All Depends Upon Uuumcil.
Ii i.< practically for the city council of
Xa.-on to say whether tire gr»-at Diamond
Jubilee Carnival .sliall bt a mi-ccss or fail
ure it is Jot council to d. urunne this
question tonight.
My its i ouseiit or refusal to grant the
Carnival Ar-. ociationV r« qtlt*t for a dona
tion of sl,llOO dt pend - t.n laic of this
*o>ai undt i iakinr l pon council’s action
dt pi mis tin spirit to be displayed by eit
jc.i in . 'ii i.i.ii for if council frowna upon
tin cuterpr n m.d refust-s to encourage it,
it ,s but natural tnat individual citizens
will Insita to do what the city its a
whole, througn us representatives, will not
do.
Die News opposed th. idea of holding
the carnival ilus year, for reasons already
staled; but, now that the undertaking hits
in i n entered upon, we recognize the fact
that Macon cannot afford to stop short of
success. We would not have this entt r
prise fall through now for SIO,OOO added to
tin* city'? treasury. The city w< old he
damaged far in-arc than that amount by
failing to do '..'hat she halt undertaken to
do. There is not an individual nor a bus
iin ss enterprise in Macon that would not
in- injured by the announcement that Ma
con has been forci d io abandon her pro
posed carnival.
Nor is it a mere matter of city pride that
should arouse our people to action. Sound
buwltiesn Judgment and a due regard for
otii individual interests demand that we
lie up and doing. Tliciness conditions are
not what they should be. There is no use
trying to denv this fact. We must do
something, tln'ii to improve them. We
must make an txt effort. We
must make a noise, we must attract the
crowd, we must create trade.
This carnival will di. There is no doubt
of the file' It ha: been demonstrated
that more money was spent In Macon dur
ing the last carnival than wan spent dur
ing any two wet Its previous. 'With even
the same tnca-iin of a lour day’s carnival
should bring more than twice a« much
money to Macon We may rely on it that
Carnival Week will turn more money loose
In Macon than will be spent during any
other month of t-he year.
Macon need- the advertisement that such
a carnival will give her; our merchants
need the trade it will m ite; our people
need new life infused into them; wo all
need a general shaking up.
The carnival should and will work won
ders in this way. tt will prove a fine in
vestment for the city. In no way can
council better invest SI,OOO of the people's
-money, lly doing so it can practically
guarantee the complete bucccss of the car
nival. We believe the people of Macon,
the proprty owners, the mereihants, the
taxpayers all will appiove of the invest
ment We have heard enough expressions
to Justify this as , rtion. W< know there
would be general disappointment should
council fail ta encourage t ie carnival in
the way suggested.
Macon is moving forward; her people
have taken tin new life, they are determin
ed to bring success and prosperity to the
city; council rtlnnot afford to throw cold
water on such a spirit or stand in the way
of Macon's progress.
4892,527,991 is the Amount.
One of the great acts of the last Csn
gress, to be considered by the people, is
the appropriation bill, which proves the
largest ever made by any Congress. Rep
resentative Sayers, of Texas, minority
member of the House appropriations (com
mittee, has made the following statement
of the appropriations made at this session:
“The total appropriations at the present
session amount to $892,527,991. This in
cludes $1.17,53ti.220 permanent appropria
tions and $861,788.095 for war expenses.
Dtducting the war expenses from the sum
total we have $530,739,906 to be charged
against the civil and ordinary expenses of
the government. It should be borne in'
mind that no river and harbor bill ins
been passed. Considering this fact, the
appropriations for civil and ordinary ex
penses of the government at this session,
and excluding war expenses, exceed that
of any preceding session.’’
The amount of estimated revenues for
the tlseal year 1599 was $390,000,000; postal
revenues. $92,874,047; grand total esti
mated revenues for fiscal year 1599, $482,-
874.047.
Fire Proof Wood.
It will bo remembered that sometime ago
a board appointed by the secretary of the
navy Held quite extended conferences re
garding i scheme to render the wood that
outers into the construction of warships
fireproof by a new process. The findings of
the board were tha ta it would not be ad
visable at the present time to proceed with
such plans. Hut now ex-Secrtary Herbert
lias brought to the attention of the pres
to! secretary such an array of facts sup
porting the practice of fireproofing the
wood, that Secrotary Long has decided to
reconvene the board for further experi
ment and action. Ex-Seereary Herbert
pointed out the fact that fire was one of
the greatest elements that worked the
wholesale destruction among the Spanish
cruisers and battleships and that vvhere
ev« r American hottles-hips had been hit,
even in the case of the tiny torpedo boat,
they had escaped such fires because all of
their woodwork was fireproof.
Reed Warning Platt.
A\ ot k comes from New York that S;>eak
er Reed has been at Manhattan Beach, the
summer home of Senator Hiatt, and that
these two nteresting characters have de
veloped a “sudden and surprising intima
cy with each other that betokens
bus ni>s. The suspicion is expressed that
■Mr Uetd is taking a hand in New Yors
pol.t;;-, at rh* instance of Senator Platt.
«t id ;hat whatever favors the speaker of
the house may be able to do for the sena
tor in the state campaign, vv, 11 be returned
with interest by the -latter in the next con
test for the Republican presidential nomi
nation in which contest Mr Reed, the per
son who gives our this story declares,
means, to be an important factor.
The officers of the signal corps with
Shisfter’s army are keeping pace in estab
lishing "telephonic communications in every
direction where the army makes its move.
Last week a dispatch was received show
ing that three lines of telephone wires
hare -been stretched and that they extend
u.p to wkhin 200 yards of the advance
works of the American army.
Some of the European financiers, in
cluding even the Russian emperor, are be
coming alarmed over the fact Ithat such
large amounts of gold have come to this
country. It is feared that the “gold stand
ard” will be jeopardized if the drain
•hould eotwinue loug, and Europe would
have a panic on its bands.
The Rich May Lscane: the Poor Must Pay.
■ As ihe machinery for the collection of
- the war revenue tax under the law recent
ly passed gets to ruiining it is interesting
to see how quick the cooperations are to
shift the burden of maintaining tae war
I from -their shoulders and outo loose of the
commou .people, the wage earners, and
small householders.
Had the Democrats had power to draft
the revenue measure it would have been
a very different iaw and would have mailt
it much mor; dibicult for the rich to es
cape their snare of taxation and shift the
1 burden to the shoulders of those- less able
to bear it. Some good features were em
bodied in the law as the result of the ef
forts of the bimetallists. A ruling of the
courts junt Obtained is to the effect that
the transmitters of telegraph messages
must pay for the stamps for them. The
express companies are making the shipper*
j»ay the -har< of the war tax it was evi
detiiily intended the companies themselves
should assume. And so it goes wiin other
rich corporation*. But ’he poor have to
pay the war taxes in full.
As the New- Yotk Journal puts it: “We
are warring for humanity but we wring
the com: of the war from that part of hu
manity least able to pay it.”

Recently Gng-l.ah physicians have again
been empnatic in cm ip condemnation of
what they term the "American rocking
en.ur habit.” They affirm tu.it tins habit
is the cause of almost all of the nervous
d.iiasc.-, ol American women. Instead of
ii-si.ng, me constant effort ol rocr.mg uses
<cs much loree of me -lower muscles of tue
oack ,<nd of the legs as would suffice to
i tin a sew ing machine for the same length
ot tune. Rockers are rare in England, and
to mi* ii a sou, it is claimed, is due the

eo *upi i iot to that of our own.
The Spanish prisoners will not be allow
ed to cairy their arms home with them.
To have acted otherwise would have been
a big blunder, :,u/s the Birmingham News.
T'ne moral effect of Spanish soldiers re
turning Horn - disarmed will he vastly dif
fcreii-t from that created by permitting
them to carry back their guns. It will
leave ho room for the impression that
Total and his men “withdrew,” hut will
prove conclusively that they were captur
ed.
Maryland will hold its Democratic state
convention tomorrow, it is announced that
“new blood” is lo he infused into the party
m-aiiagvmeat, and that the congressional
campaigns will be mainly conducted by ibe
youngt r men of tin- party. On the eastern
shore all the prominent Democrats are lor
tree silver, and the campaign will, it is
now behoved, he made oil this issue, in
-the other districts this question will be
kept somewhat in the background.
It looks now as tiiougti Governor Pin
gree would bt it nominated by the 'Mich
igan Republicans. He is not the pure
lit,publican article tlia-t the party leaders
would like; lie has insisted upon and car
ried oui too many reforms helpful to the
people, •besides being tinctured with bi
metallism. lint the bosses seem to be
alraid ui antagonize him. and for'the sake
of harmony will accept his candidacy.
Tluh London Mail has investigated the
t question and finds itself “compelled to ac
, knowledge the correctness of the state
, meat” that warships, armor and guns of
the United States are superior to those of
any other nation —an impression which is
, rapidly gaining round the world over.

HIGH PRAISE.
Dewey Desires that China
men be Recognized in
Some Manner.
Washington, July *l9—ln further proof
of the nobility of It he character of Admiral
’ Dewey, his recommendation to the United
' States government, now filed in the state
f department, that the Chinese servants and
1 other Chinese, who were on the ships o-f
’ his squadron during the battle at Manila,
and who rendered most efficient service
on that occasion and behaved in a most
exemplary manner, be recognized by this
[ government in some stable manner.
He seems to think men who battled for
our country should not be excluded from
* ill. In referring to those Chinese, he says
thafc they showed much courage and energy
in the face of the enemy; that they are
certainly worthy the treatment accorded
citizens of other countries who have thus
exposed their lives for the country in
) which they seek citizenship. He is decid
? edly in fa.vor of recognizing these brave
and useful Chinese in such away as shall
t admit th. in to the United States in ease
s .they desire to enter it. and to become citi
f zens of it.
t
Mm The way people eat and
I 'n : drink has perilous conse
rnltt'Ptlli- quences. Very few people
; know how to treat their
jKgqSy" /stomachs. Eating too much;
- - or not enough; or the wrong
'ti l / kind of food; or at the wrong
: 3r] I jjqj time—gets the digestive organs
!|HR-! into such a thoroughly disor
ijEj. ;) •! do re d condition that at last noth-
J jjijlj i\j I iug whatever can be digested,
t .IP* When the appetite fails and the
, UP liver becomes sluggish, the whole
!m system i- dragged down and deadened
f (ju Iby imperfect nutrition. There is noth
!i\ ing in the world which restores or
-1 panic tone and vigor so quickly and
scientifically <ts In. Pierce’s Golden Med
ical Discovery.
It acts directly upon the nutritive organ
ism; it gives the stomach power to extract a
high percentage of nourishment from the
food, and enables the liver to filter all bili
ous poisons out of the circulation; it puts
the red. vitalizing life giving elements into
t the Mood, and builds up solid flesh, mus
cular force attd healthy nerve-power.
In all debilitated conditions and wasting
diseases it is vastly superior to malt extracts
or any mere temporary stimulants. It gives
permanent strength. It is better than nau
seous emulsions, because it is agreeable to
1 the weakest stomachs.
Whenever constipation is one of the
complicating causes of disease, the most
perfect remedy is Dr. Pierce’s Tleasant
Pellets, which are always effective, yet ab
solutely mild and harmless. There never
was any remedy invented which can take
i their place.
* “In August, 1595, I was taken down with
what my physician pronounced consumption,”
writes Ira D Herrins, of Needmore. Levy Co.
Florida. “My trouble continued for several
a months. Four bottles of I>r. Pierce’s Gulden
Medical Discovery cured me.”

Two Diseases That Cause Their
Victims to Be Shunned by
Their FeSiow-Man.

Gkntlkmkn : i eomtncUced taking; P.
P. P., I.iptuuan’s Great Remedy, last
Fall, for Erysipelas. Afy face was com
pletely covered with the disease ; 1 took
a short course of P. P. P.. and it soon
disappeared. 1 his Spring 1 became
much debilitated and again took an
other course, and 1 am now in goo.!
condition. I consider P. P. P. one of
the best blood preparations on the
market , and for those who need a gen
eral tonic to build up the sysi«m and
improve the appetite I consider that it
has no equal. Will say, anyone who
cares to try P. P. P. will not be disap
pointed in its results, and I, therefore,
cheerfully recommend it.

Erysipelas and Scrofula cured by P.
P. P., Lippman’s Great Remedy, surely
and without fail,
SrnixG field, Mo.
Grntlrmen: Last June 1 had a
scrofulous sore which broke out on my
ankle. It grew rapidly, and soon ex
tended from my ankle to my knee. I
got one bottle of your P. P. p., Lipp
man’s Great Remedy, and was agree
ably surprised at the result. The entire
sore healed at once. I think 1 have
taken almost every medicine recom
mended for scrofula and catarrh, and
your P. P. P. is the best 1 have evei
tried. It cannot be recommended too
highly for blood poison, etc.
Yours very truly,
W. P. HUNTER.
P. P. T. cures all blood and skin dis
ease, both in men and women.
Rheumatism, which makes man's life

edy. It makes a PERMANENT cure.
P. P. P. is the great and only remedy
for advanced eases of catarrh. Stop
page of the nostrils and difficulty in
breathing when lying down, P. P. P.
relieves a t once.
P. P. P. cures blood poisoning in all
its various stages, old ulcers, sores and
kidney complaints.
