The press dispatches tell us that
a great railway system for the South
ern States that will equal the im
mense traffio lines of the Pennsyl
vania road is the latest ambition of
John W. Gates. If this be the case
we hope a union depot for Durham
will be included in the plans, and
we call Mr. Gates' attention to this
before we forget it, and he lets it
slip his mind.
Thb Iowa State Legislature has
before it a bill contemplating the
relief of editors from existing libel
laws, by placing the responsibility
upon the author who may furnish
libelous matter to any owner, man
ager, editor or reporter of any news
paper, magazine, etc. Upon con
viction the vender of such news is
to be fined not less than $500, or
imprisoned in the county jail, not
to exceed one year, or both. Sev
eral States have enacted similar
laws and news managers are fast
finding out that in many cases "Si
lence is golden."

Mb. Roosevelt and Senator Han
na have locked horns on the Isth
mian canal question. Senator Hanna
has been openly leading the obstruc
tionists for sometime, determined
if possible, to prevent any canal
legislation at this session. Now
Mr. Roosevelt has taken the other
tide and is insisting that there shall
be definite canal legislation before
Congress adjourns. There can be
no doubt that Mr. Roosevelt has
got on the popular side of this im
portant question, in fact, there is
reason to believe that is why he it
demanding canal legislation.

The man who struggles and toils
to earn an education is the one who
makes the most of it, hence it is
held by many that charity schools
are not fruitful sources of benefit to
the average beneficiary. The two
great military and naval government
schools, though surrounded by en
vironments that are the least object
ionable, have not always produced
the best results. Viewed in that
light the benefit from the noble idea
and the magnificent bequest of Cecil
Rhodes is disparaged as to the
amount of probable good it will ac
complish. The men whom this
money sends from this country to
Oxford may turn out o be super
cilious cads or the lowest types of
ingrates. Akin to this experiment
may be named the experiences of
the South in its contributions for
the education of the negro, and the
danger of educating men improperly.
The negro has had too much of
what Ceoil Rhodes has made pos
sible for unworthy men.

Stinging and caustic were allasbcs
to President Roosevelt and General
Miles made by Right Rev. B. J.
Kel'ey, bishop cf the Catholic dio
cese, in his memorial address before
the confederate veterans Saturday
night. His references to the presi
dent and General Miles were as fol
lows: "It is true that the gentleman who
now happens to sit in the presiden
tial chair at Washington has written
of President Davis: 4Before Jeffer
son Davis took his place among arch
traitors,. etc , it was not unnatural
that to dishonesty he should add
treachery to the public The moral
difference between Benedict Arnold,
on the one hand, and Aaron Burr
and Jefferson Davis on the othor is
the difference between a politician
who sells hia vote for money and
one who supports a bad measure to
get high political position.'
"When Mr. Davis was living and
a prisoner a fellow named Miles
placed shackles on him in prison,
though there 'was no necessity for
it, and ne one but a brute would
have done it. But I have never
heard that Miles after Mr. Davis'
death maligned his character that
species of the envenomed malice was
reserved for the recreant son of a
southern woman the rough rider
of republican politics, the accidenoy
of 1902, the lightning change artist
of the white house, who can hobnob
with the kaiser's brother and sit
cheek by jowl with an Alabama
negro; who can indulge in meaning
less platitudes while south, bn the
bravery and common heritage of
southern heroes and denounce them
before the Grand Army as anarch
ists; who can profess a broad Ameri
can spirit, which brands sectional
ism as a crime, and laud the loyalty
of our veterans of 1861-65 to the
constitution and reunited country,
while damning evidence of his own
written word Bhows that he com
pared 'the noblest Roman of them
all' Jefferson Davis to a Benedict
Arnold.
"Jefferson Davis was a statesman,
a soldier and man of high charaoter,
a senator, a cabinet officer, a presi
dent, not put in office by a bullet,
but by ballot.
"Therefore Roosevelt's title to
immortal fame will rest on shooting
boasts and profiting by the murder
