Atkinson's Defense.
The News publishes < Is*-where an At
lanta ;iving what purports to
be an interview .with _ Governor Atkin
son, lint whii h l-« in n .ility a cart fully
prep.in'l defense ol the i ouise pursued by
him in calling out th< Georgia military for
the volunteer army.
Governor Atkinson's an.-wer Io the crit
ic, ti-in that iiavi been diieeted against
him fioni < vt ry side is, we are willing to
admit, nm t plan Ihh inditd Bill Atkin
son was alwiiy. pl.iuj-ibh . Hut it is Iby no
means convincing.
Governor Atkinson con utncs two col
umns of :'.|>ace in iii effort to explain why
he di organized the Georgia militia '.and
then reorganized it according to plans of
ills own. And yet it requires less than a
dozen lines to knock the props from under
his entire defense. In a word, if the gov
ernor of Georgia was right in ipursuing
such a course. then the governors of all
ithc otlnr states were wrong in rio-gan
izing Hie military organizations of their
respective stales as they already exited.
It is not true, as Governor Atkinson
claims, that there .was any radical differ
ence in the conditions existing in Georgia
and elsewhere. The only radical differ
ence was that Georgia had a governor who
was unable to sink politics even in -a time
of public peril, while Uie other states had
governors who, if not entirely perfect,
were ut hast far above such methods. In
(Kansas alone has anything even closely
approximating Georgia's case occurred
and it is generally accepted that the Kan
sas governor is more fool than knave.
‘No. Governor Atkinson simply made a
huge mistake when he attempted to dis
organize the Georgia militia for the pat
ronage involved and the opportunity that
It would give him to further the fortunes
of a few friends; and political heelers—
Captain (now Colonel) Oscar Brown, for
instance.
It is not enough to say that .the charac
ter of his appointees is an answer to all
criticism of the course adopted by the ex
ecutive. Although the appointees are, for
the most part, satisfactory, they are not
more so than the men whose positions they
have usurped would have been. Governor
Atkinson has not appointed better men
than were already at the head of the state
militia. Therefore to excuse' his action on
the ground that he has not .actually dis
graced the state .by making as Aid ap
pointments as he could have made without
going out of his own politi '.ii family is in
no sense a good ami valid reason for the
plan pursued.
The News was the first to call Govcrfltlr
lAtkinson’s action in question, and it sees
no reason to modify anything that it has
said in condemnation thereof. It is still
convinced that it was a .political move on
his part although it proved to lie a .boom
erang of the worst sort. As for his denial
of the charge well, he might, at least, (be
expected to deny it. But Governor Atkin
son has said a great many things (besides
his prayers since he entered the political
arena.
However. The News is fair enough to
give his explanation in full. It may satisfy
some people principally those few who
are still with him whether right or wrong.
The general public, however, will find in
it nothing to show such a shake-up was
more necessary in Georgia than elsewhere.
Catholics as Patriots.
While no such declaration was really
needed to prove their loyalty and patriot
ism, yet in view of the contemptible in
uendoes and the worse than cowardly at
tacks on the patriotism of Catholic Amer
icans made by a certain dark-lantern
order, the address issued by the Catholic
archbishops of the United States to the
clergy and laity of the church is a forcible
and dignified rebuke of those narrow-souls
who dared call the patriotism of these
Americans in question.
it is, of course, not intended as an an
swer to anything that has been said, tout
merely comes as an official expression,
which under the Catholic form of church
government is entirely in order and, in
effect. conclusive. While formally declar
ing the attitude of American Catholics in
this matter, it also brinjss out another fact
worthy ot note —the Catholic church holds
lose of country next to love of God.
This has often sheen demonstrated before.
• but it is forcibly demonstrated in the
struggle now gooing on between this coun
try and Spain. Although Spain is a Cath
olic country, there are almost as many
Catholics in the United States as in Spain.
They worship the same God. believe in the'
same doctrines, accept the same church
authority and yet they are as far apart
a * the poles where the issue that now di
vides their two countries is involved. In
Spain they are rushing into the army to
shed their last drop of blood on their coun
try s altar. In America they are enlisting
with no less willingness. Hundreds and
thousands of them have already joined the
army, ami if the present war proves to toe
of any consequence we may look for other
atholic patriots to shed lustre upon t'heir
country, as hundreds of others have done
in every important epoch of the republic.
It is, however, nothing strange that they
should do so. It is no more than they
should <lo. else they are not entitled to be
called Americans, it is no more than
hundreds of other riligious -faiths have done
and will do again. It is not to praise them
for their patriotism that we mention the
fact, but merely to show that, contrary to
the absurd charges of a certain secret or
der. the Catholic church teaches patriot
ism above all things— except, of course,
religion; and no church that is worthy of
the name makes any temporal affair para
mount to the soul’s salvation of love of
God.
To the Spanish Catholic the church says
“stand by our flag, fight the American to
the last ditch, if you must do it, for your
country’s sake.” To the American it says
“Do not hesitate; if your country needs
you, go to the front—take up arms against
the foe, whether he <be co-religionist or in
fidel.” And towards both the church as
sumes an attitude of strict neutrality and
for both its prayers are daily uttered.
Could anything be broader? Does it not.
indeed, prompt our admiration? Is it not
! a convincing answer to those who have
dared to call the American Catholic s pa
triotism in question? It would be strange
indeed, if a universal church did not a
times, find complications such as this be
tween its own children, but when Its car
dinal motto ' ’Xlod and country” it can
make no mistake.
Unde: >u h a -j item it w is possible to
give to the Con'*., r .'.e army two sm-h
heroes as Beauragard and ;-. minis, and to
the Union side Sh. ridan and Sherman, it
allowed the divine soul of a Father iiyi>;
to pour forth in defense of the form-1
while others of the same cloth said m/--<s i
for the sure SS of jhe Union trms v. 1
in both armies labored those saintiv -in
ters. who without prejudice or favor to i
either side, nursed the sick, eared for the- !
dying and often sacrificed the it own liv s ;
in the effort to alleviate the sufferings of
others.
And so it will fee again. Wherever God i
and country call them there you will find
them, whether priest, nun or laity. In I
this respect they in no way differ from ‘
their fellow citizens of other denomina- I
tons. As they are no more entitled to i
praise for their patriotism than are others, !
so also do they no more deserve to have !
»he:r patriotism called in question, And i
he who does go either Injures bistory, or I
controlled by dense ignorance or nreju- i
dice,
for such as these the address recently
issued by the archbishops may prove not
on a reve ’ a Gon >n this connection, but
also a lesson in patriotism. These word
in whatever country uttered, to whatever
flag they refer, contain the full essence of
patriotism—that patriotism which holds
country next to God;
We are not now engaged in a war of
section against swttion. or tat< again.-t
state, but we are uniud as one man
against a foreign tnemy and a common
foe. If, as wo are taught .by our holy
church, love of country is next to love of
God, a duty imposed on us bj .ill la.ws
human and divine, then it • our duty to
labor ami to pray foi the temporal and
spiritual well-being of the brave who an
battling for out bi loved country. Lit us
fiithtully beg tin God of (battles to crown
th.lr arms on land and sea with victors
and triumph, and to stay unnecessary
effusion of (blood and syndily to restore
peace to our (beloved land and people.”
There’s a Bit of Risk, You Know,
So far the war with Spam has been a
v< ry one .-id, ,i affair, ‘but today dispatches
bi mg the unwelcome news of disasters to
own forces, Which, though of no great
consequence, are nevertheless, calculated
to cause sorrow throughout the country.
Such has 'been our success so far that
■almost involuntarily many of our people
have come to regard casua'tiiics tb our
own navy and troops as something not
to be looked for. Already they have had
this feeling dispelled, and they are likely
to iiave still further reason to view the
situation seriously as the war proceeds.
‘it should be borne in mind that losses
on the American side are inevitable. It is
more than strange that they have not al
ready been greater. Never before have the
casualties in battle ‘been so unequal, so
that we have much to be thankful for and
nothing to complain of.
We may expect to suffer our full share
of losses before the war is closed. Per
haps even before Cuba is invaded or Porto
Rico taken. Already we have had a few,
as today s dispatches tell, but they should
not disturb us. For, as an English naval
officer once remarked, "We cannot expect
to do these things without a bit of risk,
you know."
Strange to say, the same year the Brit
ish. under Lord Albertuarle captured Ha
vana, another force of the same country
captured .Manila. Thus, history is likely
to reipeat itself. Speaking of it the Bos
ton transcript says: ".Manila has been once
captured from Spain. The English were
its captois, although they held it only for
a few months. It was in 1762, a few
weeks after the English capture of Hava
na. •Spain had been rash enough to side
with France in the war usually known in
this country as the French and Indian war.
(She was speedily punished for it.”
The invasion of Cuba has begun and
many believe that within thirty days after
the first expedition is landed the stars and
stripes will float over Cwba. It is under
stood that the attack on Havana will be
made from the? rear while the navy holds
the entrance to the harixir. It is believed
that two or three engagements between
the land forces will cause General Blanco
iO realize the hopelessness of the situation
and surrender his army.
Says the Pire County Journal: “O. B.
Stevens is a man whom the state of Geor
gia will take pleasure in honoring. The
people are clamoring for a change ■ the
agricultural department, and they recog
nize in Mr. Sti vens, the farmer and states
man, the man for the place. Mr. Stevens’
friends have brought him out because they
ar? not satisfied with Nesbitt’s administra
tion, and they are at work for him in all
parts of the state. He is a winner.”
All of the 20,000 regulars will he landed
in Cuba by Saturday morning. The thirty
or forty thousand volunteers will follow
as soon as they can ibe put upon the trans
iports. General (Miles -will take command
of the troops. -All the s-tate regiments
which have been ordered to Southern ports
can make up their minds that in less than
a week they will be on Cuba soil.
If the advice of ’the Democrats in Con
gress were followed the burden of the ex
pense of maintaining an army and navy in
this war would be so distributed that it
would no’t be a serious hardship upon any
class.
The latest from the front came from a
raw recruit from Polk county. Ga. If the
good people of Gcorgki, he says, will pre
sent Sampson with Bill Atkinson’s jaw
bone he can end this war in fifteen days.”
Madrid papers predict that "Spain will
win in the long run." They forget that we
have a bicycle corps attached to our army
with a guaranteed speed of one hunderd
miles per day in ease of emergency.
Richard Le Galliene recently praised
Walt Whitman very highly. This might
be called a tribute from a literary dude
to a literary tough, thinks the Memphis
'Commercial-Appeal.
Without intending, to disparage his
■bravery m the least or detract from the
glory of his victory at .Manila, -rt is never
theless evident that Dewey haff his rabbit
foot with him.
The Washington Post says: "That sober
second thought in France is doubtless
based on the fact that Paris is going to
hold an exposition.”
The average man is learning more about
geography these days than he ever knew
before.
