WHAT HAS OCCURRED. .
If three months war with the
Spaniard should have developed
sach a wide field for speculation
and mismanagementg of affairs as
o et glartidh o e
ranking quartermaster of thd army
and of a court martial of the rank
ing general as well as the proba
ble dismissal of the secretary of
war, what might have oeccurred
had the war continued one whele
year ?—Muskogee Times.
The virus of dishonesty and
rascality would have permeated
the army until demoralization
would have touched other gold
epauletts and brass button wear
ers. The corruption would have
gangrened the Republie, as it evi
dently has in MecKinley’s impe
rial policy of subjugation, coer
cion and conquest in the Philip
pine Islands. The war still goes
on, and the end is not yet. The
opportunity for speculation is
still presented, and ripe for pluck
ing. Our people are to be heav
ily taxed to conquer the "’natives,
who are fighting on their own goil
for theirindependence and liberty,
as our forefathers, under Wash
ington,- fought to throw off the
'colonial oppression, tyranny and
misgovernment of Great Britain.
‘Our ships and soldiers have cross
ed the waters to Asiatic shores,
ten thousand miles from our na
tive land, and are waging a war
of destruction of life and property
against a semi-savage people. It
means ‘‘entangling alliances”’
with other nations, and as Spain
was unable to defend herself so
far away from her base of supplies,
against the United States, so we
will be placed in the same attitude
if we attempt to hold the Philip
pine Islands.
Every other national questionl
sinks into insignificance in com
parison to this one. It is a ques
tion of free government and not
of free silver. As the Republi
can party has championed this
imperialism, the Democratic hosts
of this country must fight to de
stroy the last vestige of so poison
ous doctrine.
TWO RECENT APPOINTMENTS.
President McKinley has sent to
the Senate the name of Hon.
David Shelby, of Huntsville, Ala.,
nominated for the judgeship of
the newly created fifth judicial
circuit. For this position there
were a number of other applicants,
including Mr. Thomas J. Glenn,
of Atlanta, between whom and the
fortunate candidate, the contest
really lay. :
The President took the position,
we presume, that in awarding fa
vors along strictly party lines, an
old and tried partisan, one who
embraces the doctrines of his party
because he believes them to be
true, as did Mr. Shelby, is to be‘
preferred to the recent accessions,
whose sudden conversion at a time
when it was generally conceded
that the Republicans would be
successful, raises the suspicion
that some ulterior object was in
view aside from patriotism when
oue party was deserted for anoth
er in order ‘‘to get upon the hand
wagon.”” It seems to us the Predi-;
dent took the right position in.
the matter; and one which if thei
Calamity, President -Cleveland,
had adopted, the Democratic party
would have fared better.
Governor Johnson, of Alabama,
has just filled two vacancies in
the railroads commission of that
state, omitting in his appoint
ments, Mr. John W. Tomlinson,
of Birmingham, one of his closest
political friends and who was uni
versally regarded as a certain win
ner. For this the governor is
very severely criticised by the
Birmingham an other papers for
what they term his ingratitude in
passing by his friend in favor of
others who had no personal elaims
upon him,
To refer again to Mr. Cleveland,
In our opinion, ““A public office is
a public trust” to be filled by
those best qualified to render effi
cient service to the state, and
even when all things are equal, as
‘we presume they were in this case,
in order to avoid the imputation
of fayoritism on the part of the
appointing power, to be awarded
te those known not to be his close
L;ifl'ends. The executive of the state
is, in part, the government per
'sonified, representing ‘‘wisdom,
justice, modemt-ign and trath,’”
un example to othér cifizens, and
‘the visible exponent of the ma
jority of the law. To indicate by
Ifis official actions that he is only
an ordinary human being with
the like feelings and impulses of
othér men, is toderogate from the
veneration in which government
should be held. This view is not
‘‘practical politice,”” and not
likely to be soon, but the correct
one, we belleve, nevertheless. ‘
Governor Johnston, in his ac
tion, has the soundest precedents, j
Washington, Jefferson, Madison,-
etc., acting generally upon this
principle. ' w
CORRESPONDENCE IN ENGLISH. |
English is written more than
any other language, says the New
York Herald. Statistics for 1898
emphasize the fact that more let
teis are written in English than
in all the other languages t-ngeth-‘
er. :
| To be more exact, three-fourths
‘of all the letters that go into the
} mails of the world are in English.
‘This remarkable fact is the more
‘impressive when we remember
‘that only one-fourth of the civil
ized world speaks our language.
There‘are substantially 500,000,-
000 persons who speak the ten
chief modern tongues, and ‘of
these 150,000,000 speak English.
But the number is increasing rap
idly. .
At the beginning of this cen
tury about twelve per cent. of the
civilized world spoke English, at
the middie of the century it was
nineteen per cent., and now, at
its close, itis thirty per cent.
The increase in letter writing has
been far more rapid than this,
and now out of the enormous
number of 10,640,000,000 let-ters‘
posted last year 8,000,000,0004
were written 1n English. ‘
In the United States, alone,i
last year, there were mailed thir- ‘
ty-seven letters for each inhabi
tant, which aggregates forty per
cent. of all the letters written in
the world, and equaled the num
ber written by all of the nations
of Continental Europe.
‘Next to the English, with its
8,000,000,000 letters written last
year, comeg the German, with 1,-
800,000,000; French, 1,000,000,-
000; Italian, 220,000,000; Rus
sian, 180,000,000% Spanish, 120,-

Ask your physician this ques
tion, “Wfiaty:sthe one grcat
rcmcdr for consum&idon?"
He will answer, ‘‘Cod-liver
ofl.” Nine out of ten will
aaswer the same way.
Yet when persons have
consurption they loathe all
falty foods, yet fat is neces
sary for their recovery and
they cannot take plain cod
liver oil. The plain oil dis
turbs the stomach and takes
away the appetite. The dis
agreezble fishy odor and
taste make it almost unen
durable. Whatistobe done?
This question was ans
wered when we first made
- SCOTT’S
EMULSION
of Cod-Liver Oil with Hypo
phosphites. Although that
was nearly twenty-five years
ago, yet it stands alone to
day the one great remedy
for all affections of the throat
-and IT:?.
The bad taste and odor have been
taken away, the oil itself has been
partly digested, and the most sen
sitive stomach objects to it rarely.
Not one in ten can take and digest
= the plain oil. Nine out of ten can
take SCOTT'S EMULSION and di
