Albany Herald: We all knew that Ma
con’s Carnival would be a success but It
exceeded all expectations. iMacon made
lots of money out of the venture, but no
body begrudges her good fortune. May her
annual Carnivals continue to grow bigger
and better.
A cablegram from across the seas says
that three Spanish gunboats are cruising
among the southern Philippines to drive
the insurgents back to Manila. Is it pos
sible that Dewey overlooked those three
boats on the occasion of that historic ante
breakfast social call May 1?
Assistant Secretary Vanderlip, of the
Treasury Department, says that each of
the five times that Dewey’s squadron pass
ed along the firing line in front of Mon
tojo's ships in Manila Bay it “expended a
round SIOO,OOO for overthrowing the cruel
ties of Spanish rule.” It was a half mil
lion well invested.
Albany Herald: (Macon’s Diamond Jubi
lee was a success, and not only the people
of Macon, but those who were their pat
rons and guests are satisfied. It was no
fake affair, and we hear of no kicking. By
keeping faith with the people and treating
them well Macon has made friends and
put herself in good fettle for another big
gathering within her gates whenever she
gets ready for it.
The one section of the state in which the
state executive committee expressed a fear
of political confusion, so completely re
deemed by the almost single handed effort
of Colonel Brantley, the one great speech
of Governor Atkinson, and a few by Sen
ator Bacon, is enough to leave an impres
sion that the allies of a liberal coinage
have made the doubtful district the banner
Democratic district of the state.—ißruns
wick Advertiser.
The New York Sun. wh[ch changes its
political opinions with much more ease
than the chameleon changes its color, is
now lauding Generals Wheeler and Lee to
the skies, and this because of the charac
ter of testimony they gave before the
whitewashing commission. The Sun is a
blatant, whooper-up of 'McKinley and Al
ger. A week, a day hence it is likely to
be denouncing the Southern generals as
rabid Democrats and unreconstructed
rebels. The Sun is everything in turn and
nothing long.
Honors seem to be easy at this writing
between General Shafter and Richard
Harding 'Davis,. The general has fired the
liwt shot, which is as follows: "He tried
to tall me where I ought to land the
troops. He thought his superior talents
ought to entitle him to be landed first. I
told him that I knew nothing of his talents
and that a correspondent from Podunk
would have as many privileges as Davis.
This made him mad and he has been writ
ing stuff against me ever since, but I don’t
mind his flings.”
The troops can be brought to Georgia
with entire safety, and tkere will be much
less danger in bringing them to this state,
wher<> the weather is pleasant in winter,
than there would be in keeping them in
the North, where they would be subjected
to the snows and severe weather, to which
many of them are not accustomed, and
which would result seriously to a large per
cent, of the troops, camped in the open
air. The government would hardly be jus
tified in postponing the movement of the
troops to a date later than that first agreed
upon.—Columbus Enquirer-Sun.
At the meeting of the American Associa
tion of General Passenger and Ticket
Agents, to be held in Detroit next week
the question of the rate for sleeping car
berths is to be discussed. There will simply
be a discussion as to the demands and ad
visability of reducing the rates, as the as
sociation is not a business organization
and no action can be taken. At present it
looks as though the rates would not be
changed. It certainly is a little rough on
the travelfrig public to charge as much for
an upper berth as a lower berth, but the
requests for a reduction have so far been
ignored.
Columbus Sunday Herald: The Carnival
at Macon has. in every respect, fulfilled its
glorious promise. Every one commends in
highest terms the management of the dif
ferent departments. The queens were in
deed royal in the magnificence of their
toilets, and those of their attendants Al
most every state in the Union was repre
sented by a fair maid of honor—or one
who was the guest of some prominent
family. The private functions were un
usually elegant, each lady vieing with the
other in the brilliancy of her entertain
ment. The floral pageant, the queen and
her lovely maids of honor, the battle of
- roses, and other festivities attending
this occasion, is pronounced by all the
most beautiful of the Carnival.
Latham, Alexander & Co's Views.
Mom. Latham. Alexander & Co., in
I their excellent cotton review ending Se.p
tenber 1. 1898, ebow that the last crop was
the largest ever raised and that the cer
tainty of this abundant yield produced a
dragging market to the clone of the season
This bouse has repeatedly written on the
eubject of over-production of cotton, but
the plan ten# of the South do not seem to
have been impressed by the truth or force
of their argument. The crop of 1896-97 was
8.756,964 The average export price of
that crop wae 7.45c.’ equaling $327,000,000,
while the crop of 1897-8 was 11,000,000,
which was marketed on an average export
basis of 5.96 c., which equals $338,000,000;
other words, the cotton planters of the
South raised last year 2.442,000 bales more
than they did the year before and yet by
reason of this overproduction that crop
realized only $10,884,000 more than the crop
of the previous year. This was equivalent
to selling the 2,442,000 bales for $4.45 a
bale.
Messrs. 'Latham, Alexander & Co. ask the
vital question: “Are the planters of the
South better compensated simply by the
consciousness of making an abnormally big
crop, regardless of what the world wants
and what they get for it, than they would
be by making a reasonably large crop, fair
ly proportionate with the demands of the
■world, which would always command re
munerative prices?”
Os the 11,000,000 bales of cotton the
United States consumption was 3,443,581.
Southern consumption was 1 231 841
against 1,042,671 bales last year. Messrs’
Latham. Alexander & Co., do not consider
that conditions are favorable at present for
any marked advance in prices. At the
same time they believe that there will be
a large European demand for cotton this
year, and in view of the fact that the war
is over and that there is a widespread faith
in better times and qpickening trade, they
contend that the cotton spinning industry
must improve. Under these conditions this
Wai street firm expects a better average
price for cotton during the current season,
than was realized last year.
Divorce in Episcopal Church.
The question “who may marry?” is play
ing a very important part in the proceed
ings of the general convention of the Pro
testant Episcopal church, now in session in
Washington. As stated in dispatches the
other day, the upper house of the conven
tion has reached a decision on this impor
tant question.
According to the Savannah News the is
sue may 'be briefly stated as follows: The
high church party, led by Bishop Doane, of
Albany, N. Y., takes the position that no
minister of the Episcopal church should
solemnize the marriage of either party to
a divorce during the life time of the other
party. The position of the broad church
party, led by Bishop Potter, of New York,
is contained in the following amendment
to the church canon on marriage:
“No minister of. this church shall solemn
ize the marriage of any 'person who has a
divorced husband or wife living if such
husband or wife has been put away for
any cause arising after marriage. This
shall not apply to the innocent party in a
divorce suit on his or her filing with the
minister as evidence of such innocence a
legally certified transcript of the record
showing a final judgment or decree of a
court of record having jurisdiction on the
subject matter awarding him or her a di
vorce ‘a vinculo matrimonii’ on the ground
of adultery.”
The foregoing was was adopted by the
house of bishops a few days ago by a ma
jority of one vote—the vote standing 32 to
31. It is the opinion in Washington that
this amendment will be adopted by the con
vention, and wil become the law of the
Episcopal church, and it is predicted that
if it should become a part of the ■ma-rriage
canon there would be a division, of the
church on account of it in less than a gen
eration.
Signs of the Times.
The Philadelphia Ledger in a recent edi
torial, says that one of the unerring signs
of national prosperity is the increased at
tendance at our universities, colleges and
other educational institutions. In nearly
all the colleges of the country whose open
ing day congratulations have come under
notice, the freshman classes are encourag
ingly and in some instances phenomenally
large.
The same observation may be made con
cerning the purely professional and techni
cal schools, which prepare the student for
'immediate entrance into a gainful calling.
The return of commercial and industrial
prosperity enlarges opportunities for skill
ed employment, for professional ability,
and enables parents to give their children
a better education than would otherwise be
possible. The college catalogues are in a
very significant sense the barometers of
the business revival, or, at least, of the
trust and confidence of the business world
that the outlook is promising.
It is noteworthy, furthermore, that tbe
bequests and personal gifts to colleges,
universities, art galleries, libraries and to
charities have been increasing of late
years. These contributions, of course, fol
low no settled law of increase, but the rise
in the moneteary value of this form of pub
lic benevolence has been very marked since
1894. An approximate and carefully pre
pared exhibit shows that the amount con
tributed for these purposes in 1894 was
$19,967.1116. In 1895 the figures were $28,-
943,549; 1896, $33,670,129; 1597, $33,612,814.
Os the last mentioned sum, $10,203,459 were
given to colleges.
Increased Exports.
Twenty-five years ago the United States
ranked fourth among the nations of the
world in the value of exports. Today she
stands second to Great Britain, and in a
few years she will lead the world as a man
ufacturing and agricultural nation. The
inventive genius of Americans is responsi
ble for this tremendous stride toward the
goal of superiority in all things pertaining
to civilization.
The increase in manufactures in the
United States since 1860 forms the most
remarkable feature of the growth in ex
ports. Commissioner Greeley, of the pa
tent office, states that it is undoubtedly
due to the improvements in machinery
made through patented inventions. Agri
cultural products have been outstripped in
the race for foreign favor by the products,
of the inventor and mechanic to a wonder
ful degree.,
In 1860 agricultural products formed 81
per cent of the total exports of domestic
products, which amounted tha-t year to
$316,243,323. while manufactured products
amounted to but $40,343,892, or less than
13 per cent. In IS7O manufactures formed
but 15 per cent. In IS7<T manufactures
formed but 15 per cent of the total ex
port, and in IS9O less than IS per cent.
In IS9B, out of the largest total export-;
ever known, they formed 24.06 per cent,
amounting in value to $291,208,358.
Seeking to Avoid Taxes.
As the New York Times remarks, the
one dominent idea of the rich men of that
city and state appearsh to be a frantic de
sire to escape the payment of their taxes.
They are moving out —nominally—and es
tablishing a residence in New Jersey or
Connecticut or Rhode Island with the
avowed intention of dodging the tax col
lector. Colonel Roosevelt, it is true, has
recanted because of his political aspira
tions, and though he swore a few months
ago that he was not a resident of New York
he now avows with equal positiveness that
he is. But the others stick to their guns.
They make no bones of it. They simply do
not want to pay their taxes and they say
so. They are willing that their fellow citi
zens of smaller means should bear all the
expense of maintaining the municipal gov
ernment. while they, the rich men, enjoy
the protection of that government for
themselves and their property without pay
ing a cent for it. Does it not occur to
these rich men that great property inter
ests which refuse to pay for protection may
some daj- find themselves without any pro
tection at all?
A stanza might be added to the school
song which begins, “Jack Frost is a
roguish little fellow,” to the effect that
Jack is the “whole thing" when it comes
to putting a yellow fever epidemic out of
■business.
[fl
&AKII<O
POWDER
Absolutely Pure
The New Orleans States says that apol
ogists for McKinley place upon the war
department the responsibility for the pres
ent sufferings of the Cuban poor. They
urge that the relief appropriation made by
the government must be disbursed by that
department through the agency of com
manding officers in the field. This specious
plea will deceive no one. The president
selected Alger as one of his cabinet and
assigned to him the war portfolio. He was
perfectly aware of his smirched record as
a soldier and his questionable reputation
as a citizen. He has witnessed the prosti
tution of his office since the commence
ment of the war. He sees that even the
super-servicible whitewashing committee
cannot save him from public condemna
tion, yet he retains him in position and
dotnot curtail his power of evil. Alger
possesses and wields a power over the
President difficult to reconcile with any
idea of courage or independence on the
part of the latter. It suggests an associa
tion of “pals," an association of a charac
ter that would make it dangerous for one
to “go back” on the other or to "give him
away."
“Society” should represent all that is
best in our civilization, says the Savannah
News. Those who are usually so classified
have birth and environment, and an ade
quate share of the world’s goods, to their
credit to begin with. They have time and
opportunity to acquire the information and
the polish which should characterize gen
tle folks. They have precept and example
teaching correct deportment almost con
stantly before them. They learn, or should
learn, that kindness, charitable thinking,
regard for the comfort and convenience of
others and for their sensibilities, delicacy
of expression and readiness of resources,
are really the distinguishing characteris
tics of refinement. If our society people
do not combine these characteristics, then
we have not achieved a perfect civiliza
tion.
A man in Wheeling, W. Va., has asked
for a divorce from his wife because “she
persists in eating onions,” and yet we have
the assurance of the Richmond Times that
otherwise there is not a breath of sus
picion against her.

Gentlemen : I commenced taking 1 P.

Fall, for Erysipelas. My face was com
pletely covered with the disease ; I took
a abort course of P. P. P., and it soon
disappeared. This Spring I became
much debilitated and again took an
other course, and I am now in good
condition. I consider P. P. P. one of
the best blood preparations on the
market, and for t hose who need a gen
eral tonic to build up the system and
improve the appetite I consider that it
hp.s no equal. Will say, anyone who
cares to try P. P. P. will not be disap
pointed in its results, and I, therefore,
oheerfully recommend it-
