The Pope as a Mediator.
Moved by love of God and his fellow
man. a- naled t»y humane motives, realiz
ing Lie lafulm.'S and horrot of a bloody
wai end bearing hi mind the Divine In
junction. **£lle.ssed are tine p<ac< makers,
there Is in Europe an old man, now past
three wore and ten, but with a brain still
as colossal and active as any of tin pres
ent century, tyho views 'the threatened
conflict between the United Slates and
Spalu as a deplorable affair, and .something
which all humane and Christian people
should endeavor to prevent.
As one far removed from political or
worldly taint, and therefore the most in
dependent and most impartial of arbitra.
tors, this old man ihas, tn a spirit of great
kindness, very courteously offered to act
as mediator between tile two countries,
with a view to preventing useless blood
shed.
Tim master minds of all ages have ever
looked upon the popes as desirable arbi
trators and counselors in matters of this
kjnd. 'Not because of atty right of au
thority possessed by their church nor by
reason of any superiority of the Cath
olic church over any otiher; but because of
the established character and capacity of
the man himself and the advantage which
his position gives him where absolute neu
trality and Impartiality are desired.
If the Methodist, 'Baptist, Episcopal,
iPresbyterlan or any other church had at
its head a universal bishop, the nature of
whose position guaranteed absolute im
partiality as .between the different nations
of the world, then the head of either of
these churches would be as desirable an
arbitrator as the Pope, and it would lie
their Christian duty to offer their ser
vices as peacemaker whenever the oppor
tunity to prevent useless bloodshed pre
sented itself.
For. after all, nations are like individ
uals, and there is not a conscientious
minister of God living, of whatever denom
ination, who would not attempt to prevent
a ditlleulty between two individuals should
the opportunity be presented. If today a
Catholic citizen and a Baptist citizen were
■to become involved in a dispute which
threatened bloodshed, perhaps inurdet,
and a Methodist minister chanced to pass
by. would the latter stop to ask the de
nomination of the <wo combatants before
attempting to make peace between them?
And would the combatants resent his offer
of mediation because he was not of their
denomination. How silly, how unchris
tian-like it would be do stickle over suen
trifles.
(And yet there are a few narrow minds
who see in the Pope's efforts to make
peace between this country and Spain a
serious affront—perhaps even a dark, cun
ning conspiracy against t.he United States.
(How sad that these minds cannot burst
their small shells and widen and expand.
Siow sad that they must forever grovel in
bigotry and malice while other minds soar
in the higher realm of brotherly love and
charity.
Fortunately there are not many of these
former. The majority of people, unless
blinded by passion, can see the wisdom
and justice of any sort of mediation that
promises beneficent results without unnec
essary bloodshed. We dare say there rs
not a true Christian of any denomination,
be he preacher or layman, priest or parish
ioner, who "does not desire a peaceable dis
position of the issue which now disturbs
both this country and Spain. Their reli
gious Instincts, t.he humane feeling which
Christianity begets, all prompt an ab
horrence of war and the consequent sacri
fice of human lives.
To be consistent, therefore, these Chris
•tians, of whatever denomination, would
welcome mediation from whatever source.
And, whether they agree with the tenets
and dogmas of the Catholic church or not.
they cannot fail to recognize in its chief
bishop a man eminently fitted by nature,
'by education, by environments and by di
vine grace, to act as mediator between na
tions, factions or individuals.
This, in our humble judgment, is all
■there is to the Popo's offer of mediation.
It is for the individual to decide whether
he will take issue with God and say "Cur
sed is the peacemaker—if he is the Pope,”
or whether he subscribe to the divine in
junction and say, "Blessed is the peace
maker”—whoever he may be.
If Christianity " teaches forbearance, if
t hristianity teaches peace, if Christianity
is opposed to bloodshed, then Christians,
of whatever denomination, must applaud
the < hrlstian, whoever he may be and of
denomination, who attempts 'to make
peace between his fellow-men.
The autonomy which the Spanish gov
ernment granted to the people of Puerto
Hico is proving a failure through the greed
of the colonial government and the mili
tary, notes the Birmingham News. There
are threats of an uprising in that Island,
and if the United States and Spain become
involved in war and Cuba secures its inde
pendence. Puerto Rico may also become
t The Puerto Rieans "ould. no
doubt, seize the opportunity to rebel and
endeavor to obtain their independence.
Coast Fortifications.
The coast fortification plans, now under
a> by the United States, and which haver
recently been and are now being rapidlv
m r , lXlUiring the fortifying of
104 battery locations in about twen.’v
aeven harbors on the Atlantic, Gulf and
Pacific coast. These will require for equip,
ment 469 heavy guns, with calibre from S
to 1_ inches. There are a half dozen or so
at New York et. al. of sixteen inch bore
the largest guns on the works. There will
be 982 twelve meh mortars ami also 64’
rapid-fire guns of various calbres. Each
heavy gun requires eighteen men for the
proper management. Seventy coast bat
teries are nearing completion, some of
them are in full working order, 232 heavy
guns and 254 mortars, tn all 476 of both
classes. The men will number with rhe
two regiments, 4,585. Artillery men must,
before enlistment, show a good knowledge
of mathematics.
t
The American people, irrespective of
party, consider Mr. McKinley a good man
personally, and Irft to himself would do
what the nation wants, but they have

Echols to the Rescue.
Along with other current war news
.■•omes the report that J. Echols, of Atlan
ta, has suddenly mobilized himself and
moved to Washington for the purpose, ac
cording to his own statement, “of investi
gating the report about the Pope’s offer of
mediation between this country and Spain.
If it D true, says J. Echols, “I shall issue
■a <;r dial to he in mber- of our ord-r”
meaning what is left of the A‘. P. A.
This news >s .encouraging. 1; makes it
quite dear now that war will have to
come, whether the heads of government
want it or not. As long as things were
moving along at a red hot pace in the di
rection of war, J. Ethols was content to
remain inactive and allow things *to run
themsilvez, but a;- -.oon as there was talk
of peace, J. Echols went at once into a
state of eruption. » •
As the head of the organized bigotry and
assinity of the country, J Echols conceiv
ed it his duty to move on Washington
without further delay. Ho left yesterday
and, recording to the railway time tables,
he ought to have increased the freak pop
ulation of Washington at an early hour
this morning From the modest manner
in which he proclaims his mission, it is to
tie supposed he has already called on the
President and Secretary of State, and has
demand! d of them all the facts in con
nection with the Pope’s offer of mediation.
I his i- based on the supposition that he
was not kicked out by the servants before
being allowed to make an of himself
in person
Having finished his investigation, which,
perhaps, revealed the fact that the Pope,
a Christian man, hail sought to use his
office to prevent the useless sacrifice of
lives, J. Ethols is probably now engaged
in Issuing his circular to the members of
his order.
Tn the meantime, the \meri'an people,
the people of Spain an 1 of al! the other
nation:, of Europe anxiously await the out
come of that circular. Upon it depends
peace or war. If J. Eehol- and “the mem
bers of his order” shall throw the weight
of their influence for war, then war is in
deed inevitable.
The prayers and counsel of tens of
thousands of Christians, who wish to see
prevented useless bloodshed and horrors
of war, will count for naught, and .1. Ech
ols and his gang will thrust the nation into
a struggle that will cost thousands of lives
and millions of money. They will do it, if
for no other reason, just to rebuke the
Pope.
But when war comes our citizens, yotuig
men and old, are called to the front, to ex
pose themselves to danger, perhaps death,
in defense of tihe nation, .1. Echols and. his
crowd of patriots will skulk away like-the
cowardly coyotes they arc. For brave men
do not conspire in secret against their fel
lows, nor persecute others Mor remaining
true to the religion which was taught them
at their mother’s knee.
But why pursue the varments further?
They can do no harm. They only snarl
and show their teeth. And in this in
stance J. Echols is like the other little
dog that barked at Lee’s army. And he
will continue to bark and snarl until his
owner,’the devil, calls him off—-and keeps
him from biting the army.
The best advice that can be given to
lhe farmer at this time is to plant bread
stuffs as fast as he can. There is yet a
chance lo save lhe South from a great dial
of suffering in the event of war. The price .
of all breadstuff* will go up at once and
the price of cotton will go down, but this
is planting season and Hie farmer of Geor
gia has the remedy in his own hands. If
he fails to take this advice and there is
war there will be a great deal of suff' ring
till over the country. It is no use making
any bones about this, it is true and it is
no use listening to those who say that
there will lx; no war; they do not kno.w
anything about it; in their case the wish
is simply father to the thought. The
chanw s are that there will be war, and in
that event every pound of food that can be
raised will be so much money saved to the
people of the South. If we care to do it
we can raise breadstuffs to sell but cer
tainly we should raise enough to feed our
selves instead of paying war prices for
everything and that is what it will amount
to. Don't listen to the fellows who tell
jon of what the South did during the last
war. All that experience will not put
bread into the mouths of the children
during the present war.
The hoy's down at Brunswick are making
their v. ills and sharpening their cutlasses.
From the look of the list of the members
of tin- two Companies of naval reserves in
the City by the Sea there will bo nothing
left but the 'Brunswick Riflemen amt a
few of tlie men who are over age to pro
tect the town when the naval reserves
walk out.
Tlie carnival will just come in time to
celebrate the freedom of Cuba. But it will
take some preparation to get it in shape
for a really good carnival and celebration
of the double event, which will include
Macon’s Diamond Jubilee.
Remember what a good carnival the last
one was and don’t forget, that it will take
money to carry out the plans for the car
nival next fall. The work of the finance
committee is the most important of all.
The people of IM.icon are now looking at
maritime news from the Ocmulgee line of
steamers with as much lack of curiosity
as if they had been accustomed to toe
thing all the time.
