Lower Insurance Rates.
It 'is admitted by the gentlemen appoint
ed by the Chamber of Comerce to look Into
cii.' i|u< »tion of insurance rates in Macon
that the rate is too high, or would be too
high if the <ity bad a department on the
hdl Thin throws the onus of high iusur
an<- •■ rates upon 'he city authorities, and
if they will uuw take the matter up and
.usc<-n.un whether the insurance companies
will agree to lower rates if the city will
extend its department, they will be doing
no more than their duty.
■lt would not, of course, be wise to go to
the expense of such changes in the depart
ment if tiny were to find after the changes
have been made that the insurance rates
remain the same, but it is a tact that the
chief of the tire department himself is of
the opinion that there should be a Hie sta
tion on the hill, not only because of the
insurance iwies, but as a question of pro
tection to property, lu the event of a tire
on the hill under the present arrangement,
the whole of the run is up a steep grade,
and while on more than one occasion good
work has been done by the tire depart
ment in fires on the hill, it is safe to say
Iha the strain on the stock and the una
voidable delaj in getting to the fire would
warrant a very serious consideration of the
proposition.
We do not mean do say that the matter
has not been considered, because from time
to time an effort has been made to bring
it .bout, but so far al! efforts in this di
rection have failed, the principal reason
k; on being that the property owners on
the hill object to having a building located
there. But this objection, involving the
protection of the property of a large num
ber of people who have raised no
obji tion, annot have weight, es
pecially now that it is stated by
competent people, acting as an official
committee, that the lack of a tire depart
ment on the hill not only affects the prop
erty in that section, but effects the rate of
Insurance pai l by ill citizens in any and
every part of the city. Os course every
one wants to know why the lack of a fire
depxnnent on the hill should affect the
business risks in the business portion of
the town whore no one can question the
efficiency of the department, but so long
as the companies stand our and say that
befbre there can be lower rates a depart
ment must <>e placed on the hill, of course
the only way they can be induced to cut
the rates is by coming to their demands,
especially ,us we ours dv.s are agreed upon
the necessity of extending the department
to the hill. Macon has now .is good a wa
tT supply as any city in the country.
It in now in order, according to the
M ashingion Post, for the professional
humor s. to say that the "dead Columbus
will be a live issue before the Havana
commission.”
Georgia at Omaha.
Th.' Transmississippi and International
♦ xpos ion at Omaha w.ll be turned over to
I,corgis September SC*th and extensive pre
parations ure being made by the state
commissioners to have on that event a
grand n*. brat.au. invitat.ons will be pres
ently sent to all the mayors of Georgia
cities, to members of the city councils, to
the Georgia Press Association, and to the
directors of the Cotton States and Inter
national Exposition to join the party and
give the occasion an eclat suitable to Its
menu, importance and its significance.
Invitations will also be issued to the direc
tors ol the Tennessee Centennial Exposi

gation. Ex-Governor Northen, chairman
of the Georgia state commission, is ar
ranging an excursion and has completed
lus ousihe« with the railroads. Tickets
Will be dated September 27 and will be
good fifteen lay s from that date. If 100 or
more are sold a Ihrilman vestibuled train
w.th day coaches will run through from
Atlanta to Omaha w.ghout change. Gen
e a! Joe Wheder will probably accompany
the Georgia warty and if so will make the
speech of the day Governor Atkinson, will
reply to the address of welcome by Gover
nor Holcombe, of Nebraska, and Hon.
Clark Howell, Mr H. H. Cabaniss, and
*'tne Georgia mayors will respond to the
several addresses of welcome from press
and people. It is the intention of the
comm IBs loners co make Georgia day one

a large attendance. The fare for the round
trip from Atlanta to Omaha will be $29.60.
and the special will stop at convenient
places for meals. The trip will require
two nights and a day and a half, as Omaha
is about 1,000 miles from Atlanta,

bilee from October 11 to 14, which is the
celebration of the 75th anniversary of the

Clean Up for the Carnival.
The News again calls attention to the
necessity on the part of the city and the
property owners for making the city ap
pear as attractive as possible before the
Carnival opens.
At present the streets and sidewalks are
in a lamentable condition consequent upon
the paving work and the ebanges of the
grades made necessary by that work. While
it will of course be impossible to hove
everything in apple pie order during the
holding of the Carnival. It will be possible •
to have things in better shape than they
are at presents
The existing conditions are of course
unavoidable and no one can complain if
the sidewalks and the streets are in the
rough, but it would be wise for the city
to turn its street force on to the down
town streets at once and as far as possi
ble improve the appearance of that part of
the. city which will be most crowded dur
ing the Carnival.
Property owners can assist In this work
and at small expense to themselves im
prove the apeparance of their surround
ings. Unless thia is done the improvements
tha’ have come about as a result of paving
where the paving has been done will be
lost upon the visitor and the general im
pression given will not have a good effect.
The sidewalks should, as far as bossible,
be cleared of rubbish, the street parks
should be cut and cleared and the rubbish
should be taken out of the streets. In
some of the down town streets. Third for
instance between Mulberry and Walnut,
the weeds have been allowed to grow to
an unconcionable height and everywhere
piles of rubbish have accumulated that
could b< easily removed.
It seems to us that the next meeting
of council a general and peremptory order
might be Issued to the property owners
and at the same time the public works
hoard be instructed to set a good example
by turning the whole of its force into this
work for the next thitry days. It would
be money well spent, for Macon.
Noble Work.
Among the agencies which have relieved
‘the suffering of our soldiers during the
war just closed none has been more earnest
and active than the Young Men’s Chris
tian Association, says the Atlanta Journal.
It O’gani.el its plan for thix upbje work
won after the call for troops wts issued
and :ts coll for ai*’ in this
liberal response. The international com
mittee of the association 'has expended
nearly $50,000 in relieving the wants of the
soldiers since the war began. The station
ery alone which it has furnished soldiers
in camps wno otherwise would have gone
without, has cost SI,OOO. In ministering
to the needs of the sick and needy sold ers
the Y M C. A. has done a work which Is
approved in the highest terms by army of
ficers and others who have observed it
The work has been done systematically and
thoroughly.
The inernational committee thiuKs that
the efforts of the association should iot
cease yet. Very few of our soldiers have
been mustered out. There is stiil a call in
every camp for such work as the Y. M C.
A. does. Its tents wherever they have
been established have been the scenes of
helpful moral work, and they are needed
in every camp now. The association may
still find much to do for the relief of the
physical, as well as the moral, welfare of
our soldiers. None of our camps are
models. In order to continue the gracioue
work ft has carried on for four months
past, the Y. M. C, A. comimittee asks fur
ther help from the public, It wijl be given,
of course, because the public knows that
the Y. M, C. A. is doing great good among
the soldiers.
It seems to us, Bays the Memphis Apeal,
that the Hon. David B. Hill .night at least
be a dead game corpse.
Kitchener's Expedition.
The history of the Kitchener expedition
in the Soudan begins in March, 1896, when
the British government decided it would be
wise to make a demonstration with mili
tary force from the frontier at Wady Haifa
into the Soudan. Wady Haifa is 600 miles
from the city of Cairo. The Khedive took
great interest in the expedition, and ren
dered all the assistance he could to Gen
eral Kitchener, who was made Sirdar, or
general of the Egyptian army. These Brit
ish forces, supplemented by some thousands
of troops from the native army in India,
in all about 25,000 men, have marched up
the Nile for two years and have fought
several battles with the Mahdists. The
advance was made through the cities
coming's in the face of facts as to his guilt?
vishes received a severe defeat from the
Egyptian army. The British captured
Suarda and passed on to Absarat, but their
progress was delayed by storms, which de
stroyed the newly laid railroad. Dongola
was occupied on September 22, 1896, and
the (British loss was little. General Kitch
ener, with his men, is now at Omdurman,
aud at Khartoum.
The Washington Post thinks this Is a
good time to open the case of Mrs. May
brick.
Aguinaldo's Plans.
The Filipinos are pushing operations in
the Philippine Islands. Their design is to
obtain control of all or as many as possible
of 'them before the peace commission at
Paris begins its work. Spain will then
have but little territory left in the group
when the question of their future control
comes up.
This will make the Filipinoe a party 'to
the negotiations—to a degree, at least.
And in justice their views should be con
sidered. The Unied tSatee. whose theory
of government is that it must rest on the
consent of the governed, should not be Ig
nored in the settlement of this question
of world-wide importance—the future of
the Philippines.
Macon’s Jubilee Carnival.
The Dublin Courier says:
Macon's Diamond Jubilee Carnival, in
commemoration of her 75th anniversary,
promises to be the greatest celebration
ever held in Georgia. The Carnival will
open on the llrh of October and continue
for four days.
The New Orleans Mardi Gras will be ri
valled in the gorgeous night pageant of
Macon Day, when heralded by the blare of
•trumpets and strains of music, the grand
procession of elaborate floats will pass in
review before the King and Queen of the
Carnival, War and Peace, Dewey at Ma
nila, Hobson and Schley at Santiago, Joe
Wheeler at San Juan, the Rough Riders.
Georgia the Empire State of the South,
Macon the Central City, the South of the
Future —all of these will be typified by
different floats, and a veritable panorama,
wonderfully realistic In its effects will be
presented.
The Floral Parade, in which Georgai's
fairest daughters will participate, will be
the most unique and beautiful display ever
presented in the South.
The Trades Display, in which the indus
trial and commercial force of the South
will bo presented, will offer one of the
grandest object lessons of the potential
forces of our country.
Paine's grand pyrotechnical display of
the Battle of Manila, secured at a great
expense, will be the grandest spectacle of
the kind ever seen in the South. It is now
being presented nightly at Manhattan
Beach, New York, to 25.090 people.
Numerous other entertainments have
been devised and during the four days of
the carnival there will not be a dull mo
ment. The railroads have granted a one
and one tenth round trip rate from all
points in Georgia, and all points in Alaba
ma and South Carolina, 150 miles from
Macon. At these rates everybody can af
ford to go to the Carnival. Every visi
tor will be cared for. There will be no
lack of accommodations. No person will
have cause to complain.
"The death of a single American soldier
from starvation Is not a misfortune, but
a crime,” is the way The World puts It.
The Atchison Globe truly says that there
are too many firecrackers who imagine
they are 13-inch guns in society,
"Break up the camps," says The World.
“Scatter disinfectants over them. Send the
soldiers home.”

Farmers and Their Crops.
Sparta Ishmaellte: The cotton crop, al
ready seriously damaged by the Incessant
rains, was still further Injured by tne
storm. It must have been general througn
out the state, and the collective damage
must be very great
Louisville News and Herald: The ex
cessive wet weather is proving a great In
jury to the growing crops in Gwinnett
county, especially to cotton, which is rot
ting in the boll. From present indications
the crop will be at least one-third off from
what it was last year, and the season will
be two or three weeks later.
Blakely Observer: The farmers In this
section are very much depressed over the
crop outlook. The heavy rains have done
much damage. It is feared that a great
deal of corn will be spoiled before it can
be gathered and cotton picking has been
greatly retarded by the wet weather. All
this, Together with the low prices, is
enough to discourage the farmers.
