A little story told recently b,

ing order, is amusing as we'll as in.
terestingi A few weeks ago the
daily press published glowing ac-
counts of how a squad of twenty
marines captured an insurgent gen
eral with $40 men and disarmed
them without the loss of a man.
with the usual dramatic touches,
The story OF the incident, direct
from the field of action, briefly, is
here given:
Captain William {. HAIRLESS Of
the Marine Corps, with a squad of
twenty men, was holding down the
lid at Camaguey. Some two score
OF armed insurgents appeared on
the scene looking for trouble, and
were promptly disarmed and locked
up by the marines. When General
Caballero, commander of the insur-
gents forces in that province, heard
OF the ignominious defeat of his 10
comrades he gathered together one
hundred of his most seasoned vet
Grams and went forth with the
avowed declaration of demanding
and eiiecting the immediate release
OF his unfortunate forty at what |
ever hazard. He arrived at Cana |
guey, called for the captain and |
delivered his demands. Captain
Harllee was not open TO conviction. /
and informed General Caballero
that he couldn't listen to him.
General Caballero told Captain
Harllee that he must. Captain
Harllee told General Caballero that
ne was under arrest. General Cab.
lllero told Captain Harllee that he
could not arrest him, because he
had with him, as the captain could
see, one hundred armed men, bold
and bad. Captain Harllee replied
hat the hundred bold, bad men were
also under arrest. General Cabal.
ero protested vigorously, and Cap.
ain Harlee told him to shut up. |,
The one hundred and one were then
added to the two score; all but one

ot such unconsciouable Juggling OF
numbers got abroad, the deepest
pain was felt by the remaining ten
lundred and sixty men of General
Naballero's host, and the disarma-
nent committee was appealed TO by
hem for protection. The commit

wAAT THE souTH .oEFERs.

II from the highest peak east of the
Rocky mountains, bird's-eye view of
the South could be had there would
be seen a mighty, resistless, onward
movement of a people who having
struggled amid the darkness of the
wilderness, strengthened in body and
mind by the hard but victorious fight,
have at last come in sight of the
Promised Land No longer moving
wholly westward as heretofore, the
tide of population would be seen to
be turning Southwark. The hardened
veterans of the South's struggle for
industrial Independence would be seen
drawing heavy reinforcements from
the coming tide. Capital, the greatest
coward on earth, which Stunned the
South in the days of it's despair, now
joins the procession, and the South,
beggar no longer, invites the worlds
surplus money seeking the most profit
able field on earth for Investment
invites it not with the beggar's plea,
but with the right to say that we are
independent, we can stand alone, We
have accumulated enough of money
and Of experience to insure a great
and steady advance but so vast is the
field. so sure are the returns, that for
the good of the investor, as we'll as
for our good, we bid the world a well
come, that all may share in the utili-
cation of these vast resources. Here,
says the South to all mankind, is a
region of which there is no duplicate.
Here is ample room for hundred
million people to have the best con-
ditions found on earth for the enjoy
ment of life, the building of a home,
the development of business and the
creation of wealth.
If the South has done this much
with the discouraging conditions
which it faced % years ago, what
may we not expect now that the bust
ness world has come to realize that
no other section of this country or
any other offers equal opportunities
for the investment of capital for the
broadcast development of manufacture
ing, mining, railroad and agricultural
And instead of having no
as in the past, it is GER
tain that we are to witness a great
movement of population.
Picture the conditions of 1880 and
the results accomplished since that
time, then study the present situation;

The people of the United States
consume 6,44O 100000 pounds of sugar,
or about 76 pounds per capita,
OF this about four.hfths is imported,
one-ffth of which is imported from
our own possessions, leaving two
fifths to come from for ign sources.
OF this three.flfths, nearly two
thirds came from Cuba and only paid
so per cent of the tariff on sugar.
The sugar that came from Hawaii and
Porto Rico paid no duty. What came
from the Philippine Islands, our own
possession, was subjected to as per
cent of the regular rate of duty. On
ly about 21,000,000 pounds were Inn
ported from the Philippines or just
about one-tenth as much as came in
fir of duty from Porto Rico. Does
this look like square deal TO
the Filipinos to charge them rs per
per cent of the tariff tax and allow
the Hawaians and Porto Ricans to
import their products free? Is not
the policy, asks The New York Jour

outy at all on Philippine sugar for

not yet become citizens of the United
States. The letter follows:

1907, asking for information relative
to the naturalization of aliens, will say
that the present naturalization law be-
came eeffctive September 81, 1906.
That YOU NAV understand the different
steps TO be taken to become natural
lied citizen, ! will give you, in brief,
the requirements Of the present law.
Clerks of the state district court can
accept declaration of intention and pc
tition for naturalization. only, from
aliens living within the judicial dis
trict of which his county forms part.
and an order granting final certificate
of naturalization can be granted, only.
by the judge of such district.
In making declaration of intention
an alien must give date and place
