An Investment.
Good adv, rti.-ini' cannot be called an
(xpiu.-i . loi- it i- only* an investment, just
a.- you pI.H e your money in a glove stock,
or a line of furnit kings, and you get your
nionej out of it Just as surely, and with
possibly .i letter margin on the invest
nient, than mil of Hie other line of mer
chandise. Good advertising brings you
only pleasing results, for in addition to
immediate results in the way of sales, it
builds up a strong feeling of confidence,
ami it give your store a forward move
ment on Hie road to prosperity and per
mant nt success that it would otherwise
require a span of years covering the ordi
nary life, it simplifies your efforts —-it ac
compli h<s for you at moderate cost what
would requiri y< ars of effort and ceaseless
toil to accomplish.
This is a matter worth thinking over
during times like the present. .And it is
equally important that you consider the
value of the mediums offered you. If you
are mainly aft., .. few customers in some
remote Georgia town, The News will not
be of much help to you. But if you want
to reach the people in the nearby towns —
tin people who really do their trading in
Macon -The News is the best traveling
salesman that you can send (after this bus
iness. It will reach more people at less
cost to yuo than any other salesman you
san use.
If yon and this is the trade, after all,
that our merchants depend on most large
ly- wiant to reach the home-folks, the peo
ple in (Macon and suburbs; if you want to
get into the homes, to talk bargains to the
wife, the daughters, the sons and fathers,
and that, too, at a time when they have
the time and inclination to listen to you,
then The News is of more value to you
than i.iny oilier medium. Fur the wimple
r< son that it reaches the greatest number
of tin sc readers and that too of all class
es. This is the sort of investment you
make when you spend your money for
space in The News.
It will be recalled that when the presi
dent refund to recognize their government
the Cuban Junta plainly stated that they
would fight the American as well as the
Spanish troops if we entered (’Uba without
recognizing Cuba Libre. It is now a vexed
question, observes the New Orleans States,
whether there ever existed an insurgent
“army” at all or whether they have dis
appeared as suddenly ami mysteriously A
Clan Alpine vanished from Fitz James’
view on the mountain side.
Sheep for Georgia.
In Georgia, according to an investigation
made by the secretary of agriculture of
that slate, there is a natural pasturage foe
6,000,000 in territory where no artificial
shelter and no storage of winter fodder are
necessary. Commenting upon this the
Wool Record says:
‘‘The soil, the water, the almost endless
sunshine from season to season in these
Georgian highlands, and above all things,
the wonderful bennuda grass, which sup
plies an unfailing food supply from Jan
uary 1 to December 31 for wool bearing an
imals. should make this region the home
of perhaps the largest sheep-growing in
terests on the whole American continents
All the elements have here combined to
invite the industry of wool culture, and a
curtailment of the cotton crop, such as is
now favored by the capitalized supporters
of that staple, should, wthin a very short
time, result in the stocking of these
Georgia ranges with innumerable flocks of
sheep."

ample opportunity will be given them to
reflect upon their action.
Spain's Plans of War.
The belief seems to be general that it is
Spain’s-int. ntion to prolong the war with
out meeting the forces or fleets of the
United States in decisive ‘battle. Spain is
to tight in her usual manner—striking here
and there, destroying property and lives,
am! hoping and intriguing for intervention
on the part of the powers.
It is pointed out that when Minister Polo
was civen his passports he established
himself m Canada and at once inaugurated
a spy system which is now being carried
on in all parts of the country. It is claim
ed before Polo left for Spain he declared
it wtis his country’s intention to prolong
the war until fall, that hy doing so much
American property would be destroyed and
Spain vould avoid any great battles; that
the summer's war would cost the United
States J “c0.0p0.000 an d n s pa j n would
be cont. nt to give up Cuba and end the
"ar, jf still unt'ihle to receive the inter
vention of Europe.
Or. Gltling, the inventer of the gun
bearing his name, and who. by the way
is a North Carolinian, was an inventor
before he was a doctor. A fearful expe
rience through which he went caused him
to stmjy medicine, in 1846. while on his
way from Pittsburg to Cincinnati he con
tracted smallpox. and to add to his suf
fering, the boat on which he was traveling
was frozen in the ice for thirteen days,
and during that time he lay sick upon the
boat without medical attention. He after
ward studied medicine and got his diplo
ma but although called “doctor.”* what
refutation he has is not connected with the
are of healing.
A little more than two years ago the
United States came near going to war with
its best friend. Great Britain, because the
latter was about to annex a few acres of
Venezuela s land. Today the Venezuelans
are openly sympathizing with Spain and
manifesting their hostility to the United
States.
Now for Business.
Today's dispatches prove conclusively
that Cerv.*xa’s fleet is bottled up in Sian- I
tiago harbor, with Schley watching the '
bole. The government has been waiting
for positive information on this point, '
hence the seeming inactivity in that quar
ter. Now, however, that the government
is in possession of positive knowledge as
to Cervera, it may be expected that a i
military expedition will be dispatched to ;
Santiago at once so as to imprison Cervera
between the land and sea forces of the ;
United States, and thereby make his cap- i
ture not only certain, but attended with i
as little loss of life as possible.
A movement on Santiago would mean a
subsequent movement on Havana, or, in
other words, invasion of Cuba at or near
the former port with Havana as the ulti
mate destination of our army. If success
ful in these movt ments, as we should (be,
the result may be a speedy termination of
the war.
In either event, we may reasonably ex
pect this government’s plans to shape very
rapidly, now that Cervera has been posi
tively located. Unless the Spanish admiral
prefers to commit suicide, • and sacrifice
his fleet in one supreme effort against
Schley he will be likely to remain at
Santiago until our army of invasion can
surround and help to capture him. What
ever may be his plan of action, the result
will, most probably, be all the same to the
United States. Another victory is almost
in sight. The only point in doubt is
whether Cervera will choose to be cap
tured or annihilated.
The following from Father McKinnon,
of San Francisco, breathes a spirit of pa
triotism that undoubtedly animates the
Catholic church of this country “In every
country patriotism is a sacred duty of
every citizen. In America it is a duty
thrice sacred; it is a solemn duty of con
science, a solemn duty to God. Religion
and patriotism are one and inseparable. It
is impossible for one to exist without the
other. The church has no civil or polit
ical authority, power, jurisdictloon or pre
eminence whatever in these United States,
and never claimed to have any. In tem
poral matters American Catholics recog
nize no power as sovereign but the consti
tution of the United Stages ami their reli
gious principles render them but more re
solved to discharge their duties as citi
zens.”
Says the Sparta Ishrnaelite: “O. B.
Stevens, of Terrell, is a candidate for
Commissioner of Agriculture against the
present incumbent, who has been eight
years in the office. While the Ishrnaelite
is making no fight »n Nesbitt it thinks
that 'there ought to boa change, and so it
is for Stevens.”
In an article on the subject of the 10,000
immune* called into service the Philadel
phia Record protests against that clause
of the bill which provides for the appoint
ment by the president of the 450 or 500
officers of the forces, which is certain to
degenerate into a political “pull.”
Unless your name has been placed on
the registration books since January 1, of
the present year, you will not be allowed
to vote in the June primary. Attend to
this matter at once.
An exchange rises to remark that if
Admiral 'Dewey could see some of the
“poetry” which has written on him. he
would be extremely chLiry about winning
another victory.
Statistics show that there are 91,225 pro
fessions! beggars in Spain, of which 39,279
are males and 51,946 are females. The
total population is in round numbers 18,-
009,000.
“Now let us have some protests from the
Shah of Persia and the Khan of Beer.”
suggests the Memphis Commercial-Appeal.
You must register before the night of
'June 3. Last year’s registration will not
answer for the gubernatorial primary.
If Schley hao idorvora ha:tl.>3 up in San
tiago he should send for Dewey. The lat
ter would soon make a clean job of it.
Regiser at once. Last year’s registra
tion does not qualify you for participation
in the June primary.
Shoot, Schley, or give up your gun.
A Won of Bruins.
From the Jasper County' News.
When Mr. Stevens, during the early part
of the year, yielded to the importunate so
licitation of friends, and made his modest
but trenchant announcement for the office
of secretary of agriculture, there were
many who were confident of the successful
issue of his campaign. Later develop
ments have put the seal of verity on the
predictions.
Mr. Nesbitt stands for re-election, but
the people generally object to life tenures
in office, think that, for the ordinary man,
eight years in office are sufficient to vi
tiate one’s usefulness. We do not speak
of other and possibly more persuasive ob
jections to Mr. Nesbitt’s retention. (Mr.
•Stevens is a man of brains, cutlure and
swavity of manner, ever adding to his
large catalogue of friends. The knowing
ones forecast for him an overwhelming
majority’.

HIS LAST SUNDAY.
Mr. Arthur Wood Presided at Organ in First
Presbyterian Church.
Yesterday was the last Sunday on which
Mr. Arthur Wood will act as organist at
the First Presbyterian church and a spe
cial program had been prepared for the oc
casion. The resignation of Mr. Wood will
be a great loss to the church, and the
deepest regret is expressed by the congre
gation. His nesignation is regarded in the
light of a victory by those *who regard
themselves as the most orthodox and are
certainly the most old-fashioned of the
Prebyterians and who were of the opinion
that Mr. Wood’s music was too sparkling
for a sober congregation. It is a fact, how
ever that the loss to the church will be
very great, as the music has been a strong
feature of the services for many years.

’ THE SOLDIER BOY'S LAMENT.
From the Louisville Times.
Backward, turn backward, O. Time, in
thy flight;
Feed me on gruel again Just for tonight.
1 am so weary of sole leather steak.
Petrified hardtack and vulcanized cake.
Coffee that’s slept in a watery bath.
Butter as strong as Goliath of Gath.
Weary of chewing what I can’t cat,
Chewing up rubber and calling it meat.
(Backward, turn backward, for weary I am.
Give me a whack at grandmother’s jam:
Let me drink milk that has never been
skimmed.
Let me eat -butter whose hair has beep
trimmed.
Give me once more a good old-fashioned
drunk,
lAnd a soft, old-time bugless bunk.
Let me once more have an old juicy pie,
And then I’ll be ready to surrender and
die. —Frank Waller Allen.
“Old Glory” was named in 1881 by an old
skipper, of Salem. Mass. It is in order
for someone to suggest a pension for his
family.
