BULLOCH ■ 1 -: • v OL.VIl. NO. 7. WAR IWS. • t* lat Has Been Dole TMs M ---• -« At the close of last week’s news the United States determined to send a fleet to bombard the Span ish coast. Admiral Camara of the Cadiz fleet had left and the way was clear, so Commodore Watson was ordered from t e blockading squadron before ITa vana to take command of this fleet, which will be composed of the Oregon, Iowa, Indiana and Beyeral other war ships. He wii} sail for Spain immediately. Admiral Camara was stopped at the Suez canal nearly a week on account of the complications the neutral powers, England tak jug the lead in hindering his movements. The latest reports say that he has gotton through but Dewey is ready for him. The belated reinforcements have ar rived at Manilla, having captured the Spanish Ladrone island on the route. As soon as the transports ara^ved nearly all of the foreign WU r vessels left the harbor gnd the feared German complications van¬ ished. Dewey cabled that he would probably capture the city on July 4. Gen. Merritt has eail-d from San Francisco and has takfn a large stgff of civilians who are experts iu civil government to aiej him in establishing his govern? mnnt over the Philippines. President McKinley has ordered a blockade of the southern coast of Cuba. The St. Paul, Capt. Sigsbee, was attacked by a Spanish torpedo boat and a cruiser al SanJuau bt(t ran both of them bapk into tfle harbor of Porto Rico disabled 8pd destroyed a provision steamer. The Yankee captured and de¬ stroyed five Spanish craft on tbe coast of Cuba on June 28. Gen. Wheeler made a recon noissance near Santiago Friday and though sixty-two years old, dismounted and climbed a tree to get a better view of the enemy. Qn tflat day, Jjjly great fighting bpgan all around Santiago and poptinued until Sunday morning. Yfie Americans yyere strung out from Morro fort to the northeast of the city and made a grand ad¬ vance all along the line. The Spaniards made strong resistance but were driven back by our men, who captured 2,000 Spaniards and took possession of their outer works, but our losses were heavy. The Spaniards were iu rifle pits behind ditches and wire fences, etc.; while our men had to fight in the oppn field. It was repprled that vye i|ad lost jn killed and Wounded 1,000 men, but on a fiual count ouly 150 were h'Ued out of about 1,000 wounded, nearly all of whom will recover, The per centage of officers killed was very heavy, several colonels, captaius and lieutenants being among the number. Oue Spanish general was killed and Gen. Linares was zeverely wounded, This’ is ac¬ counted for by the fact that our officers lead their brave commands. The Spaniards lost several thou¬ sand. Our men pressed right up tbe city and were compliment¬ ed by tbe president for their bravery. Gen. Shafter found that the Spaniards had been heavily rein¬ forced and asked for more men to and' mnforcpments . *ake tfle city flaye been ordered frorn Tampa anfi Cflipamau«?a via Charleston imd Savannah, Just at this point, Sunday morn iug, the greatest victory imagina blfl came to us. Cervera dashed out of the harbor with his entire fleet and it completely destroyed by Commodore Schley, and the country is wild over the victory. Sampson was not expectiug any¬ thing and had just got on the beach about ten miles east of the harbor to consult with Shafter when a roar from Schley’s 13-inch guns revealed the Spanish fleet coming around Morro point. Be¬ fore Sampson could get back all the Spanish ships were destroyed except the Christobol Colon. The New York, Iowa and Brooklyn chased her about sixty miles and destroyed her. Admiral Cervera and 1,300 Spaniards were taken prisoner. When the Spanish officers were taken on board the Gloucester and given quarters they ga ^ (j 0W11 very philosophically to smoking and playing cards. Cor V era was was complimented for jjj s He said he had rather p e killed fighting on the O p 0n gea than shot like a rat in a trap. He and his men will be taken to Fort McPhsarson. As soon as Shafter’s army hoard of the destruction of the Spanish fleet the cheering was loud and ] 0 ng a ij along the line and the general ran up a flag of truce and sent a demand to General Linares bo surrender the city. The latter aB ked for twenty-four hours time y V hich was granted. At the end 0 f b jjat time he refused and now the foreign consuls are trying to induce him to surrender to tho inevitable and save many lives. If a surrender is not made Samp¬ son wilj enter fhe h. rtnr and the pity will attacked from land and sea. ♦ tVAB MESSAGES.

They had music and song, wit and hu¬ mor, the country boy and the country girl, the lawyer and the pre fe3sor, eloquence and oratory, preaching and praying, and well nigh everything from “a hot time iu tho old town tonight,” to a revival of religion. But Mr. Up¬ shaw showed a strong point of keen diplomacy in dovetailing into his lecture a plea for Mercer university by singing and having the string band to play a Mereor college song. But, there was a young Georgia University boy in the audience who was equal to the occasion and displayed most splendid daring as well as love for his grand old alma mater by rising and giving the university yell just as the Mercer song closed. Mr. Upshaw was amazed, but pro¬ ceeded to make an eloquent speech for Mercer and continued to en¬ tertain the large audience assem¬ bled to hear him. If a young man of his infirmity can do so well iu this life no other boy with health and strength need to sit down and say, “Oh, every¬ thing is agin me,” and lead a life of ignorance and obscurity. --*-►»-r Aflvertisimr in flip Tnrm anything so our patrons say.

These injured berries begin to appear while tbe fruit is young and green and as it ripens they lucre a so in number. Frequently several of these discolored and shriveled berries will be fastened together by si.ken tbroaos in termixed with the excrement of tbo larvm and the sticky grape juice. The appearance is not unlike that of black rot. When full grown, tho larva attains a length of about one-third of an inch, and, abandoning the grape, cuts out of a grape leaf a little flap which it folds and fastens with silk, forming a little oblong case in which it changes to a chrysalis, a little slato offered moth ap in 10 or 13 Our grape berry moth is widely dis tributed, occurring probably wherever tbe grape is grown to any extent, from Canada to Florida and westw ard to Oal ifornia. It attacks all varieties, but is especially destructive to grapes with tender skins and such as grow in com pact bunches. It is probably three brood od, except in its more northern range, the first brood developing;, on tbe loaves in May and June, the second brood on green grapes in July, and the third brood on ripening grapes in August and September. The early brood of this in sect Is so scanty that it is rarely noticed, and hence protective steps are seldom taken. Later iu the season it multiplies with grea. r.piai.y, ^ p.r.fc.l.,., does it beoomo numerous and destruc tive if grape gathering be deferred until a late period.

Marlutt, entomologist, says the use of poisons flj not practica¬ ble as a Remedy exoept against the first brood. Bagging as soon as the first grapes set is recommended, but of greater value is the prompt collection and burning of all fallen leaves in an tumn, thus destroying the hibernating larv® and also the collection and de¬ struction of diseased fruit. The Plow a Back Number. H. W. Collingwood, in an address at the recent meeting of tbe New Jersey State Horticultural society, remarked: I believe tbat a great many farmers and fruit growers have come to the conclu¬ sion that tbe old fashioned plow is a back number. On my farm l plowed only two acres last year and I was sorry I did that. On a light sandy loam the cutaway harrow does better work than the plow, because we do not want to plow so deep. Our land has been plowed to death. We use the disk harrow and tbe ordinary cutaway harrow, instead of the plow. We concluded tbat there was something the matter with our soil, or with tbo wood ashes, as it did not bring a good crop. My experience bas convinced me tbat the ashes contain lime and that tbe stable manure is al¬ kaline, which acts contrary to the solu¬ bles in the soil. I don’t believe in turn¬ ing it from the bottom side up. I be¬ lieve that those disks and outaway har¬ rows are better than plows. Fertiliser Facts, It fr a well known fact that practi¬ cally all the mixed fertilizers sold tank¬ in Ohio are made of three materials, age, acid phosphate and muriate of pot¬ ash. Tankage is a waste product of the great slaughtering establishments, be¬ ing tbe settlings in the tanks in which the scraps and offal are rehtlered to ex¬ tract their grease. These settlings are dried and ground into a fine meal, and either sold direct for fertilizing purposes of first mixed with other materials. Tankage, like bono meal, is useful as a carrier of both ammonia and phos¬ phoric acid. It differs from bone in car¬ rying a larger percentage of ammonia (6 to 10) and a smaller proportion of phos phario acid. The phosphoric acid of botfi bone and tankage is somewhat slower in than tpat of acid phosphate, hit when finely ground it soon becomes available by decay in the soil.— Ohte Station Bulletin. TRIAL BY JURY. 0 ?ermncut by Injunction Will Not Be Tolerated In Tills Country. Railway workers to the number of 600 passed an important resolution in their convention held in Pittsburg. Gov eminent by injunction was disenssed in the convention referred to, and the fol lowing resolution was adopted: ‘That wo believe the right of trial by jury is just as sacred today as it ev er has been, and that we view With alarm the aggressive tendency of some of our judges in their attempts to serve corporate interests through tho guise of proceedings, whereby both tbe spirit and the letter of tho constitution are violated, and we denounce snob ac tious as judicial tvrauuy, and wo urge our two United Statos souators and con gressmen to use their iullucuco and votes iu behalf of the referred to bill.” No one who wishes well to the poople ought to critp.ise this resolution.

Thera can bo no sort of doubt that Mr, Bryan received iu New Orleans a welcome oi unparalleled warmth and enthusiasm. Those Democrats who refused to accept tho Chicago platform in 1896 wore as zealous and as cordial in their attention os the other Democrats, a vast majority, who stood by the party and its candi date.” Under the circumstance it would perhaps be just as well for tho gold clique journals to restudy the theory tbat“silver sentiment is dead.” Differ¬ ences of opinion among Democrats are boiug harmonized, and Secretary Gaga has been forcod to admit tbat the battle of standards will have to be fought over again in 1900. This is not a propitions time to discuss political questions, but it is just as well to call attention to tho fact that rumors of war, or even war itself, cannot divert the thoughts of tho people from the vital question. DEMOCRATIC REVIVAL. Results of Spring Elections Speak Hope fully For Next Fall. Municipal . . , ejections , were held in in extent and force of the Democratic) yival throughout tbo country In Ohio tho Democrats earned Cincinnati, San dusky, Mansfield (John Sherman s home), Loudon, Zanesville and m y ethor places. Their majorities were gen erally large in proportion to the vote and were decisive. TH Republicans carried the smaller cities, which are their strongholds, but tho majorities u all eases were small, merely enough to save them from general defeat. Similar results occurred in Michigan. No elec¬ tion was held in Detroit, but that city gave an overwhelming Democratic ma¬ jority last year, when the present mu¬ nicipal officers were choseu. In Grand Rapids, tbe second ofiv Uot in the state, the Republicans were only defeated; but routed and snowed under. The Dem¬ ocrats elected all the city officers aud a large majority of the aldermen, 1 Tho Democrats had sweeping victo¬ ries in Saginaw, Manistee, St. Iguace. Sturgis and many other towns. As in Ohio, the Republicans carried the small chronic cities of that party, but by greatly reduced majorities. Tbo ad¬ vance wave of the Democratic revivals is here. There is no doubt tbat tbe stt«to elections to bo held this year wilpiol low the line the of tho municipal^lections for national,Dem¬ and preparo way a ocratic victory in 1900. / ‘ * ; Seran Tiling.

Tbo weakness is an inability to digest their food with¬ out clean grit of some sort to go with it into the gizzard, or to digest sour and moldy dough or moldy grain under any conditions. We have seen some such cases, and we always found either this or lice in abundance to bo the causo of the trouble. Thero may be a constitu¬ tional lack of vigor which causes chick¬ ens to die in tbe shell before they aro sufficiently developed to break out and which oauses well cared for chickens to grow very slowly and mature late, and even to be generally worthless after they have matured, but we ascribe these to the breeding fowl having been mado foo fat or to having been weaken¬ ed by some disease like the roup. Sud¬ den deaths in great numbers after the chi, kens are hatched and growing well are usually due to a lack of vigor on the part of tbe keeper.
