Baying at the Moon.
The strange, and It seems to us, absurd
wall that comes from Colonel Caudler's
home paper, the Gainesville Eagle, rela
tive to me praise that has been bestowed
upon the Atlanta Constitution tor its part
in the recent gubernatorial campaign, is
iu exeel able taste, even if there were any
Justification for womplaint on the part oi
Colonel Candler and bis friends.
iWe have no idea that the Ga nesville
Eagle represents Colonel Candler in this
matter, and we know it will not be up
held by any true trieud of the next gov
ernor. Tile part played by the Constitu
tion in tlie gubernatorial campaign is a
mutter ot record, and as the leading news
paper supporter of the successful candi
date, it is clearly entitled to all the praise
that has been bestowed upon it. Ju accept
ing Hie many eompllmwuts that were paid
It the Constitution in no wise minimized
the popularity of the gentleman whose
cause it so strongly espoused, and we have
too much onlldence in Colonel Candler’s
good sense .im, Ingh-mlndeduess to believe
that he is in any way jealous or resentful
of the praise accord'J the Constitute) l.
On the contrary, we a v c convinced that
Colonel Caudier fu! / apreciates thi Hut
that the Constitution contributed immeas
urably to his popularity and to his success,
and tor hlui->e'f or a:s friends to refuse
to admit the fact would be base ingrati
tude Indeed. It is idle to underostima"'
the influence of a great daily like the Con
stitution or to undervalue its support.
True, a newspaper cannot always have its
own way about things, ami the Constitu
tion, like all other newspapers, has utter
ly failed, at times, to bring the publieto its
way of thinking. The most notable instance
iu theConstltution's history was the defeat
of its candidate, General Evans, four years
ugo and the public has never ceased to
regret its mistake in refusing to do
as tlie Constitution wished. It is ab
surd to deny, however, that the Constitu
tion is and lias always been the most pow
erful newspaper in Georgia, pernaps, the
most potent factor in Georgia polities. Nor
can it lie shown where the Constitution has
abused this power. On the contrary, it is
usually with the people and, therefore, the
people are with the Constitution.
But tlie thing that disgusts us most with
the Gainesville paper's wail is shat the
Eagle, of all Georgia newspapers, should
he the one that attempts to disparage the
efforls of and take credit from another. We
were forcibly impressed with the fact
throughout the recent campaign that if
all tlie other Candler papers had rendered
him such support as was accorded him by
his home paper, he would, indeed, have
had a single-handed light against a com
bine at one time considered almost invin
cible. We doubt if there is a weekly pa
per in the state favorable to Colonel Cand
ler that did not render him more active and
valuable service than the Eagle. But from
our knowledge of the gentleman's popular
ity at home, wo would almost have sus
pected the Eagle of “neutrality ' —of tae
Macon Telegraph brand.
It is doubly absurd, therefor?, for the
Eagle to scream at this stage of the game.
Tt might almost seem that the Eagle re
grets the Constitution's support of Colo
nel Candler. Fortunately, however, it re
mained silent until it was all over —even
the shouting.
Altogether the Eagle’s scream reminds
us of the dog baying at the moo l. What

The fiscal year ending the 30th of the
present month will make a record un
approached in the past. The total exports
of merchandise for the eleven months
ended May 31. were valued at $1,136,455,-
618,.while the imports amounted to $563,-
596.5 S1 —leaving an enormous excess of ex
ports of $571,889,037. The excess has been
largely Increased by the exports of broml
. stuft's, while the imports have been cur
tailed by the Dingley tariff and latterly by
the war.
k
Some Facts About Our Navy.
Someone who evideutlv takes us for an
encyclopedia or a war atlas writes to get
some detailed information concerning the
United States navy. We were under the
impression that everything had been
printed about the navy that was worth
printing, but as our eorrespoadent seems
to want something for ready reference, we
take pleasure in giving it as follows:
At the begiuniug of this year the United
States had in service twelve ships desig
nated as “first rate," including four first
class and two second-class battleships;
sixteen second rate ships, mostly protect
ed cruisers and double-turreted monitors; '
forty third rate ships, including * unpro
tected cruisers, monitors, gunboats and
dispatch i>oats. and seven fourth rate ves
sels, including the dynamite cruiser Ve
suvius, gunboats and transports. There
were also seven torpedo boats, not includ
ing a still larger number building. Os
government tugs there were twelve. There
were six sailing ships and five receiving
ships. Besides these there were five.first
class battleships under construction of
which the Kearsarge asd Kentucky have
since been launched, and five other ships
under construction, and a half dozen ships,
classed as unserviaeable. This makes the
number of ships in service at the begin
ning of the year 105. Since then one bat
tleship, the Maine, has been blown up.
The government has acquired by purchase
the New Orleans, Buffalo, Harvard and
Yale, cruisers, and numerous yachts and
other craft for use as despatch boats, be
sides transports and other boats for the
use in some capacity in connection with
the navy. We shall also soon have Cer
vera’s ships if their commander does not
destroy them.
And now Spain wants a peace cabinet.
One never knows how to please those Span

B©t It. _ „
Should Hold a Post Mortem.
Ob Wednesday next the chosen repre
sentatives of the Democrats of Georgia ;
will meet in Atlanta to enter up the ver
dict of the people in condemnation of ring
politics an<3 peanut politicians. To our
mind, the next state convention rather
marks a new era in Georgia politics. It
certainly means a readjustment of things
political iu this state, and even tne most *
casual observer can see that the people i
are on top.
All this is the Result, we think, of over
doing the tiling. For years past the ring
tailed, ring-streaked politicians have been
in coiinoi. They have had things their
own way. They controll.-d everybody and .
everything in sight. They became intox- j
lea ted with power, and they gave them
eelves up to excesses. The servants be
come masters and they took possession of
the premises. They ransacked the state
and divided the spoils among themselves
in open defiance of the people.
T hen came a revolt. '1 he day of reckon
ing was at hand. The people rose up in
their might and drove the usurpers out.
Ho intense was their indignation that they
would not even listen to the plea ot really
good men, because the latter were tainted
with ling associations. Thus has their
righteous verdict been rendered and thus
will it be recorded next Wednesday.
In the meantime, it is riot out of place
to suggest to the ringsters that if they
doubt the meaning of this verdict they can
hold an autopsy. Just try a post-mortem
examination on Bill Atkinson and see
what did it. If they don’t find that per
sonal politic, political trades, office
swapping, court-house methods and trick
ery of every shade and color did it. we are
willing to canonize the whole crowd, and
lot it go at that.
Just let them disect what remains of
the Spencer-Bob combine, and see what
did it. They will find that the personal
popularity of one man alone did not cause
the stampede that left these political
twins mashed into jelly on the field. It
will not even require close examination to
reveal the deadly “germ'ucquired by too
close association with the ringsters, which
left them powerless to withstand the
shock when once the people were set
moving.
And if the friends of the ringsters are
insisted with the faint hope that there is
any political life left in them, let them
“bellow-s" themselves in an effort to blow
life into the corpse. Then they will dis
cover that the men who have committed
political suicide, so to speak, have made
a clean job of it —the only clean thing they
have done in years.
Its a good thing for lOolonel Can Her that
his "home paper," didn’t break loose dur
ing the campaign. But then every great
man has some fool fi lends
Promotes Temperance.
Preachers and temperance people have
been making a fight on the army “can
teens,” and their attempt to have ttie
“canteens” closed has brought out some
remarks from prominent army officers
which should put tlie temperance people
to thinking.
•Not only do the statements of these of
ficers justify the canteen system, but they
emphasize another important fact to which
The News has often called attention and
which should commend itself to all those
who desirp to secure a practical way to
promote temperance.
Major C. ,S. 'Mills, who is in Atlanta for
the purpose of mustering the Third regi
ment into service, is a strictly temperance
man and makes no personal use of the
canteen, but from experience he says it is
the best thing for the army, and he also
points out in an interview in the Atlanta
Journal, some other facts of great impor
tance. 'He says:
“The ministers are making a serious
mistake,” “and both they and the pub
lic ought to be informed about the prac
tical workings of the canteen system. The
fact is that it is the best plan which has
been devised to promote temperance in
army. I have seen it tried and know ex
actly what I am talking about. From tlie
facts which I have observed, the truth of
this statement will fully appear.
“To begin with, nothing stronger than
beer, or light wine, is sold under the can
teen system. Practically it is nothing but
beer. Light wine is kept for the officers
who desire it. 'Beer contains from 4*4 to 6
per cent, of alcohol and whisky contains
about 30 per cent. Where beer is on sale
at the canteen, throe-fourths of the men
will be satisfied with that and seek noth
ing stronger. Where there >s no beer, they
go for the mean whisky that is sold by
blind tigers. Blind tigers invariably sur
round a camp t»hat has no canteen system.
It always has been so and always will be.
ft is folly to say that you can absolutely
stop men from drinking liquor if they want
it. The problem In the army is the same
problem you have in cities. You can’t
stop drinking, but you can regulate it. and
the more effectual the regulation the
hearer you are to a solution of the prob
lem.”
This is sense. It offers a practical solu
tion of the temperance problem; not only
for the army, but for the entire country.
The more light beverages are used and the
easier it is to get them, the less whisky
will be drawn. We confidently believe a
majority of temperance workers will come
to this conclusion sooner or later, and
theTi we will see less drunkenness in the
country. Educate the people to drink beer
and wine, make whisky a drug sold only
in drug stores as morphine and opium are,
and the liquor problem will soon solve
itself.
The Savannah Morning News speaks
truthfully when it says it looks as if Geor
gia were doing more than her share in
providing volunteers for the army and
navy. Under the first call, says the News,
she promptly furnished the two regiments
of infantry for which she was asked, and
also a company of artillery. Under the
second call for volunteers she will furnish
another regiment of infantry. But the
foregoing are not all she will furnish. l\
very large part of Colonel Ray’s immune
regiment is composed of Georgians and
there are several companies of negro mili
tia which will be mustered into the ser
vice very soon, in all probability. In all,
Geongia will, by the time that full re
sponse is made to the second call, have
furnished fully a regiment more than has
been required of her.
Eight European nations, says the New
Aork Times, possess colonies greater than
themselves in extent of territory, and four
of them—Great Britain. France. Holland
and Portugal—have more inhabitants in
their outlying possessions than they have
at home. Though Great Britain's little
fragment of Europe contains Jess than
121,000 square miles and lodges otjiy 40,-
000.000 people, that country governs
000,000 square miles of colonial land and
makes laws for 322,000.000 persons.
John Temple Graves has been suggested !
for chancellor at Athens. Nobody could

the News and Sun. His language from the

THE NEW YORK YOUTH.
Story of * ProroDlnx Hoy, » Srhooltesehvt
ami an Escaped pog.
A drawing teachei iu the upper re
gum* of the borough of Mhuhamau tells
me of a curious instance of what she
calls the crescent freshness of the metro
politan youth. Tommy was the most, in
corrigible pupil in that particular room,
making the half hour spent there daily
one of mingled doubt and anguish oi
spirit to the drawing teacher, lhe other
day Tommy was evidently engaged in
some new form of mischief. liis draw
ing pad lay upon the desk before him
and his hands wore hovering over it,
uow swooping down at one side of the
paper, now at the other, as if oorralling
some unwilling ant or other insect seek
ing to escape.
“Tommy,” said the drawing teacher
suddenly and sharply, “what are you
doing?”
“Nothin,” was Tommy’s instant re
ply. Then ho added, “Nothin but keep
in this ’ere dawg from runnin away.”
“What dog?” queried the drawing
teacher. “I see no dog. What do you
mean'”
“Course ye don’t see no dawg,” said
Tommy, ceasing his gymnastics under
her sharp glance and straightening
up. “Yer too far away.” The other
scholars were all attention by this time,
which was precisely what Tommy
wanted, and he assumed a look of un
smiling innocence as he continued, “I
orored a runnin dawg, not a stnudin
still one, an 1 was a-headiu ’im oil’ so’s
he wouldn’t ruu off th’ tablet an git on
th’ floor. ”
The other children laughed uproari
ously at this, whereupon Tommy sur
veyed them with such an assumption of
surprised indignation that their mirth
was redoubled. The teacher was now
genuinely angry. She was a matter ol
fact young woman to whom normal
sch*l methods were both law and gos
pel, and here was a flagrant care of
downright falsehood that must bo ex
posed as an awful example to the entire
grade of pupils. She walked slowly and
firmly down the aisle and picked up
Tommy’s tablet. The white sheet was
unsullied hy a single mark of any kind.
“Tommy,” she said sternly, exhibit
ing the sheet to the pupils, “there isn’t,
a dog or anything else here.”
“Course there isn’t, ” said the una
bashed Tommy. “Whu’d I tell ye? Ye
made me so* up, an ho got away. He
was a greyhound, he was.’’-—Town
