It is the boast. especially in cam palgu times. of many statesmen that if a wall should be constructed around the whole country rom the Atlantic to the Pacific. and from British Amer lea to Mexico. it would be possible to grow. mine or produce every particle needed by tho eighty or more r,illions of people of ,he United States without sending abroad for anything. In the main. this statement is true. and the United States Is the only country in the world cf which lt Is true. but there are some imports which the United States must get from abroad CT do without
 The chief article which is in such de- mand by che people or the United States as tC be. in fact, necessity of life. is coffee. It is not produced here. and comes almost exclusively from Brazil
 Another item Of necessary import is tea. not raised to any appreciable ex- tent in the United States. but shipped here from China and Japan in almost equal amount.

have been great in any department of life. As in war. he would have met every emergency with daring skill and every obstacle with dauntless energy. He was an impressive speaker and ol several occasions I have heard him de- liver an address in the most effective manner"
 As the years go by and as men be- come acquainted with his career. his fame as a soldier will grow more and more until all men will approve the verdict given by the greatest com mander on the federal side, Gen. Will liam Tecumseh Sherman, who said: After all. I think Forrest was the most remarkable man our civil war produced on either side. To my mind he was the most remarkable in many ways In the first place he was un- educated while Jackson and Sheridan and other brilliant leaders were sol diers by profession. He had never read a military book in his life. knew nothing about tactics, could not even drill a company; but he had a genius for strategy which was original, and to u,e incomprehensible. There was no theory or act of war by which I could calculate with any degree Of certainty what Forrest was up to. He seemed always to know what l was doing or intended Co do. while am free to con- fcss could never tell or form any sat lsfactory idea Of what he was trying to accomplish"
 Gen. Joseph r. Johnston. deemed by many the greatest strategist and the ablest general on the confederate side. said that Forre7t was the greatest sol- dier or the war and had he had the advantages or a thorough military ed ucation and training. he would have been the great cenCal figure Of the civil war"

It is believed that the campaign of experiment and Of education now being carried on by the bureau of plant industry will open up great tracts of arid and even slightly alkaline lands in the southwestern states.
 About one-fourth of the hay crop Of the United States is produced from wild grass. The department is trying to improve some of these wild grasses, for it is asserted that some of them are of superior value as forage, and well worth bringing under cultivation. These experiments are now being car ried on in several places in the far west.

Date of the End of the War.

Although the war department has been proceeding under a decision or the controller of the treasury to the effect that the war with Spain ended on April l, 1899. the date of the ratifi- cation of the treaty of peace, it seems that the question of the termination Of the war may be settled otherwise in the cocrts. The subject has come Up in St. Louis through the habeas cor pus proceedings of a former soldier, TOW a prisoner at Jefferson barracks, Louisiana, for desertion. The man al- leges that, while he deserted. he was not arrested until after the date when he might under the law be held ac- cCuntable. the government regarding that a deserter is free from punish ment after the expiration Of two years from the end or his regular term of enlistment. In this case. however, the government asserted that the soldier deserted in a period of war. the date Cf the desert-on being Oct. 16. 1898. The soldier held tEat the war ended with the presidents proclamation on Aug. l3. 1898. The St. Louis court intimated in a preliminary hearing that t was inclined 10 take the side of the pris- oner. IT such is the decision, the case will be carried higher. until it reaches the United States supreme court. The interest in the question arises from the possibility that the practice of the war department in regarding the later date as the end Of the war may be dis rurba1

WANTS A MALARIA
COMMISSION
Albany Doctors Views at Tubercu-
Iosis Congress.

Albany Doctors Views at Tubercu-
Iosis Congress.
Macon. Oct. 20.-An interesting ques-
ton is that which has been raised by
DR.. P. 7. EIillsman of Albany. a prom
inent member of the Georgia Tuber-
culosis Commission, who attended the
sessions of that body in Macon yes
terday.
TO representative of the Morning
News, he said that he is of the opin-
ion that there should be also a Malaria
Commission in Georgia. He pointed
out the prevalence of this disease, es-
pecially in certain localities and said
that quite as much could be accom-
pished by waging war on the malaria
germ as by the efforts to check the
work of the germ of tuberculosis. DR.
Hillsman said: 1T used to be consid-
cred that malaria was caused by bad
air. The term malaria from its Latin
derivation signifies 'evil' or bad air.
so that 1T was commonly thought that
the disease was the result of bad air.
But it is now shown beyound cavil
that the disease is caused by a germ
and that this germ travels on the body
Of a certain genus of the musouito
~ NACs OpilllOll Nildl is
transmitted not only in this way, but
that its microbes float in the air as
well as travel on a mosquito. A short
while ago party of young people
from our town went on a camping trip.
They made ample provision against
mosquitoes carrying nets and other
means of defense. but when they re-
turned each member of the party with
out an exception was stricken with a
malaria. l was thus strengthened in
my opinion that the germ travels in
the air as well as with the musquito
Some physicians hold that they can
go into a swamp and remain there for
an indefinite period and not have ma
laria, provided that they are not Bit
ten by mosquitoes. but l am of the
opinion that the germ which moves i'm
the air would attack them if they
should not come in contact with the
musquito."
majority of the members of the
tuberculosis Commission left this
morning for their homes.

CHEAPLY COMPRESSED COTTON
OCCUPIES NO MORE SPACE
Hard Question Put Up to Railroad Commission
by Arlington Ginner.

petition is granted it would practical
~ reduce the rate on cotton from
Arlington to Savannah from 40 to 80
cents per hundred, the difference be-
ing about the price of compressng.
But the most serious phase of the
question is the result with regard to
the big congresses all over the South.
Should the railroads be required to
transport the monger bale as COM
pressed cotton it would mean that
these cheap congresses would be put
in at almost every gin and the useful
ness of the big steel congresses would
have passed away.
In this would be involved a loss of
hundreds of thousands of dollars TO
the railroads, which are the owners of
the big congresses. The hearing was
continued until a later date at the re-
quest of the railroads.

NO REMARRIAGE
WITHIN ONE YEAR
COMPROMISE CANON PASSES.
EPISCOPAL HOUSE OF DEPUTIES
AGREES ON DIVORCE MATTER.

II Is Now Up to HOuse of Bishops
to Act on AEreeme nt-InnOeenr
Party in Divorce for Cause of In
fidelity Will BE Permitted to
Marry After Year-But Ministers
May Refuse to Marry Them.
Boston, Oct. 2O.-By an overwhelm-
ing majority compromise canon or
the remarriage of divorced persons
was adopted by the House of Depu-
ties of the Episcopal General Conven-
ton to-day, and if it is concurred in by
the House of Bishops. the most impor-
tant issue that has come before the
present convention will be disposed of
for at least three years.
The compromise measure, like the
old law, permits the remarriage of the
innocent person in a divorce for the
cause of infdehty, but further provides
that no remarriage shall be allowed
within one year after a decree has
been issued by civil court.
Must Furnish Proof.
Satisfactory proof of the innocence
of the applicant for remarriage must
be furnished in the shape of court rec
ords, and after the consent of the
bishop is obtained, a clergyman may
refuse to perform such a ceremony
without subjecting himself to censure
or discipline.
In the opinion OF Francis A. Lewis
of Philadelphia, a member of the Com
1nittee on Canons, who favored no re-
marriage of any divorced persons, but
who accepted the compromise the
canon adopted to-day is so strict that
if Endorsed by the bishops, it will prac-
tically put the church, as he expressed
it, "out of the divorce business"
Others, however claimed that they
saw ''loopholes" in it. The vote on the
passage stood:
Vote Overwhelming.
Clerical, SO dioceses for, seven against,
two divided; lay vote, As dioceses for,
five against and two divided.
The House of Bishops to-day nomi-
mated Rev. Henry A. AYES of Hous-
ton, Tex, for missionary bishop of
Mexico to have supervision over Eng
lish speaking congregations in that
country.
