News has heard many com ments on its article calling attention to tiie sewer openings as tin- prOoable cause ot ttie epidemic ot sickness that at pres ent afflicts tins city, and numerous have Hieiii the opinions expressed endorsing The (News' demand for an investigation. A number of prominent citizens have expressed to The News personally the opin ion that the theory advanced is the correct one, witile those who have no positive opinion on tiie subject, want to know ex actly where the trouble lies. The mote The News lias looked at the matter the more convinced is it that the trouble is witli the sewers. It Is The News' opinion that the trouble may be somewhat aggravated in the present in stance because of Ute unusual condition of the sewets, but tliis would only prove the danger of lite openings as at present loca ted. We are now experiencing the long est drouth tn many years, hence the sew ers are necessarily full of effete matter. Iliad they been washed out by frequent rains, or had they been flushed in the usual way. the amount of poisonous gases escapinr, through the openings might not be sutliei.nt t<> cause a great deal of sick ness. Hut being in such an unusual state, tiie sewers throw off more poisonous gases than usual, and this escaping right under the doors and windows of our homes nat urally causes sickness. This, at least, is a most plausible explanation of the trouble, and one that will readily' appeal to all thinking people. No less plausible is the theory that if these openings had been placed atoove the house tops the poisonous gas would be carried oil Without contaminating the air in and around tiie house. Look at it as we may, the matter de serves serious and immediate attention. It is more than reckless to attempt to ig nore or disguise present conditions. The lives of our people are at stake. Many are already sick, many more will, in all prob ability t>e stricken down if they continue to bt< alite the poisonous gas .from the sew ers. Something must be done. Tiie News offers positive evidence that the trouble is not with the water. A careful analysis shows that the water is '•safely above suspicion.” What, then, is tiie trouble? Certain experts say that it is the sewer openings. Some say these openings were objected to at the outset. It is even stated that the contractors sug gested the danger of them, but were over ruled. We have even heard it stated that one of the gentlemen who was connected witli the sewer work, expressed no sur prise at the present conditions, saying he was only surprised that the danger from the openings had not made itself manifest before. In the face of such expressions, in the face of such appalling facts, can council hesitate? Can the city authorities refuse to make a thorough investigation of the matter.' What reason is there for even a day s delay? The scores of people who are now tossing on fevered beds echo the question. "Will council act? The people may submit when only their pocketbooks are involved, but they tire not to be trifled with when their families are at stake. They want to know if what has been said about these sewer openings is true or not. They will not accept the opinion of one or a few men; they want expert testimony. Only an investigation can bring out the truth. As to Cervera. The most authentic reports seem to indi cate that the American fleet has so far failed to accomplish its purpose with re gard to Cervera ami Santiago. So that, notwithstanding the recent engagement, a decisive light is yet to come—perhaps to day. Cuba is to be invaded at once, conse quently Cervera’s fleet must be destroyed or captured. We cannot trust to the "boi tling up" process. Evidently the govern ment. at Washington and Commodore Schley appreciate the fact that so long as the fleet is in existence as a Spanish fleet, even if it is "bottled up.” it is a menace to our operations for circumstances might arise which would give it a chance of es cape. Therefore, it seems evident, from all that can be learned, that Schley con templates getting at the fleet in some way at once and destroy it or compelling a sur render. It is known that Schley has liberal in structions as to the methods to be adopted in destroying it or capturing it. The de tails must be left to the judgment of the man who directs the assault on the ene my's ships. He will continue the work begun two days ago and if he has not disposed of <. ervera's fleet by the time the troops from Key West arrive at Santiago, he will then have the help of the army in the bombard ment o<f the ships by artillery posted in the surrounding hills. It is generally believed that many troops have already been landed in Cuba, but in view of the conflicting reports it is im possible to say anything with certainty on this point It is the policy of the govern ment to create as much confusion and un certainty as to the movements of the army as possible, so as to throw the Spanish spies off the scent. All we know is that The invasion is about to take place or al ready begun. Os course it would be of great advantage to Blanco to know of the |exact time and place, or places, of the landing of our troops. That must not be allowed. To prevent it may be to sate many lives of our soldiers. lor similar strategis reasons it may be expected that we shall be kept somewhat in the dark as to whether troops will be sent on to Porto Rico immediately after the destruction of the Spanish fleet and the conquest of Santiago, or whether that movement will be delayed until after the attacked at Havana. - -•- ‘Ss-JiAA Railroad Dictation Again. The News has persistently refused to take sides in the present Legislative race, believing as it did that all of the gentle men who have offered are worthy to rep resent Bibb county in the General Assem- My Nor does The News propose to espouse the cause of any particular candidate now; but certain facts have been brought to its attention within the past few hours that forces it to sound a warning. In a word. It is reliably understood that the Southern Railway seeks to defeat a certain candidate, and is secretly using its forces to accomplish this point. Everyone will recall the part played by the South ern in the last Legislative race; how it caused circulars to be issued on the day of election warning its employes not to vote for a certain candidate—because, forsooth, he had dared to defend a man charged with wrecking one of the Southern’s trains. At least, this was the offense upon which stress was laid. It so happened that the Southern’s tools got in their work against the candidate in question before its game was discovered, and its victim was defeated by about a dozen votese, but had the sun stood still for a few minutes longer, or had the Southern’s scheme been discovered a few minutes sooner the object of its wrath would have been elected by a safe major ity—for hundreds of people became right eously incensed at this effort at dictation on the part of a railroad corporation. Fortunately the Southern has been watched this time, and the watch has not proven fruitless. The giant monopoly and its tools have moved stealthily, but mur der will out, and so its game has been un earthed just a few days before the election this year—allowing ample time for the free, untrammelled voters of Bibb county to register a lust rdbuke of such interfer ence on tiie part of a railroad. The News confesses that it had rather not say so much even seemingly in the in terest of any particular candidate, but it would be untrue to its convictions and un faithful to the interests of the people should it fail to expose this outrageous attempt at dictation on the part of a railroad mo nopoly. It is for the people to be true to themselves in condemning such interfer ence. They cannot afford to ignore such a matter. It is a serious piece of business when a railroad attempts to say to a sovereign people, “You shall not elect this man to office; you must take this one, or this.” What object can a railroad have in sayipg who shall and who shall not go to the Legislature? By what right does it at tempt to dictate? We do not know how others may feel, but as for ourselves, we would vote for our worst enemy should he be confronted with such opposition. “ The general feeling of impatience that now possesses our people only shows what a fast age we are living in. It took tNelson two years and five months weary waiting and long chasing after the French and Spanish fleets to tiring off the battle of Trafalgar. And yet we are demand ing the complete annihilation of the Span ish fleet within a month after war was declared. The iNews has retrained from taking a hand in the present legislative race, but it cannot remain silent and see a railroad corporation dictate who the people of the county shall elect to office. It stands to reason that foul gases aris ing right under the noses of the family are not conducive to health. Surely, noun cil will have the matter thoroughly in vestigated. There should be some iway of accounting for the present epidemic of sickness. Are the city authorities afraid to have an in vestigation ? The Georgia Bankers’ Association will hold its seventh annual convention at Ty bee Island on June 15th and 16th. There will be 125 or more bankers in attendance. The News’ story about those sewer openings has put the people to thinking. The idea of breathing poisonous gases day in and day out is mot relished by many. If the sewer openings are responsible for the epidemic of sickness that now afflicts 'Macon, the people should know it in time to save their lives. The indications are that conscription is not far off. Some of the war shouters may yet have a chance to show their patriotism —if they don’t hide out. So the Southern proposes to again take a hand in 'Bibb county politics, eh? Well, we shall see. Old Potty is now engaged in an effort to make the women vote against Colonel Candler.

The action is said to be necessary because a ring is said to have been formed here by the owners to have them auctioned off much below their value. The government expects to buy the Guido to use as a supply ship. The prisoners on board to the number of 160 men will be held because they are mem bers of the Spanish naval reserves. They will go with the ships to New York. The authorities here say that probably all will be paroled on arrival at New York. The ships will sail under a strong convoy. Deafness Cannot be Cured. By local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portions of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused toy an inflamed condition of the mucous lining M the Eustachian tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing and wlien it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out. of ten are caused by catarrh, iwhich is nothing but an in flumed condition of 'the mucous surfaces.
