VIRGINIA GovERNoRsHIP.
Democracy Face to Face With Strug-
gle of Candidates.
itch to The Evening Star.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
RICHMOND, Va, February S-The vir-
ginia democracy Is face to face with the
greatest dilemma in the last quarter OF a
century. The gubernatorial candidacy Of
Mann, Willard and Swanson Is puZzling the
party management and causing much con-
| lecture as to what the outcome will be.
| Judge Mann at this time is regarded as
| a winner Of the nomination In the state
primary. He is the advocate OF the anti
| saloon element in the state. and all the
elements Of strength possible are being
brought to bear to accomplish his nominal
ton.
For some time there has been a hope
! that friends of Representative Swanson
| and Colonel Willard would be able to make
| it clear that 1t the duty of one or
the other to give way and provide for a
| straight fight on well-defined issues IL the
| party on the temperance question. The
| campaign is thought to have assumed such
| a phase at this time, however, that &c
would be impolitic for either to get out
| Of the way, and so the contest is triangular
| Judge Mann is a democrat, and there
! are many democrats who are opposed to his
| nomination. For that reason o. great many
democrats are preparing to stay out of the
primary. and If Judge Mann succeeds in
| getting the nomination the voters who do
| not participate will feel themselves free
to vote their sentin. ents on the matter, and
many Of tnem declare they will most
| SuTeuly vote the TepuDIcdH TICKET III case
Judge Mann is successful in the primary.
| Combining that vote with the present re-
pu olcan vote, and with an absolute fair
| administration of the election laws, the
| republicans are declaring they will carry
the state for the head of the ticket. True
it is that the governor would be power
less as to the enforcement Of legislation.
but the effect of the ele4ion of pro-
hibition governor would be such that mora
rigid laws would be enacted when the
party did get hold of the reins OF gov.
eminent.
The names Of such men as Judge Luns.
ford L.. Lewis, now district attorney and
former president of the supreme court OF
appeals; ex-Representative Jacob Yost OF
Staunton, and Robert NJ. Hughes of Nor
folk, all of whom republicans and
men of unQuestionable integrity and stand
ing, mentioned for the governorship.
1t will be easy matter for the republic
cans to poll all their votes, and 1t is con-
ceded by many Of the old-time politicians
that the situation at this time Is far from
being all that could be wished. With Judge
, Mann representing the democrats on q
. temperance platform and Judge Lewis rep
resenting the republicans on a platform
looking to the control of the saloons the
chances of the two would be even-with a
| leaning to the republicans.

FRESHMEN NOT TO COMPETE.
Northwestern University Faculty
Takes Action in Athletics.

CHICAGO, February S.-The faculty of
Northwestern University law school has
taken a long step in advance Of the college
conference rule which bars freshmen from
competition on athletic teams for six
months before issuing an order forbidding
any student of freshman standing in that
department from competing in athletics on
any Northwestern team.
This rule will seriously affect the athletic
teams of the university. Arthur Reuber,
this years captain of the foot ball team
and the most promising candidate for pitch
er on the varsity base ball team, will be
barred, as will James Van Ryper, the star
half-back of last years eleven, and Albert
Jenkins tackle. The track team will lose
C. Granberg, recent find, who did good
work for the Central Y. NJ. c. A. last year.
1t is thought the movement was prompted
after the close of the foot bali season last
fall.

Worlds Deepest Mining Shaft.

FROM the Search Light
The deepest mining shaft has been sunk
to a little more than a mile in Cape Colony
and the deepest bore hole has reached about
the same depth in Silesia. 1t is said that
there should be no fnsurmountable difficult
ties In carrying shaft down twelve miles.
An approximate estimate has shown that to
reach a depth of two miles the cost would
be So, 500 COO Ten years would be required
and a rock temperature Of 122 degrees Fair
enheit would be found: while to penetrate
twelve miles would cost S25,000,O 600 and
would take eighty-five years, the rock tenn
perature expected being 272 degrees Fahr-
enheit.

"sockLEss" JERRY SIMPSON.
Gained a Reputation for His Sarcasm
 and Vituperation.

From the Pittsburg Post.
 The condition of Jerry Simpson, for mer congressman from Kansas, is de- clared to be critical by the physicians in charge at Roswell, N. M. He hoe suf- fered a rupture of the main artery near the heart, and any violent motion of the body might cause instant death, but should nothing occur to cause the abso- lute breaking of the tissues about the blood vessel he may recover. He is able to be dressed. but the doctors say he will be confined to the house for some time.
 Jerry Simpson first sprang into the national lmelight when he was c'e>.cd to tho Fifty-second congress from Medi- cine Lodge. Kan, as populist. In the wave of populism which swent Kansas a few years ago he was one of the move ment's most picturesque leaders. He had gained no little local fame by his radi- calism and powers of biting sara~~-- -nd yituperation in debate and wns ~.-cady known as "Sockless Jerry when elected to congress.
 The new Kansas member soon con- vinced the house that he had good men, tai caliber and that he was dr-- -ar- ous antagonist in debate. A na''-- of Nova Scotia, he gave proof that ..e pos- sessed all the ability to take care of himself that is expected from a son of

 1 HE death of MT. Daniel Scott La- 9 mont on Sunday suddenly ended a
 career which in some respects bore a close resemblance to that of MT. George Bruce Cortelyou. Each of them served as private secretary to a Presi- dent, and each was graduated from that relatively humble function into a place in the cabinet.
 Mir. Lamont had the larger preliminary experience of politics. for he was one of the young men in whom the peculiar dis cernment of character by Samuel J. Til- den early recognized rare moral and po- litical abilities. He had justified the judg- ment of Mir Tilden in important public functions before he was selected by Pres ident Cleveland as his private secretary in 1885. Mir. Lamont's sagacious perform ance of the duties of that confidential re- lation led to his appointment as Secretary of War during the second term of MT. Cleveland. When both of them returned to private life great financial and rail- road interests Approved the judgment of MT. Cleveland by putting MT. Lamont in foremost place of responsible manage ment

Strong Cotton Prices.

Coarse cotton cloths for fall deliv- cry are constantly going up, and the sellers hold the buyers at their mercy. The market is short of goods, and the domestic buyer finds himself con fronted by demand from China and other countries in the Far East. All domestics are firmly held, and print cloths are selling on the basis of 3A cents.
 These conditions are proofs that the spinners can afford to follow the market prices for raw cotton. As cotton goes up the products of the mills go up also. The consuming, If not the spin ming, world seems to be coming to the conclusion that a crop of 10,500,0 bales, or even smaller, has become possible and perhaps probable. This is why cotton is selling close to II cents in a cotton year which brought forth an unexampled crop. The world has absorbed crop of American cot. ton that will prove to have been fully thirteen and a half million bales, and yet is ready to pay II cents for new crop cotton. The strength of cotton is II .1sf tradiction. The world needs more and more cotton each year, and If this sea sons production should fall to 10,500.- 900 bales the reserve stock would be seriously reduced, even if it be admit ted that the old stock of cotton on Sep than it was one year before.

cellent condition. The policy of tho managers inclines more to issues of stock than to issues of bonds when costly Improvements are demanded. This keeps down the roads fixed charges.
 The Illinois Central is north-and- south railroad, and It's prosperity shows that the east-and-west lines no longer control traffic to and from the Missis- sippi valley. or rather, the latter no longer monopolize a traffic that they once considered strictly their own. The east-and-west lines must take now what the north,and-south lines are willing to concede to them, for the latter have the advantage alike in distances and in grades. It is down-hill all the way to New Orleans, and no loaded car seek ing a gulf outlet has to be pushed over a mountain range. This is why the north-and.south lines are gaining traf- fc every year from the east-and-west lines.

Secretary Taft and Our Colonies.

It is difficult to harmonize colonies and Dingleyism. To speak the plain truth, it is difficult to find justifica- tion for either in the federal constitu- tion, but the republican party long ago adopted Tim Campbelps view of the instrument of 17Ss, and they propose to have colonies galore, and to impose tariffs without any reference to reve- nue, but with strict regard for cam- paign subscriptions and party support CTS.
 Secretary Taft is not, however, a strict standpatter, for he advocates free trade for the Philippines. This means that the Philippines should be considered part of this country, and that trade between the mainland and the islands in the Orient should be free. While the islands would be Ding leyized, trade to and from the states would be free.
 England would dislike the change, and so would Spain, and so no doubt would Japan and China, but Dingley- ism is always absurd, for it expects all the other countries of the world to buy our products, although we erect a wall against their products. In the long run the scheme will prove harmful, and other countries will begin to erect walls also.
 But Secretary Taft goes still fur Fther. He wants minister for the colonies, or at least colonial bureau. He proposes to unite for that purpose
 Hawaii, Porto Rico, Alaska and the not be overlooked. Doubtless he thinks free trade should be fitted to all our colonies, and when his colonial bureau is in full operataion no doubt he ex- poets the tendency towards the gather
 ing in of more colonies would be ac- l celerated. We are doing a world
 stunt at preaelt, and Secretary Taft's plans are but a development of the imperial idea which has been grafted
 on the instrument that thirteen states
 hesitated over when the question of
 ratification came up. They may have
 discriminating tariffs.

ON A MIssIssIPPI STEAMBOAT.

 for August.
 young fellow, a fellow passenger was leaning upon the rail beside me, looking upon the scene below. He told me to watch and he would show me some sport. He drew a dime out of his pocket He waved his arm to attract the attention of the negroes down upon the lower deck, and then he flung the coin. It fell tinkling and rolled between two cotton bales. With yells the negroes rushed at it tumultuous- ", piling over one another, tangled mass of waving arms and legs whence issued muffled groans and grunts. Then suddenly the mass dissolved again into a mob of rousters. gaping up at us with rolling yellow eyes and heaving chests and dilated nostrils. Another piece of silver twinkled in the air and fell among them. Leaping and grabbing, the negroes snatched at the falling coin, then plunged again into a heap.
 By this time others of the passengers had heard the noise and the scufflIng, and soon quite a crowd was gathered along the rail. A shower of change began to fall upon the deck below and into the crowd of now half-frantic blacks.
 It was a conical spectacle. A little while before the negroes had been quietly busied about their own affairs; a handful of cheap silver had, fallen among them. and in less than a minute their small world was transformed into pandemonium I have heard it said that the same phenom- enon occurs sometimes on the stock ex- change

 Many of the people of Birmingham are aware of the fact that St. Bernard. near Cullman, Ala, offers educational facili- ties that are not frequently found in proximity to such large and thriving business center as this city is. It is a relief to man, who must give all his time and attention to his business, to be able to place his son under the care of teachers who have made the training and education of boys and young men their life work
 At great expense the Benedictlons of St. Bernard have erected modern and comodious buildings sufficient to accom- modate 125 boys. All buildings are well ventilated in winter as well as in summer and the numerous electric lights which have just been installed turn the nights into days
 Recreations of all kind are provided Large and beautiful play grounds sur round the college, giving ample accom- modation for all outdoor sports The baseball diamond and grand stand are said to be the finest in the state.
