WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 22,1902. The Sumter Watt-aman was roundec in l*5?i 3/K] the Trim Southron in 1866 Tbc Watchman and Southron now has the combined circulation and influence or both of the o?d papers, and i?? mani? festly tbe besfc advertising meei am ir' 8* oner The election of Robert O. Purdy of . this city as judge of the Third Circuit elevates to a position of honor and trust a man who bas long had the entire con? fidence arid esteem of the people of Sumter County. Judge-elect Purdy although a Carolinian only by adop? tion, is as true a citizen and as loyal a son of the Game Cock county and the Palniefcto^Sfeate as if his sires for generations had been bred on Caro? lina soil. He has served the Demo? cratic party- ably and well and his ser? vices have been so freely and disinter? estedly given that the people of this county, as a testimonial of appreciation, have stood' ready for a number of years to give him any office that he should ask of them. Now that, as Judge, he will, enter a sphere of great? er usefulness, -where a man of his character and ability can be of large service to the State, his friends in Sumter are confident that he will win for himself a position no less high in the esteem of the people of other coun? ties than he now so justly occupies at home. Gov. McSweeney disappointed his enemies and gratified his friends by vetoing the bill repealing the anti" free pass law. He has acted^wisely ; the reasons advanced in support of his veto were so clearly stated and sound and indisputable from every point of view, that we marvel that any mem? bers were found willing to go on rec? ord as favoring the passage of the bill over the veto. There will be some grand pickings for the favored few when the govern? ment gets . the construction of the isthmian canal well under way. The appropriation of S40,000 by Con? gress for the entertainment of Prince Henry of Prussia while he is in the United States is just a little more than a consistent democrat should stand for. The Prince is as welcome a visit? or as any other German gentlemen who comes to our shores, but there is no sense in . spending forty thousand dollars; on him. The National Government has spent millions of dollars in building good roads in Porto Rico, Cuba and the Philippines within the past three years, but whenever the question of appropriating money for river and harbor or road improvements is dis? cussed in Congress there is an outcry against extravagance, especially if any large appropriation is asked for a Southern river or harbor. It has often been stated in Congress that the National Government had no authori? ty to expend money for road improve? ment, yet money is poured out by the million to build roads in possessions beyond the seas. If one half the money that has been spent on^ the conduct of the Philippine war had been devoted to the building of good highways in the several State?, or on the improvement of cur rivers and harbors, tho country would have re? ceive;! same benefit instead of having nothing to show for the wasted hun? dreds o? millions save the odium of an infamous and brutally conducted war. > Kaukauna, Wis, Jnauary 19.-A general strike was ordered today at a joint meeting cf the Appleton, Kau kauna ;.nd Neenah lodges of the Uni? ted Brotherhood of Paper Makers, which will result, in less than three weeks. In closing the twenty-five mills in the State of Wisconsin, throwing out of employment 3,000 laborers and canting off 7S0 tons a day from the su.;.;)!;. of the paper market, unless the demands of the union for shorter .hours shaii be granted. 'It is claimed that the movement, is soon to spread through every paper making district in the Northwest. MKSEARO'S COTTON LETT?R. . New York. Jan. 20.-A firm market 'in Liverpool caused a slight advance at the opening but without any in? crease in tho demand, which was not enthusiastic. After a <iaiet hour the market broke quickly on the large esti mate at Houston for tomorrow. Re? ceipt; ai the semi-weekly interior towns foreshadow a movement of over 70,0>'> bale-; au a inst 40,000 last year and 6,000 ic tte bumper crop year. The dec! ir. o was or. long selling, the trade is so puzzled at the contrast be? tween the mail advices reporting ex? haustion and the enormous receipts at the interior towns that they will not sell short. It is thought the amount ia sight this week will exceed last season by nearly 4.000 bales. Every one asks where does it come from if prevailing crop estimates are correct. Hubbard Bros. & Co.

A Scheme to Control Traffic Rates to be Advanced on al! Merchandise. London, Jan. 21.-A representative of The Associated Press has secured an authoritative statement regarding the rumored shipping deals, which while confuting the reports of the amalgamation of several lines, reveals the fact that neogtiations towards a trade agreement are being conducted on a larger scale than hitherto hinted at. What has actually happened is this: Every line trading between England and America, except one, has agreed to form a freight combination upon a basis considerably higher than the rates at present in force. That one exception, however,' threatens to upset the prolonged negotiations, for today 15 firms withdrew their previous assent, declaring that unless this one exception came in the combine would be valueless. The line which has so disarranged the calculations, for until today the success of the scheme was believed to be practically assured, is comparatively unimportant and plies between London and the United States. The extent which the proposed com? bination had attained can be judged from the fact that- the 15 withdrawals do not constitute 50 per cent, of the firms interested. A representative of one of the lines most intimately con? cerned said that it looked today very much as if the whole plan would fall through, though he addmitted that strenuous efforts would be adopted to persuade the backsliders to come in again and leave the unimportant ex? ception to fight its own battle. The reports of a financial amalgam? ation between the White Star, Ameri? can, Atlantic transport and other lines are strenuously denied. New England History. In a speech in the Senate yesterday Mr. Tillman, of South Carolina, made an observation which will give griev? ous offense to New England, and doubtless provoke a crushing rejoin? der from the Senators from that sec? tion. Mr. Tillman, according to a Washington dispatch, "spoke of the achievements of the South Carolina troops in the Revolutionary war, and said that the battles fought in his State were more important than those fought in Massachusetts. "We don't want Massachusetts to bag all of the glory," he added, "for, as our illus? trious Rear Admiral Schley has said of a later triumph of our arms, there is glory enough for all." It is re? grettable that Mr. Tillman has been led into this indiscreet utterance. Upon the best "Massachusetts authori? ty, it can be asserted that the Revolu? tionary war was waged solely and ex? clusively by the descendants of the Pilgrim Fathers, despite all statements co the contrary. George Washington, the great soldier of the Revolution, was not, as some ill-informed persons assert, a Virginian of the cavalier type, but a pure-blooded son of a "Praise-God-Earebones" sire. Thom? as Jefferson was of undiluted Puritan ancestry, and the Declaration of In? dependence was a rehash of the ex? pressions of Boston tea-party patriots. Massachusetts troops, alone and unas? sisted, fought Burgoyne to a standstill and compelled him to surrender. The captured of Cornwallis at Yorktown, Va., was a triumph of New England valor and generalship, ' the French allies of the Revolutionists bein? merely spectators, who were permitted to be present to see how Massachusetts could humble "perfidious Albion." Thc battles in the South were all fought by New England warriors, the natives coming upon the field after the victories were won to congratulate the lesions from Boston upon their invin? cible courage. Some historians who have not availed themselves o? the only reliable source of information have rashly asserted that John Paul Jones, the dashing sea fighter, was born in Scotland. Of course, this can not be the fact. Jones' ancestors came over on the Mayflower, and the naval hero was born under the shadow of the sacred codfish. In the second war with England Massachusetts maintained her supremacy. That cul? tured Bostonian, Andrew Jackson, was in command of the troops which won the famous battle at New Or? leans, while the glorious achievements of our navy on the Great Lakes and elsewhere must be fairly attributed to New England. Mr. Tillman's friends will be surprised to find that be is not conversant with history as it is writ ten in Boston. After the Senators from that part, of the country have finished with him he will be a wiser andfa sadder man. Hejwill learn that every great and good man who l?as had a hand in making this republic was a New Englander. South Carolinians, Virginians and Pennsylvanians may have made feeble efforts to be useful, bal their labors were, of course, in : vain. When Mr. Hoar turns his bat- ! teries upon .Mr. Tillman the latter will discover just, how insignificant and trivial a part everybody except the Pilgrim Fathers played in j the de? velopment of thc United States, lt is impossible not to feel sorry for the South Carolina Senator, for his mo? tives were good, even if his discretion was below par and his knowledge of American history sadly inadequate. Baltimore Sun. Friars Versus Aguinaldo. Washington, Jan. 18.-Secretary Root was heard on the question of the friar lands in the Philippines before the House committee on insular affairs today. He said these land? holdings constituted one of the chief causes of discontent among the people, they were the hot-beds of insurrection and had furnished Aguinaldo his chief appeal to popular prejudice. The Sec? retary said the religious orders so fully recognized the bad condition of affairs that they were disposed to sell out, and he urged that the Government should take advantage of the oppor? tunity to remove the chief causes of discontent in the islands. He did not believe condemnation proceedings would be necessary as there were indi? cations that a fair price could be agreed upon. A rough estimate of the value of the lands, he said, was from five to seven and one-half million dollars, American money. Secretary Root began his statement by explaining the enormous power which the religious orders had lung exercised in the Philippines. They were represented at Madrid and the Archbishop was quite as powerful as the Governor General of the islands. The orders had largely sup? planted the native priests. As a re? sult of the great political power of the orders the friars became the medium of communication between the local parishes and the central govern? ments. They held large tracts of the best land, amounting to about 400,000 acres at the time of American occupa? tion. The people rented the lands and thus a landlord and tenant system was now in operation. This caused incense hatred and Secretary Root said the feeling of the tenant classes was not equalled in bitterness by anything in Ireland. Aguinaldo had taken advantage of this intense feeling of the tenants against the friar landlords and the movement had become very popular. ' The Secretary said that about the most important thing to be done at this time was to dispose of the friar question, as it was felt that when landed proprietorship was brought to an end most of the agitation would be disposed of.. The friars had been driven from the land in many cases, he said, and if they returned the peo? ple would kill them. Appeals had been made to the war department to collect rents due. but the Secretary said this could not be done without the use of troops. Secretary Root said that no religious question was involved, as it was simply a condition that existed and was fully recognized. The friars themselves were so fully alive to the conditions that they would doubtless be ready to dispose of their lands. At all events, Mr. Root said, they were a part of an or? ganization and he apprehended that the disposition of the lands would be determined by higher Church author? ities than the friars themselves. Government Crop Report. The report of the statistician of the Department of Agriculture appearing at the close of last week was a disap? pointment to the grain trade in that final figures of yield were not forth? coming, the curious explanation being given that no further estimates of crop yield or of the number of farm animals will be forthcoming until the census figures can be compared with the de-, partaient returns. This seems hardly wise or proper under present condi? tions. One of the chief values asso? ciated with government figures in past years has been the regularity of their appearance. As has already been shown, this custom of regularity was departed from in the changing cf the date of collection of cotton-crop re? ports. Whether this change accounts for the variation between the govern? ment and other estimates yet remains to be settled. The hesitation shown in the matter of grain statistics at first sisrht would seem to indicate a lack of confidence in department figures which is depressing from the standpoint of the statistician who is interested in statistics in each and every year of the decade and not merely concerned with census returns. Owing to its mixed character, the re? port issued last week had little effect. It showed the average yield per acre of wheat in the United States in 1901 to have been 14.S bushels, as compared with 12.3 bushels in 1900, 12.3 bush? els in 1899, 15.3 bushelsjn 1898 and 13.3 bushels the mean of the averages of the last ten years. This was con? strued by some to indicate a total crop of 675,000,000 bushels, as against the 659,000,000 bushels estimate made; upon the earlier published condition figures. The newly seeded area of winter wheat is provisionally estimated at j 32,OCX),000 aces, an increase ol' 5.6 per cent, upon the area estimated to have ! been sown in the fall of 1900. The j newlv seeded ?area of winter rye is j provisionally estimated at 1,205,000; acres, an increase of 2.9 per cent, upon j the area estimated^to have been sown j I in the fall of 1900. The department has no reports as to the condition of; winter wheat later thar. December 1. At that date it was Si">.7 per cent. of the normal, as compared with 1/7.1 p-rcent, in liKK>, 97:1 per cent, in 1899 and 92.6 per cent, in 1898. This latter was regarded as a rather bullish , feature, offsetting the depressing fea- | ! tures conveyed in the figures of yield per acre, but the main reason for the January thaw in prices this week is to bs found in the technical situation of the market, which appears to be overbought. It is to be noted that the decline has made for a better out- j look for export business, which was i practically killed by the former high j prices.-Bradstreet's. DEPARTURE OF TRAINS FROM SUMTER.

An interesting Issue. Columbia, Jan. 20.-Before the State supreme court today a neat question was argued. It seems that St. Phil? ip's church in Charleston owns a par? sonage on Glebe street. The rector, wishing to reside in another portion of the city, had the officers of the church to rent the parsonage, and with the rent pay the rent of the bouse he oc? cupied. As the parsonage property ranted well, the county auditor of Charleston county placed it upon the tax books and began to charge taxes against it. Then the church authori? ties came before the supreme coart on mandamus proceedings to compel the county auditor to withdraw the tax charges. The case was argued yes? terday by Mr. Bacot for tho church and Assistant Attorney General Gun? ter on behalf of the county auditor. Of course the issue is over the right of the church owners of the property t3 use it for other than church pur? poses. THE STATE BUILDING. Columbia, Jan. 20.-The commis? sion in charge of the State building at the Charleston exposition held an im? portant meeting Monday evening. Steps were taken to provide for the immediate completion of the handsome structure, so that all outstanding ex? hibits may be be installed at once and be ready for the visit of the general assembly to the exposition on Febru? ary 1. This meeting was made neces? sary by the persistent delays of the contractors in putting the finishing touches to the structure. A jury in the Supreme Court of New York has rendered a verdict for 86,639 65 in favor of Prof. Rudolph Witthaus, who sued the city to recover 86,180 for services in making a chemical analysis of portions of the remains of Henry Barnet, whose death figured in the indictment and trial of Roland B. Molineux. Prof. Witthaus said he was 366 hours in making the analysis, for which he charged ?15 per hour, with*8250 for consultation and 8500 for incidentals. The verdict rendered in? cluded 8459 interest on the amount sued for. .

Civil Government a Success-in? surrection Nearly at an End. San Francisco, Jan. 21.-Gov. Gen. Taft, who arrived from Manila last night, landed today. Discussing conditions in the Philippines, Gov. Taft said : "I wish the press would correct the impression that there is war on all the islands. The insurrection is confined to two localities-the province of i-Batangas and the island of Samar. This morning I received a most en? couraging cablegram from Gen. Wright, who is the acting governor in 1 my absence. It was said that owing to Gen. Bells' strong repressiv-3 meas? ures the trouble in Batanga wes being quieted. He further said that 700 rifles had been surrendered and that as there are only from 1,100 to 1,200 rifles in the province there is no doubt that Batangas will be as peaceful as any of the other provinces. "I do not think Gen. Bell will have to adopt the reconcentrado principle in Batangas as his dispatch plainly indi? cates that the province is in a fair way of pacification. "I wish to impress upon everybody that civil government is a success. There is a strong psace party in the islands, and it is composed of the most influential men among the Filip? inos. They are working earnestly and zealously toward bringing about hap? py relations between their countrymen and the government. They are doing all that is in their power to bring in the recalcitrant leaders. I have never been so encouraged as to the prospects of the Philippines as I have within the past three months. There has certain? ly been a great change in the senti? ment of the people. They are begin? ning to appreciate the fact that civil government means better times for them. "There are 35 provinces capable of government. The only place where there is trouble is in the island of Samar. That is the most difficult island for military operations. There are no roads and the troops have to use water courses to follow the natives to their fastnesses. But we are all confident that it is only a question of a short time when the island will be pacified." Gov. Taft will return to Manila about March 1. Express? Messengers Fight on Train. Sanders, of Hagood, Sumter County, Shoots McLeod, of N. C. Through the Thigh. 2 Laurens, Jan. 20.-In a personal aifficulty this aftrenoon, Express Mes? sengers McLeod and Sanders in the car of the former on the northbound Columbia, Newberry and Laurens pas? senger train near Goldville, in this country, Mr. McLeod was shot through the thigh by Mr. Sandels. Both came on to the city and the wounded man received prompt medical attention and is reported doing well. Mr. McLeod is from North Carolina, while Mr. Sanders is of Hagood, this State. Their friends here regret the occurrence. Biggest Yarn Ever Told. From the Chicago Chronicle. Los Angeles, Cal., January 16. Jessie Wilson yesterday at Santa Monica fished from the Pacific a bot? tle containing a message which came from Central Illinois, around Cape Horn. The message was written by Walter Roeder, of Bloomington, 111, and, after being inclosed in a bottle, was thrown into the Mackinaw River. It is supposed to have worked its way into the Atlantic Ocean via the Illi? nois and Mississippi rivers and con? tinued its wave-tossed journey until, nearly two years after its start, it bohbed up on the coast of Southern California, 10,000 miles from home. Mr. Roeder in answer to a telegram, confirms the message as his own. The editor of the Christian Advo? cate (New York i relates in his paper that cn one occasion, not long before the firing on Fort Sumter, he spent "some hours" in the Representatives chamber in the Capitol at Washington, "The majority of the members ap? peared to be more or less intoxicated," he says. "Some of them were unable to stand. Others were guying the Speaker, Pennington, and in fact so tortured him that worn cut, he left the chair and put Schuyler Cofax in his place, who stayed there many hours. It was a night session." t BOARDING and Lodging, SI per dav. Reduction by the week. H. G. M?ldrow, 101 Spring Street, Charles? ton, S. C. Jan. 22-lm. WORK for ladies or gentlemen at home.
