Breaking 1t Gently.

A political lieutenant once announced
to Senator Quay a disastrous defeat,
making the announcement in blunt,
brusque terms, says the New York
Tribune.
Senator Quay gave the man one of
his peculiar direct glances, and smiled
slightly. Then he said:
"You have broken this news gently.
You remind me of an Irishman. This
Irishman had great faith in his diplo-
macy and delicacy, and one day when
a boy was killed at the quarry he told
the men to leave everything in his
hands, and he would break the news
to the boys mother as it should be
done.
$50 he went home, put ON a black
suit and a black tie, and he knocked at
the door of the boys mothers house.
"'Good morrnin, ma'am.' he said.
''Tis a sad accident yer bye Toms gold
watch has had
why said the mother, Tom never
had a gold watch.
"'Sure, an that's lucky said the
news breaker, for there's twenty ton
of rock fallen on him.

One detail of the glorious dash" Of
the Vladivostok squadron to the Japan
sea and the Strait of Korea was the
sinking Of the transport Idzumi off
Kotsu island. The Idzumi was laden
with sick and wounded Japanese SOL
diers from Port Dalny. She was, in
deed, hospital transport, taking help
less men to a place where they could
be nursed and doctored. And the brave
Russians bore down upon this ship and
sank herl What a fine exploit! The
officers and men of the squadron ought
all to be decorated for the deed by their
imperial master, the Car, who stands
for universal peace and brotherly love.
His officers are evidently of those who
make a desert and call 1t peace.

Of New York proposed to nominate
him for Vice President whether he

Correcting history from memory is
a rather hazardous undertaking. Some
days ago Gen. G. b. Williams of Indi-
ana denied in a letter to the New York
Sun that the Rev. DIR. Burchard had
used the words, Rum, Romanism and
Rebellion" in his famous address to
James @. Blaine in the Fifth Avenue
Hotel. New York. in 1884. Gen. Will
Harms says he was present and would
have heard the words had they been
spoken. Now comes Mr.. A. S. Walsh,
who was Blaine campaign speaker,
and says positively that Gen. williams
memory is az fault: that he, Walsh.
was standing not ten feet from DIR.
Burchard when he spoke. and that he
certainly used the words az recorded.
Mr.. Walsh says Blaine paled and put
his hand 20 his chin A. II studying a
reply but the preacher broke on sud
denly, before the candidate had time

The Standard Oil Company has won
its fight in Russia. The Russian oil
trust has capitulated to it. and even
the Rothschild and Nobel interests have
been brought to terms by 1t. Great is
the genius of Rockefeller! He now
practically has the world in his oleagi-
nous grip. He is the Oil Emperor of
the EARTH! How long will IT be before
he and his Standard Oil Company own
all the rest of this old sphere that is
worth squeezing? 1t seems destined to
become Rockefeller's lemon.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Galveston News (Dem.) says:
'Tt would be well for those Democratic
journals which have been charging
Judge Parker with being a tool of Wall
street and other things too mean to
mention to go through their files and
commence to prepare explanations to
be written in soft and cooling tone. {"
The New York World CDem.) says
Roosevelt is a volcano that boils and
bubbles and seethes and surges and IL
Eliminates the heavens with explosions
of lava. Fairbanks is the he Jungfrau
of the Republican Alps-cold, white,
spotless, majestic, covered with the
eternal SHOWS. Fairbanks is a born
Vice President, yet nobody threatens
him with the nomination. At the best
the hooking delegates will no more
than ask him If he wants it"
The Chattanooga Times Dem.) says:
mr.. Bryan reiterates his disapprcTai
of Judge Gray. If Mr.. Bryan would
name the man whom he does approve
he might not help Democracy any, but
he might thereby be able to designate
the man, besides himself, who accord
ing to his notions is sufficiently out of
harmony with his party to lead an
other calamitous campaign. If this
could serve no. other purpose 1t would
indicate the individual who should not
be nominated"
The New Orleans Picayune Dem. }
says: Roosevelt, although there are
great objections to him among the chief
men of his party. seems to have the
entire Republican organization under
his control. and he is certain of nomi-
nation and feels confident OF election.
So confident indeed is he that II Is
claimed by his own party managers
that he Is working for a third term
Thus there is evidence that many peo-
pie are thinking with favor OF a third
term In the presidential ONCE, and
sooner or later the notion OF disfayor
attached V II will entirely disappear. :"

Gov. Peabody of Colorado has been

month or two. Bell has been cit" the
whole thing" Bell has deported work
ingmen, run the mining camps accord
ing to his own sweet will, given in
Vulnerable interviews to the newspa-
pers and generally deported himself as
the boss of TIE whole state, as he
doubtless is, while the Governor has
kept in the background and let Bell
have a free hand. Bell says Peabody
will not place the state under martial
law unless it becomes "a military ne

termined by Bell.

What did Mr.. Bryan accomplish
what did he expect to accomplish--by
his anu-Parker speech in New York
the other night? The verdict of the
New York Democracy had been made
up two months previously, when the
State Convention instructed for Judge
Parker. And in that convention there
was not single voice raised against
Parker, by Tammany or anybody
else. His Endorsement was the action
of the duly selected delegates, repre-
senting the tens of thousands of DEM
ocrats who had beer loyal to the NOM
inee in 1896 and 1900 and had voted for
Mr.. Bryan twice. But in the two
elections Mr.. Bryan was badly beaten
in New York. for the reason that he
had not the confidence of the conserva-
tive element of voters. Under the cir
cumstances, therefore, does it not seem
rather impertinent for Mr.. Bryan to
tell the Democrats of New York that
they do not know what is good for
them, and that they need political
wet-nurse?

THE THIRD SESSION.

The Legislature assemblies to-day,
and though the session viii be its third,
the impression prevails that it will not
adjourn until the legal limit of the ses-
sion has been reached. Perhaps IL
would find something to accupy it if
it were in session practically all the
time. Representative Cam is quoted
as saying that there is very little to be
done as far as he can see, and, unless
we are greatly mistaken, the impress
sion was given out when three ses-
sions were decided upon that the last
of the three would be a short one. But
whatever the impression was ii is safe
to say that the session will continue
the entire fifty days. and that when
the last day is reached there win be
bills regarded as important, that will
not have been passed upon. Because
of the three sessions of this Legisla-
ture the state has been put to an ex-
ira expense of about $4,000, notwith-
standing the fact that the public in
stitutions are complaining that they
haven't enough money for the proper
administration of their affairs.
It can be safely stated that we have
altogether too much legislation. There
is a great deal of time wasted on bills
that have only local application, and
which deal with subjects which should
be covered by general statutes, or coun-
ty commissioners or city councils
should be authorized to deal with
them.
We have many times called atten-
ton to the fact that there is no good
reason for annual sessions, and we
have not seen any satisfactory de-
Tense of them, but for some reason or
other the Legislature refuses to sub
NIT to the people the question of sub
stituting biennial sessions for them.
Only about four states now have an
nual sessions, this state being one Of
them. Some of the states have only
one session in four years and they
get along just as well as if they had
annual sessions. if not better. The
saving to the states is very great. The
money that used to go to legislatures
for passing useless bills is now applied
to other and better purposes. or else
the tax rate has been lowered.
If this Legislature should put itself
on record in favor of biennial sessions
it would give the people something for
the extra money it has spent for
third session. 1t is probable that
there is nothing 1t could do that would
be more generally approved than to
provide for submitting the question Of
biennial sessions to the people.

PRODUCTS OF THE PINE TREE.

When we published the interview
with Mr.. Carson a few days ago, rela-
tive to the products of the pine tree
obtained by new processes. we sup
posed we had got to the bottom of the
subject and had furnished about all the
information obtainable in regard to 1t.
There is no doubt of course that Mr..
Carson had made a careful study Of
it, and had drawn conclusions which
appeared to be correct. but he does not
appear to have been acquainted with
the process employed by Mr.. j. G.
Mallonee, and his son. Mr.. ]. ]. NAL
lonee, for obtaining spirits of turpen
tine and other products from pine
wood at their plants I'm Mobile, Ala,
and Gainesville, Fla. In an interview
with these gentlemen, published in the
Morning News yesterday, it is stated
that they obtain twenty-seven dis
tinct products from pine wood, each
one of which is valuable.
From cord of pine wood they get
from twenty to twenty-six gallons of
chemically pure turpentine, for which
there is always a market greater than
they can supply at 5 cents a gallon be-
low the turpentine quotations in the
Savannah market They also get other
products which command good prices.
1t is evident from the statement
which the Messrs. Mallonee make, that
the industry is a very profitable one,
and it seems safe to say that 1t is
certain to reach very large proportions
in the very near future. There is
an immense quantity of pine material
independent of marke table pine wood,
that is being wasted. 1t if were sub
jected to the process controlled by
the Messrs. Mallonee for obtaining
from it the articles of commerce it
contains, it would yield larger returns
than the best grade of pine timber
that is turned into lumber. providing,
of course. that its output is all that
is claimed.
What we in this city are particularly
interested i'm is the marketing of the
products of this new industry, and we
have suggested that there should be
commission men here to handle them.
The Messrs. Mallonee are of the opin-
ion that the spirits of turpentine
couldn't be handled very well by fac
tors. for the reason that there are so
many grades of the turpentine and
such a wide difference in the quality
of them. They make this suggestion,
however, and it seems to us to be
a good one, namely, that a refinery
be established here in Savannah for
handling the crude oil and making a
high grade Of turpentine.
Our merchants ought to look into
this new industry at once, and if it
promises all it seems to, they should
take steps at once for controlling and
handling its products. There appears
to be some ground for thinking that
in the course of very few years il
will become a far greater industry
than that of naval stores. Its develop
ment has hardly begun, and yet, from
all accounts, it has reached such pro-
portions as to justify the fullest con-
fdence in its ultimate success.
