WHEN
Where Money Could Be Saved

Who can tell how many millions OF dol
lars the South sends to the West every
wear for corn and oats and meat which
could be raised in our region?
The $3,OOO,OOO which, it is stated
Texas pays out annually for condensed
milk is a small item compared to what
Georgia sends to other States for canned
fruit and vegetables which shecould save
by utilizing the vegetables and fruits that
are wasted in our own fields every year.
With her almost unriyaled capacity Tor
fruit and vegetable production Georgia
should reap an immense revenue from
canning industries instead of paying out
money for the products OF other States
Happily our people are waking up on
this question. During the past summer
more fruits and vegetables were canned
in this State than ever before in one sea
son. Canneries were established in many
Georgia towns. and Others which had
been in operation before were enlarged
II has been demonstrated that those
who attend to their business properly can
make it profitable. 1t will grow but II
will have to grow a great deal before 1t
reaches the proportions it should have
attained long ago.-Atlanta Journal

Emma eoldman's Outbreak
Chicago Inter ocean,

Emma Goldman's article, published in
the organ of the Chicago anarchists, is an
open, violent attack on our government,
a justification of assassination, and a
glorifcation of assassins. 1t is to be cir
culated broadcast among the classes
most susceptible to anarchistic appeals.
Less than a month after the shooting
of President Mckinley, two weeks after
the funeral at Canton, before the drapery
of mourning has been taken from public
buildings, while flags throughout the
country are still at half-mast, before the
people have recovered from the shock oi
the Presidents death, the person who,
more than any other, melted Czolgosz to
murder the President, is permitted to
publish and circulate a document far
more violent than the one that led to the
assassination in Buffalo.
And yet we are told that the people oil
this city and State and nation are help
less We are told that there is no legal
way to meet the case; that it would be
injudicious to devise one; that, in short,
10000, 900 of people must sit with folded
hands and permit this neiarious work to
on on

CAROLINE COUNTY HAS SIXTEEN
FOOT CORN.
Stalks Are Used For Many Purposes.

Talking of corn" remarked Stephen
r. Beveridge, the Cary street commission
merchant, II have some down at my
store that came TO me from Caroline
county. It is wonderful The stalks are
exactly sixteen feet high, and it is ten
feet to the first year of the corn. 1t has
attracted attention from hundreds Of
people, and believe that az seed corn it
would command good prices The stalks
are six inches around, and are strong
enough TO support the weight Of a small
boy.
Some of the grains on the ear are 20
large that about six Of them weigh an
ounce" continued Mr.. Beveridge. "There
is only one objection to the corn, how
ever, and that is the difficulty encounter
ed in gathering the crop after it has ma
tured. Farmers have to take axes and
chop the stalks down as though they
were cleapiu0 ? foros3 -ss-l jt~'siSes a

is serious problem, and something Is
always transpiring to make the life Of
the poor farmers more and more OPP
pressiye.
"But the best side Of the thing have
not told you about. The farmers up in
Caroline have hit upon the idea OF using
the stalks for frewood in winter. Think
of that, will you? There isanother plan
on foot, and it is now proposed to have
the pith taken out of the stalks and to
use them to carry water to the barns for
the cattle. Got to go2 GoOdby. Come

war in South Africa, but the policy OF the

also cited by Mr. Chamberlain IA a pre-
cedent for threatening the Boer leaders
with Punishment from South Africa and
treating the burghers now in arms az
"banditti." Mr. Chamberlain is certainly
a close student of American history. He
has watched the progress of our war with
the Filipinos, and has read Gen. MacAr-
thurs proclamation informing the fol
lowers Of Aguinaldo thatif they persisted
in guerrilla warfare they would be dealt
with "a bandits. lie has been gratifed
to find that the United States has made
precedents in the past 40 years which
may prove invaluable TO Great Britain
in the present crisis. As to armincrlSI
KaiIrs and using them against the | Me;
Mr. Chamberlain could silence Ame. +bo
criticism by recalling the fact that tile L.
government had nearly DOG. 900 negro
soldiers in its service during the Civil
war. Nobody north OF Mason and Dix
un's line ever admitted that it was wrong
90 arm the slaves in the South and array
them against the Southern white people
II it was right to use the black troops
against the Southern Confederacy it can
not be wrong. in Mr.. Chamberlain Opin-
ion. to use the KaiIir hordes against the
South African republics should Great
Britain ever need the aid OF such allies.
1t must be mortifying to every humane
American to know that when the British
government is assailed for its cruel meth
ods of waging war in South Africa it is
able to retort upon American critics as
effectively as Mr.. Chamberlain did in his
speech in the House of Commons on
Thursday. OF course two wrongs dOnot
make n right and never will Sheridans
tactics in the Valley of Virginia and
Sherman's policy of devastation in
Georgia and South Carolina were practi-
cal illustrations OF the savagery Oh war.
1t was Sherman who said tersely: War
is hell" When Great Britain is now ac-
cused OF making hell OF South Africa
Mr.. Chamberlain may pertinently reply:
Americans are the last people -
ought to object to tactics OF that
We never knew how to wage war il
most efficient way until the US. go n.
ment showed the world how 1t could be
done in the Civil war We have simply
adopted your own tactics and you ought
to be proud that the Mother Country is
willing to learn from your republic. lmi
tationi is the sincerestform of aattery, and
to the best of our ability we are practic-
ing in South Africa the same humanity
which your generals displayed in their
house burning, cattle-stealing, crop-de-
stroying expeditions in the South. We
may not be quite as efficient as you
proved, but in time we hope to show
ourselves masters Of the game.
