We expect to reyolutionize the business

into finished products the crop would be

Prosperity the Issue in the

Col. w. A. Hemphill, of the ATLANTA

and All Other Issues Are Subor-

Col. w. A.. Hemphill. president Of the
Atlanta Constitution Company, was re-
Gently in Chicago. He is enthusiastic
over the future of the South, and his ex-
perience as a newspaper man gives
weight to his utterances. In the Chicago
Evening Post he said:
Democratic leaders will find that the
great battle Of the ballots will have to
be fought, so far as the Democracy is
concerned, against prosperity. All 9th
er issues are subordinated to this one Of
prosperity, and the prosperity the South
Is now enjoying is increasing in volume.
1t will be something marvellous by win
ter, If the present rate is continued. With
cotton selling at 8 to 10 cents, the South
is assured great good times. I have made
investigation and I am safe in saying
that the deposits in Southern banks to-
day are double what they were a year
ago Nearly every national bank has
taken advantage Of the law to issue notes
up to the legal limit.
If a man were to borrow an express
sion from the game Of poker, the South
has q great hand-she has four kinds.
These are cotton, coal, iron and lumber.

Corn and Candy.

During the fiscal year ended July 81,
1899, the consumption of corn for glu-
cose and it's by-products amounted to
over 27,0O0,000 bushels, which is equiva-
lent to the whole yield from one million
acres, based on an average Of Fl bushels
of corn to the acre. From one-third to
one-fourth Of the glucose product of this
same year went directly into the manu-
facture of candy, according to a state
ment which is made by one of the lead
ing authorities in the glucose trade. The
prosperity in the candy trade which Is
directly responsible for such a big part
Of last years great consumption Of glu-
cose, and the absorption at good prices
Of a large portion of the 1899 crop of the
corn growers Of the West, was directly
due to the general prosperity. When
the mills are closed, and the workman
cannot fill his dinner pail with the nee
essaries of life, candy is a luxury for
which there is little demand. That can
dy can now be eaten in the families of
workmen is one of the best evidences of
prosperity that there is.

DEMOCRATS, PONDER THIsl

F41ipinos Ask Providence to Decree
h Election of Bryan.
Maj. Arlington U. Belts Of Toledo,
Ohio, a brave soldier now serving in the
Philippines, writes to friends in his home
city that the Tagal rebels in the islands
are constantly encouraged by men Of the
Bryan stripe to continue killing our SOL
diers, and that the rebellion there can be
suppressed most effectually by ballots
cast in the United States next November.
When the American troops took the
town Of Tobacco, in Luzon, they found
posters everywhere bearing a proclama-
ton, a copy Of which Maj. Belts sends
in his letter. Note we'll the following ex-
tract:
Here is indisputable proof that the in
surgent Filipinos are kept well inform
ed Of Mr.. Bryan's utterances. They know
his sympathy with them. They are en-
couraged to keep on shooting American
soldiers in the hope Bryan will replace
Mckinley and usher in happy hours"

States think Of this?
Are they willing to have Bryan, the
Populist put them on record as allies Of
the rebellious Filipinos?

tues and How to Govern Them.
Brig. Gen. James F. Smith of the vol
unteer army is a Democrat. He was ap-
pointed to the colonelcy Of the First Cal
ifornia volunteers by a Democratic Gov
ernor, James H. Budd. After the con-
clusion Of the treaty with Spain, he was
sent to Negros island as military gov
ernor. Before the Spanish war he was
a practicing attorney in San Francisco,
and in the army his legal talents have
been employed extensively in the Philip
pines. Here is what he says about the
people of Negroes. He was asked:
"And do you believe in the people and
their possibilities"
Il do with all my heart. The more I
see Of them, the better I like them. In
ten years I think that they will be the
most American Americans in the world.
Atkinson's articles have been circulated
by the disturbing element, printed in
the Visayan language and have done US
a great deal of harm, unless we want to
keep the rebellion alive"
Gen. Smith does not give much oppor-
tunity for his one-time political allies to
shout.

The Plan that Failed.

The Filipino insurgents, some time be-
fore the war broke out between the
United States and Spain, got up a sched-
ule Of their grievances against the rule
of the Spaniards. There were over TWEEN
ty specifications, not one of them would
be possible under the American flag.
The Filipinos who were induced to take
up arms against the United States, at
ter the Spanish rule was broken, were
in the enjoyment Of liberties unheard of
in all their experience. The only thing
they complained of was that the United
States did not turn them over to the one
man of their race who claimed to W
them, and the whole country also, with
out a shadow Of authority from the in
habitants. The Aguinaldo plan was, af-
ter he had appointed himself, to proclaim
that the people had ratified the appoint
ment and then become lord Of a thousand
islands because he had been appointed
and ratified as the successor in despot-
ism Of the departed Spaniards.
