Do Something for Ourselves.
Macon secured the soldiers on the merits
of the location offered purely and simply.
It Is probable that five thousand soldiers
wIU be located here for the greater part
of the winter If the proper steps are now
taken by the people of the city. If we fall
to take those steps Macon may get the"
smallest share, whereas she Is. perhaps
entitled to the largest on account of the
•uperlonty of her site and the advantages
•be offers in other ways.
In all matters, where the welfare of
Macon and of this section are concerned.
Senator Bacon and Congressman Bartlett
have been undofatigable in ’their efforts
and their good services should be enlisted
aow. They are the committee who can
best represent to the department the ad
vantages and the claims of Maron. They
can possibly do us more good than a com
mittee of a hundred citizens, ft would be
eminently proper for us. however, to for
mally request the services of Senator
Baron and Congressman Bartlett In this
matter rather than to wait for them to
take the Initiative themselves. If Senator
Bacon and Congressman Bartlett will go
on to Washington ®ow and put in their
beat work for Maron we have no doubt
that the effect will be most excellent.
Falling them It is proper to have a com
mittee go to Washington at onee. We are
fortunate Indeed to have got the soldiers
without any of the extra efforts that have
been made by other cities, but it Is not
wise to trust too much to outsiders.
Let ue do something for ’ourselves.
’ Is it Wise ?
The News publiabed the fact a few days
ago that an active effort is being made by
certain citizens of Bibb county to bring
on a prohibition election this fall, the nec
essary petition having been put in circula
ton and all the machinery set *u motion
for a heated prohibition fight in this coun
ty.
Without intending to discuse at this time
the relative men tn of prohibiton or of the
present system of high license. Th.” News,
nevertheless, feels that it is Its duty to ask
a few timely questions as to the wisdom of
such a move at such a time.
To begin with, it is a conceded fact that
Macon is just now beginning to show en
couraging signs of recovery from the
multiplicity of misfortunes and reverses
that have overtaken her within the past
few years. It is a notorious fact that no city
in the South haa suffered so much as Ma
oon from the long financial depression and
other unfavorable conditions. But during
these seven years of stagnation and strug
gle her people have displayed wonderful
patience and remarkable faith in their city.
They are now Just al»ut to emerge from
the cloud that has bo long enveloped them
and their town. There Is a better feeling in
the community, and more concert of action
than was ever before noticeable in
Macon. It U the universal belief that Ma
con has taken a new start and is about to
enter upon a new era of progress and pros
perity. In the opinion of many, the great
anniversary carnival which is to take place
next week, marke the beginning of this
new era, and our people now feel more
confident and determined than ever. We
do not believe any of these statements will
be denied.
Now, is it wlee to disturb these condi
tions at this time? This is the business
proposition that confronts us. We believe
even the most ardent prohibitionist will
agree with” ue that a prohibition cam
paign will disturb present conditions; will
even demoralize things for a time, at least.
It is only a question then of how long this
demoralization will last and what wild be
the ultimate effect of it. These must nec
essarily be mere matters of opinion; some
may ©ay the city can in time adjust Itself
to the new conditions, that the people
thrown out of employment will eventually
find other work, that the property rendered
vacant will find other tenants, and so on.
But they will not attempt to deny the fact
that the city will be seriously disturbed
and demoralized for a time.
So the first question is, after all, the
most pertinent and the main one to consid
er—is it wise to (listurb the present hope
ful conditions at this time?
The ardent prohibitionist, who makes his
prohibition views a part of his religion,
will say it is always the right time to fight
th© devil. But if the devil, in reality, loses
nothing by the operation, while everything
and everybody else must lose, wherein does
the wisdom lie?
iWe do not for a moment believe that a
prohibition election at his time would re
sult in a victory for the prohibitionists.
We do not 'believe that even the most san
guine 'prohibitionist looks for such a re
sult. Th© best he hopes for Is to agitate
the question and prepare the ground for
more effective work next time. So that th6
sum total of his efforts, so far as the pres
ent is concerned, will be a very complete
and serious demoralization of present en
couraging conditions. It would mean that.
Instead of going forward (as everything
now Indicates she will do) Macon will
come to a standstill again, for a time, at
least; and later on take up, if she can,
where she left off. It will mean that those
who have investments to make will hesi
tate, will wait; It will deter all who may
now be ready to enlarge their business or
put on more steam In other directions. And
this does not apply only to those who are
, directly connected with the whisky busi
ness. For no thoughtful business man will
proceed as he is now proceeding until this
Important issue Is settled. He will wait,
and in the meantime his own business and
the community at large will be disturbed,
and confidence temporarily destroyed once
more.
This Is the practical, business view of
the situation, and we commend it to those
who would not sacrifice everything to a
sentiment that can have little hope of be
!ng gratified.
For our part we do not want to see this
now hopeful and united community de
moralized for a mere flash-fn-the pan; for
a prohibition election in Bibb county at
this time can be nothing else—though it
will serve to frighten and disturb the en
tire community.
We do not for a moment accuse our pro
hibition friends of less patriotism t.han we
possess, for many of them are leading and
progressive citizens of the county, aud their
money and efforts are devoted to the up
building of Macon. We know they are con
scientious in believing that in this they are
working for the best interests of their city,
humanity. But we doubt their judgment,
community. But we doubt their Judgment,
and we fear the results of their zeal in this
matter.
Believing as we do, we conceive it
our duty to say so, and to ask those who
are not already committed to this untimely
and useless struggle to think well before
they lend their efforts to an undertaking
that will, we believe, utterly rout the pres
ent feeling of renewed confidence, demoral
ize almost everything and •everybody
and result In nothing more.
Or, if by any chance it is successful, will
simply make Macon send to Atlanta for its
whisky, instead of buying it at home; or
else deal with blind tigers instead of
licensed dealers. All in all, would it not
be best to give the present system of high
heense a longer trial, with such further
restrictions as may seem necessary, rather
man try this radical remedy, that, after all,
does not cure the disease for which it is
administered?
Must Be More Cleanl).
If Macon is to make the appearance that
outsiders would naturally expect from a
city that has been spoken of so much in
public prints for her beauty and enterprise,
her good government and her good health,
. there is much to be done between now and
next Monday night.
The city street force has a full week's
■work ahead of it if the city is to present a
reputable appearance and property owners
who have vacant lots in the city, if their
pride fails them in this emergency, should
be supplied with an incentive by the en
forcement of the ordiance and the action
of the recorder. These vacant lots are an
eye-sore.
The piles of rubbish in the streets must
go if the city is to look passably clean and
the grass should come out of the car tracks
and away from the curbing in the principal
streets if the city is to be seen at its best
and the visitors, who are expected from
every state in the South, and in large
, numbers, are to be favorably impressed
with che place.
i As a matter of fact. It would be better
■ not to have a carnival at all if we cannot
look clean when visitors come here. The
city, as it has appeared in a normal condi
tion tor the last six months would frighten
• away any cleanly Individual. We do not
i mean that it has been uncleanly to an un
» sanitary point, but it has not been clean,
t It has had a ragged and repulsive look.
There has been an evident carelessness of
appearance and neither a city nor an indi-
Ol
POWDER
Absolutely Pure
vidual can afford to be careless of personal
appearance.
The carnival will open on Tuesday next.
Practically Monday nextwillbe the open
ing day, for the people will then begin to
arrive and this is the important part so far
as the appearance of the city is concerned.
The storm has added to the work that is
before the street force and the Board of
Public Works, but if that force is not
enough, council should double or triple it.
Worden’s Charges.
The charges against the war department
made by Captain Warden, who has just
died at Ft. Logan, Colo., are so outrageous
in character that they arouse indignation
in the people.
“While sick of fever at Tampa I was left
ten days without a mouthful to eat, in an
abandoned car house,” he says. “My sole
subsistence was cast-away lemon peels. I
die of starvation. At Tampa I was for ten
days confined in a naked warehouse wlth
ou a morsal to eat.”
It is almost Incredible that such things
could take place in a country as enlight
ened and as wealthy as the United States.
The case should be sifted to the bottom,
and the persons responsible should receive
the punishment they merit
Cotton factories near the cotton fields is
the only solution we can see for the 4-cent
cotton problem, says the Bainbridge Dem
ocrat.
Georgia’s Press Comment,
Ellijay Courier-Sentinel: The career of
Allen D. Candler Is a splendid Illustration
of the value of pluck, will power and com
mon sense in affairs of life.
Baxley Banner: The campaign liar is
getting in some of his usual fine work.
Some of the hybrid henchmen have indus
triously circulated the report that Colonel
Candler has damned the negro vote. He
doubtless damned the practice of traffick
ing in negro votes, but no man objects to
the voluntary votes of sensible negroes.
Dublin Dispatch: Those negro school
teachers who are aiding the Democrats in
their state and county campaign should
be remembered and rewarded. “To the
victors belong the spoils” is a Democratic
as well as a Republican principle, and
those colored pedagogues who are taking
such an active interest in the success of
Populism should not be allowed the same
chance for school jobs as those who aid
the party that will be in power.
Mount Vernon Monitor: A prominent
Third party Republican at Ailey has boast
ed, we understand, that there’s a trick
being worked that nobody except those
who are working it will know anything
about until the day of the election, that
will just sweep the field, and elect the
whole fusion ticket. It is not unlikely
that some rascality will be resorted to on
the heels of the election when it is too late
to correct it; but we are not apprehensive
of the result. The people of Montgomery
county have too much sense to pay any
attention to a lie, a sensation or a trick,
on the day of the election,that has not had
a chance to be met. But you may look
out for It.
Doctors Can’t
Cure It!
Contagions blood poison is’absolutftly
beyond the skill of the doctors. They
may dose a patient for years on their
mercurial and potash remedies, but he
will never be rid of the disease ; on the
other hand, his condition will grow
steadily worse. 8. 8. 8. is the only cure
for this terrible affliction, because it is
the only remedy which goes direct to
the cause of the disease and forces it
from the system.
I was afflicted with Blood Poison, and the
best doctors did me no-good, though I took
® their treatment faith
in fully. In fact, I seemed
* to get worse all the
, while. I took almost
every so-called blood
< i remedy, but they did not
seem to reach the dis-
SSt case, and bad no effect
whatever. I was dis
.*'* V' h■ artened. for it seemed
that I would never be
cured. At the advice ol
'V' a friend t then took
' tiX/ f 8. 8. S., and im
prove. I continued the
medicine, and it cured me completely, build
ing up my health and Increasing my appetite.
Although this was ten years ago, I have nevet
yet had a sign of the disease to return.
