11 MR WEEKLY HIM
EXPRESSED HIS ADMIRATION FOR
LEADER OF FILIPINOS.
SAYS AGUINALDO IS A BIG MAN.
Show* Grrnt Tnrt In Holding Our Army
Hack — Spain I.nugli* Over Her
Grmt Bargain.
Aguinaldo! . r lhe name haunts me.
A man, a leader, a general who has
kept the army and navy of the United
States at bay for six mouths, must be a
patriot and a soldier. Surely some
/strong power must be helping him.
Where does he get his supplies, his
guns and munitions cf war? Some
times we hear that he is a fraud,
a tyrant, and will soon play out. One
day we hear that our boys have about
whipped him into submission, but the
next day he has ambushed and killed
a lot of them. Onr boys are discour
aged and say that they are tired fight
ing a million negroes and want to
come home. I wonder how many of
them have died in the ditchea and
from tropical diseases and home sick
ness It seems that these things have
to be kept secret in war, and I reckon
that is right. But it will come out
sooner or later. I
The secretary of war has at last .
been forced to resign because of the '
fearful mortality in Cuba that camel
from his political appointments of job- in- j
eompetent officers and his beef
bery. Alas for the poor privates. In ,
time of war they have no friendfc
There is a wide gulf between them
and the conunissioued officers. A
private must salute his superior officer
and feel, if he does not say, “I am
your dog, sir.” It is had enough in
the volunteer service, but worse in
the regular army. I had two grand
sons in the Cuban army. One was a
captain and the other a private. They
were brothers but were not allowed to
associate. The rules and usages of
war forbade it. One was a dog and
the other his master. Shakespeare
said that privates were food for pow
der and were the cankers of a oalm
world and a long peace.
.' ^As a general rule the regular army
is'maue up of the waifs of misfortune,
the vagababds, the idlers and the
friendless. No well raised young man
think with respectable of becoming conceptions private in the would
a reg
ular army. Enlistment is simply a
mode of providing for the surplus pop
ulation that might otherwise become
anarchists and endanger the govern
ment, Indeed, history tells us that
kings and emperors have found it good
policy to provoke wars in order to give
the idle and restless class something
to do and to keep them out of mischief.
Their monthly pay and rations and the
prospect of a pension in old age is at
traction enough. Paternalism is the
hope of the pauper, the communist,
the private soldier. The government
is their pnp, and, like young jaybirds,
when the old ones come around, they
open their mouths wide and say,
a in here.”
But 1 was ruminating about this
copper colored Filipino,, this man
Aguinaldo, aud for the lifo of me I
cannot help admiring him. If his
people continue to hack him how can
xve subjugate them? He can afford to
lose live to one and then defeat us.
He is exactly in General Grant’s con
dition when nearly the close of ojy
civil war. He said he could give be lif
three to one and conquer us, for
had the world to draw from aud we
had nobody i^ ip Jake our jej’isoners’
That the reason he was so
indifferent to the prisoners that we
took and eouldeut feed. They were
mostly foreigners, who were not fight
ing for patriotism, but for money, for
a living. Look at the names on the
headstones at Chick'aniauga and An
dorsonville. It almost give! a man
the lockjaw to pronounce them. There
were nearly three millions of men iu
that army aud over two million were
foreigners—food for powder—the
cankers of a calm world and a long
peace. What did Grant ancl Sher
man care for them? They enlisted for
$10 a month aud got it aud took their
chances. Honors were easy. The
difference was that our boys were all
patriots and volunteers, and one to
three was a fair fight.
Now. the population ofthe Philip
pines is said to bo 10,000,000.
would give them 1,000,000 soldiers
who are at home. At home delending
their native laud and even if onr boys
should kill or capture Aguinaldo.au
other one would rise up aud lead the
people. Spam is clntokling over the
*20,000,000 we paid for islands that
slie was tireu of, aud it looks to me
like we have bought an elephant. muc^C For
the life of me I can’t arouse In
terest in this far off war with lO.OWo,
000 negroes. 1 don’t care anything
about it. As Spain treated the native
Cubans, so is our government
the Filipinos. I can’t see any differ
ence. I wish there was a difference.
I wish there wns something to pro
voke my pride whenever we obtain
victory, but really this does not seem
like our war. It is an
war-a Republican war. a war
will within a few years cost
aud entail another pension outrage,
There was no necessitv for it and no
excuse for it, and peace might
been made soon after Dewey’s
over the Spaniards. Aguinaldo '
peatedly proposed for it. Yes, begged
for it, but our officials wouldent even
treat with him or recognize him,
so thousands of onr soldiers have
to their death and more are called for-
Let them call. Onr boys are not go
ing—not one. If the negroes choose
to go that’s all right, l’nt negroes to
fighting negroes. It will be a good
riddance of the vagabonds who won’t
work. This negro problem is still un
solved and we will have to wait on it.
I’ve been perusing another Missouri interest
ing book, “The History of the
Compromise,” it is called, but it is far
more than that. It is virtually a polit
ical history of the United States from
1787 to 1854, when the Missouri com
promise was repealed. This repeal
was fathered by Archibald DixoD, from
Kentucky, who succeeded Henry Clay
in the United States senate. He was
a very great and influential man, the
p erff onal friend of Mr. Clay and Seua
tors Douglass and Daniel Webster,
His widow, Mrs. Dixon, still lives—a
highly cultured and gifted woman who
lived in Washington with her husband
during all of that exciting period when
the north was struggling for mastery
on the slavery question. This book
has recently been issued from the
press of the Robert Clark company of
Cincinnati, and has already received
the highest commendation from Henry
Wattersou, Proctor Knott, William
Wirt Henry, The New York Times,
The Evening Post and many other pa
pers, partisan and non-partisan,
All are lavish iu its praise and de
elare it to be the truth, the whole
truth, and nothing but the truth, and
the wonder is that it was written by a
woman. For many years she has made
it a labor of love and has made a most
interesting and valuable contribution
to our political history. Every lover
of historical truth that concerns the
glorious past, when there were giants
in our national legislature, should
read and ponder this remarkable book,
And there has come to me a sweet lit
tie gem of a book called “Shadows on
the Wall ? ” by Miss Howard Weeden,
of Huntsville, Ala. Her brush and
pen have combined to make up a lov
ing tribute to old time darkies. They
are there with their touching songs
and sentiment, and we old time mas
ters and mistresses can hardly restrain
our tears while we look and read. The
perfect finish of the old time negro
faces is the most exquisite work of art
I have ever seen. Thanks to Miss
Weeden for her beautiful work.
And I wish also to thank the good
and comrades of the veteran,
M. Campbell, who have re
to the inquiries made in mv
last letter. Those children will ge“t

Clerk* Can Be Garnialieed.
The state supreme court handed
down a decision declaring that the
salary of a railroad clerk, whose duties
required a large amount of copying
with pen and ink and other clerical
work about the office is subject to gar
nishment.
This decision is one of vital inter
est throughout the state, as there are
thousands who have been inclined to
take a different position and have be
lieved that the contrary was true.
The decision also reversed* Judge
Lumpkin’s court, which held a con

CoinminRioner Steve**’ Report.
Commissioner O. B. Stevens has is
sued his partial report of the work ac
comi>lised in the department of agricul
ture since last fall, the time of his as
suming the duties of commissioner.
The report in full is of considerable
length, and is devoted principally to
fertilizers and oils.
The report, which is in the nature
of a monthly talk to the people of the
state, urges upon the farmers a con
tinuance of the reform system of farm
ing and states that everything used
upon the farm Bhould be raised at
home. The commissioner further
urges that the cotton crop be made a
surplus, and calls upon the farmers to
make one more desperate effort to raise
their own provisions.
Will Shoot at Seagirt.
The programme for the 1899 meet
ing of the New Jersey State Rifle as
sociation has been received at Savan
nah. The members of the team that
is practicing for the events are in
specting the programme with great in
terest, as there are a few changes
adopted for the meetiirg this year
with which they wish to become
thoroughly familiar while engaged in
practice and before leaving, for the
scene of action.
The Georgia supreme court has de
cided that the charter of Edgewood,
in DeKalb county was valid and that
the general assembly had the right to
approve the charter under the general
law, which has been in force. This
brings to an end a very interesting
case which has been agitated for some
time past.
Interest In Gold Mining.
Interest in gold mining in Georgia
is on the increase. There is no doubt
that the revival has arrived. For
past years interest in mining for the
yellow metal has flagged in this sec
tion. In 1897 there was general ac-^
tivity. The following year many
pectors came and there was a great
deal of work. But last year the war
came and the gold belt was quiet,
This spring interest revived and the
gold field is again lively.
Tax Commission Hard at Work.
The legislative tax commission,
which has been holding daily sessions
at the capitol for the last three weeks,
will probably not complete the busi
ness in hand until the middle of Au
gust. The object of the commission
is to frame a general tax law for the
consideration of the legislature aud
senate, and it is probable that what
ever action is taken will not be made
public until the complete report of the
commission is presented to the senate
and house.
At the first session of the commis
sion it was decided to hold all the
meetings behind closed doors. The
only objector to this was Senator W.
A. Dodson, president, of the senate,
who contended that the matter before
the commission was a public one and
of considerate interest to the of
Georgia. llojand Ellis,
Hon. however,, took
the position that the work of the com
mission could be better accomplished
by executive sessions, and this met
the approval of the other members of
the body. While no official informa
tion has been given out concerning the
action taken by the tax commission, it
is generally understood that the mem
bers have been active in pushing mat
ters to a close.
Will Meet August 9.
Mr. Samuel Hape, Secretary of the
Georgia State Agricultural Society,
has given notice that the meeting of
the Society will be held at Quitman
on the second Wednesday, August 9th.
* * *
Will Tench Army Officers.
Hereafter the officers of the army
and navy of the United States will be
allowed to take the courses of study
at the Georgia School of Technology
free of charge.
This important step was taken at
the last meeting of the board of trus
tees, and President Lyman Hall was
authorized to act in the matter for the
best interests of tbe school.
It is well known that the shops and
laboratory equipment of the school
are surpassed by but few of tbe large
engineering schools in America, and
the instruction is thorough aud of
high grade. There are always some
young officers near Atlanta pursuing
or anxious to pursue scientific courses
of study,and, as iu the ease of CaptaiD
Wales, who received his degree in
June, they will take advantage of the
opportunities offered.
Hon. Tho*. W. Fain Head.
Hon. Thomas W. Fail), the present
member of the lower house from White
county, died last Thursday. He had
been ill several weeks. This was Mr.
Fain’s second term in the legislature
from White. Many years pgo he
represented Fannin county. Mr. Fain
was known as a conscientious, honest
man. He was loved by all who knew
him and his death will be universally
regretted
Now Foe to Farmer*.
The farmers of Troup county have
found a new adversary, a tiny worm
that is feasting upon the cotton buds
and blooms before the boll is formed
and as a resnlt the cotton is fruitless
and the crop without promise.
For several weeks this worm, un
known to the farmers, has been prey
ing upon the cotton, robbiner if of its
life and bloom, and they decided to
have the worm investigated and sent
an urgent letter to State Entomologist
Scott, asking him to visit their farms
and make an investigation.
The letters received by the state
entomologist state that hundreds of
acres are without any bolls whatever.
Depositories Changed.
Governor Candler has issued an offi
cial order to the tax collectors through
out the state requiring them to make
their future deposits in the state de
positories which was designated in a
proclamation accompanying the order.
The needed changes made in the
banks so be known as state deposito
ries were occasioned from the fact that
many were considered difficult of ac
cess by certain tax collectors.in a num
ber of counties, and the new arrange
ment is thought to solve the problem.
The banks named as depositories in
the official proclamation are as near
the center of certain sections as it was
found possible, and the change.will be
of considerable assistance in the fu
ture to the state tax collectors.
.Captain Satterlee Dead.
Captain Charles B. Satterlee, of the
Third United States artillery, is dead.
The war department has notified Mrs.
Charles B. Satterlee, of Columbia, S.
C., wife of the famous officer, that his
death occurred in Honolulu on July
10th. Captain Satterlee was under
orders to proceed to Manila when he
was attacked with brain fever, result
ing from exposure under the tropical
sun. It was this fever* that subse
quently resulted in his demise,
although the immediate cause of his
death, as announced, was congestion
of the brain.
Captain Satterlee was well known
both in Atlanta and Georgia, He was
stationed at Atlanta as assistant adju
tant general of the state for some
time, being the first regular army offi
cer to hold such a position in Georgia.
* * *
I.aiid Grants Awarded.
Secretary of State Phil Cook, a few
days ago, gave two land grants in
Charlton county aggregating 772 acres,
They were given under the Headright
grant and were for unclaimed lands on
the Satilla river.
Henry Prescott received a grant of
acres of pine islands and swamp
lands, and J. B. O’Quin received 388
acres of similar lands. The grants, in
accordance with the law, were signed
by the governor, the secretary of the
executive department and the secreta
ry of state.
The method of securing lands of this
character is very simple, and the
expenses of getting them is small.
Kntitle.l to Fees.
According to a decision banded down
by the supreme court, Solicitor James
F. O’Neil, of the Atlanta city criminal
court, is entitled to the same fees as
the solicitor general of the state.
The case is of more than ordinary
interest and the decision of the su
preme court settles a point of consid
erable importance. The case grew out
of the petition filed by clerk G. H.
Tanner more than a year ago in which
ho contended that the solicitor of the
criminal court was entitled to the same
reduced felony fees as the solicitor
genera 1 , but that ’he o^ly fees be was
entitled to were those for misdemean
ors. Solicitor O’Neil, howerer, held
that he was entitled to the reduced
felony fees and in consequence a bit
,er fight was inaugurated.
