FRICAY, DECEMBER "10, 1897.
The yellow If ever is a thing" of the past
in "the south, "but yellow journalism Isn't
even quarantined in 'New York.
How different the painstaking poet,
Wordsworth, was from the paingiving Edi
i tor Dana is shown by this from the jour
nal of Dorthy 'Wordsworth: "William has
come back tired; he spent the entire day
in thinking of an adjective for the cuck
oo." Ex-Governor Northen says that ne is in
favor of four reforms in the state first,
textile training schools; second, any pol
icy whien will each scientific IParming;
third, igood roads, and fourth, a reforma
tory prison for the detention of youthful
criminals. i ,
With a pack of hungry republican wolves
licking their chops at thoughts of the civil
serivce law, it is a question if it will even
be allowed to foe made into pot -pie by the
present congress. Grosvenor's dig at it on
Tuesday was only the beginning of -the
attack on the amiable "merit" system, that
when tihe democrats were in power the re
publicans regarded "with sucfe complaisant
satisfaction.
The portion of the president's message
that was looked forward to with the most
Interest was that relating to the currency:
His recommendation, is hat a bill be
passed providing that grecmbacks shall not
be xe-issued. aTter redempttm in gold, exT
cept m exchange for gold. This, ihe de
clares wii have the effect of preventing
raids on the gold reserve through wihat has
come" to be known as the "endless
cnain." This recommendation is a sa?e one
as it will never pass the present congress.
It would be generally :construed as an ef
fort on the part of the government! to con
tract the currency. It order to meet this
objection, fhe president recommends fur-
ther that national
banks ibe authorized
to issue notes up to the face value of
their bonds deposited with the government.
A and- that the tax on national bank issues
be reduced to one-half d on per cent.
per annum, - and that (national bank notes
' be resfiricted to the denomination of $10
and upwards, and that national banks of
" the minimum capital of $25,000 be author
- ized, this latter in order -'that the agri"
cultural sections of the country may have
. & local currency. As, national banks are
by law, forbidden to lend money on the

taohed to it. The Richmond Times (gold
advocate) sums up the opinion of this fea
ture of the message as follows: "We can

. , of the president's, It will be the old storij
v over again. These banks' cannot possibly
supply the Jocal currency; that the farmers

that in ' order ' to " prevent; 'any oontrxctlon

fully and effectively hav; covered the
whole "subject in a paragraph." V;; '
i In .Treasurer 'Gage's report 5 containing
his frecommendatlons'as to fthe'reform, of
the currency," . of which Mr. McKinley's
recommendations are in the lin of ap
pr'oval in briet ; the secretary proposes the
establishment by a gol-d loan and. the set
ting over of funds in the treasuiry of funds
in gold with which to retire the- United
"States notes outstanding, the provision be
ittg made that they shall not be aigain paid
out except1 If or , gold, v- Then . to take ihe
place of the circulating medium thus with
drawn the secretary would have, there
striction on the national bank issues very
much modified so that the motes would re
spond to itlhe local 'demand for currency.
The tax on circulation is to be deduced to
one-balf.of one per ce-ntv and noe issues
protected by bonds to be made to the a
mount of 50 per "cent, of the capital, and
in 'addition issues, of 25 per cenit. of the
capital to be, allowed, the government
guaranteeing the entire circulation and
protecting itself by a tax of . 2 per. cent, on
unsecured circulation. This plan com--mits
the government absolutely to the
pplicy of the gold standard. The loans are
to be explicitly payable in that metal, and
the policy of this government to (maintain
the parity between the two metals- is eh-
tirely bverlooked. -1
TOPICS OF TODAY.
It is estimated that . only : some 39,000
white votes were cast last year for the
rad-pop combine. If -this is so, and we do
not know that it is, then 115,000 were ne
gores of the 154,000. This shows how the
whites rely upon the black allies and tlhey
are used to bring the chestnuts out of
the fire for the delectation, and refresh
ment of the white bosses. Wilmington (Mes
senger.
The new constitution of South Carolina
contains a provision making counties liable
to pay $2,000 damages to the dependants
or "legal representatives" of the victim of
a lynching. No case has yet been tried
under the law enacted to carry this provis
ion into effect, but the Charleston "News
and Courier learns that the efficacy of this
taw "will soon, be tested' in Orangeburg
county,, an attorney having been employed
to sue the county, for such damages on ac
count of the lynching at Stilton, a year
ago, of the negro Brown, who was banged
and shot to deaTh for alleged barn burn
ing. '
POINTS FOR GIRLS.
Individual butter-plates, continue in
fashion; the reason. ior, their existence
is a good one, for -who would care to
put butter on a hotplate? Oiur English
cousins eagerly buy them when they
are ill this country, counting them as a
Wise invention.
The Four Marys (were maids of honor
to Mary, Queen of Scots; they were
Mary Beaton, Mary Seaton, Mary Liv
ingston and Mary Fleming. Mary Car
michael's name, though mentioned in
the ballad, was not one of the original
four; it is said that she Teplaced Mary
Fleming.
The giving of presents to a girl at
the time of her graduation, at her be
trothal and at her marriage rind eed, at
every important event- in her life, is
getting to be an absolute tax on all
relatives and friends. However, it is
not at all necessary for one to buy, for
mere form's sake, gifts that one cannot
afford. .
A good, talker is born not made. By
reading good books, by keeping one's
self well informed as to the interesting
events of the day, one may become a"
good conversationalist. Still, the most
faxscinating talkers are by no means
those who know the most, but, instead,
those who have the greatest ameunt
of tact, are mos,t sympathetic; versatile,
and, most important of all, have that
wonderful something 'that, lacking a
better name, we call magnetism. La
