BETTER CALL HIM IN.

We doubt whether Secretary Of the
Treasury Shaw is winning any votes
| for Mr. Roosevelt. He certainly is not
winning the support Of thinking men
TO the Republican cause by such argu-
ments as this:
Il prefer that American goods be
sold abroad at less than cost Of pro
duction rather than that foreign goods
should be sold here at less than cost.
1t does not harm me that the product
of American labor is sold abroad at
such prices as to forbid competition.
Our factories could not run sixty
days in the face of oyerproduction In
Europe if il were not for our pro.
tective tariff
How long viii American factories be
able to run on full time IL we continue
policy which encourages or obliges
them to put very low price on their
surplus intended for export-a price
much lower than that which they ex
act from the American consumer? In
effect we pay our manufacturers a
bounty taken from the pockets Of the
people upon that part of their product
which is consumed at home, in order
that they may be able to undersell
their competitors in the foreign mar
kst. Secretary Shaw's predecessor in
srituted a war of commercial retalia'
ton upon Russia for just that thing
we may expect wars of commercial
retaliation north, south, east and west
IL we continue in the path we are now
following.
Wars of retaliation will close TO us
even the limited foreign markets We
have won. American manufacturers
will then be shut up to the home mar
ket. Running at their full capacity the
factories of this country ought now to
produce goods enough TO supply the
home demand twice over. Their sur
plus, as Mr. Mckinley pointed out
should find a market abroad. II must
find a market abroad, or American
mills will presently begin 10 reduce
wages, discharge operatives. reduce
purchases of raw materials. and cur
tail output. That is the inevitable
tendency of the Republican policy OF
protection. as to which Mr.. Roosevelt
and his party have determined to
stand pat
Mr. Shaw is on the danger line when
he admits that the selling Of American
products to foreigners at price below
thai at which they are sold to Ameri
cans is accepted by the party Of pro
lection as natural and proper result
OF their policy. 1t would be better Il
call him in than to let him go on talk
ing in this way.-New York Times.

'COLORED PEOPLE TO
HAVE A HOSPITAL
DR.. VIM. M. FIELDS is WORKING
FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT or
SUCH AN INSTITUTION IN
CAIRO.

If the plans proposed by Dr. Wm N.
Fields are carried ont Cairo VIII have
4 hospital exclusively for colorea peo.
pie AT no distant day.
DR., Fields was approached yoster.
day by a Bulietia reporter on the DO.
litical outlook in Alexander county.
He stated that he was taking no part
in politics and did not care 10 bur.
den his mind with such troublesome
questions. He said he was contamp.
lating establishing.a hospital in Cairo
for colored people and expected to de-
vote all OF his spare time and atten.
lion in planning for ana looking Ia
the founding OF such an institution.
His plans are incomplete as yet, but
he stated that he believed Cairo
should have such hospital and he ex-
poets with his own money 10 assist
IN establishing one providing he car;
secure proper acknowledgements from The
citizens of Cairo. He believes n good
~ sum OF money can be secured by
subscription. by giving a charity bali
and selling ticket TO every business
man in Cairo, and in other ways.
DR.. Fields said the need OF d hospl.
tai for colored people was apparent
and believed 1t would be a self-sup.
porting institution. He said the many
colored fraternal organizations that
paid sick benefits to their members
had no place to care for them and the
many colored men employed in the
factories who we're frequently injured
would patrohize hospital of this
character. He also believed in pro-
yiding resident physician for she
hospital who would be there constant
ly to attend patients.
DR.. Fields was unable to say how
much such an institution as he pro.
posed would cost and he las not vet
selected site for the building, but he
expects the matter 80 take some form
in a short time and hopes TO be able
to give more definite plans at an early
date.

THE ROSES OF MiGHT-HAvE
BEEN.

There's garden. red with roses and
with morningglories straying
Der its iyied walls and hedges
bells that tinkle floral hours.
'Tis the garden where. as children, We
went innocently straying
And our souls eXhaled sweetness
like the odor of the Hoaers:
Silver waves Of crested clover in he
Summer sunlight cleaning
Kissed the naked feet that battered
through the powered gateway
in,
eventide and dreaming
We may see 1t over yonder in the
land of Might aye-Been
Twas in May we fashioned garands.
All. And do you remember?
Twas in Nav We buil;led castles in
the fairy land OF yore:
But the days have come and vanished
till the month Is now December
And the gate thai closed behind us
optHS lpT us HGFeImUF1.
All! The roses still are blooming and
the morningglories straying,
The children, fairy-footed. through
the gateway enter in,
But like souls shut on. from Eden we
may know no more Of Maying
For MS It's over yonder in the land
of Might Have-Been.
What garlands we might fashion from.
the once-neglected flowers,
What faded wreaths of purposes we
might freshen with our .ears.
With chastened souls re-enter child
hoods grape-empurpled bowers
And jewel every moment with the
wisdom cleaned of years.
Alas. How might we revel in the riot
ry of roses.
Bid sorrow from our aching hear,
and sweetness enter in.
But nay Youth leaves the garden aaj
the gate behind his close
The roses left forever in the la,
Of Might-Haye-Been.
There's a garden over yonder. and al
eyentide and dreaming
A breath of budding roses from Il,
powered walls 20 me,
The waves of crested clover in the
Summer sunlight cleaning.
And faces, long-forgotten, fash from
out the Used-to-Be.
The feet of little children play, as in
nocently Maying,
They swing the old gate open wide
and gladly enter in;
A garden where the roses bloom and
morningglories straying-
A garden over yonder in the land of
Might HaveBeen.
