Mi ” B. Stevens. the nominee for com
mi sioner of agriculture, has devised a
plan by which he hopes to divert $20,000
01 $2.>,000 of the ft es received from fertili
zer lusp. c'ion. and with I'hat sum not only
render the agricultural department more
etfeci.ve, but give an industrial or agri
cultural education to 240 young men dur
ing the next four years.
Mr Stevens doos not chink that it was
ever intended that the agricultural depart
ment should be a source of revenue to tide
Mate It was intended to improve the ag
ricultural interests of the state and as a
gr< at deal more an be done to this end
with more money to work with, he thinks
tha. more ot the net proceeds of the fees
should go to the work of the department.
He thinks they will amount to $30,000. Os
this sum he will ask that JIO.OoO go to the
department, with winch he will colieot
ataiiatics of 'the state’s industry, its ex
ports ami miiwrts. and would publish In
formation .is io soil cultivation and the
crop* raised in the different parts of the
state The fanners would also be kept
posted on improved machinery, Its oust,
and where it might be had.
The remainder of the fund, now $20,000,
but probably $25,000 hereafter, he would
ask the legislature to apply to industrial
education of Georgia boys His plan would
be to select the bo£s by competitive exam
ination, and lend them $lO a year each at
3 to 5 per cent interest. to go through the
Technological .school, the Agricultural col
lege or any other state institution for in
dustrial education. He would create sixty
scholarships like this for the flrwt year,
and sixty each for the second, third and
fourth years. Then there would be 240 in
the institutions for industrial education in
the four years or classes. The $24,000 out
of fees would furnish $lO each to lend the
boys V year or so after graduation they
would begin to pay back the money, aud it
<*oukl be reloaned to others, incroaslng the
number in school. The sixty scholarships
would be apportioned to different ports of
the state, say one for each senatorial dis
trict and sixteen for the state at targe.
The ticket named by the Populists Is far
from being a strong one Mr. Wharton
Baker, the nominee for president, has
gained some prominence as an advocate
of free silver in the sound money city of
Philadelphia, and Mr Ignatius Donnelly,
although a brilliant man. Is such an erra
tic sort of an individual that he is regard
ed as a crank by a very large portion of
his fellow citizens.
Gertilizer Fees.
Hon O B. Stevens, who will be the next
commissioner of agriculture, makes a
practical suggestion when he says, accord
ing to the Atlanta Journal, that the surplus
..rising from fees for the insuection of fer
til.iers shorn ’. be used to extend the work
of the agricultural department and enlarge
its usefulness.
rile present commissioner, Colonel Nes
bitt, uas repeatedly recommended that this
be done, but h.s advice has not been
heeded.
The welfare of the state would be promo
ted if the legislature would strengthen the
department of agriculture, giving it the
means for more effective service.
Colonel Nesbitt has don<» well with the
very small amount of money at his dis
posal, but it has been far too little for the
needs of the farmers and the good of the
Ihe various publications of the depart
ment arc sought after and prised by the
at n. r. and yet only ..bout one in fifty mu
get them
The set 1 zer money is raised by taxing
an ar tele ut,ed only by farmers, and it
seems simple justice that it should be
expe.t.i.d iu their interest, and on their
education.
At present the net proceeds of this rand,
some twelve of fourteen thousand dollars
is turned into the state school fund, where
it amounts to a drop in the bucket, while
.. devotei to educating the farmers, the
state would be vastly benefited by it. Thia
' vry ting is now done in a number of
states, and Georgia should take like action.
Every farmer in the state is entitled to.
and should have, the publications of the
department. Farmers’ institutes should be
held in every county, and every other
kinown means should be used to build up
ohe industry upon which all other indus
tries depend.
The Chattanooga Times thinks that the
Georgia Democrats are ’’having a very
difficult time in getting up interest in
their state campaign.” Absence of brass
bands and fireworks must not be regarded
as a lack of interest in this instance.
When the time for voting comes Colonel
Candle- will be given a majority that will
simply paralyze the opposition.
According to ex-Secretary Sherman
General Mlles "is no more afraid of an
issue ihajj an ladiap,”
Not Glsditone, but Wolieley.
"The Kitchener hat and the Kitchener
necktie have already developed in London.
The hero of Omdurman will have honors
of all sorts piled on him He has done
what England has wanted done for fifteen
years, and what would have been done
soon after the murder of Gordon but for
Mr. Gladstone’s vacillating policy. The
English government has remembered Gor
don at last and General Sir Herbert Kitch
ener takes bis place among the great liv
ing generals." Atlanta Journal
Gladstone is dead. The great statesman
may or may not havrf been responsible for
the failure of the English to reach Khar
toum before this time and if he was re
sponsible perhaps he- was right.
A little unwritten history, however, may
correct some of the errors that are going
tne rounds of the press and which have
fvin emanated from our usually very cor
rect contemporary, the Atlanta Journal.
In some of the newspapers the mistakes
have been ludicrous and painfully illus
trative of the method of the modern news
paper that calls for a man to write edito
rials who knows something about every
thing for the information of a trusting
public.
They tell us that Gordon has been
avenged. Poor Gordon, be was the last
man in the world to wish that eigbb»thous
and bravo fanatics and barbarians should
be slaughtered to avenge his own life. All
the blod that flows in all tfie veins in the
Spudan could not avenge the death of
Gordon. It could not wipe out the red
stain that rests upon that page in English
history in which is written the story of
Gordan’s assassination and the Soudan
campaign on the Nile. Nothing will ever
clear away the stain that the vanity and
the vacillation of Lord Wolseley, of Carlo,
has cast upon the escutcheen the English
army and for which he is cursed by every
man and most of the officers in the ser
vice. ,
Away back in the year 1884 General
Graham headed the first English expedi
tion into the Soudan and there, in the bat
tles of El Teb and Tamail, fought the
forces of the .Mahdi and, with an army
the blood that flows in all the veins in the
two actions some fourteen thousand of the
savages. At that time Gordon was In
Khartoum. Shut In and threatened with
treachery and death. Gordon did not fear
death. He was a fatalist, but he well
knew that his death meant the complete
loss of the Soudan and the necessity for a
tremendous expense and loss of life before
the rule of the Khedive or of Victoria
could be established there. He knew bet
ter than any other living man the condi
tions existing in that country and he knew
that he could not hold out much longer.
While apparently at that time he was se
cure and had more influence than any
other white man, he felt that the Mahdi
must win eventually and that between
them the struggle was going on all the
time for mastery. When the Mahdi won
then must come the death of the represen
tative of English and Egpytian rule.
Then it was that Wolseley's vanity and
folly, his vaccilatlon and his entire lack of
qualities that make a great general, led
him to make the first mis-step that meant
death to Gordon.
Graham's army of four thousand men
had given the Mahdi’s forces under Osman
iDigna their first defeat. They met an army
of anywhere from twenty to fifty thousand
men and every hour of the day and night
for twelve long weeks were on watch and
in danger of their lives. Every battle or
skirmish was desperate and every man felt
that he was fighting then and there for
his life. It was a wonderful struggle away
over yonder on the yellow sands of the de
sert —four thousand men against fifty
thousand with no hope of retreat or salva
tion if for one moment the savages got.the
upper hand. There would have been no
quarter, no prisoners and no mercy. There
was none on the English side
Uu to that time Osman Digna’s army
had defeated every expedition that had
come into that country. Victory had
perched upon his banners and his people
had come to believe' that they were in
vincible. But Graham’s expedition taught
them something about the fighting quali
ties of the Anglo-Saxans.
They were defeated, cowed and the de
sert was covered with their dead. The
virtue of the amulet that would make the
bullets turn to water had failed and the
fanatics were impressed with the idea that
the British bore charmed lives.
When the campaign was over and the
army was .resting on the shores of the Red
Sea, General Stewart offered to ride
through to Khartoum with six hundred
cavalry and relieve Gordon. He could
have done it. The friendly natives could
have guided him where the wells gave
supply of water along the route to Berber
and thence along the Nile up to the fated
city where the brave soldier stretched out
his hand for succor and raised a piteous
appeal not for his own life but for the
honor of his country, his flag and his
blood. A dispatch was sent to the war
office asking for permission to send these’
men through but the reply denied the re
quest. Wolseley had in view a triumphant
advance up the Nile with a great expecta-,
tion and the glory of relieving Gordon
himself. That glory could not belong to
Graham or to Stewart, but the man who
won a peerage and fame in a fifteen min
ute fight with an army of cowards was
puffed up with the importance of winning
more laurels in a country that had been
so easily prolific of honors for him.
That was the first mistake. It Is un
written history but it is nevertheless a
fact.
Then when Wolseley’s expedition started
up the Nile with every equipment that the
money of England could provide, whose
vaccilation was it that cost Gordon his
life?
Wolseley got as far as Dongola and there
he pottered about. He sent out a little
expedition here and another one there. He
divided up his force and at Abu Kleawells
he came as near securing annihilation as
has ever come by an English force. As it
was. in that fight he lost some of the finest
officers in the service. There it w-as that
brave Burnaby fell fighting like the lion
heart that he was. and Earle and Cameron
and Stewart himself. Why not talk of the
avenging of their death?
And the vaccilation of Wolseley cost
Gordon his life. The expedition was too
slow. It did nothing and was a rank fail
ure. It brought upon English arms the
contempt of the Mahdi and his men. They
thought that they had another Hicks to
deal with and they had no fear of the ven
geance of that loafing general who had
laid up at Dongola for months while Gor
don prayed for a few men or for the sight
of an English uniform.
Whose vaccilation was it and whose van
ity was it?
Wolseley is responsible for the death of
Gordon, and Gordon’s death has not been
avenged. The slaughter of ten thousand
men the other day on the sands of the
desert in the Soudan is nothing new.
Graham killed fifteen thousand. Baker lost
four thousand. Crawford lost two thousand,
Hicks lost twenty thousand and in these
various actions the losses of the Mahdi
were not less than twenty-five thousand
more. There are other lives to be avenged,
but jx>or Gordon's life and death rests at
the door of the most incompetent general
that could have been selected for such
work«and he selected himself to th? exclu
sion of Stewart, who nine months earlier
could and would have rescued Gordon but
for the living Wolseley and his vanity, not
the dead Gladstone and his vaccilation.
The first subject taken up by the Ha
waiian commission, according to a dis
patch. 'was a name to be given the ter
ritory." Why is not the name It has good
enough? Are we going to upset traditions
as well as governments and wipe out land
marks of history as well as national iden
tity In the cases of newly acquired terri
tory?
