Why the United States Will Win.
Tin it .ire many r< asom; why ■the United
Stal< a >i ill «l< h~I Sp iii). Il has four .limes
Spain's population and ten Hmm Spam's
width and c,< nenal rc.-ourees. The United
Xla.hr. /.lands al the lie ad <d the great na
tions in 'pomt of inti lhgen>*e while Spain
• till clings, in away, to sixteenth century
ideas and customs. lAdvaii'tage of 'ix/sttion
Is on the side of the t n'u< .1 States, the
principal seat of war, Cuba, being only
about 100 milts from Key West, while it
is 3,000 miles from Spain. Our regular
army is, for its size, tie bi.-.t in .the world,
and our volunteers, ,n iwas demonstrated
'by ibotlh Not t hern and Southern troops in
the civil war, can be Iransfornii d into
thoroughly 'trained .uni efficient. soldiers
quicker than those of any other nation,
'while Hpaiin's foldlirs in Cuba are not well
drilled and are ln< hicient. Prestige and
confidence are on our side, ithe United
tsiales having til l n a victor in all its wans,
■while Spain lias (been defeated 'in every
t 'lniijHirtiiii't war in iwhcih she lias partici-
pated since tile days of Philip IL, three
centuries ago.
I lie world, iueludiing tihe Spanish gov
ernment, knows 'the United States will
win. Spain did not want war, but the gov
ernment dared not yield. The fate of the
dynasty depended on resistance to ithe
United States' demand that Cuiba lie given
up. Tims iwar. even though it 'brings cer
tain defeat, was aceopti-d iby .the (Ministry,
in the hope that defeat would be less dis
astrous to 'the dynasty than surrender.
The world knows what .the result .will be
wii.hoiii waiting for Spain’s collapse, and
this is why tlie reports come out every few
days from the European capitals that af
ter one or .two (battles occur the continen
tal European 'powers twill put pressure on
Spain to force tier out of the light. Ttu
European nations have a stronig incentive
, for this course in the fact that a half
years war, would create a financial con
vulsion in Spain, and this would have a
depressing effect on the money and stock
(markets of every European nation.
Admiral Dewey is no doubt gratified to
learn that his son is proud of him.
The Plan of Invasion.
At last our troops are to move on. Cuba.
Yesterday's dispatches told of the final
orders, and in all probability a considerable
portion of the army ol invasion will leave
Tampa by next Sunday.
General Miles has announced that 66,000
troops will be sent to the island at once,
to lie followed by others as needed.
Ihe war department is hastening the
work of moving the army. All volunteers
in camp will be hastily mustered in and
sent .to Tampa before the end of the week,
ready to go to Cuba.
General Miles says that he can get 66,000
troops into Cuba in ten days.
The victory at Manila has so changed
public opinion that the plan now is to fol
low an aggressive policy in regard to Cuba
and Porto Rico, as well as the Phillipincs.
It is believed the war can be ended in a
short time and a treaty of peace negotia
ted find signed before the summer is over
Up to Saturday the plan was to send
en y a small force of troops to the island;
but. although this was favored b vhte pres
bv n J h " nd (S , ecreUu > Al^r > “ was opposed
by the military experts, who submitted
their comprehensive plan for operations,
and this was accepted.
The feeling now is that further delat
would unnecessarily prolong the war, that
a small force of troops would not be effec
tive in getting relief to the sufferers on
the island beyond a narrow margin, nor
could it protect a base of suppliese. The
4 üban forces could not be relied upon to
assemble at this .place in sufficient
strength to ard the American army. \
small 'body of our troops landed in Cuba
might be utterly destroyed.
Another thing considered is that the vic
tory at Manila, the desperate situation of
the Spanish government at home, the ef
fectiveness of the blockade of Cuba, and
t e developments hourly expected at Porto
Rico, all give promise of a speedy termi
natton of the war if blows are struck with
vigor and in rapid succession. It is pro
posed therefore, to close up the war as
uu.ekly as passible, and having confined
the enemy in 'Havana, to relieve the suffer
ing o the rest of the island and then re
duce het city. The volunteers, as well as

Will Hanna Be Expelled?
The charges against Mark Hannt in
connection with his election to the UnWed
States senate, made by the state senate of
Ohio, have been received by the vice presi
dent and .will probably be laid (before the
Senate The interesting documents will
naturally go into the hands of the commit
tee on privileges and elections. The report
passed the state Senate by a vote of 19 to*
17, and concludes as follows:
“Your committee finds, from the evi
dence taken, that Senator (Marcus A
Hanna is guilty of the crime of- attempt
ing to .bribe John C. Otis, a member of the
House, to vote for him for United States
io? a i wi The eVidenCe ' Wbich bears S
infallible test of proof, and which your
eomm.ttee herewith returns in writing
sufficiently proves this charge and the
findings tn this report The expulsion of
Mr Hanna from the United States senate
is demanded by public justice.”
War has its horrors; trumpets bray;
men march away with valiant tread, while
other men at home 'Will stay to flaunt their
neckties wildly red.
The Proposed Bond Issue,
Let our government follow the policy
adopted by France after she Franco-Prus
zlan war, 'When the French people, not the
money sharks, took the bond? of the gov
ernment Issued to provide means to pay
off the immense indemnity imposed upon
them. This was a master woke of states
manship. Almost every family in France
had a fc< of these pledges of the govern
ment, and they consequently lent all their
energy to strrngthen the government.
They had a direct interest in ,t then, a
pecuniary one. and they rallied to its sup
port accordingly. The agitator, the dem
agogue and the .anarchist could not make
much headway agains t them, they were not
going to join any movement v.hieh was to
pull down the house that sheltered them.
This would not be pleasing to Havana,
McCook and their co-conspirators, tut it
is what the people should demand and
•what Congress should provide.
The Chicago Times-Herald says: "Sen
ator Mason will note how nature preserves
her balance; the geysers in the Yellow
stone Park have quit spouting.”
Driven to Desperation,
From Atlanta Constitution.
In another column we print an article
from The .Macon lEvening News entitled
"They Can't Head Him Oft.” The- News
gives in amusing as w< 11 as a very truth
ful illustration of tin mi tbods employed
to poison the public- uniiut against Colonel
Catqllcr. Arguments have long ago been
laid aside as useless. They i?a.ve .been
shown to the futile. Nobody could prove
to the people of Georgia that Allen I).
Candb r’s record on any .public question is
doubtful, or that his Integrity is not fire
proof and his conviction-: bullet-proof.
Trie people kn<.->7 i., ;ne coiktrary, and
tin "prorating" comibination has begun to
discover that .the public knowledge of
candkr is ba-ed on the man’s open con
duit and his old-lfashioned candor. One
would naturally suppose 'that after dis
ceivei in;; these things the oj»po ition would
>a e its campaign on the special merits
and fitni ■?.? of one or both ot the other
andidat.s; but nothing of .the sort has
been attcn.ptid. The whole business has
settled d< wn into an amusing attempt to
how ih.at Colonel Candler docs not meas
ure up to the standard of the saints. The
point is made tihat he is not a preacher—
I hough we think he would make a good
■ me, other .things being equal.
Furthermore, it is charged that he
"cusra A similar charge, we think, has
been sueci...dully brought against the
father of his country. ,At any rate, no
body has ever taken the trouble to dispute
it. Well, anyhow, the opposition holds up
its bands and rolls its eyes and says that
Candler “cusses'." After a little, >we shall
hear that he chews 'tobacco, and then, as
ihe campaign grows hotter, it will be
eh'argi <1 that he smokr ;■ a pipe, or that lie
de,isn't, polish his shoes, or that his
"ipants” are baggy a.t the knees. And
having made up a list of these heinous
ind unheard-of offenses in a public char
acter, the opposition will ask. with tears
in its eyes, if the people propose to choose
as their chief magisti ate such a man as
t hat.
The amusing part of this campaign is
the fact that those who make these gr&w
some charge® seem to close their eyes to
the fact that, because Candler “cusses,"
or chews tdbaeco, or smokes a pipe, or
does not pretend to be a dandy, it does
not necessarily follow that the opposition
will 'make the people a ibcitter governor.
This leaves a very large vacuum to foe
tilled up, either with abuse or with more
charges.
The result of the campaign against
Candlri maybe known by the character
of it.

James Hendricks, of Elberton, Ga.,
joined the Confederate forces in 1861, was
in nearly every important battle of the
rebellion and declares that no Union sol
dier was either killed or wounded by hiim,
as he always fired in the air. He believed
war to 'be wrong from every standpoint,
and held that legalized killing was no bet
ter'than ordinary murder. It was entirely
from patriotic motives that he answered
the call for troops to fight the North.
He-ndrieks says he ds willing to join a vol
unteer regiment against the Spaniards, (but
would carefully avoid taking life df sent
to the front.
Instead of calling 40,000 men under arms
to enforce the peace in Italy because of
bread riots, the Italian government would
be better engaged df it should spend the
money used in .paying soldiers for aiding
the hungry and starving.
The salary of the regimental colonel in
the United States army now is $4,500 and
the lieutenant-colonel $4,000 .per year,
while the salary of the (brigadier-general
is $5,500. (Major-general’s office has a sal
ary of $7,500 attached.
Acting under Blanco’s orders the port
officers of Havana have destroyed the
wreck of the 'Maine with dynamite. This
is Spain's .first and only naval victory, ob
serves the 'Birmingham News.
The “ringsters and fixers" will meet
their Manila in June, observes the Rome
Tribune. This is the first admission of
defeat that we have yet seen in an Atkin
son organ.
Those people who complain that the
newspapers spell 'Manila with one 1 should
remember that Dewey knocked a little 1
out of Manila a few days ago.
Nitrogen Traps.
Wo can draw upon the stock of nitropen
in tho atmosphere by means of sunlight
acting upon and vitalizing leguminous
crops, such as elover, vetches and peas.
All of these can be grown as "between
crops, so us Dot to iiJtcrfcrti with tho reg
ular crops. Clovers can bo sown In tho
Btulddo of small grain or even with the
grain seed. \ etches and peas can be sown
in standing corn at the last cultivation.
Iho selection of a crop to be used as a
nitrogen trap depends largely upon the
locality, soil and system of rotation. For
states south of the Ohio and Potomac riv
ers, the cowpea, crimson clover and sand
vetch are the three most satisfactory. For
more northern states, red clover, Canada
pea and winter vetch promise most.
In general any legume known to thrive
upon the soil will be satisfactory as a ni
trogen trap. When such a legume is once
found and adopted, it should be continued
year after year, as these crops never give
the best results until they have been
grown upon the same field for several sea
sons—the longer the better. Rye, turnips
and other nonlcguminous crops which are
sometimes turned under are of no value as
nitrogen gatherers. All the legumes
named, except sand vetch, make valuable
fodder, and their use ns fodder does not
detrait from their value as lortilizers, if
fed upon the iarm and the resulting ma
nure returned to the land. For soils too
sandy to produce good clover or winter
vetch blue r,:;>.l white lupines ai>d sand
vetch are recow men tied for all but the
coldest parts ot the United States. The
latter throe tire worthless as fodder.—Cor.

Feeding Pct Doga.
In small families there is often a good
deal of complaint that there are no scraps
left over from tho meals to feed tho dog.
To purchase regularly the biscuits that
; como ready prepared becomes after awhile
a financial tax that may bo severely felt
by those who have but littlo means and
must make that little go a great way.
With a bit of good judgment and care
one may provide for this important branch
of the family at email expense. After the
soup is served there is almost always a re
siduum at tho bottom of the pot. Put this
in a kettle and keep it in a cool place until
a considerable quantity of scraps and left
i over soup accumulates. Pour into this
any surplus milk, sweet or sour, that may
I be on hand and place the kettle on tho
I stove lo boil, stirring it frequently, that it
may not. burn. Then stir in until it is as
1 thick as it can be handled some ground
fond, such as is pn pared lor farm animals
and sold at feed stores. This feed has a
quantity of coarse oats in it. and should be
sifted through an ordinary Hour sifter
before it is stirred into tho soup. Remove
the kettle from the lire and when partly
cool add one teaspooniul of soda and two
teaspoonfuis of baking powder for every
tour quarts of the batter. It may then bo
rolled out into biscuits or dropped from a
spoon upon greased puns. Bake the cakes
until quite brown in a very hot oven. If
packed in a dry place, they will keep in
definitely.— Now York Ixxtger.
