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.” The members ot ibe eomruu-ion who are to proceed to Hawaii to make tin.il plans etc., lor tiie admission of mat group of islands iiii.o the Liaiui .-slat** a.-, a um mry are tuft men ot gna. prominence, nut oi Sterling Worm aim usiiuluesa —sueu men as diliaiois t ulioiu and Morgan, me appoint cue nt o£ tn< latter uein-g in "me- na ture of a Very grueelul compliment tor has nover-ct using tilot-l* tor toe annexation ot Mi* islands.

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 •*« it-ltn ol the middle class English women— 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. * As a brick fell from a carrier's hod it < knocked down a Spanish flag displayed I from a store front bt low. “That must have i been an American brick,” said a passer-by. “Yis,” said the -hod carrier above, “but it > was of Irish descent.” —'Richmond Dis patch. I Governor Tanner, of Illinois, agrees that r the country is reunited. This makes it unanimous, thinks the Birmingham News. 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.

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.
