Thc Cuban matter still hangs lin; If thc Cuban? decline t'> ace? pt thc IMatt resolutions as a settlement "I thc relations of Cuba to the I'??ted Stales the pr?sent status is ?t i tain to be maintained until Congress meets. mm- rn? -i Wholesale stealing from the United States Commissary Department, in Manila, hus bee? discovered, and some of thc guilty officials have been arrested This is not surprising. Since there were colonies there has been crookedness connected y i th gov erning them. Senator Mclaurin has accepted an invitation to deliver an address in Greenville ou May 22nd. Wc suggest that bc bc invited to visit Anderson thc day followiug. Our people no doubt would like to hear his defense of his twf.ion in thc Senate. The Newberry Ohserrer nuts it this way: "If securing Capers' appoint ment ? 5 District Attorney fro w. a lie - publican administration makes Mc laurin a Republican, what about Latimcr, who secured from tho lame administration thc appointment of his own son as star routo inspector?" - mm . mm - Some of tho editors in South Caro lina who arc denouncing and criticis ing Jahn G. Capers for accepting the position of District Attorney from a Republican administration, would gladly accept any.?ob from President McKinley that paid eveu a smaller salary than the District Attorney's. As thc Tennessee Legislature will do nothing for thc protection of sheep, thc Nashville American thoughtfully suggests that it should at least pass a law "to encourage thc cultivation of a better breed of dogs." Possibly this is tho long-sought ground of compro mise and reconciliation of the admir ers of thc two kinds of animals. If only they would not kill sheep wo might have ten dogs where wc now have one. mm . m Tho weakness of tho South Ameri can republics is again fully demon strated by the eonduct of Venezuela. Our minister has been recalled for consolation, and it looks moro like another revolution thero than troublo with this country. The late revolu tion in Columbia is notyet ended, it anu is nearly time for another to break out in some of the other republics. The Latin races have not yet fully demon strated their ability to govern them selves. Tho latest advices to the State De partment in Washington contain tho further details respecting the amount of the indemnities claimed from China by the powers. It appears that these claims have been much exaggerated in some statements, though tho Bum total is still far in excess of tho amount of money it is behoved that China can raise. It is the belief of tho State Department that the total olaims should not be allowed to exceed $150,000,000 or $200,000.000. An old Confederate cavalry saber, a relic of the civil war, whioh was taken from General Forrest's chief of staff nt thc battle of Selma, Ala., by J. II. Hildrcth, of the Chicago Board of Trade Battery, is to be returned to the original owner if alive, or his fam ily if they can bc found alive, at thc Confederate reunion at Memphis, Tenn., this summer. The sword is carefully packed away at thc residence of Mr. Hildrcth and never has left his possession since it came into hist hands forty years ago. m? m mm The Southern railway is getting to be one of the grcat.-st systems io the country and President Spencer will be one of the greatest magnates measured by mileage as well as by brains. Augusta Chronicle. Yes, and the Southern rail?- ay is doing a great and grand work in thc development of tho industrial resources of thc South, and especially in that section which its system traverses. On our third page this week wc publish an interesting artioic from thc New York Financier showing what this great system is doing in thc South in thc industrial line. Thc question of education or no education for a boy or girl often turns upon a very small matter. A few acres more land must bo bought. Thc last crop was notgood. Labor is high and hard to get and the boy's work is too valuable, and beforo tho parent knows it tho boy has come to man hood without tho preparation to make an intelligent chisten. Invest in the boy and not in land. Labor to turn out intelligent citizen:) and not suoh largo crops of cotton for other peoplo to oct the price on. Send tho boy to Pendleton hems.
