What did Mr.. Vincent do? Did he
mount his charger, scale the wall and
carry off the fair and whiting daugh-

bound gate and with passionate and
melancholy cadence WOO the lady
with a gutar-as he kept one eye
on fathers room and the baronial
dog kennel Did he then employ the
village painter to supply him with a
twenty-foot rope ladder? Nay. He
did none of these things.
With cool and unruff1ed mien he
proceeded in the proper Twentieth
Century manner, to purchase a wire

a workmanlike fashion in his bed

Now though father may sit on the

family bull dog guard the kitchen

in the romantic intercourse of his
daughter and the forbidden.

OF THE SOUTH

With the increase in manufactures
in the south and the prospects of
enormous development of cotton and
iron interests naturally comes the
seeking after foreign trade to aid in
that development by additional de-
mand for the outputs.
For more than century the eX-
portations of the south have been al
most exclusively composed of raw cot
ton, tobacco. rice, and lumber. These
have brought wealth to the planters,
but with the utiliza,ron of part of
each of these great crops in the fac
tories and mills of the south. manu-
featured and prepared for the direct
use of the ultimate consumer far
greater profit can be obtained and
hundreds of thousands of employees
can be steadily engaged at weli-paying
work
The great vessels that bear to for
eign lands the raw materials of the
southern fields will increase in num-
Der, for southern production is no.
where near it's maximum as yet, and
the world looks to it for it's full sup
ply of cotton and the greater part of
the tobacco used. To these fleets
which carry away the agricultural
yields will be added the tonnage that
will be needed to carry the output of
the furnaces, mills, factories, and
shops of the south.
Her ports are well located, safe. and
commodious Her railway systems are
assuring her ample transportation of
that class. while her inland water
ways, already capacious, can be made
the most efficient highways for COM
merce of all that flow on the surface
of the earth.
The influence of industrial develop
ment upon southern sentiment has
been marked in the discussion of the
tariff
The time is at hann ror a change of
the southern sentiment as to our mer-
chant marine, and the business men
of the south are as quick in percep-
ton as those of our north, and they
will soon see the advantage that di-
rect lines of vessels flying the Ameri-
can flag and sailing regularly from
southern ports to foreign markets will
give them for acquiring foreign trade.
1t is to the interest of the south to
have control of trade on the seas
through our own fleets of commercial
marine.
From Baltimore to Galveston her
ports should harbor ocean steamers
flying our flag and carrying her man
ufactures and her field products to
every portion of the globe.-Wash-
ington Post.

ful aspect on the Philippine situa-
ton. We are informed that the chol-
era interfered with the fleets pleas
IRE. but that was about all that was
known of the conditions existing"
If the government is keeping up
policy of studied secrecy concerning
the situation in the Philippines, there
is blame in the fact for some branch
of the government.
The war department is not above
the people that ordained and main
tain it, If the press in the PHILIPPINES
is under a censorship it is subject
ed to tyranny that Americans
should ashamed of.
If the government of the Philippine
acknowledgements for any rea-
son the existence of cholera. it is ex-
ercising a censorship over news; and
if it censors news of one kind it I'M
doubtedly suppresses news of any sort
it considers impolitic.
If we are making a failure in the
know it. If we are seemingly OBJ
liged to do autocratic and tyrannical
things there. the honor of every voter
is concerned in our deeds, and every
voter should know the worst as we'll
as the best.

FOOLISH TALK BY CHAMP CLARK

Champ Clark, democratic floor
leader in the lower house of congress,
says that the republican party will be
punished by the people of the country
for failing to revise the tariff down
ward.
What nonsensei
What blame can Clark lay upon the
republican party that will not fall
equally upon his own?
When the steel trust needed votes
in the senate there were fewer demo-
Gratis in the antitrust minority than
there were republicans. There is a
safe majority of senators of both par
ties ready to serve the trusts-so
wherefore shall the wrath of the ma
ton fall upon the G. O. P?
In the house there are always
enough democrats to vote with the
interests to nullify the efforts of So
called insurgent republicans.
out of it all comes one great truth.
Both parties are traversed by a plain
line. on one side are the servants of
the people; on the other are the serv-
ants Of privilege.
When the people decide to punish
they will be blind if they try to pun
ish parties; they will be wise if they
punish individuals.
The party cloak can no longer cover
the real influences which today con-
/ troll congress.
For Champ Clark or anybody else
TO try to raise a party cry at this
time is an insult to ordinary intelli-
gence.
If the party is not big enough to
compel its representatives to obey
platform promises, then party must
be ignored and senators and represent
tatives must be dealt with each on his
own record. No party cry can suffice
TO shield.
