Success of the Carnival.
The carnival is over and we are glad of
it. Trcm< ::dous succumb as it baa been and
.. credit to Macon in every way, it has been
our days of a-ou-t as rapid a whirl of ex
(dtetneot and ■ on as a community and
ts guests had ever indulged in. The city
his tx-en helpe !. Each has done his duty
well and the ramrtt han been and will be
■ ry natiafa'-tory.
The Diamond Jubilee Carnival will go
■wo in history as the biggest thing that
■iacon has ever given up to the seventy'
iifth year of her age, but it la not by any
nan* the biggest thing that she will give
• the Carnival of 181*0 will eclipse tliis
.nd be of national importance. It icoks
a' if it were early to talk of next year’s
<■ lebration but as a matter of fact the eoon
< we go to work in preparation the better,
! - it will take a full twelve months to get
i idy for it. Next time wo will hold ft
three days’ carnival and next year we will
>rrect the few mistakes that were tho
unavoidable result of inexperience in the
1) milling this carnival. We have purchas
ed the experience and will make good use
oi It. But so far as the great mass of our
v i tors were concerned tho carnival did not
eliow that mistakes had been made. It
v. as smoothly conducted and the largest
crowds that Macon has ever seen were
(brought together. We believe that fully a
quarter of a million dollars have .been
turned loose In the city for Immediate cir
culation, and the result will be an increase
In the pulse of trade for many weeks to
come. Altogether the carnival has ’been a
grand success and the sooner we have an
other one after everyone is rested up, the
better it will be for tho town.
Candler Did Not Say It.
While everyone of course deeply regrets
th a. t the vote du Bibb county was aot larger
than it was, Js'tlll no one in Georgia has
reason to doubt not only the ability but the
willingness of Bibb to pile up Democratic
majoritiee when her vote Is really wanted.
Bibb stands out today as the banner coun.y
of the state, though it is true that the vote
of thta year is something of a strain upon
that banner. (But when the ca’l to arms
really comes Bibb generally sets an exam
ple to the rest of the state and some of
HKse counties that in the past have seen
their records compare unfavorably with
that of Bibb, are glad now to get a chance
give us a dig. .Some days ago the Gaines
ville correßpondene of the Constitution
quoted Candler as saying, in con
nection 'wltVthe city court judgeship that
on account of Bibb’s small vote, he 'did not
know whether to go to Monroe or Jones for
a candidate. The folowing extract from a
letter to a gentleman in this city from Col
onel Candler is a denial of the statement
wlillch did Colonel Candler and Bibb county
an Injustice:
Colonel Candler says:
"My attention has been called to a com
munication to the Constitution that I had
•written a letter to an applicant for the city
judgshlp of Macon that il was' hesitating
(whether to go 'to Monroe or Jones to find a
(Democrat to appoint to the place, as Demo
crats seemed to be scarce In Bibb county.
It is due myself to say that I have never
M l any such thing, nor have I ever writ
ten any such letter."
Georgia Library Association.
Considerable interest is felt, among
there engaged in library work in Georgia,
In the approaching session of the Georgia
Library Associate?’.', at Atlanta, on October
.'7 and 28. There is a decided growth in
library sentiment all over the country, and
' ere Is special room for its development
tn Georgia. How to make a library at
ractive: how best to display its wares;
how best to interest the community in
which it is located, and how most fully to
’complish the ends for which public libra
irs are instituted, make up live subjects
: >r discussion at these meetings.
We are glad says the .Augusta Chronicle,
te note active participation on the part of
the Augusta library in these annual meet
ings. and we doubt not that the good effect
of an interchange of ideas, among libra
r ins, and a study of the latest improve
tr-nts. will show their beneficial effects in
the conduct of our own institution.
World's Peace Footing.
Today, according to the October reports,
the six Towers have a military peace foot
ing in the following order: Russia, Ger
ri ny, France, Austria. Hungary, Italy,
United Kingdom. There are wide differ
e ba, ranging from Russia’s 791,802 of
f rs and men to England’s home estab
lishment of 163.569. On a war footing the
order changes to this: Germany, France,
Russia, Austria-Hungary. Italy, United
Kingdom, where Germany leads with
3,000,000, and England takes the foot again
with 369.721.
Dropping the fraction, we find that on a
peace footing, such as must engage the at
tention of congress. France has 70 inhabi
tants to each soldier; Germany, 89; Aus
tr; ; -Hun gray, 124: Russia, 134; Italy. 135:
V: ted Kingdom, 245. In our effort to
maintain our place with these rivals, Gen
eral Miles thinks we need only one soldier
to the thousand of our population.
Gain: Germany, on her peace footing,
has 2-8 soldiers to every ten square miles
of area; France, 26; Italy. 20; Austria-
Hungary, 14; United Kingdom. 13; Russia,
B We again remind the reader that we
©peak only of European Russia and of
England's home islands to bring the com
parison to a level with the question as ap
plicable to us.
When we come to the navy, England is
first and the others nowhere. Let us il
lustrate this: England. 1,000; France, 591;
Italy, 273; Russia, 233; Germany, 222;
Austria-Hungary. 96. In efficiency, if not
In numbers, we shall be abreast of France
next year; ten years from today we should
be second only to Great Britain. Her fleets
are worth now 97.000,000 pounds, as com
pared with 37,000.000 ten years ago.
In mercantile shipping the order is:
England, Germany. France, Italy, Russia,
Austria. There is plenty of room between
England and France for us, and we must
occupy it within the next ten years.
In size of warshhips Italy leads with the
Italia of 15,407 tons, and the Lepanto, ol
15,559 tons, but these are not considered
so formidable as the nine British battle
ships of the Spencer program, the first oi
which, the Magnificent, was launched it
i 1894. and the last, the Illustrious, in 1896
| each with a displacement of I4.i»oo tons. ;
: The most powerful cruisers are the British
j Terrible and Powerful, each of 14.200 tons.
The Rabbit Story.
Perhaps the mot eletrewsmg of all the |
controversies in question k that which has
! arisen over the respective merits of Samp- I
son and Schley in the matter of the San-
| tiago engagement. The Washington Past
says it has taken no part in it, further than
j to enpreas the opinion that a little mere
I human nature and magnanimity in Samp
son's rqport would have gratified the Am
1 lean people, 'but there is no disguising the
( fact that lines have been drawn and that
■ a somewhat acrimonious fired has broken ;
I out as between the partisans of the two ad- '
; mirals. How far it has been stimulated bv I
i either Schley or Sampsbn. the Post sag. ■
; we cannot say, nor it is important to know . I
. Sampson has had the benefit of certain ■
i ebullitions from the secretary t>f the navy j
■ and from Captain A. T. Mahan, a famous ;
( sad sea dog, who writes much better than ;
he navigates. Schley has had n his behalf ;
only popular opinion and spontaneous gen
eral solicitude. Aik! so it stands —or, rath- ‘
er, so in stood—until the Hon. Proctor I
Knott, of Kentucky, came florward two or
three days ago. with a little e- ory bearing
upon the contest, which runs as follows—
•we quote from a especial telegram to the i
Louisville Eve-ning Times:
"Ijebanon, Ky„ Sept. 26.—Ex-Governor ■
Proctor Knott and a distingu »hed profes
sional gentleman of Danville w re discuss
ing tflie claims of Sampson and Schley to
the credit of smashing Cervera at Santiago.
The professional gentleman took the
ground that all the honor of that memora
ble conflict (belonged to Admiral Sampson, I
and was inclined to ignore entirely Com- i
tnodore Schley's part in the affair. The
governor listened until! his companion had
finished, and then with that characteristic
twinkle, in his eye, said:
" ‘My dear sir, it is exceedingly gratify
ng to tne to hear you take the position you
have in this matter. It is like a balm to
my conscience and settles a point that has
worried me many a day.
" ‘I was walking through the woods with
a boy friend of mine when w j saw a rab
bit run into a Sinkhole. We stood ‘around
the whole awhile; then I told the boy to
keep watch while I went to get fire
to simoke the rabbit out. When I returned
the boy had ihe rabbit. I promptly took it
away from him, claiming that it belonged
to mo, because I told him to catch him if
he came out.
“ ’That was over fifty years ago, and you
aro the first man that has ever agreed with
me that the rabbit was mine. I feel now
that I was right In taking it, and my con
science is at reet.’
“The gentleman looked solemn for a few
mnutes, then smiled a feeble smile, and
changed the subject.”
This is not the first occasion upon Which
Hon. Proctor Knobt has punctured a hum
bug, or laughed out of 'court a tiresomo
squabble. Os course his narrative will not
pars muster with the mutual admiration
society of the navy. We neither expect it,
nor do we need it in our busness. But the
ipoint will! not be lost upon the country.
The rabbit story will fill a long felt want.
The Issue in 1900.
From the Chicago Journal Independent.
An Independent newspaper, such as the
Journal, has unusual facilities for sound
ing public opinion and forming a correct
estimate of the sentiment of the people on
public questions. It is also able to state
its conclusions without bias: and it is Its
duty to do so.
We have noticed from time to time that
partisan newspapers have asserted that
free silver sentiment was dying out and
that the campaign in 1900 would be fought
along new lines. This is an error.
Free silver is not a "craze" in the sense
it was a year ago. We doubt if many con
verts are being made. Yet, with tho§e who
believe in free coinage, the conviction is
just as deep as ever. The silver question
has become a matter like the tariff, and
people are not talking silver all the time,
any more than they were formally tariff
when that was the issue.
All talk of there being aty other issue
In 1900 is folly, judging from present in
dications. There is no other issue in sight
upon which party lines could be drawn.
The idea of making territorial expansion
an issue is absurd. The United States will
have expanded by then, and even today the
bulk of the Democratic party is not with
"Young Joe” Bailey of Texts in his oppo
sition to the march of progress and the
doctrine of evolution.
The election of 1900 will be fought on the
silver Issue. Take the word of the Chicago
Journal, an independent paper, for it.
iA New York exchange says: “It is a
somewhat singular circumstance,” said
Mr. J. AL Playfair, of New York, at th?
Normandie, "that both the Democratic and
Republican nominees for the governorship
of New York arc intimately associated with
the South. ’Judge Van Wyck, whom the
Democrats expect to send to Albany, mar
ried a Richmond (Va.) lady, and received
his education at the University of North
Carolina. Therefore Roosevelt’s mother
was a Miss Bulloch, of Gt rgia, a descend
ant of 'Archibald Bulloch, who was ‘Presi
dent of Georgia’ from 1776 to 1777, when the
state constitution c&me into existence. An
uncle of the bold colonel of the Rough’
Riders fired the last shot from the famous'
rebel ship, the Alabama, prior to her de
struction off the coast of France.”
A brother neiwspaiper man gets off the
follorwing, and we reproduce it as it fits our
case, too: “A (prospective subscribed wants
to kno-w if we will take chickens on sub
scriptions? Yes —and .wood ar i meal and
meat and coons and ’possums and fish and
tomatoes and peaches and billy goats and
sheep and pigs and horses and imules and
corn and calves and hogs and rabbits and
wheat, and turnips and spuds scripts script
and—just any old thing you’ve got. We
, have on rare occasions taken money on
subscriptions.—Marion Free Press.
•What's this; a trust of Chinese laundry
men in Atlanta? Heretofore the slogan of
t the almon-eyed Celestials has been “no
trust," or in the varnacular, "no -ticket, no
shoirtee.”
The Savannah Press says Huntsville de
nies that it has the yellow fever, but adds.
’ "Huntsville has the Tenth cavalry, colored,
and this 's worse.”
’ All accounts report the Macon Carnival
a h®ppy success. —Rome Tribune.

It was an idle hour on the New York,
