No doubt tho charge Ihat Benator Han
na has made against Hon. Webster Davis,
t am-4v, that he accepted !12-',W> from the
Transvaol government to advocate the
Boer cause In this country with the view
of getting the United States to assist the
Roers. ta believed quite generally by thosr
Republicans who are buter against him
for deserting the Republican party on the
ev* of the presidential campaign and Join
ing tho Democrats, bul It la unfair to ac
cept such a charge as true without Ihe
most ample proof. Rome of the Republican
i papers lake hc poet’ion Ihat Mr Davis
should not reM until he has disproved the
charge. How can hr disprove If He has
<li nitvl M In Ihe strongest language It Is
possible for hm to use. lie haa secured
a denial fmm m-mbers of the Boer gov
ernment. What more can he do?
What he ought lo do. perhaps. Is to sue
Mr. Hanna for damages and compel him
o acknowledge that he has no proof of
the charge. That seems to be the only
course open to him. A large part of the
country will believe that Mr. Hanna would
not have made so sertoue a charge against
Mr. l>avis unless ha had good uuthorlty
tor doing so.
The charge 1* a very grave one. At the
time that Mr liavls visaed the Transvaal
he was an officer of this government, be
ing an assistant secretary of the Interior.
If he acc*-|*ted o large sum of money to
antagonise the policy of the government
of which he was an officer he committed
a very serious offense, Hl* friend*. of
course, will not helteve (he charge Mr
Hanna makes without further proof, but
the pubis- generally will hardly be so
kind, and will expect him to make use of
every means available lo uphold his good
name.
The New York Tribune the other day
printed a long story about how Col. Kill
son 6. Kelt! of South Carolina " a Con
federate officer. Southern planter and life
long Democrat." had declared for Mc-
Kinley, and "expansion and progress."
Commenting on this the News ond Courier
says: “It le remarkable how much Con

Report* from various parts of this atate
Justify the statement ihat the sudden drop
of a cent or more a pound In tho twice
of cotton, does not a arm ihe farmers who
have cotton. They arc nhi:ng It. believing
that the price wtil advance again very
soon. It Is said tha) they feel very easy
over In* situation for ihe reason Ihat
they are oul of debt and therefor* can
afford to hold wbat cotton they have.
Most of them have sold some cotton for
which they received high price. They
hate paid whal they owed their mer
chants and have • nocgli to pay their taxes
There is nothing pressing, therefore, and
they ran afford to watt, l e.ieving that the
prliy will be writ higher than it was two
or three weeks ago and this view twsn
to be borne ou: by the comment* on the
Cotton situation which arc appearing tn
some of the English lafsrs, and which
were quottsl In our foreign dispatches ye -
erdny. The** papers tell the spinners,
who have dosed their mills with the hope
of getting cotton at a lower price, that
they may talk about raising rollon In
other countries tlutn the United Riale-e.
but that Just now they must get cotton
!mm the cotton planters of America. 11
will not be long before the English mill
will have to opau and then the demand
for cotton will be as active as It was tn
the baginning of the season.
Just now efforts are being made to
create the Impression that the crop Is con
siderably larger than It was though! it
would be In the early part of Rcptemlier
!( will no doubt exceed Ihe earlier esti
mate*. Ivcanse Ihe season has been OX -
i reding I y favorable for Ute cotton. There
lias been no frost as yet In most of the
cotton belt, and there mav be none for a
couple of weeks. In Hint event the crop
will be a good many thousands of bales
larger than wa* expelled.
Each farmer ntusl detramlne for himself
*h# question as to whether or not Ihe
price of cotton will go above what It I*
at present. Inforntailon respecting. Ihe
crop Is as accessible to one as to another,
■ttid one man’s Judgment Is apt to be as
good as another's as to the aige of the
crop. It Is probable that light sales In the

In an article on public speaking. In the
Snurday Vttnlrtg Post. United Htwfes
Senator Albert J. Beveridge says:
"It is a remarkable thing that there it
neither wit nor humor In any of the fm

which Inge moil wrote that wtH live an
his erockm wt hat brother's grave and his
fa mot s. 'The T'a*l Klees Before Me Like

tions of Hus genius of Jesters is there m
single trace of wit. There is not a funny
sally in all Burke’s speeches. Lincoln s
Gettysburg address, his first and second
Inaugurals, hi* speech beginning the Doug
las campaign and tils Cooper Union ad
dress In New York are. perhaps, the only
uttcran 's of hi* thtvf will endure. Yet
this greatest of story-*eilers since Aesop
did not adorn or deface one of he*e great
deliverances with story or any form of
humor.
"The reason for thl* Is found In the
whole tendency of human thought and
feeling-dn the whole nwilancboly history
of the raco—where tears ami grief, the
hard seriousness of life and the terrible
and speedy certnirwy of our common fate
of suffering and of death, make ►ombre
the master-cord of existence. The immor
tal things are all *ertows—even sad."

An eccentric clergyman in Cornwall
was much annoyed by the ftiahlt which
some members of his congtevatlon had of

the Youth's Companion After enduring

Mr H looked greatly surprised, but
tha minister with perfect gravity, re
