Our Veterans.
The Chicago Journal predicts that the
old who were heroes at Shiloh,
Gettysburg and the other great battles of
the civil war will no longer occupy the
center of the stage, but will be relegated
to th- ba kground by the men who fought
in the war with Spain and stormed the
hills of El Caney and San Juan. The
Journal says.
Too gi nerous to begrudge to their sons
any of the glory that they tnemselves have
enjoyed, tilt veterans of 1861-5 must,
nevertheless, view with some sadness the
piospect of being relegated to the back
ground by the men of the 'Spanish war.’
For hat is lhe inevitable prospect. Here
after when one sptaks of 'the war' it will
be assumed that he refers not to the
mighty struggle between states, but to the
Spanish-A merican conflict. The veteran
of Gettysburg, of \ntletam or of Shiloh
who Ing iis an anecdote with the usual
preface. When I was In the war,' will be
interrupted by the question, 'Which war?’
\nd, though to his way of thinking there
was bin one war. lie will find to his chagrin
that his auditors perceptibly lose interest
when they hear him speak of Pickett’s
charge or Sheridan’s dash up the valley
instead of Teddy's Rough Riders and the
heights of San Juan. Nations, like men,
have short memories and young Achilles,
with his harness still on his back, looms
heroic in the public eye, while Nestor
stands in the shadows at the rear of the
stage. It is not pleasant, but It is human
nature.”
The Journal should speak for its own
section and not the whole of the country.
So far as the South is concerned, says the
New Oilcans States, we can safely say
that our people will never cease to honor
and respect the aged and scarred veterans,
who, for four long years, fought under the
s' irs and bars of the Confederacy and
whose heroism and fortitude challenged
the admiration of the world. There will
be no relegating to the background of
these old soldiers in this neck of the
woods, but. on the contrary, they will be
honored while alive and their memory
cherished long after they have “crossed
over the river to rest under the shade of
the trees." We know not what the North
may do with its veterans of the great civil
war. but those who followed Lee and Jack
ron and other gnat commanders are en
ehrlned in the heart of the South. There
is no background for them.
The People Demand It
General Miles has arrived in New York.
Already he is eamping on the trail of
Secretary Alger and. incidentally, all of
those who may be in the Michigan man's
company.
Miles has for .fit d himself with facts
and figures. There will be some reputa
tions badly crippled before he shall have
finished.
That which arouses {he admiration of
the observer, in this contention, is the
of tin ommanling general. No
one knows the art: les of war any better
’han he does
Yet he fearlessly puts them behind him
and gives his thoughts a tongue.
Some one must suffer for the misman
agement of th < Santiago campaign, so far
as per.ains to the health and comfort of
the heroic men.
Miles can indicate with unerring accu
racy the dereli ts.
Let him do so
And then let the punishment fit the
crime.
No matter who the culprits may be—the
sons of somebody or the sons of nobody—
the needless tortures endured by our men
in Cuba and the unmarked graves, all the
way from Siboney to the gates of San
*go, call for vengeance.
Savings of the People.
A bulletin re ently issued from the
Bureau of Statistics of the Treasure De
partment gives some highly interesting
details in reference to savings banks' de
posits in the United States from 18’0 to
the present day The figures for 1897 show
that the total number of people in the
I ui’ed States who had deposits in the
savings tanks was 5.201,137. the amount of
whose deposits was $1,939 376.035. The
average of the deposits was $377.88. The
figures show that the average deposits are
three times as great now as they were in
IS2O. and twice as great as in 1872, while
the number of depositors has increased in
about an equal proportion.
The bulletin also gives statistics in ref
erence to the bank deposits in various
other countries and the Vnited States
make* an excellent showing in the list.
These figures tell a story of thrift among
the people. Individual wealth has been
steadily increasing in the United State*
for the past fifty years and the savings
banks system has been a great promoter
of this result. The number of private in
d.viduals of comparatively small means
who subscribed to the government’s loan
was excellent proof of the financial
strength of the people.
Clean Up the Streets.
In its last issue The New* made refer
ence to the necessity of cleaning up the
atreets before the carnival opens. A pase
ing inspection erf the city has confirmed the
opinion hitherto held, but not expressed,
that Macon’s streets are in about as disor
derly a condition as it is possible for the
streets of any city to be without being pos
itively unsightly. Even in the down town
street* the weeds have been allowed to
grow in the gutters until they are choked
and grass stands a foot high in many of
them. The parks are unkempt. There is
a lack of neatness everywhere that is very
marked and very hurtful to Macon even
under ordinary conditions, hut when the
carnival opens it would be outrageous for
the people who visit Macon from afar to
see ths condition of the streets as they are
at present. It would do the city incalcula
ble injury. It will take the street and the
sanitary force every minute of the next
four weeks to put the street* even in a fair
condition. Would it not be well to go »o
work at once. Action on the part of couj
cil at the meeting tomorrow night would
have a good effect and wo ill put the peo
ple of the city on notice that the city itself
intends to set a good example.
Anarchy’s Atrocity.
The most savage deed done in the history
ot the world, the last and most extreme act
of cowardly fanaticism and brutality and
the most disgusting act of the many hid
eous deeds of anarchy was the slaughter
of the Emprees of Austria at Geneva on
Saturday last. The whole civilized world
revolts and is horror-stricken. Os all the
assassinations of the present century,
brought about by a false condition of
society and the too lax treatment of trea
son and anarchy in its incipiency, this
murder of an irresponsible woman is the
most ferociously atrocious. There is noth
ing to paliate it. There is not even the ele
ment of heroism in it that has attached to
some of those others who, representing a
cause, have laid down their lives cheerful
ly in behalf of the peoiple represented in
that cause. True, it is possible in this
case that the cause was there, but the ob
ject of the savage fury of the oause, rep
resented in the murderer and the stilletto,
was a woman who had no influence upon
the cause one way or the other. No act of
the anarchist done in this or any other
age> for anarchists have always existed,
has bad such an effect upon civilization as
this deed done upon the shores of beauti
ful Geneva, staining its sands with blood
that will have to be avenged by civiliza
tion, and none know it better than the rep
resentatives of that civilization itself. It
will sound the knell of anything that tends
towards anarchy. It will tighten the cords
that are around its neck, and we trust that
the tme is not far distant when the noose
will be drawn tight and the brute be for
ever silenced.
The dastardly murder of the good wo
man upon last Saturday will alienate from
anarchism every iota of sympathy that it
may have had from mistaken people in the
past and will frighten off most of the
younger followers in its dangerous foot
step*.
Disease in War.
The loss of life in war from actual bat
tle is always less than from disease. The
life of a soldier is one of hardships,
whether he is on active duty or lying in
eamp. Disease always rages among hu
manity, when massed together, and when
ever there is a military camp there sick
ness is, despite every precaution, of cer
tain well defined types.
It is interesting to note the comparative
losses from wounds and from disease in
the civil war. According to the figures
given in Captain I’histerer’s Statistical
Record, there were 44,238 killed in battle
and 49,205 djed of wounds and injuries,
a total of 93,443 deaths due to active war
fare.
The total deaths from disease were 186,-
216. This is double the number due to bat
tle and accident. The deaths from the
most virulent disease* were as follows:
Typhoid fever .29,336
Typhoid-malarial fever 5.630
Remittent fever .4,855
Congestive intermittent 4,164
Acute diarrhoa ( . 4,291
Chronic diarrhea 30,836
Acute dysentery - 5,576
Chronic dysentery 3,855
Smallpox ,7,058
Measles 5,177
Consumption .... 6.497
Inflammation of lungs ...,.,...19,971
The present war has a minimum of
fighting. The most deaths are from dis
ease, as is always the case. And the per
centage of deaths, as compared with the
number of sick, is very small, fortunately.
The Americus Times-Recorder says:
‘■’Colonel Bryan doesn’t want to crucify his
men by keeping them in service, nor be
crucified himsejf on a cross of police duty
he prefers to return to the duties that are
set him at home; and Colonel Bryan is
eminently correct and long-headed for en
tertaining and expressing such wise and
patriotic sentiments. Now let the young
statesman from Nebraska show his nerve
and the true metal he is made of by re
signing his commission and going about
bis affairs, as every free American citizen
who enlisted in the war should be at lib
erty to do. inasmuch as the war has ended
and conditions so changed that there is
now no further obligation upon any to re
main in the service.”
A sure-enough treat is in store for all
who attend the Diamond Jubilee Carnival
‘at Macon on October 11th to 14th inclusive.
Each day will be full to the brim of most
agreeable entertainment, and there’ll be
cordial good cheer at every point. A fea
ture of great magnitude will be the pyro
technic display representing the fall of
Manila. Macon Is preparing to entertain
most royally, and the people around about
will offer no objections. They’ll be
there. —Houston Home Journal. •’
The New York Times says that “the are
of weather prediction is not half so dif
ficult and abstruse as some people believe,
and one man who knows the accepted
formulate can work them about as well as
another. By the way. when will the bu
reau chiefs reveal to the public the fact
that thunderstorms do not cool the air,
but that cool air produces thunderstorms?
That cart has been in front of that horse
about long enough.”
"Captain Bob Evans.” says the Knox
ville Tribune and Journal, “was ’credited
with proposing to make Spanish the court
language of a country which Bob says does
not exist. From the clamor raised in cer
tain newspapers about adding Spanish to
the curriculum of American colleges one
might naturally suppose that it is to be
made the language of the United -States."
The News suggests the following dis
tinguished participants in the late Hispa
no-American war for promotion by con
gress; General Incompetency, General Neg
lect and General Mismanagement.
Who would have suspected it. Emperor
William has just made it known that
Queen Victoria is a Colonel of the Meck
lenburg Grenadiers. Little Willy is good
to his grandma after all.
The newspaper war kaleidoscope has
changed again. From Spanish, Manila,
C üban, etc., it is now dervishes. Khartoum,
Omdurman. et cet. This is a year of rap
idly erranging events.
Savannah Press: Colonel -Bryan’s com
mand is to be retained in the service,
which suspicion may pint to as a sly move
to sidetrack the valiant colonel for the
campaign of 1900.
X aldosta Times: Macon’s Diamond Jubi
lee is attracting a great deal of attention
throughout the South. The occasion will
attract thousands of visitors to the Central
City.
Rome Argus: Macon is making grand
preparation for her diamond jubilee.

"Why is it,’’ asks the United Labor
Journal, “that a good woman will stand up
and deny her wayward husband’s short- ‘
comings in 'the face of acts as to his guilt? j
And who will be silly enought to wonder
why the neighbors think light of the gooi
wife because of her brutish husband’s 1
faults? In denying his fault.’ for <him doe* I
she not stamp herself as a falsifier? Os I
course every good woman is expected to
stoick to her husband through thick and i
thin, but she can never convince the neigh
bors that her husband -is a saint when he
he every day demonstrate the fact that he
is a low-bred hog.” These are old ques
tions. but simply ones, and they can be
answered generally by saying -that women
are better than men and their virtues shine
all the more brightly in adversity. Pride
has something to do with it also. A wo
man, though “mated to a clown,” is mated,
and she realizes the oneness of a mutual
existence. What reflects on her husband
reflects on her and what arrows she can
turn from him she also escapee.
Rubbed the Grave.
A startling incident of which Mr. John
Oliver of Philadelphia was the subject, is
narrated by him as follows: “I was in a
most dreadful condition.. My ekin was al
most yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated,
pain continually in back and sides, no ap
petite—gradually growing weaker day by
day. Three physicians had given me up.
Fortunately a friend advised trying “Elec
tric Bitters," and to my great joy and sur
prise the first bottle made a decided im
provement. I continued their use for three
weeks and am now a well man. I know
they saved my life and robbed the grave
of another victim.” No ons should fall to
try them. Only 50c per bottle at H. J. La
mar & Sons’ drug store.
The New York World calls Ben Tillman
“that stern and uncompromising public
moralist, that most fervlous of critics of
public weakness, that honest, horny
handed son of South Carolina toil."
