The Farmer Pays the Bills.
The cost of war with Spain or with any
other country must, as Asistant Secretary
Brigham well says, fall on tin* farmers.
Prices may rise, doubtless will, ami tem
porary prosperity may follow, but alas,
•when the sweet-winged messenger of peace
settles her wings over our country again
the cost of war will the counted ami the
bills will have to be paid, by the farmers.
Ttiis is an indisputable fact, and one equal
ly as true is that the farmers will patriot
ically put their bands to the plow and
turn their spears into pruning hooks for
the purpose of producing the wealth that
is needed to carry on the struggle.
It is not, therefore, out of place to sug
gest even now. at this early day, that as
these farmers will have to pay the bills it
is well to make them as light as possible.
Thirty year after our late war we find
that we are the slaves of the then who dis
counted lite nation’s notes and isimls in
81-64 at the rate of 40 per cent, who, hav
ing been paid off over two-thirds of their
claim at par still have a mortgage on the
people that it will take more imunds ot
corn, wheat, cotton, tobacco, beef and
pork to pay than it would 'have at first ta
ken to pay off the whole amount.
We do not wish to appear unpatriotic
at a time like this. We know that it is
no time to count the cost, but it is well
that the 'farmer sees that the war is run
on non interest 'bearing paper (ere. nba-k. )
and that no bonds, coin or gold he issued.
T'ue war of 18G1 9t was fought on green
thrtek* :iml till w.ir can he fought to a
successful finish on the sune non-interest
bearing i crtiln ates of indebtedne-ss with
Uncle Sain's name appended. The 'farmers
and tax payers of this country should see
to it that no interest bearing debt be cre
atid to enrich the money lenders and en
slave themselves.
Secretary Long has been greatly annoy
ed during the last few days, it is said,
by the milt ipliclty of dispatches purport
ing to have been sent from the flagship of
the squadron. Without this formal approv
al, two or three newspaper correspondents
did secure this coign of vantage; but the
protests of the less fortunate called the
secretary’s attention to the fact, and so
an order was dispatched to Admiral Samp
son r« moving ill corespondents from the
warships It is safe, therefore, to regard
ns fakes the dispatches of any newspaper
hereafter dated from the squadron before
Havana.
Should Not Adjourn.
Tin* .people of (this country will strongly
oppose an adjournment of Congress at this
time. It Is not putting lit too strongly to
say that an adjournment of Congress dur
ing it'he progress of hostilities would arouse
surprise and indignation 'throughout the
Union.
While the nation is at war, it 'is not a
time for its war and peace making power
to desert its post of duly. It 'would ibe .the
same under all c'ircumstances and all ad
ministrations. It is especially the ease tit
ii time when we know that the disappear
ance of Congress would expose Mr. 'Mc-
Kinley tio the combined assaults of all the
malign influences 'which formerly envel
oped him and which have only been dis
pensed and defealtod for itihe tti-nie being bv
the irresistable forces of the whole nation,
speaking through its legislature.
But once let Con>gre«s adjourn .and 'the
flag of Hanna. MJvCaok. and their co-con
spirators will be thpisted .to 'the main peak
again, and the President and country will
have more to fear from the assaults of its
adherents, tthan from anything the Span
iards could do *to us. While we are fight
ing the Spaniards ait tihe front, we must
keep watch on (Reid, Hannji. Hale, 'Mc-
Cook, 'anil their gtang .in our rear.
I't is said that the mostt notable speech
in a contested election case before Con
gress since .the memorable speech of Sar
geant 8. Prentiss, was -that of E. W. Car
mack. last week, In vindication of his
election against the pretentions of Josiah
Patterson. It is s'.a'id to have been a mas
terly effort, replete with withering sar
casm. lofty invective, independent defiance
of adverse party action, a clear, candid,
truthful statement of foots involved, and
an eloquent appeal for a just and right
eous decision. His exposure of Patter
sons 'hypocrisy, and treason to the party
that bad honored him. was so dear and
convincing that Republicans dropped 'him
in disgust, ami tDemoerats (turned from
him in loathing and contempt.
On to Cuba.
The Indications are that an invasion of
uiha wiill take place within the next few
days, probably before the end of the pres
ent .week. Already 7,000 .troops are at
an t kU ‘ ran * <niem s'have 'been made
to follow these with.others at onee
U Is believed that Matonzas will be the
L Ol t U / r ? The P,an of *
said to be as follows:
The artillery win he used to defend the
landing ptace and protect it as a base of
supping. The infantry will march into
he interior and effect a junction with ithe
forces of Gomez. The cavalry will erve
to keep open rhe line of communication.
It has been suggested that the govern
ment may find It necessary ,to enforce itihe
stringent provisions of military few
against furnishing Intelligence of' army
or navy movements to the enemy during
the continuance of .warlike operations
The mauls, ttho newspapers, and the tele
gnaphs, are under ordinary circumstances
free agencies for the dissemination of
news; bub they might be used .bv heedless
or unscrupulous persons to the serious
disadvantage of the country in war time.
It is now in order for Evangelina Cis
neros to offer to return to Cuba wiith Gen
eral Lee’s coranaad as a “daughter of the
regiment.”
The North's Fight.
It ii a lamentable fact that there 1* a
disposition on the part of certain Northern
newspapers to designate the nation now
engaged in war with Spain as that part of
the Union which did not secede some
thirty-odd years ago.
The following from the Toledo Blade is
a case in point:
“The Americans of 1898 are quite as pa
triotic as their fathers of 1861. The re
sponse to the call of President McKinley
for 125,000 volunteers has be-en in aIF re
spects as prompt and as patriotic as that
to the call of -President Lincoln for 75,000
men in April, 1861—thirty-seven years ago
There has be-en no hanging back anywhere.
As in the* former case, the number of vol
unteer? in many of the states is in ex
cess of the quota asked for.”
Notwithstanding all that has been said
about the buried, and the wiping out of
th» Mason and Dixon line, the fact cannot
be disguised -that the North regards this
war as essentially its own, and whatever
glory attaches to it <will be claimed by
thoee states which did not'secede.
And yet the chances are ten to one that
Southern troops will have most of the hard
fig r ing to do. lAt least it is a for. gone
eojcl-.i: >n th?t they will win iw. of the
victa-i.-s, fir they ha. • lor< • set ucno.i
str.i’ed their ability to do about a- u.i ch
fighting as five or six Yankees.
Be this as it may, the attitude of the
Northern states in this affair is not calcu
lated to arouse the enthusiasm and patri
otism of Southerners. The latter stand
ready to do their duty, but they are equal
ly prepared to resent the bombastic claims
of the North. If victory is to be the result
of thia struggle with Spain, the North will
soon learn that it must depend, to a con
siderable extent upon the South, and not
merely upon the men who answered Lin
coln’s call.in ’6l.
A Word About Extras.
The News never humbugs the pufblic
with a take extra. Whenever you see a
copy of The News marked extra, you may
buy it with the full assurance that there
is some late news in it that is worth the
price. And in passing it may be re
marked that The News covers the day field
in Macon in away that offers other papers
very little opportunity to dip in. The
■News’ bulletin board keeps the public ful
ly posted throughout the morning con
cerning every happening of interest. If
the Associated Press reports warrant an
extra early in the afternoon it is issued.
Otherwise The News gives the public ail
the nows of the day in its regular edition,
and from five to eight hundred people buy
The 'News every day with confidence in
the volume and character of its news.
The United 'States will soon have in the
field a total of 186,000 men. The presi
dent’s call for volunteers brings 125,000
into service. The regular army numbers
25,000 now, and under the new army reor
ganization law it will be recruited at once
to (11,000 effective strength—'making 186,-
000 in all. While there may tbe another
call, it is certainly not in sight, at present.
The conflict 'with Sanin will be decided on
the seas, not on land. The number now
under call would appear to be ample for
all the work the land 'forces will perform
—Which will be to co-operate with t'be
Cubans to sweep the Spaniards out of Gu
'ba, t > d fend the exposed points on our
rout which may be threatened by Span
.attacks, and to do garrison duty.

The (Marbeaiu Cousins by Mr. Manry
Stillwell Edwards, is just from the hands,
of the publishers, and is a welcome addi
tion to the list of interesting fiction. Those
who read the story during its iputblioatiion

tiha It is now In book form, and a real
treat is in store for everyone who (has not
yest read the novel. The inteiresit 4s thrill

ly to Mr. Edwards’ fame as a writer and
will be eagerly sought by ithe reading pub

the same unfaltering as
surance a skilled and sci
entific physician seeks
for some undiscovered
remedy in the wide
ocean of materia medica.
He knows that when
the nature of a disease is
once thoroughly under
stood he has located the
latitude and longitude of tbe remedy , and
its ultimate discovery is only a matter of
time. It was in this way that Dr R. V
Pierce, of Buffalo, N ¥., was guided to his
world-famous "Golden Medical Discovery”
for the cure of consumption.
He realized that consumption is a consti
tutional malady, deep-seated in the blood
He sought and found this marvelous consti
tutional remedy which renovates and en
riches the vital current with nutritious life
giving elements ; healing wasted tissues,
restoring digestive and assimilative power,
and building up healthy flesh and genuine
enduring vigor.
In all those debilitating diseases which
are caused bv imperfect nutrition; this ex
traordinary "Discovery” is the most per
fect alterative remedy and strength-builder
known to medical science. It is not a
mere temporary stimulous like various
malt "extracts.” Its good effects are
permanent.
Where costiveness is among the prevail
ing symptoms, Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pel-,
lets should be used in conjunction with the
‘Discovery.”

patients," wi .ies Mrs. Annie M. Norman, of

Ca'< li:n K Cold.
It is not altogether unsutisfactary so
people who think that science and common
sense should run together, although no
doubt discouraging to th.-'e who looked on
tho gonn tl.i <.ry of disc asc as the openiut
of a sanitary tuilicnnintn, to find that-after
all we can‘‘cntch cold. ” The great dis
covery that most of th.* febrile diseaaea
from which wo suffer are a- eciated w ith
the growth within us of micro organisms
made many people for a time look some
what skeptically on “catching cold,” and
wo were told that when we felt shivery,
and then in a few hours found oiirsc-hcti
sniffing and out of sorts, the chill to which
wtt attributed all tbe mischief way really
tho first sign of our being ill. Certain ex
perhnenta, however, which have recently
been made tend to rehabilitate "cold” in
its ]>ositiou as a cause of dL-case, for they
have shown that exposure to cold lowers
the resistance of tho body io infection, and.
what is more inteiesting still, they have
made it clear that in regard to various
diseases which are known so be caused by
micro organisms, and especially in regard
to pneumonia, we may carry the organ
isms about with us and not suffer and yet
that exposure to cold may at onco enable
the microbes to take root.
Recent demonstrations of the presence
of the pneumococcus in tho lungs of
healthy animals, and the fact that expos
ing such animals to a thorough chill will
bring on pneumonia, is very suggestive
and makes it probable that in many of tho
ailments which result from "catching
cold” a concurrent infection from without
is not necessary. The healthier and the
cleaner the man, both inside and out, the
more, no doubt, will he bo able to bear ex
posure without ill consequences, but for
those people whose tissues are already
charged with infective micro organisms a
“mere chill” may evidently set up disease

A New Word Colund,
Philadelphia has Invented a word that Is
not without it s merits as a convenient. üb
stitutu for phrases more or lees long and
complicated. In that city, so The North
American reveals, “a person who has Inx-n
a jolly good fellow and who has reformed”
is called a “gink.” No light on the
word's etymology is given, and there is
not evena hint as towhat practical utility
it can be to the Philadelphians. But. the
first- of these points is unimportant, and as
to the second any outside criticism would,
of course, bu resented by our sensitive
neighbors.
It were best to take for granted, there
fore, the fact that Certain residents of the
Quaker City, at some period or other in
their lives, have been jolly good fellows.
Obviously they deserve to be styled
“ginks,” and we hasten to add, as The
North American docs, that “the word is
expressive of contempt or admiration, ac
cording to the company you are in.” This
is most interesting, h absolutely and be
cause n throws new lighten the j» habit

Tall, turbulent, tipsy Timothy Tittle
thwaite, the third tired, thirsty Thespian,
“tie” tourist, trudgingly traveling through
the thickly thronged, tortuous thorough
fare toward Tunlstown. Tautologically
talking theoretical, theological theses to
tedious, techy, testy Theodore Taylor, try
ing to talk trade topics to taciturn, tru
culent Thomas Trent, the tailor. Tarrying
to the tavern to treat Thomas to toddy.
Timothy toted traffic trifles, trinkets to
trade to tattling, tantalizing, teasing,
tasty, trim Theresa Thigpen, "the Titian
tressed” teacher. Trading to Theresa
toys, tops, tins, tubs, trivets, testaments,
thread, thimble, treacle, tobacco, tacks,
tracts, tomatoes, turnips, tow, tape, tar,
towels. Theresa trading to Timothy tooth
some tarts, tansy tea, turpentine, tallow,
trussed turkeys, turtles, terrapins, tad
poles, truffles, togs, tags, traps, trays.tripe,

thus thought the three travelers. This the
thirtieth time that this terse -truism.
