'Air*. Chinese Minister has dis-!
covered another reign of terror ,
among the Chinese in Colorado.
, Hud has got tlie Secretary of State
to ask the governor of Colorado to ;
look into the matter. He can look
in or look out, but if the miners' j
union of Ouray has said the Chin 1
ese must go from the place, we (
are inclined to think they will go.
Gen. Free Funktox made a
hull's eye when he said: "It is perfectly
proper for us to have all
aorts of opinions as to what we
shall do with the Philippines, but,
>r heaven's sake, let lis keep them
H| W to ourselves until every inch < f
Hip thai territory recognizes the sov- j
I i reignty of the United Stutes.
The Amendment-prohibiting senators,
representatives and other of.
ficia'a becoming beneficiaries under
the Ship Subsidy bill offered by
MoLaurin, of Miss., is calculated
to make every honest. American
blush with slmine, to think that it
should have been considered neeessury.

The governor of Virginia had
all the politician's fear of the
[strikers' mob which controlled
Norfolk for a time, but lie doesn't
deserve to be singled out fi?r abuse
any more than the other men who
j nave unuer similar circum -.tam-es
acted similarly.

It ought to be com for ti n g, although
we are sure it isn't, to tho
fellow who always wants to borrow
money, to know that a new national
bank, which expects to live by
loaning money, is established in
this country every day.
-
Several reasons have been
given out, but our guess is that
die President headed off his
daughter's intended coronation |
trip because In* knows adverse
public opinion when he he meets

Would it have been more wick- j

Subsidy Bill Passes Senate.
A Washington despatch of Monday
says that after prolonged debute,
the senate today passed the
ship subsidy bill, the final vote
beiup 42 to 31. Senators A'lison
and Del liver of Iowa, Spooner
and Quartes of Wisconsin and
Proctor and Dillingham of Ve niont,
Republicans, voted a pa in
flnal pnssape of the bill. Scnat r
M-Laurin. of South Carolina,
voted for it.
The Commutation Tax.
Some question has arisen in
reference to the commutation tax.
Heretofore the tax has been different
in certain counties, some hav!
insr it $1. others ?2 and still others
a different tipure. The last legislature
passed an act makiup the
tax unitormlv $1 and roquir np
that it should be paid by March 31.
In some counties where the tax
was $2 it had already been paid by
commuters, and county treasurers
have been makiup inquiries what
must be done about it.
Thoupli no otlieial opinion has .
been made on the question it has !
been found that the act does not
po into ? ffect until the 17th inst
so up to that, time the old lawstood
as it previously was in tinvarious
counties. Commuters who
pay between now and March 31.

Southern Gets The 3 C's.
The road know in the days of
its projection as the Three ('V.
has, by the act. of the Legislature,
passed into the hands of the
Southern Railway. The vim and
spirit of Col. Tripp has kept the
road from falling to pieces, and it
is said that it will cost the Southern
$100,000 to make the road bed
safe or passable in some places.
The S uthern will take charge
of the old road on the first day of
April and will immediately commence
to rehahnitite it. The
road bed will be strengthened and
trestles rebuilt in part. Through
trains from Marion to Columbia
will at once be put on, reaching
the latter city vi i Camden. Kingsville
and the South Carolina road.

In the Rock Kill Herald of today.
Col. Tripp denies ihe above
statement and says he knows
nothing of the Southern's taking
charge of the road on April 1.
Is it Warren's Body?
A Branchville despatch of Friday
to The State says that the
body of a man?supposed to be
that of Bartow Warren ? was found
floating in lOdisto river this morning
about a ipiarter of a mile below
where the express safe was thrown
in the river some time ago.
The body is badly decomposed, j
There were a shell belt and two
pistols buckled aroun I the body j
and express envelopes in the man's
p< ickets.
One eye and a half ?>f the side
of the face are tfone. Tbe body j
nieasures 5 feet S incites; the shoe |
is number six, the hand resembles
that of a woman. There is a j?old
filling in one tooth. A belt around
the body contains two dS-ealibre.
6-inch pistols and lie wore one
cheap nickel watch, showing time
8-45. Blue coat and vest and dark
h ck pants are the attire.
On account of the deeomp sition
of the b sly it. could not be
positively identitied, but from;
what parties say it is almost certain
that it is the body of Bartow
Warren. It not Warren it is almost
certain that it is the bod v of
one of the men connected with the
express robbery near Fifty-eiobt
on the night of January 27tb.
The most reasonable theorv ad
vanced in Unit in crossim* t 10
river after dumping ihe safe, the
robber. weighted by the pistols
and cartridges was drowned.
