Official Organ of Webster County. Official Organ of Railroad Commission of Georgia for theß3d;Congressional District AMERICUS, GA., AUG. 21, 1900 What has become of Henry M. Neill, the great cotton prevaricator? We doubt if any one is happier over the rescue of the ministers than the Chinese who industriously wash American clothes. Mr. Bryan told his troubles to a pho nograph the other day, but the machine will get even later on by taking it out on the country. Senator Vest, of Missouri, says that he has tried vacations from Florida to Alaska, but finds that the best place always is at home. One reason that Mr. Bryan is so gen erally respected is that he is sincere. He says what he thinks and what he thinks is generally right. During the year 4,000 thieves have been arrested in Paris. Several coun tesses, a duchess and one princess were among the delinquents. Industrial stocks are worth only half what they were a year ago, and now it is gradually dawning on investors what the trusts were organized for. Hanna is to take the stump in this campaign. This is well. The country is anxious to hear what the boss has to say on the non-existence of trusts. It is a pleasure to be notified of a no mination, but Mr, Bryan would rather have a committee notify Mr. McKinley that he will have to move March 4th. Race hatred is not sectional, says the Rome Tribune. The western men hate the Indians and Chinamen. In New York the negro is hated just as he is in New Orleans. “As soon as John Bull pacifies the Transvaal he W’ill introduce one of his far-famed famines among the benight ed people of that country,” says the Memphis Appeal. The New York World thinks the greatest tribute Mr. Bryan’s speech of acceptance has received thus far is Mr. McKinley’s postponement of his letter of acceptance. The sultan of Turkey has been so quiet of late that somebody must have started a new grocery store in his neighborhood and extended credit to him.—Chicago Record. In the populous manufacturing cen ters there are some men of great wealth whose accumulations are some times astounding. This is what is called the great prosperity. The statement is made that Japan will buy one million bales of cotton this year. If so Japan has increased her spindles faster even than the Caro linas.—Montgomery Journal. Some of Senator Hoar’s enemies are trying to arrange a joint debate be tween the old gentleman when de nouncing the McKinley policy and the old gentleman when commending same. The population of Greater New York as indicated by the count just complet ed at the census office, is 3,437,202. This includes the boroughs of Manhat tan and Bronx and those of Brooklyn, Richmond and Queens. The war in the Philippines is costing the United States $713,527.19 a day. If you would have this drain on national finances stopped, vote for the man who has promised as president to bring the killing of Filipinos to an end. Altogether, the record of McKinley is one that the Republicans—or so many of them as stand by the Presi dent-will have to defend. The Demo crats under the leardership of William J. Bryan, are on the aggressive. HANNA’S FAT FRYING SCHEME. A dispatch to the Philadelphia Times, from Boston, states that Mark Hanna and Cornelius N. Bliss, chair man and treasurer of the Republican National Committee, have gone to that city for the purpose of arousing more enthusiasm in the matter of financial contribution to the campaign fund, winch it is said has been at a rather low ebb for some time,’ “owing to the usual summer shut-down of the mills throughout New England and to gen eral apathy.” About forty business men, bankers and political workers in New England met Hanna and Bliss at the Exchange Club and held a confer ence behind closed doors. The dis patch says: “In speaking of the situation Senator Hanna said that it was thought best to appoint sub-committees in certain sections in New England to draft funds from those who would support the Republican party in this campaign, and do everything possible to dispel the apathetic condition of things as they now apparently exist.” The rather startling statement has been made that it took sixteen millions of dollars to defeat Bryan in 1896. If this statement is correct, and there is much reason to believe it is, a much larger sum will have to be raised to beat him in 1900. The only hope of McKinley’s managers is in the contri bution they can squeeze out of Repub lican manufacturers, and as the exac tions of the managers grow larger and larger year after year it is quite safe to say the collections will become more difficult. This will be experienced to a greater extent in the campaign this year than that of 1896. It is quite plain that the people are not inclined to enthuse over the Re publican ticket and platform. HE FOLLOWED GOOD METHODS. The business methods followed by the late C. P. Huntingdon were very simple, and were as simply described by himself. Some of his maxims are worth preservation. “When you can’t go on horseback go on foot.” “I never work hard, I work easy.” “All honest work is honorable work.” “Work at anything to get enough * money with which to buy a meal. If you earn three cents only spend one of them, then see to it that you are never without money afterward.” “Stand in a porch at night; sleep in a package box, but never become a pauper.” “Run after work: it won’t run after you.” “The vast majority of young men spend too many years of their youth in the classroom. It does no good to cram the mind full of knowledge that will not help a young man in the work he is fitted to do.” “The boy who has the push to suc ceed in life will succeed without the higher education. ” “There is growing up a wall of caste, with honest labor on the one side and frivolous gentility on the other.” HANNA LEARNS MANY THINGS. There are several bits of evidence to show that Mr. Hanna is learning some thing in the way of politics, says the Nashville American. Four years ago it was a sort of “damn the people”cam paign. This time the Senator is not hurting anybody’s feelings. He has broadened. His currying down of Roosevelt for his St. Paul speech, his calling the Hon. John Barrett to the right about for his random talk about Thomas B. Reed, and his answer to Lillie Clay Jewett, who wanted his indorsement for her anti-lynching league, that “it was not a party mat ter,” show the big boss is learning. He has dropped his arrogance and has a ready shake of the hand and a pleas ant smile for one and all. A hard man to down is Hanna, WOULD MAKE THEM PATRIOTS. “The Sermon on the Mount, the De claration of Independence and Bryan’s speech of acceptace of the Democratic nomination at Indianapolis, combined in a text book for our schools and col leges,” says the New Orleans States, “would make any youth in the United States who is inspired by a feeline of humanity and charity, love of freedom and hatred of oppression, a a stalwart Democrat.” President Steyn seems to be in competition with Aguinaldo as to who can be most often reported dead.
