Endorses the Anniversary
and Carnival Edition of
[he News.
Mr. Morrison Rogers, presi

merce, writes to the News as
lows:
The News Publishing Company
—■Gentlemen; 1 desire to a<RI
my cordial ei»dors< ment of your
proposed Carnival edition of
News, in which you propose to
present In proper form the
many advantages which enti
tle Macon to consideration.
Buch an advertisement of our
city cannot fail to do good,
and deserves the encourage
iin nt and support of every cit
izen. it will be a fitting pre
face to tlie Grand Diamond
Jubilee Carnival and will
sound the rally for this most
signal event in our history.
Speaking for myself, and voic
ing, I believe, the Chamber of
Commerce, I wish you abund
ant success in your laudable
undertaking.
H. M. ROGERS,
Pres. Chamber of Commerce.
The Jt wels in Macon’s Crown.
This month sees the opeujng of the
schools and tile colleges of Macon and to
morrow Wesleyan will throw open her
doers once more. Phe people of the city
have very good reason indeed to be proud
of the magnificent educational facilities
flint the town affords. At present it is the
otrongist imluvi ment that the town offers
to intending settlers.
We do not believe that it would be pos
sible to go out into the world and preach
from the text of Macon, ami find a stronger
clause than that of the eoll ges and schools
of the city.
It is ucknowledgtd that the school Bys
tern of this county is the beet in tho
South, and we believe that we have the
most earnest board of education and the
very best and most efficient superintendent
of any county in the South. We do not at
tach the same imjn>rtance to the Board of
Education as to the superintendent. The
board is a good thing but the superinten
dent is better and more useful by far than
the board. In other words, we could do
without the board, but we could not do
without the superintendent.
Bibb county has all the necessities to ed
ucation. it has good schools and a good
system, well carried out. It is in a posi
tion to give every child in the county a
good education, and even if those children
go no higher than the public schools they
will have by the end of the course received
a first-class eduction, ami a better one by
tar than their fathers and mothers, who
have made successes of their lives and who
pass as well educated people, ever received
or had the opportunity to receive.
A step from the public schools up into
the universities and Macon offers to the
young man or the young woman an op
portunity for obtaining a higher education
that will put thorn on a par with any of
the universities of rhe world.
We believe that a careful education at
Mercer, or at Wesleyan is all sufficient for
any man or woman, It may not carry the
same amount of reputation, but kt is as
goal as Girton or as Harvard, as Oxford or
ns Wellesley. The way to give reputation
to our higher colleges is to send the .boys
and the girls there and then let them go
out into the world as they will and let the
world see the product of the Georgia uni
versities for women and for men. Today
there are shining examples of what these
colleges nave done in Che past and they
are year by year putting themselves into a
IMsitlon to move easily along side the very
highest in the land.
Macon s schools and colleges are the
brightest jewels in her coronet worn as the
queen city of the South. Nothing can sur
pass or outshine them and nothing can
surpass them in intrinsic value.
Sixteen Years Afjo.
Sixteen years ago today, between the
dawn and the rising of the sun. England
won tie right to the suzerainty of Egypt.
Since that day England has held and ex
ercised that right to the benefit of a peo
ple who had fallen under misrule and from
the greatest of the lowers had become the
despised of the earth.
The battk of Tel-el-Kebir was fought
on the 13th of September. 1882, just two
montJis after the bombardment of Alexan
dria and the landing of the British troops
for the purpose of quelling the rebellion
under Arabi, with which the Khedive was
utterly unable to cope. Arab bad control
of the army. It had deserted almost to a
man to his standard and the country was
in his power. The story of the slaughter
of the Europeans in the city of Alexandria
is already well known to the readers of
history. It was followed by the vengeance
of Seymour’s guns and the reign of the
rebel was destined to be but short lived.
The battle of Tel-el-Kiber was the de
cisive blow of the campaign. It was the
death knell of Arabi’s ambition.
From the entrenchments the English
marched on Cairo and then a few days
later hoisted the Union Jack which h\s
floated in Egypt since tjiat time, and now
sixteen years later it floats above Khar
toum and casts it shadow over the grave of
poor Gordon. England’s occupation and
suzerainty in Egypt has been a remarka
ble event in -the world’s history. It has
done more to prove the power of the little
island over yonder in the North Atlantic
—a kingdom no larger than the state of
Georgia. The occupation of Egypt proper
and now the conquering of the Soudan
gives to England another key to the Euro
pean situation. Gibraltar. Suez and now
the Soudan, stretching its fertile valleys
away inimitably to unexplored depths of
the dark continent these possessions, for
possessions they are now by right of con
quest. are destined to play no unimportant
part in the future history of the world.
The powers have asked England to name
a time for the vacation of Egypt. Watch
the answer. England will vacate Egypt in
her own good time and that time will
come only when she is driven from its
shore® by a superior force.
Welcome for Soldiers.
The home coming of the Macon soldiers
should be made an event to be remembered
hereafter and written about in the history
of die city.
These volunteers of oure are as much
entitled to recognition now at the end of
their service as any of the heroes of the
war, and it would ill become the people of
this city if they allowed the opportunity
to pass without doing their obvious duty
by the men who have, many of them,
made great sacrifices in order to do what
they believed to be their duty.
The welcome home of the First Georgia
regiment should be a hearty and a warm
one. It should have evidence on it that it
is not confined to any few men, but that
the whole town is taking part and that
every citizen of Macon appreciates the pa
triotism of the volunteeer who was ready
to fight and who has really done the hard
est duty of the campaign in remaining at
home on waiting ordera.
It would be proper, of course, for the
members of the companies who have re
mained at home to take the lead in tljis
movement to give the soldiers a proper
welcome home, but as soon as they ask
for help it should be and must be forth
coming without stint. If everyone in the
city contributed 10 cents towards a recep
tion fund we would give the boys such a
welcome as has not bean seen since the
days of Noah. But it is not the amount of
money expended on the welcome that the
boys are looking for, it is the hearty and
general welcome that they must have.
Taxes and Peaches.
In conversation with one of the leading
business men of Macon the question was
raised by the editor of the Fort Valley
Leader as to what proportion the value of
Houston county's peach crop bore to the
taxable property of the county. Amo
unt’s consideration was sufficient to
demonstrate that rhe question raised was
one of exceeding interest.
By the report of the state comptroller,
says the Leader. Houston county’s tax re
turns are placed at about $2,250,000. This,
of course. Includes all taxable property.
There were eight hundred and fifty-six
carloads of peaches shipped from Fort
Valley, and four hundred and thirty from
Marshallville. Estimating that three
fourths of Marshallville’s shipments were
Houston county peaches, something like
eleven hundred and eighty cars were mar
keted from this county. The value of these
shipments, in connection with the market
able value of the products of the canning
factories, is easily $500,000 after the freight
charges are paid. Hence over 20 per cent
of the value of our taxable property came
back in returns for peaches alone.
These figures tell a story of remarkable
financial significance. One branch of ag
riculture alone yields net returns of over
20 per cent on all our property. W*e be
lieve that no parallel can be found in the
record of any other section of such profit
able yields on money invested, for the land
and wealth that stand hack of these profits
are only a fraction of the total tax valu
al ion.
Cerfainlv, Russ, Certainly.
Secretary Alger has formally demanded
in investigation of the conduct of the war
department. Between the lines this re
quest has particular reference to the
charges, openly and frequently made, that
the Santiago campaign, in so far as per
tained to the health and comfort of the
men. was a series of gross, almost crim
inal, blunders.
There should be no hesitation In grant
ing the secretary’s wish.
The calcium light of official inquiry is
needed.
Strictures upon the Algerian manage
ment have not been limited to officers of
Inferior rank. They have emanated from
no less a distinguished soldier than Gen
eral Miles himself. Not by innuendo, be
it undestood,, but in language caustic,
nointed and unequivocal.
The representatives of foreign govern
ments who witnessed the fighting before
Santiago were transported to the topmost
height of admiration at the marvelous
valor displayed by our men. And these
same critical observers were shocked by
the derelictions of the commissary and
medical departments. Many of the stories
told are almost incredible.
Investigate promptly and thoroughly.
Ferret out the culprits wherever they may
he.
The public memory is still fresh with
the horrors of the transport-ships. Let
the guilty ones be punished.
Eastman is taking steps <to build a rail
road from that place to the Ocmulgee
river, a distance of about fifteen miles, but
the exact route has not yet been decided
upon. Captain Miller, formerly of’ the
steamer City of Macon, but who now rep
resents the Mallary Steamship Company,
has ’'-omised that if the road is built his
company will put on a line of boats to con
nect with it which will insure cheaper
freight rates for Eastman.
Political Notes
In the Press,
LaGrange Reporter: Troup county ha*
never failed to do her duty and regardless
of any combination, which may be formed
will give Democracy an overwhelming
majority. She should make it this year the
largest in her history and we confidently
believe she will.
Eastman Times-Journal: The Popy-Reps
should go out to hear Mr. Brantley speak
at the court house next Monday morning.
He'll tell ’em how he’s going to "get
there,’’ and he’ll get there just like he
says—the new found fusionitt nestling to
the contrary, not withstanding.
Bainbridge Democrat: The Democrats of
Decatur county must make this month—
September—the hottest campaign month
against radicalism. Populism, niggerism
and all other isms antagonistic to the
great party of constitutional liberty in De
catur county. Smash the Rep-Pop cola
ition.
Thomasville Times-Enterprise: Our Pop
ulist friends will learn, sooner or later,
that there are but two great parties in the
country, the Democratic party and Repub
lican party. And we do not believe they
will affiliate with the Republican party.
It stands for everything they are opposed
to.
Hinesville Herald:. Several Populists
have expressed themeselves to us as being
highly displeased at the action of the
Eleventh district Populist committee in
indorsing Wilkinson, the Republican nom
inee for congress. They feel as though it
was a distinct move backward from the
principles they possess.
Lawrenceville News-Herald: In the
Eleventh congressional district of this
state the Populists have adopted a gold
bug platform, indorsed a high tariff and
pledged themselves to support the Repub
lican candidate for congress. This infam
ous conduct has cooked the goose of "the
great reform movement” in all Wiregrass
Georgia.
Americus Times-Recorder: It is the duty
of every free American citizen to take an
interest in the affairs of his government,
and every man should be interested in
having elected men who have the correct
Ideas of govenrment, and who have the
courage and ability to work to have his
ideas carried into execution. Sueh a man
is Allen D. Candler, Democratic candidate
for governor of Georgia.
Stranee Things
In Georgia,
J. H. Willingham, a farmer, living near
Athens, has an old hoecake baker that s
134 years old. It was made for his great
grandmother. who lived in Orange county,
Virginia.
Dawson News: Rattlesnakes are said to
be unusually numerous this year. Nearly
every day the killing of one or more mon
ster reptiles of this species is reported. In
the Eleventh district Thursday, W. A.
Dixon killed the granddaddy of the rattle
snake family. He was several feet long,
o
W
POWDER
Absolutely Pure
as big around as the calf of a man’s leg
and had a musical equipment of sixteen
rattles and a tin horn. K. W. Harris has
recently killed six of these snakes in the
vicinity of his home.
There is a man in Marietta who has paid
*0 cents a week for the same room con
tinuously for fourteen years. In that time
he has paid $364. The Journal is using his
experience as an economic argument to
show how much better it is to own a home
than to pay rent.
Dublin Courier: “Grandma” Barkwell,
of Maureen, as she is universally known,
has just finished piecing and putting to
gether a quilt, al! done by herself. She
is 91 years of age and gets about much
better than most women thirty years her
Junior. She lives at her old home near
Laurens Hill, in this county, with her
granddaughter, Mrs. J. T. Melton.

Toccoa Record: Johnnie McJunkin was
taking a walk Sunday Evening last, and
kicked over a crystal-looking rock, and.
being of an investigating turn of mind,
noticed some particles of gold shining from
it. He then broke it open and got a sheet
of pure gold as large as a person’s finger
nail and about two times as thick from It,
besides several nuggets as large as duck
shot. Johnnie does not say whether there
are any more there of its kind. We opine
not as Johnnie would have still been found
there had he been successful in finding
ot'her gold-bearing rock.
