More Popular Than Ever.
Mr. Bry n's visit to Macou will demon
strate how futile have been the efforts of
certain local agencies to discredit him and
Ilia party. The people of this section are
today more solidly for Bryan and Democ
racy than at any time since the Chicago
convention. They realize more and more
every day that Bryan represents the peo
ple and that through the Democratic
party, with Bryan as its leader, must they
expect relief from the oppression which
they now suffer.
Os course, .those who prefer the gold
standard, with its attendant contraction
of money and centralization of power, will
continue to cry down Bryan and Democ
racy. but sooner or later they will be
forced to accept both or to go, bag and
baggage. Into the Republican party. For
the latter now represents .he gold stand
ard pure and simple. As some writer has
well pnl it, “It has taken the Republi
can party nearly a. quarter of a century
to find an agreed and unambiguous posi
tion on this extremely important question
of the coinage. Today, tile unquestionable
Republican doctrine is that the existing
gold standard must be maintained so far
as any independent action or policy of the
United State:-: is concerned, and this sums
up all that .has any practical significance.
It is true that it still remains a Republi
can tenet that international bimetallism
would be desirable, and ought, if possible,
to be brought about. The efforts made,
however, in 1897, have quite convinced all
well-informed persons, whether gold
standard men or free-silver men, that in
ternational bimetallism cannot now nor
In the immediate future be brought about
any more than European disarmament can
be accomplished. International bimetallism
may therefor:' be said to'have disappeared
wholly from the horizon of things now
practicable."
The issue is now. and must be hence
forth. gold-standard or independent bi
metallism. The Republican party repre
sents the one, the Democratic party the
oilier. Hanna is the prophet of one, Bryan
of the other.
And the people of this country realize
today, more than ever, that their best in
terests He in putting their trusts in the
latter. Bryan's election to the presidency
in 1900 is just as sure as It Is sure tha t the
Republic will stand. Qr If he js not, it 'is
still sure that he and his cause will 1
rise supreme in-the end. The people are
giving more serious thought to present
social and economical conditions than they
have ever given before since they threw
off English rule, and the outcome of it all
will be the overthrow of trusts and mo
nopolies and their most dangerous wea
pon, the single gold standard; the en
thronement of the people once more and
the return of this government to first
principles.
In the Matter of Wesleyan. •
The News the other day catted attention
to the effort being made to raise SIOO,OOO
for 'the improvement and endowment fund
of Wesleyan Female College.
There is much more behind that move
ment than many think. It is so natural to
become absorbed in our ow n affairs and to
magnify the enterprises for which we are
responsible, that we overlook matters of
supreme importance to our city.
The Wesleyan outlook Is cncouarging.
Interest In her plans are increasing. The
■boarding patronage of the year has im
proved. -While this is true, the college is
passing through a crisis. A crisis of great
moment to The history and reason
for t.he existence of Wesleyan is leadership
in the education of women in the South.
It must keep well in advance of the other
female schools of the South or it will fail
to meet its mission. This fact Is kept in
mind -by the president, and faculty, sup
ported by the trustees. Everything has
been done to realize that position compati
ble with the means at. hand. Just here
much embarrassment has been felt. The
college needs larger endowment and should
hove many improvements on the grounds
and in its building. Some have been made
by borrowing money that must be paid
back before anything further can be done.
The management is enterprising, but
■means must be had.
" henever the question is sprung outside
of Macon the question is asked: “What is
Macon doing for the college?" There seems
to be a feeling that Macon does not appre
ciate Wesleyan. This eausees the Metho
dists of the state to hesitate to help her.
M hen < uthbert rallied to Andrew and put
her back.her burned building; when La
Grange puts so much soul into her col
leges. it is perhaps nlausible that the state
should wonder at the apparent coldness in
our city towards Wesleyan.
The News noted an effort to raise 5100 -
«00 for improvement and endowment.
There were two corditions; that Macon g ve
530,000: that nothing was due till all was
subscribed. There is this advantage in this
plan. Something substantial will be done
for Macon and rhe college if the plan suc
ceed--. If the subscriptions are not re
ceived in full no money will be call-1 for
This is an entirely safe way of subscribin’
Your benevolence will not be wasted °
Macon’s prompt and hearty response to
this call would reassure the state of the
public spirit of the town. For it to be an
nounced that Macon had raised $30,090 f or
a great cause of mere thT.n local import
ance would make a proud record.
For the representatives of the church
immediately in control of Wesleyan to go
in every city, town and section of the
state as they -ought to meet the other con
dition of raising the $70,009, would herald
Macon’s fame, enterprise and liberality
most effectively.
Best of all it would insure the success of
the brave plans of its noble management.
Such results to Maoon-oails for effort and
sacrifice on the part of every lover of the
city.
-Come to the help of the college in its
crisis and score another great success to
Macon.
How South Georgia Supports AtkiAjn.
I The News made the statement a few
days ago that Judge Atkinson would not
■ carry very county in bis own district* and
' that he could not count on a score of
i counties out'id- f his district.
As the gubernatorial race shapes up it
• !• becoming more and more rvl<l*Bt that
I Candler -•» ill get a majority of South Geor
: gi - counties. This, it will be rem. mbered,
: was Judge Atkinson's main reliance. It
j was believed by those who induced him to
I sa'T;flc< himself that he cockt carry South
I Gsergla almost solidly, and that Gov-
I rrnor Atkinson could give him the Fourth
!'c.”rict and a few outlying ccuntlts. But
I n« at rof these things will cone, to pass.
Sonin G orgla is not taking to Judge At
kirren with anything like the enthusiasm
tii.i was expected. On the contrary, some
of those counties which he felt sure of will
give Candler a majority. For instance,
there is Telfair and Montgomery and
Toomas and Mitchell and several others
hat are already safe for Candler. The
Telfair Enterprise, the Montgomery Mon
itor, the Thomasville Tinjes-Enterprise
and the other county papers-reflet public
sentiment in those counties, and it is in
no ens" encouraging for Judge Atkinson.
If Judge Atkinson carries twenty-five
counties in Georgia, he will surprise us,
and, no doubt, surprise himself. The fact
i., - Bob B’-rner is running a better race
than Governor Atkinson's namesake and
politic! legatee. Verily the name of
Atkinson is one ta «neer with.
Street Car Fenders,
Tho following short story from the At
lanta Commercial contains a moral by
which the street ear people of Macon might
profit:
"The usefulness of the fenders recently
placed on the electric cars of the city was
illustrated in a very humorous maner this
morning.
“A Consolidated car was running on
Whitehall street and .when- pear Mitchell
a litle back dog started across the street
in front of the car at break neck speed. He
wars not rapid enough, however, to escap
the ear and when in the middle of the track
the fender of the car gently picked him up.
“The car did not stop and the dog lay
de vn on the fender almost too frightened
to move. The car stoped at Hun-ter street
and the little black canine leaped from his
life saver and disapeared among the throng
on Whitehall street. .
‘"rhe dog was not injured in the least. A
large crowd witnessed trie successful oper
ation if the fender and all pronounced- it to
be invaluable."
So even a dog was .saved by the fenders
in Atlanta, while within the last twelve
months two lives have been lost in Maoon
for lack of fenders on the street cars.
If that dog had been a baby and that
street ear had not been equiped with fen
ders the baby would have been killed.
Lesson in National Dignity.
It is well for the American people to
remember —and to emphasize in remem
brance—that inflammatory utterances are
not confined to one side. An accurate
translation of the publications appearing
in the Spanish press would clearly con
firm this. Then, again, how admirable in
dignity -and discretion has been the de
portment of our executive, army and navy
officials. How superbly admirable by
contrast! De Lome demonstarted his assi
nimity. Lieutenant Commander So-bral
became so loud-mouthed and insulting
that his government was forced to take
cognizance of his Vaporings. And now
comes Lieutenant Palmo. This blusterer
and braggadocio is a fair example of Cas
tilian insolence. His shoulders will next
feel the Madrid whip. Mark the latest pub
lished utterance of this son of Mars:
“After we lay two or three of their largest
cities in ruins, this ought to bring 'the
money-loving Yankees to our terms.”
As all of gentleness does not spring
from the enervations of refinement, so all
that is discreet and dignified is not the
exclusive possession of effete mouarchies.
Ex-Senator Ingalls, who hasn’t grown
rich as a Washington correspondent, has
been on a short lecture tour in the South,
and has just started to fill a few engage
ments of the same sort in Indiana and
Wisconsin. The career of Mr. Ingalls
shows how often we guess wrong. When
be was in -he Senate the bare announce
ment that he would make a speech was
sufficient io fill the galleries, and it was
constantly said that he could speedily
make a fortune by leaving the Senate and
becoming a lecturer. Well, he left the
Senate, net. on account of those bright pre
dictions, but because of the votes of an
adverse majority of the Kansas legisla
ture, and although he has made several
determined attacks upon the lecture plat
form, the lecture managers do not class
him a rival of either Ingersoll or Tal
mage. That he has great ability Is un
questioned, but he has not yet found a
profitable way to use it.
Says the Augusta Herald: “J. H. Blount,
of Macon, who has been engaged on his
new book, "Georgia Forms end Practice,"
for the last two years, 'has just sent the
last pages to press. The last session of the
legislature endorsed this work, as also the
supreme court and the Bas Association.
Mr. Blouiit, however, had quite a struggle
in getting the bill through tha House
which authorized the governor to provide
the justices and county authorities with
the work. He has now sent out his grate
ful thanks in the shape of a neat little
souvenir to those members of !>he House
and Senate who voted for his new book.
The public are anxiously awaiting the ap
pearance of his new book.”
If It were not for the fact that we are
now gnawing the file with Spain, ihe ap
pearance of the English flag on .American
territory twelve miles above Skaguay
would be sufficient to start the dcgS of war
howling- again.
The Griffin News and Sun seems to have
veered over to Berner. Glessner started
out to walk the straight and narrow path
with Candler, but Jie fell by the wayside
and since that time he has been wander
ing about like a lost sheep.
-Does a vote for Judge Atkinson carry
with it an endorsement of his Ocala plat
form ideas. It will be remembered that the
judge himself—in his eagerness to secure
votes in his congressional race—endorsed
the Ocala platform.
——. —•
■ How Is this for a starter? Candler will
carry Fulton. Bibb, Chatham and Rich
mond, each having six votes in' the con
vention. This is twenty-four votes, or al
most as many as Judge Atkinson will get
in all.
The Lumpkin Independent says that Air.
Atkinson will withdraw from the guber
natorial race and it will narrow down to
Messrs. Candler and Berner, and that Mr.
Berner will win out easily.
The aspersions cast upon us by foreign
ers, after leaving our shores with pockets
full of money, show us what comes of try
ing to make lions out of asses, thinks the
Indianapolis News.

The Wisdom of the Fathers. ’
THE WISDOM OF THE FATHERS.
| While the yellow journals are interview- ‘
iiig the kings and queens and ministers of
Eurcpc on the situation, the New York Sun
a.= k‘ I advi-e from the fathers of the na
j tion with this result:
"An efficient preparation for war can
aloi.e insure ps-ace."—John Adams.
i “Great is the guilt of unnecessary war."
; —Thomas Jefferson.
“I abhor war and view it as the greatest
j scourge of mankind.” —Thomas Jtff?rson.
"The sword once drawn, full justice be
j dr,. ‘lndemnification for toe past and
| security for the future’ should be palntid
. on our banners."—Thomas Jefferson.
“Where wrongs are pressed because it
; is believed they will be borne, resistance
1 st omes morality.”—Thomas Jefferson.
“The power cf making war often pre- I
j vents it.” —Thomas Jefferson.
I think it our interest to punish the I
first insult: because an insult unpunished ■
is the parent of many others.”—Thomas i
Jefferson.
“The justest dispositions possible in our- !
selves will not secure us against war. It '
would be- necessary that all ether nations '
were just also. Justice, indeed, on our i
part, will save us from those wars which :
v.ouid have been produced by a contrary I
policy. But how can we prevent those I
produced by tho wrongs of other nations?
£y putting ourselves in a position to pun
ish them. Weakness provokes insult and
injury, while a condition to punish often
prevents them.”—Thomas Jefferson.
“Tae legislature of New York may be
assured that every exertion will be used
to put the United States in the best condi
tion cf defense, that we may be fully pre
pared to meet the dangers menacing the
peace of our country.”—Thomas Jefferson.
“The most successful war seldom pays
for its losses.”—Thomas Jefferson.
“The evil, of war are great in their en
durance and have a long reckoning for
ages to come.”—Thomas Jefferson.
‘ The general desire to preserve our
country from the calamities and ravages
of war by cultivating a disposition, and
pursuing a conduct coueiliatoy and
friendly to all nations, has been sincerely
entertained and faithfully fol o-red. It -was
dictated by the principles of humanity, the
precedents of the Gospel, and the general
will of society itself.” —Thomas Jefferson.
‘‘An universal and perpetual peace, it is
to be feared, will never exist but in the
imaginations of visionary philosophers, or
in the breasts of benevolent enthusiasts.”
—James Madison.
Y ars may be divided into classes;
one flowing from 4he mere will of the
government, the other according with the
wil of society itself.”—James Madison.
“To do justice to alii nations; to seek it
from them by peaceable means and in pre
ference to war; and to confide in this pol
icy for avoiding that extremity, or secur
ing the blessing of peace when forced upon
us, is the only course of which the United
States can never have reason to repent.”
James Madison.
The Greatest Discovery Yet.
W. P. Repine, editor Tiskilwa “Chief,”
tayst. “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
er}'. No other remedy can take its place
in our home, as in it we have a certain
and sure cure for coughs, colds, whooping
.‘otigh, etc.” It is idle to experiment with
ather remedies, even if they are urged on
you as just as good as Dr. King’s New Dis
:overy. They are not as good, because this
remedy has a record of cures and besides
is guaranteed. It never fails to satisfy.

NO SURPRISE
To Those Who Have Watched the Postoffice
Fight.
NO SURPRISE—
The announcement tha: Mr, Hertz will
■ serve out the full term of four years as
, postmaster at Macon is not a surprise to
I the Democrats who have watched the fuss
between the liily white Republicans and
the old liners er veterans, who have borne
the burden and heat of the day.
It has been evident that President Mc-
Kinley had ‘been between Old Nick and the
\ deep bdwe sea, without knowing exactly
I which was old Nick and which the sea.
Mr. Hertz was a good cross between the
| two, so M-Kinley really takes refuge be
i hi:.J that g-ntls man’s not too voluminous
coat tail.
The gentlemen who have been ’seiam
bling for the job are naturally somewhat
chagrined and are not inclined to accept
the reports as to McKinley’s decision as
correct. Os course an effort will be-made
