It now looks as if there may be some more war. The peace com missioners at Paris have struck a snag. The American commissioners demand all the Philippines and the Spanish commissioners flatly refuse to give up any of them. The Presi dent has instructed the American c onmissioners that there must be no delay or quibbling—that things must be brought to a head immediately. War preparations have been resumed and orders for discharge of many regiments have been revoked. The position of our government in this matter seems to be that we must have these undesirable islands because we are able to force their relinquishment from a nation already utterly vanquished. It is not a question of right, but might. Were we treating with Russia or Germany perhaps we would be in a more judicial frame of mind. The Spanish commissioners discern that the American demands savor strongly of brutality, and being the representatives of a proud and high strung people, they decide that rather than acquiesce in the doctrine of force they prefer to swallow the last dregs of inevitable and inexorable defeat. Spain has dallied and de layed hoping against hope that some how in the dispensation of fate some thing would turn up, some complica tion would arise, some nation would interfere. But those hopes have turned to ashes. With Manila and Cervera’s fate and Santiago before their eyes, the great powers are chary of interferring with the Ameri can buzzsaw. And the American backbone is reinforced in its doctrine of force by old England, the great exemplar of that doctrine, who has her guns shotted and her navies with steam up, and making no bongs of the fact ♦ i>n. <€...4.7’ ami Uncle Sam) —will do so and so. It is all up with once illustrious Spain. Nemesis is upon her, with iron claws in her vitals. The bones of the Moors that have prayed to the deaf skies for centuries are at last to be heard. The book of fate is being opened at those awful pages cf Pizarro and the Inca, Cortez and Montezuma. The goblins of the Inquisition—of the and lhe thumbscrew- ’ COme from lheir ■ham'’ “ ouse sword point at -.ie breasts of the children who must answer for the iniquities of their fathers. Spain must drink the cup of her own infernal nostrum. She must bow her head to the fate of her own making. THE FUSION OF THE DEVIL AND THE WITCH. During election week North and South Carolina passed through some appalling scenes of race hatred and bloodshed. At Phoenix, S. C., a fight was started at the polls and a Democratic election manager was killed. Then the war began, con tinuing for several days,*with the re sult that twelve negroes were killed and several leading white Repub licans were badly wounded. At Wilmington, N. C., 10 negroes were killed and the Republicans driven from the city government at the muzzle of the shotgun. The pent up Caucasian fury burst all bounds there on the morning of the election when the negro newspaper came out in an article reflecting on white women. The leading white citizens held a public meeting and passed a resolution demanding that the negro and his newspaper leave the city within 12 hours. At the end of this time the colored editor had failed to respond, and the whites marched in a body to his oftice, destroyed his outfit, and burned the building. The editor bad left town. Then the killing of objectionable characters began, resulting in the death of 10 negroes. About this time the Re publican mayor, aidermen, anil chief of police were asked to resign, which they did instanter, and Democrats took their places. Th is terrible retribution was the culmination of long months of out- ( rageous negro domination, in which - negro constables strode about the 1 state arresting white men and white ’ ladies in the most offensive manner ! possible; in this county and in that i county negro ordinaries issued mar- 1 riage licenses to the first families of the land and boasted that there would be no marriage unless the “nigger certificate” was recognized; negro j superintendents (county officials) worked white men on the public highways, and boasted of it; negro ( office holders, ignorant, but big headed, strutted on the streets, making opportunity to rudely and offensively yell out to a leading gentleman to “move onnegro women of the low’ type pressed prominently to public places, cursing and swearing, and depend.ng upon negro law officers to maintain them in their indecency, and they were supported ; negro justices and negro court officers; insulting beyong en durance and ignorant beyond ex cuse, pretended to hold the scales of justice, always reminding the white citizen that he should be given the same showing as “my own color,” i the negro; negro rowdies, half ! drunken and loud-mouthed, staggered * about the streets, jostling ladies, * brushing down while children and i spitting out insult and not words; > orators on the stump told negroes to put thuir arms about white school . girls. That is the state of things I election day dawned on in North ' Carolina. Do you wonder, then, that white i supremacy asserted itself, even at J the muzzle df the shotgun ? J And all this terrible state of affairs r was brought about by a fusion of i those two abhorrent and abnormal i elements, Republicanism and Pop s ulism. What other offspring could f be expected from a union of two 3 such political forces ? And this reminds us that in that i same year, 1896, the Democrats of r North Carolina fused with the Popu -3 lists on the National ticket. L LEGISLATURE ITEMS. 3 Mr. Smith of Hall has introduced 3 a bill to authorize constables to levy 3 and collect fi. fas. issued from - superior, city and county courts, - when the fi. fas. do not exceed the . sum of SIOO. Mr. Sloan of Hall has introduced 1 a bill to elect jury commissioners by » the people. 1 In addition to the committees 3 mentioned last week, Mr. Sloan has 3 beer, appointed on the General . Judiciary and Printing committees. The house is breaking all records ; in the matter of new bills introduced ■ and nearly every committee has t enough proposed legislation on hand j to keep it busy a week, and more is piling up every day.

CANDLER ON THE PROBLEM. ’ Governor Candler transmits to the ’ legislature a timely and decisive message on the momentous question * of treasury deficit and taxation. He embodies in his message the report of the State Treasury, and in com ment upon it says : It will be seen that there will be a ' probable deficit of nearly $85,000 on the first day of July. In other f words, the money now in the treasuiy 3 and that to be paid into the treasury r between now and the last named date, will lack about $85,000 of being sufficient to meet the legitimate de . mands on the treasury for the same period of time. In this estimate is not inoluded $400,000 which will be I due the teachers of the public schools > on the 20th of July, 1899, for their I second quarter’s work, for the pay ment of which no provision has been 1 made. In this connection it is perhaps my duty to add that there remain approved by the pension commis sioner and unpaid for the want of funds, pension claims to the aggre gate amount of about $60,000. It must be borne in mind that these deficits are all for the present year. If the same appropriations are made for the next year, and the state rate of taxation remains the same as for this year, the aggregate amount of deficit on July 1,1900, will be at least twice as great as it will be in July, 1899. Thus the condition that confronts us is this, we must either reduce ap propriations or largely increase the rate of taxation, when it is already greater than it has ever been in the history of the state, and when our people, especially our farmers, upon whom the burden of taxation largely falls, are, owing to the unpre cedentedly low price of their pro ducts, less able to pay taxes than they haye ever been in the past. This is a grave situation, and it be hooves us to meet it w'ith due regard alike for the tax payers of the state and the persons and institutions for which the state is both legally ard morally bound to provide. Caught the Hatchet. L. F. Finger experienced a painfnl accident Monday. While doing some lathing work he struck himself in the face with the hatched with which he was driving a large nail. A small artery was cut, which bled profusely. The blood was stopped and by the use of court plaster the wound was held together without the use of the needle. Within a few hours from the time of the accident ' Mr. Finger was again wielding the 1 hatchet, but took better care as to the manner of handling it. Getting Beady. , T, M.

Lathem & Son claim the dis tinction of being the first firm or indi viduals in the city of Gainesville who used gas for lighting purposes. They have put in an automatic generator, and Tuesday night their market and sausage factory were brilliantly lighted by gas. They use the latest improved double jet, which gives off a particularly bright light. The gas generated by this improved process is known as Acetylene gas and the cost of one light from it is about one-half cent per hour. A similar system of gas works are be ing put in the post-office and will be complete by to-night. The Hunt House will also be lighted by this method within a short time. This hotel will use 50 lights. All of the equipments have been ordered and all except the generator have arrived. Living High. Dave Johnson has been in the city this week looking like a well-fed man. His son had the good fortune to kill four wild turkeys last Thursday. They were large, fine birds and had enough fat on them to make a bushel of dressing. That there was a feast at the Johnson home no one will doubt, and but few men would enjoy crossing his legs under a table laden with baked turkey and turkey dressing better than Mr. Johnson, whose good lady knows just how to prepare such dishes. Tore Up Things. News has reached the city that a crowd i of rowdies visited the home of Lydia I Wiley, a defenseless deaf mute, at Lula ■ last Thursday night, and after staying . for some time left, and on leaving rocked I the building and shot the front door full of bullet holes. It is said that nine young * men were engaged in this midnight riot, i but as yet their names are unknown. Even if they were known it is not , likely they would be prosecuted, as the woman is said to be a bad character; still ' the better class of people pronounce it a most outrageous occurrence. i ——— . m ■ Bev. J. M. White. I The North Georgia conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church South meets ‘ at Augusta next Wednesday. Rev. J. M. I White will preach his last sermon for , this conference year next Sunday night and will leave Tuesday for Augusta, where he will receive his appointment for next year. Mr. White has served the First Methodist church for the past two - years. He has won the esteem and con fidence of all, and his own congregation and all others o' the city would be glad to have him returned, as he is eligible to j serve this church for two more years. r JABBETT. i 11.

The new hall will be seated with 42- nice chairs and will be lighted by two big swinging lamps. It J will be an ideal hall of comfort, conve i nience, and neatness when completed. » A number of our boys and girls attend t ed an entertainment at Belmont last Sat urday night and in returning were caught in the rain and had their linen dampened. i We thoroughly indorse all the Gaines i ville church said and did in regard to the ■ dispensary. The churches down here r will no doubt pass similar resolutions as soon as they meet. We are in sympathy I for a city that will show the moral weak r ness of putting up a dramshop and then ■ put fines on the customers of the same ! for getting drunk. We hope our people i will raise a mighty plea against such and s remember the indorsers of such a bill at I the polls. dTpT Owing to the rain on Sunday Pastor Grindle did not reach his appointment at Concord. Mr. Samson Head is rather on the sick list at this writing. We hope he may soon have better health. Hop Adams’ new breech-loader just brings ’em down from the highest pines. Dr. S. M. Kimsey is moving back to his home place, having made the addi tion of the Uncle Frank O’Kelley planta tion to his own. We are glad to have the doctor return to the community. Uncle Willis Staton was at church on Saturday, owing to the somewhat im proved condition of his health. The whole congregation were glad to see him out again. The Vote in the Ninth.

There is no new developments in the Mrs. Cross murder case. The police are at work on it, but as vet no clue as to the murderer has been discovered and the whole thing is shrouded in mystery. Yesterday the personal effects of the old woman were sold at public outcry by Coronor Dorsey. Her house was meagerly furnished and the bidders but few, hence the amount realized was small. The Highway of Happiness. Cards are out announcing the wedding of Noble Merck to Miss Lillie Neal, which will occur at 8.30 o’clock Sunday evening at the home of the bride’s grand parents, Rev. and Mrs. A. W. Caldwell, on Green street. BANKS HAS A LYNCHING. A Negro Kills a White Man, and is Strang Up. Last Thursday afternoon Will Gober, colored, came into Homer riding a bicy cle and carelessly ran over Mr. Samuel Ayers, an aged citizen. Jasper Ayers, his sou, reproved the “bully” in tfquiet way for having run against his aged father, whereupon the negro began to show the brute in him and went home for a pistol. Mr. Ayers, who was a quiet, peaceable man, and wishing to avoid further trou ble with the negro went away, but was followed and shot twice with a 38 caliber pistol. He was carried to Dr. O. N. Harden’s office where everything possi ble was done to ease his sufferings and save his life, but it was found impossi ble, as the ball had passed through bis body and stomach and death came in a few hours. Mr. Ayers was a highly honored and respected citizen of the town, quiet and attentive only to affairs of his own. That night between eleven and twelve o’clock a posse of between two and three hundred people from all over the county marched in a body to the home of Sheriff Parks and demanded the keys to the jail. Seeing that resistance would be useless he handed them over and the cspwd marched quietly to the jail and hand cuffed the negro, led him to a large oak between Dr. O. N. Harden’s office and the court house where his body was swung to a limb and riddled with bullets. After being sure of his death the crowd disbanded and went quietly away. The crowd were all mask#A bnLtheir masks did not hide their deterniTnaitbn. While being led to the tree the negro begged all the while for mercy, but noth ing short of death would satisfy the crowd - Enlisting in the Good Cause. T. H. Robertson of this city and Miss Annie Brown of Forsyth copjjty were married last Thursday afternoon at 3 o’clock at the Lome of the bride’s father, ex-Senator Berrien H. Brown, in FoHyth county.

On reaching his majority he taught school, which he a profession until he was elected County School Commissioner, three years ago, which position he has since held to the entire satisfaction of every one. The bride is the daughter of Berrien H. Brown of Forsyth county, who is known far and near for his good sense and high integrity. She is also a teacher who has won distinction and has inherited the strong and splendid traits which have made her family guished. Mr. and Mrs. Robertson arrived in the city Tuesday and are occupying tbp Kim brough dwelling on corner of (X tand High streets, where they ate at* 1 s.e to their friends. *** | x > H. J. Brandon left Monday Yu an ex tensive Western business trip:. He goes in the interest of his collar and harness factory and will travel Texas, Indian Territory, Oklahoma and Arkansas be fore returning home. Mr. Brandon is an old-time drummer and has traveled this Western territory before. He feels con fident of doing a large business in that section, and when he once establishes a trade in those states he will be able to hold it. Gainesville is fast becoming known as a manufacturing eity. There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pro nounced it a loeal disease, and prescrioed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Sci ence has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoon ful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address, F. J.

For three weeks past a number of mei have been engaged in making improvements and grading the grounds. This week the first work has been done towards enclosing the campus since the old nlank fence was torn away a few years ago. The entire grounds will be enclosed by a hedge of Amoor River Privet, which is conceded to be the most beautiful and best of all evergreen hedges. In two years time a complete hedge will grow from the plants which will be put out within the next few days. It is used es? tensively in government parks, both north and south, by Vanderbilt in North Carolina and Flint at Port Tampa. We are glad that one of these hedges will enclose the pride of the city—the Sem inary. is the cause of un told suffering.

THE war is over, and we have demonstrated to the w r orld that our country is the strong est in the family of nations, that our citi zens are the best men on earth, and that American soil is worth* more than that of any i other portion of the face of the globe. j I have on hand for sale a part of this glorious ' country, consisting of Farms, Stores. City Resi j dences, Building Lots, Gold Mines, and, in short, every kind of Real Estate that a man or woman may desire for a happy home or a com fortable living. On account of the stagnation of business during ’96 and ’97, and as a result of the war with Spain prices reached their lowest notch. Prospects are now much brighter, bus i iness is looking up, and I believe now' is a good time to invest. 1 can still sell at lowest prices. I have a large number of Building Lots that I am selling at low prices and on small pay ments, putting it in the reach of all to buy. I have been in this business a long time, many of you have dealt with me, and I propose to : continue to act for the interests of beth buyers I and sellers. I ask ail who desire to buy, or , have property they want to sell, to call on me or write to me. I will benefit you either way. C- A.
