What Course to Follow.


had been triumphantly successful that the
copperheads ventured to come out of their
holes.
What Course to Follow.
What course. let me ask. would these
men have had the United States to follow?
What in honor or humanity could the
United States have done, other than what
has been done? Should we, as soon as the
Spaniards surrendered Manila, have turned
over the Philippine Islands. and all and
everything thereon, to the tender mercies
of Aguinaldo and his camp followers? Had
we done SO those who surrendered to the
Americans and passed under the protection
of our flag would have been subject to
rapine, plumber and death, and we would
have had upon our hands the innocent
blood of the conquered. 1t was due to our
honor and to humanity that the very course
pursued by the administration at Wash
ington should be followed. Who were to
govern: what character of government was
to be finally established, was not a proper
question for settlement at that moment
The first thing to be secured was peace and
protection. And for that we are now fight
ing in the Philippines. We are pledged to
the world to secure 1T, and If the United
States Is to maintain her position among
civilized nations we must in good faith per-
form those duties which stand higher than
the determination of what men shall hold
the civil offices in the Philippine Islands
I'm the cloud of Misrepresentation and
calumny which our opponents have raised
on this Philippine question they ignore the
facts of history. They talk about the
slaughter Of innocent Filipinos who are
begging for mercy and peace. There is
no slaughter of innocent Filipinos. Those
whom our troops are encountering are
armed rebels, seeking to destroy the au-
thority Of the United States in the terri
tory which by the arbitrament Of war and
by the terms of the treaty of Paris passed
under our control. There has never been

THE KIND OF POLITICS THAT IS AS
BARREN OF GOOD RESULTS AS
THE SANDS OF SAHARA.

THE SANDS OF SAHARA.
A wise legislator for the South should
do everything in his power to bring
about this condition of things. Com
pared with its beneficial results petty
partisan politics sinks into utter insig-
nificance. The elevation to public
positions of few politicians seems
now to be the chief end and aim of
political work. There is no patriotism
in such work there is no progress in
such a policy there is no good result
ing from it to the great body of the
people. It is dry, barren waste, such
a policy is as sterile of good results as
the sands of Sahara are of good crops.
There are but few politicians of the
present day who look to the good OF
the people rather than to the good OF
themselves. There are some, how
ever. I believe that Theodore Roose-
velt, of New York. is one of those men
who is willing to work for the good OF
his country. I believe today he occu-
pies a higher plane in the political
world than any man in America, and
I say this although my political affilia-
tions have not been with him. He
speaks the truth he is not afraid to
follow the convictions of his mind and
conscience, and is thoroughly honest
in the discharge of his duty, whether
that duty be popular or unpopular.
WE WANT INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT
RATHER THAN POLITICAL
PREFERMENT.
We want public men of more back
bone and broader ideas that will look
to the development of the industrial
interests of the country rather than to
political preferment for themselves,
Our public men should teach the grand
truth that the oppression of any one
industry, whether operated under cor
porate or individual powers, is death
blow to that industry wherever it is
practiced. Such oppression is the re-
suit of pure unadulterated ignorance
and stupidity. 1t comes often times
from the union Of ignorance, Jealousy
and prejudice. 1t comes from the

Robbed the Grave

A startling incident of which Mr..
John Oliver, of Philadelphia. was the
subject, is narrated by him as follows:
Il was in a most dreadful condition.
My skin was almost yellow, eyes
sunken, tongue coated, pain contin-
ually in back and sides no appetite
gradually growing weaker day by day.
Three physicians had given me up.
Fortunately, a friend advised trying

and surprise, the first bottle made q

their use for three weeks, and am now

SHE DIMES ON CLAY.
KaOIin Considered "a Dietary Luxury
by Scrubyoman.

The custodian of the Georgia state
sidcrs ordinary kaolin clay a dietary
luxury. Her name is Annie Williams.
aud she is a fair specimen of the clay
eaters. who can be found in some parts
of the state. On the third floor of the
State Administration building is an ex-
hihit of the natural products of Geor-
Gia, including marbles, clay, kaolin,
etc.
Annie is one of the charwomen
whose duties lie in keeping the spot
less marble OF the building in perfect
condition, and her work frequently
took her to the third floor. For some
time the janitor noticed that n large
block of kaolin was gradually disap-
penring, and one day, examining il
closely, discovered unmistakable tooth
marks.
Annie was watched and her guilt es-
tablished beyond doubt. When ques-
toned as to her abnormal propensities,
she could give no satisfactory explana-
ton. concluding with the statement
that "she jes' had a nachul likin to
dat white dirt and couldn't hep chaw-
in IL when she got de chance" She
has been informed that the state main

"A cooking stove is about as easy to

but they concluded at once that it was
