We nave publlsned en lor. tuh nts ot his caudiaacy .rom a number ot newspapers and we have also reprodu 1 d tird’orstiuents of Colonel a’andk r, som< of the latter ibfeiug taken rroin the Macon News. We have endeav ored to kiep our leaders informed as iully us possible concerning the contest lor tne Di mo Tutic gubernatorial aomina 'tidkn, and we will continue to do so. We think iney have a right to know what the newspapers ot Georgia are saying about ■this matter and wc have acted on this plan so liberally that we have even inclu ded the Macon News In our quotations. Os both Colonel Candler and Judge Atkinson the Journal has spoken not only with great respect, but even in very complimentary terms. » » » * The Journal has uo candidate for governor and does not expect to have one until the Democratic nomina tion is made. —'Atlanta Journal. We don’t blame the Journal for refusing to .print The News’ paragraph in full. It evidently objects to being placed in such company. The original paragraph, how ever, was as follows: "Spencer R. Atkinson, if he survives the support of both the Atlanta Journal and the Macon Telegraph, may live to run for congress in his district next time on the Ocala platform.’’ And we still insist that both of these pa pers are giving Atkinson their secret sup port. It is best, of course, for them to deny it, for either of them would do him more harm than good by admitting it. One is not line -with its party and the other has been, by common consent, read out of the party. Neither have the ear of the people, nor their confidence, and for them to openly espouse the cause of any can didate would turn the rank and fi ; e of the party against him. >We are sorry that we cannot accept the Journal's disavowal, 'but we happen to icnew a thing or two that doesn’t appear on the surface. For the editor ot The Jour nal we have all respect. lHe means well, and would, no doubt, pursue a different policy if allowed to do so. But the Jom mal’s policy has always been and widl al ways will be dictated by Mr Hoke Smith, and—pity 'tis 'tis true —its editor is prac tically no more than one of the machines In that office. Under different circum stances, with different environments, he ■would appear in a much better light and his ability and judgment could .be better appreciated. As it is the Journal has persiste'ntly pursued a policy that has lost for it the re spect and confidence of the people, and, as in this instance, its editor has been forced ■to go contrary to his conscience and judg ment. A few months ago the Journal vied with the Constitution in advocating the cause of Allen D. Candler —an upright man. an honest politician of the "old school,” a staunch statesman, as the Journal itself frequently characterized him. The editor of the Journal, believing that Candler was the best man for the office of governor, gave him active and loyal support, and it began to be a question whether the Jour nal or Constitution would occupy the most prominent seat in tl« Candler band wagon. The editor of the Journal was no doubt confident that he would bn allowed to pur sue 'his pol’cy ’o the eni. - Rut there was another shake of the po litical dice, and Hoke Smith found it ex pedient to call off the Journal. Whether it w.m merely for the sake of opposing the Constitution, or whether Mr. Smith simply chose to risk his own political fortunes with the “ring” crowd, or both, can be surmised. At any rate, he caused his Jour nal to take a different tach, and from that day it has been pumping hot shot into the Candler ranks from ambush. It cannot make an open fight, for the reasons stated nt the outset. So it has hit on a policy similar to that of the Telegraph, and to gether they constitute the bushwhacking contingent of the Atkinson forces. Os course, it is necessary for both of these papers to deny their opposition to * ancler. Their work would be ineffective, positively hurtful to their own candidate if they should admit it. But the people un derstand a thing or two, and they are not so easily fooled as The Journal imagines. i\e regret as much as anyone that the Journal has placed itself in such company and given itself to such tactics. It is not creditable to its sense of journalistic hon or—nor to its political judgment. 1 he Journal has simply become a secret foe,, and no right-thinking man can ad mire such a foe. it woud defeat Its own candidate, to be sure, but it would be more creditable to the Journal if it would come out in the open and fight Candler boldly and fearlessly. 7 The Americus Times-Recorder is also onto the Atlanta Journal’s game. It says: "The Timcs-Reoordergives publi.a ionto a rare skit of journalistic enterprise d s covered in the Atlanta Journal of Satur day. It is Editor Francis Henry Riehard eon’s apology for his deser .V on c£ Mr. Candler. The smoothe and genial Mr. Richardson would have the people believe that the Journal was ben on giving ’he news. The methods of the Atlanta Journ nal are well established. No news is ever solicited of a political nature which does not coincide with the views entertained by its boss. Mr. Hoke Smith, and ne-■ = iT-ev er published In the Journal he does not most cordially approve. You can’t fool the people, Editor Richardson. They’ll probably take your word for your good and praiseworthy intentions, but they’ll be found reading between the lines.” Bill Atkinson says Colonel Candler is the Southern Railway’s candidate. Look out for the fellow who cries "stop thief.” The Macon Telegraph is keeping busy explaining its support of Atkinson. Judge Atkinson should get out an in 'ToleeTanh. But Others Have Not the Same Interest in Him. The Advert.se r has cherished the wish thrf, Allen D. Candler might, as appear ances indicated, reap the reward ot his great favor before the unselfish Democracy of Georgia, because of all mtn early listed i as possible aspirants his chaiacter and hia ; views stood so far above the others, in the estimation of The Advertiser, as a pledge ‘to improved politics in this state, that he became its ideal, and k has no apologies for such confidence, nor will it have for .the motives which prompt it to support Judge Atkinson, in 'he event whereby circumstances move l.onorable men to one preference over another. It is because that Judge Atkinson Is in char acter and ability eqttal to Candler and closer in The Advertiser's acquaintance and personal friendship, and as a sectional favor, that it would change its course, and in doing so. would neither play the "craw fish" act, or attempt to counteract former impressions.—Brunswick Advertiser. Or. in other words, to be very frank about it. The Advertiser’s support is based entirely on the fact that Judge Atkinson is a home man. This is natural, and Tae Advertiser is not to be criticised for it, but it cannot make the public outside of Brunswick feel the same way about it. As The Advertiser truly says Mr. Candler's character and views stood so far above the ether aspirants for the office” that there really seemed to be no occasion or excuse for opposition. But now that a home man has been "foolish" enough to offer for the place, why, of course, 'the Advertiser though unwillingly it must be believed, if its former advice was sincere - gives him its support. But the people of Georgia out-ide of Brunswick—and ’he little political ring that has put him in .he race have no such interest in Judge A klnson s ambition. They see no reason why they should turn down one of the best men that ever offered to serve Georgia as her chief executive merely to promote the political fortunes of a citizen of Bruns wick. And they arc not going to do it; Cu'dde of his own district and Governor Atkinson’s own district the Brunswick man will not carry a dozen counties in Georgia. Silver Forces Unite, An agreement has been reached by the Democratic, Populist and Free Silver Re publican committees, by w'hich said forces will be united in 1898 and 1900, and all will suport one candidate in ca.:h cor.gr< ssional district, and the Democratic candidate for President —Wiliam J. Bryan in 1900, if he lives. The addresses on behalf or the Demo cratic and Populist parties, which are the result of the conferences which have been in progress among the leaders of these par ties at the caipital for the last few weeks, were Issued yesterday. They seek to unite the members of the three .parties 'in future elections upon the financial issue as the question of paramount importance, and are separate appeals to each of the parties to consolidate all along the lines for this purpose. The address to Democrats is signed by Senator James K. Jones, of Ar kansas, chairman ot the Democratic Na tional committee, and is endorsed by the Democratic congressional committee; that to the Populists by (Senator Marion Butler, chairman of the Populist National com mittee, and the twenty-five members of the senate and house; and that of the Sil ver Republicans by Chairman Charles A. Towns, and the Silver Republicans in the senate and house, and also by ex-Senator Dußois. The real meaning of this is that the sil ver forces will unite with the Democratic party to re-establish the money of the constitution. So that the Democratic par ty has nothing to lose by the coalition, but will go to the poll's in 1900 prepared to sweep the country. The combination makes the election of Bryan more than ever certain. The story of the fearless administration of George M. Troup is being retold by the state press. Troup was the la~>t South Georgia governor, and, as The Times has often insisted, It is about time for another one.—Brunswick Advertiser. And is it true- .that Judge Atkinson's candidacy is to be pitched on this plane? The Times, which has all along strongly urged Judge .Atkinson to refuse to "sacri fice himself” merely to gratify the designs of a certain political ring, must be hard up for a reason, Indeed, when it bases Its support for Atkinson on sectionalism. There is no isectlonallsm in Georgia, and we would be sorry to see such a spirit aroused. In what respect is a South Geor gia man better than a 'North Georgia man, or vice versa? How will the election of a Glynn county governor be worth more to the people of Dooly or Werth dr Lowndes than the election of a Hall county man? We are all Georgians, and all true Geor gians love every foot of the grand old commonwealth. And Allen D. Candler is a Georgian of Georgians He is now a North Georgian (or, at least, his resi dence is there) but he is ak-o a South Georgian and a Middle Georgian. We hope the Atkinson contingent will have the decency to pitch their campaign on a higher plane. “WHAT, GOLD.” Silver Champion Bryan Received a Shock When Gold Was Found. Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 16 —William Jen nings Bryan has demonstrated again his fealty to the cause of silver. From the proceeds of his lectures last year Bryan purchased a fine tract pf su burban property. For some time his tenant has been trying to have him dig a well and last week work was begun. Yes terday morning the well expert was at the Bryan residence bright and early. In his coat pocket he had a double handful of fine black sand. This he excitedly shewed to Bryan and began to dilate upon the value of his find. "But what is it?" asked Bryan. “Don’t you know’? NVhy. that -is gold bearing sand.” But Mr. Bryan’s hand had gone up in protest. “Net that, my friend; not that. Never mind the sand; go on with the well. I don’t want to know that I have become a gold mine owner.” Similar finds of low grade ore have been frequent in the vicinity and 20 miles away the sand is being worked with profit.

MACON NEWS WEDNESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 16 1898. FBI. POWDER Absolutely Pure Library Tickets Given With Dog Licenses. Some time ago the Kansas City council passed an ordinance giving the public li brary 50 per cent of all money derived from dog licenses. This will amount to about §2,500 per year. The membership fee to the public library is $1 annually. The promoters of the free membership scheme claim that by virtue of the ordi nance giving the library half cf the deg li cense money the poor people of the city practically support the library. They argue it is not the rich people who keep dogs, but the poor classes. The license on a female dog is $2.50, while it costs $1.25 per year to harbor a male dog. It is claimed that 95 per cent of the money de rived from deg licenses comes from the laboring people, and, inasmuch as their money supports the institution, they think it is no more than right that they should be allowed free access to the library. The ordinance will provide that when a person takes out a dog license the city clerk shall issue with it one membership to the library.—Topeka State Journal. CASTOR IA Fcr Infants and Children mg jWili ' ~ IP 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 for 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 iu 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.
