A SPLENDID RECORD.

Hon. o. B. Stevens, state commits
sioner of agriculture, has announced
that he is a cand ale for reelection,
and the hundreds of complimentary
notices regarding his administration
which have come unsolicited from the
state press must be exceedingly graft
fying to him and his friends.
The office which Mr.. Stevens holds
has never since its establishment been
more ably occupied than at present
and so far as is known his administra-
tion of it's affairs has given eminent
satisfaction throughout the state
certainly it has to the farmers, whose
interests he SO largely represents and
from among whom he came.
Prior to Mr.. Stevens incum oency
the office of state commissioner OF az
riculture played a very small, almost
insignificant, part in the affairs OF the
state, and great many persons we're
IGNORANT that such an Office existed.
Things are changed now. Mr.. Stew
ems has not been content with simply
revolving round in predetermined
orbit. He has paid into the treasury
as proceeds of his Office more money
than any of his predecessors, and has
introduced many needed and useful in
novations, never failing 10 take the
initiative in any step of progress look
inc toward the further advancement
of agriculturists and agricultural In
1erests. His course in this respect
has upouestionably endeared him tt
that class of people from whom be anc
whatever opponents he may have ere
the campaign closes expect votes anC
support. !.
From a reasonable viewpoint a
would appear very doubtful that Mr.
Stevens can be defeated for reelection
He ia seeking well.merited endorse
ment of his administration. and it Il
more than probable that the people o
the state. fully appreciating his thor
ough capability, progressiveness an'
couscientiousness, will overwhelming
ly accord it.

due to war, starvation and disease
Every variety of outrage, from COM
mon theft to rape and murder, has
been perpetrated under the guise OF
civilized warfare. This is our war OF
benevolent assimilation" forsooth--a
war in which the military forces OF
the United States are proceeding TO
inject civilization and christianity sub
cutaneously by means of gunpowder.
A soldier of the volunteer army STA

SUN DOG SEEN.
An Unusual Appearance of the Snn
Friday Morning.

From the Macon Telegraph.
The queer appearance of the sun
Yesterday morning just after the
breakfast hour put many people to
guessing.
They saw what was described as a
large white ring with the sun in the rim
at one side of it, and short distance
on each side of the sun was " hat APP
peared to be another sun, making
three luminaries visible at once.
Weather Observer Weeks made the
following explanation:
ut is what is called halo and, in
lust the form in which it occurred
today, is quite rare in the southeast
ern states Farther north and north
west they are more frequent. and In
Canada and the far northwest are
frequently composed of quite compli-
Gated series of circles or portions OF
circles, some times as many as seven.
The bright spots are at the lntersec-
Uions of the circles and are called
mock suns, or sun dogs. The circles
are caused by the reflection and re-
fraction of the light from the floating
ice crystals that form the upper clouds
that we often see. When these crys-
tails are of about the same size and
float suspended in the air in similar
manner to each other the result Is a
solar or lunar halo, according 10 which
ever orb may be shining. The tenn
perature OF the air is one degree lower
for every 1873 feet that we rise, so that,
even ia the summer, the temperature
at the level of the highest cloud is
freezing. These halOs have no partlc"
ular meaning in regard to weather
changes, except that they are more
likely to occur in cold weather, but in
the north west it is often thought that
they Indicate that colder weather is
approaching"

JUDGE III. C. SHEFFIELD.

Hon. H. C. Sheffield is candidate
for reelection to the judgeship OF the
Pataula circuit at the state primary

and it will be surprising If any does.
Judge Sheffields incumbency has CIV
en- universal satisfaction, and the dock

than ever before. He is a Jurlst TO

eminently just and fair, and impatient
of needless delay. BY nature a thor

THE NEED OF ACTION.

Tn the local columns of this issue OF
The News it will be seen that astrong
..nd determined effort has been begun
to erect in Dawson large Gotten fac'
tory. to cost one hundred or one hun
dred and fifty thousand dollars. Prom
inent business men of Dawson are re-
sponsible for the laudable movement
men who are themselves successful
in business and the world of finance,
and in whom the citizens of Dawson
and Terrell county have confidence re-
sultant from observation. These gem
tlemen are agreed that this shall be
no chimerical vision, beginning and
ending on paper, but a thing of fact,
a reality. Believing that the people
of Dawson duly appreciate their efforts
ip behalf Of the city's upbuilding ana
progress, they naturally expect hearty
sympathy, cooperation and support
Don't let's disappoint them. 1t is
useless to argue the need of a cotton
factory here, or to speak OF its manifold
advantages. There isn't taxpayer
in the county who will not readily ad-
nit both. Then let's rally as unit
to the'support of any effort in the di'
rection of realization. Let's pull to-
gether, erybody, with will and get
the cotton factory, which can be had
for the effort.

war commanding general OF the Unit
