Mr. Morrison Roger*, presi dent of the Chamber of Com merce, write* to the News at lows; The News Publivhtng Company —Gentlemen: 1 desire to add my cordial endorsement of your, proposed Carnival edKon of News, in which you propose to present in proper form the many advantages which etrti tie Macon to consideration. Such an advertisement of our city cannot foil to do good, and deserves the encourage ment and support of every cit , Izen. Lt wili be a Utting pre- face to the Grund lhamond Jubilee Carnival and wili sound the rally for this most signal event in our history. Bpoaking tor myself, and voic ing, I peliove, the Chamber of Commerce, I wish you abund ant success in your laudable undertaking. R. M. ROGERS, Pres. Chamber of Commerce. Rome Commercial: Don’t forget the Macon Jubilee, it offers a rare opportunity for a little fun and a pleasant outing. According to the Augusta Chronicle Mime of the war department officials should send their reputations to the laun dry. Augusta Chronicle; "There is one verdict whicii se. ins to be unanimous—'Some one has blundered.’ Hut who? That is anoth er story.” Yu Lu, the successor of Li Hung Chang, has one advantage over his great prede cessor- his name would make a better col lege yell. ( Hustler of Rome: The straw hat will now retire to the chisel and no longer be ■the proverbial straw showing the direc tion of the wind.” Twiggs county has a candidate for the giueral assembly named L. Skitoe. If he is any kin to Amos his chances for elec tion are mighty slim. Montezuma Record: The tun never sets on the United States flag these days.— Americus Times Herald. Neither does Spain. We are in a position to be magnanimous as a nation, as the Chicago Record says Spanish onions ar. I mackerel are creeping back on the bills of tare. Savannah Press: One thing about the Red Cross nurses is that as soon as the work for them runs out in the army hos pitals the fooball season will open. England appears to ba doing fairly well in the lighting line for a country whose «iv.een has resolved never to sign another declaration of war as long as she lives. Merrtwether Vindi<xitor: Let the talk about "cardinal" matters and other such stuff cease and everybody go along and vote for Candler for governor. That’s our ticket." Rome Commercial: "That Republican Stieet. the Macon Teh graph. is rolling the word “cardinal" around under its tongue as a sweet morsel-even after Colonel Can dler has been heard from.” The Boston Herald is responsible for this happy hit: "Secretary Bliss thinks this criticism of Alger is outrageous. This seems to be a case where ignorance is sec retary of the interior." The Birmingham Ledger puts it down •bout r;ght when it says: "A money stan dard that makes the country prosperous is the only standard that is worth consider ing, and theories are worth little.’ Sparta Ishmaelite: "The Democrats gained and the Republicans lost votes iu the Vermont ■•lection. This is a small in dication of the popular drift.—Standing on the Chicago platform. Democracy is strong er than ever before iu its history." Nothing harmonizes all discordant ele- * meats and cements a nation into one indi visible whole like a great public calamity. It was so in America "when the Maine sank under the waters of Havana harbor. It is so in Austria now that the empress has fallen before an assassin’s steel. Wocdberry Messenger: "We do not pro pose to make a hobby of the matter, but we shall continue from time to time to urge that the legislature provide for a board of equalisers in every county, whose duty it shall be too see to it that property is correctly returned for taxation.” The Chicago Record says: "Many peo ple who entertain no great admiration for President McKinley will nevertheless re gret that the return of peace has apparent ly subjected him once more to the domina tion of the man Hanna." This is indeed one of the few regretable results of the close of the war. As the Record well says: Major McKinley owes it to the nation and to himself to assert his manhood and the dignity of his office. Let him turn Hanna down.” It is the duty, as it is the pleasure, of every veteran to love and honor Winnie Davis, and her sufferings and peril touch every heart. Miss Winnie is a young wo man of gracious presence, of an amiable, gentle and affectionate nature, and she has an intellect in which is reflected that of her illustrious father. It is the sincere and earnest hope of all that she will recov er from her painful and dangerous illness to long grace the circles in which she moves and to extend her fair and gentle hand to the rude but loving lips of the old .veterans at many future reunions. For Small Industries. The active interest in the upbuilding of industries, which haa been manifested strongly for many months past in many live communitiese of the South, is main tained wrrh all Its vigor. Hardly a dav passe® without some practical suggestion or without a record of new undertakings upon wise lines. Among recent develop ments is the pkan of Captain James W English, of Atlanta. He contends that if that city is to become the great city of the South, more and larger manufacturing plains must be built th err. » hi. departure for a h'e toll the Atlanta Journal that upon his return he will enter actively uX th’ work of inducing manufacturers to setde in Atlanta. His plan la Ifaat the bUßinesg men and capitalist* of the city should form a semi-corporation with , L should tn > z x * a capital of otherwixM.- promoting the ifte’rS of the community. South Carolina has an awZ advocate of industrial development in the Charleston News and Courier For years it JranX ur wh ag i he growing in thereof!l i, .. u lor home consumption of rh fl he ra u‘ 4 d<vel <Tment at present of the flour-milling business, but is still D i Lhat “ ShOuW bt Th" it'd oth leß ' V1 * ll ° r ’ the Frank » i “ Times putllstonl.

These may be taken as indica tions, says the Manufacturers’ Record of the strong pulse of Southern progress Far seeing and enterprising men realize that there is now an opportunity that the South never before enjoyed, and that it must be token at once that its full benefits may be developed. 1 he Yellow Fever Fear, The New York World wonders what in the mystery of this absurd fear of the dis ease of yellow fever which never yet killed ‘ n any one year half as many people as our familiar consumption takes off every year. It says that there have been precisely one case of yellow fever among the 11,000 at Bonce, Porto Rico, while there are 1,5<>3 cases of other diseases, most of them as deadly as yellow fever, yet this single isolated case has caused more ap prehension than ail the others. It’s the same way in Mississippi and Louisiana. Typhoid and malaria, as well as consump tion, carry off thousands of people in those states annually and no alarm is felt, yet when a case or two of yellow fever breaks out it disorganizes the entire South. Hundreds of soldiers died in Chickamauga. Montauk, and othehr camps, and no cast iron embargoes or quarantine were placed there and there was no panic among the other men or the people in adjoining towns. Over 100,000 people die annually from con sumption in the United States, while many thousands succump to typhoid fever, but we never hear any alarm created in con sequence thereof. The highest mortality ever recorded of yellow fever was less than 15,000 and the World, taking the Cuban war and i'ts attending sickness, claims that anyone who can read plain figures must see that dysentery, malarial fever, and other enteric diseases are unmeasurably more deadly than yellow fever. “Why then,” asks the world, “should there be a panic whenever a case of ‘genuine yellow fever’ occurs?” The Peace Conditions. The cabinet meeting yesterday was one of the most important since the troubles with Spain began, for it had under discus sion the instructions to our peace commis sioners. These Instructions must necessarily be kept an absolute secret, for it would be idiotic to give Spain the least inkling of what our demands shall be. Consequently ■beyond the bare fact that a long session was held, there is absolutely no news con cerning the meeting. This does not prevent the enterprising news purveyors at Washington from send ing out a considerable volume of specula tions on the subject. They are probably constructed on the theory which the yellow journals followed at different times during the war, when there was a strict censor ship on the news of the fleets. This is, to exhaust all possibilities in the way of guesses. We may be very sure that 'all statements as to the instructions to the peace commis sioners are nothing but conjectures, and that the facts will not become public until the treaty of peace is ready for signature. It must not be forgotten that we are treating with a conquered nation, which has sued for peace. We have the victor's right to impose our conditons. They will not be propositions to be discussed and modified, but peremptory demands, which Spain must accept, or be compelled to do so by the United States navy and army. She h<& no voice in fixing the terms of peace. She must accept what we offer. Our Cotton Mills. It should be gratifying to our people to know that wonderful progress has been made in the cotton manufacturing indus try of the South during the last fiscal year. A majority of the cotton mills are running night and day, and all of them are paying well and did so even when the business depression was considered to be at its most acute stage. Judging from ihe pres ent situation there is every reason to be lieve that the supremacy of the South in the manufacture of cotton goods will be recognized and admitted by Northern com petitors within the next five or six years, if not sooner. The progress of the cotton manufacuring industry in this section of the country has been steady as well as rapid, and the prospects for the future are so bright as to encourage the investment of capital, for the reason that the number of spindles in the South have increased In the past year from 1,613.135 to 4,06<,244 or 150 per cent, whereas the increase of the num ber of spindles outside of the South was only 18 per cent from 1890 to 1898. There is no better evidence of the fact that the cotton growing states are to become the center of the cotton manufacturing indus try of the United tSatei. The Age-Herald made the returned chaplain of the First Alabama volunteers say in his sermon in Birmingham that it was a strange sensation for him, after four months of camp life, to preach again to a "civilized" congregaation. Now the paper is apologizing. What the preacher alluded to was a "civilian” congregation. These little things happen sometimes in the best regulated offices. Queer Things in Georgia. The better-half of the editor of the Marietta Journal has a linen towel, thick and well preserved, that is about 125 years old. Her great-grandmother spun the flax and wove the towel. Albany Herald: J. H. Coffey is the own er of a mocking bird and he has recently counted up its age and he can trace his ownership back eleven years. He says that his bird shows no signs of age and that he is as bright and chipper, and sings as sweetly as when he was first put in his cage. Marietta Journal: There is a newsbutch er running on the Western and Atlantic trains, about 30 years old, who has the re markable faculty of remembering numbers of watches of owners who impart the in formation to him. By this means he haa proven a successful detective and recover ed 120 watches that have been lost or stolen from their owners. On Friday he met Rev. Sam Jones on the train, and Mr. Jones had long ago given him the number of his watch, and he tested the butcher’s memory by asking him the number. He remembers the numbers by coupling some word as a prompting. “Chewing gum” was the word, and when told this, he promptly and accurately gave the number of Mr. Jones’ watch. ■ iS w POWDER Absolutely Pure Parks ePacock. of Cobb county says that a turtle three inches wide and six inches lone fell in his yard during a heavy rain of last week.

Mozley, Atlanta: Having been a great sufferer for th**e years from indi gestion, and been treated by many phy sicians, who failed to give me any relief.

News Printing Co Not an Abl < gate, “Thewnrtl ablegate.” saysn well known Roman Catholic priest, “seems to have a weird fascination for the American press, for, though it has been explained hun dreds of times that the representative of the pope in this country is not an ablegate, at least seven out of ten papers habitually refer to Archbishop Martinelli as an able gate. An ablegate? is a temporary repre sentative of the pope for some special func tion, while an apostolic delegate is his per manent representative in a foreign coun try. The funniest thing is that some pa pers use the two words in the same article to describe Archbishop Martinelli. It is as though a writer should refer to Mr. Mc- Kinley os president and vice president. ’* —New York Tribune. Chamberlain’s Flop.
