Steamer Fish Hawk.
ACTING ar GOVERNORS REQUfsT
Grounds Extending from This City to
Mulberry island VIII be Surveyed
at Different Seasons In Order to
Ascertain What parts Of Rocks are
Depleted.

In. conformity with a request from
Governor Swanson for resurvey oil
the oyster grounds in the James river
the United States steamer Fishhawk,
under command OF DR.. f. Ii. +. Moore
Of the department OF Fishers put III
at this city yesterday for the purpose
OF beginning the work. The fishnawk
is accompanied by the Commodore
Maury, the flagship o. the Virginia
oyster, pclice feet. which VIII remain
with the United States vessel untii
the work of resuryey is completed.
MIR. W. Mcdonald Lee. chairman OF
the Virginia commission of fisheries
win join Dr. Moore in a few DAYS and
remain with the fleet. The survey
VIII take in ali the oyster grounds IN
James river, which begin just above
this city and end at Mulberry Is
land distance of eighteen miles.
Or Moore Is considered high au-
thority on the oyster Industry. having
made life study of IL In all its COM
piica.ed phases. He will make two
surveys so as 10 get a fair idea OF
conditions at two different seasons.
The present one probably will extend
through the month of July, the other
10 begin on September !.
Three Importan. Questions.
There are three important ques-
lions upon which Dr. Moore viii re-
port-what rocks are depleted; what
percentage of those found to be de-
pleted are capable OF being replenlsn-
ed and what proportion OF the whole
are now productive.
II Is the hope of the governor as
we'll as the commission Of fisheries
that the resurvey viii result in fixing
policy which will tend to settle the
long drawn cut controversy between
the longer and the planter. The con-
stituticn of the State declares that
the natural oyster rocks are the
property OF the whole people thus
prohibiting the planter from stalking
them off. The trouble seems to be
over the question as what is 4 real
rcek" Those found depleted Will be CIV
en- over to the planters. though they
will be forbidden to take up such as
are found to be productive to the ex-
clusion OF the public CT which the
tcnger is an important part.
M. Lee Jubllant.
According TO dispatch from Rich
mend. Chairman Lee is jubilant over
a decision CT the state supreme court
which. he claims, sustains the com
mission irtSits efforts to protect the
public rocks. Had no. the court TAX

clares that the planters would have

pressed at Petersburg was that, while the foreign war of 1898 had done much to consolidate the national sentiment, 1t is not by militarism that the nation is to be made strong, but by the true CO operation in the less spectacular civic courage, in the spirit of self-rsstraint and providence, the unselfish desire to uphold the standard to political and of fieial integrity, and to sacrifice our self ish interests, if need be, to the public veal. Honoring as he did the martial heroism of the south of forty years ago, he was not less frank and cordial in his appeal to the new south to leave its political aloofness and discard those who would st.ll maintain distrust, that the wtolo nation may the better meet the duties which make for the common prosperity ard peace.

MONUMENT TO CLEVELAND
Washington the Place for Memorial te the Late President.

From the Baltimore Sun.
 His admirers among the business men of Chicago are raising fund of $100,- 900 to erect status to Grover Cleve- land. Though this was proposed only few weeks ago, more than half the fund has been raised, and the remainder will be secured without difficulty. It is understood that the plan is to erect the statue in Chicago.
 No man who has lived in America in our generation more richly deserves a monument than Mir Cleveland, and Chi cago has shown commendable enterprise in promptly putting the purpose into effect. But Mir. Cleveland was na- tional character, the first president, up to his time, since the Civil war, who truly represented all sections of the na- tion--the man who upheld the nation s credit, who restored public order when anarchy threatened, and who fearlessly met and fought even the leaders of his own party for the good of his country.
 There should be stately and digni- fled memorial erected to evidence appre- citation of his great services and regard for his memory. But 1t should be a national tribute to which the people of all states and sections may contribute. and it should be erected at the capi- tai. Washington has many statues, but few men who have sarved either on the field of war or in the chair of state So richly deserve preservation in immor- tai bronze as docs Grover Cleveland. His monument should stand in the na- tions capital, towering among ths tall est of memorials to its great men.

"WE ALL TAKE TEA'
Who Put the Kettle On--Johiny or
 Molly or Polly or Joshua?

From the Charlotte News and Courier. The Charlotte Observer has slipped up again, and we are beginning to lose faith in the inerrancy of it's recollec- tions. Not long ago it wrote something about a tune known as .'Johnny, Put the Kettle on." The Montgomery Ad- vertiser immediately protested that it was "Polly Put the Kettle on," and now comes tie Washington Herald, which rarely ever makes a mistake about anything, declaring that the re- frain of the song really is, "Polly Put the Kettle On.'' We think the Herald is nearer right than any of our other contemporaries upon this important point, but we are advised by former resident of the state of Georgia. now en- gagged in business in the town of Charlston, that even the Herald has slipped it's trolley this time, that really the words of the song run as follows:
 Tell Josh to get the cows homs
 And put them in the pen,
 Our corsirs are a-coming
 To sec us all again.
 The dough is in the pan,
 The turkeys or the fire,
 And I guess we'l astonish
 Our Cousin Jedediah.
 Cousins Jedediah, Obadiah,
 Hezekiah, Jeremiah,
 And old Aunt Sapphira
 Are all coming here to tea.
 Jerush put the kettle on,
 And we'll all take tea.
 We wouldn' t swear to "Jerusha, " but the Georgia version of the poem, which reads really as if it might have been manufactured by the poetry works of the Charlotte Observer, has about # a swing that almost convinces us that it is neither Johnny, nor Molly, nor Polly, but Jerusha. It looks as if the poem is not squarely on all It's feet, but 1t is worth preserving even in this nut Hated form.
