A Greater Macon. i
The resolution introduced ,n council by <
Aiderman Huthnance last nignt should 1
•trike n responsive chord in the heart of 1
every true .Maconite—and by that term is
meant every citizen of this community
within a radius of thr<e miles; for, after v
all. w.- arc all citizens of Macon, so long 0
n our interests, our hopes and our arnbi- *
, d
tions arc centered here, no matter where
we keep our trunk. ( j
Macon i> destined to he a city of con
siderable size and importance. Natural
advantages portend this, an 1 it is only for s
her own people to say whether or not the n
shall make a long step forward at once, or
whether her growth shall b? slow and a
In no ( htru.iy can Macon accomplish
th« de>dr< 1 end so quickly as by claiming
that which is already hers—a population g
third in size to any Georgia city. With a
uhis dura , the balance will be made easier, o
The mere act of annexing the outlying s
li.itrir : . will give Macon a population, (
six. and importance that she could not se- s
cure by ten years of slow, tedious growth, f,
It would give her a prestige that is val- t
u .ble to any city. It would enhance the 1
value of every piece of property in Macon, f
and, (specially, du the annexed parts. It s
would, too, give the latter benefits that t
they cannot hope to secure in any other t
way. b
Looking at the proposition from a strict
ly etf'.sh standpoint, The News would p
favor annexation because it would Increase \
•the value and earning power of its prop- fi
erty. A new paper published in a city of a
60,000 inhabitants is Worth more and can
ei rnniand mere business and more for fits t
ep.i'e than can a newspaper published in p
u city of 35,000 population. And the same c
applies to every elass of business in Ma- *
con. b
p
But for other and broader reasons our 0
people as a whole should join in the cry
for a Greater .Macon. There are, of course,
matters of detail to be considered In F
bringing about such an arrangement, but
wo have no doubt that, once our people g
have shpwn a disposition to consolidate j
their interests, a satisfactory adjustment
of al! differences could be made. 1
f
The main obj< etlon of certain suburban {
residents has been the danger of liquor f
itraffle in certain residence sections. We
do not believe this objection will hold good
when properly considered; for we do not •
(believe the people of Macon could or would '
elect men to council who would dare to tn- j.
i emit their constituents and so far override
> their wishi s and ignore their interests as
to license a barroom to do business where
it would bo so clearly offensive and
dotriniental to the interests of all con- i
cerncd. Nor do we believe any man would !
be fool i nough to pay the SSOO license to '
do business in a sparsely settled residence
neighborhood, when even the best saloons,
in the best business portion of the city, 1
find it difficult to do business profitably. 1
. I
But all of these matters could be consld- j
cred and disposed of at the proper time, t
The thing now' is to create a sentiment
that would bring such negotiations about.
Aiderman Huthnance’s resolution is the 1
first step in the right direction. Let every j
•well wisher of Macon, and every man who
can be broad enough to see that his own
interests are mutual with those of the I
community at large, join in the cry for a <
Greater Macon. !
Senator Chandler Is Insistent that Sec
retary Gage be stopped in his mad finan- s
cial career, or the Republican party will .
be slaughtered at the elections of 1898. ,
Secretary Gage cannot be stopped because c
he officially represents the sentiments and
influences in control of the 'administration;
but Senator Chandler Is right about the s
other thing. The American people are ]
only waiting for a chance to get at the t
Republican party again, at the polls, when ]
they ■will be kindly ’ remembered among i
the things that were, but never will be ;
again. i
Hanna Doomed to Defeat. i
The purse, sword and patronage of the
national administration, the trusts and
combines and all the corrupt influences
that could be operated in behalf of Hanna. ,
have been actively working to secure his ]
purchase of a seat in the Senate. The (
Republican national committee flooded the
weekly press of Ohio with free supplement
sheets giving reasons why the Boss must
be elected.
Rut. notwithstanding these strenuous
efforts it begins to look like Hanna will .
be left at the post.
The dispatches from Columbus indicate
that the combine has been successful in ,
everything it has undertaken up to date,
and even Hanna, himself, begins to see the
'handwriting on the wall.
Some of the Democratic members insist
th. breach is so wide and, according
to .ho dispatches, so deep now between the
lyptial ■. ?. that John R. McLean or some
other free silver Democrat could be elect
ed over Hanna.
The ann.unccment yesterday by the Re
publicans that they would have no joint
senatorial caucus previous to the ballot-
< tor will compel all to continue

but w;t„ ,;>.e result depending on the uc
, ‘' p or L’-ee doubtful members.
N< ie- • > con Zow its hand, exposing
' • "-Utts o- “•>? deserters to terrific fire,
for at has: a we- v. rhe steering commit
<tces will try to have all members located 1
before balloting begins. The senate and
house will ballot separately next Tuesday i
for senator.
A press dispatch says Mrs. Draper, wife I
of United States Minister Draper, at Rome. I
almost rivaled Queen Margherita at the >
New Year reception in the value and mag- I
nificence of her diamonds. Minister Dra- !
per seems to be determined to uphold the
“honor and dignity' 1 of his country at any
price. He Ilves In a palace at Rome for
which he pays $12,000 a year, which is the
amount of his salary. He has entirely re
furnished this immense building with the
most costly furniture and works of art,
and entertains in the most princely style.
When such men as Benjamin Franklin I
went arboad to represent this Democratic ‘
republic, they lived as Democrats. Now j
we must have flunkeys abroad.
The New Year Polnts the Way.
The New Year comes, bearing the prom
ise and the potency of an increase of bet
ter times to the nation and its people. The
way to prosperity for the merchant is
through an increase of profitable trade;
and the way to get this is through judi
cious advertising.
Here in Marron the most judicious ad
vertising is that done through the col
umns of The News. It has the two ele
ments of circulation which a paper must
f/ossess to be a good advertising medium
quality and quantity. Its local circulation
is larger than that of any other Macon
paper; it goes into the homes of the peo
ple, thus reaching tnose who do the buy
ing.
The new year is going to witness a
great increase in businese. It will not
come with a rush, but week by week an
advance will be shown. The way to be
in it is tc advertise vigorously; and The
News is the best advertising medium in
Macon and Middle Georgia.
In 1883 the pension list was published,
and as a result, a great many frauds were
discovered. There is a popular demand
for anotner publication of the list, in
view of a widespread suspicion that it is
full of rottenness.
McKinley’s Foreign Policy.
Unless President McKinley settles the
foreign complications that are staring the
Lnited States in the face, in away satis
factory to American sentiment, he may
have Congress on his hands for a much
longer period than he may desire. There
is a growing feeling among senators that
( ongress should adjourn until some posi
tive steps have bee ntaken in matters now
pending, in which this government has a
vital interest. In other words, the Con
gress is afraid that the president will not
<leal with the subjects in that American
way promised for him before election, but
of which there has been .no evidence. The
lack of vitebrae on the part of the presi
dent is causing severe criticism, and these
criticisms are growing tn intensity every
day.
While Hanna's successful purdiase of a
seat in the Senate would be worth half a
million votes to the Democratic party, any
man calling himstlf a Democrat who would
vote for him should be court-marshaled
and shot on Che spot. ,
The Senate and Negro Appointments.
It remains to be seen whether the United
SRates will ratify by its endorsement, the
appointment of negro postmasters and
other high positions jn the Southern
states. Mr. McKinley can only appoint
with and by the consent of the senate. Will
the American senate give its consent to
such an indecent insult as has been of
fered the Southern people by Mark Hanna
through the administration, in appointing
the negro delegates to the St. Louis con
vention, who sold their votes to secure
the nomination of .Major McKinley? The
senate should turn them down as fast as
they come to them, and put the seal of
their condemnation upon such disreputa
ble and disgraceful practices.
The scarcity of those delectable 'birds of
prey, government detectives, around
Washington for the past week is accounted
for, says a Washington dispatch, by their
appearance in large numbers at Columbus,
Ohio, to help out the dirty work of the
<reat Purchasing agent of the Administra
tion in his desperate effort to buy a seat
in the United States senate. This gang is
employed at government expense to dog
the footsteps of all the Republican mem
bers and leaders of the party who dare op
pose the ambitious aims and corrupt meth
ods of $ Mark Hanna.
The sable faction of the Republican
party in Alabama are endeavorinig to de
feat the confirmation of L. J. Bryant for
marshall of (the Southern district of the
state. Mr. Bryant is a gentleman, well
known and highly respected throughout
:he state, and is the choice of the better
Clement or the party, and will mo.ho a
faithful and efficient officer. As both of
the distinguished Alabama senators are
for 'him, he will be confirmed.

In His Pocket Was a Letter to a Young
Lady in Columbus.
Waycross, Ga., Jan. 5 —A young white
man killed himself last night at Millwood,
this county, by a dose of morphine. He
went to Millwood last night. When he
starred to his room he said he was very
tirtd and sleepy and wanted to sleep until
a late hour this morning. After the break
fast hour this morning he was called. No
answer being received, tthe door was open
ed. The young man was lying on his bed
as if sleeping and had been dead for some
time. Morphine is supposed to have pro
duced his death. Coroner Grimes was
summoned and went up .to Millwood at
noon to hold an inquest. The coroner re
turned this evening. He had two letters
■written by the man. One purported to be
from J. L. Boss and the o>ther from J. L.
Parrott. He said his name was Parrott.
A letter signed Boss was addressed to Miss
Minnie Thomas, Columbus, Ga., whom he
told he would not have killed himself had
he met her six months ago under better
circumstances. He professed love for her
and spoke of his approaching suicide. The
other letter was to a man.
