Surgeon General Wyman makes the cheerful announcement that there is not a case of yellow fever in this COMntry at present, so far as the .Marine Hospital ser vice is advised. The disease has been en tirely stamped out at McHenry, Miss. We Don't Want Philippines. Now that Santiago has been disposed of and affairs in Cuba are assuming good shape, the Philippines are destined to be the center of interest to our people and to .Europe as will. Within the next week or ko the second expedition will arrive at .Ma lala. There will then be tome 11,000 American troops at Cavite, ready to take Manila if its governor do. s not yield to the demand foi a surrender. It will be an easy matter to take the city, as our fleet van bombard the defences without difficulty, and the Americans, aided by Agtrinaldo, will make short work of Spanish resistance on land. .But the question is, what will we do wit'h the I‘hilippinese if we get possession of them. There is ha rd I y any doubt of the fact that the nations of Europe will dis pute our right of conquest, and there is no telling what may grow out of the affair. It is encouraging, therefore, to find that President McKinley is not among those who believe we should hold the Philip pines, for his attitude practically moans that we will yield without provoking any trouble; or, rather, that we will volunta rily surrender the Philippines, for the very good reason that we hav» no use for them. We may rightfully undertake to keep the islands of the hands of the European land grabbers. but this is quite as far as we should go in the premises. There is nothing like being an immune; soon Colonel Ray’s boys will be sent to Santiago, and there they will have nothing to do but lie in the shade and defy yellow fever. After the Spaniards, Then the Insurgents. The \lbany Herald has a sensible edi torial on future developments in Cuba, in the course of which it says those who are congratulating themselves and the country upon the present prospect of an early ter mination of the war with Spain are hug ging a delusion. The war may soon be over so far as the armed forces of the Spanish government are concerned, but af ter the Spaniards are driven out of Quba, tin Phillippines and Porto Rico, then we ■will have to deal with the insurgents. And we will be fortunate indeed if we don’t have the same trouble with them that the Spaniards have had. Indeed, it may be worse, for the Cubans have an idea that this war is being fought for their especial Vuiilit. and as soon -as the Spaniards ar° driven from the Island the insurgents, most of whom are mongrels, will expect to take charge. With the rams and equip ments that have been given them by our government they will be a bad set to deal with. too. In the Philippines Aguinaldo. the insur gent leader, has already proclaimed him self president of the Philippine republic, and it is very evident that he proposes to have somtehing to <ay about the final dis position of the islands. The insurgents both in Cuba and the Philippines are going to give us trouble, and it will be some time after the ing that has to be done with Spain is over with before we see the end of the war. Sampson ordered Shafter not to com plete any terms of surrender without con sulting him. Sampson is exigent and am bitious to justify the wisdom of his poli tical appointment, thinks an exchange. A Continental Alliance. 1 he London correspondent of the Paris Matin has intelligence of the formation of a continental bond or alliance whose ob ject will be to prevent the United States becoming the successor of Spain as a power in Asiatic waters. The moral argu ment advanced is that this country, having officially promulgated the Monroe- doctrine of the non-extension of European influ ence in the western continent, is estopped from extending its influence in the eastern continent. It is considered a strong argu ment, and will be backed, it is said, by the military and naval power of Europe. The friendly relations existing between Great Britain and the United State’s are taken into consideration by the great powers, but they believe that Great Britain has such interest in the , ast as will lead her to acquiesce in the justice of the program of the continental powers. Germany, of course, is at the bottom of the movement. An exchange thinks that if Emperor Bill isn t more circumspect, he, too, will be saying ’leh sollte mehr Verst and gehabt babea.” Coroorat’ons Must Pay. Assistant Attorney General Boyd has rendered a decision of far reaching impor tance with reference to the war stamp tax. He has ruled that railroad companies and other common carriers must pay the tax on bills of lading and receipts for goods ■’ to be shipped and that thin tax cannot be j properly made to fall upon the shipper j general public. In his conclusions the assistant attorney : general says that the purpose of the law | is plain. It was to tax the carrier and not I the shipper, and the provisions of the law, • he says, undoubtedly fixed upon the ex- | press companies and other carriers the duty ' of providing, affixing and cancelling rhe stamps without extra charge to the public. The treasury department has made a ruling by which business mm avoid having to pay the stamp tax on checks simply by changing the form to receipt. Os course this cannot apply to a check issude to a third party, which would be negotiable paper. The substance of the decision is that if a depositor wishes to draw money out of a bank he can do so by signing a receipt for each payment, instead of writ ing a check, which would have to b stamped. The success of rhe practical operation of this plan would depend, of course, upon the willingness of the banks to conform to it, says the Birmingham News. However, the stamp tax on cheeks is not large and every citizen should re gard it as his patriotic duty to pay it and thus contribute that much to the general cause. According to the New York Tribune, the heroic Hobson has not passed by all the dangers that beset him. Here is a new one, pointed out by the Tribune: ‘ Fame descends on Hobson in cloudbursts and downpouring deluges more perilous to a youthful hero than the sunk ido cr t'-< f'.ing shill. He will need the forti tude of the Roman and the stability of Roman cement to live through it ail with out injury. On such a raging flood of glory. MiLtiades, with ail his trophies, would bob trn and- down like the autumn leaf. The best for the heroic Hobson is that he'will survive unscarrtd the violence of his praises.” The following from the Knoxville, (Tenn.,) Sentinel will interest Macon peo ple: “Mr. J. B. Pound and family left yesterday tor Chattanooga, which city vv-li be their future home. (Mr. Pound sold his Interest in the Tribune at a profit, but has in the Chattanooga News a finq piece of newspaper property to which he will give his attention. Since he came here three years ago he has been identified prominent ly with Knoxville’s push, and it is with sincere regret that we give him up. Mr. Pound and his estimable wife will be missed in many ways.” The fact that yellow' fever has appeared in seme of the camps on the sea coast in front of Santiago does not mean that the plague is to spread unchecked among our troops, thinks an exchange. The resources of 'modern sanitary scionce are at our command, and the success which has at tended reci nt effortis to stamp out this dis ease wherever it has appeared in the United States renders it certain that its spread will be chicked speedily and com pletely. The afternoon press so fully harvests the news of the day, that the gleanings left for the morning papers, -wit'h their news of yesterday, are not w'orth picking up. Tlie Louisville Dispatch thinks that if the country should insist upon a war hero for president in 1900 General Joe (Wheeler Should not be overlooked. We might send Dick Croker and Torn Platt over to the Philippines to establish a Republican government, suggests an ex change. ’Machine made executive committees are no longer in vogue in Bibb county.

Have Faith in Odd Numbers—Trips Begun on Friday Considered Hoodooed. St. Peter! St. Peter! Pray give us a charm, Against the bad eye that would do us a harm. Sailors are the most superstitious class of men in the world. They cling to their superstitions with a tendency worthy of a better cause. Pos sibly it is more from custom rather than from an actual belief in their efficacy. The man at the wheel will tell you that he can not slti i- straight if there is a cross-eyed passenger on board. Spanish sailors on certain days of the week or month lay aloft at sunset and beat the siheaves and pins out of the gear, and the noise they make is a horrid difi. This is said .to have originated in an order given which resulted in disaster. A cer tain Spanish squadron that had been an chored some time was surprised by the enemy, and could not make sail and es cape, as all tlie blocks were rusted and useless. The Spanish sailor has no prejudice against starting out an a voyage on Fri day, that being the day on wilnich Colum bus started on his voyage of discovery. English and American sailors will not sail on that day if they can help it. They would consider the whole trip hoodooed by such a beginning. A sneeze at sea would hoodoo the ship unless it happened to turn to the right, when it brings good luck. Sailors 'have faith in odd numbers, and naval gunners carry out this belief in the number of times they fire off a salute. Whistling for wind is another favorite superstition of the man before the mast. This is a trick when ships are becalmed, as “Whistles rash bid tempests roar,” A “capful of wind” or a “bagful” usually defines the quantity. The phantom ship so often seen by navi gators is not purely the apparition of ro mance. but a mirage, something almost as wonderful, but not of the supernatural order. The horse’s'hoe is still a popular contri bution by sailors to the fetish of good luck. A distinguished precedent is given for this. Lord Nelson -believed in the luck of the horseshoe, and had one nailed to the mast of his ship Victory. A peculiar superstition is that if women are taken on board a voyaging ship some disaster will follow. This may be the rea son why no government ship is allowed to carry women passengers. Sailors, too, prefer a ship that has a masculine name or is called after some man. or is geo graphical.

The Kind You Have Always Bought Signature of If POWDER Absolutely Pure WHAT POWER HAVE STATE COURTS To Act in Bankruptcy Cases, Pending the Going Into Effect of New Law? Can bankruptcy proceedings be insti tuted in the ytate courts pending the time the new national bankruptcy law goes into effect? This is a question which has arisen in other cities through a faulty construction trf the bill approved on July 1, known as “an act to establish .a uniform system of bankruptcy throughout the United States.” The aci provides in its conclusion that it should go into full force and effect upon its passage w'ith the 'additional provisions though that no petition for voluntary bankruptcy shall be filed witihin one month after its passage, and no petition for in volntary bankruptcy within four months. “Proceedings commenced under the state insolvency laws before the passage of this act,” it continues, "shall not be affected by it.” No provision, it will be seen, is made for the ad interim period, and it does not ap pear whether petitions may be filed in the state courts in that 'time or not. This was the ground on which a motion has been made in a Baltimore court to quash procedings in insolvency filed a few days ago against a national bank in that city. It was held that the national act supersed ed all state insolvency proceedings except those filed before July 1, ami that the state court consequently had no jurisdiction. Discussing the mater yesterday, an at torney stated that it was clearly the pro vince of the courts to find a remedy for every grievance when there is none pro vided, and that in his opinion insolvency proceedings could be instituted in a state court until 'the time -that the new law act ualy goes into effect. Such proceedings might then be transfered to the federal court. He held that it was preposterous to suppose that when the federal law left an ad interim period in this way the state courts were robbed of their jurisdiction to the extent that proceedings of this charac ter could not be begun in them. While the Maryland count has not yet ruled in the matter, he was not undecided in the j opinion that a Georgia court would take hold of such proceedings and promptly quash such an effort to throw the case out of court. The decision of the Baltimore judge will be awaited with some interest by lawyers. A'ellow .Jaundice Cured. Suffering humanity should be supplied with every' means posisble for its relief.
