by the court.
Tm pnm uling means an immediate
sale of tiie property, in all probability to

.satisfactory to the <•>•• diton ami the court.

sale.
tn < •ninmi with tiie entire Macon pub
lic The News considers it very fortunate
lor file city and the romp.my itself chat a
transfer (’I rim property is .o be made, no
matter -u no may lie the successful bidder
For it is manliest tiiai tiie new owners,
whosoevi r they may be, will not be con
tent to operate the plant with its present
equipment or attempt to appease tire Ma
con 'pablie with such a service as has been
tolerated so long.
While we cannot, owing to the adversi
ties that havi overtaken the old company
and tiie legal complications attendant
thereon, justly blame anyone for the pres
ent anil past insufficient service offered
people, it is quite dear, now that the
plant 4s to find new owners, that further
failure to meet tire .public's d< tnatid would
result, and rightly so, in a new oompaiiy
entering the field.
The city has long accepted inadequate
aerviee, poor lights, insufficient power and
all that, mainly through a spirit of len
iency for an insolvent corporation. Now,
however, the city, in placing its contract
for lights, ami tiie .general public will ex
pect, ami no doubt receive, a service in
keeping with the demands of the times.
Hut even as It is the new owners will
Ibe, nor should they be. allowed a monopo
ly of the business. They may rightfully
expect, provided they guarantee adequate
service, a contract front tiie city, but this
would, by no means, c lose t'he field to oth
ers. It is unlikely, however, that an inde
pendent company would care to enter a
(field already propertly tilled, so that the
new company can have a monopoly only by
giving tiie peojde such service as they
have a right to expect in return for fair
compensation. And to such a monopoly
the public can make no ixissible objection.
Hut not alone does the city benefit by a
sale of this property. It seems to us that
the owners or creditors of the .Macon (las
Light and Water Company have acted
wisely in ridding themselves ot the elec
tric light plant. For the reason that the
company is unable to properly equip the
same, thus coustatitly inviting competition
of a character so formidable as to practi
cally drive them from the Held. Thus
they would have suffered a total loss,
whereas they now get out with a fair and
even liberal price for their electric plant,
and are left free to devote their full ener
ergles to the gas and water plant, which
again promises an improved service. In
deed, the latter, through the wisdom of the
court and with the consent of the parties
at interest, is already undergoing impor
tant changes, which insure a greatly im
proved service.
So that in whatever way it is viewed,
the disposition that is about to be made of
<i portion of this property seems a good
thing for all concerned. Macon will now
take rank, both in the matter of electric
light and water supply, .with any city of
equal size in the country, while both the
old company and the new will probably
find ibis a remunerative field.
The latest dispatch that “General Alger
had no intention of retiring from the office
of Secretary of War," was not needed to
convince an unsuspecting public that the
general is not of a retiring disposition, ex
cept (as bis record shows) in certain pecu
liarly delicate circumstances of war. En
sconced in the war department, with the
oportunity of commanding, at a safe dis
tance. armies of vetera is in the field, he
will be among the last to ask for a leave
of absence.
What a'. Invasion of Cuba Means.
Lossada. Inspector-General of the Span
ish forces in Cuba, recently issued his of
ficial report showing that out of 200,000
soldiers sent by Spain to put down the re
bellion in Cuba since January, 1X95. a fa
tality unprecedented by that recorded in
the history of any former campaign in
modern times, of 147,000 as killed, died or
sent back home wounded or unfit for ser
vice. having only 53,000. a little over one
fourth part for active duty.
M liile there is some comfort in the above
guns, as showing the weakness of Spain’s
< üban army and the difficulties in the way
of successfully concentrating an army oil
the island, there is also much food for se
nous thought therein.
If the United States has the same expe
rience. an invasion of Cuba is not to be
relished by our troops, even though the
danger from Spanish bullets is not consid
er, tsl. it is conceded that the insurgents
iV'h c<Mnparativ e l y few Spaniards

th<- Spaniards may hope to kill of United
States troops, so that disease Is mainly re
sponsible for the terrible mortality above
noted. And disease is no respec tor of uni
forms. knows no flag and maintains strict
neutrality between two enemies. We mar
have the advantage of better discipline
better food, etc., in our favor, but even
then, we canont expect to escape entirely
the ravages of yellow fever and smallpox.
he outlook is not encourageing. from
whatever standpoint it is viewed.
The soldiers are ready and willing, now
to take greenbacks in payment for their
services on the tented fields upholding the
honor of our country but the bloated
bond robbers of Wall Street, and the
Rothchilds. who furnish money to Spain
to fight us. while they profess' friendship
for us. demand gold—the pound of flesh cut
nearest the heart of the nation—in pay
ment for interest on the bonds they force
this weak and profligate administration to
fasten upon the people.

HOW TO LOOK GOOD.
Good looks art- really more than skin
deep, depending entirely on a healthy con
dition of all the vital organs. If the liver
is inactive, you have a bilious look; if
your stomach is disordered you have a
dyspeptic look; if your kidneys are af
fected. you have a pinched look. Secure
good health, ami you will surely have good
looks. “Electric Hitters” is a good Altera
tive And Tonic. Acts directly on the stom
ach, liver and kidneys, purifies the blood,
cures pimples, blotches and boils, and
gives a good complexion. Every bottle
guaranteed. Sold at 11. J. Lamar & Sons’
