The Terrible Cossacks.

From the Arkansas Gazette
When the hostilities opened in Manchura early
in 1904 the temerity of the Japanese startled the
world the mikados troops refused to take to their
heels and give the terrible Cossacks of the an
open field. Had not these ferocious man. slayers
swept everything before them the steppes of
Russia? Why should they not scatter the little
brown men of cherry blossomand? The Tartars
in the saddle were supposed to inspire awful terror
to the mikado's men.
When the relocated legions of George Ill.
marched with military precision against the Amer
lean revolutionsts theorists perhaps felt sorry for
the defenders of human rights. But in the colonies
as in the Orient it was found that something more
than hollow pretense is necessary the battlefield.
The red-coats were routed from Lexington to York

to be crowded out of history. Here we have an
instance of Cossack bravery

morning Cossacks attacked Jewish family of five

The bravest are the tenderest,
The loving are the daring.

were not providentially directed?

The late Senator George Frisbee Hoar, OF Massa-
chusetts, was ripe scholar and man of great
ability. In politics, he was a Republican, and
though differing with his party on many questions
he was partisan, and always voted with the Re-
pubIicans. During heated debates in the Senate in
years past he severely criticised the South and its
people, but later he became admirer of Southern
people, because of virtues frankly conceded. He
once said of Southerners:
''They have some qualities which cannot claim
in an equal degree for the people among whom
mysef dwell. They have aptness for command,
which makes the Southern gentleman, wherever he
goes, not peer only, but prince. They have a
love of home; they have, the best of them and the
most of them, inherited from the great race from
which they came, the of duty and the instinct
Of honor, as no other people on the face of the
earth They have above, and giving value to all,
that supreme and superb constancy which, without
regard to personal ambition, and without yielding
to the temptation of wealth, without getting tired
and without getting diverted, can pursue public
object, in and out year after year and generation

THE CoRPORATIoNs.-The Savannah News is of
the opinion that the various candidates for Governor
seem to think that in order to get the votes of the
people they must pose as the bitter enemies of the
corporations. The News says that the position of
the candidates should not be bitter animosity toward
then but that the corporations should be dealt with
fairly and justly and not imposed upon. This is
true. The people of Georgia realize that corpora
tons are necessary to build railroad, factories and
develop our industries They are willing for them
to have all the protection that the law throws around
the individual, but they do insist and demand that
they be not allowed to be instruments and means
for the oppression of the people.-Talbotton Era

ARlz0NA'S GREAT RESOURCES
Col. Lee Crandail Tells of the Terri
 tOrY's Natural Wealth

Colonel Lee Crandall of Globe, Ariz., was in the city yesterday en route to Washington, D. c.
 The colonel has great faith in the frture possibilities of Arizona and thinks that the prospects of the terri. tory were never 80 bright and en- couraging as at the present time.
 "I believe, said the colonel, "That Arizona is the richest and most prom ising section in the entire west. Es pacally is this true of her great min eral resources which are as yet but partly developed and the output of the mines will steadily increase year by year. The wealth of the territory is not confined to any one kind of mineral, but gold, silver, copper, lead and iron are all found in almost mex haustible quantities and l claim that the copper deposits are the greatest in the world. This spring the mining industry is very active; mauy new claims are being opened up and ex- tensive development work is being carried on. The latest invented ma chinery is being installed aud vast i'm provements inaugurated. These signs of thrift and progress ara not confined t) any special district, but are true of the entire territory.
 Arizona is also greatstock region aud her cattlemen are among the most su Ostantial in the couutry. It has d superb climate aud with irrigation every variety of fruit aud grain can be raised.
 "No section of the union oilers at present better inducements to lhe in. yestor than Arizona, and its future is assured. The recent tne rains have left the ranges in magnificent condi- tioo aud the present. season will be one of unsurpassed prosperity. The peo- pie Of the territory feel grateful to those United States senators who fought against joint statehood with New MeXlca. Arizona is entitled to become au independent state, and the time is not far distant when her just claims will be allowed. '-El Paso News.

SURPRI ING TALK

What shall be done to Rear Admiral
 Melville This distinguished and vet eran naval officer, in m address at Phil adelphia, has told the country that all the talk of which We have heard and read SO much, to the effect that our new possessions were coigns of vantage,
 bases of offensive military strength, Is the veriest humbug and charlatanism. Instead of strengthening our power these outlying possessions were every one source of weakness in war, re- quiring to be defended by ships and men which could be much more effec lively used elsewhere. Such defence would be exhaustive of our resources to a degree out of all proportion to the value of the possessions, whether in war or peace, and the best thing that we could do would be to get rid of them as decently as possible. Stranger still, the military and naval strategists at Washington do not appear to have taken offence at the admiral's bold dec laration. IL is reported that these strategists are now saying that they re. gard the distant iDsular possessions as of no value in comparison with the home coasts, and that on the outbreak of war with any strong naval power they should be abandoned, left to what ever fate may come. Is it for this that we have expended some S70O, 900, 900 or $500, 900, 900, and are being nrged to authorize four new battleships and sundry other war engines annually at cost of more than hundred million dollars ?-Boston Herald.

PAUL REVERE'S HOME

A movement has been started iu Boston for the preservation of the old home of Paul Revere, from winch he started on his famous ride ito carry the alarm to every Middlesex village and farm" of the approach of the British.
 The house has been for over half a century one of the historical shrines to which pilgrims from all parts of the world have come. There has been little financial profit to the owner in these visits and the march of Improvements in North square and the deterioration in value ot the structure itself make its further existence almost impossible under the old conditions.
 The maintenance of the house as n monument to Paul Revere would pro- vide most fitting memorial in his honor. Relies of the patriot would find resting place there and it could be made Revere museum as we'll as an interesting landmark.
