ATLANTA'S
MUNICIPAL
CONTEST.
In many respect* Atlanta * municipal
race that Is Jurt starting will resemble
that of Augusta's last city election.
And yet there will be one great dif
ference. There will be probably three
entries, three representative cltisene
conies, tig for the high honor to fill the
mayor's chair. There will be the slo
gan of economy, reform and retrench
ment '.n public affairs.
Hut the colored vote will not have
the picnic that it did In Augusta's elec
tlon. It will not be fed with barbecue*,
dosed with whiskey and openly bought
and sold at every election precinct.
Atlantn will have a white primary.
It Is a white man's town and the candi
date receiving the largest numher of
white votes In the primary, will be
elected mayor of the city without op
position.
Atlanta can do Ibis,and she makes or,
rather, saves money by It. The result
is that there are more men who are
willing to offer for public service and
the public stand a better opportunity
of selecting proper public officials.
The negro vote as It Is used in Au
gusta and Richmond county works a
two-fcld hardship on every cltisen
and taxpayer. Hasn’t the time come
when Augusta can put aside appeal
ing to the negro vote to fill our city
and county offices of public trust?

Better Day*.
(From the Sumter Item.)
If our people had bee® early taught
t„ ,he school of thrift and frugality,
bow Independent wo would be today.
Pot we are learning, and in that far
there i* great future hope Tic
credit evi.tem and agricultural •
laws encouraged extravagance and de
prived us of that vigorous, manly se.f
reiianre which are necessary to a
prosperous country.
Wa got Into debt, and debt is h
mother of humiliation and servitude,
the mighty slayer of confidence, re
spect r.nd manliness. The financial
depression of the past several years
hit ns when we were less able to
bear it; but somehow tve have pulled
along and struggled, and through i;
nit learned lessons of value. The
longest lane has a turning, the long
, st reasons of difficulty must have an
ending end pass away ike a cloud to
give way to the cheery light of the
sun of brighter days. Kven now a e
prophecies of better times near ot
hand. Let ns faint not, but patiently
wait and watch and labor industrious
ly on risking the best of every op
i portuniry Let economy and honesty
be tobUolling principle®, and cheerful
hopefulness a constant condition. ,
Tho booth is ready for the wave of
prosperity, and a large share w.'ll
'■omo our way, for God has blessed us
vi.h a great country which will yet
blossom a? the rose.
Avoid debt, save a little of what
you yet—that of Its-, f will bring the
belter days—the kind of days which
abound with peace, plenty, happiness
and virtue.
It is often a man's strong right arm
that favorably impresses a woman.

Siam h*»? brrQ *ibic to 4ktxti its own
t (if mo of {M acro.
Immediately upon tha evacuation of
the Spaniards, w* ahall control ihe ad
m:ni*tration of Cuba until auch a tine
na th* Cubans themnelve# are in a po
sition to satisfy our administration of
their ability to properly govern Ihoir
I stand.
Porto Rico and other small {aland*
of th* West Indies become absolute
possesion of the I'nlted Btate. In the
Hast Indies we set-tire th* poaseninn of
th* hay. harbor and city of Manila.
We alo tak* Guam and the Hawaiian
island* in rntd-Pacifie. In all we hav*
added more than one hundred thousand
square miles to ihe territory of th*
United State*. W* have shown tbe
world that we can be a fighting na
tion when we choose. Rut at all times
we prefer to be at peace with all
men.
It is only when we witness wanton
cruelty and starvation practiced upon
humanity at our very doors, when wo
feel that wraker peoples are being op- !
pressed, and when such a dastardly
outrage as that perpetrated upon the
Maine has to be avenged, that the
American nation is aroused to arms.
Hostilities have ceased, wo are now
prepared to return with renewed vigor
to the peaceful pursuits of trade and j
commerce.
To a certain extent these have been
Interrupted by the war. though, ex
cept for the loss ot life among our
brave sailors and soldiers, it Is proba
ble that sabcti a balance of the nation
al ledger is struck, we shall be found
the gainers.
For tho future there Is nothing to
hinder progression and prosperity.
There ts universal confidence In the
outloolf. Our domestic trade should
at once resume Its healthy and normal
condition, while our foreign com
merce phould undoubtedly expand.
Crops will be large, and we believe that
the present is undoubtedly the most
favorable moment, in t.he history of the
United States for the expansion of in
dustry and commercial enterprises.
One step won’t take you very
far,
You’ve got to keep on walk
ing,
One word won’t tell the folks
what you are,
You’ve got to keep on talking,
One inch won’t make you very
tall,
You’ve got to keep on grow
ing.
One little ad won’t do it all,
You’ve got to keep them going
