In the perron of Hon. O. B. Stevens, of |
Vvnii- strongly ,e> rd to support Air. |
Sl.ven’H candidacy, The News has hesita- I
ted to do ro uni-l that gentleman could ;
acquit him elf of cnarg. s connect- j
Ini4 him with a certain political ;
< ortiin,'- who .which we were not

Ours is a lifetime acquaintance with the
g< nt .hi from 11 a.id our esteem I
for ai d i oi.fhirnce in him in as deep as
out k: 0.. I. .•«<• of him long. So that, in
th.' very l> ~,;. qn;.;■'<• tions of a public
sc.-viiii Imm ty i integrity—we know
him to b.- all : i;. he -t.ouM be. Added to
this s ability ai d exp. rlence, both as an
agri'iilturi . ,i..d a b'l-'inesa man. that
p.-<■-< n.in( tilly li ; him forth place. His
own sum i in th. . lines is the best evi
dence of this - qualities, and, from a
Mrlctly practical - undpoint. his election,
if s< < ms to it-, would be most fortunate for
f' e stall.
Mr. Stev.i:-’ long public and party ser
vice also entitles him to recognition. He
has been a life-long D■ mocrat. ami has
several times sacrificed his personal ambi
tion to serve his party and preserve Its
prim jibs Mr Stevens ha' also served in
bo-It brtn. m s of tie- legislature several
times, tu:! is thoroughly familiar with
'puidii . fft' r-. In f. '(• is, in < very way,
<< ( mp.d for the position to which he as
pires.
Ami last hut not b ast, his section of
the state is cb .irly entit.lt d to recognition
at the hands of the state Democracy. It
has always been a Democratic "stronghold,
and no man has worked more zealously to
ket p it so than has O. B. Stevens.
Ag.-t'ist Commissioner Nisbett The
News has nothing to say: About the
chargt • of mismanagement we know noth
ing. but t v n were h" above reproach, he
would still have no stronger claims on the
place than can be urged for Mr. Stevens.
The latter Is in every way his equal: and,
as we believe, his superior in point of
business ability and in practical knowl
edge of agriculture.
Mr. Stevens, as v> ■.< happ n to know be
yond the shadow of a doubt, is in no polit
ical combine or deal that might estrange
those who would otherwise support him.
He is simply "toting his own skillet," and
stands on his own merits alone. Mr. Ste
ve.-. l:.:s entered the race with every as-
of Mtece < He has the hearty
endorsement of a majority of the party
leader; in tlte state. ami he will win the
conf'dc'K" and votes of the people as soon
as he goes ar . ng them.
The Sava ~:ah Press notes that three
daughters of members of ex--President
('lev. land's Caniii.t have committed sui
cide. Miss Hi j.i-d took an overdose of
chloral. Mi < Garland sho: herself with a
pistol Both happened in the first admin
istration. Miss Herbert's sad death was
the third case.
Advice For the New Year.
Here 'is some advice for the mew year
that hould receive the attention of every
merel.ant and advertiser. It applies here
in Macon as < Is, where, and it is the ver
dict of an exj»ert Who 'has spent more in
advertising in a year Chan is spent iby all
the advertisers of Macon in three or four
years. la is found in Printers Ink. and is
as follows:
"If you would advertise and become
wealthy, spend your money with the daily
jsiiper. If your money for advertising pur
poses increases, put that also into the
daily paper. There is not a weekly paper
in existence today, aside from the class
journals, that a judicious advertiser can
aftorvl to use; for there are dailies enough
to absorb his appropriation, and for every
dollar he will Invest, the daily gives great
er and bettor service than the weekly can
afford."
In this connection it is well to go
further and state that (the largest and
most successful advertisers of the country
are using the bulk of their appropriation
with the afternoon papers. They give a
good reason for this- wthich is thait the
aft moon paper reaches the buyers, by
reason of the fact that it goes into the
homes of the people, and is carefully read
every evening when there is time and in
clination for reading. And because, too.
the afternoon papers, as a rule, have the
largest eireulatjons. It is not out of place
to state that both reasons hold good in
Maeon. as elsewhere. The News guaran
ti es mere readers in Maeon and suburbs
t -an any ther paper. The merchant who
makes « New Y< ar resolution to spend his
money for advc-, rising with the daily pa
per. ami the bulk of the amount with the
aft: moon paper will profit by his decision
during the year 1898.
Today we all get a new
An Independent Line.
There cot: :d be no more gratifying news
to .he ptople of Macon than the announce
ment the Louisville and Nashville
railroad .is at last, firmly and perma
nentlj established its sole right to -the
control of the Georgia road, -an important
branch cf wh:.h enters this city and gives
us an .nd.penden line to the North. East
and M es;.
a ‘ St '' :s not heretofore exaggerat

hrough the consolidation of her several
con.ing lines of railread, nor can it
now ov restimaie the bemfit to this city

Lomsvtlle - I Nashville is a strong sys -
V ro g " ve ' le Southern and
its alned lines all (the competition bhev
wan'—and more. We hope and expect to
see active railroad competition in this
city from now on.
This, however, does not relieve the
Southern Railway of responsibility for its
act in .ons dilating competing lines of
railroad in Georgia in direct violation of
me s ate s constitution That issue must

The Chamb’r of Commerce.
Th<» annual meeting of the Chamber of
; Commerce will be held next Monday tnorn-
I ing a; 10:20 o’clock, it la highly important
I that every business man in (who
j should be a member of the chamber, if
I be is not) ahouid be present to take pari
j in the < leciiou of officers for IS9S, and la
assist is infusing new life info the organ-
l It i« generally admitted that prompt,
, active efforts must be made to save tne
Cnamber of Commerce from dtsrupttaa.
■ lor sorr.- r<arou. it has never been prop-
I eriy sustained by the business men of
Ma'on. and the time aas now come when
’ the final test must be made, if they want
» the Chamber of Commerce to live, they
mus; come together Monday next, and sig-
■ nify it. OtberwUe the iosuurtiou will
I coDt.nue to drag aiong, until, at least, its
I usefulness will be entirely destroyed.
I Otrnr cuies have commercial bodies of
s character that are foremost in every
thing that tends to benefit or develop tbe.r
cities. They accomplish something be
cause the people of the .ommunity show
le proper interest. The people of Ma
con must do likewise if taq Chamber of
(»n»merce is to accomplish anything in
; the future.
A great many names have been men
tionde for the presidency, and k is grati-
Tying to observe that the mention of one
name in particular has already seemed to
! arouse interest in the organization. It is
gen-rally conceded that if Mr. W. B.
Sparks can be induced to accept
the presidency of the Chamber of
I Commerce the institution will take on new
j life and make itself felt in the affairs of
i the community. So far Air. Sparks has
■ oetn averse to allowing his name used in
j this connection, but It is believed he could
; tc prevailed upon to serve if elected. And
; there is a 'general disposicon to thrust
j the honor upon him at the meeting next
I M r,day morning. Let all who favor suoh
a wise arrangement be present to -see it
■ consummated. Let the few who may op
pest i: be present, too —for the same pur-
i '
; The wonderful invention which has just
I app ared in is said to be the
; greatest oi the century in tae science of
telegraphy. "By its means," says the New
Orleans Times-Democrat. “ a man may sit
| ala typewriter in Chicago and write a
message which will be reproduced in type
written manuscript in New York, and that
without the aid of an operator at the re
ceiving cad of the line. The machine,
which is known as the telescriptor, has
been exhibited recently in Berlin, where it
aroused a great deal of interest among
electricians. Its successful operation
seems to have solved the problem of sim
ple and rapid apparatus for writing at a
distance. Numerous tests have proved Its
success.”
Ex-Princess Cbimay is at present the
Imprt ssarla of a Hungarian Gypsy band of
musicians. She is now traveling through
I’oland and expects to give concerts in St.
Petersburg shortly. Reports say she is
coining money by the trunkful in her new
venture with her dusky band. Nothing is
heard about Rigo being with the troupe,
so it is evident that he has received the
"conge” from the ex-princess.
The Dalian Argus says. “The Argus
argus agrees with the Macon News, when
it says in regard to the recent Orth Stein
sensation: » * ♦ ‘That was a true bill,
if we know one when we see it. And no
man can claim to have reformed, nor ob
ject to having his skirts uncovered, if he
makes it his life work to feed the sensa
tionalists by uncovering the skirts of
others. There is no mission oa earth for
a paper of the Stein variety.’”
The poet Keats, in 1818, made the fol
lowing predii'tion: ’’Russia mav spread her
conquests over to China —I think it is a
very likely thing that China itself may
fall. Turkey certainly will. Meanwhile
European north Russia will hold its horns
against the rest of Europe, intriguing con
stantly with France.”
"The result of the senatorial election,”
declares an Ohio exchange, “all depends
on the nerve of Governor Bushnell.” If
this is true. Mr. Hanna will be justified in
plai'ng an order for his fireworks, thinks
the Washington Post,
The story published by a New York pa
per that a reporter, who died recently in
that city at 74 years, left a large estate,
will be generally looked upon as another
piece of yellow journalism, thinks .the
Birmingham News.

and. at the same time, on the next sena
torial race. Editor Blackburn exclaims:
"’Possums don’t get ripe until persimmon
time, but Bacon is good all the year
round.”
The Indian government, for financial
reason.', is negotiating for the sale of its
state railroads to private parties. Evi
dently the single gold standard is not
panning out as well as expected, thinks an
exchange.
One of the evils threatening the youth
ful minds of the immediate future is the
difficulty of mastering the world's geogra
phy as it has been variously gerrymander
ed, mentions the Chicago Record.
It is intimated upon high authority, that
the Czar of Russia is also crazy. Accord
ing to Kaiser Bill he and the Czar have
the same political views.
Here is the Christmas record of arrests
for three Georgia cities: Atlanta 305; Sa
vannah 93, Macon 24. This is a complete
answer to .Macon’s accusers.

CHICAMAUGA
May be the Place Where the
State Troops Will Camp
This Year,
The indications are that all of the state
troops are to be sent to camp at Chicka
mauga for a week at the usual time next
i summer, and that the course of duty will
I be somewhat different from that at Camp I
; Northcn for several summers past. In
i other words, the troops are to do regular ■
field duty from day to day. in accordance !
I with plans of the commanding officers, of !
i which the troops will be in ignorance un- I
til the moment the orders are to be exe- !
cuted. this all being predicated upon the ■
supposition that the proposed plan will be I
adopted.
It is not unlikely that the troops will j
look with favor upon such a plan, though
they have had little c>pportunity of dis
cussing the matter. Os recent years the
military has gotten entirely rid of the idea
that an emcampment means a week of fun
and sport, and has discovered that it
means a week of hard work, and plenty
of it. Doubtless, therefore, they will be
glad of the change for one season at least
from Camp Northen to Chickamauga.
There was one encampment held at Chick
amauga, but for many who went there it
was a season of gaiety, though for others
of work. Should the proposed plan be
adopted, the next time the boys go there
they will, no doubt as a rule, meet with
very different experiences.
MAY RECALL ABERDEEN.
London, Jan. I.—There is a report that
the Marquis »f Hereford will succeed the
Earl of Aberdeen as governor-general of

to bear to have Aberdeen recalled, it be

dian political affairs that did not concern
him.

It applies to the purchase of Whiskies

If we can save you a dollar on a $2 pur

If we could not do this it would not pay
us to advertise the fact, would it?
This is a straight business proposition;
we quote prices to prove what we say.
Read the list below, compare the prices for
these goods, and see if you cannot save
at least 50 per cent, by buying from us. I
Don't imagine now, because we make *
I this REMARKABLE REDUCTION, that
