Offices: Corner Second and Cherry Streets. Shall Tammony Dictate? The Clevelandites, who have conceived it their duty to bark at Bryan ever since Clevelandism was repudiated by the dem ocratic party at its last national conven tion, and wno are just now rejoicing be cause Tammany and its chief organ show an inclination to desert Bryan, are going to have a difficult time reconciling them selves to Tammany dictation. ■For this is the issue involved in Tam many's effort to overthrow Bryan and raise up Van Wyck. Just as it was the irnrue when Tammany sought to over throw Cleveland and raise up Hill. The men who now rejoice at Tammany s in cipient revolt were a few years ago the most bitter in their denunciation of the (New York political machine, and its as sumption of the right to dictate in na tional politics. But they are now per fectly willing that a political machine and a few New York “bosses” shall dictate, provided they can cause the overthrow of Bryan. This is consistency of the purest ray serene. Hut Tammany can no more distate to day than it could a few years ago. Indeed, •its present hold on the party is as nothing compared with what it was then. Today a different class of men are at the helm; men who are terribly in earnest, men who are devoted to a principle and who will fight for that principle to the last ditch. And this is as it should be. If the Dem ocratic party is small enough ito be con trolled by a New York political machine, then It deserves defeat, deserves to be disrupted, in order that a party with (higher aims and a nobler ipurpose may rise to light the people’s battles. If such polit ical tricksters and bosses as Croker and Sheehan can shape the course of the Dem ocratic party, then it is time for the de cent element of the party to pull out. If the selfish aims of a few New York bosses can cause the party to put aside the great est, most earnest and most forcible leader ■lt ihaa had in years, to take up a New York lawyer of mediocre ability, who owes his present position to the fact that he can be controlled by Dick Croker, then the best element of the parly would be justified in following their brilliant leader into what ever party he might lead them. But none of these things are (likely. There is not. the remotest probability that Tammany can gain serious attention for Van Wyck. It was in a better position to force Hill on the party, because in Hill it had a man of ability, but it failed. There is nothing at all in Van Wyck, and less ■that Is good in Tammany than ever, ■and it . is the height of presumption for this New York politeal club to attempt to dictate to the party. Its effort, and that of its organ, the New York Journal, might lead to some gotsl if It would result In losing Tammany to the Democratic party forever. For such a machine is a disgrace to any po litical party, and the Democratic party has suffered more through the sins of Tam many than it lias ever gained from 'the connection of that most obnoxious organi zation. In the meantime, we have all Jived to see • 'levelandism applaud Tammany, and to bless the name of Croker. For the very net—attempt at dictation —(.hat they con demned only a few years ago. The Chattanooga News says: "The man ufacturers are likely to suffer «*tuore than they guulti by the newspapers that have started the agitation to exempt them from taxation. Just taxation and not no tax ation is the demand of the really suc cessful manufacturing establishments. If they' can't stand ordinary and proper as sessments. they are generally too weak to live under any clrftimstances.” Macon’s Paving. The News has before alluded to the character of the paving work being done on Fourth street, and we then stated that such paving would be one of the best ad vertisements Macon could have. and ■would attract attention far and near. In the city today is a delegation of Sa vannah officials, who are here for the ex pressed purpose of Inspecting the Fourth street paving, having heard that it is the best piece of granite paving ever laid in the South —which is a fact. We are convinced that these Savannah ians will not fail to be Impressed, as oth ers have been, with the Fourth street paving. It has been a revelation to all os us—especially those of us who de manded other materials, in order to se cure smoothness and noiselessness. We knew at the outset that we would have to sacrifice durability, to a certain extent, to secure these other qualities, but we were willing to do this, so great was our dread of Belgian block pavements. Since the beginning of the work on Fourth street, however, we have been forced to admit, as our Savannah visitors, will be, that there is no need to sacrifice durability in order to secure smoothness and noiselessness. We have had it prac tically demonstrated that the three are combined in the granite cube pavement, when properly laid —as the Macon paving has been. We doubt if there is a piece of paving work in the country that will equal it, and we only hope this class of paving will be used for the entire city. Because it will give us a permanent and. at the same time, satisfactory pavement—-will make .Macon the best paved city In the South. And, in the same connection, we think Macon's interests would be best served by giving the entire contract to the home enterprise that has done so well by their city in this first contract. We see noth ing to be gained by going elsewhere for contractors when It has been abundantly demonstrated that our home folks have excelled all competitors in this class of work. If uhe present price is satisfactory, we see no good reason why council should not exercise its own discretion in contin uing the work as already begun, without the formality and expense of calling for new bids, which wall involve delay .->> well as extra expense and cause the present paving and quarrying forces to be dis banded while waiting for the letting of the new work. We have yet to see a citizen who is not both elated and surprised at the character of the Fourth street paving, and we be lieve to continue the work without inter ruption would give greater satisfaction to - greater majority of people than would any other arrangement. We think, too, a little investigation by our Savannah friends will convince even the most skeptical of their number that the granite cube is the thing, where a durable, smoothe, noiseless pavement is desired, and we know Savannah will have cause to rejoice over their visit .to Macon if it results in giving that city one suet thoroughfare as Fourth street. An exchange thinks that Ignatius Don nelly's experiment of marrying his type writer will be watched with interest bj those employers who think it cheaper t< pay the typewriter’s wages. They Are Safe. The various aentiemen who have been mentioned in connection with the coming gubernatorial race will all breathe easier after reading the editorial in yesterday's Telegraph announcing the intention of that paper to espouse the cause of no par ticular candidate. They will all breathe a sigh of relief, now that they are in no danger of incurring the support of that paper. It is a thing that has worried them all no little, and it has even been intimated that a certain gentleman hesitated to enter the race for fear the Telegraph would support him. Naturally, therefore, thg editorial which appeared in yesterday's Telegraph will cause rejoicing. The Telegraph reassures the different candidates in the following manner: “The Telegraph will take no hand in trying to arraign and embitter the friends of one candidate for governor against the friends of another. It will not tie itself to the personal fortunes of any man, nor any group of men who may or may not have combined for the sake of parcelling out the offices of the state among themselves. * * * This, in conection with sev- eral articles recently printed on this line in these columns, marks out the course the Telegraph will pursue.” Now, if the Telegraph will only stick to its promise, prospective candidates are in no danger of being de feated because of the company they keep. Naturaly enough, they all feared the support of a Republican paper, more than all else, and, indeed, the pre diction was freely made that the Tele graph would defeat any man whose cause it espoused. They all feel greatly reassured now, however, and we congrat ulate them upon their good fortune. Now, too, that the way has been made easier for Mr. dußignon, we shall expect to see his announcement forthcoming. It is even possible that the Hon. -Pope Brown may now feel free to re-enter the race. “God reigns and the Republican party still lives” is the wording of a telegram sent by Mark Hanna to McKinley when his election was assured. Yes, and we have never been able to reconcile the two facts. Then They Are Not Overtaxed. A few days ago The News published an editorial taking issue with the Atlanta Constitution relative to railroad taxation in Georgia. We clearly understood at iihe time that the ‘Constitution’s article was not only intended to show the growth of railroad property in Georgia, but also to make a comparison between railroad ‘tax ation and taxation of other classes of property—in fact, to show that the rail roads of Georgia were over-taxed, as com pared with other classes of property. So construing the Constitution’s edito rial, we presented facts and figures to prove that the railroads of Georgia :pay taxes on only one-fifth to one-tenth of their mortgaged value. Yesterday's (Constitution denies any in tention on the part of that paper to argue that the railroads of Georgia are overtaxed, hence admitting the truth of The News’ contention. The Constitution makes the statement that Editor Howell, who was then a member of the General Assembly, was instrumental in securing the passage of the Glenn bill, which has largely in creased the state’s revenue from railroad taxation. The original editorial on which we based our remarks a newt railroad taxation is not now available, else we would endeavor to demonstrate (how we came to do the Constitution the injustice of believing it fool enough to think that the railroads of this state are overtaxed. In lieu of such •an explanation, we cheerfully apologize to the Constitution and hasten to set it right. After ail, our only contention was that the railroads of Georgia are not overtaxed, and this we understand the Constitution to admit. (Does the Constitution also agree with us that the railroads are 'not now as sessed ‘half as much as they should be? An Americus special in today's Atlanta Constitution says: “Senator O. >B. Stevens, of the Eleventh district, is in the city today mingling- with friends. Mr. Stevens is squarely in the race for commissioner of agriculture, and no doubt will be the choice of this section of the state for that position. He has very strong working friends all 'over the state and goes into the race well fortified. (He is himeslf a practical farmer and fully posted a-s to the needs of the tillers of the soil. He stands for economy and lower taxation and no man deserves more this promotion than 'Mr. (Stevens, of Terrell, in the opinion of his friends in (Southwest Georgia.” The Sparta Ishmaelite says: “If an ef fort were made to re-enact any financial law, approved by Jackson, the iMaoon Tel egraph would be one of the first to oppose it. It is not surprising inow, however, that it should be trying to steal the Democratic livery of Andrew Jackson, in which to de ceive the people while serving the devil of Hessianism. But it doesn’t deceive In telligent people.” Says the Knoxville (Tenn.) Sentinel: “The New York Journal is now trying to overdo the Tammany business. Os course, it is well understood that Mr. Croker does not approve of Mr. Bryan. He 1-kes not the man with opinions or courage of con victions.” The Toledo Blade, a leading Republican paper, says: “Boss Croker and Senator Murphy have determined to control the councils of the Democrats of the nation as they controlled affairs in the recent New York municipal election.” The Sparta Ishmaellte declares itself in this manner: “Nobody can give a good reason why O. B. Stevens should not be made Commissioner of Agriculture, and the very name of tPihil Cook is suggestive of the Secretary of State.” And now it appears that Governor At kinson didn’t attend a Sunday bull fight after all. This is just like William Yates; always fooling the people. The Mississippi Legislature, it develops, has been illegally electing senators for some years past. A CALENDAR OF GOOD INTENTIONS. (Oliver Herford tn Life.) Said Father Tempus. I have a plan, I’m going to swear off on the first of JAN. But his resolution began to ebb. He was two days shy by the end of FEB. He lost his temper and went so far As to bawl and bluster all through MAR. He puffed and blew till he spoiled his shape So he took the water cure in AP. He took a shower bath every day. And was most disagreeable all through MAY. Then summer came and he changed his tune — Anv foot can be good in JUNE. But the strain was so great that by and by He was taken with a fever in JULY. He only just escaped the morgue, His temperature was so high in AUG. Never were resolutions kept So well as in convalescent SEPT. When he recovered the world was shocked. For he painted the country red in OCT. Then he howled and raged like a fiend in love, He was as full as could be of remorse in NOV. It’s plain, said he. this thing must cease. I’ll swear off again—at the end of DEC. Have your magazines rebcund by The Nawi’ bindery. CIRCUIT COURT. Will Be Held in Atlanta if the Bartlett Bill Passes. If the Bartlett bill passes congress it is mare than probable that Atlanta will have the United States circuit court of appeals ! for at least half the time. The bill which is now before congress provides tor a new United States circuit court, judge in every circuit. There is no objection to the measure and it will most likely pass. The purpose of cbe measure ; is to equalize the number of circuit judges, says the Constitution. There are nine circuits in the United i States. The second, seventh and eighth I have three judges each, but the others ! have but twu judges. Tnis district has j but two judges—Don A. Pardee and A. P. I McCormick. Judge Newman, of the United ■ States district court, has been serving as | a circuit judge to make out the full ' bench of three judges. In other circuits I a district judge has been used to con pie to ; the full bench. Now it is proposed to have three circuit judges in every circuit and not take the district judges from their work to serve on the appellate court bench. This cir- ‘ cult is composed of Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas. | There is considerable speculation as to ’ who will get the place of circuit judge af ter it is created. Col. John T. Glenn and Judge W. R. Hammond have both been mentioned for the judgeship, and it is said that both will be in the race. Since their names were first announced several others have entered the field. Mr. William A. Vaughn, United States attorney at Bir mingham, and ex-Congressman Horace Bisbee, of Jacksonville, will both try for the place, so it is said. The Georgians have by far the best show for a success. Texas and Louisiana al ready have representatives on the circuit bench and t!he president will naturally select some man from this section to take the new judgeship. When the three judges get to work it is thought that Atlanta will have the cir cuit court every other year. The court may be held here, anyway, df Judge New man continues on the circuit bench for any length of time. WITHOUT THE COW. Butter and Cheese Can be Easily Made, Says a Scientist. Baltimore, Jan. 15.—Willard G. Day is said to have discovered away to make butter and cheese without the aid of a cow. Honey has been made without the co-operation of the bee, and that fact caused Mr. Day to think, with the above result. He has also produced an electric light radiation strong enough to kill any mi crobe that ever spread itself. His product will never spoil on this account, because the little germs, which feed on the same vegetables as the cow does, and which causes milk and butter to lose their mer cantile value, through the agency of time, will be destroyed in the process. The scientist started out with the knowl edge that the kind of food on which the cow is fed and the kind of microbe nour ished at the roots of this food produce the different traits in various frauds of but ter. He began his experiments by ex tracting and then assembling artificially the same products which are brought about by nature. He produced from the vegetables oils which differed but slightly from those found in the animal kingdom, and from that point proceeded to give the vegeta ble oil the same characteristics found in the animal oil —that is, he made oils out of grass. That is where the electricity comes in. Day discovered that animal and vegetable carbohydrates strongly resemble one an other and the differences existing in the oils are due to the nitrogenous sheaths which inclose the globules of oil. This sheath gives to the various animal oils their characteristic odors. If the oils could be separated from the sheath without crushing the latter the odor would be absent. In ordinary ex traction, by heat or by hydraulic pressure, the nitrogenous characteristics of the globule sheath are imparted to the oil and it is impossible to separate them after wards. Day discovered that by the use of the radiant energy of an electric light of high potentiality these sheaths could be made to shrivel up while the oil which they con tained could then be extracted by slight pressure, free from the characteristics of the animal or plant from which they are derived. COMMON SENSE CURE. PYRAMID PILE CURE CURES PILES PERMANENTLY BY CURING THE CAUSE. Remarkable Remedy Which is Bringing Comfort to Thousands of Sufferers. 'Probably half the people who see this article suffer from piles. It is one of the commonest diseases and one of the most obstinate.

Rowe was charged with vagrancy. He was sick and could not fill an en gagement. He applied for aid to the po •lice as a last resort.
