MAJ. BACON ’
INTERVIEWED/
What He Has to Say About
the Outlook for the Dem
ocratic Party.
PROSPECTS NEVER BETTER,
He Predicts An Overwhelming Ma
jority at the Next Session of
Congress.
Senator A. O. Bacon, in a Washington
interview xays that the Democratic out
look is better than it haa been tor ten
y<ars past in spite of the fact that the
party hat* within that time elected a pres
ident. Senator Bacon made this statement
in response to a question I put to him as
to what were his views of the political sit
uation at the beginning of this year.
"For the first time since Cleveland’s first
election dotw the party present practically
a solid front here in congress. 1 take it
tnai. congress pretty closely represents the
the country. Even as early as 1881 there
appeared a slight rift in the party. Cer
tain leaders began to pull in opposite di
rections from the majority of Democrats.
This rift gradually widened until it finally
culminated in 1896, when a portion of the
party cut itself off from the main body and
styled itself the National Democracy. The
regular Democrats, in spite of this, polled
more votes )a«t year than they had over
polled before in the history of the party.
Today we find them an absolute unit in
their organization and in their confession
of party fealty. For the first time in three
years the Democrats of the house vote as
one man on all party questions. In the
senate the Democratic party presents a
solid phalanx against the encroachments
of corporate power and the suppression
of Indivdual liberty. There arc still Dem
ocrats in the senate who style themselves
gold Democrats, but they no longer r< pre
sent the Democratic party on the money
issue. What we have lost in these we
have more than made up by Republicans
who have left their party on this ques
tion.
DEMOCRATIC ORG \NIZATION.
"The Democratic organization is made
up of tnen who stand squarely on the Dem
ocratic platform as announced at Chicago.
Tlte party today is in batter and healthier
condition than ilt has been since 1886. It Is
far stronger titan it was last year and its
record has been one of continued growth
In the conviction of Democratic princi
ples.
“There is no longer room for question
as to the position and creed of the Demo
cratic party on the coinage question.
Whatever question there may have been
has now been fully and finally settled. The
party stands for true bimetallism, which
can only be found in the free coinage of
both gold and silver upon absolutely equal
terms. Those Democrats who have here
tofore entertained different personal views
are rapidly conceding their Individual
opinions, and are giving in their unquali
fied alliance, not only to the organlzatiion,
but to the defflnitely announced principles
of the party on the coinage question.
Those who are not willing to make this
concession will naturally drift into the .Re
publican party, where in their new affilia
tion they must not only stand for trusts,
monopolies. high protective tariff but the
political companionship of the white and
negro races, ■ . 1 '* ■*
"The country today looks to the Demo
cratic party with more faith 'than it lias
done In recent years. The campaign last
year purged the parly of those who would
let,,’! it under the influences of the money
power In the country. I believe that the
gold Democrats whd acted and voted with
the Republicans are'het.rtily «or>y Ct their
misdoings and that three-fourths of them
have returned to us. There has been no
decrease among those who .aine over to
the Democratic party in ISM. Those who
were doubtful last year as to the advisa
bility of our platform have, through the
action of this administration, been 'forced
to acknowledge the righteousness of our
cause and the correctness of the views put
together in Chicago.
None of the promises made by the 'Re
publican party have been fulfilled. All of
Our predictions regarding prosperity prom
ised as thf result o's Republican rule have
been verified. The administration has
done nothing since it has been in power
but apologize for the delay Os prosperity
and to beg the people to be patient Hitler
existing evils.
CURRENCY R.EFORM ABANDONED.
“Currency reform which was made the
Republican shiboleth in the campaign, has
practically been abandoned and we find
the party in power more divided that the
Democrats were at the time of the repeal
of the purchasing clause of the Sherman
aot. Nearly six months have passed since
the new tariff was enacted, and yet we see
deficits in our government revenues occur
ring as regularly as the reports roll
around. There has been some slight im
provement in the West, owing to the in
creases! advance in the price of wheat.
But the starving people of India and of
other countries, and the shortage of crops
elsewhere are responsible for this, and not
the Dingley ta-riff law. Even Speaker Reed
was forced to cry out against the claims
of partisans that wheat had been advanc
ed ott account of the tariff. As near as I
can remember.he said in one of his articles
that no tnan with an atom of love
for his fellow man. would ever be willing
to see wheat advance to a dollar accom
panied by the terrible destruction of hu
man life which has been the cause of it.
Low price* for products and idle labor still
prevail. Wages have been reduced in the
northeast, the very section es the country
which clamors loudest for a protective
tariff bill. Strikes have been ensued, and
today the battle between labor and capital
is as fierce along the rock-bound coast of
New England as it was when we were liv
ing under a lower tariff and the election of
McKinley seemed doubtful.
WOLCOTT AND GAGE.
"Here in the senate we have just been
presented with a spectacle of a faithful
follower of McKinley arraigning the sec
retary of the treasury and scoffing at his
views. We find president McKinley in 'the
attitude of Ix»rd Ullin's daughter, 'One
arm stretched for aid and the other around
her lover.” save that in this ease we don’t
know whether Secretary Gage or Senator
Wolcott is the lover. Doubtless he would
toe happy if either of them were away.
"At the expense of a hundred thousand
dollars a commission was sent abroad to
promote bimetallism. Before that com
mission made its report the secretary of
the treasury, with the apparent endorse
ment of the president, has a bill intro
duced to commit us more securely to the
gold standard and with a provision to re
tire our green backs. Then came the
charge that Mr. Gage was embarrassing
the president. The generally accepted
opinion is that the former offered to re
sign but that the resignation was rejected.
This, under ordinary circumstances, would
mean that the president heartily approves
of his secretary. But the faint hope is
still held out to the bimetallists that the
president stands with them. All of this
forces me to believe that the international
feature of the St. Louis currency plank
was put in with a view of holding silver
Republican votes and to tempt D<mocrats
with international bimetallic views to vote
for McKinley.
"So we find the rift in the Republican
party. It is one that will widen until
every bimetallist will be forced to either
take his stand on the Chicago platform
or to wave the single gold colors of Sec
retary Gage. The inconsistency and bad
faith with which the bimetallist* of the
Republican party have been treated will
force hundreds of Thousands of them to
leave the regular organization and follow I
Senator Teller and Representative Towne.
REPUBLICANS DIVIDED.
"It has not been quite a year since the
Republicans were given all the power they
asked, the house, the senate and the exec- !
utive. We find them at this time divided,
fretful and with little hope. On the other
hand the Democratic party is united, full
of hope, confidence and enthusiasm. It is
in splendid condition for a struggle, and
its rejuvinated limbs long for the race.
"In Che meantime the great floating vote
is disappointed, dissatisfied, if not disgus
ted. I believe this year will see the De
mocracy triumphant in the house, fore
shadowing a greater victory in the presi
dential year of 1900.”
CATARRH OF THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant Simple, But Safe Effectual Cure
for it.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to incurable.
The usual symptoms are a full or bloat
ing sensation after eating, accompanied
some times with sour or watery risings, a
formation of gasses, causing pressure on
the heart and lungs and difficult breath
ing; headache, fickle appetite, nervous
ness and a general played out, languid
feeling.
There Is often a foul taste In the mouth,
I coated tongue, and if the interior of the
stomach could be seen it would show a
. slimy, inflamed condition.
The cure for this common and obstinate
I trouble is found in a treatment which
, causes the food to be readily, thoroughly
i digested before it has time to ferment and
■ irritate the delicate mucouss surfaces of
the stomach.
To secure a prompt and healthy diges
tion is the one necessary thing to do, and
when normal digestion is secured the ca
tarrhal condition will have disappeared.
According to Dr. Harlanson the safest
I and best treatment is to use after each
; meal a tablet composed of Diastaste, Asep
tic Pepsin, a little Nux, Golden Seal and
fruit acids.
These tablets can now be found at all
drug stores under the name of S mart’s
Dyspepsia Tablets, and, not being a atent
medicine, can be used with perfect safety
and assurance that healthy appetite and
through digestion will follow their regu
lar use after meals.
Mr. N. J. Booher, 2710 Dearborn street,
Chicago, 111., writes: "Catarrh is a local
condition resulting from a neglected cold
in the head, whereby the lining membrane
of the nose becomes inflamed and the poi
sonous discharge therefrom, passing back
ward into the tliroat, reaches the stomach,
thus producing catarrh of the stomach.
Medical authorities prescribed for me
three years for catarrh of the stomach
without cure, but today I am the happiest
of men after using only one box of Stuart’s
Dyspepsia Tablets. I cannot find, appro
priate words to express my good feeling.
Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets Is the safest
preparation as well as the simplest and
morft convenient remedy for any form of
indigestion, catarrh of stomach, bilious
ness, sour stomach, heartburn and bloat
ing after meals.
Send for little book, mailed free, on
stomach troubles, by addressing Stuart
Co.. Marshall, Mich. The tablets can be
found at a drug store.
COMMISSION

The Georgia Commission on the Omaha
convention will meet in Macon tomorrow.
The members of the conventin will meet
in the Chamber of Commerce, and during
their stay in the city will be made very
welcome by those who are interested in

Mr. Janies Jones, of the drug firm of

cians at Cowden and Pana could do noth
ing for her| It seemed to develop into

good work. Try it. Free trial bottles at

HOTELS IN THE AIR.
The Talk of the Enlargement of the La
nier Is all Bosh.
The new hotel question seems to have
stirred up in men interested in hotel prop
erty the desire to prevaricate and pile
bluff upon bluff until the general public
lives in an atmosphere of luxurious mod
ern tourist hotels, which, after all, are
only castles in the air.
The latest is the announcement that the
Hotel Lanier is to be enlarged and exten
ded up to the Telegraph corner and that
the Johston estate, which owns the prop
erty from the Hotel Lanier up to the cor
ner. has agreed to take $75,000 for the
property.
The building, with the ground, furnish
ings. etc., will cost about $150,000, which
the manager of the Hotel Lanier is quoted
as saying Mr. Georgf Plant is ready to
furnish, but the trouble about it is that
Mr. Plant says that he has never had any
such idea and no one can be found who
has. except some individual with a strong
imagination, who desires to ward off the
inevitable which must follow the building
of a modern hotel upon any site other than
that now occupied by the Hotel Lanier.
There is absolutely nothing in the talk
of the enlargement of the Hotel Lanier,
and it remains to be seen whether there is
anything in the hotel talk anyway.

HANGED A MAN FOR A JOKE.
Funmakers Wanted to Scare a Woman
and Did It.
Danbury, Conn., Jan. 24. —A practical
joke that nearly cost a life was perpetrat
ed on Al Higson. a few miles from this
city.
Higson was working for Fred West.
Three men came into the yard and sug
gested that It would be be a good joke
to hang Higson to a tree and scare Mrs.
West when she should come out of the
house.
Higson thought it would be a good joke,
too, and allowed the men to bang him.
Then they called Mrs. West out and ran
away. Mrs. West, instead of cutting him
down, fainted. In a few minutes Mr. West
came home and found the man hanging to
a tree and his wife unconscious in the
yard. He cut the man down and then re
suscitated his wife. He found it more
difficult to bring Higson to consciousness,
but succeede after some time.

GRUESOMESCHOOL
Movement for a Southern
School of Embalming
Has Been Started
COMBINED WITH SANITATION.
It Will Be Invaluable as an Adjunct
to the Protection of the Smaller
Towns.
A movement is on foot and will probably
be started in this city to establish a South
ern school of embalming.
Some of rhe leading undertakers in the
country are interested and there is no
doubt that the movement will be started.
A general outline of the plan is to elect
the proper person as an instructor in mod
ern embalming, who, with a physician of
recognized standing, will visit the differ
ent cities and towns in the south for the
purpose of lecturing, and where feasible,
giving practical demonstrationss of the art
of embalming, coupled with the science of
sanitation, which has become a regular ad
junct of the embalmer’s work.
And this subject of sanitation being in
cluded the lectures of the Southern em
balming school will be thrown open to
boards of.health and city officials. In this
case the .work of the school will be in
valuable a4 affording opportunity for
everyone to become better acquainted with
the methods of sanitation to be employed
in the case of epidemics.
An effort will be made to secure a state
board of embalming and sanitation in all
the Southern states. Under this plan only
those who have attended the course of lec
tures of the Southern School of Embalm
ing, and who pass a satisfactory exami
nation before the state board will be al
lowed to embalm in any of the Southern
states.
The movement is considered timely be
cause of the general demand for a more
complete knowledge of the business, and
especially of the subject of sanitation on
the part of the undertakers as affording
greater public safety in the case of infec
tious diseases.
The modern embalmer is an expert on
these subjects and his services and his
work in most of the Southern cities will
be invaluable, while the state board will
■afford protection for the experts against
quacks.
MARION_MANOLA
Resigned Because Her Man
ager Secured Her Picture
In Tights By a Trick.
The engagement of Jack Mason and
Marion Manola in “Friend Fritz” at the
Academy of Music tonight is sure to bring
out a big house.
This is as it should be. The comedy
is one of the best that was ever staged.
It has been received everywhere with en
thusiasm and is pronounced a credit to the
American stage.
Jack Mason and his wife Marion Manola
make a combination hard to beat and in
this production they are at their best.
Theater goers should be out in large
numbers tonight and the attraction should
receive the support it deserves.
Macon always patronizes a good attrac
tion and they will reflect credit upon their
own good judgment by seeing tonight’s
performance.
Apropos of the announcement of the en
gagement of Miss Adelaide Mason to
Charles Dana Burrows, a nephew of
Thomas B. Reed, the following almost for
gotten story aliout her mother, Marion
Manola, will be read with interest;
Bight years ago ’»ai ion Manola was
singing at the Casine New York, and was
the reigning queen of otnic opera. De-
Wolf Hopper was the leading comedian of
the Casino forces at that time.
Hopper and Miss Manola were such
great favorites that a syndicate of capi
talists, at the head of which was William
Steinway, the piano manufacturer, was
formed to back a new comic opera organ
ization, with DeWolf Hoper as the star
and Miss Manola as his prima donna, Ac
cording the DeWolf Hopper Opera Bouffe
Company was orgainzed. The first pro
duction made by the new organization was
entitled “Castles in the Air,” and it was
given at the Broadway theater, where it
scored a big hit.
The management of the company de
sired Miss Manola to have her photograph
taken in costume, consisting of tights,
and she refused. Repeated, but unavail
ing, efforts were made to get the photo
graph, which was wanted for advertising
purposes.
Finally the manager hit upon a bright
idea. He had a flash-light photograph of
the stage taken during the performance,
while Miss Manola was on the stage.
By this little trick the manager secured
his photograph, but lost the services of
his prima donna, as Miss Manola Imme
diately resigned her place.
The reason Miss Manola gave for not
wishing her phatograph taken was that
she had a daughter, then about 8 years
old, attending school in a convent, and
she did not wish her daughter, she said,
to blush at the sight of her mother’s pic
ture in tights, when she had grown up,

MACON NEWS TUESDAY EVENING, JANUARY aj 1898.
A WILD STORY.
It is Said That Murderer Holmes Still
Lives.
Chicago, HL, Jan. 24. —The Inter Ocean
has this remarkable story:
“H. H. Holmes was never hanged in
Philadelphia, May 7, 1896, as the newspa
pers reported, and as the people who wit
nessed the alleged execution believed. On
the contrary, as he always declared he
would do, he has cheated the gallows, and
is today alive and well, growing coffee at
San Parinarimbo, Paraguay, South Amer
ica.”
This is the extraordinary statement
I made by Herbert Lattimer, a resident of’
I Englewood, and a man who, having been
intimately acquainted with Holmes, and a
frequent visiter at the “castle," was at
one time reported in the long list of tihe
multi-murderer’s alleged victims.
The story of Holmes’ alleged escape
from death, as LattSmer tells it, is as sen
sational as any of the events connected
with the career of this extraordinary crim
inal.
According to the story, a body strongly
resembling that of Holmes in height,
weight and general appearance, was
smuggled into the jail at Philadelphia
and placed under the scaffold, later being
substituted on the rope as the real living
Holmes.
Within two hours of the hanging an un
dertaker's wagon, containing a casket,
was supposed to contain rhe body’ of
Holmes Instead, it is alleged, it con
tained Holmes living. The horse was lash
ed into a run, and quick time was made to
Mount Morriah Cemetery, where the cas
ket, instead of being entombed, was de
posited in a vault.
That night, it is alleged that cadaver
was smuggled out of the prison and taken
to .the cemetery, where it was placed in a
casket, from which the living Holmes had
been released some hours previously. Be
fore midnight Holmes, his face cleanly
shaven and in new anl elegant clothing,
was calmly seated in a New York hotel
reading of his supposed execution. A few
days later, under an assumed name, he
was on his wa to Paraguay.
It is further alleged that, after having
made his arrangements to reside perma
nently in South America, he sent to the
United States for at least one, and per
haps two of his alleged victims, through
whose disappearance he had profited, and
that he is now living with them.
