There are two can- idates for the succession, and they represent widely arket, too, showed interesting symp- | different ideas of government. One of them, Balfour, Salisbury’s nephew, and an exponent of the traditions of Toryism, is anything rather than a jingo imperial- | ist. Should he attain the power to shape the policies of the Ministry, Great Britain will remain compara- tively indifferent to what is known as “imperialism” g purposes has been somewhat cur- | and will devote her energies to the carrying out of an elabroate programme of domestic reforms. On the , from Europe, and | cther hand, Chamberlain, who was once a reformer of | e kind, has become just as aggressively an imperialist, and in cffice would not hesitate to sac. rifice domestic policies to far-reaching schemes of empire. Of the two statesmen Chamberlain has unquestion- the larger political ideas and the greater personal force. Holding the comparatively subordinate posi- ports continue to take out large quantities of | tion in the Cabinet of Secretary of State for the Colo- | nies, he has managed to make himself more potent even than the Premier, and is to-day more talked of otherwise have been dull.

There has not been the election results in a continuation of the present financial conditions there is no reason why trade should not be good for another similar period. A good feature to the situation is the lack of spec- ulation all over the country. All sections send in the same report. Whatever business is being done is to ill actual wants, and is therefore safe and legitimate. Under this condition it is almost impossible to pro- duce any serious financial or commercial disturbance. In 2!l of Bryan’s mad volubility there is some sign 1 season in this city for nearly four years, and if | by the military operations in China and the | mother country and the colonies that, if carried out [ with vigor, may lead to consequences of great impor- tance to the whole world. It has even been said that despite his training in the Birmingham school he is ready to surrender Britain’s free-trade policy for the | sake of arranging a commercial and industrial union | with Canada and Australia. In the political campaign now going on in Canada the Conservatives attack the Laurier Ministry for granting a preferential tariff to British goods without exacting a similar advantage for Canadian goods in the British market. - They argue that if Canada demand such advantages the British Parliament will grant them; and as a proof of the accuracy of the contention they quote from a recent utterance of the Imperial ©of reason, for it is to be noted he never recalls any | Trade Defence League the declaration: of those wonderful predictions he made in 1806, “If the incoming Government fails to pass meas- Republicans who de- | | than any other man in British politics.

To him the federafion of the British empire has become what a united South Africa is to Cecil Rhodes; and if the colonies demand tariff preferences as a price for similar favors we may see the strange event of the establishment of a protective British em- pire brought about by a Birmingham manufacturer. There is but one “Joe” Chamberlain, and it will be | remembered Disraeli predicted he would die a duke. e . THE INTERESTS OF LABOR. | RECENT dispatch announced that the manu- | f\ facturers controlling the mills in Charlotte, North Carolina, had given notice to their em- ployes that they must ecither withdraw from labor unions or from the mills. The workers were given until to-day to make up their minds. Unless, there- fore, some respite or concession be granted the work- ers in the cotton mills of that city will wake this morning to the hard alternative of deserting their unions or losing their jobs. |+ That is an example of the way the Bryanites of the | South deal with labor. They have begun the upbuild- | | irg of a great manufacturing industry in that section | of the country, and their cotton mills are becoming cess of the mills is Jargely' based upon cheap labor, | and the Southern manufacturers have evidently deter- | mined to keep it cheap. What has been done at | Charlotte will be done elsewhere, if the plan prove successful. | We have thus from North Carolina in rapid suc- | cession two illustrations of the temper and disposition | of Southern Democracy. First they deprive the negro “.of the right to vote and second they deprive the work- | ingman of the right to organize labor unions. The | aim is clearly to produce the political suppress one race and the industrial servitude of the workers | of both races. The men who are doing these things are support- ing Bryan in this campaign. They, with the Demo- crats of the other Southern States, constitute the most | potent of the many forces that are back of Bryan, and should he be elected they will control his admin- istration. Thus to Crokerism in New York, Altgeld- ism in Illinois and the general viciousness of Bryan- ism everywhere we have this determination of the new manufacturers of the South to prevent the estab- lishment in the milling towns of that section of the Union any of those organizations that have done and doing so mich for the benefit of labor. cery workingman has many strong reasons why he should vote for the party of prosperity, but organ- ized labor has a stronger reason than any other ele- ment in the country, for in the stronghold of Bryan- ism there is now going on a fight waged by Bryan's supporters for the absolute extermination of labor unions. | FHE CULTIVQ"T_IONWOF RUBBER. | | D Department Agriculture has begun ex- i periments and inquiries in the direction of pro | moting the cultivation of india-rubber trees and plants in the tropic islands now in our possession. It | appears that the British. have long been propagating | the cultivation of rubber in several of their colonies, | and the results have been such as to encourage similar | undertakings on the part of our Government. The value of the industry may be estimated from the fact that mote than $100,000,000 worth of india- rebber has been imported into the United States dur- ing the past four years, and more than $60,000,000 worth in the last two years. A decade ago the annual importations of rubber amounted to about $15,000,000: now they exceed $30,000,000 and are steadily in- creasing. The cause of the rapid increase in the importations is that manufacturers are continuously extending the aprlication of rubber to new lines of industry. A few years ago rubber goods were of a comparatively few kinds, now almost everything can be made out of rubber; and many articles are much more serviceable when of that material than when made of anything else. Consequently the demand for rubber | faster than unassisted nature could of grows human intelligence and energy have been set to work to increase the output. There has been received by the Treasury Bureau | of Statistics a publication detailing the efforts made for the cultivation of the trees and plants in the British lcoloni s and particularly in those of Africa. The }pub]icatifin is of interest to us because it tends to confirm the expectation that we may yet produce 1 rubber in our own islands instead of having to import it from foreign countries. Southern Mexico and | Central America are natural producers of india-rubber | in considerable quantities, and in our islands cultiva- | tior will doubtless be profitable. | According to the reports, india-rubber is not, as is | generally supposed, the product of a single tree, bur on the contrary is produced from a variety of trees and plants. Some of these flourish anly in a moist soil and atmosphere, while others thrive on stony soil, pro- | vided they receive ample though intermittent rain- fall; but in all cases a tropical or subtropical cli- mate is requisite. Most of the india-rubber of South | and Central America and India is from trees, but in | the islands of the Indian archipelago the supply of rubber is chiefly from a gigantic creeper, which in | five years' growth attains a length of 200 feet andi from twenty to thirty inches in circumference, and | which yields annually from fifty to sixty pounds of caoutchouc. Java, Sumatra, Penang, Singapore and French Indo-China are already large producers of crude india-rubber, or caoutchouc, and its production ini the West Indies has been sufficient to indicate the | entire practicability of its being made an important | industry in Cuba and Porto Rico, as well as in the ! Hzwaiian, Philippine and Samoan Islands. The Sultan of Sulu is becoming gay enough to suggest a fear that he may lose that pension with which Uncle Sam in his generosity has endowed him. The Sultan wants a bonus for every one of his sol- diers who is killed by American troops. s A patient who was removed from the Receiving Hospital the other day was declared out of danger. The record of the Receiving Hospital makes it very casy to trace cause and effect in the incident. BTNl William Jennings Bryan is candid if he is not tact- ful. He told an .audience the other day that if the people did not pay the expenses of his campaign- ing the corporations would.

The girls are going at the rate of two a week—not at all a bad commencement for the young season. I am so glad the McNutt-Potter betrothal is out. I vow I could not have held my tongue another week, in spite of the fact that I, like a half-dozen others, had crossed my heart and hoped to die. I always like to give a girl's mother a chance to tell the news, wich a chicken salad and weak punch ac- companiment, but I confess it is beyond me to hold my tongue, or my pen, When I have such a fascinating bit of news as an engagement “up my sleeve.” This par- donable weakness of mine is the sole ex- cuse I offer when I tell you that Lieuten- ant Potter won't be able to get his leave of absence, and that Mamie and her | mother and her sister Ruth will sail | shortly for Manila, where the wedding will take place. . . This keeplng secret engagements of sev- eral months’ standing must be a terrible bore. I used to feel so sorry for Colonel Preston every time he used to deny Isa- belle's engagement to Len D. Owens, and | that thing went on for four months. I wager Isabelle's handsome papa s glad the secret Is out. I belleve the wed- ding, which takes place at the Preston | place, “Portola Hall,” is to be a “violet” | affair. Isabelle is already taking hold of the details, and the Paris model she has selected for her bridesmalds’ hats is a thing of beauty and a perishable joy. The hats are to be of violet chiffon, flaring oft | the face, and the crowns composed en- tirely of violets. The very sizht of one | of those hats is enough to inspire every | girl with a wild desire to lead the way | when Isabelle marches to a Mendelssohn } accompaniment. .

They were all bullt at the Weser yard, Bremcn, between 1876 and 1880, and have long since become ob- =olete; in fact, they were never of much | use, as they drew more water than in- tended. i S The British torpedo-boat destroyer Bull- | finch, which has been undergoing repairs since July 21 of last year, when an acci- | | dent occurred to her machinery result- | ing in the lecss of eleven llves, had her | trials last month. The vessel developed | 6022 horsepower and 29.46 knots speed duc- | {ing a three hours’ continuous run, falling | ghort .54 knots of her contract speed. £ W e Experiments have been made at Shoe- buryness with 9.2-inch lyddite shells, fired at a target 1500 yards distant from the gun. When the shell burst frag- ments of it were hurled back 800 yards toward the gun, and other pieces were scattered over a distance of a mile, or 1760 yards. The detonation was like a clap of thunder, and persons a mile away felt a heavy blow across thefr faces | from the concussion. While lyddite may burst against armor without dolng seri- ous harm, a well-planted shell of this kind would annihilate a vessel without | considerable armor protection. The 9.2- inch lyddite shell will be introduced in the naval service, with a further proba- | bility of extending it to the 12-inch guns. o iw'e Some very Interesting and eminently practical trials took place some weeks ago, in which eleven of the principal ships in the British squadron in the Mediter- ranean took part. The object of these trials is of such practical value as to suggest that the plan was originated by Rear Admiral Beresford. Similar trials in our navy would give a more correct idea of the actual speed and coal con- sumption of warships than the four hours’ trial under forced draught now conveys. In the following table are giv- en the original trial data of eight hours’ duration under full power (not forced draught), which, with the figures under four-fifths power. taken from the London Engineer, furnish data of com- parisons that are very rare: Full Power. ‘ 4-5 Power. | chan | Carlisle in giving to gauze made up over beige colored taffe- | tas.

Long before I had the pleasure of gazing on his martial form I asked my father what manner of man he was. He answered: “‘He is tall. handsome, square- built. He has a head two storiés and a half high.” And so it was. In 1868 T was a student at the Kentucky University at Lexington, when he returned from his European exile. With enrap- tured ear I heard him return thanks to his neighbors and friends for the cordial- ity of their reception.
