Offices: Corner Second and Cherry Streets: CHAHIBEH OF cojnrnEßCE Endorses the Anniversary and Carnival Edition of The News. Mr. Morrison Bogers, presi dent of the Chamber of Com merce, writes to the News as t i lows: The News (Publishing Company —Genth mon: I desire to add my cordial endorsement of your j projjosed Carnival edition of Nows, in which you propose to present in proper form the many advantages which enti tle Maxon to consideration. Such an advertisement of our city cannot fail to do good, , and deserves the encourage- ment ami supj»ort of every cit izen. Il will be a fitting pre face to the Grand Diamond Jubilee Carnival and will sound the rally for this most , signal event in our history. Speaking for myself, ami voic ing, 1 believe, the Chamber of Commerce, I wish you abund i unt success in your laudable undertaking. , . R. M. ROGERS, J*re«. Chamber of Commerce. Why Business Fell Off. Once upon a time 'there was a merchant who said, "Huh. What do 1 want to ad vertise for? I can’t advertise and 1 shan’t advertise. Who, me? Why, I’ve got more business now than I can attend to. By gee, it keeps me awake nights. Go away, young man, you are a mere insect, I can’t see you. 'What, me advertise? Me? Well, I guess not. 1 don’t have to.” So the man swelled up very largo and puffed like a steam boat, and the i>oor advertising in sect crept out of his office and went over to seo a plain, approachable sort of a man across 'the way, who did not have all ‘the business he could attend .to, and thought ho would advertise. And it came to pass that in a year or no tho plain, approachable man’s business came creeping up and up, because 'the peo ple ha<l seen his advertisement and knew he was alive, while they concluded by the name token that tho large, pompous man across the way must be dead, or at least dying, or 'they would hear something of him. So the large, pompous man’s busi ness dropped off, and he laid the fact ito the monetary system and the tariff, while the quiet, approachable man's business grew and grew, and he laid it to judicious advertising. Cuba needs the light of knowledge. There can be no stable government foun ded upon the corner-stone of ignorance. The United States is entering upon the field as a missionary in the cause of lib erty and education. Study Spanish. Hon. (Hoke Smith has succeeded in in troducing the study of Spanish into the public schools of Atlanta. Mr. Smith is president of the board of education and Insisted upon making Spanish a part of the curriculum. This is a good idea, says the Savannah Press. The language of the fu ture, so far as business and travel go, will be Spanish, for American trade and travel will now extend to Cuba and Porto Rico and mayhaps to the Philippines. When we reflect that thousands of our own people in Texas, New Mexico and California speak Spanish, that millions of people to the south of us know nothing else, it will ■be seen how Important it is. In business a large part of our correspondence must in future be conducted in the Castilian lan guage. The clerk or merchant who has mastered {Spanish will have great advant age in extending his trade to the south ward. Commenting on these views the Memphis Commercial-Appeal says: “We are behind as a nation on linguistic lore. There is scarely a public man in Euroj>e or a scholar of average attain ments who does not speak and understand from three to five languages. We cling to the English with a smattering of Latin and Greek. But the Spanish language will now be studied. The campaign of 1896 made us all financial experts. The war has made us familiar with the geography of the world. Commerce with conquered terri tory will compel us to study Spanish.” Atlanta has taken the lead in a very im portant educational movement and the At lanta Journal says it believes that before long the Spanish language wil be taught in the publis schools of every progressive city in this country. The Sparta IshmealHe says: “And yet what does tbe country see? It sees this man, of the earth earthy, advanced more points in the scale than Dewey or Schley or Clark. With not even the capture of a schooner or the sinking of a 'tug to his credit, (his hero of the naval muck rake is given eight points of advancement to six for he gallant and generous Schley, who found Cervera, cut oft the possibility of his escape and finally destroyed his entire fleet! It would be a matter for amazed contemplation, if anything could be amaz ing in the conduct of a man who would be dominated by such creatures as Hanna, El kins, Alger and Long! Business Building. Manley M. Gillam says many sensible things in an article in the initial number of Success, upon the topic "Building a (Business." Following are a few excerpts: "The great success of a business comes from so conducting it that public support is assured. That can only be had by ap pealing to the self-interest of the public. Taking retail stores devoted to general merchandise for the illustration, it will be found that where equal goods can be had for the least money most people will go. If to this can be added better conveniences and more liberal treatment, the advantage increases. “Where any business has grown phe nomenally, it will be found that some where in its management is a person of ex ceptional force of character; someone who saw clearly where rivals groped or guess ed. But it will also be found that this method of doing business is surprisingly simple, that the only 'secrets’ about it are a little more common sense in the appeal to the self-interest of hU possible cus tomer, and a little more solicitude for their comfort. I can name at least four great and pros perous business ■houses in leading Eastern cities, whose pedigrees run straight back to push carts and peddler’s outfits. “Again I say that the ‘genius’ that builds a business is singleness of purpose, tire less industry, wise economy, and such a presentation as will appeal to the self-in terest of the public—if the business is one that depends upon free-will popular sup port.” When General Fitzhugh Lee shall go back to Havana General Blanco will not be quite as busy as he was last April when he couldn’t spare the time to say good-by to the American. The Real Hero. The Army and Navy Journal has dis covered the real hero of the war. It says: The absolute, real, undoubted (hero of this war is not Admiral Dewey, sinking all the Spanish fleet at Manila, nor Hob son, sinking a portion of the American fleet at Santiago, nor Shafter driving out the fleet of Cervera and capturing an army double that of his own, nor Schley sending Cervera to destruction, nor twenty others we could name, but it is Ensign Curtain, landing at Ponce, and with inimitable cheek sending his ultimatum to the com mander of the Spanish forces at Ponce by telephone! Os all the astonishing incident* of this war nothing for novelty approaches this, and Mr. Curtin should go down in history as the originator of the “hello” method of reaching military results. The illimitable gall of this youth deserves to bo crystallzed in history. Murat and Lan nes, by their capture of the tete du pont at Vienna, have been handed down as the typical Gascons, but Mr. Curtin has out braved 'them all. This Journal, which ex pects to chronicle the official reports of the battle of Armageddon, hardly hopes to record anything hereafter which, for pure impudence, will exceed this occurrence. The only thing which could rival it-would be for another ensign 'to send a district messenger boy to Sagasta with an ultima tum to be answered in fifteen minutes.” The Chattanooga Times of Sunday pays a great compliment to Colonel Lawton of tho First Georgia, long encamped at Chickamauga park, by calling attention to the fact that the First was one of the four regiments out of the sixty which had been assembled there that had practically a con tinuous clean bill of health, because of the good sense shown by the officers of the First in inforcing sanitary regulations. Ah there! Ellijay—Says you! “The garterlees stocking is the latest thing in the way of hosiery. It is made with eye let hob's on each side, which are crossed and laced like a shoe. The stockings keep up admirably and are pretty to look at.” The Tifton Gazette says: Why should the Second Georgia be hauled to Hunts ville, Ala., and back, when the best place in the South for them is at Macon? And then the boys would be at home. Ellijay Courier: “Our young printers are (highly flattered by the compliments paid the paper by a beautiful young lady teach er of the town, and it really makes the old editor smile from ear to ear. The Dawson News agrees with the Sparta Ishmaelite in this: “The ‘hero’ bus iness has been decidedlly overworked since ■the war began. 'Heroes’ have been as common as Republicans in Vermont.” Well, well! A Honolulu paper shouts: “Porto Rico must be ours.” Assuredly that editor has no trouble in handling his pronouns. Those who are so freely advising Uncle Sam not to hold the Philippines have thus far omitted receipts of how to let it go. In balancing the books the Dons will not have to make many entries upon the credit pages of their war ledger. If Russia and England should get to gether in the East China will have to stand a lot of the blows. Blanco declares that he does not propose to “be in at the death.” He may have to think again. The best thing that the Cuban can do now is to turn that machete of his into a plowshare. i . j The 'war correspondents who left Cuba and Porto Rico are awaiting orders to pro ceed to China. It is too bad that the protocol made no provision about that typewriter of Blanco’s. With Cuba’s debt 'to pack, 'Spain will be round-shouldered for some years to come. What They Say About the Carnival. (Macon will celebrate her 75th birthday with a diamond jubilee October 11th to 14th. And all South Georgia will join in the celebration. —Tifton Gazette. Rome Tribune: The Tribune acknowl edges an invitation to attend Macon's dimond jubilee. The Carnival Association will make it a notable occasion. From the Savannah Morning News: The Macon Carnival Association will celebrate the 75th anniversary of the foundation of iMaeon on October 11, 12, 13 and 14. The patriotic citizens who have charge of the arrangements are devoting their time and energies towards making Macon's diamond birthday celebration one that will be re membered in the historic annals of the city. Next to Savannah's and Augusta’s, and possibly to a greater extent than the latter, (Macon’s history is more woven with that of that of the state than that of any other city. Its settlement marked the march of the White man into the heart of the Indians’ country of Georgia. When its first houses were built Macon was an outpost on the line of civilization, and it was from her limits that the American army marched forth to protect the frontiersmen of those days from the savages. Seventy-five years have made great changes in our commonwealth, and iMa con’s celebration is appropriate in marking what time has done. AN ENTERPRISING DRUGGIST.

San Francisco, August 22—The trans port Australia has returned from Manila. On board were seven volunteer soldiers, sent home on account of sickness, and some of them tell a pitiful tale of the hardships experienced from San Francisco to the Orient. They say that instead of being treated like men and soldiers, they were treated like serfs and slaves; that they received only two meals a day of hard-tack, coffee and hash. The coffee, they declare, sometimes had cigar butts in it, and the hash was beyond eating. A CLEVER TRICK. It certainly looks like it. but there is really no trick about it.

New York, August 22—The Journal prints a new Dewey story.
