Spencer R. Atkinson should have made
a play for the 'Populist nomination. Then
he would have Oven in nis element.
The really strange feature of the Cand
ler letter episode is that the Rome Tribune
ahould be proud of its part in the matter.
The new wire -trust which is capitalized
for $80,000,000, has commenced business
by raising the price on its products $1 per
ton.
If -Colonel Candler hadn't written that
letter —why, the Atkinson crowd would
(have had to base -their opposition on some
thing else.
According to the New York Sun’s Ger
man corersjHindent it is "lese majesty” to
Ibe caught wearing everyday working
clothes on Sunday.
The friends of Spencer R. -Atkinson
Bhculd not -be contented with the -Macon
Telegraph’s -denial of its support. They
ahould go to work to -prove it.
It is amusing bo see the mock indigna
tion of the Atkinson heelers. They have
almost worked themselves up to the belief
that they have been insulted.
Don’t forget that The News' want col
umns are people's exchange and mart.
Only one cent a word. The News is the
cheapest and best medium for reaching the
masses.
Astronomers now claim that the sun is
now 2,216,000 miles nearer the earth than
their former -measurements made It. Pos
sibly this accoun is dor the conflagrations in
Australia.
The Griffin News and -Sun accepts the
Candler letter as its cure for taking up the
cause of the Atkinson forces. But that's
all right, Glessuer; he simply made -it
easier for you.
Anything to oppose the Constitution is
the Macon Tek'4 £ *pb v « -position in Georgia
_ ToliUes. Thereby it -manages to get
itself read in a few Isolated spots through
out the state.
Spencer iR. Atkinson, if he survives the
support of both the Atlanta Journal and
the M-aeon Telegraph, may live to run for
congress in his district next -time on the
Ocala platform.
Judge Atkinson refused to take the
J O Times sensible advice, so now
that papei will fall In and support his for
lorn hope. Probably try -to work itself -up
to the belief that he has a fighting chance.
Buch is politics.
On March 15 the civil service commis
sion -will hold examinations throughout
the United States, for positions ranging
from an expert accountant to a single wo
man who is a good plain cobk, at an Indian
agency school.
Ex-Governor Bois, of lowa, has again
made one of his natural flops upon the
currency question, which is of course not
surprising in view of his past attitudes
and changes on the matter. Nevertheless
the worthy governor is not furnishing any
comfort to his ancient enemy the Repub
licans.
Will the defenders of the Dingley law
explain how it is that Minnesota farmers
have been compelled to sell their barley
at 25 cents per bushel, although the tariff
exacts a duty of 30 cents upon all that is
imported, asks an exchange. Let some of
the trust defenders explain this anomaly
if they can.
Says the Augusta -Chronicle: "It is
amusing to see how adroitly the opposition
to Colonel Candler is sweeping its drag
net, trying to array every possible antag
onism. If they keep it up they will con
vince the people taht Candler is of all oth
ers the man of the hour. The people will
love him for the enemies he has made.”
Chicago's wheat king, Joe Leiter, not
only made Phil Armour hustle last De
cemberto deliver the wheat he sold to
Leiter, but now this young man actually
deposits six millions in cold ease in Ar
mour's bank to let him know he is still
on deck and intends to stay there. But
what becomes of the consumer?
The stove trust is now in the field for
Incorporation with a modest capital of
$10,000,000. Prices of stoves are to go up
20 per cent, after the trust is formed. As
most people have their supply of winter
stores on hand they can view with equa
nimity the workings of the combine for a
little spell anyway.
That doughty old burgher, Oom Paul
Kruger, has been re-elected president of
the Transvail Republic. Although he is a
sufferer from a constitutional weakness,
the 'Boers found that they could not well
allow him to retire to private life. That
government now embraces more than a
half million souls and is doing pretty well
thank you.
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
Vanderlip being asked what to his mind
was the cause of imports of gold into this
country being prevented, in view of the
large balances in our favor held abroad,
gave it out that the scarcity of gold abroad
together with the higher rates of discount
prevailing were the main reasons why the
yellow metal would not flow this way very
aocn.
The present railroad passenger rate war
between Chicago and St. Louis roads to
Denver and other -Colorado points, reminds
one of the rate war carried on late in the
*7o’s. For a week or ten days passengers
■were carried from Chicago to Omaha or
Kansas City in reclining chair cars at
50 cents a head. The present contest while
no doubt a bitter one, will scarcely come
down to any such basis as that. The
traveling public, however. Is malting no
kick over the continuation of the war.
Its Usual Tactics.
The Macon Telegraph is now trying to
deny that it is supporting Spencer R. At
kinson for governor. The people, however,
-thoroughly understand The Telegraph's
style of warfare. It bag never made any
other sort of flgbt since it passed under
its present management. It began by
bushwhacking the Democratic party, and
it has been fighting for its Republican
owners ever since—all the time claiming
to be a Democrat. So it has fought the
tie tiles of the Southern Railway—Rs owner
and proprietor. While pretending to be a
free, untrammeled newspaper and the
friend of '.he people, it has been working
to pull the wool over the people's eyes,
so that its oweners might carry out their
scheme of railroad consolidation in this
state. And it is pursuing exactly the same
methods in the gubernatorial rare. In this
instance, however, it is forced to fight
from ambush. It realizes, as well as any
one, that its active support will defeat
any man who offers for office in Georgia.
The candidates all understand it, too. oon
s'quently they are willing that The Tele
graph should remain in the bush.
As a consequence. The Telegraph started
out by declaring Itself to be absolutely
neutral and impartial. It will be remem
bered that The News at once put the peo
ple on their guard. We said ‘Watch it.”
And we didn’t have long to wait. It has
already shown its hand. It has not lost
an opportunity to stab Candler in the
back. It has legged for Atkinson from the
start, and it will keep up its bushwhack
ing methods in his behalf until it defeats
him.
For such support as The Telegraph is
giving Atkln«on would defeat him, even
if there were no other causes to contribute
to his defeat. The people of Georgia don’t
like bushwhacking. They don’t like a man
who pretends one thing and acts another.
They don’t like a newspaper that never
makes an open fight. The people of Geor
gia are above such methods and they can
not tolerate them in others.
They see in The Telegraph’s secret sup
port of Atkinson, or, at least, its secret
and malicious opposition to Candler, the
contemptible methods which they so much
d< sptse. And very few of -them would be
willing to contribute by their vote to the
success of such methods, even were the
opposition candidate more worthy of their
support.
Chronological Era.
The year 1898 comprises -the latter part
of the 122 d and the beginning of the 123 d
year of the independence of the United
Stales of America, notes the New York
Evening Telegram. It corresponds with-
The year 6611 of the Julian period.

according to Varro.
The year 2645 since the beginning of the
era of Nabonasar, which has been assign
ed to Wednesday, the 26th of February of
the 3967-th year of the Julian period; cor
responding, in the notation of chronolo
g;i-ts, to the 747th; -and in the notation of
astronomers to the 746th year before the
birth of Christ.
The year 2674 of -the Olympiads of the
second year of -the 669th Olympiad begin
ning in July, if we fix the era of the
Olympiads at 775 1-2 iB. C.

7he year 2558 of the Japanese era and
the 31st year of -the period entitled Meiji.
7he year 1315-1316 of the Mohammedan
era, or the era of the Hegira, -the year
1316 beginning May 22d.
January 1, 1898, was -the 2,414,2915 t day
since the beginning of -the Julian period.
Will Atkinson Resign?
'Colonel Candler has -promptly resigned
the office of secretary of state, and in do
ing so says he does not think it proper for
a candidate to hold one office while seek
ing another.
In this the people of Georgia agree with
him, -and the entire public will look to his
opponent to act in similar good taste and
fairness.
When Judge Atkinson was a candidate
for congress again-st Henry G. Turner, he
resigned the judgeship, because he then
thought it was improper to hold one office
while seeking another. -In fact it has al
ways been considered the proper thing to
do.
But it is now Intimated that Judge At
kinson will attempt to freeze onto his rail
road commisslonership while running for
governor of Georgia. It is believed that he
will not give up the -place if he can possi
bly avoid It. Only public opinion can
force him out.
The attitude of -the two candidates is
already in marked contrast. One really
sees the impropriety of holding one of
fice while seeking another and voluntarily
resigns. The other holds on and, it is said,
will continue to hold on—if allowed by his
friends to do so.
A Gradual Growth.
There is no cessation to thb growth of
The News’ circulation. -Every week the
list increases and the popularity of Ma
con's afternoon paper is more strikingly
shown. As proof of this it is only neces
sary to state that from ten to twenty
names are added to The News' lists every
day. Os course, there are some "stops,”
too, but not as many as the “starts’” so
that the list is gradually increasing all the
time.
The average is well maintained from
weekto week. The outside of town circula
tion is also experiencing a similar influ
ence and in nearly every nearby town The
News has a flattering list. And in addi
tion to the matter of quantity the reader s
attention may fittingly 'be called to the
quality of the papers circulation. It goes
to the homes and -is read by the fireside. A
majority of the subscribers are those who
receive their wages by the week—a class
which distributes more money among
the merchants of the city in proportion to
what they earn than any other. Advertise
ments that are read by The News’ subscri
bers pay.
Many object to Mr. Candler because they
can expect no polltioal preferment from
him. That is the whole story in a nut
shell. For that same reason the -people of
the state want to place him in the guber
natorial chair. He is a man who will
take office without a single promise and
that makes the polticians mad, each and
every one of them want to be promised, or
to have a good chance to get a fat office,
where they can wax fat at the public crib.
Allen Candler is not built of the kind of
stuff that will go into office with his hands
and feet tied, and for that reason the pos
sum supper and peanut politicians of the
state will opose him to their utmost. —
Americus Herald.
Hon. O. B. Stevens, of Dawson, will
prove a formidable candidate in the race
■for commissioner of agriculture, so formid
able, in fact, that we believe he will be
successful. He has hundreds of strong
friends all over Georgia who admire him
for his sterling integrity and who recog
nize in him those business and character
traits necessary to fill the office with abil
ity and profit -to the people. A man of
rugged honesty, and a practioal farmer,
who has made money farming, Mr. Ste
vens would make the state a commissioner
at agriculture whose office would prove a
practical value to his fellow farmers. No
wiser selection for this very important of
fice could be made.—Columbus Enquirer-
Sun.
Aceordington to a Washington Star re
porter’s interview with a leading handker
chief manufacturer of New York, the
American people use up an average of one
handkerchief per capita every three
months. In other words enough are made
and sold to allow each person to use and
■wear out four handkerchiefs per year. Os
course, that would not be many, but leav
ing out those who use none at all it leaves
a pretty fair average to go around among
those who regard the article as indispensa
ble to those moving in polite circles.

One of Hanna's colored delegates of the ■
vintage of ’96, was paid for his McKinley
vote with a postmastership down In a
Georgia out-of-the-way place and therat
hangs a tale, notes the Buffalo Times. This
office for a number of years paid its in
cumbent on an average the munificent re
turn of $39.15 annually and as the outlook
Is not promising for any improvement, this
particular postmaster is wearing the life

MEETS WITH FAVOR.
The Plan of Lovering for a Southern Labor
Confederacy.
The plan suggested by A. F. Lovering,
editor of he Tocsin, of Atlanta, to form a |
Southern Confederacy of labor or some or
ganization that will be to the south what
the American Federation of Labor is to
the North, is meeting with great favor
among most working men and labor or
ganizations of the south.
The American Federation of Labor does
not give the relief to the southern work
ing man that it should and there are
many reasons why the working men of the
south want to be out of that organization
and in one of their own. 7*he main reason
of the discontent is found in the following
extract taken from the articles of agree
ment of the American Federation of La
bor:
"Me reaffirm as one of the cardinal
principles of the trade union movement
that the working people must unite and
organize, irrespective of creed, color, sex,
nationality or politics.”
The word “color” is what causes the
trouble. The greatest trouble that the
working man in the south has is having
to compete with cheap colored labor. And
while It is the very thing they are fighting,
it is useless, they say, for them to belong
to an organization that takes the negro
in and gives him the same protection that
it does the whites.
This is the main trouble and the trades
unions of the south also claim that the
American Federation of Labor does not
help them in other ways. The American
Federation takes in their money as dues,
but when they have occasion to call on
the Federation for help they do not get
it, they say. The interests of the southern
man and his northern brother are not the
same and for this reason It is thought best
to have an organization in the south that
will be to the south what the American
Federation of Labor is to the north.
The Idea originated with Mr. Lovering
and through the columns of his paper he
has suggested the idea of having a con
vention of labor organizations of the south
to be held in Atlanta to discuss the plan
and organize. Letters have been received
from labor organizations all over the
south in which the plan is heartily en
dorsed and the writers signify their will
ingness -to take part in such convention.
It has not been decided yet when the
convention will be held, as arrangements
are pending with the railroads, but it is
thought now' that it will be called for the
middle of March. The idea in forming the
in Delay
It is one of the absolute
bilities of the world to cure the roots
by lopping' off the leaves. Those
who treat Catarrh with sprays,
washes and inhaling mixtures,
should know that those remedies
reach only the surface, and can
never cu re them. Catarrh invariably
leads to Consumption, and to delay
the proper treatment is to invite this
dreaded disease,
Catarrh
comes from diseased blood. Sprays
and washes won’t cure it, because
they do not reach the roots of the
trouble. There is no use experi
menting with the abominable dis
ease called Catarrh. There is no
use losing time.

new organization is not to take the labor
unions out of the American Federation
unless they so desire, and it is not to be
hostile to that organization. Labor unions
may belong to both, but It is hardly likely
that they will affiliate with the American
Federation after they are members of the
proposed organization.

The Reasons of It
It is not by accident or by chance that
the Ivers & Pond piano is held in such
high esteem. There is a good reason far it.
The 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 youi- 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.
