GEO. G.. EAYES g. {

A CURIOUS plan for eleyating Geor-
gla morals has been formulated by a
well known citizen of Atlanta. He
proposes that each county shall decide
by vote on January of each year who
the worst man in the county is, and
that the man receiving the highest
number of votes shall on the ensuing
February | be hanged. 1t is claimed
for the plan that it would induce bad
men to emigrate, ard that the com
pllmentary vote" received by those
who had just begun to be bad, but
were not generally recognized as such,
would tend TO create desire within
them to be enrolled among the we'll
behaved.

confidence, shoes that are perfect in

All That Was Done Was the Best That
Could be Done.
Camp Wikoff, Sept. AFTER a nights
rest, General Shafter consented to be in
terviewed on the army conditions at San
tiago. He spoke of the causes of sick
ness at Santiago and said that yellow
tever was not to blame tor as many deaths
as supposed. In fact he said many of
the men had the fever that never knew
it. Most of the deaths resulted from
calen,ura or the heat attack which un-
acclimated men have in Cuba Death ,e
suits in most cases. "For myself" said
the general, Il would ID sight rather
have the fever"
For the transport of the troops
the best transports were sent that could
be had. The men had no time to make
changes and embarked in the ships as
they were. In all cases the ships took
away Is per cent less men on board than
they took to Santiago.
The general said that he could not un
delstand the case of the Allegheny and
the Ninth Massachusetts volunteers.
This regiment was the most unfortunate
of any at Santiago 1t lost its colonel
and two majors in battle and had more
sickness than any other regiment Re-
gardlng the Senator and Chance there
were goods grounds for the charge of
overcrowding, as the vessels stopped at
several places and picked up men.
In regard to the treatment of the sick
and wounded he said he gave them all
the government provided. Cuba is
desert waste and nothing could be pro-
vlded there.
At Ell Caney, according to Shafter. the
men made the best fight of the campaign.
The men fought when they were almost
dead from exertlon and fatigue.
There was plenty Of food on the beach
but only one almost impossible road
from the supplies to the front. "We had
to make the best of things" he said,
while the men were vigorous as they
were growing weaker daily
The surrender of the city of Santiago
was not surprise, but the surrender of
all the eastern province, the general SAID,
nearly knocked him over.
The general positively refused to
talk of the war scandal.
