Value of Philippine Trade.
In .1 special report on the I’hillipine Is
lands, < ou.-uil'ii.-i.-ar F. Williams gives some
interesting ligur.s, showing the value of
•their Ir.uh , an important matter in view
of the possibility ot the I'liillipilies becom
ing a permanent po-session ot the United
•States.
11. say that during the quarter ending
dleeember 31. 1897, there were exported
fropi these island to the United States
and Great Hrisain 216,898 bales of hemp
(280 pound-, per bale,) of which 137,792
ball ■: went to the I nited Stales and Only
78,y>6 bales to Gr.tit Britain. During the
year 1891 there was an increase in the ex
port of nemp from lite Pbillipjnes to wn
toiiniit.il Europe of 111,711 bales; ho Aus
tralia, 2.192 hales; to China. 28 hales; to
Japan, 2,628 bales, and to the United
States 132,896 bale:; a total increase of
158,485 bales; while to Great. Britain there
was a de. iea.se of 22,348 bales.
'rims, of increased shipments from the
J’hillipines, those to the United States
•were bi I per cent greater than to all other
countries lonYbined.
Os the total exportation of hemp from
the I'liilipims for the ten years ended
1897, amounting to (>,528,965 bales (915,055
•tons,) 41 per cent came to the United
States.
During the same years the -Philipine Is
lands exported to the United States and
to Europ. 1,582.904 tons of sugar, of whi'ch
875,150 ton: came to the United States,
666,391 tons 'to Great Britain and 41,302
tons went I.> continental Europe, showing
that of the total exports more than 55
pt r cent came to the United States.
At the current values in New York of
hemp (4 cents per pound) and of raw su
gar. (3% cents per pound,) the exports of
these two products alone from these is-
lands to tlie United States during the ten
years under review amounted to 89,263,722,
or an average of nearly 8,926,372 per year.
Data as'to cigars, tobacco, copra, woods,
hides? shells, indigo, eotTee, etc., are not
flow obtainable, but a conservative esti
mate would so raise the above figures as
to show United States imports from these
islands about $1,01)0,000 per month.
In 1897 the value of imports from th.
Uni'ted 'Stale; was $91,597, divided as fol
lows: Cotton 'manufacture, $2,164; oils,
$45,908; varnish. $2,239; all other. $44,286.
It should lie noted, observes the Balti
more .Manufacturers' Record, that our
trade is much larger, (especially in the
items of exports to the islands) than is
Indicated by the above figures. Largo
quantities of provisions (flour, canned
goods, etc.,) are sent to .Hong Kong or
other ports for transhipment, and are cred
ited to those ports, instead of to Manila.
And now the suggestion Is made that
(Dewey be given the postiuastehship at Ma
nila.
An Object Lesson.
As The Ne.ws has often remarked, the
people want to read today’s news today.
In exciting tunes like the present this fact
is forcibly demonstrated, and it requires
no argument to prove it. Rut it is equally
true at all times. And it is the advantage
it enjoys in being able to give the people
today's news today, and that too. at one
half what other papers cost, that easily I
accounts for the wonderful growth of The
News’ circulation and the decided lead
which it maintains over all opponents in
the field. When such a paper as The
News can be bought for 10 cents a week
every family in the community should take
it—and most of them do. Only the won
derful improvement of newspaper 'facilities
within the last few years makes possible
the splendid war service which we now are
giving our readers. Not only are the re
ports wonderfully complete, but they are
almost simHltaneous with the events de
scribed. The wires flash the news of -bat
tles into our office while the guns are still
hot and smoking and the Mergenthalers
enable us to present the results in type
before the reverberations of clashing
■bombardments have died away. It is an
object lesson in the superiority of the af
ternoon paper for presenting the news of
the hour, tjuch as the dullest observer must
recognize.
It is reported that Joseph Leiter has re
tired from the wheat market after making
a fortune of $3,500,000.
Our Poet Lariat.
At last the poet laureate of America has,
been corraled. He hails from lowa ami
his name is John Adams. We print the
following lines from his paper merely to
show that there are worse things than
war. As a key to the situation, it should
be explained that the poet refers to a
cemetery in his native town, wherein some
day, if he gets his deserts, he will- be
buried: ;
Sacred Is the cemetery
AX here our loved ones we must bury;
And oth< r loved ones, us also.
For we ouselves must also go.
Welcome the ladies' interest here.
And may it list from year to year.
So mothers bring yofir up
To share life's sweet and titter cup.
Home, church and cemetery are
Duties for which they should well care. -
It should be kept real neat and clean
And he a home, calm and serene.
Our friends to us are very dear.
Because their souls were very near;
Those souls took flight, but their friends
here
Should hold the remains, very dear.
The graves do not our friends contain
For only the remains remain.
The Birmingham News notes that a let
ter from Raleigh. N. C., the home of
Worth Bagley, the ensign killed on the
lAVmslow. contains the following: "His
death holds the same relation to the
American-Spanish war as did that of his
uncle, Major Bagley, The latter was the
first man to lose his life in the four years'
struggle, having been shot at Bethel
Church just previous to the hattie of Bull
Run. The same glorious assertion may
be made of Worth Bagley, as the first to
sacrifice himself in a war which may over
top the one in which his relative perished."
The County Schools.
The News very reluctantly publisher a
few days ago a communication from a citi
zen of the county criticising the manage
ment of the county schools, some n TeS s
bring laid on the fact that the tea.-hers
plhces arc- nearly all given to ladies and
that there is a special superintendent em
ployed to look after the county -rhools.
If any critici m Herein order. it could
properly be directed only against
Board of Education, which body alo«. i
r<-l>onsible for the management com
plaint d of. but w< fail to sc , and -,c
think almost everyone will agree with u- I
that then- is the slighter ground for crit
icising the management of Bibb's public
schools. indeed-, as w. have often ob
served, Bibb county', schools, both in the
City ami county, are models in every re
spect, and are so regarded by the leading
eductors of the state. ln fact, it has long
been our boast, and the claim i« well
oundtd, that we have the best conducted
public s.hool systim i n the state—for
whi«h we an- indebted not only to the
Board of Education, but to Superin
tendents \bhott and Kilpatrick as well a<
every individual teacher, all of whom ex
hibit a pride in their work that is highly
commendable.
As for the complaint that teachers
places are nearly all given to women, we
think a majority of the -tax payers and
parents are entirely aiDfied with tl<
policy. In our own opinion It is the jrropcr
one, and no les-: commendable than ill of
the other acts of the Board of Education.
In the fitst place it is a fl. Id which women
ar< peculiarly adapted to fill, and with
almost every other calling monopolized by
men. It is but right and just that this one
should be monopolized hy women,
cially so .when such satisfactory results
are secured.
Nor do we think objection to the em
ployment of a superintendent for the
county schools is any b.ttir founded On
the contrary, results have demonrtratetd
that Professor Kilpatrick’s service has
b-en of untold value to-the county in se
em nig a higher degree of cm bet-
ter discipline 'and a general improvement
in the character and usefulness of .the
■schools. As one directly interest, fl in the
country schools-, wo can bear testimony to
the above facts, and ca n add our own com
mendation of the, pre.-:, nt management to
that of almost every other citizen of the
county.
Stevens a Winner.
Senator Stevens’ home paper, the Daw- I
son News, gives some interesting informa
tion about the progress of that gentleman's
race for commissioner of agriculture. It
says:
After spending Wednesday and Thttr-i
--day at home, Hon. O. 13. Stevens left Fr:
day morning on another tour in tne inter
est of his candidacy for commissioner of
tgricuiture.
■Mr. s-t/.-v, ns is making i very quiet
though effective canvass, and reports from
every section of the state indicate that he
is making a winning race. In fact, his
friends are enthusiastic in the belief that
his nomination is now certain, and that
his majority in the convention will be an
overwhelming one. All of South Georgia
is practically for him, and there is ato
doubt that he has made destructive inroads
upon what might be termed Colonel Nes
bitt's territory. Indeed, the support which
vlr. S'tevens is receiving throughout. North
Georgia is not only gratifying to him and
his friends, but is even greater than was
1 expected,
"There is but little doubt that Senator
Stevens will succeed Commissioner Nes
bitt.
Says the Darien Gazette:
.lion. O. B. Stevens, of Dawson, spent
Saturday in the city. Senator Stevens is
a candidate for commissioner of .agricult
ure, and was here for the purpose of get
ting ac<|uainted with the people. It was his
first visit to Darien, and he expressed him
self as being charmed with this section of
the old commonwealth. While here he met
a great many voters, and if there was any
doubt about the county being for him, his
visit certainly removed it."
The total earnings of 110 lines of rail
road in the United States for the month of
■April agrgegated $13,095,324, a gain over
April, 1897, of $5,787,000, or 15.5 per cent.
This is the largest, increase for any month
during the present year, and with one ex
ception, that of iNovember lakt year, was
the heaviest reported since the setting in
of the late depression.
Buffalo Bill has been appointed chief of
scouts on General Miles’ staff, and has
placed four hundred of his horses in the
service of the government to be used by
the scouts in tracking the enemy.
The friends of Hon. Spencer Atkinson
are confident that he will be nominated on
June 6th.—Rome Tribune.

NO ROOM FOR IT THFRE.
"How did your husband get cured of the
habit of walking in his sleep?”
“We moved into a flat.”—Chicago News.
“Bobby,” said the mother of a preco
cious 5-year old, “I see your little sister
has the small apple. Did you let her have
her choice as 1 told you to?” "Yes’m,” re
plied Bobby, “I told her she could have the
little one or none, and she took the little
one.”
"I don’t know,” muttered Fogg, as he
struggled through the bulletin-reading
. throng, 'as it is much a great thing after
all that so many of our people are able to
read."—Boston Transcript.

BECOME A MAN
This will interest those who have doctored with
“medical companies’! and “free prescrip
tion” fakes and electric belts, until they are thor
apughly disgusted. I am a well known
physician of Chicago and have made
nervous disorders and all diseases
peculiar to men a special study for
20 years. I haven’t a remedy that will
do wonders in a few days, but with pa
tience and the correct use of my treat
ment I will guarantee to MAKE A MAN OF
YOU IN TIME. For a short time I will send a full
month’s treatment of my “NERVE-WEEDS” with
some valuable instructions, for #I.OO, or six
boxes (a full course) for #5.00. I HAVE CURED
THOUSANDS AND CilN CURE YOU. If
suffering from a chronic disease of any nature write
to me in confidence at once. All medicines sent in
plain wrappers.
