To the Merchants and Citizens of Macon.
Ai ling upon <ii»' HUggcstion of many who
ar. in a iKoition to kun* (Macon » need for
au< b a thing, and upon our own knowledge
of th* iniiiiullati and lasting 'benefits that
will accru* to this city through such a
pubiii ation, 1 be N* Wts lias decided *to iSSUe
on October i-i a mammoth Anniversary
and Carnival Edition, which is planned to
be th*- handsomest and most complete pub
lication of th* kind < ver sent out in be
half of any Georgia city.
Tin.-, is m> idle boant. but the brief state
ment of a plan already fixed ui*on, and
which tile management of The News feels
able to carry out io the letter. The News
has a record on this line, as the Macon
public *an doiwitless recall In 189*1, Just
e* v* n .y* an* ac.o, it compiled and printed
an industrial review of Macon, freely in
t< i p* r-.< d with handsome illustrations and
v.iiu.ibl* ati ti* al information, which
until this *lay staxids out in bold relief as
th*- best and most far-r* aching advertise
ment .Macon ever had. This 1891 Trade
Edition of 'I ll*' News is still preserved Iby
many, not only her*' at home, but in vari
<nr pans */f the country as a valuable
Miiivciiir of 'Macon. And such it .was »t
tin time, am* for .several years afterwards;
hut it no longer represents Macon as she
is. It was a faithful and an impressive pic
ture of tin- Macon of seven years ago. But
it does not du justice 'to the Macon of to
day. For there has (been a vast change in
Macon during this ti.ine, as the IX9B indus
trial. or rather Anniversary Edition of
The News will show.
Mai king as it will, along with the great
Carnival, tin 75th anniversary of (Macon's
birth, it wil show in detail the wonderful
strides made 'by this ideal Southern city
during that time. It will tell (Macon’s ad
vantages and picture Macon’s beauty to
thousands throughout this country, many
of whom are but waiting to see to be im
pressed.
Much an edition Is calculated to arouse
Interi 't among those who can contribute
liiim. isiir.'ihly to the progress and ad
vancement oi our city. It is calculated to
bring new capital and new people to this
illy I'liere is no estimating'the immedi
ate and continuous effects of such adver
tising.
We know of people who were brought to
Macon and who invested their money here
through r. adhi'g the 1891 Trade Edition of
Th*' Nows. These people were attracted
b.vt t lie picture there presented and were
led to make inquiries. These inquiries led
to in vest ini.li ts. and these investments
brought new citizens to Macon.
But it is a fadt known to everyone that
there is a woi ful lack of such literature
now in existence. There is absolutely
nothing now in print that would supply a
horn** or investment seeker with the de
sired information with the full and cor
net idea of 'Macon’s attractiveness and
■worth.
Those of our business men who are most
frequently called upon for information of
this i.liaracter will (bear testimony to ,the
fact that they are handicapped, and that
Macon is handicapped through lack of a
publication of this kind- In which is con
densed all needed information carefully
prepared and absolutely reliable.
But it should hardly be necessary to
argue the need for a standing advertise
ment of this nature. To show the absence
of such a thing should alone suffice.
As stated. The News proposes to make
this Anniversary and Carnival Edition the
handsomest and most complete publication
of its kind ever issued in the state. I«t
•wlli bo 10x14 in size, contain either 100 or
150 pages of facts about Macon, freely in
terspersed with half-tone engravings
showing the best views, the most notable
buildings and the most prominent people
of Macon, with the whole encased in f
handsomely embossed cover. An edition
of this sort. 15.000 in number, will cost,
ns near as can now be estimated. $1,500.
The News, of course, will expect the mer
chants and citizens of Macon 'to pay the
cost of such a publication. Wo hope. too.
to make a slight profit on the undertaking,
but we w ill be satisfied .with the achieve
ment itself and the knowledge that it will
contribute to the future progress and ad
vancement of Macon.
It is The .Nows’ punpose to send 7.500 of
these books Into every section of the coun
try on or before October Ist. and to di j
tribute the remainder to visitors during
the Carnival. as souvenirs of Macon. The
time is short in which to carry out such
an undertaking, but with the prompt and
liberal encouragement of our merchants
and citizens It will be done—for the bene
fit and a<l van coin ent of (Macon.
This Week.
It can be truthfully said that no such
sincere interest and genuine confidence
has ever ib.cn felt by the people of Macon
in an) - niilar enterprls? as is now being
manifested in the coming Carnival. And
rightly so. for never were conditions so
favorable for an undertaking of this kind,
rhe people, too, seem to fully understand
and appreciate this fact without continued
argument or the usual "hammering it in"
done by the newspapers. There has reallv
been very little of this sort of thing done,
and yet the interest Is here. It really
seems that the people and the occasion
have met. The people understand that,
notwithstanding past existing conditions
of an unfavorable character, events have
so -haped themselves as to practically
guarantee the overwhelming success of the
Carnival. They almost seem to have con
spired 'tv* this end. With peace and pros
perity almost in sight, the Carnival is the
most appropriate and the most effective
means of herahking and celebrating these
events a thing in which all the people
■"ill eagerly take part.
It has fallen to Macon to be the first to
inaugurate such a celebration, and she
"HI r*-ap the benefits that must neces
sarily accompany and follow such an
event.
But she must go about it. There is no
<ime to lose. The start would better have
been made six months ago, but even sixty
' ays will suffice if we go about it right
Luctoily, the plans have already been pre
pared. lt on ]y remains to execute them
This can be done and well done in the
time that yet remains.
There Is just one thing to be avoided—
a loss of time in providing ways and
means. The cost of this grand enterprise
must be guaranteed at once. Else those
who have it in charge will have their
hands tied for a 'time—perhaps too long a
time. Macon should not be long about
raising the $4,000 necessary to the success
of the Carnival. There should be no quib
bling. Every contributor to the Carnival
fund is likely to get his donation back ten
fold So don’t hold back. It is an invest
ment that you should be glad to make
Therefore make it gladly. Give your part
at once. Let's raise this money in a hurry
A week Is time enough. Can’t we do it
before Saturday night? Let the raising of
this Carnival fund—just s4,ooo—be the
work of a week. It will be all the more
to Macon’s credit that she has shown such
a spirit. The outside public will be given
pause >to expect greater results.
A Blow at the South.
A Washington dispatch states that Sen
ator Bacon, who went to Washington for
the purpose of directing attention to the
gross mismanagement of certain military
camps in the South, and the direful results
that have followed, has unearthed a «plot
batched in the war department to remove
all troops from the South to Northern
points, «he excuse being that climatic
conditions in the South are not favorable
to the health of the troops.
Senator Bacon has expressed just indig
nation at the conclusion reached by Secre
tary Alger, and he has presented some
solid facts in refutation of the charge
which is involved in the contemplated ac
tion of the war department.
It is not clear, aa Senator Bacon says,
how such an outrage is to be prevented,
since the war department has determined
upon this course, but it seems to us that
it would be but rtght and proper for the
commercial, health and municipal bodies
of the South to supplement Senator Ba
con s effort* In defense of the South by
vigorous protests and the (presentation of
such facts as will in a measure counteract
the bad effect which the war department’s
action will necessarily produce. And Ma
con being the home of Senator Bacon,
should take the initiative by sending for
ward resolutions from the Chamber of
Commerce, the Board of Health and the
( ity (ouncll, coupled with facts and sta
tistics showing the adsurdity of such ac
tion.
Senator Bacon has offered the proper ex
planation of the health conditions now
prevailing at certain military camps in
the South, and he has also suggested the
proper remedy. The fact Is, as stated,
that too many men have been encamped
at these places, and too little attention paid
to sanitary conditions and health regula
tions. Where 'the proper course has been
pursued there has ibeen comparatively lit
tle sickness. The sensible thing to do, as
Senator Bacon suggests. Is to divide the
troops Into brigades and establish smaller
camps at different points throughout the
South. As everyone knows, Georgia can
accommodate the entire United States
army, as for that matter, provided It be
properly divided and properly placed at
the many available points throughout the
state. Indeed, there are enough Hood camp
si'tes in Georgia, where the health of each
Individual soldier would be actually im
proved, to accommodate an army twice
the size of the present one.
It is only necessary to point *to the con
dition of the state troops at Griffin or the
immune regiment at Camp (Price to dem
onstrate the fact 'that where the camps are
not unnecessarily overcrowded the health
of the troops Is all that could be desired.
It is rank foolishness for Secretary
Alger, or anyone else, to contend other
wise, and it is a criminal libel to declare
the South too unhealthy for the army.
It is a serious matter to suspect the war
department of any unfriendly feeling for
any section of this country, or 'to believe
that It can be moved by improper motives,
but Lt is difficult to account for Secretary
Alger’s conduct in any other way. He has
already made this war more profitable to
the railroads and to certain other inter
ests than 'would ordinarily have been the
case, but it now seems that he is deter
mined to squander 'the people’s money in
executing other foolish—or knavish—plans
having a similar effect.
President McKinley will be weak indeed
if he ignores the protest of the South in
this matter. And that protest should be
immediately fontheonulng.
Ho! for Cuba!
With the end of Spanish dominion in
Cuba, and the establishment of a stable
government on the island, whether it be
through annexation to the United States
or in the nature of a protectorate, the time
will be at hand when the young American
of pluck and energy can build a fortune
on 'these new conditions.
It is not to be expected that Cuba, even
under the most favorable circumstances,
will prove an El Dorado for the fortune
hunter, for there will be many individual
failures growing out of American invasion
of the island. 'But there are certain plans
which if properly pursued cannot fail to
bring success. In a sense they are the
same plans that would bring success in
our own country, or elsewhere—though,
perhaps, more rapidly and in a greater
measure where the field is practically
untilled, as it is in Cuba. In the first
place, it is necessary 'for the young man
who contemplates seeking his fortune in
Cuba to lay his plans now. He must take
time by the forelock. He must be ready
and equipped to go with 'the first. To
begin with, he must secure the sinews of
success, se to speak. In a word, he must
accumulate now or within the next year,
sufficient money to enable him to take
advantage of the many opportunities that
will present themselves in his new field
of effort. He will gain nothing by going
to Cuba merely to see these opportunities
come and go. He must be prepared to
take advantage of them. *He must save
a few hundred or a thousand dollars, that
he may be prepared for any emergency
and for every opportunity that presents
Itself.
Another important part of his equipment,
a part of his capital, so to speak, is a know
ledge of Spanish. This he can acquire
within a very short time, and he will find
it invaluable to him in his new undertak
ing. With these things and a well devel
oped plan of procedure, an idea that he
has determined to work out in his new
field, coupled with pluck and energy, he
can hardly fall short of success.
Luck may, in a measure, seem to be In
volved in some of the future successes that
are sure to grow out of new conditions In
Suba, but in iCuba, as elsewhere, what
seems luck is more often the ability to
take advantage of opportunities. The
luckless ones, for the most part, are those
who were not ready when the opportunity
presented itself—for there are few men in
the world who have not had an oppor
tunity.
So. young man, if you intend to seek
your fortune in Cuba —and the advice ap
plies with equal force in all things— pre
pare yourself. Equip yourself. Be ready
to seize the opportunity when it comes.
Hon. John D. Little, of Muscogee, is
likely to have a walkover for the speaker
ship of the next House. Tins will be a
deserved recognition of an able young
man—one who bids fair to carve his iyjne
high on the tablet of his state’s history.
It is from such young men that our coun
try draws her statesmen, and those .we
look upon today with mere complacent in
terest may yet gain the attention and ad
miration of the world.
Hogan, who consented to be “it" for the
Populist party of Georgia, is still making
useless speeches throughout the state.
But, then, when we reflect. Hogan has at
tracted more attention than he ever could
have attracted without the Populist party.
The Southern Railway’s answer says in
effect: "We are not afraid of the issue, but
we don’t propose to risk it.” So it at
tempts to hide Sts unlawfully acquired
property in other people’s houses.
Had William waited until now to choose
Bismarck's successor, it would have been
better for Germany, and more creditable
to his own sense of appreciation and judg
ment.
Senator Bacon continues to show that
he is fully alive <o the interests of the
whole South. His presence in Washington
a< this time is proof of it.
So far Sampson has allowed General
Miles to take credW for the Porto Rican
campaign. But wait until Miles wins
glory that is worth stealing.
The South’s part in this war seems to
be to furnish the sinews and the soldiers
for camp duty. The North wants all the
glory and the profit.
In the death of Bismarck and the sur
vival of his Emperor who had not rather
be a dead lion than a live jackass’
The Carnival is a good investment for
every merchant of Macon.
Perhaps we are retaining Manila out of
compliment to Dewey.

The Atlanta newspapers seem to have

Alger seems to be running this war on
the idea that it was brought on for his
especial political benefit.
With one accord the railroads are in
clined to exclaim, "War is a good thing;

Wouldn’t. Take Advice.
A west side youth called the other even
ing on a young woman who resides not.
far from his home, and when he rang the
bell her little brother came to the door.
“Good evening.’’ said the little brother.
“Good evening,’’ said Iho youth ‘ls
your sister qt home, Geurgie?”
“Yes, sir, ” replied the boy, '‘she’s homo.
Do you want to *ee her?’’
“Yes,” said the youth. “Please tell her
I am bort*. ’'
“Won’t you come in?” inquired the boy.
“No, thank you.” said the youth. “I’ll
wait, here on the porch.”
“Better come in,” said the boy.
“No,” said the youth,
“Better,” said the boy.
“No,” said the youth
“Well, maybe you know best,” said the
boy.
“Yes,” smiled the youth.
So the boy went in, and the youth sat
down on the porch and propped himself
against a post.
Pretty soon with much rustling of skirts
Miss Alice appeared in the doorway.
“Mercy! Mr. Skimpie, Is that you?
Didn’t you notice the porch had just been
painted?”
And then poor Skimpie remembered
with a sickly smile how urgent her little
brother had been.
But that wouldn’t remove the paint.—

Jasper’s “Suu D'j Move” Sermon.
The Rev. John J sper, colored, of Rich
mond, Va., preach 1 his celebrated “sun
do move” sermon ar the twentieth time
recently. After quoting the passage from
Malachi, “From the rising of the sun,”
etc., he said: “Anybody tell mo that God
told a lie? You can call me a liar, but you
had better not call him a liar too often.
Some say that we are living on a round
earth. Did any one over teach you that
four corners mean round? If they did, you
had better get rid of those teachers as soon
as you can and got an old stick and broom
and sweep them aay. See Revelation vii,
1, ’And after these things I saw four an
gels standing on the four corners of the
earth, holding the fourwindsof the earth.’
Philosophers say that at midday there Is a
nation that have their feet right against
our feet. When did God ever make a na
tion of people to walk on their heads? If
there is a nation with their feet to ours,
who made them? Does this book say about
them: God don’t know them. The
prophets didn’t know them, and I’ve been
preaching going on 59 years, having
preached 27,000 sermons, and I don’t
know them. 1 don't know how tc get to
them.’ —New York Tribune.

Two Diseases That Cause Their
Victims to Be Shunned by
Their Fellow-Man.
SPRINOFIKI.n, Mo.
Grnti.kmen : I commenced taking P.
P. P., Lippman s Great Remedy, last
Fall, for Erysipelas. My face was com
pletely covered with the disease ; I took
a short course of P. P. P., and it soon
disappeared. This Spring I became
much debilitated and again took an
other course, and 1 am now in good
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 system 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 1, therefore,
cheerfully recommend it.

Springfield, Mo,
Erysipelas and Scrofula cured by P.
P. P., Lippman’s Great Remedy, surely
and without fail.
ftoffirtftiwxn, Mo.
Gknti.tcmfni LAst June I had a
scrofulous sore which broke out on my
ankle. It grew rapidly, and soon ex
tended from mj' 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. 1 think I have
taken almost every medicine recom
mended for scrofula and catarrh, and
rour P. P. P. is the best I have ever
tried. It cannot be recommended too
highly for blood poison, etc.
Yours very truly,
W. P? HUNTER.
P. P. P. cures all blood and skin dis
ease, both in men and women.
Rheumatism, which makes man’s life
a hell upon earth, can be relieved at
once by P. P. P., Lippman’s Great Rem
edy. It makes a PERMANENT cure.
P. P. P. is the great and only remedy
for advanced cases of catarrh. Stop-
Sage of the nostrils and difficulty in
reathing when lying down, P. P. P.
relieves at once.
P. P. P. cures blood poisoning in all
its various stages, old ulcers, sores and
kidney complaints.
