BY WILLIAM U. scRNABD. WILMLNUTU.R. A. c. StJlTOAY MORXISG, JANUARY 20 BRITAIN'S TWO DREADED RIVALS. lw tiA manufacturers in Great Britain but British statesmen have begun to realize the formid ablenesa of the competition British 1 . A. tradesmen bare to encounter, duc they realize also the stupendous t ask they hare before them to meet this competition and survive it They have had to encounter Ameri can aggressiveness both in their colonies and even in their own 'home market where they once had undisputed away, and so have, they in their own home market felt the effects of German competition. That they have begun to realize what this double competition means is shown by the following extract frbm a speech by Lord Rosebery at a' ban quet of the Wolverhampton Cham ber of Commerce last Wednesday evening. Responding to a toast he discussed "the great commercial warfare being waged against Eng land" in which he said: "The chief rivals to be feared are America and Germany. "The Americans, with their vast and almost incalculable resources, their acuteness and enterprise, and their huge population, which will probably be 100,000.000 in twenty years, together with the plan they have adopted for putting accumulated wealth into great co-operative syndicates or trusts for the purpose of carrying oa this great commercial warfare, are perhaps the most formidable. "Oa the other hand, the Germans, withfheir calculating and conquering spirit and the energy with which they Beii and use the best and most eco nomical methods, are but little less redoubtable than the Americans. "The Americans, scarcely satisfied with gigantic individual fortune, use those by combination to make of capi tal a power which, wielded by one or two minds, is almost irresistible; and, if this power is concentrated against Great Britain in trade warfare, it will be a danger we cannot afford to disre gard. "A trust of many millions might compete withany trade in Eagland, underselling all her products at a con siderable loss. This is a possible out come of the immediate future. "A curious feature, if I may say so without impertinence, seems to be that in combination with the faculty for the acquisition of money there is a com piete contempt for money except as a means of making more and for power. These millionaires of whom we hear so much are often men of simple lives, whose simple rule is to make enormous accumulations in order to acquire more power. f "England, in order to withstand in ternational -competition, must thor oughly educate her youth; and I would suggest sending batches of young men abroad to learn the best our rivals know." This was not a very pleasant kind of talk for the gentlemen who had asaembled on this festive occasion, bat it was not the first time they had heard stories of that kind for they have talked this matter over amongst themselves in their meet ings and have read discourses upon it for several years in their leading papers, for this has been one of the interesting topics of discussion in England for the past two or three years. They have realized the situ ation and discussed the ways and means for meeting if they could not prevent this American competition, one of the ways suggested being some sort of protective legislation to crowd the American out of Eng lish markets, as the Englishman is crowded ont of the American mar ket. But this was such a radical de parture from England's free trade policy and so manifestly intended to benefit English traders at the ex pense of the people of the colonies and the masses of home consumers that it didn't take well. The aver age Englishmen, whether at home or in a colony wants to buy where he can get the most for his money. Lord RoBebery pays high tribute, whether so intended or not, to American genius, energy, dash, method and organizing capacity, which he has doubtless studied, and shows he appreciates. But he does not seem to realize that it is an old, failing giant, struggling with a young, robuBt one, which is gaining more strength every day. He has learned something from the Japa nese, the moat sagacious people of the East, and the most marvellous of them all, which thirty years ago did what Lord Roaebery advises England to do now, that is sent her bright yonng men to other countries noted for their superior methods of doing things to study these methods, to learn all they conld about them, and go back to Japan to become the teachers of their countrymen. This is one of the secrets of Japan's won derful progress. She began at the bottom and with an admirable reso lution and perseverance worked up to the top. England may do this now, as Lord Rosebery suggests, but if she did she wonld not meet with the same success the Japanese have, for Englishmen have not the imita tive talent of the Japanese, nor are they as quick or patient to learn. The Englishman in this particular bears more resemblance to the Chi naman he thinks he knows it all. The Englishman has one loom ing, redeeming trait and that is stick, a bulldog tenacity for hold ing on when he gets a grip and this it is that will stand him in stead when the commercial battle wages in earnest. But that will not save him. The relegating of England toaBeoondand even a third place among the commercial nations is one of the inevitables, and with all i ker enfcrCT and all her perseveranoe and all her wealth she cannot pre vent it, because she cannot over come nature and the irresistible. Her people have neither the dash uor the energy of the American, one of her rivals, nor the practical, per severing thorough method of the German, her other : rival, while she has still two more rivals in the East, the Japanese and the Russian in China, neither of which is alluded to by Lord Rosebery. With in half a century England's fuel supplies for manufacturing purposes will be about exhausted and before that time she will have ceased to be a great cotton manufacturer, as the industry will be taken from her by this country. To-day she is im porting coal, iron and steel and ten years hence she will be importing more. Without cheap coal and iron, two of the things which have helped to make her the commercial power she is, how can she compete with nations which have both of these in abundance? She can't do it and will therefore be compelled to sur render, although she may struggle manfully and obstinately, but she will have to surrender all the same, for. she will be, is already out classed and must succumb to the inevitable. ' PLASHING TO HOLD CUBA. If the utterances of the leading Republican papers which stand in with the McKinley administration, and the reports that come from Washington from time to time be any indication, and in our opinion they are, the intention is to hold on to Cuba if there can be found a half way plausible pretence for it, not withstanding the fact that when war was declared against Spain, it was at the same time unanimously de clared by Congress that "The people of the island of Cnba are, and of right ought to be, free and indepen dent." It further solemnly dis claimed "any intention to exercise sovereignity, jurisdiction or control over the island except for the pacifi cation thereof," which accomplished the "government of the island would be left in control of its people." The island has been pacified for two years and is still occupied by U. S. troops and governed by men sent out from Washington, and there is intimation as to when this will ceaer and the government of the islapdoe turned over to its people. We have undertaken the task of building a "stable" government for them, which means a government which com ports which the American rather than the Cuban idea. The Republican convention which met at Philadelphia and re-nominated McKinley reaffirmed the resolution to which we reff?i aad pledged the Republican party to carry it out in good faith, ! when it had already been broken in the spirit and in the letter. The Chicago Times-Herald, a Republican paper, quotes "one of Mr. McKinley's trusted advisers" as saying: . "It (universal suffrage) is not to be thought of for one moment It would be miserable betrayal of all the peo ple of substance and intelligence in the island. These people look to the United States to see to it that a stable government is established to take the place of our own regime. They have faith that we will not abandon them to the miseries of rule by the ignorant masses." The new constitution of Cuba provides for universal suffrage, but it might be asked if "the people of Cuba are, and of right ought to be, free and independent," what busi ness is it of ours whether they adopt universal or restricted suffrage? Have we a right in the face of our own solemn pledges to dictate to a free and independent" people what kind of suffrage they shall have? But doesn't it border somewhat on self-stultification when Republican statesmen whose party foisted (uni versal suffrage on the South, ana did it practically at the point Ff the bayonet, too, declaim agaiist re stricted suffrage in the Soutw while they protest against universal suf frage in Cnba, and make that a pre tence for violating their solemn pledges, and refusing to recognize the independence of Cuba? But the observance of pledges, or a decent regard for consistency are two things that never stand in the way of the schemes of Republican statesmen. Joseph Leon Gobeille, who is president of a big Pattern company of Cleveland, Ohio, is also an ardent church man. ' His ' church has been divided for some time on the reten tion of the 'pastor. Gobeille's father sided with the faction op posed to the one his son belonged to, and thereupon young Gobeille showed what a pattern Christian and son he was by discharging his father who for eighteen years had worked in the Pattern shop.

When Governor Stanley, of Kan sas, was informed of the burning in Leavenworth of that negro assaulter of women, he became very indignant and concluded he would offer big re wards for the apprehension of the men who participated in these pro ceedings, but in view of the fact that there were five or more thousand people mixed up in it as active par ticipants, or aiders and abettors, he reconsidered. Giving his reasons he- said: "It would be absolutely no use to offer a ra ward, for if the guilty per sons-were arrested they would' neCes sarily have to undergo the first trial in Leavenworth county, and in the present condition of public sentiment there it would be absolutely useless to attempt to prosecute anybody there for the crime." Some time, a short time, too, be fore that a negro was burned at the stake in Colorado for the same crime. The Governor became very indignant, offered rewards and sent a peremptory order to the sheriff of the county to arrest forthwith every participant in that burning whom he could find. In due time the re sponBe came that no participants could be found in that county. Like the burning in Leavenworth there was not a disguised man in the crowd and the father of the girl in - both instances lighted the fire that consumed the culprit. Of course there would be no use in ar resting any one for participating in theBe burnings, for ho jury sonld be found in either of the counties or States that would con vict any of them. There are thou sands of people who shudder at the cruelty of the punishment, but there are very few who would punish the avengers. GEORGIA MARBLE Georgia marble is coming in great demand for building purposes, much of it being shipped even up into the New England States, where it has to compete with Vermont marble. This is the marble that is to be used in the construction of the new buiMiDgfor the Department of Justice, in Wash ington,where large amounts of it had been previously used in other public and private buildings. ' The owners of the marble works at Marble Hill, Pickens county, Ga., were recently awarded the contract for erecting that building against five other bid ders, their bid being $1,387,200, the next lowest $1,426,990 and the high est $1,597,922. - There are immense deposits of this stone in Georgia, and this inter ests us because the deposits extend into North Carolina, being found in Cherokee and other counties in in exhaustible q Entities and-of many varieties, and suitable for many pur poses on aceonnt of the different col ors and tints. As far as we know no use has been made of these marbles yet because they are somewhat out of the line of transportation, but the time will come when they will be utilized and prove a source of mnch wealth. When the Chinese minister met David B. Hill in Albany a few days ago, Chinaman-like, he popped a lot of questions at him, leading off with Are you married ? How many chil dren have you ?

The little lips are always puck ered to give or take a kiss. In homes where there are children, love reaches its fairest and sweetest proportions. In childless homes the kiss of wife and husband grows formal, and presently is neglected ; the springs of love in the heart become choked for want of use; and exercise.: Childlessness is a great sorrow to many women. It is like a curse from Nature, who bids all crea tures to be fruitful. It is not a curse but a misfortune. Often the conditions which cause childlessness are removable.

And inculcate proper notions of the style, as it's pursued. Let us show him all the glories of the white man's kingdom come. And, by way of introduction, sell him lots of white man's rum. Let us seek our heathen brother in be nighted lands afar. And impress him with the wrongness of his habits as they are; Let ns guide him slowly, surely, till he's nobly civilized. And has banished all his foibles, all his fancies, so despised ; Let us show him how he's destined to go forward with a jump. Lest our grand, resistless progress take him midships with a bump Let us teach him that the bolo and the dagger are not right. When the seven shooter follows up its barking with a bite; Let, its bring him to the gospel of the skirt and full dress suit, And the glad and glorious tidings of the proper shoe or boot; Let us lift the poor old heathen from the bog wherein he sticks. And explain to him the beauties of the game of politics. Thus we'll lator with the pagan till he understands our ways. And will ponder with , a shudder on his old unhappy days. We will stock his land with clothing, we will dot it with golf links, And he'll hail the architecture of the home of fancy drinks; And we'll get the glory for it for the good that we will do All the grand, impressive glory and we 11 get bis money, too.

CATARRH A NATIONAL CALAMITY. Prominent members of Congress that owe their health jto Pje-rn-na. INTERIOR OF UNITED Our nation is passing through a great political crisis. Whether our national policy is to be one of territorial expan sion, or whether we are to remain aloof from international complications, is the supreme question confronting our Con gress. The attention of the world is di rected toward us. The deliberations of eur Congress have come to be of inter national importance. But this consideration affects only our external welfare. Our domestic problems are not one bit less import ant. We have serious questions before us that relate only to home interests. Chief among them is the health of our people. Catarrh has already become a national curse. Its ravages extend from ocean to ocean. More than one-half of the people are affected by it. It has b come such a serious matter that it has passed the boundaries of the medical profession and become a national ques tion. Senators are talking about it; Congressmen are discussing it. They are not only considering the extent and chronic nature of the disease, but the possibility of finding a national remedy to meet this national calamity. Gong. Howard from Alabama. "I have taken Pe-ru-na now for two weeks, and find I am very mnch rjslieved. I feel that my cure will be perma nent.

' New Yobk, January 19 The cotton market opened firmj, wilth prices three to ten points higher, and exhibited many evidences of underlying strength pretty much throughout the sessioD. Speculation later was sluggish and of an evening-up type. Tbe com mission interests were slow to buy, in view of the manipulation in current month contracts. The South, Europe and room bulls, however; supported the market with great Confidence on every sign of a reaction. The influ ences which broueht about the initial advance were bullish public and pri vate eables from Liverpool and small port and interior receipts. Reitera tion of reports that jspotj cotton South was hardening on: increased export demand and predictions for very light port arrivals next week helped to create a friendly feeling toward the market among hesitant Wall street and Western parties. Week end state ments from American and English cotton mills were cheerful beyond an ticipation. Conservative (parties esti mated the "in sight' this week at 200, 000 to 210,000 bales, as compared with 225,371 last week, 1212,011 last year, 220,610 in 1899 and 275,390 in 1898.
