Favorable Advertising.

The coming of so many dreadnaughts
into the Charleston harbor this week
gives that port some very favorable
advertising at time when it may
bring large returns. In few years
the Panama canal will be much
travelled thoroughfare connecting the
two oceans, and the South Atlantic
port that offers the greatest advantages
as shipping point will reap the larg-
est commercial returns from the canal.
Charleston is not only the enearest deep
water port to the canal, but its connec-
tions with the central west give it an
other point of vantage that other ports
do not possess. In this connection, the
government dry dock at Charleston
gives Cardinals metropolis still anoth-
er advantage.
1t is to be hoped that Charleston will
use to the best possible advantage the
publicity that is gained through 'aeet
week." Notwithstanding the fact that
all of the frst-class battleships are
vessels of very heavy draft, the dogs
of-war glided into port as easily as If
they had been sail boats. Not every
Atlantic port can accommodate the
dreadnaughts.

one questions the cruelty of this let
him be fastened in a crate where
he must either sit in a cramped po-
sition or stand with legs crooked
for hours or even days as fowls are
sometimes forced to do. This is
needless cruelty, The cost of a
deeper crate is almost nothing In
