'The People of the Northern Statee Should Take Some Paine to Remedy the Fault of Their Representatives by the Most Liberal Participation in the Plans of the South Carolina Inter state and West Indian Exposition !" rrom Tbo PU11td?lphl:i Times. Certainly it is time to revise die policy of appropriations for exhibitions. Congress was origilally very cautious in entering jpon this field at all. The celebration of the centennial of ndependence in 1876 war a intional affair if any could be vnd yet it was with great difficulty that Congress was pertuaded to make a small loan to lie Philadelphia exhibition, vliicli was repaid out of the eceipts, dollar for dollar. Free lisposal of the public funds has tdvanced so rapidly since then hat later oxhibitons have been >rganized largely at the expense >f the United States. At this session of congress hroe or four exhibitions wore eeking appropriations and the iconomists in- congress detorliined that it was necessary to >ut 011 the brakes. The deternination was praiseworthy ; but iuw was it carried out7. Five nillions of dollars was appropiated to the St Louis exhibiton of 1903, which is to comnemorato the centennial of the Louisiana purchaso, but the luarter of a million modestly isked by Charleston to aid an exlibition which the cotton States iro organizing with most ad nirablo enterprise, and with a imely rofprence to new ccmrncrial relations with, the West Inlies, was persistently and >ffensively denied. If any attempt had been made o distinguish between a nation.1 and a local exhibition, or ?otween degrees of govorment ontrol, thero might have been omo reason in this discriminaion. When it is put on the oaonsible ground of economy the xcuse is ridiculous. The spiggot s closed for South Carolina, nit the bung is opened for dissouri. It has been charged that Sentor Tillman was induced to bstaiu from filibustering against be army bill by the promise of bis appropriation for Charleston, f that is true it deprives him of ympathy in his disappointment, nit it does not justify those who tiade a promise they could not r did not keep. And while every ort of petty local interest was llowed to feed freely at the pubic treasury, it was infamous to ut off the one small appropriaion thai would have been of nore real public value than hem all. The great industrial 8tates of he North and West are able to ako caro of themselves. The loutbern States are trying to do o, but under a weight of social nd economic burdens, inherited rom a pant generation, that enities them not only to sympathy nd encouragement, but to active id. The exhibition at Charlei011 ia a eerioua effort for indusrial, commercial and educational dvancement that ought to have men helped. The refusal of Mich lelp by a Congress that has surjassed all others in extravagance a a mark of narrowness and petty iTER. 8EMI-V ANCAWE?taO~8lT prejudice that we hoped had lonj ago passed away.

The good people of Anderson county fail to rejoice over the weird stories printed in what they call the yellow journals about the "slave horror." There was more or less foundation,however, for the stories. The briel presentment of the jury, the charge of the court and the side lights thrown on the convict lease system made a thrilling tale which was seized for what it was worth. Especially is the wrath of the people hurled at the Philadelphia North American, a newspaper which sent a staff man to Anderson to gather facts about the methods of the alleged slave dealers. The bloody pictures in The North Ameriean were more startling than the story itself. One picture prominently displayed in certain places here is that representing Colonel Hammond's stockade.

He coul probably afford to have a pre* agent if he wanted one, but tha would be an even more radios , departure for hie profession tha , Wall street speculation. An l way, he says the story isn't true 1 and that shows that be is not rt , sponsible for its birth. Whoevc did start it put it like this : , Adam, being most polite an attentive head waiter, with i remarkable memory as to th crotchets of rich men, whet he old or young, made the acquaint ance, professionally of course, c the late Collis P. Huntingto while that distinguished citize 1 was a guest of the Holland House He looked out for the wants c the old millionaire and earne his regard. This regard material , ized in something more than able i bodied tins of the customary kint Instead they were the tips on th market and the thrifty Adati trading wisely, made more mone in a few day thau he could hav saved in many years of very clos economy. This he nut awa where it would be ?ufe. From time to time he learne other thingg of value from Mi Huntington end his pile kep swelling. Theu Mr. Huntiugto 1 died Sud Aumfu mourned.

They used to tal about stocks and deals in th street, and one day recently M Schwab expressed some opii iocs about which way the en of a certain etock waa going t jump. He was quite sure h knew, because he and his friend were doing a little dealing in i themselves. Mr Schwab weut on with hi i plana with reference to thi stock, and discovered t' at som one was doing a lot of buying He inquired, and was informs* that the buying was for accoun of a Mr Brunner. I "Brunner? Brunner?" snii Mr Schwab. "Who the duco i We llrnrmanV T ^ Aui A^I uiix^i i i uvtvi ncmiu. u . him". Then he carried his inventus tion further and found Ikuuno was the attentive Adam at th Holland House. He remember* that be had told Adam after very satisfactory dinner that thi stoek wan going up, but he neve, expected Adam te go into i heavily enough to effort th market. "It's the best joke ou me the I know of," Mr Schwab is naid t have told a friend. "Why, h put $10,000 into the stock spoke about, and the tun of th thing is thai he got in cfono t the bottom, lower, m fact, tha >*4 JtAw \-K. Jl .&. \A - ?- ^ 901 '8 the others got theirs."
