Part of the weight of the charge* la
lifted from ('apt. Carter, however, by

he acted with the approval of the

Dishonorable dismissal and the five

stand.
Carter was Ihe star officer of the
engineer corps. He was graduated
higher than any other man In his
class and distinguished himself In ev- j
ery task assigned to him until he
was put on the Savsnnah work. He
was selected military attache for the
Court of St. James la-fore the discov
ery was made of his Irregularities, i
Capt. Carter's private means are
abundant, so that his display of'
wealth did not creato the suspicion
which afterward arose that he might
be upending the money of the govern
ment Instead of his own. Hl» dis
grace will be complete enough without
penlteutiary punishment. Capt. Car

Mr Martin * alrctlon by a larger ma
jority than had been dreamed of In th#
; forecasting ffgures. This enthusiasm
helped the Marlin canae, for It was ap
parent that the Hrowfi men. under Ita
| influence, were a bit disheartened,
though every one maintained that the
real battle of ballots waa ahead.
An Up Hill l ight.
The Brown men took on more hope
a little ufter 12. Brown ballots com
menced to drop In and this side of the
j line began a beautiful up-hill tight,
contenting every inch of ground and
yielding nothing without endeavor,
i They proclaimed loudly that the dln
| tier hour vote would put them in the
1 lead and threw new spirit among their
1 adherent*. The Martin men admitted
, nothing but that they wore so far In
'the lead that, with anything like work,
and care, they could not be overtaken.
There waa a let up In the rush of
ballots about 12 o’clock. Somebody
tried to put two dogs to fighting, say
ing one represented each side of the
primary. The dog wearing the Marttn
colors ran bla competitor after a few
slips with his paws, aud the Martin
men cheered.
“How ia It that both sides have red
badges?’’ I naked.
“It is this way,” I was informed.
“They have been saying we are pro
hibitionist*. and we put out red colors
to refute the allegation." This waa
from a Martin man. “They said we
were prohibitionists.'* cried out a
Brown man, “and we put out, red col
ors."
It was when the Martin men were In
the Jolllest round, that <he exclama
tion was made, “the white men are
running It today.” One Brown man
created n tittle interest by reading a
letter he had gotten from the Martin
side, urging him to remember that to
day was election day and to not foget
to go to the polls. Mr. Martin's friends
bad mailed the circulars last night
asking hla friends to be sure to go to
the polls, aud. by some error, one of
the letters fallen into the hands of a
Brown supporter.
The next hour of voting did not
show any material change. At 2
o'clock there were about 3*l votes east
and Martin was safety 120 in the lead,
the vote at that time standing nearly
two for Martin to one for Brown. The
Martin men had never let up for a mo

; thorough soldiers, and the only man
| who ha# any bus lues* to .engage in
I war I# Ihe noldier The Irresponsible
whooper should remain at home.
The war Is over, but- mark you Iht*
—that does not mean that we have no
etiemlee. In the Aral place, the Cubans
of Santiago province will never forgive
IPS Ike fact that they took no part to
| the battle of San Juan and a dlatinctly
I secondary, even inconsequent, part In
<he fight at Kl Caney. They know per
felly well that they had nothing prac
tical to do with either of theae vic
tories. It was the American* alone
who * termed these position*, and It
was American blood that waa poured
out on the green fluids. That Is the
truth, and none know it *o well as the
Cubans of Santiago province. If they
could not know it with their own
senses our men certainly lold them it
with great force both during iho battle
and after it.
But far more seriously distressing Is
the fact that tales of tha adventures of
our soldiers In the streets of Santiago
have gone broack-ast through the is
land. Here in Havana, for Instance,
I.a Lucha—a newspepec which Is
against us as much as it dares —prints
almost every day an account of the
other end of the island. Of course, they
are grossly tfhd viciously exaggfrated,
gcccrding to the policy of a large,par
ty of Spaniards here; the article* are
meant to establish a fenr of American
rapacity In the minds of the people of
Cuba; their intention Is thoroughly
vindictive. But. nevertheless, there ia
not an American steamship agent, cat
tle man, provision speculator or corre
spondent who wns In Santiago for any
length of time after Its fall who will
not fmntkly tell you that such and
such things happened there. The la
mentable breaking up of the poker
game heretofore described Is merely
used as an Illustration of the quaint
spirit of gavety which at times ani
mates some of our men.
Now, Havana expects soon to be oc
cupied with troops. Havana
listens with all her ears to these
stretched-cut yarns which I-a Lucha
prints with such glee. > To the citizen
here they sound like truth. He won
ders whether he will be let in for some
game of the kind wheh the American
troops occupy this city. His doubts
are cheerfully encouraged by Spaniards
of the La Lucha type. They laugh and
say: “Oh. you will see! Your Ameri
cans are so kind, so gentle, so just!”
And yet anything in the way of ill
feeling or suspicion would never have
occurred if a certain number of our
soldiers would) completely understand
that whenever they wear the uniform
of a United States soldier they carry
upon their shoulders the weight of the

The Guardian agrees with Mr. Craig

The loss through the almost sole cul

and opportunity to now afforded them
to retrieve their losses by the cultiva

It has been proven that the soil of
this state to capable of producing a
fine quality of tobacco—equal to -the
North Carolina product, and no por

than Hampton and adjoining counties.
Tt has been amply demonstrated that
any soil which produces a fine quality
of cotton can also produce fine tobac
co. The growth of the two products 1s
similar In many respects, a large field
of tobacco, with Its straight rows and
high stalks, presenting much the ap
pearance of a cotton field.
Every farmer In the county should at
once experiment on this profitable cul
ture. and he will reap abundant suc
cess therefrom by following the good
advice to be derived from Mr. Craig’s
valuable pamphlet, which will explain
in minute detail the methods of tobac
co culture. Plant at once and no longer
remain the producers of only low price
cotton, which will result in continued
impoverishment and misfortune.—
