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.” o w s* -i:- o. JT2. x zv.
