All Together For the Carnival.
The executive wminititce of the Macon
Carnival A roc mt ion. at a meetuiM held
ririi-i iav -it’ rriooti, dr< idid to iiTnd a ju
bile. carnival In Macon this fall, rfuepite
the war and k-ifpite the objections that
have been raised.
T he N( a . was im lined to doubt the wis
dom of i< hau undertaking and so scaled,
betaevHiK chat it would be ter better to
make a aand success of a carnival a year
latt-ia than to run the risk of even a
partial failure mxi fall.
But cm VAdcutive committee did cot
asm- with ibis view, and refused to be
uissuaded. bo .here is nothing Jett for
M.c on to do but to hold a carnival. And
it must be a success The fact that there
, daiigi i of a fa.i Mi should inspire every
citizen of me coiiiiaunuy witn a doubled
dei< rminaiiou to make ii otherwise.
VVe know rigat now wti.it Wa will have

unions arc. We know that the war has

Every merchant must keep the carnival
eon.it.ii:tly before bls customers. Every
mtlziii must talk carnival and work four
the carnival until the people of Georgia
a.td neighboring states are made to think
of nothing but the Macon Carnival.
While The News doubted the wisdom of
such in undertaking this year, it admires
th, plm k o( tin nien who have determin
ed t > carry it out, war or no war. And
The News will join with them most hear
tily. Nor can we deny that the outlook is
far mere favorable than when we spoke a
few days ago. Since then msny things
have transpired to indicate that the war
war will soon be ended. It is thought by
many chat peace negotiations are even
now practically under way. So that the
victory may bo won before fall, in which
case the Macon Carnival will be u sort of
celebration of the event. At any rate it is
even now very evident that victory is not
a long wax; off, and this fact ‘has already
caused a better feeling throughout me
country, it is probable chai by October we
will feel tin- n r .st touch of the wave of
prosperity tnat is soon to break all over
'this giv.it country, and that Macon's Car
nival w ill serve to usher iu the new’ era
lor this state and section.
So let's all go to work Hopefully, cheer
iully. Now that it has been decided toihold
the carnival, there can be no turning back.
It is now a question whether or not it shall
be a failure or a grand success. Let's
JMdko the earihvtil wnat >t should be, de
spite war and unfavorable conditions, and
ueg.irdkvs of our own opinions as to the
wjsaom of the undertaking at such a time.
Someone suggests that Shafter ought to
trade General Duffu Id. of Michigan, off
for a yellow dog. And then shoot the dog.
Wherein Did Akin Err?
Hon John Akin, president' of the
Georgia Bar Association, made a very een
sution.il address at the opening of the
seventeenth annual convention of the as
xxiation m Vtlanta yesterday, in which
he attacked. very vigorously, the federal
judiciary. and. especially, the federal judi
chary of Georgia.
President Akin attacked the federal
courts o nthe ground that they are unduly
influenced by corporations and that nearly
all of their decisions show bias in that di
rection Such statements at almost any
other time would put Mr. Akin in con
'tempt of court, and we shudder to think
what frankness on his part might involve
if expressed under different oircumstances,
such as we could suggest.
Not being a lawyer and not having any
considerable direct knowledge of the work
ings of the federal courts in general, it is
not for us to say how far Mr. Akin is
right aid how far wrong in his strictures
on the federal judiciary, but we are dis
posed to heartily agree to the proposition
that a federal judge wields entirely too
much power for one man.
in effect,he exercises more authority over
his fellow citizens—by some judges consid
er, ,1 subjects—than even the United States
supreme court, the president and all the
courts ami authorities combined, if he
uses his power wisely and rightly, very
good: but if he happens to be a power
loving. tyranicaJ. unscrupulous judge, he
is a constant menace to hidividuals ami
communities.
.xin neither uphold nor deny Pres-
’• nt Akin's statements as to certain acts
and decisions of the federal courts of this
state, but we can heartily endorse the
st i tern ent that the records show compana
'■ely 'cw. ;f any. federal court decisions
involving a conflict of in-terests between
."■e public and great corporotions which
have flavored the former. It is true, as
J resident Akin says, and as the Democrat
ic platform declare, that they bare given
us government by injunction,” of which
Judge Gibons. of the circuit court of Illi
nois, declares that "In their efforts to-reg
ulate or restrain strikes by Injunction,
•hey are sowing wragon’s tovth and blazing
the path for revolution.”
Pn>sident Akin alluded directly to a
matver of great interest to Macon people
sod which should be of general interest to
every citizen of Gsorgla. saying:
By overruling their own decisions,
-therefore, the federal courts have become
the foreign corporation’s ’city of refuge. -
Hence the Southern Railway Invades the
comonwealth erf Georgia, buys up compet
ing lines and amalgamates them into
what is in some parts of the state one
monopoly of transportation, defies the con
stitution of Georgia in Its prohibition
against railroad monopoly and snaps i-u
fingers in the faces of the people and
rushes to the federal courts, which throw
their powerful arms around it and pre
vent Georgia's courts from interpreting
and enforcing Georgia’s constitution.”
It is reported that certain members of
the Bar Assoctetlon became indignant at
President Akin’s plain, unvarnished wt
tenances, and that there was a disposition
to have the speech expugned from the
records. And yet we fail to find among
the members of the Georgia Bar Associa
tion one more worthy to speak on the sub
ject than Thomas Jefferson, who. as Pres
ident Akin declared, although dubbed a
demagogue, proved himself a sew, end
with the clear vision of a philosopher, rec- '
ognized and eclared the conflict between
fedewlnsm and republicanism, between an
oHogarchy of wealth and a democracy of
the peoplefi between absolutism and indi
vidualism.
It was Jefferson who said:
"It has long been my opinion that the
germ of dissolution of our federal govern
ment is in the constitution of the federal
judiciary, an irresponsible body, working
like gravity by day and by night, gaining
a little today and a little tomorrow, and
advancing its noiseless tsep like a thief
over the field of jurisdiction, until all shall
be usurped.”
President Akin’s speech is so full of
interest, so forceful and so timely that
we feel inclined i 0 reproduce as much as
much of it as possible. He said .» part:
In fact, so unquestioned now is the
power o. the federal judiciary to annul a
federal statute on the ground of its uncon-,
stitutionality that we sotnet'mes forget
’ha., tms is the only’ judiciarv in the world
at any stage of its history which baa the
power to blot a country’s .iwi from ner
statute books. This power waj probably
not intended to be conferred upon the fed
eral judiciary by the majority of those
who framed the constitution. Indeed, when
the federal courts first exercised this pow
e£ declared rightful, very many of
the best and wisest looked upon it as an
usurpation ultimately fatal to free govern
ment; while Thomas Jefferson, then in the
mellow wisdom of old and honored age,
declared that it ‘placed the people under
tnt* dcspstism of an oligarchy.’
In every government ultimate power
must reside somewhere. In England it is
in the parliament, for its power to pass
laws is supreme and no court can declare
them void or illegal. In Russia it is in the
czar, for his will is the only law and the
imperial ukase can neither be disobeyed
or questioned.
'in the United States where resides this
power? In the people, we might say, Mr
customed as we are to think of the citizen
as the sovereign. But let us see. The peo
ple of the etate chose the legislature which
makes the laws. These laws may be sanc
tioned by the courts of the state. But the
federal judiciary may pass upon them and
declare them void because against the con-*
stltution of the United States. The people
chose their national representatives and
the senate and congress may enact statutes
which the people approve. But the federal
judiciary may abrogate these laws and
prevent their enforcement if deemed con
trary to the federal constitution. The gov
ernors and president may desire to execute
the will of the people as expressed in the
state and national statutes framed by the
pj-ople’s chosen agents. But the federal ju
diciary may set aside these statutes and
prevent the state and national executive
•from enforcing them. Changes may be at
tempted in the fundamental law of the
land and a majority of the legislatures of
three-fourths of the states may ratify
constitutional amendments passed by
congress in order to change the consti
totion so as to carry into effect the un
doubted will of a vast majority of the peo
ple. But the federal courts may dt Clare that
these constitutional amendments nave nob
been legally passed or may construe them
away, and from such a judicial declara
tion 'there is no appeal.
‘"The federal judiciary, therefore, is the
sole repository of ultimate power in this
republic, and the handful of men who
wield this power may wield it as long as
they live and chose to do so. For this same
judiciary may avoid one of its members’
expulsion from power by impeachment by
adjudging the impeachment proceedings to
have been illegal. And not even insanity
terminates this power, for as once piti
fully illustrated in our own circuit, a de
mented federal judge is sti’U the judge.
Death is the only brake upon this jugger
naut. But it is a very slight and fleeting
brake, for men who hold office for life
rarely die, and when they do their suc
cessors promptly take their places and the
wheel grinds on as ’before.
"It may be conservatively said that tie
greater power has ever been vested in any
officials or in any department of any gov
ernment than is now exercised by the fed
eral judiciary. It is, therefore, of the ut
most importance that these powers should
be exercised with the greatest caution and
that the public at large should keep upon
the possessore of such power an eye zeal
ous of the first encroachment upon lib
erty.”
The News publishes elsewhere today an
interesting communication from President
Waxelbaum, of the Macon Carnival Asso
ciation, answering the objections that have
been raised against the proposition to hold
a carnival this year. Mr. Waxelbaum is
full of vim and enthusiasm, and is not
willing to let any obstacle stand in Ma
con's way. The gentlemen associated with
him in this undertaking are made-of the
same sort cif stuff, and they have unan
imously decided to hold the carnival, re
gardless of unfavorable conditions. In
view of this fact, The News takes the po
sition that there is nothing left for IMa
eouites io do but to join in—and to do it
willingly and with the same spirit that is
being manifested by the leaders in the
movement. For this reason we give Presi
dent Waxelbaum’s eommunicatioa full
prominence, and commend it for its en
thusiastic spirit and determined, self-con
fident tone. It almost makes us believe
that with such men at the wheel a suc
cessful Chautauqua could be held even at
Santiago this summer. Lei it go at that,
and let everybody join in the chorus.
The Central Railroad has published a
list of fruit and melon growers along its
line of road, together with the acreage
planted in melons, and the number of
benring peach, pear and plum trees, lit
shows 5,236 acres in melons, 1,983,540
bearing peach, 67,000 pear, and 51,00 plum
trees. And it might be remarked in
passing that what the Central has allow
ed the Armours to do to the fruit growers
above mentioned has been a plenty.
The Rome Tribune evidently means to
be complimentary. But this is the way it
does it: “Like a diamond In a puddle, or
a bright star in a cloudy midnight, all the
brighter for its surroundings, we find the
following literary gem tn the editorial
columns of the Atlanta Journal.”
M*. W. Laird Clowes, an English naval
writer of some note, has an article in the
Bkigineering Magazine for July in which
he points out the defects In the American
navy, which leads one to wonder what
would happen to Spain if there were no
defects.
A recent Madrid dispatch announced
that Admiral Montejo would be courtmar
tialed for permitting 'Dewey to defeat him.
By the same token they won't do a thing
to Cerevra.
An exchange is of theopinion that Samp
son's presence at the destruction of Cer
vera's fleet was evidently delayed in
transmission.

ANSWERS MR. SMITH
Says Macon Can and Will
Hold a Successful Carni
val-Will Benefit Our
Merchanis.
Editor Evening News Mr. George A.
Smith in a card published in your paper
yesterday proceeds to dash several buckets
of ice water on our Diamond Jubilee with
the hope of permanently extinguishing the
Carnival.
It is to be rearotted that a single note of
card should be heard, yet for this, the
Carnival Association is nor to blame. The
Carnival isan assured fact, and it will be
one that will reflect credit upon Macon
and Georgia.
Because our merchants have been called
upon at times to subscribe to various funds
that bring thi m no return, is no reason
why they will close their purses and re
fuse to subscribe to an enterprise that is
for their direct benefit.
The Carnival will bring many thousands
to our »sty. The railroads have given as
surances that they will give us better
rates for a week than we have ever en
joyed before. We cannot secure these
rates unless we give a Carnival that will
command attention. Is there a merchant
in Macon who does not appreciate this
benefit and who will permit the advantage
to slip by. It is the policy of the Span
iards to postpone until tomorrow the
things that should be done today. 'Macon
has in the past, at times, done likewise,
but if I am not mistaken, Macon has learn
ed the lesson and her progressive people
will ho longer listen to the croaker.
Did Atlanta postpone the Confederate
reunion on account of the war?
Did Omaha postpone her exposition?
Look at Barnesville, Gainesville, Val
dosta and 'Milledgeville.
When the war clouds were the darkest
they planned and successfully carried out
their carnivale and Chautauquas—and there
Iras been no suggestion made that the
promoters were endeavoring to have fes
tivities while their neighbors mourned or
that they were selfish in holding their cel
ebrations while the soldiers of the nation
were carrying the American flag in tri
umph against the Spanish foe. Why should
the Carnival be postponed? Is not the end
of the war in sight? And if it proper for
the institution over hich Mr. Smith
presides to celebrate the nation's birthday
and furnish the people an opportunity to
engender a broader spirit of Americanism”
at 50 cents a head, when the war clouds
were most menacing, why should not the
citizens of Macon celebrate their diamond
anniversay and give our people and the
thousands who will visit us a free cele
bration when it is an almost assured fact
that the war will soon be over and our
beloved soldier boys will participate in
the festivities with us. While there are
a few who always respond to public de
mands who feel that the Carnival should
be postponed, most of the leading sub
scribers of the last Carnival have express
ed themselves ready to do their part In
this one. and the men who worked for the
Carnival of 1897, will not shirk the work
necessary to make the Maeon Patriotic
Diamond Jubilee a fitting celebration.
The majority of- those who are opposing
this celebrattion did not contribute a cent
to the. last one, and would not. to this one
if cotton were 10 cents a pound. T?j» are
ready to cry down any effort made to en
roll Maeon among progressive cities, but
are always ready to reap their share of
any benefits that may accrue.
We can and will do our duty to the'boys
at the front and will hold the Carnival as
well, Macoa will not be a ‘‘house of
mourning.”. E. A. Waxelbaum,
President Mason Carnival Association.
