Mr. Morrison Rogers, presi dent of the Chamber of Com 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.

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.
