SELL THE PHUILLIPINES. The certainty that the United States will have the dispo.al of the Philli pine Islands is naturally causing a great deal of discussion as to what will be done with them. Already it is to be seen that there is an element among our so called statesr.en who are in favor of holding the Phillipines as United States territory. Such a thing will be contrary to the whole ,enius of our Government, and we oelieve the beginning of a very dan gerous step. As suggested from dif ferent sources the Monroe doctrine will have to be abandoned if the United States permanently retain these islands. Europe can very properly say that "you have acquired territory on this side of the water, and now you can not deny our right to take some slices of territory on your side; shinney on your own side or we shall strike you." should the United States njd the Pbi lipines as their own territo-y, it will add to our already vast sea coast, necessitating a large standing army and a powerful nary. This means another step towards a strong centralized government, a tendency aliready threatening dangers to the Republic. It will mii the United States with tha so called Eastern question, and then it will net be with Spain alone that we shall have to be prepared to contend, but the whole world, with the possible exception of Great Britain, and she will use the Phillipines as our possessions to drag as into her quarrels with Russia and other countries. Then again once start this new de parture of adding to our territory by right of conquest, and the greed for more land will increase. We shall then want Portico Rico, and even Cuba. The homogenous government is the strong and stable government. We have enough hetroge.neity now, and - we do iaot iwant *any Spanish subjects ~--~to controL. Sell :he Phillipines, and lOt's hold what we now own.. Wrr.uoU any disposition whatever to shield a criminal, we protest against hold a preliminary in an alleged arson case. Meyers has just come amongst Us, and we know nothing of his ante cedents, but if it is sought to charge him with.arson the law provides a way. Neither council or any legal tribunal has the power to compel him to testify under oath as was done the other evening. Without la warrant hes can not be arrested; and accused he san not be compelled to testify in any court. If there is evidence against Meyers, let a warrant be taken out as prescribed by law. It is often said that there is no power not assumed by a town council, but we believe that this is the first instance where a man has been summoned to attend an in vestigation into a capital offense by such a body. Tu Cape Verde fleet, it is officially announced, has landed at Cadiz. This means that Spain will leave her West Iundies possessions to the mercy of the United States. It will b -no trouble whatever to land itroops ?. '"ub' huow because 'Spain h,. no ileet *o prevent it. One theory is that Spain will send her fleet to Manila and attack 1)ewey. The so-called Cape Verde fleet would be more than a match for the un armored Asiatic squadron, but in the meantime our government will ;see t o it that Dewey is not taken by surprise. TaE companies in Ca "p at Colum bia have been thinned by the physi cians, and there is an urgent demand for recruits. Already a battalion is wanted to proceed to Tampa, and it is not ready to respond. Of course, companies desire to preserve their organization, but this can not be done. Those who volunteer are supposed to do so from patriotic motives, and there should be no kick about maintaining the company organizations. EDITon GoKzaLEs, of tbe Columbia State, has gone to Tampa to join the regular army, and failing in that he will join the Cuban army. Cuba has no warmer friend than Mr. Goniz iles. We hope Col. Alston will sncceed in having the South Carolina troops placed under General Lee. They will feel better under a general named Lee. THEs Oregon will have smooth and safe sailing now that no Spanish fleet is in position to disturb her. Bucklen's Arnica Salve.

Stuart, an Atlanta Attorney, has a Scheme to Revolutionize Journalism in War. Alanta Journal. W. B. Stuart, originally from South Carolina, but at present a practicing attorney of Atlanta, with law offices in the city cours building, has devised a scheme which, if successful, will revolutionize journalism on the field of battle. Mr. Stuart ii also a telegrapher and has worked twelve years in some of the largest telegraph ofices in the South. Since the great naval battle between the American and Spanish fleets at .aanila, Mr. Stuart has carefully watched the eagerness with which a natriotic public had looked and looked again for something definite from the gallant commodore, Dewey, and his aeet, and except through Spanish sources they have looked in vain. He saw the impatienc3 of mankind in waiting until a dispatch boat could be sent from Manila to Hong Kong, a distance of about 600 miles, necessi tating a three or four days' delay in receiving Dewey's report, and he said, "Can electricity be a failure? Have we got the old stage-coach method of conveying communications?" He thought and thought again, and now says he has solved the problem in such a manner as will place. the battleships in direct communication with the shore, and the battlefields in direct communication with the cities, hence to the world. He says these engage ments can ba reported by a system of telegraphy something like the present system of reporting base ball ga-nes in detail direct from the hall parks. So sanguine is Mr. Stuh. in his belief that he can make a success of his scheme he is now engaged in organiz ing a company of 50 telegraphers to go to Cuba an' demonstrate it. When seen by a Journal reporter to day, Mr. S:uart ,aid: "Yo-, it is true that I am o:auiziog a c.rn<ny com posed solely of telegraph-rs to go to Caba. My idea is to relieve the anx iety of mo:hers, sisters, daugters and wives whi:e their loved ones are in Onba fighting for their country by a system of telegraphy direct from the scene of b.tie that will enable us to report in detail everything that trans pires withcnt waiting a v eck perhaps to learn the news. In this enlight eued age there is a clamor for news instanter i:. a crisis of this kind and I hope to be ab!e to satisfy :he public demand." "Bat how wil! you acomiplish this?" he was asked. "In answer to that questian I prefer to wait until I have placed my scheme before the war department. Jast aR soon as I have secured the requisite number of telegraphers who will accompany me I will ask my friend Congressman Livingston to place the matter before the war department in Washington, and if unfavorable I shall then ask the enterprising newspapers to aid me in my venture to secure news 'when it is news.'" Continuing, Mr. Stuart said: "Already an electrical house has agreed to' furnish one-third of the material to be used gratis. It would be surprising to tell you how cheap such a scheme could be satisfactorily conduce. If the war departmeup turns down my scheme I shall then ask that we. be allowed to accompany the troops under the samre regulations as fo esaes do not] fnancial aid. If they do, Why we can. instead of moviDg to the sound of electricity, move to the sound of the dran. I have noted the modas oper audi of the government's telegraph feld troin, but it's not modern enough for this enlightened age. "What 1 want first is fifty telegra phers between twenty and forty years of age. Help me to secure them." IRow to Look Good.
