TrURSDAY MorNING. DEC. 5, 1901.
David Nation has been divorced
from his wife, Mrs. Carrie Nation,
the smasher of bar-rooms.
J. B. McGhee shot and killed
Frank Miller, in ¥loyd county. It
seems to have been a cold blooded
murder.
By the collision of trains near
Detroit, Mich., about 100 persons
were killed and injured. Fire fol
lowed and many were roasted.
Stuart Young, city treasurer of
Louisville, Ky., blew out his brains
when he learned that experts were
going over his accounts. He had
been betting on the races.
The prize money for the Santia
go victory has been apportioned,
Sampson receiving $25,000, arriv
ing after the battle was fought,
and Schley, who wan the victor in
the fight, receiving $216. Dewey
for his share in the prize money
1n thedattle of Manila, received
more than $9,000.
Hasty judgment of the actions
of others is dangerous and often
unjust. We measure too much by
gsoeme superficial appearance, and
condemn hastily, when, if we
knew all and understood the mo
tives and reasons, we should
warmly approve. .
The United States is on a trade
for the Danish West India islands
and the prospects are that the
trade will be made. When islands
are put on the market Uncle Sam
will pay the highest market price.
Denmark may be assured of a
trade ig this case. The islands are
adjacent to Cuba and will aid
somewhat the cause of annexation.
The new Holland submarine tor- 1
pedo boat is the wonder of all na
val men. It was given a trial on
Friday at Green Point, L. I. Itis
named the Fulton. Shipbuilder
Nixon says it is ‘'a great steel fish
in which are used all of the me
chanical developments of the past
few vears and over whose move
ments a man exacts as perfect and
instant obedience to his will asif
the fish had brains.”” In his opin
ior: a harbor defended by two such
boats could not be bottled up as
was Santiago.
A religious paper published un
der the patronage of one of our
leading denominations of this
country, recently printed an edi
torial in which the statement was
made that the average salary paid
to the ministers of that denomin
ation was $247 a year. If thid is
the case, there must, of course,
be as many or more salaries be
low that figure than in excess of
it, so that the threadbare coat of
a country clergyman represents
more economy, more pinching,
saving, skimping, more sacrifice,
more devotion to a cause thar the
world wouid deem poesible were
the fact not capable of complete
demonstration.
John F. Mack, of DeKalb, lil.,
is a remarkable maun. When he
married Daisy Ellicon five years
ago she gave him a wedding pres
ent of $60,000. They failed to
agree and she recently sued for di
vorce, which was granted. Mack
instantly paid her over $60,000 in
court, and they parted on appar
ently good terms,
' YERIFIED.
Ever since the sinking of the
Spanish fleet in Manila bay by
Admiral Dewey, and the subse
quent seizing of the Philippine
islands by the United States, the
Marietta Journal has never ceased
|to show the harm that would re
isult to this country through its
, retaining possession of the islands.,
All of the Journal’s statements
and predictionus upon this moment
luus question have been strictiy
verified and fulfilled by Senator
Bacon who has just returned trom
that territory where he made a
prolonged and exhaustive study of
the conditions prevailing there.
The Senator’s information is de
rived from observation and state-‘
‘ments of army officers, civil offi
cials and Filipinos of high posi
tion, all upon the spot, and the
uniform testimony Is, that the
American government in attempt
ing to annex these islands by force
has undertakeun a greater task than
it will be able to bring to a suc
cessful termination. The Filipi
nos are said to desire ardently ab
solute independence and will be
satisfied of nothing short of that.
A standing army of sixty thousand
men will be necessary as a perma
nent army of occupation of the
ielands, the fighting will continue
as long as there are any Filipinos
left, or until the Americanseither
die of disease, are slain, or become
weary of the struggle and quit.
The value of the islands to this
country will, from a commercial
standpoint, never be such as to re
turn to us one-tenth of what they
have already cost us. This opin
ion is general in the Philippine
Islands.
Senator Bacon truly declares
that the whole quesfion must be
removed from poiitics, or must not
be again taken as a principle of
the democratic platform. Being
confused with other issues, as it
was, at the last national election,
with the silver question, it cannot
be properly considered upon its
merits. Being non-political, both
parties can calmly consider it and
act upon it for the best interests
of the country.
President McKinley was a great
and good man in most respects but
he was unalterably wedded to the
plan of permanently retaining
this distant territory, and to his
personality, more than to its own
merits, was the popularity of the
measure due. Under changed con
ditions it is to be hoped that the
good judgment of the country can
now assert itself.

BE CAREFUL.
A wandering preacher named
Douglas, who carried on a pro
tracted meeting at Lithonia, mar
ried recently a young lady of that
place on the strength of a short ac
quaintance. A few days ago he took ‘
his bride to Atlanta and deserted
her there at a hotel, after securing‘
her money and forging a check
and receiving the money on her
father’s bank account. A trick
somewhat similar to this, was
played by the same rascal on a
Valdosta young lady.
This fraudulent preacher carried
with him to Lithonia a strong tes
timonial as to character, from a
well known minister in Georgia
and it was largely upon the
strength of this that the fraud was
enabled to practice hisdeceptions.
A recent issue of the Courant-
News, of Cartersville, states that
a mulatto man of that place went
to Millen, in this state, and rep
resenting himself as a white man,
secured employment in a cotton
firm. He was soon admitted to
‘the best white society in the place,
being a member of the Methodist
Sunday school, and entertained
freely at the white social funections
of the town. Only the chance
recognition of the impostor by a
Cartersville white man, ruined
the little game and compelled the
ambitious darkey to hastily flee
to parts unknown in order to es
cape the wrath of his dupes.
Ministers of the gospel and oth
er persons occupying positions of
trust and confidence should be
very careful as to how they induce
other people to act upon their rep
resentations. These persons are
80 prominently before the public
whose confidence they possess, that
most people, without investigating
the matter, would accept the state
ments of their leaders concerning
It. ‘
Young ladies, especially in small
towns where social conditions are
stationary, are often tco ready to
accept the attentions of any chance
young man of good address and
appearance, who may come among
them. It may be a nice thing to
‘‘have a new lover, mamma, mam
ma,’’ if he is the right sort of a
man, but a very poor one if he
turns out to be an individual of
the stamp of the bogus preacher or
the Cartersville darkey.
To both preachers &and young
ladies we say,
Be careful till you are sure of
vour man.
SQUELCHED.
A Methodist minister in Atlan
ta who is continually harping
about secular matters attempted
to put a resolntion through the
late North Georgia Conference at
Rome, askiog the legislature to
take certain action in regard to
prohibition. The resolution was
defeated by a large majority the
conference taking the sensible and
seriptural ground that the func
tions of the church are different
from those of the state and the two
should not be mingled.
' RaApivg VECTOR.
Already wupwards of 50,000
ciaims for pensions have been filed
by soldiers who served in the re
cent war with Spain and in the
Philippine Iglands. This isabout
20 per cent. of the total enlist
ment for the service. The heavy
filing of claims, many of which
are without merit, is said to be
due to the activity of pension
agents and drummers, who have
been permitted to frequent army
posts for the purpoee of soliciting
business. So persistent had the
drummers become that their ope
rations were not short of scandal
ous, 80, at the instance of Pension
Commissioner Evans, an order
was lasued a few days ago prohib
iting pension drummers from vis
iting or soliciting at army posts.
Our national military academy
wag not more than sufficient to
furnish officers for an army of 25,-
000 men. If'we wereto have here
after an army of three or four
times that size, manifestly we
must have three or four times as
many oflicers, and the necescary
establishment to educate that in
creased number.” The same oh
servation applies with respect to
the increase in the navy. . We are
building new ships without pro
viding for officers and men to op
erate them. If Congress means
to make this a fighting nation, it
must provide the trained men to
direzt the fighting.
The hogs in Buffalo, New York,
stock yards have the smallpox,
contracted from some Poles who
live near the slaughter houses.
