioration in
the seed. AS matter of fact well
informed cotton planters insist that
there has been no deterioration; that
the best seed is now saved for plant
ing as it has always been. They point
to the fact that the yield per acre is
now about what it was a quarter of
a century ago, other conditions being
equal
The real inwardness of Mr.. Sullys
talk about seed deterioration and the
wastage in the handling of cotton is
probably found in the fact that he is
soon to have machinery on the mar
ket for ginning cotton and compress
ing 1t. There is no doubt great vast
age in the handling of cotton, but
there is nothing new in that. If,
however, he can offer machinery which
will save the wastage in handling he
will confer a boon on the cotton plant
er and factor.
Mr.. Sully had a long interview
in one of the New York papers on
Tuesday in respect to cotton and his
affairs. One thing he spoke of is
rather new in this section of the South
This new thing is found in the fol-
lowing question and answer:
us it true, Mr.. Sully." asked the
reporter, that the Southern farmers
present to you for what you have done
for them and to assist your future
work."
Yes. that Is true" said Mr.. Sully.
81 have received a number of letters
touching upon that point. l have not
as yet decided what action l shall take
with regard to it,"
1t may be that the cotton plant
ers feel like giving Mr.. Sully pot of
money for bulling cotton, though, from
the testimony before the commission
er in bankruptcy, it seems Mr.. Sully
didn't buy and hold cotton, but jump
ed in and out of the market just like
other cotton spectators. We feel
sure, however, that If he decides to
accept the 100000 it will take a good
deal of his spare time to go around
and collect it.

THE DANIELS CONTEMPT CASE.

The fine-S2. O0O-which Judge Purneil
of the United States District Court at
| Raleigh, n. c., imposed upon Josephus
Daniels editor of the News and OBJ
server of Raleigh, for contempt of
court on Tuesday, was so large that it
made a sensa tional news item and at
tracted attention throughout the en-
tire country. And the matter promises
to become even more sensational since
Mr.. Daniels, who has not paid the fine,
and who says he will not pay it, has
applied to Chief Justice Fuller of the
United States Supreme Court for d
writ of habeas corpus.
Mr.. Daniels has a way of speaking his
mind pretty freely when he feels he is
in the right, and when he takes po-
sition on a question he doesn't seem
to think there is a possibility that he
may be wrong.
The case in which Judge Purnell
fined him $1,000 is that OF thee Atlantic
and North Carolina Railroad, for
which road the judge has appointed
receiver. About two-thirds of the
stock of the road is owned by the state
of North Carolina, and il is to be in
ferred from what has appeared in the
public prints that the people of the
state didn't want a receiver appointed.
From what can be gathered about the
case the application for a receiver was
made by stockholder who owned
So, 700 worth of stock, and Mr.. Daniels,
in his article, intimated that this
stakeholder did not make the applica
tion for the purpose of protecting his
stock, because the state offered TO give
a bond to safeguard him against loss.
Mr. Daniels further said that there had
not been an instance of a receivershlp
of a large property in North Carolina
that had not resulted d'sastrously to
the property, and he expressed the
opinion that Judge Purnelrs court had
no call to interfere in the case of the
Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad
It will be recalled that some time
ago Mr.. V. e. McBee, on the applica-
ton of a man named Finch. was APP
pointed receiver of this property, and
trouble in the state courts on account
of it. If we are not mistaken it was
charged that the receivership was a
| part of a plan of certain interests to
| get control of the road.
Mr.. Daniels said in his article, that
Mr.. McBee and the receiver that was
| appointed a few days ago, were so
close together that II one should be
called Twidledee the other would APP
propriately be called Tweedledum."
The inference from what appeared
| in Mr.. Daniels article was that
through the receivership the state was
/ in danger of losing its property He
wanted whatever action that was
taken against the road to be taken in
the state courts. In this connection he
said IF the servants Of the people
commit mistakes or wrongs. the people
can correct them. II federal court
judges appointed by hostile presidents
1 upon alien recommendation commit
I wrongs there IL no immediate remedy"
IL wouldn't be surprising II this case
shouh attract much more attention
than Il has yet. There is no doubt
4 from what IL appearing In the dis
patches that the sympathy OF the peo-
pie Of North Carolina is with hlr. Dan
iels.

Robert D. Carson of the Geological
Society recently made a trip to New
York and greatly delights in telling an
experience he had with an article which
is now fortunately unknown in this
city-a horse car, says the Philadel-
phia Press. Mr.. Carson said that he
was riding along in the little dinky
affair with several other passengers
when suddenly the car, in crossing a
switch, jolted the front wheels off the
tracks. Rain was falling in an in
dustrious manner and almost every
one Was feeling out of sorts. When
the wheels left the tracks all the good
humor left the car, and every one was
angry. After considerable delay the
conductor put his head in the door
and shouted
Say, all youse people in de back of
dis car sit still, and all youse in de
front come out and help put de car
back on de tracks" Mr.. Carson
and several other men distinguished by
the title of "youse people" got out
in the driving rain and pushed the
front wheels of the car back on the
tracks. Then the dinky little horse
car with it's cargo of "youse people"
bowled merrily along the streets of up
to-date, New York.
