of Spalding county and the City
if GritftL
Ths seventh annual convention of
the Georgia Bankers* Association will
ba held at Tybee next Wednesday and
Thursday. More than 100 bankers
Iron all parts t 4 the state,representing
every bank in the association, are ex
pected to be there.
Santiago, says the Savannah Press,
is the place where a Spanish com
mander stood several doxeq Americans
against a wall and then shot item to
death not so many years ago. Probe*
bly the gunners on Samj can’s ships
remember the Virginias as well ae tbe
■> Maine.

The Bl Petersburg Novoati says
that “America must voluntarily sub
mit her pretensions to a tribunal of
the poweta.” Russia ought to know by
this time that America doesn't under
stand the meaning of the word “mu it”
as applied to any voluntary action
Chicago Times Herald.
Those Democrats who insist that
tbe issues of 1896 must ba fought over
will be unable to derive the least en
couragement from the slate elaciidn
io Oregon, where the issues of 1896
have just boon fought over. If tbe
fight in Oregon ends in such sweepini;
losses lor the Chicago platform, in
what spot of the entire country can a
fight ba made with a hope of gains for
the advocates ol that ' platform ?
Louisville Courier Journal.

It is not to be expected that Lieut.
Hobson and bis gallant band ol herces
will bo released by the Spaniards at
Santiago immediately. They have
undoubtedly learned too much about
the defenses of the port and the condi
tion of the Spanish forces for either
Cervera or Blanco to permit them to
return to tbe American ships al once.
They will probably be kept within tbe
Spanish lines until such as their in
formation can be of no service to the
American commanders.
W. H. Wheeler draWe attention in
Nature to the effect of galea on tide less
lakes and seas, which, he says, is at
times so marked ae to cause consider
able inconvenience and anxiety to
marines Thue in the Caspian sea a
gale will raise the water on one side
eix feet and depress it on the other as
much, making a total difference of
level of twelve feet. In the Baltic
eastern galas will alter the level up
ward of eight feet. In Lake Erie de
pressions and elevations of from two
to four feet are common, while orcas
sionally heavy gales have produced a
difference of level of upward of fifteen
feet.
The truth is the Spanish diplomat*
ials, like the Spanish soldiers, have
some radical defect which pots them
out of touch with all the rest of the
world. If this were not co, assuredly
Spanish statesmen would achieve
sometbing4rom tbe sacrifices tbe na
tion baa always made of men aad
money io tbe ever losing enterprise of
maintaining great colonies in unwill
ing connect ion with the mother coun
try Whether at home or abroad the
nation is constantly retrograding. On
ly the genius of a Metternich or a Bis
marck could stay tbe crumbling ruin,
but Spain baa lost tbe power to breed
such moo.—Louisville Courier-Jour

tale, end Itkewiae a ffiOO.OOO Ebel suit.
Several days ago s corporal and three
soldiers were sent on board the
Buocbanesr at Tampa. This was in
mat ion of the transfer of the
boat from Mr. Hearst's private owner
ship to the service of the government
Il oeome that the Now York World did
not know this. At all events it did
not publish tbe facto ae they were, for
the World printed aarory from Tampa
to the effect that a guard bad been
placed on the boat to prevent her from |
leaving the harbor with government
plans which it was supposed the cor*
respondenta on board wished to tele
graph to Mr Hearst’s paper. The
telegram printed in the World, which
involves a charge of treason against
Mr. Hearst and his paper correspond*

for libel against the World, in which
the damages art placed at $500,000
