Edenfield Advertiser TI'OS. J. ADAMS, ;.EDITOR WEDNESDAY, APPIL 6. The Presidents message on the Spanish-Cuban question goes to Congress to-day, Wednesday, at 12 M. Those who are nearest to him say it is a vigorous paper and has red spots all over it-blood. Oth ers say he has been drinking - a weak decoction of catnip tea and his message will be like the tea. However, Congress is fighting mad and will run over Catnip Billy rough-shod if he fails to come up to the scratch. One member of the Cabinet in an interview, says of the message: "While I can say nothing explicit concerning the details of the mes sage, I may say that it is a strong, explicit statement, and one with which Congress will be thoroughly in accord." In the meantime preparations for war go merrily (?) on. Ten new warships have been purchased by the navy department, and the powder and projectiles ordered from Europe sometime ago have arrived, or part of thom at least. The people, mostly natives of the United States, ar* flying from Ha vana and Key West, vessels hav ing been sent to the first named port for that purpose, and Consul General Lee having also hired merchant vessels in which to carry off non-combatants. The war spirit runs high at Ha vana. There is great enthusiasm amonf jpanish soldiers, and thou sands of them are enlisting to fight the "Pig Yankees," as they call us. The sentiment of an im mense majority is in favor of war. Spaniards in Mexico are said to be organizing for a raid over into Texas. We imagine they will find a warm welcome on this side the Rio Grande del Norte. The Flying Squadron at Hamp ton Roads keeps steam up all the time, and Commodore Schley says he can move out at an hour's no tice. Captain Sampson, in command of our fleet at Key West, keeps his eyes skinned day and night, too, for the coming of the torpedo flo tilla from the Cape Verde islands. ? Spanish vessel chased and fired into the British brigantine, ReEa Rosa, near the port of Oporto, Portugal, on Monday, supposing it to be an American vessel. In the language of Dan Ouzts, we might say that in this case "Spain blowed off her mouth entirely too pre vious. Don't listen to the man who tells you that the war if it comes, will last a short time or a long time, for no man knows. There are probabilities in the case, nothing more, and these probabilities are that the forces, the powerful agencies and influences that bring on a war will continue to operate until exhaustion or interference, especially a war between such a strong nation as our's and such a proud people as the Spaniards. Talk about your last ditch men and fighting till the cows come home, the Spaniard is that kind of a cat. Our prediction is that when Mc Kinley does jump into the arena he will have on his war leggings. The long delay of the President in making up his mind has made these war leggings a necessity, a sine qua non for party purposes. The daily papers report that England has a large fleet of war ships at the Bermuda Islands, un der command of Fighting Bob Fisher, and that in case of war be tween Spain and this country this fleet will be used in patrolling our coasts to protect her own merchant ships carrying our exports and im ports, for it will be remembered that the great majority of the things we buy and sell are carried in English vessels. Old England is a friend indeed when it is to her interest to be BO, which is the case here cited, and you can always count on her being there at the morning roll call. Old Father Time is said to be pointing his finger at Spain and telling her to git off of the West ern Reserve. The old fellow has been pretty hard on Spain. Two hundred years ago she owned all the territory from Savannah, Ga., to Patagouia on this hemisphere, beside? a great part of the eastern in addition to a thousand [and one islands of the sea. President McKinley is preparing a message which will call for war or peace or nothing. /This message will be given to Congress on Tues day or Wednesdav or Thursday or ? Friday or Saturday or week after ? next. The President's friends say it will be a "document for history." Spain has been trying to get the European powers to interfere be tween the two countries, but dis patches from Berlin and London of date Tuesday, April 5th, dissi pate any such hopes. Thesi dis I patches are as follows : Berlin, April 5.-The Berliner Post says : "The attempts at joint European intervention between Spain and the United Slates fai'ed, owing to the divergence of views. Emperor William declined to mix himself in the affair. It is doubtful is the United States, at the pope's word, would consent to have a fat morsel torn from its grasp." London, April 5-The Times says editorially this morning: "It is to be supposed that Presi dent McKinley gave some encour agment to the idea of papal med iation, but found the country not likely accept it. The truth ia, mediation and arbitration are very beautiful theoretically, but very different in practice, and the differ ences between Spain and the Uni ted States are too great and too substantial to be treated by that method." So the intervention of European powers is an irredescent dream. Miss Clara Barton has had ai misunderstanding with the relief j association in Cuba and has vam oosed the ranch. The Spanish flotilla did not reach Porta Rico as reported, but only the Cape Verdo islands, a miss of nearly three thousand miles. Rock Hill lost $200,000 by a fire on last Saturday night, or rather Sunday morning. The fire was discovered at 1 o'clock and raged for three hours. It is said that four million bar rels of adulterated flour has been sold thie crop year, and that the greater part of it bas been poid in the Southern markets. A SUBMARINE MINE. The prohibitionists met in cur Court House on last Saturday pur suant to notice, not many being present. The following delegates were elected to the State conven which meets in Columbia on Tues I day, April 12th : Rev. L. R. Gwalt ney, Jake Smith, Gamewell Smith, Prof.E.C. Dennis, Sheriff W.H. I Ouzts, J. A. C. Jones, T. B. Lan ham. The meeting was very quiet. Rev. John Lake was chairman and Major J. T. Bacon was secretary. There is a submarine mine in this prohibition business for some particular one of the gubernatorial candidates, but he may never know it until he is blown up sky high. Johnson's Chill and Fever -* Tonic Cures Fever In One Day. Storing Cotton. The most practical piad that has I yet been suggested for giving relief to the cotton growers, to protect their crops from being sacrificed, has recently been inaugurated in North Carolina, by establishing a bonded ware house, where cotton may be stored some thing on the same principle as distillers deposit their products. In this way the planters can store their crops at a less cost and with better protection that the old plan, and hold it until ready to sell m the meantime receiving a liberal advance on its value at a low rate of interest.

We can supply you with blank mortgagee, contracts, lieus, etc. Send us your orders, and we will jive them prompt attention. William Jeuning-s Bryan on the Situation. "Yes, the time for intervention bas arrived. Humanity demande that we shall act. Cuba li?e almost within sight of our shores and the sufferings of her people cannot be ignored unless we as a nation have become so engrossed in money making as to be indifferent to distress. "Intervention may be accom panied by danger and expense, but existence cannot be separated from responsibility which sometimes leads a nation, as an individual, into danger. A neighbor must some times incur danger for a neighbor, and a friend for a friend. "War is a terrible thing, and cannot be defended except as a means to au end, and yet it is sometimes the only means by which a necessary end can be secure!. The state punishes its own citizens by imprisonment or even death when counsel and persuasion fail. War is the final arbiter between nations when reason and diplomacy are of r-y avail. "Spain might not resist interven tion. It is to be hoped Bhe would recognize the right cf the United States to act, and immediately with draw from Cuba, but whether she resents intervention or not, the United States mast perform a plain duty. "Spain has only herself to blame for the condition of affairs in Cuba. If Bhe denies tc her for mer subjects the right of war and calls the Cuban army a mob, let her remember the worlds of Victor Hugo: 'The mob is the human race in misery.' No nation eau afford to make its people mis erable. "If the Cubans prefer death to Spanish rule, it must be because Spanish rule has robbed life of joy and hope. If a nation sows the wind it must reap the whirlwind." Johnson's Chill and Fever Tonic Cures Fever In One Day.

I OF NEW YORK B A Poet Without Patriotism. An Arkansas correspondent of the Atlan'a Constitution depre :atei war as follows: .My father was a soldier And fought to save the south; My mother said : "They'll kill you, Ned,' Said father : 'Shet yer mouth !' But away he went to battle, Butdidn's find it fun: Left one arm at Manassas. And oae leg at Bull Bun. "And shall we go to war again When hpme is full of charms; To leave, perhaps, a leg in Spain, And likewise all our arms? Perish the thought I For we've done fought Enough from strand to strand; God help us all-both great and small Before in hell we land I" How Long Will It Last. London, March 29.-"I can't see how war between the Unit?d States and Spain can be avoided," said Sir Charles Dilk to The World correspondent last night. "It is impossible to express au opinion on such meagre details of the findings of the Maine court of inquiry as have been published here, but affairs have come to such a pass with Spain that she may welcome war as the best means of getting rid of Cuba. It has be come such a millstone around her neck that she mu3t free herself from it somehow, and to proud Spaniards war would be the least disagreeable way. "I do not think mediation by any European power is likely. Media tion could only proceed on the basis of some species of autonomy, and to any further attempted solution in that direction the Cubans will not assent. "It has been evident for the last 18 months that Spain can never be any system of autonomy or by force of arms-regain control over I Cuba. But Spain won't give it.up without fighting. "Neither country has a fleet large enough to enable it to obtain decisive command of the sea within a thort period. Therefore it is difficult to forecast the dura tion of hostilities. I could ppeak more definitely if I knew how soon the United States cuu complete the four large wsr ships she is building, for they would exercise a decisive influence."
