Reports which reached this coun
try several weeks ago in regard to
the cultivation of cotton in Togo,
West Africa, under the direction of
the German Economic Society of
Berlin, were of such a favorable
character that it was* thought by
some that it would not be many
years before the amount of cotton
produced in that part of the world
would be sufficiently large to have
a marked effect on the prices of cot
ton. The report sent out by the so
ciety, a synopsis of which was pub
lished in our dispatches yesterday,
is calculated to make an altogether
different impression. „
The experiment at Togo is being
conducted by students from Booker
Washington’s school at Tuskeege,
Ala. It is probable that they uu
derstaud the cultivation of the
plant, but it may be that they do
not know how to conduct the ex
periment economically. If they do,
it is a safe assertion that it will be
long while before West Africa
will come into competion with the
United States in the cultivation of
cotton. Notwithstanding the cheap
ness of labor there it costg more to
produce cotton than it does in this
country-a great deal more And
what seemB strange is that there
should be need of fertilizers. The
virgin soil, it would seem, ought to
be rich enough to return a big yield
of cotton, It may bo, however,
that the soil lacks some particular
thing necessary for the successful
cultivation of cotton, and . which it
can get from thekipd of commercial
fertilizer that is used on* cotton
lands in this country.
The olimate does not seem to be
well suited to cotton. According to
the report the first planting was
ruined by heavy rains. Still, it will
take several years to determine sat
isfactorily whether West Africa is
likely to become a great cotton pro
ducing country. From advices thus
far received there does not seem to
be any reason why there should be
tho least uneasiness in this country
respecting the experiment that is
being made at Togo. TheUnii-d
States will continue to be the gr.mt
source of the world’s cotton supply.
Secretary of the Interior Hitch
cock continues to assure the Presi
dent of his loyalty to tho adminis
tration and that he will not resign,
notwithstanding the rumors that are
appearing in the papers. It is said
the President is becoming very
muoh oppressed by this excessive
loyalty, in view of the faot that he
wants the office for somebody else.
The President is about in the posi
tion of the little boy who couldn’t
drive the dog away after he bad tied
a giant cracker to . its tail.—Savan
nah News.
Miss Mary Burkhart, described as
a “good-looking and wealthy young
woman,”' is running for Congress in
the Tenth distriot of Kentuoky, on
a prohibition platform. Miss Burk
hart declares that if she is elected,
she will go to Washington and take
her seat; in making which assertion
she may be oorreot. But notioe that
mountainous “if” in the way.—Sav
annah News.
The Philadelphia Times wants
Borne authority to determine the sex
of the United States; is it “she or
“it’’? France, of course, is “she,” and
so is Great Britain; but it would be
something of an anomaly to call
Uncle Sam “she.” As things have
been going lately, it would proba
bly be better to say “It” and spell
it with a capital I.
The Man They Called “Dad.”
An exchange says “There is a
class of men who are seldom, if ever,
appreciated at their true value. In
this enlightened age they are com
monly called ‘Dad.’ It is dad that
humps himself year in and year out,
on the farm, in the office, or work
shop, in order that his boy or. girl
may go away to school, and upon
their return, that the boy may have
a fine horse and atop buggy and
the girl a costly piano. It is dad
that hustles and cultivates great
calloused knots on his hands and
becomes stoop-shouldered in order
that his offspring may revel in luxu
ry and make tarnal fools of them
selves. His sons and daughters
have learned at his expense to dis-
pise his old-fashioned ways. They
secretly laugh at the Btyle of his
Sunday coat and bell-crowned hat.
On Sunday, when his daughter has
company and he would like to sit
in the parlor and listen to the music,
he has given in various ways to un
derstand that his presence is not de
sirable, and the poor, old man goes
out into the kitchen and stays the
remainder of the afternoon. God
help the son or daughter who goes
back on dad. In the catalogue of
low down cussedness that of ingrat
itude to one’s parents is the most
contemptible.”

Southern people are shedding no
tears on aoeount of the treatment
which General Miles is receiving at,
the hands of the administration.
While they can and do see the injus
tice of reprimanding or retiring an
officer of the army for having given
expert testimony before a commit
tee of the senate, they, in a great
measure, lose sight of these facts
when they remember that that army
officer is Nelson Alexander Miles.
The southern people have not and
never will forget Miles, for he once
committed an act which will always
oause him to be regarded with aver
sion by all southern people. When
at Fortress Monroe he needlessly
placed shackles upon the limbs of
Jefferson Davis and jeered at his
sorrowing wife, he conlnaitted aa
unpardonable crime against the peo
ple of the south. He had no occa
sion and no excuse to so, humilitate
the south’s chief and his own humil
iation at present is but a j;ust retri
bution.—Columbus Enquirer Sun.
Some days ago we reproduced a
clipping from a Philadelphia paper
on food adulteration in which tlm
statement was made that, even hon

It was said that comb was manufac

themselves, and that the cells were
filled with glucose.—Savannah News.

The attention paid Prince Henry
has its reasons. One is that com
merce with Germany has grown
from $30,000,000 in 1865 to $300,-
000,000 in 1901. This is second
only to our commerce with the Uni
ted Kingdom. If there were no
other consideration, business would
snggest an expression of good will
toward the German Prince.—Ex.
