Peace and (he Carnival.
■After all, no mistake was made in de
ciding to hold Macon's gnat Diamond
Jubilee Carnival this tall, in spite of war
and disturbed conditions. On the contrary,
Macon seems to be Just in lime to cele
brate the formal declaration of ,p< ace. in
fact, she will lie ahead of any city in the
country Already the end of the war is in
sight, and already Macon s gnat Ourniva.l
is well on the way. There is no further
obstacle to the ■•uc.i.ss of the enterprise.
On the contrary, never btffore were con
ditions to ravoiable for an event of this
kind.
With the formal declaration of peace, or
even In fori , the country will lie wild with
enthusiasm. Already our people are evinc
ing a desire to turn themselves loose.
Macon will ofnr them the opportunity in
October. What more opportune, wiiat more
appropriate? Just in time to celebrate
piaee and victory as should be.
And now let our people go to work with
tnthuaiasm. Let everyone realize that
this is to be several times the greatest
«vent in Macon'.- history. Let them feel
that they havt an individual duty to per
form to make it so. Let.the fact fully im
press itself u|M>n all that such a carnival
■will push Macon several years forward in
the march of progress. will infuse our peo
ple, proclaim the greatness of our city in
u way never before attempted and demon
strate the strength and enterprise of our
business institutions and industries in a
■way that cannot fail to bring results.
And, above all, let the Finance Commit
tee of council do the right thing by the
town at once. Let them act immediately,
and remove all farther doubt as to the
success of the Carnival. This much is due
the merchants of Macon who are heavily
taxed for doing business. It is but right
that council should reinvest a small por
tion of their contributing to give them four
or five days of rushing trade and to per
manently benefit the city.
But there is no time to be lost. Now
that peace is in sight, let’s go to work with
a vim to make (Macon's Carnival be an ap
propriate and timely “Peace Carnival,” as
will as the Jubilee celebration of iMaoon’s
75th'birthday. It is a time for enthusiasm,
a time for effort, a time for results. l.Macon
will be the first city in the country to cel
ebrate peace, and she must see to it that
no other city excels her in the effort.
Viva peace! Viva carnival! Viva Macon!
A Spanish general said to a New York
Herald correspondent that he felt no hu
miliation in surrendering to .in American
mi my. “You people," he said, “are brave
mid generous foes. We can yield to you
'without disgrace, but we would rather
have left our bones in Cuban than to have
made terms with the native Cubans.”
Peace and Prosperity.
Yesterday's dispatches brought the im
portant and cheering news that already
Spain had made official and direct over
tures for peace. This should mean the
immediate end of the war, and following
the settlement of peace terms a wave of
prosperity stmh as the country has never
seen before.
Vndoubtedly Cuba will either become
ours, under the settlement yet to be ar
ranged. or else we will occupy such a close
relation to the island that our manufac
turers and merchants will be given a dis
tinct advantage over foreign competitors,
with the same probably true as to Amer
ican workingmen; thus opening up a rich
field to American skill and enterprise.
It is also quite certain that we will take
Porto Rico, if not by conquest, which may
now be impossible, at least as indemnity.
The value of Porto Rico to the United
States is almost inestimable, particularly
in the fact that it is the key to the South
American trade, for which, of late years,
we have been reaching out.
On the whole, the situation is full of
promise for every section of this great
country and for every citizen thereof. But
it is especially promising for the South,
on account of its close proximity to our
new possessions, lu fact, the South should
profit more largely than any other section
by the acquisition of these islands; and
this will be the case if our people will only
■take time by the forelock. The time to
make plans for this is now. Cuba's trade
can make a metropolis of many Southern
cities and bring prosperity to all of them.
There are surely good times ahead.
But not alone upon Cuba are we obliged
to depend for our future and immediate
prosperity. The fact is apparent that the
war has already infused new life into
everything here at home. True, individ
uals and enterprises have been cautions
for a time, but a better feeling has grown
out of the success of American arms and
a reunited country. In the North where
millions of dollars have been idle because
unable to earn three or four per cent, the
feeling is rapidly growing that the South
now offers every inducement for investors.
There is a new interest In tin? South, and
it is going to manifest itself at once in a
substantial way. Besides this our own
people have taken on new life. Almost
everyone has prepared or is preparing to
"let out a little more cord" after the war.
And now that time is almost here.
Look at it as you please, good times are
in sight. Things are going to boom. The
rich men of the future will make their
fortunes within the next few years Mik
it. ‘
Although Sampson took no part tn the
destruction of Cervera's fleet, he will, by
reason of his position, receive the lion’s
share of the prize money. In no single
particular does Sampson appear to have re
flected any credit upon the navy; or upon
the wirepullers who engineered his politi
cal appointment.
Sampson, the Shyster.
If anything further than his first an
nouncement of the destruction of Cer
vera's fleet were needed to prove that
Sampson is a shyster of the first rank, his
official report, which was made public
yesterday, comes as full and sufficient
confirmation.
It is in marked contrast to the reports
of Dewey and of Schley. These last could
afford to be modest and magnanimous, and
they were. But what of Sampson? As
might have been expected, after his first
cablegram presenting the nation his
"Fourth of July present,” he not only puts
himself forward in the whole report, but
he repeatedly asserts that the thing
couldn't have happened but for his wisdom
and foresight; his arrangement of the fleet,
his signals (which were too far away to
be seen) directing the battle. Such egot
ism. such selfishness, such vulgar assump
tion has never before disgraced the Amer
ican navy; and, for the honor of the coun
try and the navy, it is to hoped that
Sampson will go to history as the L-, % of
his kind—the last to gain promotion over
his superiors through a political pull, and
the last to emphasize the seriousness of
such mistakes—not to say official outrage
Sampson shows the smallness, even the
coarseness of bis nature by his refusal to
give Schley credit for even half that he
must have done in order to survive the
conflict. Although Schley's own flagship,
the Brooklyn, did most of the fighting and
was, as has been admitted, the mam
target for the Spaniard's guns-,
Sampson, fearing that too much
honor for Schley will detract from
himself, barely mentions the Brooklyn's
marvelous work but makes a desperate
effort to overshadow her with the Oregon
and Gloucester, and even his own flagship
more than ten miles away.
His report disgraces the navy, dishonors
himself and is a direct affront to the jn
telligence of the American people. It
more than emphasizes the man's unfitness
for the exalted position which he now
holds. It aggravates the offense committed
when he was promoted over his superiors;
put ahead of men who ranked him Isoth in
point of service and in ability.
But, withal, it serves, to accomplish jutst
rhe opposite of what was intended —it
proves, beyond further doubt, that the
credit belongs to Schley and that Sampson
knows it. And it also emphasizes the
nobleness of Schley's nature and his course
in this matter as compared with Samp
son's.
The gains to Louisville by its compara
tively recent trade carnival were immense,
says the Louisville Times. Knoxville has
tried this plan, with pleasing results, to
bring trade to this city, declares the Knox
ville Sentinel. So has Macon, and far this
reason she should not need further urging
to adopt such a successful method of in
creasing her business and advertising her
industries.
The following, which appeared in a
Gloucester, Mass., paper, would indicate
that Jerry is now having his inning:
' I his is to give notice that my wife, who
left my house without sufficient cause, has
returned and is glad to get back again,
and will have again in a hurry. Jerry
A mero.”
Schley does not fail to give Sampson a
mat dig in the following: “The Oregon
having proved vastly faster than the other
battleships, she and the Brooklyn, to
gether with the Texas and another vessel,
which proved to be your flagship, con
tinmd westward in pursuit of the Colon.”
The Omaha World-Herald notes that
"amidst the hurry and worry of carrying
on a war the Republican administration
has foumj time to reward William D. By
num for being its kind of a Democrat dur
ing the late presidential campaign.”
There is little danger of an infection of
yellow fever in Porto Rico. Surgeon Gen
geon Sternberg says that while the fever
is sometimes brought to the island, as it
is sometinns brought to this county, it sel
dom prevails in he interior.
'And now the yellow Journals are engag
ing Lieutenant iHobson to various and
sundry young ladies throughout the coun
try. It really looks like the only sort of
hero who is safe is a dead hero.
By his own admission Sampson’s only
part in the Santiago fight was to push the
Cristobal Colon onto the beach after she
had been captured. And even Captain
Chadwich deserves the credit for that.
In other than these war times the an
nouncement that Corbett is wearing his
hair parted in the middle and plastered
down instead of pomapdour style would
create a remendous sensation.
At any rate, the iMacon immune regi
ment need not be left out on account of
peace negotiations. They will probably be
sent to Cuba to stamp out yellow fever.
Spain did all right to discover us, but
she made the mistake of her life when she
failed to keep 'better posted about us,
thinks the Columbus Enquirer-Sun.
Don Carlos doesn't know when *e is
well off. This pretending business is ten
to one better than the real thing, under the
present circumstances.
We shall probably discover ere long that
that story about General Shafter’s daugh
ter being in Madrid came to us byway of
Mob St. Nicholas.
No less than thirty-one languages are
spoken in the Philippines. Gee! that
would be equivalent to annexing another
Hoboken.
Perhaps it is the Republican plan *o
hold Bryan back until 1900, and then send
him to do garrison duty in Cuba or Porto
Rico.
Sampson should be sent to take Mole
St. Nicholas. That stronghold of liars
would probably surrender at his approach.
They are now rushing Freddie Grant to
the front, in order that he may not be
left entirely out of the official reports.
If Spain has a few more ships of the
name of Alphonso XII. will she please trot
them out, and let us have done with it.
Sampson tries to make it very clear that
he was in command of that fleet, even
though he was not present at the fight.
Macon will be the first city in the South
to appropriately celebrate the return of
peace and prosperity.
Another Alphonso XII. has been found
in Havana harbor. This boat has more
lives than a cat.
But we ought to make Spain agree to
adopt Sylvester Scovel as a .part of the
terms of surrender.
Peace, prosperity and Macon s Jubilee
Carnival will all come along together.
Georgia would be ready to surrender,
too, if she hadn't a colonel left.
Well, at any rate Spain is no "pig"—she
knows when she has enough.
On with the Carnival!

GEORGIA. 8188 COUNTY.
Under and by virtue' of the power of sale
contained in a deed to secure debt made
by D. M. Nelligan, dated Macon, Ga., Sep
tember 23d, 1897. and recorded in the office
of clerk superior court. Bibb county, Ga..
in book 92. page 237, the undersigned will
sell on Tuesday, the twenty-third day of
August. 189 S, before the court house door
of Bibb county, during the legal hours of
sheriff's sales, at public outcry, to the
highest bidder for cash, the following de
scribed property, to wit:
All that lot, tract or parcel of lac 1
situated, lying and being in rhe city ofMa
con, in said state and county, and known
in the plan of said city as part of lot i>n>
her seven, in block number seventeen,
fronting fifty two feet on Fourth (formerly
Mclntosh) street, and extending back an
tven width between parallel lines one
hundred and sixty feet, and being the
property formerly belonging to the estate
of John Flowers.
In said deed to secure debt it was stip
ulated that should default occur in the
payment of the principal debt or any one
of the interest coupons, or should the
taxes or insurance premiums be not paid
when due, then, in that event, the power
of sale should become operative, and such
default having occurred, the above de
scribed property will be sold under said
