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.

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.

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. To iho Savannah Press, Augusta News, Macon News and Columbus Ledger, greet ing: Tin? Herald gets into your class this afternoon, taking the same .telegraphic service of the Asociatcd (Press that you do. Here’s looking at you, esteemed contcm pories.—Albany (Herald. And you will foe given a cordial welcome, Brother ijfcln tosh. We have always thought you were 100 gooil a newspaper man to be in the other class. 'At any rate, you 'have shown wisdom in deciding to give the people the nc.ws on the day it happens. This is what they want, and we .predict for the Herald greater popularity and prosperity than it has ever before enjoyed. 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.

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. Not Exactly a Substitute. In the course of a morning call on the Rev. Dr. Fourthly tho Rev.
