If half that has been published about Camp (’hickam.iuga be true that portion of the United States army now encamped there is a disgrace to the nation, and it is an affront to Georgia for the United States government to dump such hoodlums ou Georgia soil. If the charges are not true, then there should Ito a full explanation and retrac tion, for probably no army ever stood charged with so many flagrant, vulgar and indecent offenses against society. Yesterday’s Constitution, for instance, contains a story from a staff correspondent giving incidents which go to show that Cripple Creek in its palmiest days might he com idereil a Chautauqua gathering com pared with Chieainauga. The Constitution's correspondent re lates how an entire company was out drill ing, a few days ago, with every soldier stark naked. The men were all half drunk, it is said, and the hot weather, com bined with the whisky, caused them to make This unusual drill. Unfortunately several ladies were compelled to witness the brutal performance of the undraped warriors, says the Constitution. This un seemly conduct was not even punished, and it was said that it was not reported to headquarters. At another time, so it is said, several hundred of the troops captured a negro wo man, and after compelling her to undress, drilled her up and down the midway, while the soldiers looked on and reviewed the undress parade. This startling occurrence lhas been eclipsed several times by orgies too revolting to be mentioned. The offi cers, it is alleged, are certainly to a great extent to blame for the conduct of the men, but it is not entirely their fault. Some of the officers try to keep order, but wiih a lot of young hoodlums <it is impos sible to maintain peace, says the corres pondent. it would be Impossible to give in detail an account of the ho• riffle outrages that are being perpetrated against decency here, further says the correspondent. Some of the troops have no sense of self respect, and their respect for their officers has been deadened by the laxity of the rules around camp. These would be serious charges against the management and morals of a convict camp, and would immediately call for an investigation anil a remedy, should such a state of affairs be discovered in any camp ■in this state. It is almost impossible to believe, therefore, that soldiers defending the honor of their country could so far for get themselves and the cause for which they have enlisted as to become hoodlums and bums of the most miserable character. It is to be hoped that the situation is ex aggerated. If not, the whole crowd should ■be court mart ialed and shot for conduct un becoming an American hog. Thu Atlanta Journal pays Congressman Bartlett this deserved compliment: ••Congressman Bartlett received yester day a high and deserved tribute to his fidelity and efficiency as the representative of the Sixth Georgia district in a unani mous nomination for another term. He has been watchful of the interests of his district and has triven close attention 'to all his duties at Washington. Mr. Bart- Jett’s record in congress is such as tn make him very strong in his district, and we are not surprised that the Democrats of that district have unanimously called upon him to serve them «galn.” Germany’s Attitude, The intimation comes from German sources that if Americans do not begin to accept everything that Kaiser Bill says as gospel truth, the latter may yet decide to have the game as well as the name; may in fact, take a hand in the Phillipioes, in stead of >;>ai: taining ueutrali y origi nally declared. Numerous stories have been sent out declaring that Germany was preparing to take an active part in the settlement of the (Phillipines question, but these stories, set afloat from European centers, have been vigorously denied, both from Washington and Berlin. The presence of German warships at Ma nila doubtless furnished the prime basis for these reports. It is insisted by the Berlin papers that these ships are there only for surveillance of German interests and not to prevent the landing of American troops. Our state department likewise gives out the statement rhat it has been officiary advised that the reports that Germany would make an issue in the Phillipines is unfounded. In discussing the German Empire’s at titude a th? matter an exchange correctly asserts that Emperor William is an erratic sort of ruler, with the reputation of doing surprising things, but it is not probable that he will attempt to tread upon the toes of Uncle Sam. especially while Hng land :s standing ready to aid this country. No doubt he would vigorously object to any other European power acquiring the Phil lipines and thus securing an advantage over Germany in Asiatic waters, but he could find no justifiable ground for Ger man interference as matters stand at the present. At any rate the United tSates does not care a snap whether Emperor William is pleased or displeased with the situation in the Phillipini s. Admiral Dewey will see to it that German interests are accorded equal protection with those of other for eign nations, but beyond that no favors will be shown Germany. However, there is good reason to believe that the German government has no intention of meddling with our affairs in the .Phillipines, and cer tainly not without the co-operation of the European powers, which is rendered im possible at this time by the existing jeal ousies among them. The New York Journal of Commerce says the revolution in Cuba has reduced our trade with the island $69,000,000 a year. Revenue Bill Condensed.

If you wish to win success you must be persistent. It is a distinguishing trait of alt who have honestly won success. Per sistency in advertising makes the success ful merchant. The spasmodic advertiser rarely wins success. Constancy of pur pose and persistency of effort rarely ever fail. Some merchants do not know how to present their business to the public, others are indifferent and careless about doing so. For the first there is some hope, but failure is sure to come to the second, for there is no record in commercial history where the careless and indifferent busines man has ever won success. The shrewd man wants as much for his money as possiole, whether it is goods or circulation that he buys. Some merchants are satisfied with their advertisements be ing in any kind of newspaper; others are more particular and place their cards where 'they know the majority of people will see them. Lincoln's Modest Request. While sons of former or present great men are being given military commissions and placed in positions where the duties are nominal and the honororum substan tial, the following modest letter, written General Grant by President Lincoln, will be read with especial interest: Executive Mansion, Wasnlngton, Jan. 18, 1865. —'Lieutenant General Grant: Please read and answer this letter as though I were not president, but only a friend. My son, now in his 22d year, having graduated at Harvard, wishes to see something of the war before it ends. I do not wish to put him in the ranks, nor yet to give him a commission, to which those who have al ready served long are better qualified to hold. Could he, without embarrassment to you, or detriment to the service, go into your military family with some nominal rank, I and not the public, furnishing his necessary means? If not, say so without the least hesitation, because I am anxious and as deeply interested that you shall not be encumbered as you are yourself. Yours truly, A. Lincoln. Like Hobson at School. The following from a Macon gentleman to the New York Herald is of general in terest: To the Editor of the Herald — It is stated in your issue of the 12th in the correspondence from Green sooro, Ala., referring to Lieutenant Hobson —“He is the only Southern hoy since the war who has been graduated at the head of his class at Annapolis.” This, I think, is a mistake, and if I am not in error two Georgia boys have been graduated from there with the highest honors —Alban Hodgson, of Athens, Ga., in the seventies, and iDußose, o.f Spar ta, Ga.. class of ’97. Hodgson, I believe, attained the highest mark ever reached at the naval academy. Let Congress prepare to build the Nica raguan Canal and a navy surpassing the finest in the world ami there will be other Deweys and Hobsons when we n?el them. Hugh Vernon Washington. Macon, Ga., June 15, 1898. Elsewhere in today’s News is a card from Judge Gober answering the charges made against him by Judge Fish. The News has no interest in either of these candidates, but it is obliged to admit that Judge Go ber effectually disposes of the charges made against him. The scene of active warfare is likely to shift pretty soon. There are already five avowed candidates for governor in South Carolina, all elaming to be iDemocrats, and at leas't as many more waiting and want ing to be.

New York, June 20 —The Hawaiian is lands their commerce, finance, production and population from the subject of a series of taibles which will appear in the next number of the "Summary of Finance and Commerce,” issued by the bureau of sta tistics, says the Washington correspond ent of the Tribune. From these it appears that the United States since the recipro city treaty of 1876, has had a large share of the commerce of these islands. Prior to 1876 the annual sales of the United States to the Hawaiian islands had never, save in two exceptional cases, reached $1,000,000. With 1877, however, the 1,000,- 000 line was permanently passed, and since that date American exports to the islands have steadily grown, passing the $2,000,000 line in 1879, exceeding $3,000,000 in 1883, $4,000,000 in 1890. Passing the $5,000,000 line in 1891, and promising to reach nearly $6,000,000 this year Os the total imports by the Hawaiian in 1875 a little over one-third iwas from-the United States, iln 1876 the reciprocity treaty went into operation, and in 1877 the United States one-half of the imports into Hawaiian islands, which then amounted to $2,500,000. By 1880 the imports had in creased to over $3,500,000 of which over $2,000,000 worth came from the United 'Slates. In 1881 they were over $4,500,000, of which more than $3,000,000 were from the United States; in 1890, $6,962,000, of which $4,711,000 come from the United States, and in 1896, $6,063,000, of which about $4,000,000 came from the United States. Os the exports from the Hawaiian is lands the United States has also had the lions share since the reciprocity treaty of IS7G. In 1875 only about 57 per cent of the exports from the Hawaiian islands came to the United States. In 1877, the year following the treaty over 90 per cent came to the United States, and has since continued in about the same proportion. Os the $200,(TOO,000 worth of exports from the Hawaiian islands since the reciprocity treaty of 1876 more than $180,000,000 worth have come to the United States, and of the $100,000,000 worth of imports into the Ha waiian islands during that time about $70,000,000 worth were from the United States. Sugar, of course appears as the chief article of exportation from the islands, though rice has been for years an item of considerable value, and of late coffee, pine apples and bananas have taken important rank in the exportations of the islands. Os the $15,500,000 worth of exports in 1896, almost $15,000,000 worth was sugar, though in addition to this there were exported over 5,000,000 pounds of rice, 225,00,]) pounds of coffee, 126,000 bunches of ba nanas and 147,000 pineapples. The in crease in sugar and coffee has been rapidly in the last few years, coffee increasing from 5,300,000 pounds in 1887 to 22,255,000 pounds in 1896, and sugar from 212,000,000 pounds in 1887 to 443,000,000 pounds in 1896. The tendency in the last twenty years has apparently (been to a reduction in the number of articles produced. In 1876 the list of exported articles included, besides sugar and rice, wool, tallow, mo lasses, peanuts, hides, 'goat skins, sheep skins, whale oil, whalebone, ivory, salt, sperm oil and many other articles, but now sugar, rice, coffee, bananas and pineap ples are the chief exports, though the total value in 1896 was six times that of 1876, when the articles were much more numer ous. The imports as above indicated are mostly from the United States, those of 1876 being divided among the great na tions as follows: The United States. $5,464,000; Great Britain. $755,000; China, $299,000; Japan, $276,000; Germany, $148,000; Australia, $114,000. The largest items in the list of imports are groceries and provisions, $520,885; ma chinery, $343,105; fertilizers, $332; Cotton goods, $311,891; clothing, $292,559; hard ware and agricultuarl implements, $278,- 267; grain and feed, $273,753; lumber, $255,242; tobacco, $194,836; flour, $196,000; building materials, $102,639, and besides these, scores of articles ranging in value from SIOO,OOO to downward. The population at the latest census was in round numbers, 109.000, of which 31,000 were Mawaiians, 24,000 Japanese, 24,000 Chinese, 15.000 'Portuguese, 5,200 Amer icans, 2,250 British, and 1,430 Germans. The receipts of the government are about $2,000,000 annually of which about one third is gathered by tariff taxes, one-third by internal taxation and bne’-third from miscellaneous sources, the expenditures being slightly less than the receipts. The commerce of the United States with the islands extends over more than half a century one of the tables which will be presented showing imports from them as early as J 826 and exports to them as early as 1837. though the latter seem to have been only occasional prior to 1853 when they amounted to $4,406, and by 1863 had increased to $548,730. In 1873 they were $672,191. passing the $1,000,000 line in 1877 after the enactment of the reciprocity treaty: while the imports from the islands will this year be the highest on record, despite the general reduction of imports from other parts of the world, the total for the year being likely to exceed $15,000,- 000 against $13,687,000 last year and sll,- 757,000 in the preceding year. ca. s T o n i a .
