be better to stay the het rush of human
sympathy which is rolling over the state,
until a plan that will give the common
wealth consistent system can be devised.
The state is practically a unit in favor of
regulating the liquor traffic: but the sober
second thought will say that a consistent
and general plan is much better than a
checker-board plan. Lauderdale and Col
bert at the two ends of a bridge fully il
lustrate the case. Such situation need
not and should not exist. Why should
Colbert have to bear the pamperism and
crime that grow out of money spent in
a system? What sense?
1t is easy to amend the Moody bill so
that it can either be voted upon in July
in each county, or else voted upon at that
time by the state as a whole. The latter
is the better plan. There are really no
prohibition eonnttes-except on paper-in
and non-blind tiger counties. There is no
reason why a state vote should not be
taken in July, and the law, if it be sane
toned by the people, put into effect on the
following New Years day, as Mr.. Moody
proposes. A law that cannot command the
support of the people can not be enforced,
and should not in the first instance be APP
piled. The Determinations of the present
bill have no warrant whatever in popular
support. They are the likes and dislilSes
Of men who were not specially COM
missioned to speak on the subject of liquor
regulation.

NHE ARMY aEEF SCANDAL

From the New York Herald.
1t is saying a great deal. but it is a fact,
nevertheless. that the army beef question
promises to be the greatest of all the many
scandals of our late war. The new desig-
nation of this item of ration is of itself sig
niflcant of stencil and rottenness.
The Heralds dispatches from different
authentic sources prove beyond cavil that
not only was the meat furnished the army
unwholesome and inedible, but that it was
also "embalmed" by the addition of dam
gerous chemicals. 1t was not enough that
our soldiers should take the risks of battle,
be exposed to deleterious climatic condi-
tons and be neglected in sickness, but they
must also take death in the pot with their
daily food. In this latter matter, as in
many others in which the sufferings of
these men were concerned, there is the usual
disposition on the part of the investigating
committee to ignore facts and to question
the motives of such as offer damaging tes-
timony against responsible officials.
If we mistake not, we are only at the
beginning of an inquiry the ultimate results
of which will astonish the nation. The
deeper this question of army contracts is
probed the more the fraudulent system
upon which they are founded Will be APP
parent The commissary department of the
army faces terrible responsibility in at
tempting to explain how and why much
unwholesome, tainted and "doctored" beef
found it's place on the supply table. When
the real accountability for the wrongdoing
is properly placed, no condemnation can
be too severe against such parties as know
ingly and wilfully tempered with the health
and well being of our valiant men when the
latter needed our most tender care and our
| most thoughtful consideration
| The soldier trusted everything regarding
| his welfare on the ,field to the nation he
| was proud to serve. And yet how has he
been treated? In some instances meat was
| sent to him that was unfit to eat that
| it was Immediately buried. Other sam
| plesS which were prepared for him made
| him sick, while almost everything else in
| the shape of animal food was stale, tough,
| unwholesome and unappetizing.

AGONCILLO
From the Brooklyn Eagle.

From the Brooklyn Eagle.
If Agoncillo and Aguinaldo continue in
their present course they will doubtless find
that the United States government is in no
mood for trifling. It has been discovered
that Agoncillo has sent from Washington
to the Philippine tunta in Hong Kong the
information that action on the treaty will
be taken on February and the suggestion
that the present is a good time to 'strike
for independence" By the sending of
this message Agoncllo has put himself in
the position of spy working in the inter-
ests of enemies of the United States and has
given to us an excuse and justification for
arresting him, and in the event of the out
break of hostilities in Manila at his sug-
gestion, has warranted us to condemn him
to the punishment usually accorded to spies.
Agoncillo does not seem to understand his
position and the men who are giving to
him aid and sympathy do not seem to re-
alize the danger into which they are lead
ing him and his associates.

The cunninaham Convict Bill.

AS The Age-Herald has frequently stated
the Cunningham bill is a good bill so far as
it goes. There Is. however one direction in
which it could be amended without encoun-
tering serious opposition and that amend
ment would consist in holding out the hope
that in the course of ages state farms and
state cotton mills would, in the matter of
convict labor. wholly supplant work in the
thin veins of the Alabama coal fields, where
employment is both dangerous to life and
detrimental to health.
The bill provides that not over so per cent.
of the eonvicts shall be employed at the
mines, or about the present proportion. If
the maximum were decreased even 1 per
cent. a year. there would come a time
when convict coal mining would be ended.
A decrease of ? per cent. year would be
better than l per cent, but a decrease of
/ per cent. would hold out the hope that
the state would eventually handle it's con-
Wet in humanitarian manner. 1t would
establish the states policy, and efforts
would steadily be made to enlarge the
farms and mills in which convicts are en-
ployed.
After all the profitable employment of the
convicts at the state farms is the touch
stone of the case. Convicts are not sent
into mines in Mississippi or Georgia, and in
both states they are proitably employed.
The income of Georgia from her convicts
will soon be very large. If the house would
make the maximum of mine-employed con-
yicts one of a gradual decrease, no mat
ter how small the annual decrease might
be, it would perfect the Cunningham bill,
and establish policy that future legisla-
lures would be apt to respect.
