A Possible Obligation.
An interesting legal point has arisen in
connection with the proposition to inter
vene in Cuba without recognizing the in
dependence of the island.
The l< gal opinion is expressed, that if
the United Stales should intervene for the
purpose of establishing the freedom of
Cuba, at the same time recognizing that
at the time of intervent ion the .island is
still a Spanish province, this might Incur
a moral obligation for the bonds issued by
Spain, for which the revenues of the island
were pledged.
After the war, if this government was
In the attitude of having itself deprived
Spain of its possession, Spain would prob
ably lay the matter gefore the powers, and
under international law it is a question
whether the United States might not be
held responsible for such bonds as are held
by foreign governments or their citizens.
For this reason careful attention is being
given to the form of the resolutions to be
adopt, d by congress.
A consulting committee of congress,
composed of leading lawyers, has been
searching for precedents in international
law, ami have come to the conclusion that
great care must be taken to so frame the
resolutions that if the President's desire
to avoid the recognition of the present
Cuban Republic is yielded to, this govern
ment will not he put in the attitude of de
priving Spain of a possession, the revenues
of which have been pledged to foreign
creditors of Spain.
To meet this point it is proposed that
the resolutions reported shall declare that
Cuba is tn a state of belligerency without
government, that Spain has lost her
sovereignty over the island, and that the
government of the United States shall in
tervene for the purpose of enabling the
citizens of the island to establish a stable
form of government, capable of restoring
and maintaining law and order.
War may be “hell," but hanging on the
ragged edge of war for months is no sum
mer pastime, and a short stay in the lower
regions is preferable to endless suffering
in purgatory, says the Louisville Post.
The Volunteer Troops.
In the event of war it is interesting to
know what disposition will be made of the
state or volunteer troops. It is a matter
that is at present engaging the attention
of the Georgia military, in view of the tact
that the troops of this state may be called
to the front at any time. At present the
Georgia troops, both white and colored,
nuinbre about 4,500, including the naval
reserves. A recent order, however, calls
for 'the enlistment of more men, and the
object is to increase the number of troops
In this tate to about 9,000. Os this number
Macon can already contribute about 250,
and with the new enlistments perhaps 500.
In case war is declared it is probable
that the Georgia troops will be ordered
to the coast at once. The idea at present
is to use the greater part of the army to
protect the large cities of the coast. Re
quests have come from Boston, Newport,
New York. Philadelphia, Charleston. Sa
vannah. Brunswick and other coast cities
asking for the garrisons to serve as pro
tection against any threatened invasion
by Spanish troops. It is likely therefore
that this plan may be carried out. Mean
while, the regular army will be mobilized
at Cbicamauga park, ready to move to the
seaport for invasion of Cuba or Porto Rico
at any time.
The President has decided that should it
become necessary to call for volunteers he
will follow the precedent set by Abraham
Lincoln in 1861 and call uih>u the states to
furnish their quota. In this way none of
the states will be discriminated against,
and at the present time he expects to get
a regiment from each state; with the ex
ception of Pennsylvania. New York, Ohio
and Illinois, which will be required to
furnish two. the cities of New York, Phil
adelphia, Cincinnati and Chicago furnish
ing teh extra men in addition to the state
at large. The governors will be allowed
to designate the state militia to be sent
to the front, and these will be inspected
and drafted into service as national volun
teers. because, under the Constitution, the
National Guard, as such, has no existence
outside of the borders of the state.
The manifesto of Rubens makes it very
clear that it would be the height of folly
for the United States to recognize a gov
ernment of which the Cuban junta is the
mouthpiece, sensibly remarks an exchange.
April Our War Month.
Did it ever occur to you that April is the
war month of this Republic? Such is the
ease, and the fact lends significance to the
present complications between this coun
try and Spain. It is a strange coincidence,
and is being commented upon, that April
has witnessed the beginning of all of our
important struggles. It was during the
month of April that the first blow was
struck in the war of the revolution, and
again, nearly a century later, April saw
the first shot in the war between the
states.
Most For Least Money.
Evening News ads bring the best re
sults. Energetic, wide-awake merchants
of Macon will tell you so. Advertising in
Its columns bring the largest returns be
cause it reaches more Macon people than
any other Macon dally. It goes into the
family circle, and reaches the women of
the household as well as the men; and
the fair sex do a large proportion of the
buying.
The News' circulation grows steadily and
permanently.
The News is the people's paper, and the
only daily paper which can cover the city
field for advertisers.
Georgia is not the only state that has a
gubernatorial race on its hands. Twenty
six of the states of the union will elect
governors this year. Those states are New
York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Ala
bama, Colorado, Connecticut,
Idaho, Kansas, Maine, Michigan, Minne
sota, Nebraska, Nevada. New Hampshire,
North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania.
Rhode Island. South Carolina, South Da
kota, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, Wiscon
sin, and Wyoming.
McKinley's Plan of Intervention.
It must be confessed that a key is nec
essary to get at the real meaning of Pres
ident McKinley's plan of intervention, and
JU is gratifying that an explanation has
i been furnished by the Washington corres
pondent of the New York Mail and Ex
i preess, which paper is very Mose to the
; president and is supposed to speak with
some authority. Tins paper states that
the president expects war and that the
outlook is that hostilitier may begin soon.
The president, however, does not expect
war to be declared immediately. It is his
plan first to carry out his policy of inter
vention, which simply embraces immediate
relief to the sufferers in Cuba. It is not
his intention to strike the first blow. It
is the president's desire to carry out his
original intention of humanitarian inter
vention. It was the original intention to
carry the supplies to Cuba in merchant
men, manned by civilian officers and sail
ors. According to the present plan, if the
president's desire is carried out, vast
quantities of supplies are to be carried in
several of the huge merchantmen purchas
ed within the last few days. These ships
will be commanded by officers of the navy,
and manned, in part, by sailors from ths
naw. The ships will be conveyed by a
large fleet.
It is said that several ships from the fleet
at Hampton Roads will be detached to es
cort the transports. The supplies are to
be taken to Mantanzas, which is the scene
of the greatest misery. Accompanying the
provisions will be a Jarge number of phy
sicians. Surgeons and nurses, and a quan
tity of medical supplies. If any attempt
is made by Spain to molest this charitable
expedition, bound on its errand of mercy,
then upon Spain will be the consequences.
The American fleet will protect the mer
chantmen. The supplies will be landed at
Mantanzas unedr the shelter of the Amer
ican guns, and once landed will be pro
taected by American sailors and soldiers.
The ships of the fleet still remaining at
Hampton Roads and a Key West will be
quick to come to the aid of the force at
Mantanzas and the war will be precipitat
ed. Accompanying the ships will be the
transports bringing the regular army,
which is now being concentrated at Chick
amauga, ready to be forwarded to Cuba
in case of necessity.
General Grosvenor said in the house on
Thursday that “the war, if we have war,
will be fought under a Republican ban
ner." Had such declaration been made at
the beginning of hostilities in 1861, Bull
Run would have been the only battle
fought. And “the war, if we have a war,"
and it were possible to confine it to the
Republicans, Spain’s victory would be the
easiest since her first conquest after the
landing of Columbus.
The existence of the so-called junta in
New York has become a nuisance. What
it wants and what it demands should cut
no figure in the policy of our government,
declares the Birmingham .News.
Senators Billy Mason and Morgan will
now paint themselves black and move on
the White House, notes the Houston Post.
Uncle Sam proposes gently but firmly to
inform Spain which century we are living
in at present, observes the Chicago Record.

NO RIGHT IN THE PREMISES.
Americus Times Recorder: "The Macon
Telegraph, in a labored editor al defending
its partisan course in the gubernatorial
campaign, has been guilty, inadvertently,
of making one honest admission. Editor
Pendleton says, and wo quote him ver
batim:
"The Telegraph has no direct interest in
the success of failure of any candidate for
any office in the Democratic primary.”
The Times-Recorder has contended all
along that the Macon Telegraph, because
of its anti-Democratic principles, should
have no voice in the Democratic nomina
tion for governor of Georgia. Editor Pen
dleton has at last acknowledged the right
eousness of the Times-Recorder’s position.

There are now eighty-seven Candler

Captain Tip Harrison is out iu favor of
General Fitzhugh Lee for president.
Colonel Candler will speak Thursday at
Hampton and Saturday at Fitzgerald.
The news from Colquitt is that Candler

Hon. J. L. Boynton is being urged to
stand sorer-election to the legislature in
Calhoun.
Hou. O. N. Starr, of Gordon county, one
of the most prominent members of the
upper house in the last legislature, is be
ing strongly urged to accept thesecrctary
ship of state, to succeed Colonel Bill Clif

The Rome 'Commercial says: "The 'war
news’ that Spencer and Bob went to the
Macon Telegraph’s office on last Thursday
night was not of 'the Spanish brand, ex
cept that it was bushwhacking and treach
erous—the boys were trying to arrange
some way by which they could force the
old warrior to tie to the mine bony they
had assigned him.
At a recent meeting held at Elberton,
th* following new 'Democratic executive

Much interest is being felt in the sena

is Madison's time to put forward a candi

candidates offering for the place is like
ly to meet with opposition in the other
counties, though it is not known to what
extent Once before a candidate was put
forward by Madison, and was defeated by
an Elbert man. The outcome of the race
will be watched with interest.

WEALTH OF STAGE FOLK.
Modjexka Said to Have Gone West to Have
the Sun Melt Her Money,
When May Irwin recently paid $85,000
in cash for some real estate, people were
surprised, for the general impression is
that actors never make any money or save
any. Proctor’s two fine theaters in Al
bany are monuments to enterprise, for bo
started out as an equilibrist.
William A. Brady, the well known
manager and part owner of a New York
theater, started as a super in San Francis
co. Bia wealth is supposed to run up into
the hundred thousands.
William Gillette makes no secret of his
wealth. He made over $50,000 last year.
Melba can draw her check for $200,000
and still would have enough left in hand
not to miss It.
Lillian Russell, who started her career
as a singing saubrotte at Pastor’s theater,
sang her way into a $75,000 house in New-
York.
Perhaps the greatest fortune ever made
by actor or actress is invested in the estates
of Adelina Patti. She is worth today over
$2,000,000, and in the zenith of her career
she was rated at many millions more
Every cent of it was made behind the foot
lights.
Sarah Bernhardt has got so much
money sbo never stops to count it. She
used to pay Sardou more than $50,000 a
year in royalties.
Lily Langtry could lose $500,000 and
still she would be independently rich
Her English racing stables alone are worth
double that amount, and she is also tho
possessor of valuable ground along the
Thames.
Modjeska is living on a farm in Cali
fornia. She is tho richest farmer in the
state. Her neighbors say she went to Cali
fornia to allow the hot western sun to
melt her money.
Jean de Reszko could lose $200,000 and
enjoy a peaceful nap an hour later. His
lands in Russia alone are worth twice
that much. The most prosperous evening
in the great tenor’s career was in this
country. Be sang for 20 minutes at a
Boston concert, and when the proceeds
wore counted up his share figured up just
SIOO a minute.
Joseph Jefferson earned more than
SIOO,OOO in old “Rip Van Winkle’* alone.
His grounds adjoining former President
Cleveland’s in Massachusetts arc worth
twice that amount, and ho owns other
valuable properties throughout the United
States. Jefferson is probably the richest
actor on the American stage today. Ev
ery night he appears in public ho is paid
enough to sustain an average person for
more than a year.—Chicago News.
Troubles of Her Own.
She was a thin eld lady and climbed in
to the car at Kingston with many hesitat
ing turns of the head, and when her big
black valise and other bundles had been
piled upon tho seat in front of her she
pushed back her red striped shawl and
looked out of the window with an air of
contentment. The train had not proceed
ed many miles, however, before she began
to fumblo among herbundies in a nervous
sort of way and suddenly sho broke out in
a most pitiful wail:
“I knowed it! Laws a massa, whut
will I do?’’
The passengers all looked sympathizing
ly toward her. The kindly old man across
the aisle went over to her and said:
“My good woman, what is the trouble?
Can’t wo do anything for you?”
“Oh, man, I can’t bear it! Lot me off!
Stop the train! Stop it quick!”
The old man gave tho bollcord a vigor
ous pull and tho train camo to an abrupt
halt.
“What’s the matter here?” asked the
conductor sharply, as ho camo in from the
forward car.
“Why,” sobbod the old lady, “I plum
forgot thet peck o’ turnips I had sacked
up to take to my son John Henry in At
lanta. ” —Atlanta Journal.

P. P. P., Lippman’s Great Remedy, Saves
a Man From Becoming a Cripple.
Mr. Asa A rrmons, a well -known
citizen of Jacksonville, Florida, was
afflicted by a terrible ulcer. Medical
skill seemed unavailing in stopping the
ravages of the terrible disease. The
leg was swollen and intensely painful,
as the ulcer had eaten its way down
to the very bone. All medicines and
treatments having failed to effect a
cure, the doctors said the leg must
come off. Just when it seemed that
Mr. Ammons would become a disabled
and a erippled man, he tried P. P. P.,
Lippman's Great Remedy, and the re
sult was wonderful.
P. P. P. SAV£S his leg.
“ Jacksonville, Fla., July 1, 1895. —
Two years ago 1 had the worst ulcer
on my leg I ever saw. It had eaten
down to the bone, and my Avhole leg
below my knee, and my foot was
swollen and inflamed. The bone was
swollen and painful, and discharged a
most offensive matter. My physicians
said I had necrosis of the bone, and
my leg would have to come off. At
this stage I commenced to take P. P. P.
and to bathe rny leg with hot castile
soap suds. It began to improve at
once and healed rapidly, and is to-day
a sound and useful leg.
“ I think P. P. P.. Lippman’s Great
Remedy, is all a man cou’-d ask for as
a blood purifier, as 1 have known it to
eure so meterribie eases of blood poi
soning in a remarkably short time.
“ASA AMMONS.”
TERRIBLE BLOOD POISON.
The body covered with sores—two
bottles of P. P. P. made a positive stud
permanent cure. This is only one c'
many thousand similar cases.
Catarrh yields at once to P. P. I’.
That smothered feeling at night, that
heavy feeling in the day can and
should be removed ; P. P. P. will do it
if you only give it a chance.
Indigestion and constipation go hand
in hand. Headaches and total loss of
appetite are the results. Regulate
yourself and tone up your stomach

Monte Carlo and Orris Root.
‘•pear, vvickoil. guy Monte Ca&lo is the
place to get essence of prris root, ” said the
woman just hack from Europe. “It's the
saving grace of that beautiful, disreputa
ble little principality, and when a demure
woman, who would faint at the Idea of
putting a louis on the black or red, is
found at Monto Carlo eho tells you calm
ly that she has come for a supply of orris
violet—and is believed. Sniff this hand
kerchief. Isn’t that delightful? Well, it
only has one drop of tho ossenoo on it.
One drop on the lace of one's frock will
make tlfn whole costume smell like a vio
let. If one have scruples—but what- wom
an ever had scruples where a perfume is
concerned—one can buy Grasse violet at
Nice, and so not even have the name of
the gamblers’ paranise on the bottle. But
the violet which outviolets every other
violet in sweetness and clinging powers is
the little blue flower of A jeardi, found hi
San Remo. Its scent, a triple extract, is
sold in a little cellar shop where the walls
are lined u ith bottles and the air is as
fragrant as spring woods. It costs about
2 francs an ounce.’’—New York Mail and
Express.
