Speaking for myself, and voic ing, I belli ve, the •Chamber of Commerce, I wish you abund ant success in your laudable undertaking. R. M. ROGERS, Pres. Chamber of Commerce. Mismanagement Somewhere. /When distinguished officers of the United Slates army are forced to utilize the “round robin” to seek redress of griev ances. it is ample testimony that there Is gross mismanagement somewhere. For tile benefit of those among our read ers who have never seen nor signed a "round robin.” it might be well to state that it is a communication addressed to some one in authority, making a request or complaint. The parties who attach their signatures to ttiis paper do so around a circle drawn for that purpose. The ob ject, of course, is to conceal from the ad dressee' the first signature and the order of signing. The evidences of dereliction are accumu lating on every hand. ‘ln indicating the specific instances of culpable mismanagemnt the difficulty arises in deciding where to begin and where to leave off. One of the most recent developments is tiiat a transport carried pontoons for Shaf ter's army. The necessity for this equip ment was felt at \guadores, which was abandoned because our troops could not cross the river, and now after it is all over the pontoons were found encumbering the deck of the transport Alamo ou her return to New York from (Cuba. During the civil war there was a com mittee on the conduct of the war appoint ed. This committee did good service In ascertaining the facts regarding the man agement of every branch of the service. Now is the time for another similar committee. Rooseve It’s Break. Colonel Ted Roosevelt is as Irrepressible as he is brave. Therefore though he does admirable things he is liable at any time to put his foot in it. That was what he did when he wrote that letter to Secretary Alger asking to have the Rough Riders sent to Porto Rico and asserting that they were three times as good as any State troops This was not a very discreet thing to say. whether true or not. But Teddy never did stop to think whether a thing was discreet. He has been accustomed to speaking his piece aud taking the conse quences, and in this ease the consequence may prove to .be loss of a gubernatorial nomination, for the Roosevelt boom has been assuming really serious proportions. I he letter which iColonel Roosevelt wrote to General Shafter appealing for a speedy removal of the troops from Cuba was too outspoken to suit the secretary of war and that offiifal saw away to give Roosevelt a combing down by publishing the letter he had himself received from him to gether with a curt reply. His temper got the best of him and he did it. The suspicion exists that in some way’ or other Senator Platt, too, had a hand in the publication df this correspondence but whether this was true or not it serves Platt’s purpose equally well if he was anxious to kill off the Roosevelt boom be fore it had acquired unmanageable pro portions. Some War Indemnities. Russia punished Turkey severely for her temerity in waging the war of 1877. 1 he treaty of Stefano, signed 11 months after she beginning of the war. provided that the Sultan should pay an indemnity of $.30,000,000. About one-half of this was iu payment for the cost of the war, and the other half was for damage done by Turks to citizens of Russia. The Czar preferred territory to cash, and the Sultan, having more of the former that the latter article, willingly agreed to cede part of his land. The Powers allowed Turkey to make such a concession as they approved, and the war led directly to the great treaty of (Berlin, which was to settle the Eastern question, and to everybody’s surprise set tled it for 20 years at least. Japan believes she was defrauded of the fruits of her victory over China. Yet the Mikado exacted from the Celestial Em peror a sum amounting to nearly $200,000.- 000. and added to his territory the Island of Formosa as a result of the terms of the treaty ratified at Cheefoo, May 8. 1895. The island, whose soil is said to be the richest in world, was a splendid prize. Its area is as great as that of .Massa chusetts and Connecticut combined, and its papulation is 2.000.000. The recogni tion of the independence of Korea, for ■which the war was waged, also followed. War was a lasing investment for the Sultan of Turkey when he fought Greece last year. The Powers would not let him •exact an indemnity of more than $20,000,- • 000. which was not more than a fourth of what the war actually cost the Grand Turk. But Greece was poor, and the add ing of a new debt to her already over whelming obligations would have swamped the uation. It s mighty little we owe the Philippine insurgents. But we do owe it to ourselves to prevent any massacres and acts of bar barity in or around Manila if we can pre yent it. Tobacco in Georgia. Mr. J. 8- Best, agent of the land and in dustrial department of fte Southern Rail way. Atlanta, Ga., writes: “A German farmer, who recently took up a large farm ; on the line of the Southern Railway, in [ Dodge county. Ga.. has made an expert- ’ rnent in a small way in tobacco-raising. I but without interesting results. He re ports that last year, on one-twentieth of an acre, he raised 160 pounds of tobacco ’ (Sumatra leaf). He was offered SBO for the crop, making a 'price at the rate of : $1,600 per acre yield. He had to learn every feature of the industry as he went along, but was surprised to find that it all \ came easier than he expected. (He readily | learned to Aire it by the ‘Snow process.’ • and. as 1 have myself sampled his product, I believe that he has mastered that very imiwrtant part of the tobacco business. Tobacco is very responsive to good atten tion in cultivation and stands long dry spells well But it requires watchful at tention against the worms, who love the weed as much as many human beings love it. The labor of one person can success fully cultivate five acres of tobacco in Georgia, and it therefore follows that with competent help a man can make fancy profits out of tobacco culture in that state if he understands the businesss.” Among the recent interesting statistics found in an article in the North American Review are figures showing the tremend ous waste of valuable ground in and around large cities in the burial of the dead. Accepting the rate of mortality an nually as 20 per 1,000, with her 3.000,000 population New York has to provide for 70,000 corpses annually. If 4,000 corpses are crowded into one acre, the limit in the ease of the most thickly populated ceme tery, it will be seen that, it requires 17V& acres annually for the interment of the dead of that city. In the case of London 23 acres are required annually. From these figures it is apparent that all the availa ble land around these large cities, for this purpose, must soon be exhausted. It would appear that eventually cremation or some other method of disposing of the dead, other than that now in vogue, will have to be adopted in those communities. An exchange says: It costs the Royal Baking Powder Company something like $500,000 annually for advertising. Some one once suggested to the company that it discontinue advertising one year, the baking was so well known and advertised, and place that amount, $500,000 in the profits. The 'answer was that it would un doubtedly cost the company three times that amount to get the product in its orig inal channels again. This is a pretty good pointer to those business men who imagine they are making a great staving when they discontinue a $4 or a $6-a-month adver tisement a few months in dull season. It never pays to tear out a dam because the water is low. It now looks as if General Miles was hoping to make’ his Porto Rico visit a pay ing venture. He has collected $25,000 in revenue and is waiting for more. He did not have to capture the island, it was thrown at him, and now they are handing him money. Verily things are coming his way. Now that peace negotiations are on foot the figure of Marcus Alonzo Hanna may be expected to come stealing out of the po litical woods. —Omaha World-Herlad. Unfortunately he has never been hidden very far in the woods even during the war. With all due respect to Ireland, we trust that the yacht she Is sending jeer to compete for the Queen’s cup will be beaten as badly as the English boats that have tried to capture the trophy. Emperor William called at Freiderich ruhe to take a last look at the face of ithe lamented Bismarck. It was the man gazing at his master, although heritage had given the man the higher title.

We mean he ean cure himself right away by taking Electric Bitters. This medicine tones up the whole system, acts as astimulant to the liver and kidneys, is a blood purifier and nerve tonic.

The lessons to lie drawn from the Span ish-American sea fights are not clear, sat isfactory and conclusive. With the barely possible exception of the sinking of the Merrimac, as suggested by Lieutenant Hobson, the torpedo has played no part in the naval engagements, and of ramming there has not been any. It was even so at Yalu and throughout the war between China and Japan. But are we satisfied that if the conditions favored the use of torpedoes or rams by the Americans they would not have fairly realized some of thu great expectations concerning one or both of these instruments of destruction? ‘‘The torpedo boat destroyers founder ed,” said the brave Spanish Admiral Cer vera in his report to General Blanco. Yes, and the foundering was brought about by the good practice of the gunners of the Gloucester, a smart armed yacht. Cer vera’s ships were faster than those of Sampson, but they did not get away Thirteen inch guns can huri many tons of shot and shell into the enemy before the advantage in speed ot a few knotsan hour will avail for the emergency. The effect of armament on armor is not yet accurately ascertained. Several points have, however, been made clear by the naval engagements—viz. (1) that modern shells readily set fire to the woodwork of warships, and that therefore wood must be avoided or made fireproof; (2) that speed Is relatively more important from strategical than from fighting considera tions; (3) that in fair fight superiority in marksmanship and quick firing means victory, and (4) that the Americans can do that which they claim—“shoot straight and obey orders.” —Loudoh Shipping World.

Keniiinber the. Baker. Don Carlos is thoroughly familiar with the history and legends of Venice. He turning recently from mass at St. Mark’s cathedral, lie paused before a statuette in mosaic on the front of the cathedral lacing tlie Adriatic and said: “My dear friend, you see this Virgin before which these two lighted lamj keep watch day and night. It was put there in expiation of an error of justice i>y the senate in the time of the republic oi Venice. Let me tell you the tale. A young baker, accused of a crime, was hanged, and a little while after it came t> light that the poor fellow was innocent. Then the senate had this statuette placed in commemoration, and every time that the supreme court of the republic pro nounced sentence of death on a criminal a herald entered and said, Remember the baker, ’ and they commenced a new trial and gave judgment again. The republic has passed away; the statuette remains.” Annual Sales 0ver6.000,000 Boxes FOR BILIOUS AND NERVOUS DISORDERS such as Wind and Pain in. the Stomacn, Giddiness Fulness after meals.
