The Teller Resolution.
The senate will take up the Teller reso
lution this week, and the outlook is that
an end will be put to all efforts at mone
tary reform, as dictated by the goldbug
contingent.
The Teller resolution demands that nat
ional bonds be paid either in gold or sil
ver.
As the resolution passed the Senate
Finance Committee by a vote of 8 to 5
this attitude of the committee precludes
any action looking to revision of the cur
rency system upon lines laid out by Secre
tary Gage and others who are Inimical to
the interests of silver and seek to commit
the country to gold monometallism abtso- •
lately.
The Toller resolution is entirely con
servatlve and reasonable; nevertheless it
is a groat victory for silver, inasmuch as
it puts an end to the dishonest contention
that government lx>nds are payable only
In gold. The friends of silver rightly hold
that, not one bond is payable directly or
indirectly in gold; redemption Is expressly
allowed in coin, gold or silver at. the op
tion of the government, and the Teller
resolution merely emphasizes the opinion
of the Senate Finance Committee that no
subterfuges to change the meaning of coin
redemption will bo endorsed by it.
The Senate lim.s ngretd to vote on the
resolution next. Thursday. Senator Turpie
•peaks on It. today, and it is expected that
speeches for It will be made by Senators
Teller, Pettigrew, White and others, and
that there also will be some addresses in
opposition. Senator Nelson has offered
an amendment declaring for the mainte
nance of the parity of the two metals, but
the silver men, considering th.s hostile to
their purposes, will not accept It. They
stay they will insist upon a vote upon the
as ft stands.
Tobe Stevens is all right. He plowed
when a boy, and he gets up soon o’ morn
ings, and loves to hear the familiar toot of
a dinner horn to this day, says the Albany
Herald. It really begins to look like this
is going to be a plowboy campaign. The
candidate who has never pulled the bell
line over.a mule had better take a few
lessons at once.
The Turbin Wheel and Dynamo.
An article recently published in the
Philadelphia Record is of direct interest
to 'Macon. The Record calls attention to
the growing use of the waterfess of this
country for the generation of power, and
says that the modern turbine wheel and
the electric dynamo have created a new
force within the last few years. Formerly
the water falls were only utilized by mills
and factories that could bo located on the
banks of the streams, and throughout the
United States, power to the amount of
only a few thousand horses was In use.
Today more than one hundred thousand
horsepower Is developed by the waterfalls
of this country and additions are being
constantly made, and factories are located,
in many oases, miles from the falls. The
old fashioned water wheel, capable of
■working under a head of twenty-five or
thirty feet at most, has given way to the
turbine, which operates under a vertical
fall of water as great as one thousand
feet.
This forcibly sugests the great advan
tage Macon has over other citit's as a
manufeicturing center If she would only
utilize it. With the Ocmulgee river to
aid her, Macon can develop enough power
to drive all the wheels and spindl ha*

'tan? other cities go a hundred miles or
j for their electric power, and. even
then, find it the cheapest power to be had.
Macon has abundant power right at her
doors, and yet alows it to run by her day’
after day. unutilized except for drinking
purposes.
The Ocmulgee river, in connection with
the turbine and dynamo, is an undevel
oped Klondike for the investor who has
the courage to develop it. And it promises
a corresponding benefit to the city of
Macon as a whole, once it has been turned
to account.
The Sparta Ishmaelite says: “The Ma
con Telegraph is giving Democrats grounds
for the hope that it will be openly at war
with them before the end of the year.—
There isn t a more hopeful indication than
that in Georgia politics.”
Not Good Enough.
So ft has been settled that Lyons is not
to have the Augusta postoffice. Not be
cause President McKinley has any regard
for common decency in the matter, nor
because he considers the sentiments and
rights of Augusta people. But because
the Augusta postmastership Is not good
enough for Lyons.
The president is quoted as saying that
he has always considered Lyons' too good
for the Augusta postmastership, and he is
going to do better by him than. Lyons
hoped for. He is not only going to give
him a position worthy of his talents, but
be is also going to allow him to name the
/ Augusta appointee.
And the President, at the request of
certain Georgia white men. is also going
to appoint the negro Deveaux collector at
Savannah. This is. Jndded. a sublime-spec
tacle for those deluded Georgians who
voted for McKinley believing that they
could thereby create a white man’s Repub
lican party in the South. They have lived
.to learn that the Republican party is wed
ded to the negro; actually prefers him to
the Southern white man. and invariablv
takes care of him before the claims of
white Republicans are considered.

Yellow Fever Germ.
If telegraphic reports which come from
New Orleans are to he believed, Dr. Paul
Archinard. bacteriologist of the Louisiana
! State Board of Health, and his assistants
have made a most important discovery
with reference to yellow fever.
It is asserted that they have met with
complete success in their search for the
i yellow fever germs, and they now predict
, that persons may be made Immune against
yellow fever by giving them a mild attack
i of the disease as in smallpox vaccinating
I or allow of the serum treatment of the
malady after it has been discovered in a
l patient by an examination of their blood,
as has been done in the case of diphtheria
I and as proposed by Dr. SanarellL
Dr. Archinard’s full report will not be
i published until February 21st, but New
• Orleans physicians are disposed to take the
I view that It will prove to be one of the
greatest value and will make the South
! able to protect itself fully against yeliow
i fever In the future.
The investigations were conducted under
the auspices of the state board of health
by Dr. Paul Archinard, Dr. R. S. Wood
son, of the United States army, and Dr.
John Archinard, demonstrator of anatomy
in Tulane University. At first little suc
cess was met with, but the use of the
agglutinative test, discovered by Dr. Vidal,
of Paris, in typhoid fever, enabled the
i bacteriologists Xo discover the yellow fe
| ver germ in 87 per cent of the cases sub
mitted to them, whereas Sanarelli, the dis
coverer of the germ, found it in only for
ty-seven per cent of the cases, and all
previous experiments in this country have
completedy failed.
The experiments demonstrate the fact
that the bacteriological diagnosis of yel
; low fever can be depende upon with almost
complete certainty to detrmine the pres
ence or absence of the disease. This, it is
believed, wil be of untold benefit in fight
ing yellow fever, as it will neable physi
cians to discover the disease in its first
stages, hitherto difficulty and will prevent
the confusion hitherto existing—the differ
ence of opinion existing among the doctors
as to the disease, so frequent last summer.
It will be observed that those newspa
pers which desire to oppose Hon. Allen D.
Candler for governor continue to cry
"wait.' Rut the Candler boom won’t wait.
The people have derided on Candler, and
he is already as good as elected.
Elections of Judges and Solicitors.
The Newnan Henaid and Advertiser re
produces The News’ editorial objecting to
the election of judges and solicitors by
the people and says:
"The passage of a bill by the Legisla
ture, by a practical unanimous vote, pro
viding for the election of judges and soli
citors by the people, indicated that the
issue was a popular one, and would be
overwhelmingly indorse when submitted
for ratification at the state election in Oc
tober. Objections to the plan have al
ready been raised, however, and it looks
now as if there might be an organized
fight upon the measure. Opposition is
based upon the theory that a judge or
solicitor who is forced to enter a scramble
for election Incurs obligations of a politi
cal and personal nature that will unfit
him for the faithful and impartial dis
charge of the duties of his office. Politi
cal feuds are also created, and animosities
aroused, that will be more than likely to
have a prejudicial influence upon the
officers of the courts, decreasing popular
.respect for these officials and seriously in
terfering with the administration of jus
tice. A candid exponent of this View is the
Macon News.”
When Jack and Manola (Mason last ap
peared in Macon they did not receive that
flattering reception to which they are
clearly entitled. This was because a great
many people did not fully appreciate the
importance of the engagement of these
famous artists. It is not likely, however,
that so many Macon people will deny
themselves such a pleasure again, and the
probability is that the Masons will be
given an ovation. It is a privilege to be
.entertained by such talented people as
Jack and Manola Mason. The play,
"Friend Fritz” in which they are starring,
is decidedly one of the most eharming
ever put. on the American stage, and, by
every line of reasoning, tomorrow night's
attraction at the Academy of Music is en
titled to a packed house.
The Savannah News thinks that Speaker
Jenkins should have revised his remarks
on Thursday before giving them out. for
publication. “I have lived in the white
light that beats about a throne for a good
many years now’,” he is quoted as having
said. The figure of speech is a good one
under certain circumstances, but it may
be doubted that it is the very best ex
pression Mr. Jenkins could have employed,
says the News. Some persons may be so
unkind as to suggest that any’ man who
has “for a good many’ years” occupied a
position so elevated as a “throne,” ought
to be satisfied to let somebody else have
the governorship.
Here is encouragement for Macon men.
The Commercial-Appeal says the Memphis
theaters are now almost entirely cured of
the high hat evil. As it is no longer con
sidered good form or good breeding to
wear an obstructionist hat in places of
amusement, the ladies now with one ac
cord remove their hats as soon as the play
begins.
The Sparta Ishmaelite says: The Times-
Recorder warns our old friend Allen Cand
ler, against incurring the fatal friendship
of the Atlanta Journal. It is very dan
gerous; but it will probably bo counterac
ted by the opposition of the Macon Tele
' graph.”

LONE TRAVELER FROM ITALY.
Victor Mackenzie is probably the young
est cabin passenger who ever crossed the
Atlantic alone. He arrived at New York
two days ago on the Augusta Victoria
from Genoa, and comes to be reared an
American citizen.
His father, Andrew Mackenzie, It Is
said, was a captain in the Peruvian army,
now lives in Genoa and whose wife, whom
he married less than three years ago. died
lately, leaving one child. Victor, now 16
months old.
Now Victor’s father is an American, and
he wanted his boy brought up an Amer
ican. The child's grandmother, who lives
somewhere in Harlem, was anxious to
care for the youngster, and the father de
cided to send him to her.
Captain Mackenzie could not come with
his son, so he engaged a cabin for the
youngster and left him to the special care
of the first officer of the Augusta Victoria,
and to Mrs. Verends, the stewardess.
Vistor proved a good saidor. The voyage
for the most part was made pleasant by
fine weather. All of the passengers learn
ed the story of the handsome baby who
toddled about the decks and saloons, and
every woman aboard took part in caring
for him.
When the vessel arrived at her pier in
Hoboken two women, sent by his grand
mother, took Victor away. ,

STRDNGJRONT
Shown By the Phillipine In
surgents Are Strong
er Than Ever Before.
FAST GAINING RECRUITS,
Battle of Importance Appears Immi
nent-War Has Gone Too Far
for Compromise,
Manilla, Phillipine Islands, Jan. 22. —The
insurgents present a stronger front today
than at any time since the Spanish yellow
and red was trampled in the mire at Ca
vito Province, August 24th, 1806. They
are strongly intrenched in Bulacan and
other provinces immediately to the north
ward of 'Manilla. Occasionally they come
forth from their mountain fastnesses and
attack and generally rout a detachment of
imperial troops.
The government has spent J 20.000.000
and 9,000 Spanish -soldiers—recruits from
Spain and native volunteers are dead; and
yet the insurgents are so close to the cap
ital that the guns on the more formidable
of the ‘Phillipine Squadron will almost
reach them.
The leaders are now more confident of
victory than at any time. They have bet
ter organization, more funds at their dis
posal, and are slowly but surely adding to
their arms.
The gfeat majority of the people of the
capital city are in sympathy with the in
surgents, and a great many of them are
regularly contributing munitons of war.
ACHING FOR A FIGHT.
The Insurgent commander-in-chief is
really "aching” for a good “go” with the
Spaniards, and there is every reason to be
lieve 'there will be an interesting time
within a month or so. The government is
putting forth herculean efforts to raise ten
to fifteen additional regiments of volun
teers among the natives, and if they are
successful, General Riverra will undoubt- i
edly order an attack on the main body of
insurgents.
These are in Bulacan province, about
fifty miles from the captain general’s pal
ace. The captain general has evidently
given up all hope of accomplishing any
thing great with raw and inexperienced
recruits from the mother country. Os the
28,000 volunteers sent from Spain since the
beginning of the revolt, 4,000 have died
from some disease peculiar to these is
lands. combined with bad food and miser
able treatment generally. Besides all this,
about 7,000, or just 25 per cent, have been
sent back to Spain, as incapable of serv
ing in the Philliplnes.
VOLUNTEERS DESERTING.
General Riverra is much pleased with
his latest appeal for native volunteers. A
good many well informed Spaniards say
that the volunteering hw, nee.n too exten
sive to be genuine, and they belive that it
is simply an ingenius way of supplying the
insurgents with arms. There have been
desertions by native volunteers to the
number of 4,000 since the trouble started.
The very latest report is that Genera*
Riverra sent word to the insurgents that
if any of them would lay down their arms
and pay $400,000 into the imperial treas
ury their "sins” would be forgiven. Six
months ago the government could have af
fected a compromise, but it Is now too late.
The people certainly have it in their minds
to establish a free state, and to have per
haps some western nation other -than Spain
exercise a protectorate.

The
of Life
Cancer strikes at the very roots of
life. It is beyond all human power
to foresee its coming. In the begin
ning it is just a speck or small lump
or pimple. That is the time to stop
it. Don’t delay an instant. Every
pimple or mole is a possible Cancer.
In a year it may be eating your life
away. For
Cancer
Take Swiff 's Specific. It is the
only known cure for this deadly dis
ease. It will free the system of the
poisons that cause Cancer and other
morbid growths. Even after Cancer
has a deep foothold, it will cure, but
it takes longer. It is a medicine
that goes right down to the very’
roots of life in the blood, and forces
out every vestige of impurity. It
goes to the seat of the most obstin
ate cases, which are beyond the
reach of other blood remedies.
No sufferer who cares for life can
afford to lose time with surgical
operations or torturing plasters, as
such treatment cannot reach the
blood. Swift's Speci£c is the
only’ Real Cancer Cure on the face
of the earth.

SOUGHT OLD GOLD.
Now These Texans Seek a Missing Partner
and Their Treasures.
Dalias. Tex., Jan. 22 —Four Dallas men
; who have been digging for $45,000 of
I buried gold in Oak Lawn, a suburb, for
j the last four weeks, are looking for Or.
| R. J. Willmarth, who, they say, has fled
! with that amount o< treasure.
They helped Dr. Willmarth buy a lot
for SI,OOO when he showed them evidence
that the gold had been buried there long
ago by a Spaniard. Willmarth arranged
with his associates to divide equally what
should be found.
The men say Dr. Willmarth stood guard
on last Friday night. The next morning
a large fiat stone was found removed in
the diggings, and a hole was
found near it. The men have not been
ahle to find Dr. Willmarth since, and they
think he has gone away with the treasure.
Dr. Willmarth first came to Dallas four

The roof painting done for me by Mr.
Harvey English has been and still is one
of the most satisfactory pieces of work
which I ever had done. He stopped all
leaks in a large tin roof, and there were a
great many. His whole transaction was
fair, business-like and satisfactory. Re
spectfully, A- w Muse.
Albany, Ga., Jan. 28, 1897.
Mr. Harvey English has covered the roof
of the engine room of the Albany Water
works with his roof paint, and I am well
satisfied with the work. He has also done
some work for me personally, two years
ago, which has proved satisfactory

it could not bo fixed except with a new
roof. Since Mr. English painted the roof
it has not leaked any. He has painted roofs
for J. W. Hopson, John Tillman, Clayton
Groover and others. He does the best work
I have ever seen done on tin roofs. He is
an honest and upright man, who would not
deceive you for your money.

Having had Mr. Harvey English to paint
several roofs with his incomparable prep
aration for stopping leaks, it affords me
pleasure to bear testimony to his honest
workmanship and to the fact that “Eng

Mr. Harvey English has stopped a very

Paint. I recommend his paint to any one
who is troubled with leaky roofs.

Mr. English has done some work for us
that required the best of paints and skill
as a workman. Without soldering he has
made a very leaky roof dry and tight. It
gives us pleasure to recommend him.
