That Congressional Scrap.
11 is to be regretted that disorder at
tended yesterday’s session of the House
of Congress, and here in Georgia it will
be especially regretted that a Georgia
* congressman played such an important
part In the riotous demonstration.
Yet, we cannot see how the gentleman
is to be criticised for resenting an unpro
voked insult. It may have been somewhat
untiignilied, it is true, to engage in a fist
fight on the floor of eongri ss, but what is
a man to do when the lighting epithet is
applied to him? Home say he should have*
thalli rigi d the off, rider later, but the day
has come when people who really want to
light no longer send or accept challenges.
So that it would seem there is but one
lime to i(sent the lie, 'and that is as soon
as you can get to the fellow who applies
it..
Congressman Bartlett, no doubt, regrets
the occurrence as much as anyone, but it
would be contrary to human nature, and
.specially contrary to tiie Georgia code of
honor, for a man to remain silent when
this epithet is applied.
Even the Associated Press report of the
affair, necessarily a fair and impartial one,
proves conclusively that Congressman
Barthtt was Insulted by a bully—a man
vastly his physical superior, who. evidently
felt safe in applying such an epithet to the
Georgian. So that the onus of the affair
seems to rest with the Pennsylvanilan.
it must be understood, too, that the pro
vocation for resentment was considerably
aggravated, because of the flagrant man
ner in which the Republicans bad ridden
roughshod over the rights of the minority.
Under Czar Reed’s shameless rollings they
■wore hardly given a voice In the House
deliberations, and It was this outrageous
treatment of the minority that led up to
the unfortunate clash. It is only strange
that the Democrats have submitted so
long.
Though lamenting the occurrence, Geor
gians will have no fault to find with Con
gressman Bartlett for defending his char
acter as promptly and vigorously as pos
sible.
If every one could have his own way
this world wouldn’t be worth living in.
War No Worse Than Suspense.
• The News has never been a shouter for
war. On the contrary, we have persistent
ly refused to become excited or to con
found patriotism with noisy demonstra
tions. We have rather relied on the wis
dom, justice and moderation of our publie
officials to settle this Cuban affair without
bloodshed. While insisting upon the right
of this government to put a stop to the
butchery and cruelties that have so in
censed our people and which are* s'till oc
curring right at. our doors, we have hoped
that this could be done peaceably.
But it begins to seem that even war
would bo better than this suspense. The
people of this country are now suffering
almost as much from the latter as they
would suffer from the' former. Business
is disturbed, capital in timid, our people
are demoralized.
There is more excuse for an immediate
declaration of war than there is for the
dlliatory policy now being pursued by the
administration. If war should come at
once, then our people would be able to ad
just their affairs accordingly, but as it is,
they are utterly unable to plan for the fu
ture, consequently business is almost at
a standstill.
Whatever is to be done, therefore, should
be done quickly. We are losing valuable
time as one of the parties 'to the impend
ing conflict, while our people are wasting
valuable time as parties at interest.
For mor.' than two years this Cuban
matter has disturbed and practically de
moralized our people. This in itself is a
sufficient answer to Spain’s denial of our
rights in the premises. If it is true that
the struggle in Cuba, either directly or in
directly affects injuriously American in
terests. then we have a right to put an
end to this condition of affairs. This is
the unwritten law of nations, and it is
right to observe it.
But the President and Congress have
no right to dilly-dally any longer.' Peace,
to be sure, is greatly to bo desired, but it
will be a costly peace that is bought at the
price we are now paying—business stag
nation, industrial lethargy, financial dis
turbance and general demoralization.
The authorities at Washington should
either shoot or give up the gun.
The Telegraph’s headline artist is in
danger of losing his job. “Bryan Caught
the Crowd" is the treasonable headline to
an article in this morning's Telegraph re
ferring to the Democratic leader's speech
at Washington.
Now, Will He Act?
Surely the President cannot complain at
Congress for any lack of co-operation in
his Cuban policy. Instead of taking the
matter out of the President’s hands. Con
gress will leave it to him to manage as he
sees fit, backed, however, by the emphatic
declaration that Congress favors immediate
intervention, and offers the President the
armed forces of the country to back up
thin dtmaud.
The question is now pertinent, therefore
what will he do with it? Will he now act
or will he continue his policy of delav?
His supporters declare that he will act at
once. It is stated on authority that the
President will not postpone his action anv
length of time.
His plan, as already outlined, is still to
carry food to the sufferers, but to do. so in
vessels of our navy, accompanied by sol
diers, and have this relief distributed by
the armed forces of the United States. In
other words, it is said, he is going to take
possession of the island of Cuba to restore
peace and stop hostilities.
It is stated, also, that the President in
tends to act immediately and even con
tended that it was necessary for Congress
to insert this word in the resolution. He
Intends to act. it is asserted, just as soon
as he can make the necessary arrange
ments, select his armed forces and sup
plies. If Spain objects to this, and puts
ob'-tructions in the way, or interferes, she
will be the aggressor, and the President
will then send the full naval and army
forces to the island.
Florida as a War Center.
When war comes—for It is inevitably
approaching—Florida will become the out
post of either offensive or defensive ac
tion on the part of the United'States.
Florida will be the Virginia of the cam
paign in a measure. Key West is already
the storm centre, and the strategic value
of the Florida east coast as a base of sup
' ply and for the movement of troops as
sumes an importance which should at
once engage the attention of the govern
ment.
points out the New York Mail and Ex
points out the New York Mill and Ex
press, that by the liberality and far-sight
ed genius of Henry M. Flagler, not only
have the sand dunes and hammocks of
East Florida been made to blossom as the
rose, but by bis unaidc-d enterprise a
railroad has been built to a point about
160 miles from Key West, and a harbor
created >n Biscayne bay, where no ade
quate harbor formerly existed. The exten
sion of the Florida East Coast Railway tc
Miami last year not only created the thriv
ing little city of Miami, but necessitated
the cutting of a channel from the railway
terminus for the development of Ameri
can commerce at that port and the facili
tation of travel. A million dollars has been
expended by Mr. Flagler in this enormous
enterprise, with the result that in a few
days a twelve foot channel will be opfned
through Biscayne bay, and the new ship
now plying between Miami and Nassau
will be able to come to her pier at Miami.
Should it become necessary to move
troops and supplies rapidly to the south,
Mr. Flagler's railway and open harbor in
the Biscayne would be Immediately avail
able. At the same time the government
should, without delay, assume the task
of carrying forward the’ work which Mr.
Flagler has so well begun. The channel
is deep enough for the Miany and for ves
sels of equal draught, but for government
use it should be at least twenty-six feet.
This great natural harbor in the Biscaybe
is the only one between Key West and
Jacksonville capable of improvement for
use by war vessels, and of defense from
attack. No better use could be made of
the president’s emergency fund than to
devote a portion of it to the prompt devel
opment and defease of a harbor which is
bound to play an important part in any
conflict which may be undertaken in Cu
ban and Floridan waters.
If it is worth knowing The News tells
you about it just fifteen hours ahead of
any other Macon paper.
Rehd’s Methods.
The high-handed measures adopted by
Sneaker Reed to prevent deliberation on
the Cuban question, while only in keeping
with his past record, are more than ever
•alculated to incense the country and
arouse the ire of those congressmen who
object to fifing made the puppets of the
' peaker at a time like tins.
Speaker Reed belongs to that part of
the House or Representative's which de
sires 'to put off and postpone at a great
length all decisive action on the Presi
dent's message concerning Spain. Espe
cially is this so if members of Congress
seek to substitute the conclusions of the
Hones for those of Mr. McKinley. If the
proposed action had met with Reed’s ap
proval it would have gone through the
House without a hitch or suggestion of
delay.
But when amendments and changes of
procedure are sought to be substituted in
the wisdom of Congress, then it is that
Speakr Reed does all in his power to
prevent a full and free discussion in the
House before action is taken in all those
eases, where his will is being carried out.
Mr. Recd “thanks God that the House is
not a deliberative body.”
It is such outrageous conduct on the part
of the speaker that led to the unfortunate
scene in the House yesterday, and the
speaker himself is more to blame for the
affair than anyone dlse.
The Augusta Chronicle has the follow
ing to say of Hon. O. B. Stevens’s recent
visit to that city: “Senator O. B. Stevens,
rpn<lhYdtv for v cmmloclonrr of c ppri ovil til i’o,
spent yesterday in Augusta, shaking hands
with the voters of Richmond, and letting
them know that he was in the race and
wanted Richmond's support. If he is as
smooth a farmer as he is a politician his
success would put a good man in offee. It
was interesting to note the ease with
which he fraternized with the most diver
gent elemt.ns of local polities yesterday,
turning from one to the other, and pleas
ing both, with all the skill of a diplomat
and the cordiality of a candidate. Senator
Stevens made a good impression in Au
gusta. The contest between him and Com
missioner Nesbitt for Richmond’s vote will
be a spirited fight.”
Says the Dawson News: Hon. O. B.
Stevens has, togeher with the candidates
for other state offices, been invited by the
Democratic executive committee of Hab
ersham to address the people of that coun
ty. If the Habershamites want to hear
how to raise hog and hominy plentifully,
make the cotton fields yield abundantly,
and raise big turnips and yellow yams,
their invitation has been wisely extended.
The admirers of President Andrew Jack
son think he must have squirmed in his
grave at being made to stand sponsor for
that message, remarks the Augusta
Chronicle.

Ole Hanson, tin who lives out
north of Denver, has fouut* out by acei
dent how it is that a tin clock or watch
painted and empl.cd a . a watchmaker's
sign Always gives the limo of day 8:18
o’clock, or the tour and minute of Lin
coln's assassination. For the last he
has been regulating h’s Elgin frMnu of
these silent sentinels on Sixteenth street,
and when ho arrived the other roorntog he
looked at the sign and then nt liiiAvatcb.
There \v.:s a discrepancy somewhere, to he
called John VaUgban, the assistant city
clerk, who happened to be passing on tb'c
way to his office.
“Say, master yentlemun,” he Eccosted
the clerk, “Aye want to ask yo’ ’bout
fconiet’lng. “
“All right,” was th.) reply. “What i
it?”
“Vai, Ayo tank Ayosk.il bane cracker
jack bay Yertisalcin. Ayo leaf mac home
tan wiles onion t’o country bay twanty
minutes eft-cr 8, an Aye get en town ai
teen minutes citer 8. Ho yo’ maken out
des out?"
“Ob, it’s pretty near It) o’clock now.”
“Bot das vatch e.op .efer jewelry store
says es kane aiteeu minutes eiter 8.”.
“Yes, but that s a tin sign—there are
no works in it.”
“Es das truce?”
“Os course. Can’t you see?”
“Vai, Aye skal set inae vatch bae dis
efery tern Aye com to town for poorty nar
hull y’ar. ”
“I don’t know anything abont that, but
it is a sign, and you will sue all the watch
signs point to 8:18, for that’s the hour anti
minute President Lincoln was assassinated
at Ford’s theater in Washington.”
The Swede was satisfied ami wondered
how many times bo had eaten breakfast
just about sunset just because bis watch
didn’t happen to be right.—Denver Times

P. P. P., Lippman’s Great Remedy, Saves
a Kan From Becoming a Cripple.
Mr. Asa Ammons, a well -knotrn
ci*i?;en 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. Al) medicines and
treatments having failed to effect a
cure, the doctors said the leg must,
come oft'. Just when it seemed that
Mr. Ammons would become a disabled
and a crippled man, he tried P. P. I\,
Lippman’s Great Remedy, and the re
sult was wonderful.
P. P. P. SAVES H!S LEG.
“ Jacksonville, Fla.. July 1, 1595.
Two years ago I had the worst ulcer
on my leg I ever saw. It had eaten
down to the bone, and my whole 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 ( commenced to take P. P. I*.
and to bathe my 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 eoukl ask for as
a blood purifier, as I have known it to
cure so meterrible cases 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 and
permanent cure. This is only one of
many thousand similar cases.
Catarrh yields at once to P. P. P.
That smothered feeling at night, t'liat
heavy feeling in the day can and
should be removed f P. P. P. will do it
if you only give it a Chance.
Indigestion and constipation go hand
in hand. Headachesand total loss of
appetite are the results. Regulate
yourself and tone up your stomach

The Original Navel Orange Tree.
Over in tin* orangery at the agricultural
department is the parent tree of ail th<
navel oranges in ‘hol'uited States. Every
orchard of navel oranges in Florida, Lou
isiana. Colorado, Arizona and California
camo from it. Ami the shipments of this
kind of fruit from California alono have
reached 10,ut U carloads a year. This par
ticular tree, which is still bearing, came
from Bahia, Brazil, but is said to be a
native of southern China. William Saun
ders, the horticulturist of the department,
having heard that they had a seedless
orange in Brazil, sent down for a plant.
When it came it was carefully nurtured
and grew with surprising vigor. The sec
ond year, when Mr. Saunders was on his
way to the agricultural department one
morning he picked up in the gutter back
of the wholesale fruit market on Louisiana
avenue a pocketful of ordinary decayed
oranges. He carried them to his room,
extracted the seeds and planted them in
the hothouse. They produced a bunch of
thrifty little plants, upon w hich he graft
ed buds from the Brazilian tree and after
ward sent them to friends in California
ami Florida who were engaged in the
orange business. Mr. Saumters thinks
that the quality of the navel orange is.de
teriorating anil I hat there arc better grades
of fruit. —Chicago Record.
