International Danger that Threatens.
M a political meeting in Yorktown,
X <’, Wednesday, Colonel Sciiumpert,
candidate tor governor, took occasion to
nrfer lo a letter that he 'had Just received
from his son at Chickamauga telling of
the humiliation put upon him because he
had refused to bold the horse of a negro
officer Amid loud cheering he declared
that the young man acted in obedience Ho
tli.it \nglo-iSaxon instinct that declined
to pro.-'Bute its manhood by becoming the
waiting man for any negro officer, how
ever high.
Every Southerner- and every decent
white unan in the country, as for that .mat
in will commend that young man, and
comb inn the system that made the insult
possible in the first place. It is becoming
more ami more evident every day that an
early peace is greatly to be de
sired for the good of our own country.
For, in time, this sort of thing iwould in
evitably dead to trouble. Indeed, the
South 'has already had more than enough
of it This war has (given the Northern
negrophih' frequent opportunity to thrust
himself and his idol ’into unpleasant con
tact with Southern people, and the result,
except where great patience was displayed,
has almost invariably been a clash.
Occasionally tihese affairs have drawn
others into them, and race riots have been
narrowly averted.
It is to be sincerely hoped, therefore,
that the war wild end ami the armies be
mustered out Imfore these unpleasant and
humiliating relations (become no longer
bearable. The South is as patriotic and as
loyal, as any part of this country, but
there is a limit to her endurance, and the
government need -not expect her sons to
hold horses for negro officers or to accept
as equals any member of that race, no
matter his rank or the
which r. quire it It is just simply against
their nature, and there is no power on
earth to change it.
The London National Review claims to
speak by authority when it says that when
our trouble with Spain began France pro
posed tlhad (Europe interfere and compel
us to leave the Cuban question alone, and
was backed by \ustrla. When approached,
Germany suggested that the co-operation
of England was necessary, but Mr. Balfour
Ju the absence of Lord Salisbury, refused,
and intimated that Great Britain might
be considered our ally. That ended the
matter.
England Wants It.
The dispatches indicate, though no re
affirmation of it was necessary, that Eng
land is tager to have the United States re
tain tlie Philippines, on the idea, of course,
that we will take a high ami liberal vieiw
of our mission (that is to say, allow other
nations to compete for the trade of .the
Islands on a somewhat equal footing.
It is evident that England dots not
relish the idea of our relinquishment of
the Philippines. Englishmen oannot
understand this sort of thing. He is an
imperialist by nature, a land grabber by
birth, breeding and education, and he sees
no sense in Cousin Jonathan throwing
away anything that he can possibly lay
claim to.
• onsequentdy England expresses much
anxiety, lest we throw away a good thing
and thereby place our English cousins
just where they were before tlhe beginning
of this war with Spain, so far as the
I hilippimss are concerned. In other iwords,
England would like to share in the benefit
that a change of ownership would bring.
But it is doubtful if Uncle Sam will be
villiuig to adopt such an unpromising
child, even were there no immediate com
plications .to be considered.
The courts have decided that a Boston
girl's foot is worth >IB.OOO. The decision
is made In a case where an iceman drop
lied a block of this commodity on a 'Bos
ton’s girl foot, crushing the (member. A
contemporary with particularly unfriendly
feeling for tlhe Windy City declares that
if the damages should lie based on size it
would have broken the lee factory, if the
accident had happened to a Chicago girl.
Strange Sort of Talk.
Judge Candler, colonel of the Third
Georgia regiment, now recruiting, express
ed to the Atlanta Journal great regret that
there is a prospect of an early peace—.be
cause "the colonel hopes to get a chance
to do some fighting before the cessation of
hostilities.”
Think of such a man enlisting in a holy
war. a war for humanity. The idea of a
man regretting the cessation of bloodshed,
because, forsooth, he wants to do some
ghting himself, is more revolting than
anything yet charged against the Span
iards. We sincerely hope Judge Candler
<id not express such sentiments. And if
he did not. he should demand a correction.
Mi h bloodthirsty utterances reflect no
credit upon the Mate of which he is a
<it ,en. nor upon th* militia, in which he
is a colonel.
i Journal states that

it is quite likely that Atlanta will get a
new i mon depot at once. She deserves

to make up for lost time when they set
about building It is probably true that
th°>7 &“ siness for the t-ailroads has passed
that Atlanta depot, than has ever .passed
through a building of equal value in the

should give Atlanta a depot in keeping
° n,e the new ™*‘«>Politan build
ings recently completed and now in course
of construction in that city. For. say what
you .p ease, anything less will be too small
for Atlanta in less than a dozen years.
Associate Justice Brewer, having said
that if we had read in the Bible es such
victories as those of Dewey and Schley we
"would scarcely bring ourselves to believe
them, is reminded by the Kansas City
Journal that ’there is nothing in eithe’r
° these to compare for
a moment with the victory o'
Gioeon. who blew up the breastworks of
Jericho with a ram's horn. And in naval
affairs the conquest of Manila is far less
a tax upon credulity than that little busi
ness of Moses with the Egyptians at the
Red Sea. And pray tell us what compari
son is to be made between Sampson, who
slew 600 Spanish with his monster gun
boats, and Sampson, who slew 10,000 Phil
istines with the jawbone of an ass?”
A Grave Scandal.
If half be true that has been said and
written about the military camp at Miami,
Fla . and the reasons for its location ther |
the war department is involved in a mos.
serious scandal. The charge is directly
made that Mr. Flagler had to be taken
care of. Flagler is very close to the ad
ministration and has been a heavy con
tributor to Republican campaign funds.
So when the time came for him to ask a
return for these favors, the administration
could not refuse. Hence the establishment
ot a military camp at Miami, with the
great increase of business it has given
Fagler's railroad and resort hotels.
Miami is simply a death hole, a fever
and mosquito-ridden sand bank, and the
situation there grows constantly worse.
The governors of Texas and of Louisiana
have already protested In behalf of the
troops from those states located there, and
everything seems to demand an investiga
tion and immediate relief.
Many have died as a result of this “deal”
between Fagler and certain heads of the
war department, and their blood is upon
these men. It is a matter too serious to
be ignored; indeed no greater scandal has
ever been attached to our army. In other
countries such a thing might cause a revo
lution. Or if the charges prove unirue
would recoil on the accusers. At any rate,
the case demands investigation.
The Savannah News publishes this bit
of history: “Thirty-six years ago General
Joseph Wheeler had tlhe pleasure of cap
turing the officer he is now serving under
in Cuba. In 'March, 1862, William ft.
Shafter was a major to the Nineteenth
Michigan. He was with a 'foraging expe
dition one day when a body of Wheeler’s
cavalry surrounded and captured the whole
outfit. Shafter was sent to Richmond, and
spent six weeks in Libby prison. Nobody
In the country has a higher opinion of
‘Little Joe’ as a strategist and fighter than
General Shafter.”
It is already evident that the question
of the disposition of the Philippines will
be the most difficult to settle when a
treaty of peace with Spain comes to be
negotiated. The Spanish government has
undoubtedly made up its min'd that Cuban
Independence must be acknowledged, and
that iPonto Rico must be ceded to us in
lieu of a money indemnity for the ex
penses of the war.
The New York 'World makes this state
ment; “Sylvester Scovel is no longer con
nected with this newspaper.” But it will
require more than to make the World a
decent newspaper.
The Carnival has already put new life
in.to our .people. Tlhere is a general feel
ing that good times are almost here, and
that 'the Carnival will usher them it.
(A Western contemporary correctly re
marks that a gun with an American be
hind it is botlh a peacemaker and a map
maker.
The list of Spanish ships destroyed 1r
the present war reads like the hill of fan
to a cigar store, says a Mississippi editor
When General Toral arrives back in
Spain he will probably find himself read
out of the iparty.
The yellow fever is slowly convalescing
from an attack on Steve Crane, observes
an exchange.
Scovel must be preitty bad when the Nev
York World cannot afford to have him on
its staff.
Ponce was dead easy.

pain continually In back and sides, no ap
petite—gradually growing weaker day by
day. Three physicians had given me up.
Fortunately a friend advised trying “Elec
tric Bitters,” and to my great joy and sur
prise the first bottle made a decided im
provement. I continued their use for three
weeks and am now a well man.* I know
they saved my life and robbed the grave
of another victim.” No ons should fail to

Apropos of Second Lieutenant J. H.
Scott, the Philadelphia hoy. who is the
executive officer of the Hudson, who pulled
the Winslow out of a hole when disabled
at the bombardment at Cardenas, a story
of his love of excitement is given by a
classmate while the pair were on the Unit
ed States boat Chase as cadets on their
practice cruise The vessel was at Li si ion,
Portugal. The starboard watch of cadets
wore ashore on leave. Some, with
‘Hutchy,” as Scott was familiarly called,
went to see a bullfight at a suburb of Lis
bon called Cintra.
In the royr.l box that afternoon in Au
gust of 1888 sat the present ruler of Portu
gal, then a debonair and democratic youth.
Suddenly a cadet's cap was seen to fly
through the air and drop in the center of
the arena. The owner, none other than
“Hutchy,” jumped into the ring, grabbed
a spear from a dazed mutation- and after
giving his trousers a sailorlike hitch the
hero of Cardenas proceeded to assail a
lively runt of a bull. The multitude that
crowded the tiers recognized the uniform
and yelled, men, women and children,
"Viva el Americano!"
Suddenly the bull fell The first hull
killed in a Portuguese arena for 20 years,
and that by a Philadelphia boy. However,
with spear in one hand and his cap in the
other,looking very much scared, "Hutchy”
was conducted by some attendants to the
royal box and received, much to his sur
prise, not only congratulations, but Prince
Carlos, reiuoxing a signet ring from his
finger, presented it to tscott.
The affair was the talk of Lisbon for
several days, and as a result of the cele
bration that followed, for the ring had to
be wetted, "Hutchy” and his chums wore
kept on hoard the Chase for a mont h or
, men*
