Unpatriotic Politicians.
Evidently the polliclans do not think
much of the Georgia exhibit at Omaha.
Probably hecouso the Georgia exhibit can
not vote. The following from Governor
iNorthcn, chairman of the Omaha Exposi
tion commission speaks for Itself, lie
"Unless wo have corresponding encour
agement from other sources the coinmis-
Hion will be compelled to abandon all effort
and decline to make application for space
al tho Omaha Exposition.
"Casting about for other sources of help,
personal letters have been addressed to
every member of congress, asking for a
small contribution —$5 each —to enable the
commission to successfully accomplish the
•work so Important to the interests of the
state. To these letters we have had four
replies.
"Similar letters, asking for the same
amount, were addressed to the state house
officials. To these we have had seven re
plies.
"Similar letters, asking for the same
amount, were addressed to the judges and
solicitors of all the courts in the state.
To these we have had five replies.
"Similar letters, asking lor the same
amount, have been addressed to all the
members of t’he general assembly of the
state. To these letters wc have had four
replies.”
■We would suggest to the chairman that
he publish the names of those to whom he
has written —and also those from whom
be. has received replies. Perhaps this
might stimulate the impression of some of
■the gentlemen as to the vote winning
jH>wer of the Omaha exhibit.
Consul General Lee tells us that 350,000
people have already died from hunger and
disease in Cuba, and that between 450,000
and 500,000 will follow' if something is not
done to relieve them.
No Time for Bigotry.
This is no time tor displays of bigotry,
religious, sectional, political, or radical.
It is no time for wild talk and extravagant
language. It only inflames popular feel
ing to no purpose. We do not suppose that
Wade Hampton, who thinks that the North
ought to do all the fighting if there is any
Sighting to be done, or Justin I). Fulton,
•who has a crazy idea that the Roman
(Catholic church is responsible for the
•blowing up of the Maine, and who talks
•through iiis headgear about the assassina
tion of Tom (Reed, McKinley and others,
or that minister out in Minnesota who is
"going to do all in his power to make
Spanish the prevailing language in hell,”
represent any’ considerable number of peo
ple.
Nevertheless 'the expression of all such
sentiments should be severely rebuked by
on inteligent and conservative, as well as
patriotic, public. As Justice -Harlan well
put it in his address to the Columbian Uni
versity students Saturday in speaking of
the Maine disaster: "If it turns out not to
lx» accidental we will not hear any more
of North, South, East or West, no more
of Republicans, Democrats or Populists;
we will hear only of Americans.”
Another thing that should be borne in
mind is this: If this country is 'to fight it
is for the preservation of national honor,
not for revenge, or to kill "Spanish devils.”
It is strange that it should be necessary
to mind some Christian ministers that
their utterances are very unChristian.
Such men as that Minnesota preacher who
■wants to make Spanish the prevailing lan
guage in hell, forget that the souls of the
Spaniards are no doubt as precious in the
sight of the Almighty as the souls of
Americans and that in spite of our differ
ences and hatreds, we are all children of
the one great Father.
The multi-milionaires of the country
will show their patriotism, if the occasion
requires, by buying $250,000,000 worth of 4
•pi r cent war bonds. We can always count
on just such patriotic acts from that
source, and such patriotism invariably has
its reward—in the enhanced value of the
bonds and in the interest returns there
from.
Insurance Rates.
The Chamber of Commerce can render
the merchants and property-owners of Ma
con a great service by- taking up the fight
for lower insurance rates. The present
rates, it seems to us, are simply preposter
ous. and it should be no difficult matter
to bring the Southern Tariff Asociation to
its senses.
The rates are certainly not based on
local losses, nor upon any defect in our fire
department; on the contrary, it would
seem that •Macon is being made to pay for
losses sustained elsewhere.
We think a thorough investigation of the
matter and a vigorous effort to secure just
rates will have the desired effect. And
the ■Chamber of Commerce can in no way
give better evidence of its resurrection
than 'by making this fight in behalf of the
business interests of Macon.
The latest is from an Ohio exchange as
follows: “Our ship has been sunk and our
flag trailed in the ‘dust’ of the ocean."
Next Months' Elections in Spam.
Spain will hold an election for members
cf the cortes on April 3. It is understoed
that this* is merely a perfunctory proced
ure before the assemblage of new parlia
ment. Ihe jwopie have little to do with
their choice of legislator®. Sagasta sum
moss the leader of the oppcs.tion and tells
h’ n how many members the Conserva
tives are to have- a; ’. a lis-t of candidates
ia furnished-by that party's leader and the
•’...-tricts from Which th- y shall come. The
program thus fixed up is carried out to
the letter. Liberals of all shades will be
accredited with 275 scabs; ConservatiViS,
70; Carlists. 10. This w:ll reverse the
present complexion of the cortts, and that
is what the liberal ministry wishes to do,
as indicating -a popular support of the Sa
gasta government.
A singular admit-: cf the increasing
trade of the United States with India is
made by the Edinburgh Scotsman. Ac
cording to that journal, American cotton
cloth has supplanted the goods of Man
chester In the died Sea and Somaliland;
while the use of American kerosene in
I--"-: has become enormous and recent
contracts have been made with American
manufacturers for 25,000 tons of steel rails.
Rut the total imports of India from the
United States last year, $15,750,000, were
exceeded five times by the hides, jute and
miscellaneous goods that India sent to the
United States.
The Augusta Herald ari.-s, and tfie’Rome
Tribune repeats the question: “is Colonel
U •ndler,willing to’have other letters pub-
I hed.’ To which the Atlanta Comnaer
• ial makes answer: "We don’t know how
Colonel Candler feels abac It, but of this
cne thing we arc certain that if the Tri
bune or the Herald have any letter or Rt
f'that, would damage Candler, they
v.ould not hesitate to publish them with
out the hypocritical farce of asking.
..tilher of thes papers has the slightest
idin of political fairness or of common
propriety.”
'i'!:’ Athens Panner says: “Mr. Knowles,
of the Rome Tribune, accompanied -Gov
ernor Atkinson on his Mexican trip and
then published the Meycrhardt letter. Mr.
Phtnlzy, of the Augusta Herald, accom
panied Governor Atkinson on his. Mexican
tri]) and his paper then published the
Hight letter. Mr. Stovall, of the Savannah
Press, accompanied Governor Atkinson on
bis Mexican trip and as his paper is
: tinst Colonel Candler, the question now
is, what will that paper publish?”
One hundred, million pounds of public
documents ate issued every year. This
nakes employment for paper manufac
turers and printers.
Literary Notes.
The March number of the Cosmopolitan
has many first-class articles. Among other
things there ’is “A Story cf the Cuban
War,” by Richard Harding Lavis, and an
article entitled, "The Dreyfus Mystery,"
by Thornton C. Crawford, "The Emperior
William as a Huntsman,” by Edward
Breck, “The- Flight of an Empress,” by
Belle Gray Taylor, and many other arti
cles of merit. The Cosmopolitan, Irving
ton, ’New York.
“Across t'he Everglades, a Canoe Jour
ney of Exploration,” by Hugh L. Wil
loughby, J. B. Lippincott Company, 715-
i 17 Market street, Philadelphia, publish
ers. Cloth, $2. This is a .charming ac
count of a journey through the Everglades
of Florida, together with experiences with
the 'Seminoles and descriptions of the
hunting grounds and fishing places in the
southern part of Florida. The volume
contains many illustrations, and is a book
full of interesting and instructive • mat-
The Mare-h number of McClure’s Maga
zine might be characterized in a Sentence
• s a literary and pictorial exposition of
he heroic- side of real life. A letter from
Nils Strindberg, one of the two men who
have gone no one knows whitiher with
Indree, in the bold endeavor to reach the
North Pole by balloon; Mr. Walter Well
man’s predictions as to the probable fate
of the Andree party; Herbert E. Ham
blen's account of his own adventures as
t locomotive engineer; and a brue story
of t'he ingenuity and bravery of a Chicago
fireman—all dealing with matters of fact,
are still full of the very stuff which the
novelist (too often in vain) beats this
brains for. Charles A. Dana’s personal
recollections of Grant, Sherman, Gordon
Granger, and "Fighting Joe” Hooker, as
he saw them in the midst of the particu
larly “spectacular military movements”
of the battle of Chattanooga: and of Sec
retary Stanton, as Mr. Dana worked with
him day and night in the War Department
—still further emphasize the ’heroic side
of life. And so. too, does An article by
Mr. Hamlin Garland on the Klondike, .al
though it. aims at nothing mare than set
ting forth in good plain terms new infor
mation regarding the Klondike and the
various ways of reaching it and getting
at its riches. 'This information Mr. Gar
land 'has gathered from the United States
and Canadian government surveyors and
explorers who have returned from the
Klondike within the last month or two to
make their official reports, -and his article
has an obvious practical value, in addi
tion to being extremely Interesting. Such
articles as these offer excellent opportu
nity for illustration; and the opportunity
has been made the most of. Some of them
are illustrated from special photographs:
athers from special life drawings. The
fiction of t'he number comprises two good
?hort stories by new writers and a stir
ring instalment of Anthony Hope’s new
Zenda novel. “Rupert of Hentzau.” The
S. S. McClure Co., 141-155 East 25th street,
New York City.
The American Monthly (Review of Re
views for March publishes three inportant
interviews concerning the an'ti-Jewlsh
crusade in France. The first, with M.
Drumont, the head and front of the anti-
Semitic agitation in France, Is reported
by Valerian Gribayedoff, the well known
Russian journalist and artist, formerly of
Ne'w Vaik. -Robert H. Sherard reports con
versations wi'ta Dr. Max Nordau. the au
thor of “Degeneration.” and with M. Zola:
> these, of course, give the Jews’ side of the
story. The whole series, taken together,
throws much light on what to the Anglo-
Saxon mind seems so incomprehensible—
the real animus of French anti-Semitism,
and especially its bearing on the Drevius
case and Zola's trial in Faris.
* Tho Greatest Discovery Yet.
W. P. Repine, editor Tiskilwa "Chief,”
says: "We won’t keep house without Dr.
King’s New Discovery for consumption,
coughs and colds. Experimented with
many others, but never got the true reme
dy until we used Dr. King’s New Discov
ery. No other remedy can take its place
in our home, as in it we have a certain
and sure cure for coughs, colds, whooping
cough, etc.” It is idle to experiment with
other remedies, even if they are urged on
vou as just as good as Dr. King’s New' Dis
covery. They are not as good, because this
remedy has a record cf cures and besides
is guaranteed. It never fails to satisfy.

There is no ambition nobler than that of
the hardworking farmer. He toils early and
late to secure for himself and his family
that most lastin'.; of fortunes, an allotment
of land, clear of indebtedness. No other
fortune is so secure and permanent. There
are in England families of small farmers,
living in assured comfort and contentment,
upon the lands acquired by their forefathers
boo years ago.
The achievement of the farmer’s ambition
depends a great deal upon the good health
of himself and his family. If they suffer
from bilious attacks and indigestion and do
not promptly resort to the right remedy,
almost any known sickness may be the re
sult. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discov
ery is a speedy cure for biliousness, indi
gestion and the evils that follow them. It
makes the liver active, the digestion per
fect, the appetite keen and the blood pure,
and builds kealthy flesh and muscle. An
honest druggist won’t urge upon you a sub
stitute.
“ I send you my most sincere thanks for the
benefit I have received from your medicine,”
writes Edward D. O’Neill, Esq., of No. 24 Swan
St., Cleveland, Ohio. " I hope yon will publish
the same as it may benefit some other poor suf
ferer who is troubled in a like manner. I was
lai I up with lumbago or sciatic rheumatism. I
could only walk with help of two sticks for nine
weeks. I tried several remedies and doctored
with some of our best physicians and was not
getting relief. So I tried Dr. Pierce’s Golden
Medical Discovery. Alter using two bottles of
it I was all right.”
Dr. Pierce’s Common Sense Medical Ad
viser teaches you all about the home-treat
ment of diseases. It contains 1,008 pages
and 300 illustrations. It used to cost $1.50;
