The Flor ida Tlmes-Citizen believes that more peo ple have been prostrated in the cities of the North by one hot spell than have died of yellow fever In Florida since the days of Ponce de Leon. and of this it feels •ure —more men in the single state of New York have been swept into their graves as a result of one cold wave than have died of yellow fever in Florida.

But her husband afterward was crowned Christian IX. and she became the greatest mother-in-law of the century. With one daughter married to the Em peror of Russia, and another to Albert Edward, heir to Victoria’s scepter. Queen Louise was easily the first of royal match makers. 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. W. R.
