(From The New york Sun, April 40


From the Washington point of view
It is much too early TO see or even TO
guess just what is meant by the lat
est move OF Cipriano Castro. 1t would
be little short of absurd to declare
that he is out of politics or to predict
that he viii go out The veins of this
very interesting little man carry no
drop of the Cincinnatus blood Mex
er will he bid long farewell to all
his greatness. say sood-by to his be
loved and loyal people, and return TO
the little mountainside bodeGa of
which he was the proprietor scarcely
more than ten years ago. Never will
he join the noble order of has beens''
But there is that in his career which
suggests that he is In some ways an
ir1itator of his predecessor, Don Guz-
man Blanco.
From 1870 until 16 Guzman Blanco
ruled Venezuela with an even strong
er hand than that of Cipriano Castro.
It suited him from time to time TO
make a show OF getting out and TO
talk about permanent withdrawal IL
his dearly beloved land would be serv-
ed by his retirement, but for sixteen
years he never got SO far away that
he could not get back when he saw
fit Very much as Don Cipriano has
had his row with France, so did Don
Guzman get into a tanSle with Eng
land. When England in 1887 laid claim
to the territory west of the Essequibo
river, Mr. B1anco stubbornly insisted
upon arbitration of the matter, and
when this was refused by the British
government Don Guzman sent the Brit
ish Minister Mr. St. John, his pass
ports, very much as Don Cipriano sew
cred diplomatic relations with NJ. Taig-
ny last fall.
Blanco and Castro are alike in that
both sought readjustment Of the ma
tional finances while neither plunged
into foreign debt 1t is widely believ-
ed that B1anco made millions out Of
his official position. and that he went
to Paris as the best place to spend
them An official statement of the ma
tional finances from 1872 to 1886 shows
total receipts as about S65.000,O00 and
total expenditures as about 5S,o00.oo0.
Inquirins patriots have wondered
what became of the balance and OF
sundry other moneys supposer to have
been received by Mr.. Blanco. There
are uncharitabIe souls who profess to
believe. that Mr.. Castro has feathered
his nest in a similar manner, and that
he will some day emulate the exam

WAY KILLS PALMER.
Orangeburg Shocked by Another
Bloody Pistol Battle.

There was Il shooting affair inI
Orangeburg on Monday afternoon
between Jefferson NJ. Way and John
ID. Palmer, and the latter was shot
dead by the former
Mr. Palmer was shot through the
head, the ball entering about the eye,
and death ensued at once.
The shooting occurred in the store
of Mr.. Way, just across Market street
from the postoffice. The report is
that Palmer went to Ways store and
had talk. Later Palmer returned to
the store and the report is that he
opened fire on Way. The latter ran
behind his counter and grabbed his
pistol, which he is said to have al
ways kept hung up there, and then
he opened fire. Palmer's pistol is
said to have been emptied when it
was found lying beside his body on
the store floor Way is said to have
shot four times. Ways hand was
hurt from splintcrs from one of Pal
mer's balls strilin" the store coun-
ter.
II is said, says the correspondent
of the News and Courier that the diff
ficulty grew out of Ways objections
to attention that Palmer was paying
to Il grown daughter Of the former.
Palmer is said to have been drinking.
Way is II man over 80 years Of age,
while Palmer was about 30 years old.
Sheriff Dukes arrested Way short
time atcr the Slloulin" and he is now
in custody.
On Christmas Of 1891 Way shot and
killed Elliott W. MILESTONE at Nor
way, in Orangeburg county. Both were
we'll TO ,lo men at this time. During
the following spring term of Court
Way was convicted of murder and
sentenced to be hanged. An appeal
was taken to the Supreme Court
and the judgement of the Circuit
Court was affirmed. Later the SUI
prcme Court granted leave for mo-
tion for a new trial to be heard on
the ground of after discovered evi-
dence, and the motion was granted
by the Circuit Judge. At the second
trial, about two or three years after
the first trial, Way was acquitted.
He spent nearly two years in Jail
under sentence Of death during the
pendencv of the legal efforts that
were being made in his behalf.
Some time back Palmer and Way
had n disagreement, but they were
| brought together Palmer had been
working at Won Ohsen's buggy and
repair shop. 1t is said that Mrs.
Way and Il little negro boy were in
the store during the shooting and
were tic only eye witnesses.

All lien Are Not Liars.

Miss Ida TarbeH, who seems to re- gard her special mission to be placing thorns in the sides of the managers of the Standard Oil company. has depart cd from her chief occupation long enough to announce that lying is the national vice of America. It is evident that Miss Tarbell places too much stress on the fact that one of the ju- nior constituents of the great oil com pany took up this question of lying, at a recent meeting of his Bible class, and treated it at some length. It is possible, and indeed more than proba- ble that Miss Tarbell has become pes simistic in her long continued cam paign. Statements have appeared in some of the magazines, over the sigma ture of Miss Tarben. concerning the objects of her emnity, which have not been verified, although pains have been taken to contradict them.

To neglect backache, which is very often the Only outward sign that Ma ture gives Of serious trouble in the kidneys, is to give free reign to seri- ous disorders that may end in drOpsy, gravel, diabetes or Bright's disease.
 Yet this neglect of backache is very common. Many people think the pain a simple muscular trouble. They do not seem to know that backache is the most common symptom of kidney complaint.

l don't see much that pleases me, No matter where l turn; The world is full of discon-ent, And lessons none can learn. The weather's always too intense; Too hot or else too cold.

Who Shall Say?

We do not see how any assault car
 be successfully made upon the position
 taken by Senator Patterson yesterday
 in his resolution in reference to the democratic senate caucus of Saturday night. His resolution sets forth that Any senator voting otherwise than as
 his sense of duty dictates degrades his
 high office and assails the dignity and standing of the senate.''
 It may be said that any man, senator or other. who says or does anything contrary to the dictates of his sense of duty degrades his position in his own estimation if not in that of his fellow-men.
 No doubt the language of the reso- mtion of Senator Patterson will re- ceiye the more than academic approval of President Roosevelt as being in strict accord with his own often re- peated views on the loftiness and in- dependence of manhood in politics and private life. The presidents approval of the senator's ideas concerning the preservation of state senatorial and personal dignity will, in this case. be stimulated by his need of Senator Pat terson's vote on the Santo Domingo treaty.
 But how about those twenty-three insurgent members of the house who were induced to change their positions on the joint statehood bill after they had declared-many of them having signed the pledge-that opposition to the bill was the only course consistent with their sense of duty? Some of them said after they had voted for the bill that they had not changed their views regarding the injustice of the sure of the administration had com pelled them to support
 It will be generally admitted that caucuses are necessary adjuncts to legislation. They preserve the ma jority from flying into useless pieces over trifling differences of views Without the caucus much of the time of the house would be wasted. But the caucus is sometimes abused by submission to it of questions involving different, though perhaps honestly diff ferent, opinions concerning morality Questions of this kind have no busi- ness in the caucus if the dignity of the members is to be preserved, for no man can surrender ais views in a mat ter of right and wrong and after that be the same conscientious legislator he was before.
 In a matter of mere judgment. of ex- pediency. one may without outraging his feelings defer to the views of oth- 1 CTS. But it was not that kind of a question which the insurgents had to consider. They were forced to partici- rate in what they admitted before and after to be an outrage. The Santo Do- mingo treaty involves no similar con- alterations. There is no moral ques- ton involved but one of national ex- pediency. Still, no one will deny the right of Senator Patterson to be gov erned by his own views.
