of the bad things tha- - .mid be

pllatiou, made by ♦he Chicago
Tribune, of the disaster- that Lave
lately come upon the country :
‘ The loss of lives by fio;ds was
aig ity-eight in Kansas, forty in
Missouri, thirty-nine in Illinois,
eighteen in lowa and eight in other
places; total IV3. The property
pas by floods in Kansas, Missouri,
lowa and Illinois was $lB 330,000
and by the South Carolina floods
$3,500,000, a total of $21,830,000
The list of homeless by fl >ods is

stroyed 107 liver, left 000 persons
homeless and caused a property loss
of SOOO,OOO It estimated that the
fur*st fires which have devastated
so large an area of New England,
the Adirondack region, Long Island
and New Jarsey, have destroyed
about $25,000,000 worth of property
and the damage ccoasioned by
the drouth is estimated at
about $75 000,000 Fortunately only
two or three person were burned
by the forest fire The list of home

been considerable, as several small
villages were destroyed, but no es

destructive as daring the last week

A SWORD THRUST.
Gm. James H. Wilson is a sol
dier of distinction and an eminent
scholar. During the war, when
most- of < ur Georgia boys were fight
ing elsewhere, he helped General
Sherman to be “careless with fire,”
on his march to the sea, as Henry
Grady naively expressed it. Gen
eral Wilson, in the course of an ad
dress at a Delaware military school,
advteed hta h *arers, if they desired
t) pursue n military career, to seek
tnenavy, instead of the army, be
cause the navy must have officers
of training and experience to com
mand fleets and ships at sea, while
in the army any sort of political fa
vorites can be given high offices and
put in command over trained and
experienced soldiers.
This wts u thrust ft President
Roosevelt and Mijor-General Wood,
who, by executive favoritism, was
rapidly jumped from the poaition
of a surgeon to a major-general
ship, an?, is marked as the coming
general of the United States army.
General Wilson rubbed the pepper
in more severely. He added :
“It is more than probable that for
the next half century, at least, the
naval officers will have more chan
ces for distinction and glory than
the army officers ; and, besides, it
is perfectly certain that in that ser
vice no doctor of medicine, however
distinguished, will ever be jumped
over the heads of either the captains
or the admirals. It is perfectly
certain, also, that whatever may be
done in the army, no outsider —vol-
unteer or mere political leader—will
ever be put in command of an Amor
turn battleship or fleet.”
It is no doubt, says the Augusta
Chronicle, very galling to the West
Point officers, of high rank and long
and conspicuous service, to see De.
Wood turned so speedily into a
major-general, but no one we be
lieve has so bluntly voiced this re
sentment as did General Wilson. It
is said that Caligula appointed his
horse first consul. We have not
and will not come to that; but it is
truly Rooseveltian to pick out his
doctor friend and advance him to
the first place in the regular army.
There is nothing like being prime
favorite at oourL.
It may be that General Wood has
a Napoleonic genius for war, but
you will not so convince General
Witeon and tho West Point officers
of high grade and eminent service.

Griggs Endorses Hard
wick’s Plans;
When Hon. T. W. Hardwick
made bis race for congress in the
Tei th last year on ths sole issue of
repealing the negro suffrage amend
ments to the Federal constitution,
his opponent, the veteran Congress
man Fleming, laughed at the idea
and most of Congressman Fleming s
class laughed with him and pro
nounced it absurd and impractica
ble. Nevertheless, Mr. Hardwick
won the nominatieu.
The News and Sun was not among
those laughed at any time, and
at the n quest, of the editor Mr,
Hardwick made a more elaborate
exposition of his views to a large
crowd at the annual reunion of the
correspondents ass elation of this
paper at Concord a few months
later, and the same wag also pub
lished In this paper Thus another
great constituency was reached.
Events move rapily these days.
Several States have made further
encroachments on the colored
brother’s privileges and have been
sustained by the supreme court.
The North is rapidly becoming ed
ucate 1 to their own peril as well as
the real status of the case and omy
perfunctory protest is made.
Now comes Congressman J. M.
Griggs, of the Second, chairman of
the Democratic congressional com
mittee, a gentleman of the highest
ablity, standing and influence
among Republican as well as Dem
ocratic members, and fully endorses
all that Mr. Hardwick said. Cer
tainly that gentleman’s triumph
has begun sooner than might have
been expected, and the News and
Sun extends the hearty hand of
congratulations. The endorsement
was made in an address before the
Technological Institute Wednesday
and following are a few of the per
tinent paragraphs:
“Tht»e is probably not a white
man in one 6t the so-called negro
Stales who would not gladly see the
repeal of the constitutional amend
ments making the negro acitizm.
While this is true there is a disposi
tion in some quarters of the South
to laugh at the efforts of earnest
patriotic men in this direction.
There is no complete salvation for
the South outside of this one thing,
my fellow citizens of Georgia.
“Separation of the races would be
best for white and black alike, but it
seems that neither race is yet ready
for that. The time will be, however,
in the years to come when the man
hood of the country, North and
South, white and black alike, will
demand it. It will r.ot coma in our
generation. We shall live to see
the repeal of these amendments.
Separation will follow disfranchise
ment as the night the day. A Union
half white and haff black can live
no more than a Union ‘half slave
and half free.’
“The cupidity of the white man
and the stupidity of the negro will
delay this consummation, but it is
sure to come, and I believe as sure
ly as the sunrise tomorrow morn
ing.
“As I said, however, that is not
to be now. Neither race is now
prepared for it, and only disfran
chisement is left to insure the white
control so necessary to tha peace
and prosperity of the South. Un
der these circumstances, is it right,
my fellow citizens? Who questions
it? If right, why should Southern
whi'e men stand all the day idle?
The negro could not be less a faotur
in the political life of the South, if
disfranchised, than he now is. No
one need fear the oppression of the
negro if denied by law the privilege
of voting. He is a menace and a
scarecrow now, not a factor in de
termining political issues. His
rights are guaranteed to him now
only through white judges and
white jurors in all the States of the
South. That would not be changed.
The right to vote is now scamily
exercised in all the States. I said
the right. I should have said the
privilege.
“Political privileges are not grant
ed us a matter of right; grunted by
grace. They are the uo lievements
of the individual, and eternal vig
ilance and untiring courage is their
price. Some men are born free;
some are made free; and some
achieve freedom. Tne first and
last classes are those who are really
free, and constant struggle is the
price of presarving their liberties.
The others, possessing that which
was obtained through no personal
effort or sacriiiee,neither understand
nor appreciate its meaning. Con
stant struggle is the price of life.
Taat which we cill tha business
world is an everlasting warfare
governed by the Inexorable law of
the ‘survival of the fittest.’
“If the negro in the South is op
pressed either by law or in fact let
him follow ths white man’s exam
ple, let. him find and make for him
self a home. He need not- complain
of poverty because the poverty of
the negro cannot surpass that ot
the Pilgrim fathers and the debt
rid len Cavaliers who first settled
on our shores.
“ ‘Be ye not unequally yoked to
gether, 'is as applicable to us as to
the Corinthian Christian, for ‘What
communion is there between light
and darkness?’
“Tho repeal of the constitutional
amendments conferring suffrage
will be only preliminary to final
separation. Disfranchisement will
come first in the States of the South.
It will finally become law in all the
Stites. The negro will turn for a
a home to those States guaranteeirg
the greatest privileges to him A»
his numbers increase in these States
and he encroaches upon the privi
leges of the white man he will in
turn be disfranchised there, and will
seek other homes, until fl tally,
under the impulse of race prids,
which daring iho»e years will grow
strong within him, lie will establish
somewhere with the white man’s
help, an abiding place. This, ladies
and gentlemen, is the only solution
ot thia question.
* F.nilly, ft How citizens, the
greatest struggle of a}l will one day
ornae—the final contest for suprem
acy between the white and colored
races. B? ‘colored’ Ido not mean
the negro race alone. In that con
test on one side will be arrayed all
whi'e men of the world, and on the
other, all the yellow, red, biown
and black men of the world. When
t atc.inflict comes, the American
n gto will not ally himself with ue.
Remembering the wrongs to him
self and his father from the time
when Noah sett Ham out with a
curse upon him, until today, he will
forget that he is an American citi
zen and remember only that he is a
negro. He would stand as yen
would stand, as I would stand—wi h
his own race, with his own color,
with hie own blood, against what is
to him an alien race, an alien cokr
and an alien blood.
“To weaken the white race in the
South is to weaken the white race
everywhere. To strengthen us is
to strengthen the arm which one
day must be tested in this great con
test for world control between the
white and the colored, races.
“Our fellow citiaens of Caucasian
blood who are n it now struggling
with this problem at their doors
will not refuse to listen to their
Brethren of the South. We are all
of the same blood. We have fought
the same fight to reclaim the wil
derness and to establish and guaran
tee life and liberty to ourselves and
our children.”
Worst of AU Experiences
Can anything be worse shan to
feel that every minute will be your
last? Such was the experience of
Mrs. S H. Newson, Decatur, Ala
“For three years,” she writes, “I
endured insufferable pain from in
digestion, stomach and bowel
trouble. Death seemed inevitable
when doctors and all remedies fail
ed. At length I was induced to try
Electric Bitters and the result was
miraculous. I improved at once
and now I’m completely recovered.”
For liver, kidney, stomach and
bowel troubles Electric Bitters is
the only medicine. Only 500. It’s
guaranteed by Carlisle & Ward and
Brooks Drug Store.
