The average Georgia farmer will plant the average acreage in cotton this spring despite the prospect <>l lower prices next fall titan was ever known before. With four candidates in the field the contest in the Fifth congression ill district will be a livcv one. \\ ith the trio of vigorous campaigners - agin” him, the “colonel" had bet ter look to his laurels. Tin* hirllidav of Ot*n. Leo was up propiiately celebrated iu all tin larger cities of the State. There .is no name dearer or more sacred t the Sou.! ern l.esivt than Uohvrt K.

The withdrawal of Mr. from the gubernatorial contest the tunc ta-ic-‘gives Mr. Candler clear field, Other candidates probably soon enter the field, in meantime. Mr. Candler, strong, is rapidlrgaining ground. Farming in Georgia ca' i be to pay handsomely and this fact been demonstrated conclusively by tlie fiw energetic and intelligent farmers in all sections of the State, who have not confined themselves t< cultivating cotton to the exclu sion of better paying crops.

Tlie riots in llavanua have sifiisid ed. The autonomy proilV-refl tin Cubans by Spain lias been rejected. The insurgents are still vigorous and determined. Gen.

M< re than ei iity tho urnd 'UNd c ativcs of tli' 1 cotton .rnilN in and Massa-husetts went out on a strike last Monday on account of a of more than 10 cent, of their wages, This strike inaugu rates what will probably develop into one of the greatest struggles lietweei capital and u bor in the history of cotton n un i ' a till ing in the United States. The fact is becoming more apparent daily, tha‘ the only solu tion of the constant struggles be tween the mill .lien and operatives is the removal of the mills to the •ott >n fieid which will enable the mill owners to pay better wages and at the same time realize better profits. There is every indication hat the capitalists will be forced to 'ale lb's step eventually and the sooner they realize the fact the l)Ct • dl'.

In view of corrupt methods adopt ed to control the ignorant negro vote m iUivnt municipal elections throughout the State, Georgia should follow tlie exainole of South Caro lina, -Mississippi and Louisiana in so amending the constitution of the State as to eliminate this class of voters by ail educational or property qualification. There is a strong probability that negroes will be appointed to the po sitions of post master and collector of customs at Savannah, In a re cent interview with Senator Hanna, by a citizen of Savannah, the boss is quoted as saying: “The slate made up by the regular republican organi zation ought to go through.” This wauld seem to settle Ihe matter.
