Now that the .slate primaries are only a few days oil .and the gubernatorial man agers ire shaping the ir, plans for election day, proof accunrtnulatex that The News made no mistake when it alluded to Ber ner and Atkin. >n as the allied candidates. Tlieie is no longer any doubt of the fact thai they have joined forces or will do so June full. In proof of this is the aaiblish ed tai< mi in that in those* counties where IBcrncr is stronger than Atkinson, the lat ter's strength will lie thrown to Berner, and vice versa. As, for insatnee, here in (Bibb, win re \ikinson men are few and far bet wi i n, and where there are not enough ißerner men to speak of, there will be no \tklnson li legates, and the latter's friends will be expected to support Berner. Arrangements for a similar plan of ac tion on June 6th seems to be under way in ■other counties in the state, and there is no longer any doubt of the fact that the allied forces are working in perfect harmony and with a thorough understanding. Hut today's Constitution points out the fact that tin* scheme has its objections. It might work better but for the people can not be traded around first to one and then to anolhe.r with absolute certainty. In trying to throw the Atkinson men to Ber ner in the latter's strongest counties some of the Atkinson voters are liable to drop into the Candler ranks, says Hie Consti tution. \nd in attempting to transfer 'the 'Berner voters to the Atkinson column in the latter's strongest counties there would be sure losses which would go to Colonel Candler. Judge Satn Atkinson, w'ho Is tuanageing his hrolu tr's campaign, went over to the state house yesterday, says the Consti tution, and had a conference with I.VIr. Douglass Glessner, secretary of the pris on commission, editor of the Griffin News and 'chief pusher for Senator Berner. They were asked if an Atkinson ticket would be run in Spalding county or a Berner ticket in Coweta county, and both said they did not know. Mr. Glessner said that he was not managing the Berner campaign and could not state what his plans were. Judge At kinson remarked that he did not know what the Berner people were going to do. The Constituion further says: Ihe chief advisers of Messrs. Berner and Atkinson wear a worried look these days. It is thought that they realize the situation and that there is no chance to beat Colonel Candler. Then they are hear ing from people about the scheme to trade them. That proposition is making a stir out through the state. It is a hard prob lem to solve, for tfte Candler forces are standing firm, while Berner and Atkinson divide the opposition vote. No matter which way it is handled it is going to helip Colonel Candler. The politicians have been greatly disappointed in South Geor gia. When the campaign was originally mapped out it was assumed that Atkinson would carry South Georgia and Senator (Berner would sweep the middle section. But Colonel Candler has the First' con gressional district practically solid with a great list of coutwtes in the Eleventh, Sec-, ond, Third, Fourth and Sixth districts. iAll the other districts are his beyond question. In the Fourth district Colonel Candler seems certain to beat both his opponents two to one. Judge Atkinson's support is al most altogether confined to the extreme southeastern counties, while Senaotr Ber ner w ill not get many outside his . own immediate section. And this is what wor ries the oposition.” The Telegraph waxes violent in declaring ■that the people should throw off the ring sters. The Telegraph need have no fear— this is just what the people are doing. And they are going'to throw off the very ring sters whose cause the Telegraph has sup ported in its characteristic way. Objects of the War. The sole object of the war wi(h Spain, as stated at the outset, officially and otherwise, was to relieve the immediate condition of the people of Cuba, and ulti mately to give them their political free dom. But as the war progresses and the scene of action broadens, now taking in those islands of the far-away Orient, the Philip pines. as wa ll as Porto Hico, while as yet Cuba, which we went to war to liberate, remains still in the hands of the Span iards. it would seem that we began to lose track of the real object of the war: that the government itself is losing track of it. have not kept well in mind the fact that this is not a war purely or primarily of conquest or glory, but a war for human ity and the establishment of political free dom. We did not enter upon the war for revenge, notwitshtanding the cry "Re member the Maine." h as a sloßan ln the conflict. Me took higher ground. It’is important we should maintain it Liberation of Cuba and relief of the re concenttados were among the original causes of the war. hut the’ invasion of ( üba Tias not yet begun, and the recon centrados ar< fas: disappearing bv starva tion and impat . nee at this situation is evit j.i n. i. manifested, A question often asked is this: "What is the use of a long war against Spain if. by the time we con quer h. r. the majority of the people whom we int* tided to help are dead*” Indeed, does it not ippear cruelly incon sistent that-we should attempt to succor these picxide by m< ans of a blockade in-' tended to cut off their supplies, thus ren dering their condition all the more helpless and pitiful’ But it is. perhaps, in keep ing with the eternal fitness of things that a war primarily wrong should be attended by so many blunders. A writer in the June Atlantic gives to Edward Bellamy, who died a few days ago. the honor of having stirred the American people by hit, book. "Looking Backward.” as much as any other writer since the civil war. Undoubtedly the Utopian eco nomic system therein elaborately laid out met with favor in the minds of thousands of his readers and countless other, were interested and got an appreciation of so ciological conditions and the difficulties now contended .with that they would not otherwise have received. An Encouraging Outlook. While the war hie, no doubt, tended to disturb business conditions somewhat, there Is no reason why the'people of this particular section should be discourage over the outlook. On the contrary, there is every reason to believe that there will be an almost immediate improvement in business con ditions so far as this Immediate section i» •concerned, and we have to look no further than the peach belt of Georgia, of which Macon is tin center, to’find the cause. There is no longer any doubt as to the condition of the crops in this section, and it is already certain that a million dollars of northern money will be brought into the towns and country around 'Ma on. There is a prospect that at least 1,000 carloaiis of peaches will be shipped from the Fort Valley section of the Georgia Cen tral railroad alone. .As'the Georgia sup ply is the flrkt of eastern growth to reach market and as the culture is in the hand.- of most experienced growers, and the most approved methods are employed, there is no doubt as to the results. There is every reason, therefore, that money will be plen tifuj and trade good throughout this sec tion during the summer. Why We Are Laughed At. No wonder the military, powers of the world laugh at our efforts to raise an army. No wonder they i.~ igine we are weak as a nation, when, to light a nation like Spain, we must 'issue a call for fully 200,000 troops. in .fact recruit an entire army, instead <rf maintaining a standing army of sufficient size to meet any ordi nary exigency c*f this kind. 'But it is still less a wonder that they ridicule us when they read the list of the president's ap pointments. Indeed, the appended list is sufficient to disgust even the most patri otic in our own eounrty. Think of respon sible military positions being given out to chaps like these, and for no.better reason than is apparent: K Two sons of ex-President Grant. A son of ex-President Hayes. A son of ex-President Harrison. A grandson of ex-Presidi nt Grant. A son of General John A. Logan. A son of hte Astors. A son of Senator Foraker. A son of Senator .Sewell. A son of Senator Gray. Two ex-Senator Calvin Brice. IA son of ex-Mayor Strong, of New- York. A son of ex-'Mayor Hewett, of New York. A son of Vice President -Hobart’s broth er. A brother of Vanderbilt’s son-in-law. A son of Secretary Alger. A son of'ex-Consul General John C. New. Speaking of cruisers and battleships, the Chicago Record clears up a subject that has clouded the public mind to some ex tent. A cruiser is a vessel which travels at a high speed, carrying a comparatively light equipment ’of guns, but immensely valuable as a destroyer of commerce and for swift work in intercepting an enemy where he least expects to find opposition. It can get away from an antagonist who is too strong for it and van defend itself in case of an engagement with inferior war ships. IA battleship differs from a cruiser in that it is designed not for quick work in maneuvering, but for stability and of fensive work against a powerful antago nist. -It is a floating fort and naachtine shop combined. According to the best au thorities those which are known as “first class batleships” are vessels having a dis placement of over (1,000 tons and not more than twelve years old. Second-class bat tleships must be not more than twenty years old or of Uss than 5,060 tons dis placement. The surgeons who have been making ex aminations o-f the members of the militia volunteers will make reports that will be apt to discourage, though it may not ex tinguish, the Hie bicycle habit, and partic ularly tlie use of low handle bars, says the Washington correspondent of the Chicago Record. It is said at the medical depart ment of the army that a great number of the volunteers who have been rejected for physical disability are bicycle riders who, by that violent exercise, have developed diseases of the heart and the spine which Unfit them for exposure or endurance. The troubles are said to be confined almost en tirely to riders who use low handle hars and lean forward in the saddle. This po sition not only induces curvature of the spine and other diseases in that -part of the anatomy, but. causes the other organs to crowd the heart out of its place and pro duce irritation, which ultimately becomes chronic. Says the Americus Herald: “'Many seem to have been of the opinion that the Tel egraph was just against Democracy. That is a mistate. It seems not only Democ racy that the old sheet is fighting but everyone and everything connected with the world we live in. It kicks against th? pure Democracy of thfi state. It kicks against the Democracy of the country, and at the same time lit abuses the present administration for its inefficiency in the present struggle. The Telegraph seems to want one thing, the defeat of Allen D. Candler, and, sad for it, it will not get its wish. When Foraker was governor of Ohio and there was talk of returning*the captured Confederate flags, he declared “no rebel flags shall be returned while I am gover nor.” A few- days since, without any so licitation or sugestion from onyOne, he said: “I think it would be a good thing at this time to return the 'Confederate flags iff our brethren in the Routh want them back.” Time and conditions have softened the fire alarm man's heart and sobered his judgment, remarks an exchange. ~ .' In volunteering for war and in accept ing the colonelcy of a regiment from his state ex-Candidate Bryan furnishes a no table exception to the objections against civilian apointments, says the New York •World. His action will do a great deal to popularize the service with the class of young men whom the country wants to see in the ranks. It is not generally known that Admiral Cervera. the comnffthder of he mysterious Spanish fleet which is now causing the navy department so much concern, was formerly a naval attache in Washington. He represented the government of Spain in that city about fifteen years ago. says the Washington correspondent of the Chi cago Tribune. The Camilla correspondent of the At lanta Constitution says: “Reliable infor mation received from adjoining qpurft’es shows that Southwest Georgia will go al most solidly for the “One-eyed Plow Boy of Pigeon Roost.” Candler will undoubt edly carry Mitchell. Miller, Decatur. Thomas, Dougherty, Colquitt and Brooks." The time was when the ill will toward ' us manifested by Continental Europe' would have offended American sensitiveness very rudely, but we have attained to a con sciousness of independent strength which now makes us indifferent to such foreign sentiment, declares the New York Sun. Nothing jo dampens the ardor of a sol dier and dulls the edge of his ambition as the realization that promotion can be gain ed through political influence rather than by personal fitness or valorous deeds, sen sibly remarks the New York Hfrald. Some historian has discovered that Lord Nelson also had considerable trouble in finding the Spanish and French fleets, which he destroyed at Trafalgar. The Atlanta Commercial suspects that the President will appoint Judson Lyons brigadier general from Georgia. * j. I is in order for the Rome Tribune to write another editorial on "Why Atkinson ie a winner.” The allied candidates• will not carry twenty counties out of the 137.

In Camp., Lakeland, Fla., May 26—A Spanish spy is supposed to have visited - this place, and for two days, it is believed, he was taking liberal notes while he wa j being entertained as a newspaper man. j He drifted into this place several days ago I and gave the name of -Corbett. He said he was a, newspaper man from* the East, scut here to report the doings at the camps. He was granted every facility for get ting interesting bits of news, and for two days he nosed about, incessantly asking questions leading up to the strength of the army mobilized at this -point and paints in and about Tampa. So persistent was he in his questions re garding the forces, that a suspicion was raised in the minds of the officers, and one evening he was asked to show some of the copy he was sending to his paper. He finally presented a few pages of poorly-written matter Later in the even ing he was caught at some kind of figur ing. He said nothing, but later in the night ho disappeared, and with him went a pair of field glasses and an officer’s army pis tol. He pawned the field glasses at Tampa and offered the pistol for sale, hut refused to part with it when offered less than his price. Chief of Police Burke, of Tampa, was appealed to, and, with Lieutenant Lyons, has begun a search.
