Hew York Sun Declares War Upon Roosevelt. The New York Sun, which since the first nomination of McKinley, has "been one of the staunchest Republican ^pBxponents in the country, and, during "the McKinley administration of Presi? dent's term, was regarded as. the ad? ministrations, organ, has squarely turn? ed against Roosevelt.* The Sun is con? sidered the representative of .J. P. ?Morgan's views and capitalistic inter Hpsts generally, and, since Roosevelt's j anti-trust campaign has shown a dis Rgeatisfacton with the administration. This has reached a culmination in the following double-leaded editorial in Its issue of Wednesday last : President Roosevelt holds that his nomination by the national Republican convention, in 1904, is an assured thing, fie makes no concealment of Ms conrvictioh, and it is unreservedly shared by his friends. We think Presi endt Roosevelt is right From the day that the President took up 'his quarters in the White Bouse, he has never hesitated frankly to avow his barning desire to be elect : -ed to the chief magistracy. He has proclaimed it on all occasions with engaging candor, and has unreservedly avowed his intention of gratifying his honorable ambition by every rightful means within his reach. There are strong and convincing reasons why the President should feel that success is within his grasp. He lias used the opportunities that he Ifoand or created, and he has used them with consummate skill and unde? niable success. When, at Buffalo, over the remains of the murdered President, Mr. Roose? velt pledged his honor to the American : '-people that he would carry on to their I fruition and conclusion the policies framed ^by William McEInley, the whole country rose up at him in accla? mation and approval Never was an utterance of a public man more thank? fully or gladly received. No one thought for a moment of questioning 3Cr. roosevelt's sincerity, and up to the present time no one has question? ed it. There has been naturally, some difference of opinion as to his ideas and methods of carrying out Mr. Mc? Kinley's policies, but no one has thought cf impugning the President's honesty in the matter. Mr. Roosevelt is a self-reliant, self contained man. He works out his con? clusions unaided, shapes Iiis lines of procedure on his own initiative and depends for his action solely upon- his own innate convictions of what is good -ami expedient. Approbative and cor? roborative counsels he gratefully and eagerly accepis. Dissuasive and dep? recatory advice he does not under? stand. Keenly sensitive to the drift of pub- . lie feeling and profoundly impressed ' -by current discussion, the President I saw his way to the sympathies of the people and never hesitated for a mo- J anent. Since the day that he penned , -his first message to Congress, there ' lias been no-public act of Mr. Roose- 1 velt's which has not been undertaken ' ^and executed with an eye single to its ( effect upon his candidacy. He has 1 done nothing perfunctorily or as a maa might who was only conscious -.' that he was President of the United : * States and that he was doing his duty. ? *^fit Roosevelt* with that fateful in- 1 irensity of purpose which so singularly distinguishes his character, has per? mitted nothing to obscure his vision. The Presidency by election, as well as by the decree of* Fate, has never i "passed from before-his waking vision for a moment. Now, however, that be sees himself intrenched in the confi? dence and in the affctions of the j American people he permits himself a : little relaxation. 55ie President has disarmed ali his enemies." Every weapon they had, new or old, has been taken from them, and . added to the now unassailable Roose? velt arsenal Every popular idol, W*ry favorite son, stands forth today incapable of offence. Why should people wonder that Mr. Bryan clings ' 10 silver? What else has he* left to jsHng to? Has not Mr. Roosevelt -absorbed and sequestered every vestige of the Kansas City platform that had a shred of practical value? Suppose, that Mr. , Bryan had been elected President I What could he have accom? plished, compared wita what Mr. fiooseyelt has accomplished? Will his most jjassionate followers pretend for -<*one moment that Mr. Bryan could have wneeived, much less i-mforced, any sach pursuit of the trusts as; that which | 3tr." Roosevelt has just wrought to a triumphant issue? Will Mr. Bryan himself intimate that the Federal courts would have turned to his pro? jects the friendly countenance which they have lent to those of Mr. Roose- ' .reit? v "Where is "government by injunc -tion" gone to? The very emptiness of that once potent phrase is beyond de? scription I A regiment of Bryans could not compete with Mr. Roosevelt in har? rying the trusts, in bringing wealth to its knees and in converting into the' palpable actualities of action the wildest dreams of Bryan's campaign orators. He has outdone them all. And how utterly the President has routed the pretensions of Bryan and -of the whole Democratic horde in re? spect to organized labor! How empty were all their professions, their montbings and their howlings in the face of the simple and unpretentious achievements of the President ? In his own straight-forward fashion he in? flicted upon capital in one short hour of the coal strike a greater humiliation ; than Bryan could have visited upon it in a century. He is the leader of the labor unions of the United States, and they never trusted Bryan and they -?ever voted for him. Mr. Roosevelt ^as put them above the law and above the constitution, because, for him, they are the American people, and they proclaim today that they are for 'Mm, to a man : and they are. Mr. Bryan never could have acom plished what Mr. Roosevelt has done, fie never could have acquired the ?oral support that bas been the Presi? dent's. He lacked the essential things, the personal force, the dignity, the individual distinction, and the .style. The President is the strong man, the leader of the masses. There is a growing feeling that if we do not seed a strong man now the time is sear at hand when we shall need him. Then let us reassure ourselves ghat he is on hand. People compare 3?r. Roosevelt to Germany's strong man, her forceful William. They -?ven compare him to Napoleon. ^Napoleon Bonaparte was a strong nan, aman for gres.t crises, great emergencies. Napoleon mowed down the mob around the Tuileries. But Napoleon did not incite the mob to come to the Tuileries. Rice Culture. Rice culture is making considerable progress in Texas and Louisiana, where in years past put little was grown, while, strange to say, its pro? duction has decreased in sections along ?the Seuth Atlantic, where years ago it was extensively cultivated. In the new rice belt they seem to have much confidence in the future of this industry as a growing and profi? table one. There was an address deliv? ered before th6 Savannah Chamber of Commerce a few nights ago in which reference was made to rice growing in Tesas, which suggested the following editorial by the News: In the course of his remarks before the Chamber of Commerce meeting on Tuesday night Hon* G. Gunby Jordan referred to the cultivation of rice in Texas, saying that there was more money in rice than in the oil wells of Beaumont. Success in the growing of rice in Texas, he said, was due to the new and improved methods introduced by the "Western farmers who have moved into that State. They have ap? plied to rice the same system that is employed in the West in the growing of wheat. The land is thoroughly broken by improved apparatus and the planting and harvesting are done by machinery. The same methods of ir? rigation by means of wells and pumps are used on the rice lands as on the dry wheat lands of the West. The result is large and certain crops. This should be interesting information for the farmers of Georgia, and especially those who own old rice lands. Hiere are tens of thousands of acres of such lands near Savannah that are available for rice culture, many of which were never profitably planted under slave labor. They are rich lands and the only drawback to their being made productive is the want of intelligent and reliable labor to cultivate them. , The labor question could be reduced ? to a minimum by the introduction of : Western methods of farm organization, , and there is ample room and oppor- ; tunity in Lower Georgia and South , Carolina for the experiment The j consumption of rice is increasing every , day. It is as wholesome a food as any grain that grows. The market for it is ready made and the demand is con? tinuously strong. . There is a great opening in this rice section for Wes? tern farmers.

C., says: Tlie safe of Rouse Bros., bankers, was blown open atfer midnight last night and about $3,500 taken by burglars, who effected their escape.

While operations were in progress Prentis Wooten, who rooms across the street, put his head out of tho window, but a bullet from the burglars forced him to take cover. Bloodhounds have been sent for. School Taxes in Florida. Tallahassee, Fla., April 28.-Re? presentative Long introduced today a Joint resolution proposing an amend? ment to the Constitution, providing that in the collection of taxes a separate record be kept of all taxes paid by white and colored tax payers, and that the school fund derived, from taxing each race be devoted exclusive? ly to schools of that race. Thirty-nine voted for the amendment to four against it. A change in the Constitu? tion requires a three-fifths vote of all the members elected to each house. Many did not vote on the amend? ment, ~and it lacked two of receiving tonrequired majority. the Cause of Smallpox. _ . Boston, April 28.-The announce? ment of the discovery of the cause of smallpox was made tonight by Dr. Wm. T. Councilman, professor of pathology in the Harvard Medical School, at a meeting of the Boston Society of Medi? cal science. The announcement is the outcome of the investigations con? ducted by Dr. Councilman, Dr. George Burgess and Dr. Walter Ramsen Brinckerhoff, with the co-operation of the Boston board of health during the recent epidemic of the disease in this city. It has been determined that smallpox is caused by a micro-organ? ism repesentative of the lowest form of animal life. This fact serves to show a relation between smallpox and such diseases as malaria and to distinguish it from many other infectious diseases cused by bacteria. The Cotton Acreage. New York, April 30.-As a result of a special investigation of the acreage planted in cotton this year the Journal of Commerce shows, by reports given in detail from 1,400 correspondents, bhat an increase of 2% per cent in the acreage is probable.

ALFRED BRO^N, A Prominent and Popular Citizen, Says : "After the Use of Paine's Celery Compound, I Am Now in the Best of Health." The greatest of modern physicians, Prof. Edward E. Phelps, M. D., LL. D., after years of long practice and close scientific study, gave to suffering and diseased men and women his marvelous, life giving prescription, with the conviction and positive knowledge that it had peculiar virtues and ample powers to cure. Thousands of the strongest testimonials from the best known and most reliable men and women of our country fully sustain the claims made by Dr. Phelps regarding his incompar? able Paine's Celery Compound. One of the most convincing proofs furnished, comes recently from a gentleman widei'y known in the capital city of the Dominion of Canada. We refer to Mr. Alfred Brown, 91 O'Connor St., Ottawa, Ont. Mr. Brown's letter fully demonstrates the fact that the greatest sufferer may cast off his or her burden of disease and become well, strong, and happy. It proves, too, that the great medicine main? tains more fully than ever before its unrivaled place in the estimation of people of wealth and social standing as well as with the masse;. Mr. Brown says: "I acknowledge with thankfulness and pleasure the fact that I have been cured of a I very painful illness of eight years' standing by use of Paine's Celery Compound. I had, during the years of my illness, tried almost all the' advertised medicines without deriving any good results. I was also treated by several of the best doctors of this city, hoping to find that one of them, at least, would understand my case. "; M I was getting worse, and was told I was incurable. I was indeed in a critical condi? tion. I could not go from the house alone, as I was liable to sudden collapse. I tried hospital treatment, but no relief or good results came to me. I could not sleep; anything that I ate increased my agonies; I was extremely weak, restless, tired, and despondent; was obliged to walk about with my hands pressed firmly into my left side to ease my pains; my feet and hands were cold continually; had inclination to vomit, had profuse, cold sweats, quick breathing, and would be racked with pain for hours at a time. "After the regular use of Paine's Celery Compound for a time, I am now in the best of health, have good appetite, and can use any kind of food. Thank God I am my old self once more, all through the use of Paine's Celery Compound." FOB TWENTY YE ABS DIAMOND DYES have been the standard home dyes.
