Il it j 11 in .i .-li.i i . and the fact has
not bn n dt.niiil, that the Southern Rail
way, thiough it tools large and small in
thia county, is working to defeat Col.
Jo-eph 11. li.ill for the legislature, then
the vol' is of 'Bibb county have a duty to
perform next Monday in asserting their
light to choose their awn lawmaker* with
out mi. i lei i n..e oi attempt at dictation
upon tlie ipart of a railroad corporation—•
e.-peciallj out that is believed to be now
violating the laws of Georgia, and which,
it is generally thought, desires to have
these laws changed to suit its own pur
poses.
it is by far the most important issue
that lias evt r arisen in a Legislative con
test in this county, and it is tor this rea
son and not from any personal choice of
candidates, that The News lias dared to
sound a warning which should, and no
doubt will, save tlie Southern’s intended
victim from ttie contemplated slaughter.
We eaunot believe that the free, un
traniinielhd thinking wotems of this county
will fail to see tlie matter in the same
light. We cannot believe that our people
have been 'Mind to the meaning of the ac
tive woi I* which has been done during the
past few days ami is still being done by
tlie Southern’s political tools. We cannot
believe that they will remain silent or un
concerned and see a railroad corporation
accomplish Hie defeat of a particular can
didate bm ause, forsoot h lie happened to
defend, during the practice of his iprofes
ion, a man charged with wrecking one
of the Southern's trains. We assert again
that tlie interference of this giant railroad
i oi'lHii at ion is too serious a matter to be
lightly treated by the voters of this esun
t/. . > impressed are we with this fact
that we have spoken out in defense of the
Southi t’li'. intend' d victim in a contest in
which we preferred to remain entirely
silent and neutral. We have refused to
be cent rolled by personal preference, bus
have felt it our duty to stand up for the
right of tlie people to choose for them
selves as against a railroad’s attempt to
say who they shall chose to make their
laws.
This is The News' position and It Is also
the ease in a nutshell. What will the peo
ple do about it? It for them to say. Will
they submit? Or will they assert their
sovereign right next Monday. Merchants,
bankers, laboring men, wage earners,
think over these things. And 'let your
conscience guide you next Monday when
you mark your ticket. Nothing less than
your political liberty is at stake.
The hay crop of the United States last
year was valued at $400,600,000, and this
year will be worth more.
Find the Cause.
We still insist that the Board of Health’s
“opinion" does not satisfy the minds of the
people as to the cause for so much sick
ness in 'Macon. The Board of Health sim
ply says it is no’t the sewers and not the
water. Then what is the cause? The Board
intimatese that it may be the long drought
but, surely, the drought could only have
caused local conditions that in turn have
caused so much sickness. Then the ques
tion is, what are these conditions and how
are they to be remedied? Has the long
drought caused the sewers, through the ac
cumulation of an unusual amount of effete
mater and a faulty feauture in their con
struction to h-coma underground channels
of disease? Can the Board of Health an
swer this question without a thorough in
vestigation ami without bringing expert
testimony to hear on the subject?
Or, Is»the sanitary condition of the city
what it should be during a' long drought
like tlie one we are now experiencing?
Certainly tlie appearance of the streets and
alleys do not indicate it. Or, perchance,
the trouble lies in allowing, the streets of
the city to be dug u{\ during a long, dry,
heated term. This, as is well known, is
positively forbidden in many cities.
Evidently something Is wrong. What i«?
it Can the Board of Health properly
treat tlie ease without making a thorough
diagnosns -without first locating the cause.
This it has not done: it merely says the
cause is not what some people have said It
is. But until it gives some better theory
than the one advanced, the people will
contiue in doubt. And the situation may
grow more serious. Gentlemen, find out
the cause, ft is your duty. That’s what
the Board of Health is for.
4re you willing that the Southern Rail
way shall dictate Bibb county’s choice of a
Legislator? if so. join with it in the fight
against Colonel Hall.
A Word to the Voters.
Just bear this in mind when you go to
the polls Monday. The Southern Railway’s
tools, and some few who are simply work
ing in the Interest of some particular can
< "late. will ten you there jg nothing at aU
in the report that the Southern is making
a fight -on a certain Legislative candidate,
fhey will say it is merely a political ca
<iard. They will try to convince von that
rhe Southern really has no interns': in this
race j„st turn around and ask them win
then d<, they talk this way. Ask them why
duln t the Southern or its tools come out
openly and make such a denial. Ask them
why did the Southern cause certain circu-
Mrs to be issued on the day of the last
election willing upon railroad employes
as they valued their positions, to vote
sgalnst a certain candidate. In short just
in mind that U 18 -rt
rh, mOSt clwr,y confirms the
charges that The News has made. Be on
fight remember . !ha * tke Southern’s
secret one, is being made from
Xuh ,h r^ rp - mwst bp *
order to be effective. And as vou value
Po’“*cal liberty, your right to choose
jour own legislators without the dictation
of a railroad corporation, rebuke with vour
J’ a ”°‘ th ? , attempt aI interference— this
olgh-haaded conspiracy.
‘ Estimate of Cotton Acreage to Date. i
The News received today from Latham. '
Alexander & Co., the' most reliable ex
perts in ths country, their estimate on the
cotton acreage of the United States up to
June 2d.
With the view of Obtaining the most
reliable information possible concerning
the cotton acreage of the United States for
1898, they addressed, as usual, some 3,500
letters to cotton commission merchants,
brokers, banks and bankers making ad- i
vances and responsible planters, embracing
'every cotton growing county in the South,
: asking acreage estimates.
i Up to June 2d they had received 2,448
I replies, of average date, May 20, and the
following is the result, which in their !
opinion is approximately correct as could
be secured by information received from
trustworthy sources in the Cotton States.
The estimate, which is highly important
at this time, is as follows:
j Acreage Acreage

■ * ■ I •>.’>78,009; 6.183.000
! 0tate 124,071,000132,736,000
Commenting on this the Latham, Alex
ander Co. say:
Ihe total estimated decrease in cot
ton acreage in the United States for
1898 is per cent or 1,335,000 acres less
than last year, and the average planting
of the crop is about the same as la.vt year
when planting was late. Our correspond
ents report that the reduction in acreage •
has been brought about by the low prices. '.
of cotton, reluctance of commission mer- '
<ban,ts to make as liberal advances to t.he
planters as last year, in the face of war, ’.
and the increase in acreage in tobacco,
wheat and corn, on account of the high
prices of these commodities.
While in some sections much replanting
has been necessary, on account of cold '
weather, overflow in Arkansas and White
rivers and poor stands; as a whole, the '
crop can be said to be in a fair average
condition as compared with other seasons !
at the same date.
The closing of Joseph Leiter’s wheat |!
deal, says an exchange, gives the statis- ’i
tical fiend the opportunity to complete al
brand new set of figures. The fiend cal
culates that 'Leiter took a total nrofit of '
$4,500,000 on the deal; that his average,
monthly profit was $321,400, his daily aver
age profit for fourteen months $10,710, his p
profit per hour sll6, .and iper minute $7.50.
I here are some other persons, however,
who do not believe that Leiter really made ’’
more than $7.48 per minute.
It is given out from Washington that
when the 75,000 called for in the presi
dent’s second call is complete another call
will be issued for an additional 50,000 '
volunteers, making in all 250,000, which.,
with the 25,000 regular army soldiers, • will .
make 275,000 men under arms. We seem
to have shaken off the idea that this in
vasion of Cuba was to be merely a r m- ' 1
mer excursion for a few of our boys.
Judge Spencer R. Atkinson is a surt» |i
winner.—(Brunswick Call. Even if Ute ‘
Call isn't the original Atkinson paper, it. I
evidently proposes to claim the distinction'
of being the last one to nail the Atkinson
colors to tbe top mast of the sinking ship. '
George Tillman, brother of Ben. is a •
candidal.' for governor of South Carolina.
His platform embraces the claim that he
never wore an overcoat or an undershirt
in his life.« This ought to insure his elec
tion, thinks an exchange.
We cannot believe that any considers- ii
ble number of 2.100 people who have reg
istered for Monday’s primary will 'tamely
submit to dictation upon the part of a
railroad corporation in the selection of
their law makers.
"'Your Uncle Allen” admits that Rob
will get a few votes, but he thinks Spencer
will havq to get an affidavit to prove that
he was running.
The Rome Tribute says The News is
coneeiteld. We are at least sufficiently so
to accept any a'buse from that source as
a compliment.
We suggest that the Rome Tribune pro
ceed to get in readiness an editorial for
Tuesday next telling “Why Atkinson
Won.” ,
Will you help the Southern Railway to
control ißibb county politics? Is so, vote
against Colonel Joseph H. Hall on Mon
day.
If Cervera Is really not at Santiago, then
he deserves the congratulations recently
showered upon him by the Spanish people.
The blue pencil of the censor seems to
be mightier than the sword —or the 13-
pounders either.
Mole'St. Nicholas is the most appro
priate location for a monument to An
nanias.
Monday’s primar.v now promises to be as
hot as the weather.
T was seriously afflicted with a corfgh for
several years and las't 'fall had a more
severe cough than ever before. I have
used many remedies without receiving
much relief, and being recommended to

poor widow, gave it to me. I tried it with
the most gratifying results. The first bot

DKEAM OF SPANIARDS.
Cauied Chicago Man to Rip. Through Streets
in Night Dress,
•Chicago. June 4.—What Robert Kay ate
for supper does not appear on the police
records. Nothing is there but the naked
fact that he leaped from a window while
dreaming, that he leaped from a window
while he was captured and that Justice
Eberhardt fined him $lO for doing these
things.
Along about 1 o'clock in the morning
Kay’s supper began to work and he began
to think he was being chased by ghosts:
soon he dreamt that devils were toe pur
suers. So his dreams became worse and
worse, and after a time he dreamt that
Spaniards were after him. Just as any
.other man would do under the eircutn- ’
stances, he leaped out Os his second - store
window, at Halstead and West Taylor
streets, and started along Halstead in his
night attire. Cabbies and some policemen
pursued him. but he ran too fast for them
—he thought Spaniards were after him.
In about ten minutes he plumped into the
arms of a policeman and was led to the
lockup.

that is the charm that robust health alone

[| COLLEGE ATHLETES
Are in a Muddle Over the Question of Pro
fessionalism.
• Chicago. June 4.—-James H. M.tybury
I and H. >A. Cochcms, of the University of
Winconsin, have been cleared of the charge
of professionalism at a meeting of the
graduate committee of the Wesern Inter
collegiate Athletic Association by a unan
imous vote.
As a result, the University of Chicago
has withdrawn from the association and
will hold a separate meet on Marshall
field this afternoon. Michigan and Illi
nois have instructions from their faculty
athletic committees to follow suit.
The three universities will invite all of
the colleges belonging to the old associa
tion to join.
The M isconsin authorities are incensed
at this action of the three colleges. As ’
the Badkera are already under the ban
in baseball it is feared the byeott will ex
tend to football also. Northwestern prob
ably stand by Wisconsin, and possibly lowa
and iMinnesota.
