He’s just a natu¬ ral born durned fool.” A South Georgia exchange says: “The mosquito fleet has failed to observe the provisions of the proc tocol. Nightly attacks continue to be made.” The Argus calls upon Senators Olay and Bacon to oppose the con¬ firmation of Capt. Sampson’s un¬ deserved promotion, its eonfir mation would be a gro^s outrage. —Dalton Argus. **»«*»*.•.—■» 1 —mu*— The war is over and the 8000 Georgia hoys should be given pass¬ es home. If John Candler and the other officers want to stay, cut their wages to $16.50 a month—all they are worth—and send them to Santiago. We arc getting a little tired of this “hero” business. Every fel¬ low who has popped a cap since May 1st is a “hero, ) 1 The fact is this hero business is being woeful¬ ly overworked, and the lustre of the real heroes is being dimmed by cheap newspaper notoriety and jack-in-the-box political promo mot ions.

Their cases are solutely hopeless.—Sparta lite. Some of the members of a Kan¬ sas regiment, stationed in ia, dug up the bones of a ate ollicer. It was their purpose to carry them home as trophies. Isn’t it glorious to be permitted march under the samo flag with Buch infernal ghouls? How nice it ia to love such devils, and to re¬ joice with them over the alleged abolition of sectional lines ami obliteration of sectional animosi¬ ties! Lying and bypoerasy are being paraded as national virtues, but the Ishinaelite is not marching in the procession.—Sparta Ishma? lite. The annexation of Cuba to the United States is one of the inevitable occurrences of fu¬ ture history, and it will be to the advantage of the island if the^e shall be as little delay tion. as possible in its con su mm a It was not for the ter ritonal absorption of the is land 1 u that , .! this *• nation , • went , to . Mai. Timm 1 here luh u-K a o distinct declaration that the sole ob— ject of our military inter fer ence was to put an mid to the ruinous rule of Spain and to releive the people of the is land from the Ions evils of Spanish misgoveinment. The right tortile themselves was incidental to the pur- pose of our inteference. which, without being incon¬ sistent with our declared ob¬ ject, may be modified by what may appear to be the capacity or incapacity of the Cubans for self-government. would The United Statss not be justified in allowing the a condition of disorder in islands that would be as great an evil as Spanish rule. There is reported to be a preference for immediate an nexation on the part of some Cuban leaders, with whose, aspiration for American cit¬ izenship President McKin ley is said to be in accord. Our government will pursue no course in this matter that will conflict with its a vowal of disinterested mo¬ tives in acting for the relief of Cuba from the disastrous domination of Spain. There is every probability, however of the appearance of circum¬ stances under which the an nexation . . of r. the . , island • i t Will mi he as necessary for its wel fare as war its liberation from Spanish misrule, We believe that the people of the island, very shortly afer affairs, peace shall settle the state will be in fine need, by the con¬ viction that their- best inter¬ ests will he promoted by their being invested with A merica.n citizenship and will ask for the annexation of their island to the United States. To us this appears to be manifest destiny.—Sa vannah Press. ■ Heals BBH j j (1 11 Running | 0k Sores. | [(Cures H the 5erpenfs Cl « Sting.
