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? » - All men who have long hair are not poet.

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.

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.
