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 pension.— Bill Arp, in Atlanta RACE TROUBLES IN ARKANSAS. Arise In Armed Force Against the White People. A special from Pine Bluff, Ark., Information received at 11 Thursday night indicates that the negroes of Lake Village, Chicot have arisen in an armed force against the white people of that Lake Village is the county seat and is about twenty-five miles n railroad. The negroes of that portion of the state largely outnum bered the white population. PHEN1X CITY FIRE SWEPT. Alabama Town I.«»m Some of Tier llest Knll.liiiKS In Conflagration. Fire wiped out the principal busi ness street of Plienix City, Ala., just across the Chattahoochee river from Columbus, Ga., Sunday night. Over R dozen stores in the heart of town were l)Urne d and it looked at one time as if the entire place would be swept out of existence. The buildings destroyed wore the best in the town . j ti is estimated that j. be ] ca8 WftS 110 ^ even j ia )f covered by i usura uce. • AN ACTRESS BANKRUPT. -- Sboghian fid* » rctition in united Stntes District Court. Bose Coghbn, the actress, filed a voluntary petition iu bankruptcy iu the clerk’s office of the United States distriot court at New York Saturday under the name of Rosamond Maria Sullivan. Her petition places her liabilities at $28,830. The only assets named are ufeysary .f-AO wearing claimed apparel , all valued at and to be exempt. About $15,000 indebtedness is in judg ments. STRIKERS USE DYNAMITE. Street Car Trouble In Cleveland, Ohio, Not Yet Settled. Dynamite .. was -used , , by the street strikers at Cleveland, Ohio, Thursday night and Friday evening, causing considerable property damage ahd badly frightening peojle in the neighborhood of the explosions.

OTIS MAKES ANSWER To tli® “Kouml Robin” of Newspaper Correspondents. The war department has issued a statement quoting certain dispatches from General Otis iu answer to the press correspondents’ “round robin.’’ The general says iu substance that the correspondents , wish . , to send state lue,lt8 that 1IU P« nl operations; that *¥/ llR(1 110 specification to support charges against him, and these charges were untrue.

Happenings In the State of Inter esting Import. 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 trary opinion. ♦ * * 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.
