He has a kick coming. Speaking editorially the Savannah Press says: “We don’t think." That's not Pleas an L Monroe Advertiser: The hog and hominy raisers are not worried over the low price of cotton. The man who presents his political opin ions to hta political friends only, confers a great favor on his other friends. Americus Herald: Macon did well to have its corn 1 v'al before the possibility of pro hibition was put to the voters. Reynolds New South: "Despite hie mod esty Daisy Price was the hub around which the Macon Diamond Jubilee revolved. Alfred Henry Lewis, the well known newspaper writer, predicts the election of Governor Van Wyck, of New York to the presidency in 1900. Waycross Herald: The Queen of England and the Empress of China rule half the world, and the balance of the women rule the other half. Monroe Advertiser: Macon is a hustling city. The carnival was a grand success and Macon proved that she was able to handle the crowd. The New York Journal has completed a poll of the state of New York, and de clares that Van Wyck would be elected by 36,000 majority, should the election occur today. '‘General Graham may now relinquish his apprehensions of yellow fever in the southern camps,” the Augusta Chronicle remarks, “and guard against pneumonia ■where he la.” John L. Sullivan was given an enthu siastic welcome by the inmates "of a luna tic asylum at Matteawan, N. Y. It might ■eem invidious to institute comparisons with John's usual audiences. If is true that more bales of hay arc imported Into Georgia than bales of cot ton are exported from the state, that is one reason why prosperity is a little slow about, making a date with us.—Americus Herald. ' j I The Republican party professes a great deal of friendship for the laboring man just before election, but its love for him vanishes Just as soon as the votes are cast. The Democratic party is a workingman's party -all the year round and tho -records prove it. ■General Joe Wheeler was -born on Ellis afreet in 'Augusta, Ga. His father married, ft Miss Hull, daughter of Commodore Hull. Edward F. Campbell married another daughter of the commodore. Mr. Camp bell’s daughter is now Mrs. W. IW. Mont gomery, of Savannah, widow of the late lamented judge. The Sparta Ishmaelite says: There ought to be a reform of the pension system in Georgia. No one not absolutely indigent should draw a pension. The tendency is to pension every man who was in the Con federate service. The motive back of it may be all right, but the taxes are already far too high. The pension and school funds should both be reduced. An English rural clergymen says that one day a bride startled him by promis ing, in what she supposed to be the lan guage of the prayer book, to take her hus band “to 'ave and to ’old from this day forni’t for betterer horse, for richerer pow er, in slggerness health, to love cherries and to bay.” What meaning the extraor dinary vow conveyed to the woman’s own mtnd. the incumbent said, baffled him to conjecture. ~ . IPennslyvania Presbyterians have deci ded that the use of tobacco is so sinful that aid must be refused to any theological student whb loves the weed. Brethren old in the faith, who are confirmed in the habit, will be looked upon as chained elaves to the vice, but will be allowed to remain in the clergy. The day of tolerance in small things seems to -be still distant in some action. Coffee drinking may next come under the ban. The Chicago Times-Herald declares that Kipling's new poem, “The Truce of the Bear." has no relation to Russia or the czar's disarmament proposition, and we confess that intrinsically there is nothing whatever in the poem to sustain the claim of the relation. It is an animal story with a wholesome moral, and is. besides, a good piece of poetry; but there is nothing -in it to show that it is meant as a political alle gory, although it has been accepted by the public as such. The shrewd and calculating sporting men of New York, who bet to win. and never permit their feelings to get the better of their judgment, are good vanes to show the direction the political wind is blowing. The betting on the result of the election start ed on September 29, with odds of 2 to 1 on Roosevelt. Since then, however, the odds have been steadily drawn and on Monday last the Democratic candidate sud denly forged to the front as the favorite and a large sum of money was offered at 10 to S on Van Wyck, but very little of It was taken. Here is an interesting bit of information from the Memphis Scimitar: all the more interesting it true: "The wisdom of bri gading together volunteers from the North and South appears in the remarkable friendship that sprung up in eamp be tween the First Georgia and the Thirty first Michigan. So strong did the feeling became that the Georgia regiment, being on the eve of disbandment, 250 members of it have applied for leave to fill vacancies in the Michigan regiment, which is to re main in the service.” No interests in the country received a larger measure of protection in thl> Ding , ley bll than those of the wool growers and the manufacturers of woolen and worsted goods, but despite this fact tbeee interests haxe not prospered. On the contrary, they are in a bad way and are beginning to un derstand that protection is a failure. The Boston Herald admits the fact that the importations of foreign wool have fallen off tremendously. In place of 360.000,(MX) pounds of wool imported in the fiscal year of 1896-97, the importations in the fiscal year of 1897-98 were only 132,000.000; in other words, there was a decline in raw material imported of about 60 per cent or, if one -takes first and second class wools, a falling off is shown from 235.000,000 pounds in the former year to 47,000,000 in Che latter year, or about 80 per cent. Wheat Raising in Georgia. Our local contemporary, which does bus iness on an isolated corner in the residence portion of the city, evidently has & farmer at its “helm." Farmers do not, as a rule, make good pilots, nor do pilots make good farmers,’ and it w equally true that while In their own eewmation, editors are farmers, ail farmers are not editors.. The responsible producer of the wheat articles that appear ou toe editorial page of the perverted publication in the suburbs is a self-confessed farmer. He is proud of it, too— very properly proud that be was raised between the plow handles and knows much about mules. The ego of the perverted publication, of course, knows more about the profession which he forsook than do his non-s-uc ceraful brethren whom he left between the plow handles when he assumed the grave responsibilities of a "progressive weekly" in the Ml regrass, and received his tithe of the product of the soil i a returu tor the chunks of theoretical advice and sweet stuff that went to make up its pages. The perverted publication which two years ago advocated a tariff on sea island cotton and so laid the foundation for the Hanson-AV ilkinson fusion fiasco of this year in the Eleventh district; the alleged Democratic newspaper that finds no fault with the only honest Republican principle of high tariff; the publication that loses no opportunity to assail the Democratic platform of today because it is not in ac cord with the Republican platform; the only daily newspaper in the South that fa vors trusts, combinations and the might of money against the rights of living—now poses as the chief instructor of the South ern farmer and the great authority upon agriculture in Georgia. As a matter of fact, so far the stuff that has been written in its columns about wheat by its agricultural editor, lacks everything that the student of agriculture has learned in his first year course. The Telegraph knows nothing about wheat growing. It has confessed to its gross ignorance on the subject in column after column of foolish and harmful twad dle, written we must believe in good faith as -a solution of the agricultural problem. 'As a matter of fact the solution of that problem has been found many years ago, but that solution is not wheat raising -with twenty bushels, worth 65 cents a bushel, to the acre and costing a minimum of 80 cents a bushel, under fair farming prin ciples, to raise it. Another fact of -the matter is that wheat economically raised and bringing 68 cents a bushel, is a most expensive crop, and if it it is raised with commercial fertilizer arid the land is honestly maintained, it is an ex travagant crop and flour made for home use is a luxury. (We really believe that the farmers of Georgia would be wise to leave wheat alone and use only corn meal. We do not believe that wheat at 70 cents a bushel would pay the Georgia far mer except in small quantities, perhaps, and as a crop rotation or fallow on some peculiar and particular piece of land. The Telegraph’s agricultural editor, like all theoretical farmers, has started this movement for agricultural reform at the wrong end. He is palpably, lamentably ignorant as to the first principles of farm ing and is therefore incapable of giving advice upon the subject. We must all smile at the self-executed picture of its esteemed editor as he follow ed the mule in his boyhood and tickled the virgin soil with a bull tongue, some sixty years ago, but we cannot agree with him about wheat raising in Georgia, nor do we believe that he will find a single practical and intelligent farmer in the world to agree with him. The Georgia farmer will not get profit by raising wheat at 68 cents a bushel, or at SO cents a bushel. The farmers of the greatest wheat raising country in the world, where'the yield per acre is double what it ever will be in -Georgia, realized this many years a-go when wheat went down to below 80 cents, and those farmers do not use a ton of commercial fertilizer in a decade. The Georgia farmer must get down to practical, economical, diversified farming before he can become a free man and a freeholder. We are well aware that there are some good and practical farmers in Georgia and we are confident that they will agree that wheat at 68 cents a bushel raised on a farm where no stock is kept and commer cial fertilizer is used or the land is allowed to run down, is a most expensive crop, and ■that -the average Georgia farmer who goes to make up the bulk of the farmers, would -be wise and more economical if he raised mce corn, more hogs, more stock, more hay, more oat straw and more manure be fore he pajs much if any attention to wheat. Newspaper Advertising. The value of newspaper advertising over all other kinds has found a new illustra tion in the city of Cleveland. The shrewd est and mos-t successful amusement man ages in that city recently came to the con clusion that only newspaper advertising was valuable, and the 'Associated Press re cently carried out this report of his new policy., Manager Hartz, of the Euclid Aven-ue opera house, believes he has demonstrated the superiority of newspaper advertising over all other forms. Last week he deci ded to abandon all advertising by means of bill board posters and window hangers and to depend upon the newspapers en tirely. The only posters shown were those at the entrance of the theater. The result of the experiment was gratifying. The other night Julia Marlowe began a week’s engagement and the house was sold out, it was said, before the performance began. Mr. Hartz has decided to put up no more posters. This is a remarkable case of the value of newspaper advertising; for there is scarcely anything in the line of posters that is more attractive than those put out by the theaters. If they have lost ail power to attract the eye, then certainly all other posters have, and advertising of value is confined to the newspaers. Harold Frederick. Harold Frederick, who died last week at Henley, England, was a keen observer of events and a vigorous and scholarly writer. He was a journalist of high attainments and a writer whose field of work included a wide range of subjects. He understood English politics thoroughly, and though he always evinced some bias in treating of the English political controversies he gave Americans readers very interesting ac counts of the leading events in English public life. Frederic’s letters to the New York Times were a notable feature of that journal. His excursions into the field of fiction writing won him no little fame, especially a-braod. “The Damnation of Theron Ware was much discussed in England upon its .ap pearance not long ago. An earlier success in fiction was "Seth's Brother’s Wife.” He was an honor to his profession and represented it -well abroad, being popular with the English people and yet never for getting his Americanism. Had Precedents. The Chicago Times-Herald calls atten i -tion to the fact that the proposed Anglo- I American alliance is nothing unique, isn t I even novel; that a similar though more r w [gj POWDER Absolutely Pure , - i .. - ... : practical proposition was made as early as 1850, when John M. Clayton, secretary of state, and Sir Henry Lytton Bulwer, min ister from Great Britain to this country, got together in an alliance, known as the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, which alliance is still in vogue, and which provides that when any canal is built, whether crossing -the isthmus at Panama or at any other place on the narrow neck of land which connects North and South America, the ’ (United States and Great Britain shall guar antee its neutrality tor all time, neither power to have any advantage over the other in the use of the canal. In view of the staunch support Great Britain gave the United States in the recent trouble with . Spain, the people of this country are not . likely to kick against the provisions of the treaty. We Will Feed the World. , The bureau of statistics has compiled its report of the exports of breadstuffe, provis ions, cotton and mineral oils for nine months of the current year. The figures must prove surprisingly satisfavtory. It apears that the total exports of these products for nine months amount to nearly the figures for either 1896 or 1897, for the whole twelve months. The following com • parative table must prove of special inter - est: i Articles. 1898. 1797. , Breadstuffss22s,s26,993 $159,317,747 Cattle and hogs... 25,606,852 29,641,779 Provisions 120,564,992 -102,949,090 ' -Cotton 122,452,132 198,436,395 ‘ Mineral oils 39,216,393 44,267,295 Total nine m0nth5.5533,367,342 $444,612,306 Increase 88,755,056 The increase in breadstuffs ($66,209,246) is certainly a remarkable and gratifying showing—almost phenomenal, when it is considered that for about four months of that time we had a war on our hands.. October 18th might with propriety be made “flag day” in this country, if more holidays are needed. On that day of this year Porto Rico was formally transferred to the sovereignty of the United States and the American flag was hoisted with due ceremony on the former public 'build ings of Spain. Thirty-one years before-, on October 18, 1867, our flag’ was raised in Sitka, terminating the Russian control of Alaska. Ninety-five years ago, on Octo ber 18, 1803, he treaty with France by which the great territory of Louisiana was ceded to the United States was transmit ted to the senate by (President Jefferson. The day is certainly one -made memorable by historic events of the first importance.
