News of the Maine.

The Age-Herald presented the best story of the Maine disaster to it's readers yes trday morning of any paper in the entire south. It reached Atlanta, Montgomery and other cities with a descriptive story much more complete than any of the local papers of those cities.
 The Age-Herald has been complimented by thousands on its enterprise, and it feels a pride in saying to the people that when they want the news The Age-Herald is the paper that prints it.
 The New York Journal is the recognized newspaper of the east, and it's Cuban ser vice is unsurpassed. The Age-Herald was enabled to print it's exclusive cable by its own correspondent, the best story of the disaster obtainable.
 The Journals enterprise Is unquestioned It goes to any expense to get the news It and the San Francisco Examiner, with The Age-Herald, were the only papers in the United States printing the exclusive cable containing the complete story of the horrifying Maine disaster.

JEFFERSONs'S BIRTHDAY
Will Be Celebrated by the National Demo-
 cratic Club

Washington, Feb. 17.-Thomas Jefferson's birthday anniversary will be celebrated on April 1s by the National Association of Democratic clubs w5th a subscription dinner in this city, which, in nearly every respect will be repetition of the famous dinner here in 1897. As was the case last year, MT. Bryan will be the principal speaker this year. He has already accepted the invitiition of Hon. Chauncey F. Black.
 The National Association of Democratic clubs is now being thoroughly organized and will, no doubt, play an important part in the coming congressional campaign, and this coming Jeffersonian celebration will likely be reflection of the sentiments dominating an the officers of this great democratic organization
 The dinner this year will be more na- tional in the matter of attendance than last year. It is fully anticipated by Secre- tary Lawrence Gardner, who has all the arrangements for the celebration in charge, that every state In the union will be we'll rerrsscHted at the dinner.

Egyptian Cotton.

Frederick c. Penfield, late consul general to Egypt, discusses in the Forum for Feb ruary, the growing of cotton in the Nile valley. Under British auspices the pro- duct has risen to 1,1OO,Ooo bales, and can, as the irrigation district is extended, be car- ried still further. The Upper Nile is not considered, however, so good for cotton as for sugar. But careful irrigation, based on large expenditures may lead to crop of perhaps two million bales.
 Such a crop would cut into the European demand for American cotton-a demand that now takes 60 per cent. of the crop. It is beyond doubt the intention of Great Britain to raise it's own staple, and this 1t will be able to do if the Egyptian crop is again doubled, and the Indian crop well maintained. Every effort will be made to accomplish this result. Egypt in fact needs little additional incentive as her crop is very remunerative. On account of it's long fibre, Egyptian cotton commands 2 cents more pound than American cotton
 
 and the seed s10 100000 more. Such returns, as MT. Penfeld says, are far ahead of the returns for American cotton.
 If this country is to retain It's pre-em- thence in cotton growing, it must, in MT. Penfield's opinion, plant Egyptian cotton. At this point MT. Penfield and the growers in this country are at variance. MT. Pen field says American farmers can grow cotton that has as long fibre as the Egyp- tian cotton, and the farmers say it cannot be grown here. Opinions differ, and act ual tests seem to be wanting. The cotton belt in this country is very long and very broad, and it is reasonable to think, in the absence of actual effort. that some parts of the great belt will produce long, fbered cotton. The subject is one worth trial Let the government seed bureau place. some Egyptian seed in every con- gressional district in the south and it will soon be able to ascertain the capabilities of this country in that direction. The subject is one of very deep importance to this country. The man in Maine or Iowa is nearly as much interested in maintaining the country's exports as the man in Mis- sissippi or Texas. Egypt will not be able to flood Europe with cotton next year or the year after. but her steady persistent inroads need watching and they should be met up to the fullest possibilities of this country.

Indiana Politics.

The election in Indiana does not occur until November, but Senator Turpie's seat as well as governor and members of congress give it interest and prominence already. Like Oregon, Indiana is and al- ways has been a contested state. It swings from one side to the other by mar row majorities, but is ordinarily considered a democratic state.
 This year it is conceded by both sides in the state that the financial issue will be well to the front, although the Dingley tariff will receive a share of public atten- however with relation to the currency question. On the 22d of this month the state committee of the gold democratic party will meet to decide whether they will put ticket in the field, or will go over body and brooches to the republican party.
 The populists have not determined what they will do, but the indications are that the fusion of 1896 will be repeated this year. at least so far as members of con gross are concerned, and probably as to the state ticket also. All see that it Is not good year for third party movements. All see that when one side seeks consolidation, the other should also if 1t desires to escape defeat.
 The republicans have, however, troubles of their own. There are silver republicans. plenty of them, in Indiana, and they are by no means quiescent If they are plat formed out of the party, they will make no little noise over their election. These men are supporters of the Dingley bill, but they are not prepared to accept without kicks the retirement of the greenbacks or further bond issues, or any of MT. Gages schemes for the promotion of the national banks.
 All in all there is very much of hope in the Indiana canvass. Senator Turpie seeks reelection, and his high standing in the senate will materially aid him in the pend- ing canvass There is scarcely a senator who is more highly regarded by intelligent men. The democrats will certainly gain seats in the house.

The Maine Disaster.

Much depends upon the investigation that will now take place as to the cause of the destruction of the Maine in quiet harbor, under forts and near ships friendly
 professedly. If an accidental explosion occurred on board, there is naught to do but bury the dead, nurse the wounded and comfort the sorrowing. If, however, the ship went to the bottom from the hands of a Spanish subject, then Spain's repara- ton cannot come too soon or too thorough ly. Not only the fine ship Itself must be paid for, but pensions of the amplest sort must be provided for the families of the dead seamen, and also compensation for the wounded, and awards for all to cover personal losses. There must be no quib- bling over these payments, if the inves- tigation disclose any hostile act on the part of any Spanish subject in connec- ton with this disaster in a supposedly friendly harbor.
 While there is no reason for any sort of injustice towards Spain, yet the country is In no humor to submit to mistakes or inaction or passiveness on the part of the administration in pressing this matter to a conclusion. The administration should at once shake off the whole gang of sugar. trust specuIators and Spanish Cuban bondholders, by whom 1t has been hedged in and controlled so far as Spanish ques- tions are concerned, and it should give the country at once clean, positive and firm policy as to all questions connected with the disaster to the Maine. The country will accept nothing less. Anything less means a strained feeling that would inevitably lead on to serious trouble.
 1t would seem as If the DeLome incl dent and the Maine disaster were Provi- dentially intended to open the way to the freedom of Cuba, and the relief from suffer- ing and starvation of the thousands and tens of thousands cooped up in ill-supplied Cuban cities The patience of the people in this country is well-ndgh exhausted, and the administration will make a grave mistake if 1t longer heed the selfish syndi- cates that have heretofore dictated the Spanish policy of the government.

Ccol Judgment Needed

From the Tuscaloosa, (Aia) Times.
 All is speculation now, and it is to be hoped that our American people will keep their heads on their shoulders and let wise counsel and good judgment pre- vail in handling a matter of so much inn port to our welfare. We feel a genuine pity for that set of fellows who are throw ing up their hats and talking about how easy it would be for Uncle Sam to wipe up the earth with Spain, etc. war with Snain may involve more than one other nation on either side of the Atlantic We cannot be too careful in this matter, and the nation now needs strong-minded, strong-handed man like Grover Cleveland to manage this affair We hope peace will prevail and prevent great loss of life and business, The whole country is in an ex- plosive state, and it behooves all sensi- ble men to keep their cool judgment to the front in a time like this.

It May Mean War

From the New Orleans Times-Democrat.
 Should it prove that the Maine, lying in the harbor of peaceful nation, was destroyed by treachery, war is inevita- ble Mr. Mckinley may not have sufh- cient backbone even to resent an offense so gross as this, but war in this country is declared by the congress and no expia- nation of the Spanish government no or fer to make reparation could prevent declaration of war. even though 1t should develop that the Spanish authorities had nothing to do with the treacherous design. if treacherous design it were. In this case the loss of the Maine to the United States navy would inevitably mean the loss of Cuba to Spain.
