After reading the testimony in thc SainpaonSchlcy inquiry, the public has about concluded that Admiral Ccrvera's fleet was destroyed. That is thc main point, anyway. The report comes from Washington that John G. Capers, United States District attorney for this State, has been appointed by Senator Hanna to a vacancy in thc Republican National Committee caused by the death of A. E. Webster who represented South Carolina in that committee. Tho prohibition people of the town of Dickson, Tenn., have struck on an original way to get rid of the saloon. There is only one in that town, and they have opened an opposition bever age dispensary where drinks of all sorts are sold at cost. When they drive tho other fellow out they will shut up the shop. Our young men and boys must re collect that whiskey sold through a dispensary is just as deadly a foe to good morals, good manners and good health, as that which comes from the lowost dives in the land. They must remember that there is small hope of success for the man or boy who gives himself to strong drink. "Wine is a mooker, strong drink is raging, and he that is deceived thereby is not wise."_ President Roosevelt haB appointed Ez-Gov. Jones, of Alabama, United States District Judge for the northern and middle uisiriuta of that State. Ile is a Democrat, and it is expected thet Southern Republicans will protest. Gov. Jones is not only one of the ablest lawyers in Alabama, but one of the most prominent and highly es teemed eitizens of thc State. Such acts of thc President will place him in the same high esteem in the South in which his deceased predecessor was held. The Philadelphia Record very tru?s says that there is no need to alter thc constitution or in any wise furthei abridge the hospitality or the freedom of the people of the United States ic dealing with anarchism. There are i hundred reaaons for keeping anarchist out of the country where there wa! ono for the exclusion of the Chinese The anarchist lands with the deolarec intention of pulling down the honst wherein he finds shelter and proteo tion. The aim of the law should be t( find him out and keep him ont. Il he gets into the country undeteotcc he should be deported when discover ed. But there is no need to ohangi tho Constitution in order to rid our selves of these degenerates. To d< that would be practically to admi that a sooial outcast with a pistol ii his hand may compel a change in th< form of the government, Mr. H. C. Hasdy, who livoa noa 'Richland, Ga., who haa been success ful in raising broom corn, ia quoted a follows about the croi "Tho raisin j of broom corn is a noir industry in th South. The average product per aar is 500 pounds of brush. When thi soil is Ssc ? muesli as i.u?? pound can be raised. As there is no substi tut? for broom corn brush, it is alway in demand. It ia a crop that can b easily cultivated, and grows best wher native corn grows best, requiring th same fertilizing. It does best in bot tom lands. In planting it the row ahould bc three to four feet apart. 1 can be planted in hills two or thre feet apart, with five or six in the hil If drilled, the stalks should be four c five inches apart, or what is bette; ohop out with a No. 2 hoe, havin three or four in a bunch. Cultivai the same as corn, but be careful nc to cover the small planta. Tho tim of harveat in this section (southwof Georgia) is in July. Market price range from 5 cents to 8 cents pt pound. The seed is fine feed A chickens. Mixed with oats it ia fie feed for atook. Cattle and hogs wi thrive on it." In forccaating the future of tl South, Major J. W. Thomas, Proa dent aof the Nashville, Chattanoo{ and St. Louia Bailway, bases h sunny predictions upon the followit elementary factors: First, the capaoity of tho soil of tl South to feed five times the popnl tion it has at present. Second, the large area of its co fields, embracing 47,000 square mil that have seams of workable thioknee Third, the large quantity of iron o found in eight out of fourteen sout ern states. Fourth, tho ability, by reason \the cheapness of coal and iron ore to make cheap iron, which is now t standard, basis and meter of civilis tion. , /Fifth, tho natural- advantages ? j tho manufacture - of cotton and wm Sixth, the large extent of forei and the thousands of industries il: will naturally spring from the pr; enco of such forests. ....flTT.",HC,r.

Josh Ashley and the Old Soldiers. Kimon INTKI.I.IGKNCKR: As Hon. J. W. Ashley hos had something to say in THE INTKI.LIG KNCKR about tho pen sions and tho Soldiers1 Home, it is but fair for a Confederate Veteran to reply to him on the same subject. When pensions for indigent Confed erate soldiers was being discussed in cr Legislature, Mr. Annley ?UH re ported to have suid t hat the Anderson Poor House was a good enough place for any old aoldier. And yet Wyley Smith, of Co. li, l?th s.e. V., who was wounded in the battle ot' Atlanta and carried a ball in the roof of his mouth for thirty-seven yearn, died in earvin Township on May nth lust in abject poverty and want beforo he would spend his last days in this same Poor House. For years his wife has been a cripple and could only Bit in a chair by bis bedside and watch him suffer and die, while his State handed him tho paltry sum of ?r" 12.40 for his year's sup port. I quote this paragraph from Mr. Ash ley's article: "1 believe that South Carolina is able to support every old soldier in comfort if she will cut off the extravagant expenditure to the State institutions where the rich luau's sons are educa ted at the expense of the common peo ple." This would be crippling the State's noble institutions to support her crip pled heroes, or robbing Peter to pay Paul-this would be patriotism retro grading-patriotism of the pirate kind; or patriotism on the back track. No, Josh, we don't wont anything like that. Tho men who had the grit to leave their happy homes and fnen the terrors of war in the defence of the honor of their State, yet have enough grit left to battle the wolf of hunger away from their doors, even with their wooden legs or the stump of an ampu tated arm, before they will consent to eat the brend of tho lifo of our State's institutions, and their comrades and their comrade's sons will back them up with a continuation of neighborhood charities oeforo we will see our blood stained and bullet-pierced banners tar nished by trailing in tho dust of dis honor at the funeral of our State's great institutions of learning.
