C, March 16th. No man has received mora siuceie and earnest congratulations on his recent speech on the race problem in the Henat' ot the United States than has the Hon. Benjamin Hiloy Till man, of Sriuth Carolina. lie did just what he said he was going to do in that speech, viz: He sin prised his friends and disappoint ed his enemies, not only by his mod oration, but by the depth and states manlike utterance he delivered on that occasion. It was a speech worthy of anv statesman of tbv pros ant day, and the Democratic party will do well to make it one ot the first and foremost campaign docu mcnts that it seuds out to the thonghtful readers of the country, Mr. Tillman has grown wonderfully in the past 'wo years in the estima tion of his colleagues of the senate, His greatest strength, however, lies in the knowledge by everybody who knows him, of his absolute anl un swerving honesty. borne people pretend to attach con siderable importance to the fact that on the reorganization of the Senate, which occurred oil the assembling of this extra session, that the Democrats elected Senator Gorman, of Mary land to the position just vacated by Senator Jones, of Arkansas, the chairmanship of the Demociatio cau cus, which position carries with it the leadership of the minority on the floor of the Seuate. Some say that it is a surrender of the new element of the Democratic party to the reoi ganizer element or old line gold wing of the party. Some say it is a dis tinct boom for Gorman for the Dem ocratic nomination for the Presiden- cv. it is neither. Ihc voting ele- . mout of tho party still controls the I steering committee of the Senate, which maps out the programme of Democratic procedure and policy to be pursued. This element will work in harmony with Mr. Gorman and his friends, but will not he dictated to by bim or his gold bug friends. His election was a courtesy extended to him as the man who had previous ly held the position with signal abil ity and a compliment to and recog nition of that ability. He is essen tially an organizer and. an adroit tac titian. He is supposed to be the on ly man on the Democratic side who can hold down that oleaginous and smooth gentleman from Rhode Is land, senator Aldricb, the ltepubli- Ciiu leader on the Senate Hour. Everybody here is talking of the latest great cartoon by Homer Dav- Mipoit, which appeared in last bun lay's New York American, it dealt with the changes and taV legod improvements in the White House which were made last summer at the enormos cost of $000,000, and which, in the opinion of many, have forever spoilt the appearance of the historic old building both inside mid out. Mr. Davenport's cartoon show ed the new statu dining room. Ar ranged around the walls, instead of the pictures of former Presidents and their ladies, aro a number of speci mens of the taxidermist's art in the shape of bear heads, elk heads, moose heads, alligator heads, etc., and the only occupants of the room are a number of the human species who hail originally from darkest Africa. Down in the corner of the page is another picture showing the portraits of Washington and Lincoln, and un derneath the words: "A few pieces of rubbish in the basement. In another corner of the page is the pic ture of the present occupant of the White House dressed ill his rough rider suit rf khaki, and is about the only picture of a President of the United states that greets the eye ot the visitor to the White House nowa days, unless he makes diligent starch in the basement or the out-of-the-way places in the building, ibis car toon is true to nature and speaks in thunder tones of the colossal erotism of the man who is now the President of the United States. The fact that the President had removed ail the portraits from the state dining room aud replaced them with the stuffed heads ot animals that nan at some time fallen victims to bis nllo, was not generally known even here, until this picture of Mr. Davenport came out in Mr. Hearst's New York paper and some people are actually so shock ed us to make unkind remarks about it. But, even this innovation, which was superinduced by a bad case of megalocephalititis, is as nothing com pared to some ot the extraordinary things indulged in by this peculiar and bizarre gentleman. If the good people of the West, where he is said to be so immensely popular, could know -the real Roosevelt as he is known bv the ncwsDaoer correspond ents of Washington, they would rap- dly rearrange their opinions concern ing him. Senator Sanguilly. of the Cuban Senate, has let the cat out of the bag and given the whole Cuban reciproc ity snap dead away, la a speech in the Cuban Senate the other day It said that reciprocity with this oonii try was not necessary for the well being of the Cuban Republic, and that it would not enhance the pros perity of the Island Republic one whit. He said further, that the re ductions in the tariff were not suffi cient to help the Cubans and were designed solely in the interest of the great trusts of this country, and es pecially the sugar trust This cor roborates what the Democrats cnarg ed in their campaig. book last fall, and indorses the action of the demo crats in the Brat session of the Fifty seventh Congress in knocking off the differential on refined sugar in the interest of the consumers of this country, which the same was prompt ly restored, by a Republican Senate. This announcement on the part of a patriotic Cuban will strengthen the hands of the Democrats in the Senate at this special session in their de. termination to fight tho Cuban recip rocity treaty, not alone on the ground m lie constitutionality, mil aiso on the ground that it is sorely in the m terest of the trusts. It is tie) gener al consensus of opinion here that the cuiian reciprocity treaty is doomed. Just before the 57th Congress ad journed, its ruiiuiiim was sung by senators JMkius and Warren, both ardent Republicans, in a minor key, which differed vastly iu tone and quality from the "public paeans of congratulations' that usually ac- companies tnis interesting function. No greater indictment could be re turned against the Republican party than these two Senators presented to th! people of the United States against their own party. The above named senators described two great sins the Republican Congress had committed, first, deceiving the peo ple by not carrying out the promi ses made in the national platform of statehood for the territories; second, gross extravagance with the people's money. On page 3243 of tho Con gressional Record of March 3d is re ported the speech of Senator Elkins, of West Virginia, a leador of the Re publican party, who, after speaking of the important bills that had failed of pannage, said: "Tho Republican party is responsible for this condition of affairs which is so unfortunate for it and the country at this time. Earlv in the beginning of this ses sion a majority of the Republican members of the Senate determined to defeat the statehood bill, and to this end adopted a programme which in volved, nrst, a violation or the pledges made in the platform of their party in three national con- ventions, binding the parties to ad' mit tht territories of Oklahoma, (New Mexico aud Arizona as states into the Union. This was a great mistake and a great wrong. One that will come to plague us here after. A political party can no more afford to violate its promises and pledges than an individual. senator Klkins then describes "tne wicked filibuster carried on for four teen weeks against the majority of the Senate and then further said: It was this filibuster that has led to the death of the imfortaut bills I have mentioned, and the Republi cans cannot avoid this responsibility. It rests upon them and no eue else. Un the same day and reported in the same Congressional Record, on age 3251, Senator Warren, of Yyoming, makes the other indict ment, of wasting the money of the people, and cites a large number of instances of extravagant appropria tions, including the expenditure of over $1300,000 on the White House, and further said, "of over $65,000 for that diminutive wigwam that de faces the western side of the White House grounds, that little wigwam or tepee, whose front yard is mostly a coal hole and whose best room is the back yard." This is especially severe, considering that President Koosevolt had been given oy con gress the exclusive charge of all these White House improvements, and is responsible for the bills, which are said to amount to ten timts what the real cost should have been. Verily, out of thine own mouth halt thou be judged. C HAUL Ho A. HiUWAKUa. Bombay Items. (Received too late for last week.) Rev Hales preached an excellent sermon at Siloam Sunday.

An incident occurred on the train a few afternoons ago, that shows man's humanity to the weak and des titute, and that there is a bond of sympathy that unites all hearts in tho presence of sorrow. When the train stopped at Grifton a sad faced woman, accompanied by six small children, got on the car aud occupied the seats nearest the dooi. This of itself might be considered nothing unusual to be seen by persons accus tomed to much traveling. But there was another, a young lady, who get on the trnin at the same station and took a seat farther down the car that was partly occupied by another pas senger, too many people being on the car for each to occupy a whole seat. Soon after the train pulled out the person on tho seat with the young ladv made some inquiring remark about the lady and the children up in front. She replied that it was one of the saddest cases she had ever known and upon being questioned further told a pitiful story that touched the hearts of all who sat near enough to overhear the conver sation. It was this: Earlier in the year a man with his wife and six children had moved from near Winston and ceme to the eastern section of the State. He had rented a farm near Gnf ton and settled there to try and make a support for himself and fam ily. Some days ago while tho man was out doing his work he was sud denly seized with some trouble, fell over into a ditch and was drowned. In the short timo they had been there they had become acquainted with very few people, so that the mother and children had been left compara tively among strangers and almost penniless. Kind people in the neigh borhood had buried the husband aud father and made up something for the mother, and now she and the children hud staited as best they could to make their way back to rel tives at her old home. Sitting on the opposite side of the aisle from the young woman as she softly told this sad story, was a drummer a man who was not only large in statue but also had a great heart within his breast. He had rested his head on his hand mid lis tened quietly. When she had finish ed he put his hand into his pocket and taking it out held it toward a companion on the seat with mm. The hand was not empty, and - hi companion, quickly taking the hint, added liberally to what it contained. The lago drummer then arose from his seat, and walking through the car held out his hand to first one and then another, never speaking a word. Nor was a word necessary, for in uot an instance did the hand fail to meet a generous response. He then walk ed up to the front of tho car where sat the sad-faced mother with her back to the others', knowing nothing of what had been said or done, where he gently laid the offering in her lap and returned in silence to his seat. The act was done so gently, so mol estlv, as to make it beautiful and touching. When the Reflector wasj told of this incident no names wercll earned, and possibly it is best so, but the Recording Angsl m iteaven Knows the names, and doubtless opposite that of the drummer ane" those who joined him in the offering is written: "Iuasmuch as ve did it unto the least of these, ye did it unto Me."

The report gives two-year periods from Jiiniiary 1st, 1SSH," to 1903 making seven such periods. In the first there were 90 murder trials, in the second 154, in the third 179, in the fourth 186, in the fifth 188, in the sixth 189, in the seventh 204. Trials for man slaughter have increased from 15 for the first period to 60 for the last, and trials for murder in the second degree which during the first two years were only 49 are now 84 Burglary has increased from 54 to 80, aud ussault from 25 to 37 Arson is the crime in which ther less average increase. During the first period there were only 14 trialB, for this crime. During one period 47 trials were hnd, but now it is dropped back to 13. The highwater mark for all crimes was reached dur ing the years 1897 and 1898, when there were 18,541 tried, as against 10,437 during 1889-1890. The Scab of the Irish Potato. The potato scab is lfadily recogni zed by all growers of the potato by the scabby depression in tne normal ly smooth skin of the potato. These senbs may be single or scattered, but are often so abundant as to iuvolve uearlv the whole surface of tho pota. to. To the consumer they are of considerable importance, sinco they necessitate very thick paring, and a consequent loss of the edible portion of the potato. To the farmer who wishes to sell Ins potatoes, tne loss n even greater, as the scabby tubers command in the market a much less price than clean, healthy potatoes. The scab is due to itingus wmcn rows iu the skin of the putnto. 'his fungus on old fields, which have been u-ed repeatedly for pota toes, may be thoroughly" distributed through tiie soil. In ground which has not been used tor potatoes so much, the scab causing fungus may he absent. If, however, scabby pota toes be planted in a clean soil the scab will be carried to this soil by such planting, anil a scabbv crop will irsiilt. One method then by which the scab guins access to the field is through the sted. This means of entrance is uuder the coutrol of the farmer and ninv be readily cut off soaking the seed in a chemical which will kill the fungus adhearingto the surface of the potato, and yet not in ure tho potato itselt. Mien aciiein- iral is foimaliu. To treat vour Seed potatoes mix ight ounces of formalin with fifteen gallons of water und soak the seed in this solution for two hours. Then cut and plant them. Tho solution may be used repeatedly, nut it is wen after it has been used two or three times to either lengthen the time ot immersion or add a little more for malin to make up for any loss iu strength. Formalin is a nannies nun -poisonous substance (.wnen useu externally) which urn be used with safety any w here. 1 1 can be purchas ed at any drug stroe for about 80 cU. per pint. In many cases the value of the crop has been doubled by this treat ment, and yet the treatment useu, including both material and labor, costs only a few cents per acre. It you are trouuien wiiu me acao lo not neglect treatment. F. L. Stkvenk, Biologist.

But Much to Gain, Perhaps An Example That Illustrates. Honesty, according to the trite aud rather cynical proverb, is the best policy. H now appears thnt manners also may be regulated on the principle that it is good policy to be polite. In 1901 a street cur con ductor iu Buffalo hud among his passengers a woman wiio was unable to pay her fare. Somebody had stolen her purse or she had lost her pocketbook and she was penniless. This conductor was not an opulent person, and, as a rule, he whs not in the habit of treating iuiiiccunious (-passengers with exceptional consid eration. But in this particular case the woman's cmbairassment was so palpable and her distress so great that he considerately pid her fare! out of his own slender means. He expected no reward, of course, except the consciousness that ho had be friended an unfortunate female. Now, mark the sequel. The con ductor had forgotten all about this incident until a few days ago when he received an anonymous letter from Philadelphia inclosing a thousand- dollar bill. The writer of the epistle in question and the giver of this generous and most acceptable gift re minded the conductor ot his courw-sv on a past occasion, thanked him for HIS Kindness ami usueu mm ui aicrji the money which she inclosed as an expression of her gratitude as well ns a recognition of his chivalrous courtesy. This is it very pretty story and u points a moral. If the Buffalo con ductor hud been a brutal sort of skeptic und blistered the unfor tunate woman with language expres sive of scornful incredulity when she told of her sud plight, he would have saved live cents, but he would have lost $1,100. There is no evi dence to show that he is a mind reader and th it his know ledge of occult art enables him to tell at a glance whether a passenger in finan cial straits has the bump of grati tude largely developed and the means to display this gratitude in concrete form. Perhaps he is one of those impressionable iiersons who cannot resist a woman in tears and who would part with his last dime rather than prolong a paintul scene. Whatever his motive may have been, he seems to have acted not only villi admirable chivalry, but also with Dimnenduble discretion. His nickel has returned to him increased twenty thousandfold, lie has demonstrated that in the street railway business, as in other pursuits, politeness is the beat policy ;and tliut it sometimes uiys handsomely to be consiueraie. 'o'ssibly it may be many years before another street cur conductor receives u thousand-dollar bill from a grate ful passenger. Women rich enough to rewaril chivalrous street railway employes in such generous fashion are not often found in a penniless condition on street cars. Friendless and tearful women who cannot pay fare may not always be angels in fact some of them may be unworthy creatures not unwilling to travel at the expense of tender-hearted and sympathetic railway employes. In view ot Hie JWllato limn s experience, however, it is plain that conductors cannot be too careful in the future how they refuse to aid beauty m d's tress. They inav, if they are not liscreet as well us gallant, eject al most any day a woman who, if con siderately treated, would semi a thousand-dollar bill ii the man who believed her "hard luck"' story and paid her fare.
