AUGUSTA READY AND WILLING TO DO
BUSINESS.
Many of the banks of Augusta have recently published their state
ments as required by law. and the combined showing they make is
most gratifying. All of them have not as yet published their state
ments. and so the statement -of ail the banks of the city is as yet in
complete. But the showing is a most gratifying one, and clearly indi
cates that Augusta is ready and wiling and able once more to do all the
business offering.
The showing of six banks whose statements have appeared show
that their combined capital, surplus and undivided profits amounts to
$1,253,122.90, and the individual deposits, demand and time certificates
of these banks foot up the comfortable sum of $5,588,154.32. These to
tals will be materially increased when the other banks of the city have
published their statements.
Not only are the Augusta banks making this fine showing, but more
people are begining to realize that Augusta real estate is a most valu
able asset and investment. Real estate loans and investments in Au
gusta realty are showing decided improvement, and a great deal of
business in this field is confidently looked for in the near future. Al
ready the advertising colurryjs of The Herald are showing activity in this
respect.
The wonderful development of suburban real estate is steadily and
rapidly going on, and the business and residential sections of the city
proper are not far behind.
A steady growth and improvement is looked for in all lines of busi
ness here in Augusta, and more than ever Augusta's banks and her real
estate values are showing the firm and prosperous condition of the
city and its people. ' ,

St. Valentine’s Day, Neb. 14:
“This is the day on which those charming little missives, yclept
valentines, cross and intercross each other at every street and turn

must ha’ been, for there ain’t nobody like you. . . . Except of me,
Mary, my dear, as your valentine.”
The Herald trusts that each and every one of its thousands of read
ers and subscribers has the valentine today of its heart’s wish and that
the sentiment and good wishes will cheer them on during the remainder
of the year.
AUGUSTA’S SPRING MUSIC FESTIVAL
At great expense a rare treat on a grand scale is being provided
for the music lovers of Augusta and the surrounding country. The
science of harmonious sounds has many devotees in Augusta—in fact
in probably no city in the country is the love of music moFe extend
ed than in our city—and we have many among our people who are
themselves artists of high merit in this finest of all arts. For all that,
a grand musical festival of the highest order has never before been
attempted in Augusta.
It, seemed such an ambitious undertaking involving such heavy cost,
that the natural hesitation to making such a bold venture proved a
bar to effort beyond the hope that some time Augusta would have a
grand music festival. This hope is now to be realized. A grand spring
music festival will be had. After long labor all the preliminary work
has been completed.' Thfc dates have been set, April 26 and 27. The
program has been arranged. And the music lovers of Augusta ai’e
on the qui vive of expectancy for the grand event.
And not of Augusta alone, but of this and adjoining states. Such
a musical treat as this will be is rarely offered, and it will appeal to
music lovers everywhere, who will eagerly avail themselves of the op
portunity presented to revel in the rich feast of harmonious sound.
So this music festival will bring together all the music lovers and con
noisseurs of this art divine within a large radius of Augusta.
Mr. Walter Damrosch will be the directing genius. He is the
leading artist in his line in the country, as a musical director without
a peer. It was as an interpreter of the world’s master musicians that
Walter Damrosch won his great successes. His explanatory recitals of
the Wagner music-dramas, which have been given all over the United
States, are unique. Many have tried to imitate him in this field, but
none possesses that intimate acquaintance with Wagner’s music, com
bined with such high pianistic skill and the dramatic power "to recite
the text and. to -explain the beauties of the music and its relation to
■the words.
With Mr. Damrosph will come the most renowned of the singers and
musical artists in the country. Mme. Emma Eames, the leading sopra
no singer of the world today, will be here. Also the famous quartet,
composed of Mme. Rider-Kelsey, soprano; Miss Nevada Van der Veer,
alto; Mr. Reed Miller, tenor, and Mr. Gustave Holmquist, bass, as well
as Mr. Barrington Branch, the celebrated pianist, will be included
among the visiting artists.
To these will be added a chorus of the best of the local talent,
and Augusta is rich in this talent. Senor Andonegui will contribute the
best of his skill, and the grand chorus, already organized and deep in
preparatory practice, will render most efflcieht aid. Altogether this
Spring Music Festival will surpass everything of its kind ever before
witnessed in this section.
Well may it be anticipated with pleasure by the music lovers of
Augusta and of the two states.
INTENSIVE VERSUS EXTENSIVE FARMING.
From many sections of the state come reports that farmers th(s
year will farm more according to the intensive plan—that is trying by
higher fertilization and improved methods of cultivation to increase the
yield per acre—instead of following the old plan of—trying to produce
greater crops by extending the area planted. This is a move along the
right line.
It is often remarked of a farmer that he is land-poor. In almost
any other country but ours such a term would be impossible. Land is
everywhere the safest form of wealth, and the more of it a man has the
richer he should be. But with us almost the reverse is true. We
have famers who are the owners of large plantations and who, because
they have so much land, think they must cultivate it all; and in conse
quence we have farms poorly tilled, and the farmer eking out a preca
rious existence because he is kept poor by having too nyjjjh land oi
which to pay taxes, without deriving from it a fair return for what is
spent upon it.
Under the intensive plan no more lantT is planted than can be
properly fertilized and cultivated On such farms the yield per acre is
sever:,l times as large as the yield under the extensive planting system.
The cost of cultivation is reduced and the net profits resulting from
the crops are greater. It doesn't cost any more to cultivate an acre
of cotton which will yield a bale than it costs to cultivate an acre
which will yield only a quarter of a bale, hence it is a plain case that
the farmer who obtains the best yield per acre is the one who makes
the largest profits.
What our lands will produce, under a proper system of fertilizing
and cultivating, has never yet been discovered. As with the ocean
liners, no sooner is a new speed record made than another steamship
comes forward and breaks it, so no sooner does one farmer make a new
record for the product of an acre than another will come and beat it.
Not so many years ago it was believed that a bale of cotton per acre was
the limit of production. Over two bales per acre have been raised, and
still the limit has not been reached. And so with all other crops
Smaller farms, intensively cultivated, are far more profitable than
larger farms indifferently cultivated and it is a hopeful sign when our
farmers are reported to be abandoning the extensive system and taking
up the intensive system of farming.
THE AUGUSTA HERALD
GEORGIA STATE PENSIONS.
The state has just paid its pension
ers for this year. The full amount
of the annual pension granted the
old soldiers and old soldiers' widows
was paid in one payment, the system
of quarterly payments, adooted last
year, having been found unsatisfac
tory. These pension claims paid
this year aggregated about one mil
lion dollars, in round figures.
There.are those who believe that
this amount is excessive. The Bain
bridge Democrat, voicing this class,
comments:
Fraud is believed to be prac
ticed in some of the counties by
persons obtaining pensions for
alleged Confederate service. The
matter should be thoroughly in
vestigated and every one who is
not entitled to a pension should
be cut off. The people of Geor
gia are willing to tax them
selves in order to give aid to
those old soldiers and widow's
who are in need but they are not
willing to give anything to any
one who is undeserving.
That fraud is practiced to any ex
tent in the obtaining of pensions is
! highly improbable. The rules to pre
vent anything of this kind are so
i carefully drayvn and so efficiently en
forced that fraudulent claim being en
tered would seem almost impossible.
The most thorough investigation that
could be made would probably dis
close that all the pensions were prop
erly paid as designed by law.
But the present large pension roll
will be enormously enlarged. Our
contemporary is in error when it say:
that only those veterans and widows
of veterans who are in need should
be pensioned because the people of
Georgia are unwilling to pay pensions
to those not needing them. This
question was submitted to the voters
of the state under the referendum
vote provided for such questions by
the constitution, and by a very de
clsive majority they voted to pay
pensions to all old soldiers and the
*vidows of old soldiers, whether they
w'ere in need of aid or not.
It was estimated that tins would
nearly double the amount required for
pension payments, but the people
clearly indicated that this was what
they wanted. It is a well-known
axiom that “you can’t oat a oakfc and
have it too.” The state, that is the
people of the state, can’t be extreme
ly generous in paying pensions, anil
keep the money to meet this liberal
ity in their own pockets.
So. having voted to pay these pen
siond, when payday comes there is
nothing to do but to waltz up and
fork" over the money. It comes with
bad grace, after indulging in a large
spasm of generosity, to growl about,
paying and worse still, to intimate
that "fraud is believed to be prac
ticed” in obtaining pensions.
THE PERILS OF THE DEEP.
The recent naval disaster off the
coast of Massachusetts has led to a
discussion of the relative danger be
tween sea and land travel. The
“Perils of the deep,” as they arc
called, have always beefi regarded
with a kind of superstitious dread by
most people, which is fed by the
stories of such disasters as this.
These stories are always given the
widest publicity, because there is so
much that is spectacular about them,
and also —and this is a fact that
some people seem to forget—be
cause they are of much rarer oc
currence. The truth is that travol
on water is very much safer than
travel on land.
There are no statistics of casual
ties of the sea. in the collision be
tween the Republic and the Florida
six people were killed. It some
times, hut very rarely happens, that
In some terrible marine disaster a
greater number perish. That a pass
enger is killed or injured on the sea
except in the case of some great, dis
aster is an occurrence almost un
known. Hence it will be seen that
the danger to passengers traveling
the sea is quite small. To seamen
the danger is of course greater. They
are exposed to the dangers of the
business, and incidental thereto it
often happens that, there are fatal ac
cidents; yet even among the steam
boat employees the danger is not as
great as to railroad employees.
During the months of July, August
and September last, the official figures
show that nearly 800 persons were
killed and 17,000 persons were in
jured on the railroads of the United
States. These appalling figures show
that even considering the differences
in the number of those who travel
by land and water, and the number
engaged in rail or steamship trans
portation service, the balance of casu
alties Is almost incomparably in favor
of the steamships.
The “perils of the deep" shrink im
mensely by comparison with the
perils of land travel, and yet to these
latter hut little thought is given.
This shows with what tenacity we
cling to old notions and beliefs which
have been handed down to us by tra
dition.
Not only is steamship travel safer
than travel by rail, but It Is also
more pleasant. Of course, there Is
the seasickness which one must en
dure who gets out on the ocean for
the first time. But. this Isn’t so
bad, after all. While It makes the
patient as sick as it is possible for
a human being to become, it isn’t,
dangerous, it, doesn't last long, and
the joy of livfng that comes after
recovery from it Is worth the pass
ing ill experience. Aside from this
sea sickness the advantages are all
on the side of steamship travel. In
stead of the close confinement, cramp
ed quarters and the heat and dust of
an often crowded car, there Is the
privacy of the the free
dom of the deck, the fresh and Invig
orating sea air, and the leisure and
rest, of the comfortable steamer
chairs.
Instead of the perils or terrors of
the deep it should be put. the com
parative greater safety and comfort
of steamship travel. Borne people
fully understand this, and travel by
water whenever that mode of travel
is available. And If all 'he people
understood It as well there would hr.
a large increase in the travel of sea.
THE COST OF A FIRST CLASS NAVY.
Our country has become one of the great naval powers. There are
but five of these in the wbrld, England, France, Germany and Japan be
ing the other four. Among these England in the strongest, with our
country, France and Germany closely tied for second place, and Japan
bringing up the rear.
There was a time when England was the only naval
power. The destruction of the Spanish armada and later the defeat
of the Dutch after many battles, left England the sole mistress of the
sea. France was the only country which during two centuries even
thought of disputing English supremacy, but the Nile and Trafalgar put
an effective quietus to such aspirations Our navy administered some
severe knocks to the English navy, but wo did not then aspire to be a
sea power, and (ltd not try to build a navy. It. was not until some
twenty years ago that we turned Over a new leaf and determined to sup
ply ourselves with a real navy of modern fighting ships.
Q At that time England was not only supreme on the sea, but her
naval strength was nearly equal to the combined naval strength of all
other countries. It was then England's policy to have a navy equal at
least, to the navy of the two next strongest navies. Tills lead England
in trying desperately to maintain
But she can’t. The cost of a modern battleship is so great, and
the time required to build it so long that England cannot build new
ships faster than her three nehrest rivals. And as modern warships
are short lived things It follows that England’s lead must be lost, and
within a few years she will have no superiority ot' naval armament
over us.
We are building a great navy. By some experts it is rated now as
only second to England's, and wo are proud of our fine lighting ships.
But they constitute an expensive uxury.
The naval bill recently reported by the senate committee carries an
appropriation of $1 .'16.826,199. This is quite a big pile of money to
spend on a navy for one year. It is more than the entire cost of the
government before the Civil war, and twice as large per capita as was
required under Jackson’s admlnisttallon to run the entire government.
Thirty years ago the minimi cost of maintaining our navy was about
$15,000,000. Under Cleveland s administration, when we began our new
naval program, this cost was deal led. During the Spanish war it was
doubled again. Yet when wo fought that war, maintained a navy on a
war footing and swept Spain from the seas In two great naval victories,
our navy cost us only about $(!0,0t'0,000 a year. Now, in time of peace!
this cost has been more than doubled, and this annual cost must con
tinue to increase at a rapid rate.
Surely a navy is a most expensive luxury, with single warships
costing $10,000,000 to build. But we cannot be a world power, In the
sense of being always prepared to fight any other power, without a
great navy.
JAPANESE FINANCES AND POSSIBLE WAR
The New York World, discussing the anti-Japanese agitation in the
Pacific coast states and the war talk which naturally has grown out of
it, ridicules In the severest terms the idea that Japan could possibly
think of war. “Idiotic war talk" Is what the Worl* calls It, and It pro
ceeds to show that It is idiotic, by attempting to prove that Japan
could not finance a war with the United States. “Japan stands bur
dened today with a national Indebtedness of $1,250,000,000,” says The
World. “In other words, with a population five-ninths that, of the Uni
ted States its debt is one-third larger. Its credit Is virtually ex
hausted.”
It must be admitted that there is much that savors of Idiocy In this
talk of war with Japan. For Instance, the talk of a Japanese Invasion
of our Pacific states. Unless England should he the active ally of Ja
pan in such a war, and it would be a war of our country with England
and Japan combined, a Japanese Invasion would be Impossible, since
Japan could not transport, an army across the Pacific, she could not
even send warships to harass our coasts, for the simple reason that she
would have no way to supply coal to her ships on lilts side, and a war
ship without coal Is only a helpless derelict. And England would not.
he Japan’s ally in such a war for the simple reason that, whatever Its
outcome might he in other respects, It would mean an end of English
sovereignty in North America and the annexation of these British pos
sessions by the .United States.
Talk of a Japanese invasion of our country Is idiotic.
So also is the talk of Japan’s inability to light, us because she
has a national debt of a billion dollars. That is only about one-fourth
of England’s public debt, and yet it will not be claimed that because
of Ibis public debt England would he unable to fight. The great ex
tension of Japanese trade since the Russo-. Tap war makes Japan’s pres
ent debt a lighter burden (o her than was the smaller debt she here
before that war. Financially Japan is In better condition to wage a
war now than she was when -she fell on the Russian fleet, In Port Ar
thur, while the Russians were deluding themselves wllh thb belief that.
Japan was too poor to fight the rich Russian empire.
It isn’t money which lights, hut. the spirit of the people. At the
time of (he great. French revolution no country was In a worse fix finan
cially than France. The profligacy of the royal regime had drained
the country. The French republic could borrow no money. It could
count on nothing except what It could do itself, and the country wns im
poverished. The other countries of Europe thought that France was 100
poor, too hard pressed financially to sustain a war, and so they jumped
on France. The Germans Invaded Franco from the west and England
did the same from the south. 'Frnnhe whipped them both, and this na
tion, financially unable to make war In the estimation of those who be
lieve (hat It. Is money which fights—kept on fighting until It, hnd
whipped combined Europe. It Is Idlolie to say that Japan could make
war because her national debt amoutils to over $2 per capita.
Japan Is a warlike nation. She has an army and a navy organized
to fight, at a moment’s notice. Whatever delusion we may hug as to
Japanese friendship for its and such things, let us not delude ourselvos
with the belief that japan cannot fight us because she Is too poor to
fight.
THE LOCATION OF THE WIRZ MONUMENT.
The Daughters of the Confederacy will hold a special meeting to
reconsider the question of the location of the Wlrz monument. Sev
eral months ago It was decided to give this monument to Richmond,
after a long and weary discussion.
Why Richmond was chosen at, first is not clear. Richmond waa the
capital of the Confederacy, and ns such she has a number of monu
ments, appropriate on this account. But Captain Wlrz was In no wise,
specially connected with the capital. He was a native of Switzerland.
He enlisted In the Confederate army In Louisiana. And his chief ser
vice, for which he Is principally known and which cost him his life,
was rendered In Georgia. Then why should a monument In his honor
be erected In Virginia?
It was a mistake when Richmond was chosen In the first Instance.
Perhaps It was done to carry out the Bible Injunction that to him who
hath shall be given. The greater part of the Confederate monuments
erected with funds contributed by the South generally are set up In
Richmond, and perhaps it. was thought, that Richmond should have all?
Or perhaps it was because the Daughters could not agree on a Georgia
site that they chose Richmond before they could agree on a Georgia
location? At. any rate Richmond was chosen.
But, so little did Richmond appreciate this honor that it decided to
stick the monument into an obscure, out-of-the-way corner. Richmond
has so many monuments of distinguished men that, perhaps It did not
like to place the monument erected In honor of this humble officer, who
was hanged on a gallows, in close proximity to them. Richmond did
not decline to receive the monument, but did not seem to appreciate
It very much, and announced that. It would he erected In tho cemetery,
an appropriate place, where few Would he likely to see It.
For this cause, or some other, the question is now to he reconsid
ered, and some olher location than Richmond selected. Perhaps now
Andersonvllle will be chosen, for without, a doubt Andersonvllle Is the
proper place,
It Is not the most public place, but. It Is a place largely visited
for Its historic associations, and such visitors, to whom this monument
will be of greatest. Interest, will see It, which is better than If It were
located where It could he seen by large but uncaring multitudes. Among
or with the many other monuments that have been erected at Ander
sonvllle, In honor of the prison martyrs who suffered and died there,
the monument of this soldier, the commandant of the prison, should
be placed. He was executed after the war, n, paroled prisoner sacri
ficed to the passions of war, hut. who has now been proven not only In
nocent. of the charges laid against, him, hut who, as has now developed,
treated the prisoners of war as humanely as was possible with tho re
sources his government, could place at his disposal. To righteous acts
as a prison commandant he added the final grandly noble act of refus
ing to Rave his own life at the cost of another's, and he chose a felon's
death upon the gibbet rather than falsely to accuse his Chief, Presi
dent Jefferson Davis, as he was bid to do ns a ransom for his own life.
There may he yet. some people in the North who harbor the belief
shared by all during those fearful days, that Captain Wlrz was the
monster he was painted. But the time will come when all will see that
he was the unfortunate victim of circumstances, yet a grandly true man
In his Ignominious death. And then It will be generally recognized
that Andersonvllle is the proper place for the shart erected In his honor,
as this is understod now by those who know the true story of the man.
Erect the Wlrz monument at. Andersonvllle. the place with which
his name Is linked Inseparably.
