fathers as well as by the blood of the IA
theirs of our brethren.
ut is a source of qualification that the
President has ordered our regiments to
the front, had appointed our Lees, our
Wheelers and our Oates as generals"
Col Gambler then took up the race ques-
ton, which he said was a delicate ques-
ton confroting US He spoke of the An
gloSaxon as the strongest race in the
world, and the negro race as the weakest.
These live on the terms of equality
1T devolves on US Georgians to lead
this weaker race as the child is led by the
hand and teach it that the ballot was
given not as merchandise to be bartered
away for drink of whisky, but for the
protection and perpetuation of free gov
eminent"
He said he had followed the flag OF the
Democratic party from his boyhood,
through defeat and through victory, not
! through trades and alliances, and had come
to this nomination absolutely unpledged,
! except to do what he thought was for the
best interst of the state.

/ enemies to punish" said he, 'let us have
an old time Democratic victory with an

Their was great applause, and at this
point n old grizzled Confederate veteran

of flowers. and Col. Gambler put his arm
around the old man in affectionate I'M
brace.

Atlanta. Ca. June 29.-The Democratic
state convention was called to order this
morning at II o'clock and after three and
a half hours of work, adjourned sine die,
having nominated fun ticket for Gov
ernor and state house officers, elected a.
new executive committee and adopted the
party platform upon which is to be made
the fight against Populists and Repub-
licans.
While the session of the convention was
brief, it was not because there was no
enthusiasm and no oratory to display for.
as a matter of fact, more deeply enthu-
siastic crowd has never assembled togeth-
er for the perfunctory business of nomi
mating an uncontested ticket.
1t was a Gambler crowd from start to
finish, but there was nothing obtrusive
about their enthusiasm and the best of
good feeling prevailed among all.
The friends of Judge Atkinson and SEN
ator Berner came prepared to accept the
situation philosophically, and they joined
in the general enthusiasm as if there had
been no contest at all for the nomination.
In some respects the convention was re-
markable. 1t brought out as delegates

A Review of the Recent Operations
Around Santiago.

Washington, June 29-The navy depart
ment to-day posted the following bulletin
giving a report from Admiral Sampson,
under date of June % off Santiago:
On the morning of the 10th the bate
ries at the entrance Of Santiago were sub
jected to a severe bombardment by the
fleet. The firing was deliberate and gem
orally was excellent. The batteries were
quickly silenced.
"On the 18th the Texas, Marblehead
and Suwanee destroyed the fort at Guam
tanamo.
"on the 10th the Yankee engaged a
Spanish gunboat off Cienfuegos.
ION the 18th Lieut.. Harlow with two
steam launches, one under Cadet Powell
and one under Cadet Hart made an ex-
animation of Cabanas bay. The launches
were subjected 10 a heavy and continued
fire at short range and were struck sew
enteen times, although no one was hurt.
Lieut.. Harlow In his report particularly
praises the conduct of Cadets Hart and
Powell and Coxswains O'Donnell and
Blom.
ION the 10Th, Gen. Garcia and his staff
visited the flagship, having arrived that
morning at Gen. Rabi's camp al Acerra-
deros. My impressions Of Gen. Garcia
are Of the most pleasant character He
and engaging manners, and of most SOL
dierly appearance.
THE fleet has with my direction fur
nished arms clothing and food 70 the Gu
ban forces, both east and west Of San
tiago. Much has been done in this direc-
ton at Guantanamo by Commander Nc
Gala, who has been most energetic in
rendering them all the assistance possible.
Great activity and courage has been
shown by the Cubans at Guantanamo and
Commander McCalla Is most eulogistic IN
reference 10 their conduct There are
about 10000 Cuban forces IN this imme-
date vicinity.
ION the goth the army transports arriv-
ed and Gen Shafter and l paid a visit to
Gems: Garcia and Rabi. The process of
debarkation was rendered difficult by
heavy seas, the heaviest which we have
had during the three weeks the fleet has
been stationed here, BY three in the aft
ernoon, however 1900 men were ashore
and the work was proceeding with great
rapidly.
1.-THE pier was not injured and one of
the steamers went alongside of IT,
1.-THE water supply was not injured.
1.-THE Vesuvius has done almost nightly
firing since she has been here, the expIo-
sion of the shells producing very great ef-
feet"

A Surprising Showing.

The enumeration of 1893 upon which
the present congressional and legisla-
tive apportionment is based shows the
remarkable fact that Marshall, Starke,
Wells. Adams, Brown and Washington
counties have not single colored
voter; White, Pulaski, and Crawford
have but one each; Lagrange, Porter
and Franklin two each, and Martin,
Scott and White counties three each;
Noble and Warren four each; Steuben,
DeKalb and Huntington five each;
Fulton and Jasper six each; Blackford,
seven; Dubois, nine and Fountain and
Carroll each ten. This is total of &c
counties out of 90 in Indiana with but
SO colored voters out of a total of
1892 colored males over Fl years old
The six counties without colored
voter are Democratic as are also most
of the others where there is so small a
colored vote.
Marion county is credited with 1904
colored voters by the same enumeration
with Vanderburg county second with
LIPS and Clark third with $50.
