The "pi anut politicians" who, in order to save their own carcass, have been searching high anti low for a candidate to represent the Atkinson ring and oppose Colonel Candler tor the gubernatorial nomination, have seized upon a letter, ad dressed by Colonel Candler to a few friends in this state, as a piece of cam paign material that should defeat'Mr. Cand ler and continue their own ring in power. The letter in question may have been somewhat ill-advised, as viewed from the standpoint of modern political methods, but no one will say that it is untruthful. It- merely states that the same political methods which defeated General Evans lour y. ars ago are to be employed again this year; taal the Atkinson ring is mov ing heaven and earth to defeat the will 01 the people in this instance, as they did then. These things are true. The facts have been generally known for some time past, it was only a question of time when a ring candidate would have .been put for ward to oppose Mr. Candler. Mr. Candler knew these things and he has simply exposed their game before they were ready for it. This has, naturally, made his political enemies all the more ibitter, but how has it affected those peo ple who were tied to no ring, and who re gard gubernatorial candidates solely from a standpoint of fitness? Has speaking the truth made Allen D. Candler less acceptable as a gubernatorial candidate? Has a plain statement of fact as regards Atkinson’s well known political methods made the prospective candidate of •that ring better fitted for the high office of governor? These are the questions which the honest, unbiased voter will weigh. The "peanut.” contingent have attemp ited. however, to give the letter another wignilicance. They are trying to make it appear that Colonel Candler's letter is a gratuitous insult for all those people who voted for Atkinson in 1891. This is sim ply additional evidence of the dishonest, contemptible methods which the Atkinson ring has always resorted to in its political <■oll tests. However, no man who voted for Atkin son in 1894, and who now regrets the mis take then made, will feel in the least of tfended. Col. Candler but spoke the senti ments of all of these when he said the men who defeated Gi neral 'Evans were guilty ot corrupt and unfair methods then, and would employ the same methods in the coming campaign. As Colonel Candler himself says: "I want to say that there is not a senti ment in that letter that reflects on any clean politician, and there is nothing in it ■to deny or retract. All I ask in this con test is a clean campaign and the applica tion of honest methods by which every Democrat in Georgia will have the right to express his choice at the ballot box. I trust that none who take exception to the personal letter referred to will put them selves in the attitude of even indirectly advocating any other course.” It cannot be said that Colonel Candler’s letter will tend to solidify the ring poli ticians and their little heelers throughout the state. They always work in unison and vote solidly every time the whip is ■ersrtecd. It certainly will not offend the ■Evans men. And it cannot offend those who wish to see Atkinson methods repudi ated in the coming campaign—no matter for whom they voted in 1894. The simple truth is the vast majority of ■the people of Georgia are heartily sick and tired of the peanut politicians and their methods, and if the politicians themselves do not believe it, let them put up their candidate and give the decent people of the state one more chance. If their can didate happens to be of the same name as the ring which he represents and the discredited head thereof, so much the bet ter. Says the Telfair enterprise: "Persons visiting in Macon from Monroe county, the home of Hon. R. L. Berner, express them selves as certain that Mr. Berner will run for congress this year against Hon. C. L. Bartlett, the present incumbent, and in the event of such a contest that Mr. Bet ■tier will challenge Mr. Bartlett to a joint debate on the stump throughout the dis trict. It goes without saying that Mr. Bartlett will accept such a challenge, for he is an aggressive fighter. There are ten counties in the district, with twenty-six votes, therefore it will require thirteen votes and the fraction of a vote to nomi nate.** Political and Practical Railroading. The News and Observer of Raleigh, N. C., in commenting upon the appearance of Mr. St. John, of the Seaboard Air Line ■Railroad, before the railroad commission of that state, has this to say: “At the hearing before the railroad com mission yesterday, when Mr. St. John, of the Seaboard Air Line, was asked to pre sent the names of the parties to whom his road had issued passes, he said very promptly that he was ready to furnish them. Mr. Elliott, of the Atlantic Coast Line, made a like response. There was no ’higgling' or hesitation about it, but a per fect willingness to give the commission any information requested. "This was in striking contrast to the refusal of the Southern Railroad to fur nish the same Information, Colonel An drews declining on the ground that it might tend to ‘incriminate him.’ The real reason why the Southern Railway is unwilling at this juncture, when the Dem ocrats are sure to return to power at the next general election, to let its list of pass-toters be seen is that it will show that In the campaign of 1896, that road was run wide open in transporting Mc- Kinley speakers all over the state. It would also show that the Southern Rail way brought the big gang of Pritchard strikers to Raleigh during the last legis lature to elect that corporation agent and McKinley supporter to the United States Senate. There are other like reasons why the manipulator of the Southern Railway’s North Carolina politics is unwilling for the commission to ‘take a look at the books.’ "Mr. St. John and Mr. Elliott’s course showed that they were conducting their roads in the interest of the stockeholders and the people along its line, and had nothing to conceal. It is well known that the Southern Railway is a political con cern, and was run wide open for McKin ley, and its fight for McKinley aided in the election of Russell if it did not ac tually secure his election. "The attitude ot Mr. St. John and Mr. Elliou is toe attitude of practical railroad men who have nothing to fear; the atti tude of Colonel Andrews is that of a poli tical railroad manipulator.” L’nless industrial conditions change President uompers of the American hed eration of Labor, will act most unwisely if ne sattciions an eight-hour-day stride, thinks the Buffalo Times. The majority o» wage- workers, whether belonging to unions or otherwise, are not in a coiitii tion to stand a strike for any length of time-. We have seen the disastrous ell eel that the recently collapsed English engi neers strike has had upon -the unions of Great Britain, wbicn went into tae tight with a strong and well filled treasury. The present times are far from prosperous for such an undertaking. The fact that The Times has advised Judge Atkinson to remain out of the gubernatorial race this year is causing much apparent satisfaction to the zealous newspaper supporters ot Colonel Candler. But Suppose Judge Atkinson declines to take the advice of The Times —what then? —Brunswick Times. W by. The Times would have to support him, of course. But he would be just as big a chump as The Tinies lias intimated. The same principles are involved in the present gubernatorial race as were in volved in 1894—ring politics against honest methods. But the ring politicians will find that they have a man to deal with thia time who will fight tihem to the last ditch. Says the Jones County News: “It now looks as if Judge Spencer Atkinson, would enter the gubernatorial race. He may get a few votes in the county but they would hardly be worth counting. Candler will carry it overwhelmingly.” The information that Representative John T. Boifeuillet, of Macon, would be a candidate for clerk of the House of Rep resentatives to succeed Uncle Mark Har din, has caused something of a stir in po litical circles. —Telfair Enterprse What paper can you pick up without seeing an account of the formation of some new trust? asks the Knoxville Sentinel. In parallel columns are told the cutting down of wages, or the going out of work men on strikes. The New York Sun, by an irony of fate, is the worst sufferer from trust forming. The news combination has shut it out and even forbids its patrons buying news of the Sun. The strength of the Pious John Wan.a maker’s campaign in Pennsylvania, it is said, lies in the self-evident fact that while Wanamaker may be as bad as Quay, he cannot possibly be worse. Judge Spencer R. Atkinson is probably holding off his announcement until he can make certain that he is in no danger of incurring the Telegraph’s active support. The Atkinson crowd won before on a bluff; and they vainly imagine .that they can do the same thing again. .But the peo ple are onto their game this lime. What sense is there in giving a criminal like Leutgert a life sentence? If he is guilty he ought to be put to death, if not he should be released. "The Telegraph will take a hand only to see that there is a fair fight.” And, as is its custom, it is bushwhacking Candler at every turn. The Atkinson crowd would, in few days, have declared their opposition to Candler, anyway; so what’s the difference? Before Spencer R. Atkinson decides to run for governor Jje should petition the Legislature to change his name. It is understood that the Atkinson crowd would feel more hopeful if they could only shake the Macon Telegraph. Can anything that may be written make the continuance of ring rule in Georgia politics desirable? Colonel Candler has simply thrown down the gauntlet; that’s all . On the whole, it is best not to write let ters at all. The truth always hurts. Great Caesar! Atlanta Commercial. About the biggest exhibition of egotistic cheek, unadulterated assumacy and ase nlne conceit we ever heard of is found in the Macon Telegraph of today. In a la bored screed on the candidacy of Railroad Commissioner Atkinson for governor it says; "The Telegraph will take a hand in this fight only to see that there is a fair fight. It has been too long the rule in Georgia for certain aspirants for party preferment to come under the ban of news paper displeasure if they are not duly slated, and attached to the fortunes of a cabal of popgun politicians. To rid the party in this state of the baneful influ ences of the personal organ in politics will be the aim of the Telegraph.” This set tles it! Now, boys, no underhold! No striking below the solar pexis, for if you do. the Telegraph will catch you. Its great and good eye is upon you, and by jingo, it wjll tolerate no nidering. The Telegraph is superlatively honest. It makes no pre tentions to Republicanism, but it never lets a chance slip to kick at the ‘Democ racy. THEY COST TOO MUCH. But Windmills Can Generate Electricity— Several in Use. (A telegram from New York says Mr. Achoa, of that city, has utilized wind pow er in electric lighting and tnat the limit of applicability has not been reached. J. P. Roper, superintendent of the Mis souri-Edison Electric Light Company, said: "The invention is not startlingly new, as Mr. Brush, of the Brush Electric Company, of Cleveland, 0., has lighted’ his house for some years by the same means. Electricity in generated by power, and it matters not whether from coal, falling wa ter or moving air, so that it be sufficient to run a dynamo. The great objection to us ing wind is that it varioes in force from nothing to enormous amounts and could not be counted upon to do its work with out storage batteries.” W. A. Layman, of the Wagner Electri ctl Manufacturing Company, said that the great drawback to using wind is the great number of regulating devices that would be needed. A. A. King, electrician, said: "Several years ago 1 had a small dynamo run by wind power, which I used in testing appa ratus. I found it practical to a certain degree, but the cost of the machinery nec essary to light a large house would pre clude its use.” JASPER COUNTY TO THE FRONT.

Quin lan, Jr., mdy never be able to tell the di rectors of the Chemical National Bank how or why he made the loans to Francis Grable, amounting to 1210,000, and to John S. Silver, amounting to about $183,000, on securities which the bank declined to ac cept. He is suffering from a very severe attack of neurasthenia, and it is even feared that his mind is dangerously affected. He is in absolute ignorance of the sensation he has caused. Before the end of the year, it was re ported, George H. Williams will have re signed his position as president of the Chemical Bank. Mr. ‘Williams is one of the most favorably known financiers in the United States. His reputation is interna tional. It is said that Mr. Wiliams, who is nearly 70, feels keenly the notoriety in cident to the retirement of Cashier, and he has decide to resign November 1 next at the annual meeting of the bank.

The Chinese are truly a fine people; asleep, but not worse off. I never met in Asia or anywhere a single man who knows the Chinese and the Japanese well who docs not say that physically, mentally and morally the Chinese arc superior to the Japanese. We must not judge the huge agglomerate n of differing Chinamen by those we seo here. These are all Kwang tung coolies, except the occasional tall, large framed men of the more northerly provinces who conic to us on diplomatic missions. The farther south you travel in China the smaller, weaker and less ad mirable do you find the people, so that in the far south, where the French were the first to begin the partitioning of China, they are no bigger than the Japanese and nothing like as able. Our Cantonese have not proved bad vis iters, yet they are not tor be compared for physical merit, for shrewdness, commer cial ability, refinement or morality with their neighbors to the north, who in stat ure rise higher and higher, as if nature had planted t bcm i n terraces. The Chinese, as a whole, present bett< r material for the magical manipulation of progress than the Japanese seemed to offer 40 years ago. They are a finer people than any other Asiatics, unless the people of India have to be excepted.—Harper’s Weekly. Laying Railroads Under Difficulties. The prejudice of the Chinese against railroads has not yet been overcome. The latest mails bring a curious story about the expi rience of the surveyors who are laying out the line between Peking and Hankow. The route is very circuitous, in order to lift the track above the overflow of the rivers upon the plains, and was de cided upon after long study and many dif ficulties. Imagine the disgust of the sur veyors when, alter an interval of thyee or four months, they attempted to go over the line a second time and discovered that ev ery one of the stakes they had driven had been carefully removed mid every other landmark they bail left to indicate the route had been obliterated. Nearly two thirds of the work had to be done over again, but it was not attempted until an edict was issued by the governor of the province prohibiting the disturbance of any of the surveyors’ marks under penalty of death.—Washington Letter in Chicago Record. vCRy / , \\K -/ f i,5SwLMba ; WW S® .a ® Wilt’s Specific is a vegetable remedy that drives the destroying demons of disease cut of the blood.

The Reasons of it It is not by accident or by chance that the Ivers & Pond piano is hold in such high esteem. There is a good reason for it. Ths New England Conservatory of Music did not hapen to buy 227 Ivers & Pond pianos in preference to other makes. There is a reason for it. It was not merely good luck that led nearly two hundred of the most prominent musical and educa tional institutions in the country to se lect the Ivers & Pond. It was the result of careful investigation and sound rea son. There are good sound reason why you should decide upon an Ivers & Pond if you are going to buy a piano. The reputa tion of the makers for liberal and fair dealing is your safeguard. The important patented improvements found in no other piano is another reason for deciding in its favor. But it is the watchful and pains taking care that follows every piano from start to finish, and the conscientious and intelligent attention given to even the smallest details of construction that is the reason why the Ivers & Pond Piano can be depended upon to give the best results and the best wear.

Ind., Feb. 11—Saturday night George Cramer, a leader of a local sect calling themselves Free Thinkers, went to Ballengertown, a community in Jefferson township, to hold a meeting. While he was preaching someone locked the doors of the log cabin that is used as a church, and at the command of Cramer, given as follows: “With the help of the Lord kick down the doors,” the doors were broken down and the audience filed out. Not much was thought of the incident, .is the band is subject to many insults, but Sunday morning it was found that the building had been burned. This was too much for even the religious enthusiasts, and they vow to get even with some one. The same night the residence of Alvin Green, a follower of Cramer, living two miles from the church building, was stoned. -X-v-J’ X 3 *- .X. ft. fie- X’ , »iag« XO' z / 11 ” Os wrappw UNION SAVINGS BANK AND TRUST, COMPANY MACON, GA.
