CRISP FOR THE SENATE.

That able Georgian and fearless
democratic leader, Charles F. Crisp,
announces in an address to the
democrats of the third district that
he will not be a candidate for reelection
to the house, but that he is in the race to
succeed General Gordon in the United
States senate. 1t is strong and manly
letter, and will be greeted with great sat
isfaction by the distinguished states
mans thousands eff friends in Georgia
Judge Crisp is now serving his seventh
term in congress, and, as the recognized
leader of the democrats in that body for
the past several years, has won the adj
miration of the entire country and made
a record of which any man might justly
be proud. That he is strong with the
people of this state there is no doubt,
and the other distinguished gent lemen
who aspire to the senatorship would have
been better pleased had he been content
to remain in the lower house.
Judge Crisp's letter is as folllows:
House of Representatives, United
States of America, Washington, D. c.
To the Democrats of the Third Congress
sional District: For many years, without
announcement of candidacy ON my part.
you have honored me by selecting ne as
your representative in congress- Silence
would nowimply tha3 l wished or hop
ed for continuance of that relation,
Inasmuch as / have determined not
again to be candidate for a seat in the
house OF representatives, | feel bound
promptly to acquaint you of the fact in
order that | may not be considered |
among those from whom representative !
to the f1fty-ffth congress may be chosen.
/ cherish desire to represent Georgia
in the senate of the United States. In |
March, 1894, when Governor Northen,
without suggestion r solicitation, APP
pointed me to this great office it seemed
that my hope had been realized. I was
anxious to accept the place thus gener-
ously rendered. AT the time of the ap-
pointment congress was in session and l |
had been honored by election to the office |
of speaker. A very large majority of |
democratic members Of the house unit |
ed in an appeal that Gin the interest |
of the country and party l should de-
cline the office of senator. From my
standpoint no other course was open
to me. Now no such condit exist |
and l write this that you may recall
my situation then, and that may be
free to become candidate for the po-
for the position of United States sena- !
tor for the term beginning Ma rch 4th,
1897, 1t only remains for me
to add that your unvarying con-
sideration and kindness have
placed me under obligations which can
never hope to repay, and for which l
beg you to believe l am now and ever
shall be most profoundly grateful.
Truly and sincarely yours,
CHARLES f. CRISP.

CUBAN BELLIGEREhT RIGHTS.

The house and senate have at last
awakened to their duty in the matter of
extending belligerent rights to the Gu
bans, and have adopted by nearly
unanimous vote the following resolu-
ton:
Resolved that, in the opinion of con-
gress, condition of public war exists be-
tween the government of Spain and the
government proclaimed, and for some
time maintained by force of arms by the
people of Cuba, and that The United
States of America should maintain strict
neutrality between contending powers,
according to each all the rights of bellig
erentS in the ports and territory of the
United States. Be it further
Resolved, That the president is hereby
requested to interposc his friendly of
fees with the Spanish government for
the recognition of the independence of
Cuba.
This course of congress, which meets
with the approval of the people
of the entire United States, has
been fastened by the appalling butchery
of Cubans on the field and in their homes
through the orders of Captain General
Weyler, who has proven himself to be
blood-thirsty villain. May struggling
Cuba soon be be free.

on that question, or rather strad-

To the fact that the last democratic
national convention did not make de-
claration that could not be twisted 10
mean a concession to the single gold
standard is due much of the trouble that
the party is having with the goldbugs.

THE ''sound money" papers, in carry
ing out their policy of claiming every
thing and misrepresentlng everybody,
have quoted Captain w. w. Dews, the
member of the state executive commits
tee from the second district, as against
the one convention idea. The Calhoun
Courier, edited by son.in-law of the
captain, says he will be a one convention
man when the committee meets next
Saturday. That means that Captain
Dews will represent the people of the
district, as this paper, regardless of
contrary reports, always thought he
would do.

THE Kentucky senatorial middle
doesn't clear up. Dr.. Hunter, the re-
publican nominee, has withdrawn, and
the legislators of that party are search
ing for another man to.pit against Black
burn, who is being knitted by the demo
cratic goldbug members. Strange as
is, some so called democratic newspapers
in Georgia are indignant because the
sixty-two Blackburn men in the legisla-
ture will not allow half dozen rene
gades to say who shall be the senator.

JUDGE BOWER hasn't handed in that
resignation yet. If we had any influence
with the good man we would advise him
not to do so. He can't go to congress
this time, and the people would regret to
lose his able and valuable services alto
gether. We like him and we feel interest
him, and at the risk of being called im-
pertinent we venture to suggest that the
judge hold to what he already has and
what the people are willing for him to
have.

CAPTAIN HAMMOND hasn't yet said
that will be a candidate for congress.
There ale two mountains between him
and seat in the legislative halls at
Washington that he doubtless realizes
would be hard for him to climb. One of
these is speech he made last summer
when the people of Thomasville was do
ing honor to Mckinley, and the other is
an interview about the same time in
which he unbosomed himself to a north
ern republican paper. Both contained
sentiments that are not calculatedto aid a
candidate in democratic district. 1t is
we'll that the captain should ponder over
these things before going out fer
votes,

IT is said by some who profess to know

THE Valdosta Times is disposed to
advise the democrats of the second dis

The proposed parade Of the confeder-
ate and federal soldiers in New York
this summer will not be. The high
cockalorum of the northern soldiers OBJ
jects to it. The whole thing has fallen
through, and there is no reason for tears
about it. The Albany Herald makes a
remark that expresses the sentiments
of this paper. Here it is:
"The southerners and such of the old
confederate veterans as are continually
bu'rying the Ratchet with the yankees
and federal veterans have been given
snub by Commander-in Chief Walker, of
the Grand Army of the Republic, which
serves them right, And tits to be hoped
that it will have the effect of stopping
those southerners, and especially the
confederate veterans, from further
trucking to the people and surviving
veterans of the north.''

States, claiming that from ninety-two
acres of Bermuda grass he has cut 400
tons of hay, weighed after cured, the
price. obtained ranging from $40 to $25
per ton, realizing $4,000. Deduqting the
expense of cutting, billing, etc., the
clear profit was S. 800, or SIS to the acre.
The proper thing to do this year is to
raise hog, hominy and hay and vote for
