ENDORSING
DR. MUMFORD
Committee Sends Out an Ap
peal to the People of
the South
fOS fINANCIAI AID,
Badly Needed by the Institution
Dr. Mumford Has the full
Credentials.
To the preachers and members of the
Methodist church, South, within the
bounds of the North and South Georgia
and Florida conference, greeting:
The undersigned were appointed by the
board of trustees of Wesleyan Female Col
lege, at its recent session, “a committee
for the purpose of addresssing the confer
ences and the churches on the powers and
duties of the agent elected by the board.”
The question of puting an agent in the
field has been under consideration ever
since the policy of leasing the college was
abandoned and the trustees assumed di
rect and entire control of its fortunes.
More than a year ago the board of trus
tees declared in favor of employing an
agent, and the three conferences, which
own the college, endorsed the action of the
board. The executive committee, to whom
was entrusted the selection of a man for
the position, tried earnestly to secure one
who was qualified to fill it. One whom
they unanimously elected, after consider
ing the matter for months, declined the
place. Another who was willing to serve
could not oe had because his bishop re
fused to release him from pastoral work;
More and more as time has passed aii<.
the educational standard of the college has
been raised nd competition has been iu
■Ovcn raued and competition has oeen in
pressed upon us, and at its May meet
ing the board 01 trustees, by a practically
unanimous vole, elected Rev. \viliiam is.
Aiuniiord to tais office. The only opposition
to this choice came from two of cue trus
tees of the rioutn Georgia Conference or
phans’ home, whose most eimeieut agent
Hrother Mumford has been for neatly live
years, and the loss of whose services these
trustees feared would seriously damage the
Home. riven tney, however, were con
strained by the present pressing claims of
the college and by the conviction that
Brother Mumford is the- man to do the
work needing 'to be doiie, to yield their ob
jections.
Before Brother Mumford can be clothed
with full authority as agent of the college
and give his .full time to the work of his
agency, he must first be appointed by the
bishop, on recommendation oi the annual
conference, winch cannot bedone until next
ideoember. In the meantime ho consents,
so far as he can, without interferance with
his work as agent of the Orphans’ Home,
to keep the claims of the .college before the
people .by private and public appeals, to
select patronage and to raise funds to meet
our present indebtedness and to increase
our endowment.
The great institution which has done so
much lor he .Christian education of the
women of the South has reached a point
in its history from which it may go for
ward to far greater usefulness than has
characterized its past at any time. But to
do this it will be necessary for its friends
to rally to it as never .before.
Though the purpose of giving to woman
a collegiate education originated in the
minds and hearts of Georgia Methodists,
and though they founded the first woman’s
college in the world, it must be confesses
that our subsequent history has not ful
filled the promise of our beginning, in
stead of placing our college where, b
right 'of priority and the |inle won by its
past glorious achievements, it ought to be,
in the front rank of the female colleges
of the land we have allowed other and
less favored institutions of other states io
go beyond us*
We owe to the generosity of a northern
Methodist our splendid college building and
the only endowment we have. Georgia and
Florida Methodists, who, by such contri
butions as they could easily have made
year by year, during the past sixty years,
might new have one of the best equipped
at 1 most largely endowed famale colleges
in the would, are confronted 'by the .Vet
that the school is yet in need of their
long delayed support.
Your trustees, by lowering the standard,
employing cheap teachers, putting down
rates of board and tuition and deceiving
the! people by flaming advertisements,
with a He in every line, could, no doubt,
sustain tn Macon a high school under the
name of Wesleyan Female College, per
manently, but the men now composing the
board are incapable of ■betraying ‘heir sa
cred trust after this wise. They are fixed
in the determination to still further ra’se
the already high standard of Wesleyan
and secure to the daughters of the south
the verv lest educational advantages fur
nismd bj’ any institution in the land.
It is a sad fact that many of our Meth
odist girls who ought to be in attendance
on Wesleyan college have been in attend
ance upon neighboring institutions run by
the state. Some Christians of this genera
tion are turning over the education of
their daughters, the future mothers of our
country, to the state, and so removing
them at the formative age in their mentaf
and spiritual life from the, fashioning
hand of the church of Christ, portends re
sults that no thoughtful person can con
template without shuddering.
We are quite sure that our people only
need »o realize the present situation and
intelligently forecast the future, to be
brought solidly into line in the support of
Wesleyan Female College. Brother Mum
ford has been requested to represent us in
the field, with the hope that he may be
able to arouse the Methodists of Georgia
and Florida to the necessity of immediate
action to put the college in position to do
that class of educational work which the
times demand. An intelligent, enthusias
tic. religious, presentation of the claims of
the Wesleyan, cannot but result in present
upright and in Increased and permanent
success. Feeling sure that Brother Mum
ford is capable of doing the work needed
on this line, we commend him to the con
fidence of the church, and bespeak for him
a hearty welcome into the pulpits of our
preachers and the homes of our people.
After the next session of the South Geor
gia conference we expect him to give his
whole time to the duties of this agency;
and. in the meantime, under the aetton of
the board of trustees and of the confer
ences, be is authorized to represent the
co!' ge, to raise money, to solicit patron
age. and, under the direction of the presi
dent, to make terms with patrons.

MACON NEWS FRIDAY EVENING. JULY i 1898
MORE STAMPS
CALLED FOR.
Than the Government Has
Been Able to Furnish
on Call.
Hirams wi ugh
The Charge Made by Express Com
pany of One Cent on Each
Package.
. New York, July 1. —The World this
morning says:
The war tux in its entirety is in force
today. The schedules relating to beer and
tobacco operative June 14, the
oiliet schedules took effect at midnight.
There is a great scarcity of stamps.
The government with all its equipment
has been able to furnish only a fraction
of the supply needed. As a result several
large manufacturers of proprietary medi
cines will be forced to reduce their output
for days, or perhaps weeks, until the sup
ply of stamps is adequate.
Collector Treat began the sale of docu
mentary and proprietary stamps on Tues
day. There was a demand tor over 40,000,-
uoo stamps of all classes at this office at
the outset, but applications were cut all
along the line.
The banks were most favored, because
stamps wil be sold at all banks, and the
public will thus have easier access to
them. An applicant for 30,000 stamps, for
instance, received 10,000 or 5,000 according
■to the value. The number to be given was
left to the discretion of the collector.
The Western Union Telegraph company
received 200,000 one-cent stamps, the Pos
tal Telegraph company 100,000, the Anglo-
American 25,000 and the Trans-Atlantic
company 25,000.
The demand (for stamps has been largely
increased by orders from out of town
from business and bankers who are unable
to get supplies from the revenue office of
the’ir own district and ordered through
their representatives in this city.
Two-cent postage stamps, with the let
ters I. R. on .them were sold in place of
stamps designed for different classes. The
dollar stamps were the highest denomina
tion sold.
The telegraph companies have not yet
received stamps necessary to properly
conduct .their business. Until they get
them one-cent extra will be charged for
each mesage and the money turned over
to the co’lectors.
The telegraph and express, companies
will make customers pay the tax of one
cent each on telegrams and bills of lading
by compelling them to buy the stamps
and cancel them. The Postal company
posted a notice to this effect. These com
panies will carry supplies for several days
but later on the public will be expected
to furnish its own stamps.
‘‘What shall I do to send a message after
midnight tonight?” a reporter asked the
main office of the Postal company.
“(Buy a one-cent stamp at our office.”
was the reply. “Stick it on the telegraph
blank, cancel it by writing your initials
and the date. We will sell stamps for sev
eral days and afterward you will ifurnish
your own stamps, precisely as you fur
nish your own stamps for letters.”
At the American Expres company’s of
fice the same information was .given as .to
bills of lading.
The Merchants association has decided
to fight the express companies on this is
sue and will probably appeal to the courts
f common carters refuse to give a receipt
with the stamp tax duty paid when a
package is offered for shipment. A com
mittee of the association visited each ex
press company to annouce that merchants
would not pa>’ the tax. The express com
panies replied .that hey had been advised
by counsel that they were not obliged to
pay it.
The railroad companies have practically
agreed to pay a part, of this, and mer
chants association proposes to bring the
express companies into line.
Under their contracts with the railroad
companies the express people are obliged
to pay a certain per cent., varying from
40 to 50 per cent, of their gross receipts
as compensation for express facilities upon
lire various roads. The adoption of the first
f tb.<".<t’ measures would therefore have
aecessltatf d an increase in the rates of
the express companies to a sum nearly
double the amount of the tax It was
therefore decided that the most feasible
proposition was the adoption of the rule
that only the exact amount of tax shall
be collected The shipper will be required
to pay this tax, plus the express compa
ny’s rates.
The Herald says:
?ome of the leading events of the day
(Thursday) were the announcement of the
Now York Telephone company that it
would reduce the price of toll mesages
from 15 to 10 cents within limits of Man
a.ttan and the Bronx, except messages
from one of these districts to the other,
the company thereby avoiding the neces
sity’of paying any war tax on such mes
sages
The announcement of express compa
nies that they will compel the public to
pay only I cent tax on all the packages
and the threat of the Merchants associa
tion to c»n-.-v rT, e matter into the courts.
The opinion of Commissioner Schott
.that the tax on stock transfer is not so
extensive as was originally supposed.
The apparent discovery of Wall street
that under eertain circumstances bonds
are exempt forme taxation. The ruling that,
brokers engaging In different branches of
trade, such as stocks, grain, cotton and
real estate, must take out a separate li
cense for each branch. The decision that
in the case of future sales on‘the floor of
an exchange the tax is payable on the
contract, at the time of sale, not of deliv
ery.
PEACHES FOR EXPORT.
A Firm of Commission Merchants that Fills
a Long Felt Want.
Messrs. D. Crossley & Sons, of New
York, is a firm of c Omm i SS i<> n merchants
such as has been needed for many years
and one which will be of Interest to those
of the peach growers who have had Ely
sian dreams of exporting the famous El
berta peach to Europe.
These gentlemen can at this time secure
refrigerated space across the ocean and
while they don’t hold out expectations of
fabulous prices from exportation, they con
tend, and we think rightly so, that it will
form an outlet for a congested market and
lender such conditions hope to secure for
their snippers the uniform value of their
peaches when the easterp markets be
come filled.
These gentlemen have equal facilities
for handling fruit in America to any other
hpirse. and moreover have rhe further ad
vantage qf exporting to their own Euro
pean houses. ,
They are represented at Fort Valley and
Perry by Messrs. Greenway and ■Boes.
These gentlemen will be glad to furnish
iaferm.’ition or make consignments at any
time.
In the event that Kurope should be
found a successful market for our surplus
fruit its exportation will at once assume
large proportions.
Messrs. Crossley & Sons have found it a
splendid market for other American fruits,
and believe that it will solve rha question
of congested home markets.
The above firm Is represented in Macon
by F. B. Roush Produce Company.

NOT ft STAMP
IN HIS OFFICE
The New Stamp Clerk Took
Charge of the Office
Todav.
BUSINESS WILL GO OH
Just the Same —Banks Have a Few
Stamps on Hand—Very Few in
the State.
The new stamp clerk, Mr. Eugenie Nel
son, of Gordon, arrived .this morning and
took charge of his office. He did not find
any stamps here on his arrival.
A news reporter went in and asked him
about the stamps and when he would get
them. He said that he lid not know that
the government had so many orders for
stamps that it was imposible to fill them.
He said that it would be lawful for the
merchants to continue their business in
the same way that they have been doing,
as no ofie except the government is to
blame
The banks have a few stamps on hand,
enough, to last several days. They have
all ordered more. Many of the bankers
think that the government will send the
stamps here in a few days.
The outlook accordingly is that Macon
and all the balance of .the state except
Atlanta will in all probability have to get
along without stamps until next week. Al
though .this means countless violations of
the law, it is not supposed for au instant
that the government would think so en
deavoring to enforce the penalty prescrib
ed in the act when it has so woefully fail
ed to make proper provisions to enable
efrhe public to comply with the law.
This in itself will be a considerable an
r.oyai.ce to business house issuing large
nambers of checks and drafts.
