The Survival of the Fittest.
WAYNESBORO. GA„ SEPT, 15, 1S00.
Admiral Dewey and Tom Reed
are carving up their dead silence
and putting the same on ice.
The effects of tho Hague Peace
Conference has been working back
ward ever since, says the Philadel
phia Ledger.
The threat “to tell the trusts” did
not bring Mr. T. B. Reed to the
stump for Hanna-Mack. Is Tom a
sulker or a patriot? W’y yes of
course he is.
The mayor of Atlanta can repeat
the old song with safety,
•‘Got drunk last night;
Was drunk tho night Ueiore;
I’m good drunk right now,
And I’ll be drunk some more.”
The New York Livening Post, an
anti-expansionist, has been quoting
Geo. F. Hoar. If the quotation had
leit out the name of Hoar all might
have gone well, but the political
empiric that refuses his own medi
cine is hardly worth mentioning.
There never was a time when the
Republicans were so put to it for a
defense. They haug the old ghost of
16,10 l out on all occasions- It is the
very best they can do for a scare
crow big enough for imperialism
and trusts to hide behind. It will
not do. The whole outside Ameri
can world sees them through the
gauzy specter,
Carl Schurz says: “Even if it were
that Bryan, if elected, would lead
us into a revolution, such a revolu
tion would not be nearly as danger
ous as that which is inevitable un
der a policy of imperialism. More
over, the results of an internal revo
lution could be softened down much
sooner than the complete overthrow
of the fundamental principles of our
democracy.”
President McKinley, who is fast
developing into the very worst of
political frauds, jumped quickly to
a consent that Waldersee, the Ger
man general, should command our
forces in China. And pray what
has Waldersee done but jun
ket around Europe, taking farewell
dinners and stately functional good-
bys, while affairs in China waited
on the titled commander’s pleasure.
But McKinley has gotten in his
ffne work on the German vote all
the same, and he and his boss Han
na smile blandly at the trick. He
fails to see how ridiculous h.s atti
tude in playing with imperial po
tentates across the ocean.
found safety in storm-pits, as they
were called, but it was never resort
ed to universally. Those who had
suffered trusted that it would never
happened again and left their desti
nies in the hands of fate on the
idea that tornadoes or lightniug
would never strike in the same place
twice.
Galveston ha3 suffered, it may be,
untold horrors from carelessness or
neglect.

“The full dinner pail” is rung for
all it is worth by the Republicans
of the North; but during all these
years of McKinley in the South
with 4-cent cotton not a sound was
uttered to the poor struggling plan
ter, white nor black, by trie prosper
ous North about the full dinner
pail. What infinite cheek these
Northern Republicans have now in
ringing it in the South and talking
of McKinley prosperity after Goo
Almighty has brought about cir
cumstances that have given 10 cents
cotton to our farmers who haven’t
for years before known what the
full dinner pail meant in this land
of universal freedom; freedom that
would let him starve to death on
his own account while they talk of
McKinley prosperity.
Col. Roosevelt is bordering on the
act of lugging in the old time
bioody-shirt work. He begins to
“hurl back with scorn” Mr. Bryan’s
charge of governing the blacks in
the Philippines without their con
sent, and charges the disfranchising
the blacks in the South. We know
of no disfranchsing in the United
States- Some states have election
laws which require a voter to give
his consent before he can vote and
to prevent his being voted without
Knowing whether ne has any con
sent to give and what that consent
is. It would be well to say-
pertinent to say the least—that
Roosevelt forgot to mention the
fact that Georgia refused the law
that oven hinted at disfranchising
any of her citizens and that Geor
gia is in the van of those states con
demning the cruel warfare made
on the poor Fiiipinos by American
soldiers, driven from their own fire
sides, butchered without mercy and
whose property is looted while the
poor wretches flee from death or lie
slaughtered. No more unholy war
was ever waged and Col. Roosevelt
is a great humbug in trying to call
off attention from these stubborn
facts.
that Galveston horror.
Tbe storm that destroyed Galves--
ton ought to put the world to think
ing very seriously. The storm of
3875 that proved so destructive to
that city should have warned the in
habitants of its reccurrence and
make them solicitous for protection.
It does not appear to have done so,
aud every one lived as if he or she
had seen the last storm that would
ever visit the fated city. It seems al
most incredible that tire people
should have been lulled into a
dream of security on the very edge
of the sea with only six feet above
the ocean level. This must be a
mistake. Surely it was thirty or
more feet above low tide. Be that
as it may a wall of sand could have
been constructed by the sea itself
taking advantage of the wind and
tides. The storm that proved de
structive to hotels and private
houses at Tybee a few years ago
visited the force of wave power on
those structures outside of the sand
dunes that fortify the interior of the
island from end to end. Nothing
inside of these natural forts were
injured. It is dedueible from this
that any city like Galveston could
have been saved from wave power
in the same way if some one with
skill could have in like manner used
the sand to contrive tbe most pow
erful obstruction to tbe waves. The
people of Galveston seems to have
done nothing, trusting to fate all
they possessed on earth. Even the
United States’ government left its
soldiers exposed to death from sheer
neglect or blind trust that nothing
worse than the past could ever
occur.

Looking Out for No. 1.
Nothing is more uncertain than
the duration of a single life, but
nothing is more certain than the
mortality of a given number ol
lives. The greatest value of life in
surance lies in the absolute certain
ty of its calculations. It requires
none of your time or attention and
causes no care or worry. li
strengthens your credit and is ab
solutely yours. It goes where you
wish it to go. It is “looking out for
number one.” It is “salting away”
something for a “rainy day.” It
gives constant satisfaction that no
other piece of property can produce
for you.
Life insurance is something more
than a privilege—it is a necessity.
It is a social, domestic and person
al duty. It is incumbent on ever}
man who has, or may have, some
body else dependent on him. Life
insurance is a creator of wealth, a
defender ot home, and a provider
against want. A life insurance pol
