This refers not only to the charming girl in the above cut, but to several other •things. Uncle Sam, for instance, is ready ■to conquer Spain to secure Cuban freedom. And, to bring the subject nearer bomb, all • the live merchants in Macon are showing their spring stocks, ready to obtain peace ful conquest of the patronage of the public through the bargains they offer. To do this, they must advertise —and they must advertise in The News, for it is the paper which reaches the homes and » families of the people who buy. Its cir culation in Macon and suburbs is beyond that of any other Macon daily. Hence it is the best advertising medium in the city. This is true of The News every day in the wiek, but it is especially true of the Easter News—which will go into nearly 3,000 Maeon homes next Saturday, carry ing Raster bargain news to the women who •have the Easter buying to do. Not’only will the tCastei* News be the guide for Easter -shoppers, but it will by * far. be thv handsomest special issue ever sent out of this office. It will Ije replete ■with matter of interest to women as well as to the public generally. It affords the merchants of Maeon a rare op [Kiri unity to reach the greatest number of buyers at the least cost. This is a business proposition which no live merchant can afford to ignore. > Cuba Will Be Free. President 'McKinley’s ultimatum to Spain has but. one meaning—. Cuba must and shall be free. No matter what action Spain may take, no matter whether the issue is settled •with or without war, the result must be the same—Cuba will be free. This •government cannot and will not back down, now that she has made ■such emphatic demands. To make her attitude the more certain, public opinion upholds the president, and the entire resources of this country will be expended, if necessa ry. to enforce his demands. The end for which the little handful of Cuban patriots have held out so long has •been accomplished. Os themselves they could accomplish nothing, except prolong the barbarous struggle that has already sickened the civilized world. But with the aid of the United States, their indepen dence is already practically accomplished. It may cost a struggle, some thousands of lixvs, perhaps, but it -must and will come. Uncle Sam lias said it. and Uncle Sam usually makes his words good. Whether or not Cuba will ever become a part of this country cannot now be pre dicted. At present the best public and official sentiment is against it. But time may make the proposition more feasible, and w<. may yet add anothei star to our i.ati • s banner, or else take in Cuba on a territorial basis. AU this, however, must depenff upon the final settlement of the struggle, which can have but one out-’ come. It Fools Nobody. The Kansas City Times wfurns the Dem acrats against the insidious proposition of changing the ratio as a means of harmon izing the gold idiots. It says: ‘ The business interests of the people of the I nited States require a very much larger volume of metallic redemption money, but if it is given to them it would be too large for the manipulators of the money marekts to control, and that is the head ami front of the conspiracy which caused silver to be demonetized in 187;, and which is still the basis of opposition • to putting silver on a parity with gold in our monetary system. The proposition to change the existing ratio is a Wall street scheme to breed dissension in the ranks of the friends of bimetallism: but it is sin cerely to be hoped that they will continue to stand shoulder to shoulder for the pres ent legal ratio of 16 to 1.” Anent the action of three Southern states in practically disfranchising the negroes and the conditions which brought about this course, the Washington Post well says: “There are few more impres sive lessons in history than the story of . •the Fifteenth Amendment and what has come of it. It is full of instruction to statesmen and rich in suggestion to moral ists. But a decent regard for truth de- j inahds denial now. or at any future time, of the assertion that immediate enfran- I chisement was a necessity or was anything else than an awful mistake, a mistake •which honest history may set down as a crime.” The efforts of some of the papet> to make Mr. Candler out a railroad and cor poration candidate fall pitifully flat, notes the Americus Herald. The Tactics of a Demagogue. A demagogue, according to the accepted definition, is "an orator or leader who i seeks to influence the people by pandering j u> their prejudices or passions." [ It must be admitted -by all those who ■ have watched the Hon. R. L. Berner’s I course in the present gubernatorial race, : that erstwhile conservative and dignified I young state-man, is measuring fully up -to | the definition. And pity ’(is "tin true. For he is a man ' ; of ability, of force and of sufficient cnar ! arter to have justified the tope that he I would rise above the level of demagogy, i But, perhaps, Mr. (Berner has been car ! ri«d away by his ambition; he is impatient . I for jmlitical recognition, and he is now ■ willing to seek it at any price. Ac do not mean by this that Mr. Ber ' ner is demagogic in his reference to the ■ evils ot railroad consolidation and mo • noixily, for we heartily agree with him j that a stop must be pat to those evils. But i we do mean that he is demagogic in his I utt*-r.ince.-:, and in bis references to,the at titude of the other candidates in this race i —particularly Colonel Candles’, whom he rightly regards as his most formidable op ponent. Mr. Berner is playing the part of a dem agogue when he seeks to arraign Colonel Candler for his past connection with a rail road corporation, when he knows that the part he took in the contraction of the Gainesville and Northern Railroad was Justly regarded as a boon .to that section, and, therefore, to the state .at large. And y- t he would try to make the man whose money and energy were spent in an ef fort to upbuild his section and to benefit iris state appear as an enemy of the peo ple on that account. And he is demagogic when he tries to make it appear that the railroads are now behind Colonel Candler's candidacy, for ho knows as well as any other man that this rugged, honest Georgian is as free from corporate or other influences as any man in Georgia. But Mr. Berner evidtfhtly considers it necessary for him to attract public atten tion in this way. He has made the high est bid that any candidate ever made for a nomination, an-d he is obliged to appeal to the passions and prejudices of the peo ple in order to keep his little hobby in working order. It is all he's got to ride on In this race, and he is compelled to make a lot of noise in order to attract at tention. His speech at Cochran yesterday, for in stance, while pyrotechnic and demagogic enough to arouse a lot of tem.nrary en thusiasm. was not a speech that will in fluence sensible, conservative men when they come to vote. In this speech Mr. Berner, fidlowing out his demagoric policy, referred in a dramatic way to a recent edi torial in The News, which stated Jhat Colonel Candler had pot! lively' refused to treat with certain politicians in 'this state who are known to represent railroad in terests. Mr. Berner dramatically called for the proof nf this assertloq, and evidently sought 'to *use the statement to show that the railroads at least had designs on Colonel Candler. And so, no doubt, they have. And upon Mr. Berner and Judge Atkinson, too. as for that matter. And upon every other public man In Georgia as well. Indeed, it is the policy of 'the railroad consolidators ami monopolists who are now operating In this state in clear violation of the con stitution to get control of every man who wields a certain amount of political power. But it is necessarily a difficult matter to furnish positive proof of their motives- — for the reason that, to be successful, they must work with great caution. It follows, therefore, that no definite propositions were ever made to Colonel Candler or to anyone else, and Mr. Berner knows as well as anyone that The News did not in fer as much. We simply meant, and so we were re,- iiably informed, that Colonel Candler was invited to take part in n certain negotia tion, participation in which would have given the railroads an opportunity to judge of his attitude. But his rugged honesty would not allow him to become contaminated by any such influences, and he promptly and emphati cally declined to treat with the gentlemen whom he had reason to believe were rail road commissioners. Ami this is all there is to the story as we know it. Were Mr. Berner more of a statesman and less a demagogue he would have seen fit to applaud this action on Colonel Cand ler's part, rather than attempt to use it against him. In his heart—if he is sin cere in his utterances-—he cannot fail to admire the man who has persistently fought shy of such influences, and yet with his mouth he arraigns this man with out evidence and without reason. Mr. Berner places a high price upon the governorship. He is willing to sacrifice his past renutation for fairness and con servatism, for commendable statesmanship in his mad effort to secure the nomination, even by resorting to the most despisable form of demagogy. \\ e think it would have been more to Mr. Berner s credit, and more promising of his political future, had he simply wait ed. rather than make the bid he is now making in order to gratify his ambition. Colonel Candler retires from the office of Secretary of state today and Hon. Wm. Clifton takes charge. But Judge Atkinson still freezes onto his railroad commission ersliip. Judge, the people are likely to tell you that one public office is enough for one man. Senator Bacon is displaying statesman ship that is appreciated by his Georgia friends, remarks the Marietta Journal. SPECIAL NOTICE TO CITIZENS OF BELLEVUE.

Franklin Careny's Lecture for Benefit of Pansy Circle. Mr. J. Frank Caveny is a well known cartoonist and political caricaturist. He will lecture at the Academy of Music for the benefit of the Pansy Circle. Some years ago, at the suggestion of Frank Beard, Mr. Caveny began to 'give a series of public cntcitainments. His re ceptions were in the nature of ovations. From that time on lie has been entertain ing large audiences from East to West. He is very happily styled "The Young Frank Beard.” Mr. Caveny has a rich or atoned voice, a fine figure and fingers that move as if by magic. He holds his audience spell-bound with the pictures until they break forth into laughter or exclamations of wonder an'd delight. Mr. Caveny is not oply a cartoonist of rare attainment, but as an orator of abill'ty ■and as a 'humorist he has few equals. •With these characteristics he not only instructs but highly entertains his au diences, as round after round of applause will testify. His entertainments must not be compar ed with the “chalk talk” frequently seen. He presents a very high class of artistic entertainments. The beautiful and comic pictures are usually presented to the committee as sou venirs of the occasion. When you hear him you at once compare him with iNast, French and Beard, and then say: “He beats them all.” ON HIS HEELS. • * Nordhaus Making a Personal Canvass of Catholic Commanderies.

Mr. Harrison’s condition was becoming very serious, when he commenced to P. P. P., Lippman’s Great Remedy. Its effects- were marked and immediate. Read his letter to us. Its earnestness is apparent: .Gentlemen: For the benefit of all suffering from dyspepsia and general debility I beg to submit njy testimonial as to the efficacy of your P. P. P., Lipp m?m s Great Remedy, as a positive cure for all the distressing' complaints from which 1 suffered. My system was also full of Malaria and my condition was growing very serious; I had no appetite, was losing strength and was completely broken down in health, but now my health is completely restored, and I can eat like a field laborer, without the slightest fear of any serious results. I take great pleasure in telling the world that P. P. i‘. did the grand work of restoring me to my accustomed health. Yours truly, JAMES S. HARRISON, Cleveland, O.
