A WORD TO THE ARMY BOYS.
An Old Soldiers Pride in GeOrgIa's
Men.

Men,
Editor Morning News. You will pardon
me for asking the use of your paper in
reference to various items as to our South
ern soldiers. The complaint seems to be
in not moving them to Cuba fast enough.
Certainly, our boys from Georgia are
ready and anxious to go, and have been
ever since they enlisted, but presume the
officers in charge of the commands know
best what to do. The movement of troops
from place to place and the countermand-
ing of orders have been done by authority,
and l presume the movements and orders
have all been for the more perfect mass
ing of the various commands.
Our Georgia boys have not been in prop
er military shape for movement, whilst
they may have been ever so ready, willing
and anxious to go to Cuba They volun-
tered as soldiers, needing in a great
measure many articles necessary to sol
diers, and lack of these is due In a great
measure to the legislatures, which have
allowed only small appropriations TO the
volunteers. Our Governor is, and has al
ways been, willing to help the soldier
boys. Since Satterlee and Oscar Brown
have been with the soldiers Of Georgia and
became part of the boys. Georgia soldiers
have taken a. foremost rank and are will
ing to do their duty at armory, camp, Sea
Grt, or Cuba. Our Brown can be fol-
lowed by the gallant "Garrard." Lawton
is well able to follow In the footsteps OF
his illuslrious father, and with his gallant
command, the First Georgia, he will be at
the side of Gen. Brooke when he has
Brooks" to go through with Every man
in Col. A. r. Lawton's regiment is in for
the war.
Boys don't worry about short rauons,
shelter tents. etc. Your father fought for
days with raw sweet potatoes and quar-
ter of a psund of fat meat warmed upon
the point Of a bayonet They had no shell
ter tents, but the sky above for tent, and
snow, mud and clay to lie upon. Your
mothers, wives, sisters and sweethearts
are helping you by every means in their
power and watching and offering prayers
for your success and your safe return
home. An eX-NoIunteer.

PORTO RIco TO he HELD.

Government Determined IL Shall Be
come American Territory.
Washington. July 26.-It did not require
the recently issued seml-official statement
TO make clear the position of this country
with regard to Porto Rico. From the very
first 1t has been clearly understood that
1t was the purpose OF the President and
his advisers to take Porto Rico and hold IL
as American territory Primarily the idea
was to take this valuable little island as
part Of the war indemnity thus making It
Offset some of the expenses to which the
war has put US, but, secondarily, the is
land is to be held because Of the material
and strategic value.
All of this is outside of the determina-
tion to drive Spain from this last remain
Ing possession in the Eastern hemisphere.
Perhaps that should have been cited as the
| first reason for including Porto Rico in the
| war movements; but just now that is over
| shadowed by the conviction that the is
land is worth having in itself. and the de-
sire to possess land is, you know, one OF
| the su ong distinguishing characteristics
| of the Anglo-SaXon race.
| The island is to be held as a part of the
| possessions of the United States, For a
| time, that is until the end of the war and
| until SOME other method of government Is
| secured, It will be under military govern
| ment. Afterwards there win he adopted
| for 1t some kind Of a territorial govern
ment, based probably on some sucn lines
as are decided upon for Hawaii
| 1t is not likely that there win be any
! complications with the people OF Porto
| Rico. For some time there has been in
| existence in New York a so-called junta
! which was supposed to be working for in
| dependence but there Is no evidence that
| 1t has represented any large portion Of the
| people. Indeed If the evidence OF those
| who are supposed to be in the best posi-
| ton to know counts for anything the in
| telligent people of the island have an the
| time looked to annexation to the United
! States as the best fate that could befall
| them. There has been no fight for indie
| pendcnce, because the people realized their
| Inability 10 make such a fight succe ssful
| In view of the smalness of their island
! and the smaliness OF their force; but they
| take with avdity to the suggestion of be-
| coming a part of the territory of the
| United States with the Stars and Stripes
| floating above them,
! 1t is significant that in selecting Porto
! Rlcans to act as guides and interpreters to
accompany the expedition, Gen. Miles took
men who have no connection at all with
| the junta. This has riled the men who
| have been posing as the official reptcsen-
| tatives of the Porto Ricans, but they ind
| themselves powerless. The men taken are
| thoroughly familiar with the island and
with the people and they are expected to
| be of great use TO the expedition.

western Magazine at the Back of the

Brunswick, Ga, July 26-It is very prob
able that Sapelo Island, or the greater
part of it, will shortly be disposed of to
a colonization company, This company is
headed by a weekly publication Of the
home magazine order. Its place of pub
LEGATION is in the far West and the proprIe-
tors have been figuring on Sapelo for sew
eral months. During that time represent
tatives of the paper have been here two
or three times. This week two of the
largest stockholders were here and they,
like those who came before them, are well
pleased with the island. 1t is impossible
to say just what the final outcome will be,
but the chances are that Sapelo will be the
site selected for one of the most unique
and prosperous colonies in the South.
The plan is to have a home exclusively
for the people who live on the island and
own part of the stock. There will be a
business head which will manage affairs
and the entire workings of the colonists
viii be on the cooperative order. Coupling
this colony with the one started by the
Shakers near Hobolten and the Shakers
own home site in Glynn, it begins 10 look
like the winegrass section would soon be
in a fair way for great development.

evening as the excursion train from At

fray took place at the depot which re-
suited in the killing Of Abe Butler young
negro, by James Jackson, Jr.. young man
OF this place. It seems that this negro,
who was not unruly when sober, though
a very thievish fellow. was drunk and
very quarrelsome. He was abusing and
teasing a little white boy, when young
Jackson came up and ordered him 10
leave. Afterward, meeting him again at
the depot, the trouble was renewed, and
jackson was knocked down by the negro,
receiving a severe cut on the head. Rising
Immediately. Jackson drew his pistol and
fired three shots at his assailant. Two Of
them took effect and the negro staggered

PLEDGEH's GOOD DEED.
He Took Care of a Confederate Vet
eran During the Reunion.
From the Atlanta Journal.

From the Atlanta Journal.
w. A. Plcdger, the well-known colore1
layewr of this city, gave an illustration
last week of the affection of former slaves
for the men who once owned them.
Pledger belonged TO a Clayton county
family whose name he bears.
Joseph Pledger, one of the
sons of that family, was Con-
federate soldier and was so badly wound
cd that he had been able to do very little
since the war. Fearing that he might not
be able to come to the reunion, w. a.
Piedger sent him the money 20 come on,
purchased for him a Confederate uni
form, obtained a nice boarding place and
paid for his entertainment throughout the
reunion. Pledger met the veteran at the
train and saw him safely on board when
he was ready to return. His kindness
made one Of the many pretty incidents of
the reunion.
