Congressman Livingston for t " e

being mentioned in connection with

Another cull for
Phillipinos will be made bv the See
relary of war at an early day. it is
the intention of the War Department
to send sufficient men to tho I’bllll- j
pines to end the struggle therein ns
short n time ns possible. There is no 1
doubt of the fact that these Island?
are a considerable elephant <m that Un-j
cle Sam’s hands and it seems
thcre is no immediate prospect of his
being able to tuiii it looso.
Wallace Putnam Heed, in Hie Bun¬
ny South, writes nil interesting arti¬
cle on Congressman Livingston. Ho
gives a brief hiktory of liis carter and
proclaims him one of the leading
and most useful men in the country,
lie couples his mime with the Fed¬
eral Semite and predicts that lii.s peo¬
ple will call him to this high office.
He thinks him the, most itdluenlil
member of Congress rrom the south
and says many very complimentary
things of him.
The Fort Gains Sentinel says:—
“Cotton mills should hum in every
Southern town and city. Tlie field is
vast; it cannot he overrun.
community should have a metory
some kind, and altogether tho South
would be able to make all it us< s as
well ns all it cuts at homo, besides
successfully competing with North on
and foreign made goods in every
market.”
Tlie Sentinel is very correct in its
utterances above and we hope it may
lire to see the South prospering along
the line of its suggestion.
Fanners arc always being urged io
“live nt home;” to make all they
need on their farms and become pros
porous. “Sauce for the geeso should
bo sauce for the gamier” mid those
who thus advise the farmer .should
be able to apply tlie hint in the fol¬
lowing item from the Macon Even¬
ing' News:—“A representative of a
Northern house sold a car load of
leather in Macon the other day, and
at the same time bought a car load
of hides. The freight on the leather
coining anti the hides going amoun¬
ted to over a hundred dollars ami
tlie leather and the profit might have
been made in Mr,eon.”
Not a day passes lint that , tho news
is flashed over the wires from some
section of the south to the daily pa
pors, that some black brute lias
raged a white lady. Frx*m one to
five occurrences of this kind is the
daily average in the south, and not
one-halt of tlie assail ants are sum
warily dealt with. In any commu¬
nity in this country lyncli-law will
prevail under such circumstances.
The situation is becoming more and
more alarming and the white men
of the country are determined to
make quick and terrible punishment
for every fiend in human form that
outrages humanity by such loul
crime.
