Candlerand Harmony.
The enthusiasm which the suggestion of
a Candler Club has aroused in -Macon is
conclusive* evdtnee of the fact that old
Bibb is golag to give Allen D. Candler a
rousing majori'y. Not only is he already
assured of her vole in the state conven
tion, but the Indications are that Bibb will
be the banni r IX-mocratic county this
year. There is practically no dissension in
local party ranks. The name of Candler
is itself suggestive of harmony and good
spirit and all classes of Bibb democrats
seem eager to accept him as governor.
Never before has it ibeen possible to so
easily harmonize the different factions in
this county. So intense has the feeling
been at times heretofore that some have
even shown a disposition to ignore party
lines, and many have refused to accept
the party nominees.
But they all recognize in Allen D.
Candler a man who is without an objec
tionable quality, and almost unanimuosly
the people of Bibb county are for him.
The outlook is that this sentiment will
find expression in the organization of a
Candler Club tonight. Already several
hundred names have been enrolled, and
tonight’s meeting will, in all probability,
be a large and enthusiastic one.
Every Democrat who favors the nomi
nation of Allen I). Candler should be pres
ent at the court house tonight. Let’s make
it a rousing meeting, and at the outset
snow under any opposition that may be
attempted.
lUn ember the hour, 8 o’clock—at the
court house.
The declaration of Senator Hoar upon
the floor of the Senate, that- the financial
question would be the issue in the cam
paign of 1 900. was pleasing news to the
Democratic senators. They have believed
for some time that, the liepublicans would
endeavor to trump up some other so
called issue, to draw’ the minds of t.he
voters away from the issue of greatest
importance to the people. Coming from a
man of his standing in the party, the
announcement may be considered author
itative.
Progress of Combination.
Not satisfied with their already enorm
ous railroad holding the Vanderbilts are
reaching oue for more mileage and the
combination goes on apace. It is said that
J. Pierpont Morgan is the controlling
spirit in combinations of capital, owning
more than fiftey thousand miles of roads,
which is more than one-fourth of the
total mileage of the United States.
Other gigantic corporations are gather
ing other roads and it. will be but a few
years until the dominant, transportation
companies in the United States can be
counted on the fingers of the hand. What
is true of the railroads is true of every
line of business. It is an age of combina
tion and it Is the natural result of the
industrial conditions that obtain in this
conntry.—Ohattannoga News.
And still the work of monopoly goes on,
undisturbed by federal or state laws, al
though struts legislatures have repeatedly
attempted to put an end to this iniquitous
business.
Now. however, the ' deral government
s to be asked to interfere in behalf c’
the people. ’’’he bill introduced in Con
gre s by Repn sentativc Green will have
the desired effect, if the Republican party
has the courage to make it a law.
It is clear to any thinking man that the
trusts and combines are inimieable to the
welfare of this country, and common sense
demands that a stop be put to their nefa
rious business.
Either Congress must find a remedy, or
else the people will resort to socialism
The solution must be reached peaceably
and regularly, or else history will repeat
itself.
The people may submit for a time, but
once they have become convinced that no
relief can expected from our law-mak
inf bodies, they will take the matter into
their own hands.
Arizona, New Mexico. Oklahoma and
Indian Territory, all knocking at the door
of the Unnion for admittance, have all
been turned down by the House of Reed.
And yet these henchmen of ’ plutocracy
have the audacity to insult the intelli
gence and patriotism of the people by the
hypocritical pretense of being their
friends.
Latest Church Statistics,
The annual compilation of church sta
tistics made by the New York indeptn
shows that about c-ie-hurd of The
25.9919,027 communicants in the United
States, are Roman Catholics The most
numerous Protestant denomination is the
-It .hodiits, With 5,735, S9S while the Bap
tists are secoul (includrae* the r mut.f i
nous subdivisions,) with 4,175,300. The
next in order are the Lutherans, with 1-
507.406, and then follow the Presbyterians,
who number 1,490.162; the Decipies of
Christ with a total of-. 051,079; the Epis
copalians. with 658,640. and the Congrega
tionalists, with 630.000. The numerical
equauity of the last two churches has been
continued for a number of years, though
the Episcopalians appear to be gaining a
little on their Puritan brethren. The
Unitarians, despite their recent efforts to
Increase the number of their adherents,
are practically at a standstill, with only
70,000 members, while there are but 51,-
025 Universalists all told. The total num
ber of communicants in all the churches is
enormous—more than twenty-five millions;
but that is scarcely more than one-third of
the population of the whole country. What
is the religious status of the other fifty
million?

A High Compliment.
The Augusta Federation of Labor, com
prising all the labor unions of Augusta,
has taken occasion to pay a most graceful
compliment to Miss Mary Lamar Patter
on, the talented society editor of The
News. in recognition of her recent article
on “Child Labor In the Mills.”
Not since Miss Clare De Graffcnreid
wrote on labor conditions in the South has
any article on a similar line attracted so
much attention as has the article by Miss
Patterson, which recently appeared in The
News and other papers.
It has aroused much interest in the child
labor question, and many newspapers have
stated that it is the beginning of an agita
tion that will eventually bring about the
abolishment of child labor in Georgia.
A large number of Georgia newspapers
ha\e commented at length and most fa
vorably on Miss Patterson's article, and
The News has received requests from far
and near for copies of the paper contain
ing the article in question. So much in
terest has been shown that The News con
templates publishing the article in
pamphlet form for tree distribution, in the
hope of agitating this needed reform more
vigorously.
As evidence of the great interest shown
by laboring people themselves in Miss
Patterson s article, the Augusta Federa
tion of Labor has unanimously passed a
resolution thanking the lady for her efforts
iu behalf of labor and inviting her to de
liver the next Labor Day address in that
city. As Miss Patterson is not an orator,
it ’*lll, of course, be impossible for her
io address the laboring people of Augusta,
but the compliment jraiM her by them is
none the less appreciated. Like a great
many other good women in Georgia, Miss
1 a-terson secs the need for reform in this
quarter and she has the courage and
ability to express herself in a most forci
ble way though not from the platform.
Says the Brunswick Advertiser: “That
" Candida y of Hon. Allen D. Candler,
in the face of sticug official combinations,
and as settled convictions of other poli-
1 *al strength, should have been received
wi.h such general satisfaction from one
f * < 1 of the state to another, and breaking
over lines of well sustained local influ
ences. is an unusual compliment to m--n
seeking popular favor in these (lays. There
is the verberation and rythm of the peo
ple's desires in this quick acknowledgment
of gratification, and a sounding of victory
for the Democratic party in Georgia, such
as has not been recorded in many years,
and we hope ireans a lessening of the
family friction.”
The principal object in life which the
Republican party seems to have just now
is to make capital for Democracy, and pile
up its chances for a heavy majority in the
next House. Upon every question that has
come up in Congress since the Cleveland
contingent administration came into pow
er, except a single one, in which the in
terests of the people and the welfare of
the country were involved, they have with
great unanimity stood by plutocracy in
upholding the robber trusts and thieving
combines.
Speaking of the best iwipers for adver
tisers, (Printers Ink recer tly said: “They
are evening papers of high character and
have a worth to advertisers beyond the
mere figure of their daily circulation.
They have no waste circulation.”

ANIMAL FRIGHT.
How long does fright last iu a wild ani
mal? The close observer will be surprised
at its brief duration. They are not sub
ject to “nerves” like human beings. A
par:ridge, after running (or rather flying)
the gantlet of naif a dozen guns—if we
may be allowed to mixed metaphor—drops
on the other side of the hedge and begins
calmly to peck as if nothing had happen
ed. You would think a rabbit, after hear
ing a charge of shot whistling about its
haunches and just managing to escape
from a yelping spaniel, would keep indoors
for a week, but out it pops merrily as
soon as the coast is clear. A fox. pursued
by hounds, has been known to halt and
kill a fowl in its flight, though we may as
sume that his enemies were not close to
Reynard at the time.

MACON IN THE CIRCUIT.
The Southern May Musical Festival an
Assured Fact.
As announced exclusively in Macon by
The News, a few days ago, a strong com
pany of Southern and Northern men com
bined, has been formed to introduce dur
ing the coming month of May the first se
ries of annual musical festivals to be given
each May in twelve Soutnern cities. This
company will be known as the J. S. At
kinson & Co., and are backed by years of
experience and ample capital to make the
enterprise a success. They have already
secured their company forty of the finest
musicians ever brought to the South, pick
ed from among the celebrities of the North
and West. Their Prima Donna Soprana
will be Mlle. Alice Verlet, of the Opera
Comique, of Paris, w'ho has made such a
phenomenal success during her two years
stay in America.
Mr. Atkinson is no stranger to the
South or to Macon, being well known as
the manager of the Southeastern Lyceum i
Association, of Raleigh, N. C-, and who i
supplied Macon with such a musical treat i
in tfh visit of the great violinist Edouard
Rcmenyi, last season. He has recently
closed contracts for these festivals in i
Nashville, Knoxville, and Atlanta, and has
spent a part of this week in Macon in con
sultation with the officials of the Young
Men’s Christian Association, with the re
sult that those energetic gentlemen will
have charge of this great musical event in .
Macon, which in itself is a guarantee that
it will be a complete success.
President T J. C. Park, General Sec- .
retary Stacy and Mr. F. R. Jones, of the
educaLonal roinmittee. who win have the
active management of the festival, have
investigated thoroughly the artists engag
ed for the festival and pronounce them of
the highest order, and Macon may well be
proud .to have such an event in her his
tory.
Cnly four festivals will be given in
Georgia, in Atlanta, Macon, Augusta and
Savannah, and if it proves a success, as it
undoubtedly will, it will be made a perma
nent thing, just as are held every year in
Cincinnati, and in ail the principal cities
of the Norht and East.
Macon and the South are entitled to just
as fine entertainments as these places, and
can have them just as well as not, and the
Young Men’s Christian Association should
be heartily upheld in their laudable en
deavor to furnish us with such an attrac
tion as this.
The News will keep the public fully
advised as to the particulars, as the fur
ther developments t-.re perfected.
NO SLEEP FOR THREE MONTHS.
One Cause of Sleeplessness that can be
Readily Overcome.
Mr. William Handschu, of 46th St. Cot
ton Alley, Pittsburg, Pa. expresses him
self as follows regardingthe new remedy
for that common and obstinate disease,
piles; I take pleasure in stating that 1
was so afflicted with piles that for three
months I got no regular sleep; I became
completely prostrated, the doctors did me
no good; my brother told me of the new
remedy for piles, the Pyramid Pile Cure; I
purchased from my druggist three 50c
boxes and they completely cured me. I
am once more at my work and but for this
excellent medicine I would be on my back.
I take great pleasure in writing this letter
because so many people are sufierers from
this trouble, who, like myself, did not
know where to look for a permanent, re
liable safe cure.
Experience with the Pyramid Pile Cure
for the past three years has demonstrated
to the medical profession, as well as to
thousands of sufferers from piles, that it
is the safest and most effectual pile cure
ever offered to the public, containing no
opiates or poisons of any kind, painless
and convenient to handle and being sold
by druggists at 50c and $1 per box, is
within the reach of every sufferer.
Very frequentlyy two or three boxes have
made a complete cure of chronic cases that
had not yielded to other remedy for years.
There is scarcely a disease more aggra
vating and obstinate to cure than the
various forms of piles and it is the com
mon practice to use ointments, salves and
similar preparations containing dangerous
poisons to remove the trouble. The Pyra
mid has superceded all of these ineffectual
remedies and no one suffering with any
rectal trouble will make any mistake in
giving the Pyramid a trial.
If in doubt as to the nature of your
trouble send to he Pyramid Drug Co ,
Marshall, Mich., for a valuable little book
on piles, describing all forms of the dis
ease and describing the methods of cure.
Any druggist can furnish the Pyramid
Pile Cure, as it is the best known and
most popular remedy for piles, and if you
ask him he can doubtless refer you to
many people in your vicinity who have
been cured completely by it.

SPANKING.
A Strong Woman Created a Scene for
Amazed Bystanders.
New York. Feb. 4.—'Miss Edith Thomp
son has a grievance—a somewhat unique
grievance. Edith, who is b* sutiful and
just out of her “teens,” lives "with her pa
rents in Hollis, L. I.
She has brought suit before Justice B.
Frank Wood, in Jamaica, Borough of
Queens, for the humiliation inflicted upon
her by Mrs. Annie Scholl, of the same
place.
Mrs. School is a robust woman, well
able to batle with almost any of her sex,
and is not a person -who will allow an in
sult to go unresented. The story is that
Miss Thompson said some unpleasant things
about Mrs. Scholl, and when they met in
Jamaica avenue there was a scuffle.
Miss Thompson was sauntering along
the avenue with another young woman,
when, it is alleged, she made the remark:
“There she goes.”
Scarcely had the echo of Miss Thomp
son’s words died away when Mrs. Scholl,
with the spring of an angry tigress, pounc
ed upon Miss Thompson and placing the
young woman across her knee, as if she
were a mere child, who had violated some
rule in a country school, spanked her with
might and main.
Several persons were strolling along the
avenue at the time, and they were scan
dalized by Miss Scholl’s method of inflict
ing punishment. It was not the chastise
ment nor the injury inflicted that prompt
ed Miss Thompson to obtain a warrant for
Mrs. Scholl’s arrest, but the humiliatim;
and notoriety she suffered as a result of
what she declares was an unprovoked as
sault. (Mrs. Scholl was arrested.
Consumption Positively Cored.
Mr. R- B. Greeve, merchant, of Chil
howie, Va., v certifies that he had consump
tion, was given up to die, sought all medi
cal treatment that money could procure,
tried all cough remedies be could hear of,
but got no relief; spent many nights sit
ting up in a chair; was induced to try Dr.
King’s New Discovery, and was cured by
the use of two bottles. For the past three
years has been attending to business, and
says Dr. King’s New Discovery is the
grandest remedy ever made, a sit has done
so much for him and also for others in his

to be of great interest. The object of the
convention is the study of quarantine in
its relations to epidemic diseases in gen
eral, and to yellow fever especially. It is
the intention to have present at the in
vestigation representatives from nearly
every profession.
It was thought by having the conven
tion composed of lawyers, physicians,
ministers, railroad officials, journalists,
merchants and representatives from the
national and state governments, the sub
jects for discussion would be considered
broadly and practically, and with the sole
purpose of reaching the wisest solutions.
The national quarantine question will
occupy a large portion of the time during
the convention. This question has been
discussed throughout the country and has
many advocates. Os the governors who
will attend the convention three favor a
national quarantine, while two favor local
control.
