GOMGTALKS,
The Old Chief Says That He
Will Gain Freedom
or Die.
HIS SOLDIERS DETERMINED.
They Suffer all Hardships for Their
Cause and are Opposed to Au
tonomy as Firmly as Ever.
Havana, Feb. 17. —After several days in
railway cars and steamships, inside the
Spanish lines, <apd a hard night's ride on
horseback outside, 1 reached the army of
Gen. Gomez. From reading his proclama
tions and the prtss reports 1 had expected
to find a very different condition of affairs
than that actually existin'/. In the west
ern part of the island where we have had
to fight every day, we have been told that
the east was Cuba Libre, and that the in
surgents were in possession of everything.
iSuch is not the case, however.
All reports of Gen. Gomez’s manoeuvres
to the contrary notwithstanding, he has
remained in tne same neighborhood for
nearly two years, and has issued his orders
and proclamations from there. His forti
fied position, of which we sometimes read,
does not exist, except in the imagination of
his pacific champions. He is encamped in
the hills near Santi Spiritus, with from
sixty to seventy men in 'his personal es
cort. He has no discipline in his forces
whatever. After delivering my papers I
set out to see his 12,000 or 15.000, Which
it is said he has always near enough for
an emergency. These forces I found com
manded by Cuban officers of various ranks
and classes. For Instance, I wculd find a
major or a captain with a part of a regi
ment, attempting some sort of military
discipline, and the colonel of the same reg
iment Absolutely despising anything per
taining to military tactics.
Everywhere the same opinion prevailed
regarding autonomy, however. In this parr
of the island, where the forces are entirely
made up of country people aud negroes,
there is no attempt at reasoning. Wheth
er or not autonomy would Ibe good for them
they don’t know, nor do they care. They
believe that independence is geed, any
that everything else, must, of course, ibe
bad. The forces are very well armed, and
have plenty of ammunition.
There is much suffering during the cool
nights, because the soldiers are not prop
erly clad.
They believe that the war will be ever.
Upon what they base this conclusion is dif
ficult to say. The chiefs Insist upon this
point when addressing their men, and the
men believe it. It is necessary to make
rash promises -now in order to hold the
forces together.
A year ago they were made to 'believe
that the United States would come to their
aid before the rains begun. Wh n the
rains came, and the United States did not,
they were told that t (Spain could not get
money to continue the war through an
other winter campaign. When the winter
came on -and Spain showed no signs of
weakness, they were encouraged by Wey
ler’s recall. They -now believe that the
war is bound to end in a victory to -the
insurgents before May.
Os the food in tihis part. I can add little
to what has been said of that in the west.
The men here have less money, and arc
not so easily able to purchase anything
from the towns. For this reason they are
more like savages, and will eat 'things that
wo would net think of using for food, such
as rats, snakes and alligators. Should the
war last another year and the concentra
tion continue, cannibalism is likely to be
gin. The chief article of food is the root
crop. These will -pass with the rainy sea
son. Believing in the speedy termination
of the war, they have made no attempt at
preserving or replenishing this supply. Af
ter seeing these things, I went Ito talk to
the general-in-chief. He is as little dis
posed to consider Spain's proposition of
autonmy as ever. He said that it mad:
little difference to him or his army what
Spain had offered. He began the struggle
for independence, and would accept
nothing else.
“Is Spain’s plan of autonomy -as liberal
as you could wish, Ganerst"” I asked.
“I -atm not to be the judge,” he replld,
after a few minutes of study. “The plan
was offered to pacificos -and Spanish resi
dents as an aim against me and the liber
ating army; and.” he continued, “to gain
time from the United -States. I had never
asked for autonomy, and it makes little
difference what the 'plan is.”
I then -asked if he had faith in Spain's
promise.
“That.” he said, “makes but little more
difference. “Spain -has never kept her
promises to Cuba, and it is hard to believe
that she will give to a colony a govern in »t
so much, more liberal than she has at
home.”
“On the other hand,” he continued, “I
cannot see how she could draw back from
the position now. with the eyes of 'the
world on he..
“But this is rot a good subject to dis
cuss in camp, as the greater part of my
men know nothing of its meaning.”
I then asked what he thought of Wey
ler’s recall.
“That,” he answered, “is a question 1
like to answer, because it is the most im
portant point in the war. If Weyler had
remained, and Spain could have prevailed
on the United States President to keep
hands off. the war must have ended this
spring. Viewed in this light, Spain must
have acted unwisely: but If forced by the
United States to withdraw Weyler, -his
leaving was a great blow to our cause.”
I then asked if he would ever give up
under any consideration.
“No.” he said, “I remain in the field till
Cuba is free. If it does not come in my
life time, I will be buried here until my
friends can bury me properly in Cuba
Libre.”
All In al?, these are the darkest days of
the revolution. But the soldiers, half fed,
half naked, unpaid, were never more de
termined to continue their struggle for
liberty.

Mr. T. Skelton Jones was the foreman of

ARE YOU TO LIVE IN ALASKA?
Some Requirements That Will be Found In
dispensable.
The universal article of diet in that
country, depended upon and indispensable,
is bread or biscuit. And to make the
bread or biscuit, either in camp or upon
the trail, yeast cannot be used —it must be
baking powder; and the powder manufac
tured by the processes of the Royal Bak
ing Powder Company, miners and pros
pectors have learned, is the only one
which will stand in that peculiar climate
of cold and dampness and raise the bread
and biscuit satisfactorily.
These facts are very important for every
one proposing to go to Alaska and the Yu
kon country to know, for should he be
persuaded by some outfitter to take one of
the cheap brands of baking powder it will
cost just as much to transport it and then
when he opens it for use, after all his
labor in packing it over a long and diffi
cult route, he will find a solid caked mass
or a lot of spoiled powder -with no strength
and useless. Sush a mistake might lead
to the most serious results. Alaska is no
place in which to experiment in food, or
try to economize with your stomach. For
use in such a climate and under the trying
and fatiguing conditions of life aud labor
in that country everything must be the
best and most useful, and above all it is
imperative that all food supplies shall
have perfect keeping qualities. It is ab
surd to convey over such difficult and ex
pensive routes an article that will dete
riorate In transit, or that will be found
when required for use to have lost a great
part of its value.
There is no better guide to follow in
these matters than the advice of those
who have gone through similar exyperi
cnces. Mr. McQuestin, who is called the
"Father of Alaska,” after an experience
of years upon the trail, in the camp and in
the use of every kind of supply, says: “We
find in Alaska that the importance of a
proper kind of baking powder cannot be
overestimated. A miner with a can of bad
baking powder is almost helpless in Alas
ka. We have tried all sorts and have been
obliged to settle down to use nothing but
the Royal. It is stronger and carries fur
ther, but above all things, it is he only
powder that will endure the severe cli
matic changes of the arctic region.’
It is for the same reason that the United
States government, in its relief expedi
tions, and Peary, the famous arctic trav
eler, have carried the Royal baking pow
der exclusively.
The Royal Baking Powder will not cake
or lose its strength either on board ship
or in damp climates, and is the most high
ly concentrated and efficient of leavening
agents. Hence, it is indispensible to every
Alaskan outfit. It can be had of any of
the trading companies in Alaska, but
should the miner procure his supplies be
fore leaving he should resist every at
tempt of the outfitter to palm off upon him
any of the other brands of baking powder,
for they will spoil and prove the cause of
great disappointment and troble.

STATE POLITICS
AT WASHINGTON
Senator Bacon and Steve
Clay Are on the Candler
Side Strong.
CLAY PREDICTS VICTORY
For Candler ana Says That it Will
Help the Democratic Party-
Bacon Was First for Jenkins.
Joe Ohl, writing from Washington on
the subject of .politics, says:
“While the members of the Georgia del
egation have been careful to avoid public
declarations concerning the recent develop
ments in the state politics, it is not to be
supposed that they have not watched with
great interest those developments, and
have not done much talking among them
selves. The Candler letter, its prompt ex
planation by its author, and the announce
ment of the candidacy of Judge Atkinson,
which came so closely on the heels of the
letter, have'been much discussed wherever
Georgians have been gathered together—
that is, unless there happened to be a
newspaper man present. Then the subject
was promptly changed.
“Most of the members of the delegation
are friends of both the gentlemen who are
aspirants for the high office, and while
they have their preferences they are chary
about saying anything which can be con
strued as putting them in the attitude of
dictating to the people of their districtcr
on a mater which the people themselves
have to decide. What 'they may have writ
ten to their friends at home is another
matter. As it now looks, most of them
are personally in favor of Colonel Can
dler. To make further specifications would
be pure speculation on my part, and might
lend to misrepresentations, so I do not at
tempt it.
There has been more talk here about the
probable action of Senator Clay than of
any other Individual member of the dele
gation. This is because of his chairman
ship of the state committee, and of his ac
tivity in behalf of Governor Atkinson in
the campaign of 1894. A strong effort was
made to get him to criticise 'the much
talked of Rome letter, but he pointedly and
positively refused to be drawn into the
controversy. He has already declared for
Candler, and there he stands as strong as
ever.
in other words he has declared himself
as favorable to the nomination of Colonel
Candler, believing that his nomination
would mean a splendid Democratic victory
in November; and he has added to his
statement the belief that Candler will car
ry all of the counties in the section of 'tlhe
state In which both Senator Clay and Col.
Candler live. He sees no reasn to
again declare bis position with every de
velopment of the campaign. Having once
stated his position, there would be no ne
cessity for further declaration unless he
saw occasion to change his position, and
the fact that he makes no further an
nouncement means that he has not
changed his ideas. He does not construe
the letter as a reflection upon himself or
his friends. I feel warranted in making
this distinct declaration because of the
Senator's talk with his friends here. He
sees no reason to change his advocacy of
Candler’s nomination. He does not con
sider that there is any occasion for him
or his friends to take offense at the .ex
pressions used in the Rome letter, and the
efforts of these who are fighting Car.dkr
to use that letter will have no effect upon
him.
'As for Senator Bacon, he was outspoken
for Candler in the event Jenkins did not
run. as soon as Speaker Jenkins declared
that he was not a candidate, Senator Ba
con expressed himself freely for Candler,
and with the hope that he would be nomi
nated without opposition. Os course,
neither he nor any of the others who are
for Candler question for a moment the
right of Judge Atkinson or any other Dem
ocrat becoming a candidate for this or any
other office. It goes without saying, how
ever, that Senator Bacon knows that Can
dler’s election means no hostility to his
race for re-election to the senaite, while
bls friends assure him that the success of
the opposition would mean war to the
knife on him. Everybody here knows that
Senator Bacon feels an interest in Can
dler’s sueess, and would be glad to see him
the nominee.
As to the members of the house dele
gation, if there .has been any change in
the sentiments of any of them I have not
heard of it; and I think I would know if
there had 'been any such change. This is
certain; With the single exception of Mr.
Brantley, who even then had intimations
of the candidacy of his close friend, Judge
Atkinson, the entire delegation seemed to
rejoice when the indications pointed to
Candler's nomination without opposition.

The roof painting done for me by Mr.
Harvey English has been and still is one
of the most satisfactory pieces of work
which I ever had done. He stopped all
leaks in a large tin root, and there were a
great many. His whole transaction was
fair, business-like and satisfactory. Re

Mr. Harvey English has covered the root
of the engine, room of the Albany Water
works with his roof paint, and I am well
satisfied with the work. He has also done
some work for mo personally, two years
ago, which has proved satisfactory.

the market possesses. Come and see them at tlv factory on New St
roof. Since Mr. English painted the root
It could not be fixed except with a new
it has not leaked any. He has painted roofs
for J. W. Hopson, John Tillman, Clayton
Groover and others. He does the best work
I have ever seen done on tin roofs. He is
an honest and upright man, who would not
deceive you for your money.

Having had Mr. Harvey English to pahit
several roofs with his incomparable prep
aration for stopping leaks, it affords me
pleasure to bear testimony to his honest
workmanship and to the fact that “Eng
lish Paint Stops the Leaks; Yes, It Do.”

Mr. Harvey English has stopped a very
bad leaking roof for us with his English
Paint. I recommend his paint to any one
who is troubled with leaky roofs.
F. Whire, Supt.
Georgia Cotton Oil Co., Albany Mill.
Mr. English has done some work for us
that required the best of paints and skill
as a workman. Without soldering he has
made a very leaky roof dry and tight. It
gives us pleasure to recommend him.

Thomasville, Ga., Ag. 18. 1894.
The corrugated iron roof of our shop
leaked so badly that in times of a heavy
rain, we have been compelled to shut
down all work and wait until the rain was
over. Mr. English Painted the roof with
his English Roof Paint, stopped the leaks,
and now the work goes on, rain or no rain.
His paint is a first-class article. We take
pleasure in recommending English and his
paint. Beverly Bros. & Hargrave,
