The Judgeship Race.
On June 23rd the Democrats of Geongiu
will choose time Justices of the supreme
court. There are three Judges to be elect
ed, and al present there are four candi
dates. The old Judges are standing for
renomination, and Judge G. F. Gober if
after one of the places. Voters in the
primary must vote specifically for one for
one place -one for chief Justice, one for
full term and one for uuexjpirerl 'term. Thu
is Hu- ruling of Chairman dußignon. Tbtf
race for the full term seems to 'have nar
rowed down between Judge Fish an.l
Judge Gober
Judge Gutter is making an active flight
for the place, and this fact has brought
'forth an attempt at criticism from those
organs which opixt.se him.
Without intending to favor Judge Gober
as against Judge Fish, but imerely to do
Justice to one of the candidates, we cannot.
•i‘« 'that these criticisms are well founded.
It must be Itbrne in mind that the people
or Georgia have chosen to cleet their su
preme count Judges by popular vote. The
News opposed this plan, 'but now that it
is hr el'fec't we cannot consistently blame
a candidate for going before the people)
who are to elect him. We cannot censure
liim for tnaikiug as strong a tight as pas
sible. provided lie conducts his campaign
in a dignified manner. He must, neces
sarily. go out among the people, as other
candidates do if he hopes to secure thei?
support.
ft is manifestly a much easier matter
for an incumbent to conduct his campaign
on a different plain, for the reason that he
has a considerable advantage te begin
with. His opponent, however, must, nec
essarily, g< t the attention of the people,
must go among them and win their friend
ship. Otherwise the men who are in
would stay in, and those who are out
would stay out.
'Die people of Georgia have 'brought this
thing upon themselves. They ■ have in
sisted on electing their judges by -popular
vote. Candidates for judgeships, there
fore. cannot be blamed for going directly'
before 'the people with their claims.
While it might not be besoming in a
present member of the supreme bench to
canvas the state, and it is certainly not so
necessary to his success, it is obviously
the only way in whieh his opponent can
proceed.
Unless Camara can make a two-bagger,
Cervcra will never have his base for the
home plate, observes an individual who
can see this game of war from only one
standpoint.
That Yellow Journal Fight.
To the average mind the tight between
the New York Journal and the World will
appear to lie a ease of "dog eat dog.” But
nevertheless, one of the dogs seems to
have the other in a hole.
The Journal recently convicted the
World of theft by printing a fake dispatch,
whieh the World ’eagerly snapped up. In
the dispatch was a name which when re
versed read "We pilfer the news.” thus
convicting the World out of its own mouth.
Hut Editor Hearst is not yet done with
the \\ orld. A few days ago he presented
to the government his steam yacht Buc
chaueei. Immediately a corporal and
three soldiers were sent on board the
Bucchaneer at Tampa. This was in con
summation of the 'transfer of 'the boat
from Mr. Hearst’s private ownership to
the service of the government. It seems
that the New York World did not know
this \t all events it printed a story from
Tampa to the effect that a guard had been
placed on the boat to prevent her from
leaving the harbor with government plans
which it was supposed the correspondents
on board wished to telegraph to 'Mr.
(Hearst s paper. The telegram printed in
the World, which involves a charge of
treason against Mr. Hearst and his paper
and correspondents, has been made the
basis of a suit for libel against the World
in which the damages are placed at $500.-
000.
Governor Xtkinson might organize a
brigade of political immuues. 'His crowd
cannot hold oft ice iigain.
The Two Invasions.
There is no longer any doubt as tq, the
invasion of Cuba and Porto Rico. Both
undertakings are being carried out as
rapidly as possible, and by tomorrow night
it is expected that an army of 27.000 men
under General Shafter, will land at San
tiago. and the Spanish regulars there wnl
■be given a Mstc of the fighting qualities
of the "Yankee pigs."
The landing of the army will probably
•be made at Guantanamo bay, as there is
no apparent reason for shelling the earth
works there and landing the marine®, ex
cept tq prepare for the reception of Shaf
ter’s forces.
Meanwhile, an army of 12.004) men. un _
der General Coppinger, will embark at
Jacksonville. Fla., and go direct to Porto
Rico. Probably enough warships will ac
company it to complete the work begun
by Admiral Sampson when he shelled the
forts on San Juan harbor, and cover the
landing of the army.

The army is moving, and news from
the front will be more plentiful and- of

ten days.
One good effect of the Leiter wheat deal
Is that there are now 43,000,000 acres ready
for the harvest, or about 3,500,000 more
than last year.
The War and Business.
Notwithstanding the war and the mis- '
givings of philosophers as to the final re- ,
suits upon social and political conditions '
in thhs country, there is ample evidence j
that the imediate prospects for good bus- i
loess are quite rosy.
Here in Middle Georgia we find ample
encouragement in the fruit crop, which is '
to bring nearly a million of Northern dol
lars into this Motion. Hut aside from local
causes are others of a general nature that
are encouraging to a degree. In the first
place- the farmers of the United States
have been doing well for some time past.
They have supplied the home markets and
have gone into the markets of the world
with products of all kinds and brought
back an enormous amount of money The
agricultural exports for the fiscal year,
which ends this month are the greatest
ever known, and will
There has never been anything like it,
and it stands to reason that there ‘Will be
more general prosperity.
The past year has'been one of profit to the
farmer.-: of the country. It has placed thou
sands of them on sound financial footing.
Mortgages have been released by the
wholesale and the farmers generally are in
(better condition today than they have been
for many years. This situation will ena
ble them to make needed improvements
and pave the way to greater achievements
in the commercial world.
And there are still other causes for en
couragement. These are ndted by the St.
Louis Republic in the following, which re
flects the general view:
‘Mercantile agency reports indicate that
spring business for the year has, with few
exceptions, met expectations, ■ bank clear
ings having increased during the week and
railway earnings have been exceptionally
large.
The agricultural department at Wash
ington reports an increase tn tne country's
wheat acreage over last y ar of three and
a half million acres, with tile condition
everywhere unprecedented, that all cereal
crops are advanced further al this season
than at the corresponding time for many
years past; that the live stock business
seldom had more brilliant prospects. In
brief, the agricultural interests of the
country are in better condition now than
for a decade or more.
"The exceptionally fine situation in the
busknesß world and the rare condition pt
the producing sections of the country pre
sent a conjunction of unusual importance.
The producers of wealth and the directors
of the wealth producing forces are being
brought together this year as lias not been
the case during the life of this generation
otf Americans. The excitements of the war
have not demoralized the the machinery of
commerce, have not weakened the ener
gies of business, have not lessened the
working force of the nation. Unless un
precedented climatic changes occur within
the next two months, there is ever reason
to (believe that production this year will
be greater in all departments of activity
than has ever been recorded in this coun
try.
“Usually heavy productions means low
prices. Not so at present. Prices are on
the upgrade all along the line. 'Manufac
tures and agricultural products are being
contracted for at a higher level of prices
than has been reached in many years at
this season. Avenues of employment are
opening in every direction. The ranks of
the idle are thinning out. Money rates are
getting lower except foj purely speculative
purposes.
“With these evidences of renewed bus
iness activity and prospects in mind, it is
certain that the people of the United
States are going to reap a substantial har
vest of prosperity this year as well as re
joice in a victory at war won in a cause
the noblest that any nation has ever es
poused.”
1 he Ladrone Islands.
The latest reports Involving possible ac
quisition of Spanish possessions is to the
effect that the United States will lakh the
Ladrone islands. These islands lie about
fifteen degrees north of the equator, and
in latitude 145 east from Greenwich. They
are 3,500 miles west of Hawaii, 1,500 miles
east of the Phillipines, and would consti
tute if in our possession, a naval base
which, together with Hawaii and Manila
bay, would enable us to command a series
of coaling stations stretching directly
across the Pacific ocean from San Francis
co to China.
There are twenty islands in the Ladrone
Group, but only five are inhabited. These
islands, like the Phillipines, were discover
ered by Magellan in 1521. The five thaj
are inhabited are very productive, and
■the capital town, San Ignacio de Agana,
on the island of Guahan, is well stocked
with naval supplies. It is reported that
the port is the best one between Honolulu
and the Philipines. If this is true it is
too important to be overlooked by us.
Verily, verily, the war is over when Ma
con hoys can be marched to Chickamauga
to take orders from General Wilson.
The Key to Success.
Don't stop advertising because of the
summer lull in business. That makes it
worse. Keeping everlastingly at it is the
key to success. More than that, you must
advertise in a paper whieh the buying
public read. An advertisemeit in The
News fills this requirement perfectly. It
goes into the homes of more people in
Macon than any other Macon daily. It is
read by more people. It is read by the
women of the house hold as well as by the
men.
The News’ circulation has the two ele
ments whieh are necessary to make it a
valuable advertising medium—quality and
quantity. It circulates among the people
who buy; it circulatese more largely in
Macon than all other Georgia dailies taken
together.
The proposed tax of 10 cents a pound on
imports of tea calls attention of the public
to the enormous tea trade whieh ibis
country does with the great tea countries.
According to figures of New York im
porters, the United States will this ye: g
import 100,000,000 pounds. Os this amount
Japan will sell is 43,000,000. Chin. 27,000.-
000, Formosa 10,000,000 and India and
Ceylon 12,000.000. These imports will allow
one and one-quarter pounds of tea to each
man. woman and child in the United
States. ,
The dispatches concerning the fight at
Guantanamo speak of the Spanish forces
lurking in the "chapparal.” The word is
a familiar one on our Mexican'border, and
was pretty well known all over the United
States during the Mexican war. It is a
Spanish term meaning exactly what Amer
icans call “brush.” That is a dense un
dergrowth of bushes and young trees. The
word will probably become a very com
mon one in news from the army in Cuba.
At any rate.■ the South seems to be fur
nishing more than her share of the heroes
in the war with Spain. Assistant Surgeon
Gibbs, of the marines, killed at Guanta
namo. He, also, is a Southern man. Thus
we have Bagley and Gibbs, Southern men;
Hobson, the hero, not killed, but his name
immortalized, also a Southern man.
The Senate seems to have suddenly dis
covered that therghs a good deal of lobby

The Methodises might at least pray for
the reformation of E. B. StaNman.

CURIOUS TEMPERANCE LAW.
The One Enforced In Pomona, Cal., Said
to Be Unique.
The growth of temperance sentiment in
Bout hern California in the past few years
is marvelous, and today, outride of Los
Angeles, all local elections have prohibi
tion and high L en-;’ as their sole Issues.
There are no parry lines between Repub
licans, Democrats and Populists, and voters
who have been arrayed against one anoth
er in the fall oi general elections join
handsand array themseiv,against former
allies on the question of issuing saloon li
censes fur a large nun (>r ol having total
prohibition of the local liquor business.
Some of the local campaigns are very heat
ed and warm the communities much more
than general political ones. At the last
iocal election in Pomona the high license
party won after a lively campaign <x four
weeks. The city had been a strict probibi
tion town for two years.
The. law now in force is probably the
most curious In the world. Matthew Dunk
ley. president of the great temperance
league of Great Britain, says it is a re
markable law and worthy of study. It is
known on the I'mtiflc coast as the Pomona
saloon law. In its preparation the ideas of
dozens of eminent loaders in temperance
work wore considered. The purpose was
to provide a drinking place, pure and sim
ple, for inoE who must drink, to put those
places under the most strict surveillance
and at the same rime to keep women’s
and children's livelihoods from going over
a ba".
The Pomona saloon law provides that
there may he but two drinking places
there -a community of over fi,UUO popula
tion
The ualoon or barroom must be on a
principal there up h fare of the city. It
must be on the first or ground floor, and
its front mu.,t. be one-half of plain glass
and flush with the sidewalk. No frosted,
palnt.id or stained gb.iss may he used in
the windows or doors, and there must be
■io screens whatever. The view from th<
street to the bar must always be free ami
unobstructed, so that a person on the
street may at any time soew’ho are within
the saloon.
Then, also, there can be no rear or side
doors to the salqon, no cellar or basement,
no adjunct, wing, side room or alcove.
The saloon or barroom must boa single
rectangular er square, apartment. There
must be no allurements there other than
drink .itself. To that, end thera may be
but one seat, bench or chair in saloon.
That must be behind the bar and for the
sole use of the saloon keeper or bartender.
Barrels or casks must be separated from
the room by a railing so that they may no!
furnish seats or leaning conveniences for
patrons of the saloon. No pictures, ad
vertlscments or show cards may be on the
walls, and nothing to eat may be served,
given away or sold there, not oven crack
ers or pretzels. All games are strictly pro
hibited in tl'.e saloons, ami newspapers,
periodicals or books are tabooed along
with any talde or shelf upon which they
might be placed. In a word, the Pomona
barroom or saloon is simply a drinking
place, surrounded by all the publicity pas
sible.—Boston Transcript.
