War costs and Boer mediation hinted in British debate
The piece weighs the cost of Britain’s war in the Transvaal as £200,000,000 with Boers able to cover it via a three percent thirty year loan.

It also notes Georgia politics with Brantley Denmark named trustee of the State University by Gov. Candler, and expresses disappointment at not appointing Senator Judson L. Hand, calling for merit over rhetoric.

Senator Morgan Denies Constitutional Discrimination Motive
Senator Morgan argues that a Louisiana constitutional interpretation does not reveal an aim to discriminate against voters by race or slavery status. He cites U S Supreme Court rulings on state law face validity and intent, and says the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments do not grant blacks a vested ballot right, leaving enforcement to Congress. He links imperialist views to race and notes tensions with Filipinos and Cubans.
