C THURSDAY, JUKE 24 Father JSVorth'a brain has been at work for sometime, and from it has at last emerged, in all its glis tening beauty, the Sheriff's Institute. The Father an3State Treasurer calls the Sheriffs of the State, from Cher okee to Currituck, to come together in Eokmn conclave at Morehead City July 27, where the Father, while the ealt sea ripples up the beach, will instruct them in "how they should ought to do." A working model of a scaffold should be on exhibition, and its practical use should be demonstra ted. There may be days devoted to Hnw in Collpct Tuxes." and the discussion of the question, "Should fihinVen Thieves be Chased in the Dark of the Moon ?" The institute ought to be interes ting and profitable. According to the records of Spaniards on file at Havana, the the statistics of Spanish victories are as follows : Insurgents killed Insurgents wounded Insurgent officers killed Insurgent officers wounded Horses killed Horses wounded Horses captured Prisoners taken Insurgent camps captured ltifles captured Hounds ammunition captu'd )5,613 93,170 209 594 13,120 9,000 15,793 1,823 . 933 30,699 077,632 2,345 Machetes captured Insurgents "presented" them selves for amnesty 2,671 According to their own statement they have killed and wounded nearly 200,000 Insurgents and yet they aver that a state of war does not exist in the Island of Cuba. And those that the Spanish have failed to kill are still kicking up a dust in the lower edge of the Island. m Second Vice President Fin ley, of the Southern railway, has, along with other observers of events, re marked the rapid development of industry in the Southern States. He says: "The South is in an era of practi cal and successful development of great natural advantages. There is a unanimity among the people upon the subject of development, and a general disposition to foster indus trial growth. The plans and meth ods of placing the resources of the Southern country before the outside world are systematically arranged, and are bound to be beneficial to that section. J'Cotton manufactures have large ly increased, and have proved to be more profitable than in any other section. Many new mills have been er cted, and many more greatly en larged, as well as provided with the most modern machinery and appli ances. It should not be surprising to see within a short time the cotton produced in the Carol in as and Northern Georgia taken entirely by local mills." The Review of Keviews, one of the ablest periodicals in the country, lays: "The redemption of the public must lie in the public opinion of the West and South. The East has fal len under the bad spell of money; . and even the pulpit takes its " tone largely from those elders and vestry men and pillars of religion and philanthropy who do business in Wall street. It i3 a hard tiuth, and one shocking to the sensibilities; but true it is, nevertheless, lh;it there is often a more genuine ring of patriot ism and higher stuiiuient for na tional honor in Tammany Hall itself than in Wall street." Col. Marcus Aurelius II anna and some of his satellites held a banquet in Washington this wei k, at which they recalled the incidents of the St. Louis convention and the subsequent campaign and election of McKinley. If they will recall the promises of prosperity they made the people, and the "prosperity" that has resulted from McKinley ism, the recollection might be to some purpose. Instead of bringing tariff sche dules to a lower rate, the Republican committee continues to make con cessions to the favored interests, ard the rates go higher every day. If the tariff was not an issue in the last campaign, the Republicans seem de termined to force it into the next one. Senator Lindsay, of Kentucky, says: "The whole question of the Haw aiian annexation movement has risen and fallen simultaneously with the question of the sugar schedule." If the sugar combine is not behind tne annexation movement, ances are deceiving. appear Republicans themselves are not a unit in supporting President Ic Kinley's policy of annexation, and will vote against the treaty. Let the Republicans at least pre sent some sufficient reason for the annexation of Hawaii. Is the United States entitled to pick up any little nation it finds ly ing around loose?

Mr. Charles Pepper, the Cuban correspondent of the Washington Star, writing of the situation in the island says: "I was told by insur gent sympathizers in Havana that in a military sense the inturrection was stronger than ever. My observation of the campaigning did not justify this assertion. The insurrection is perhaps stronger because relatively Spain is weaker. As to military operations, it would be idle to say that General Wt-yler, with his 200,- 000 soldierspias accomplished noth- ng. It is doubtful if Gomez could now lead a body of insurgents within sight of Havana, as he once did. if Maceo were alive it is unquestionable whether he could sweep with his men from Pinar del Rio up into Matanzas as he did on a former oc- . i rrr i casion as an answer to w ey ler a claim that the country was pacified. In a word, the ability of the insur gents for aggressive movements has been lessened. Wnetner it would be renewtd by the recognition of belligerency is a question for, the future. Where they have arms their activity is marvelous. While Mr. Calhoun was in Havana Uenerai Weyler was personally in the field in Santa Clara, and was traveling around to Cienfuegos, Sagua, Placetas, Sancti Spiritus and other points The insurgents said he was afraid to leave his troops, and they did harass the Spanish columns. Qui t a Bandera, the insurg-nt mu latto leader, kept a large force of Spanish troops marching and coun termarching around irinidad. In other ways the insurgents showed their capability tor action. "With all the western and central part of the island garrisoned, there is little now for the Spanish soldiers to do except to wait the outcome of the rainy season. I have previously described the system of fortinas and forts along the railroads in the in terior. The military policy of Wey ler, in making the country a desert, is causing a further concentration of troops in the towns. It sounds ridiculous to say that with a vastly superior force they can probably hold these towns, yet they are not entirely free from attacks by the insurgents. ' He comes to the conclusion that neither side can win. Brief Notes of State News. 20,000 persons are expected to at tend the International Epworth League Conference at Toronto next month.

DEMOCRATS AND THE TAR'FF. The Star Thinks Their Position on the Question is Changed. 'Abundant evidence has been pro duced this week of the disintegra tion of the Democratic party on the tariff question. There is nothing about it so very surprising to those who have been in with the current private talk among leaders. There is really more indifference toward the tariff pretensions of - their party in the past among Democrats than at w vote that ! UC TUW UU UULLUIly UX OUT f VW fcUaif i nas oen tafcei cieany indicates, says the Washington Star. "As far as its significance to. the D.mocratic party is concerned, taxed cotton has a great deal to do with free Bilver. With the doctrine that high or low tariff has little to do with the condition of the coun try, which has been preached by the silver people since the Chicago con vention, there has developed among the Democrats a greater or less in difference toward the contentions on the tariff between the two great par ties during the past several years. The determined purpose to obliterate the tariff as an lanue fnrnishes an excuse to every Democrat to be as much of a protectionist as regards his local interests as he wants to." The leading D. mocratic newspa pers do not hold the same opinion as the Star. They say that tariff re form is as much a principle of the Democratic party as it ever was, but that the financial question now ex ceeds it in importance and timeli ness. In the Southern States.
