Sound Business Sense.
In an address delivered the other day
before the New York .Merelr.tnls Associa
tion Mr. Robert Ogth n, a prominent and
Mie« hKful New Yolk bu.-dness mon uttered
pome wound sentiments that are w* 11
worth th<‘ attention of < very other busi
ness man In the country.
Mr. Ogden lays down the axiom that in
the present irn of sharp competition in
trade printer's ink is an essential factor
in winning any large measure nt success.
Advertising, acordlng to the dictum 'of
one who knows, and advertising of the
right kind, Is the force which must quick
en all other expenditure of energy that is
required by every business enterprise.
"The column of the newspaper,” says
Mr. Ogden, "is the merchants' rostrum.
It is his pulpit II is his stump. From
that he addresses the public al large.
From that he speaks to his constituency.
He speaks to his audience.”
Advertising, then, being tile medium
through which the merchant gains the ear
of the people whom he wishes to address,
this clear-headed man of affairs insists
that the greatest discretion should lie used
by the advertiser in the exercise of this
privilege of speaking to the public. He
should take care that his advertisement
be true. its his advertising will be a test
of his character. The public is a sharp
critic. It will read his utterances from day
to day, and, having opisirtunity to judge
of their truth or falsity, it will judge him
accordingly.
The wisdom of these conclusions and the
soundness of the advice given to the mer
chants of Gotham are indisputable.
Another phase of the advertising ques
tion very ably handled by this speaker re
lated to some of the apparent failures
charged. The speaker declared that when
such failures existed, they were directly
traceable to timidity or parsimoniousness
on the part of the advertiser. "The most
successful advertising that I have ever
known,” said he, “is that which has been
exploited on a very large scale. .The mer
chant who has had the faith and the eour
nge to spend a certain sum, perhaps a very
large one, in advertising, should by the
same courage and faith be moved to spend
on additional sum and vitalize all the
rest.”
Senator Proctor, of Vermont, in his
speech on Cuba said: "I am not in favor
of annexation, not because I would appre
hend any particular trouble from it. but
because it Is not wise policy to take in
any people of foreign tongue and training
without any strong .guiding American ele
ment.
—■—
France as a Mediator.
There are those who are still looking to
France to ibrlng about a peaceable settle
ment of the issue between this country
and Spain, ißut it is only necessary to
consider the selfish attitude of France in
this m»tter to conclude that any interfer
ence from that quarter would be promptly
and emphatically resented by Americans.
It has been forcibly demonstrated that
France could hhrdly be an unbiased medi
ator to avert hostilities between Spain and
the United States, even if mediation were
desirable by either o.f the contending na
tions. The uppermost reason with France
why there should be no war with an Eu
ropean nation seems to be that it would
hurt her show business—the projected in
ternational exposiltion at Paris. Diploma
tists would call such an object very petty
and not to he considered.
Again, Spain ewes French capitalists big
sums of money which she even now finds
an overwhelming difficulty in paying. In
what condition would these debts be of the
United 'States would knock out the bottom
of the Spanish treasury?
For these and other reasons France
might wish to prevent war between the
United States and Spain, but it is not to
be believed that this government would
brook any interference. In fact, it would
be considered highly presumptuous for
France to offer her good offices under uhe
circumstances.
"Our country—may she ever be right;
but our country, right or wrong!”
w _
Mr. Calvin Withdraws.
Saturday's Augusta Chronicle makes the
announcement that Georgians have one less
candidate to decide between at the June
primary. Hon. 'Martin V. Calvin will not
allow his name to be further considered in
connection with the office of commissioner
of agriculture. He has accepted a business
offer that mis been made to him.
Mr. < alvin s entrance into other pur
suits leaves the field open to Commissioner
Nesbitt and Senator Stevens, and there
will now be a spirited contest for the
votes of Richmond, which were, of course,
conceded to Mr. Calvin. Both of these
gentlemen have warm champions in Au
gusta. who will push their claims upon
the voters of Richmond, says nhe Chroni
cle* The withdrawal of Mr. Calvin sim
plifies the commissoiner's race somewhat,
and it makes all the more certain what
was already certain—that Hon. O. R. Ste
vens will get the nomination. He is mak
ing the wonderful campaign of all the
etate house candidates and -he intends to
keep it up until June.
The race is now between Stevens and
Nisbett, and the people will not have any
difficulty in making their choice, once they
have seen the two men and heard their
Haims presented.
Editor Gus Morrow, of the Jonesboro
Enterprise, has the following to say’ of
South Georgia’s able and loyal Democrat
Hon. O. B. Stevens:
“Hon. O. B. Stevens seems to be lead
ing in the race for state commissioner of
agriculture. He is a splendid campaigner
and is putting forth his best efforts in his
canvass for this office. He is making no
fight on Comni.ssinoer Nesbitt, except as
based on she belief that that official has
been in office for several terms and should
accordance with the rule of
rotation. 'Mr. Stevens is a practical far
mer, a man of ability and a loyal Demo
crat, and the people of Georgia will make
no mistake if the elect him to the office to
which he now aspires.”
Not Autonomy, But lndepender.ee.
Those who expect President McKinley to
I acquiesce in any autonomy scheme that
I Spain may urge as a solution of the Cu
■ ban situation, will be disappointed. It is
i already clear that the sentiment In this
i country is too strong to tolerate such tem
porising, and Mr. M -Kinley will now be
! compelled to take vigorous ami definite ac
i tion, whether he wants to or not.
Congress did not appropriate $50,000,000
for autonomy, and unless the President
' proves by tomorrow that he is fully in atf
eord with the spirit of this appropriation,
Congress will, no dou:<t, take the matter
into its own hands.
But the people of the country want to
stand behind the President if he will let
them; they do not want to see the ex
ecutive ami legislative branches of the
government at variance in the face of a
crisis involving peace and oar national
honor.
They are, 'how. ver, tired of delay. If
Cuban independence can be secured with
out a bloody strife through the aid of di
plomacy, the whole American people will
rest content and nobody will be dissatis
fy d, but it is complete independence, and
not autonomy, that will satisfy them.
The New York Sun has from the first
been a strong friend of the Cuban cause
and 1s at the same time a strong supporter
of the administration. But the Sun will
have none of any autonomy schemes. That
journal says:
Every day since Congress voted $50,000.-
000 for the settlement of the Cuban ques
tion, President McKinley 'has given an ad
ditional bond to settle it. The President’s
responsibility to do this lias been as 'great
as the confidence publicly reposed in him.
Settlement by autonomy, supposing Spain
io consent, may be in-geniu : and soothing
and approved,'by much wisdom: but if the
chief aim is to accomplish the hopes of
Cuba and America, which are one, the ad
vocates of autonomy must’answer these
questions:
How long will autonomy last to prevent
Cuba’s actual freedom?
How long would the Cubans and our
selves be kept in a state of irritation and
anxiety, for example, by the v-’its of
Spanish warships to Havana in tie guise
of sovereignty?
And could a proposition for autonomy
rby any chance sow bewilderment and dis
sei sion in the tanks of the insu.gents tint
could defi at -the :evolution's purpose?
H the revolution should bo moke:’. in
rii.id of satisfied by a: y act al’ the United
States, the resp-tm. ihility lor it would be
• oo crushing to be borne.
Governor Atkinson’s action in commu
ting the sentence of Mr.-'. Elizabeth Nobles
is bring generally endorsed. Here is one
from the Birmingham (Ala.) News: “The
action of Governor Atkinson, of Georgia,
in commuting the death sentence of Mrs.
Elizabeth Nobles to life imprisonment will
receive the endorsement of all humane
people. Mrs Nobles is an old white wo
man, who has passed the three score mark
in life’s Journey. She is in feeble health
ami is an object of pity and commisera
tion. Her case is one where justice de
served to be tempered with mercy. To
have hanged her would have reflected
nothing but discredit upon the state of
Gtorgla..’’
The Rome Tribune puts these pertinent
qu rations:
“War with Spain moans five cent cotton
and probably much less. War with Spain
means high priced breadsluffs and 'high
priced meats. What arc our Southern
planters going to do this year? WiM they
go on their foolish way and make another
large crop of cotton? It is not too late
yet to reduce the acreage in cotton and
increase it in earn, peas, beans, potatoes,
etc., and raise more hogs and cattle for
beef? Will they do it?
The Thomasville Times-Enterprise en
dorses the governor’s action in commuting
Mrs. Nobles’ sentence. Tt says: “Upon the
recommendation of the pardon board
Governor Atkinson has. commuted the
dr-nth -c-ntcr.cc of Mrs. Nobles to imprison
ment for life. And his action will be very
generally endorsed. This disposes of a
noted case which has been attracting gen
eral attention for the past three years.”

The Noted Cartoonist Here .for Tomorrow
Afternoon.
J. Franklin Caveny lectures tomorrow
afternoon for Hie benefit of the Pansy Cir
cle ait tiie Academy of 'Music.
Caveny’s “chalk talks" are recognized
as one of the best things of the day and
cannot but interest everyone. He is a
cartoonist of the first order, second only
to Frank Beard, and many people who
have seen him draw and heard his lecture
think that he is fuily the equal of Beard,
in fact. Ithe Chicago Times Herald, speak
ing of him, says that "He surpasses all
others,”
He works with the crayon with equal
facility, and landscapes and portraits. A
few bold dashes, at first uninteligible, and
tiie man or the scene is before the aud
ience. Then as he goes he lectures and
much instruction is derived.
Th'v entertainment is for the benefit of a
most "worthy object. The Pansy Circle is
made up of the younger members of the
community and has done much good.

" CUBA MUST HE FREE,”
Hark! What speech is this we hear.
In the land we love, so dear.
Stretched frvtn sc: to sea?
’ Stout it level to every tor.
On the western hemisphere.
Shout it f <: and shout it near.
“Cuba must be tree!”
Hist: R.;?cui> :-*it wixi the walls
Ol cur gov. rtitn< ntal halls,
Full of ir»< tody.
“T1 tar her agonizing calls!
Rescue her before she falls’”
Shout i! with your throats, ye squalls,
“Cuba must be free!”
Ere a- ingle < ;>nnon roar.
Buic.ing front the Union’s shore.
Thunders' on the sea.
Every heart, the nation o’«.r.
Sympathetic to the core
Will have hurled, from out its bore,
“Coba mu> t be. free! ”
Hear the throngs on England’s strands,
Slmutinf as they wave their hands.
Let fear'to Cuba be
Bound by no ei-thrallrm nt’s bands.
Let the fairest of fair lauds
Have no shackles on her hands!
“Cuba me.; be free!”
Hear the withering tempi .-Us blast
Shout it as it. hurries past
Bounding o’er tin- sea!
Hear the Future and the Past
And the Present, all amassed,
► Shout it o’er cosmos vast
“Cub : mt‘< : be fr. < !"
