St®p the Fight, Say* the People.
The New* publishes elsewhere today a
few opinions from the conservative people
of Macon with reference to the suggestion
of a compromise offered by It yesterday
in the hope of preventing a prohibition
fight in Bibb county.
Many of these expressions are voluntary
and not half of those received are pub
lished today. Enough has already been
heard, however, to prove conclusively
that the conservative people of Macon are
with The News in it* effort to secure har
mony, and at the same time, betteradjust
ment of the liquor traffic.
In the face of the fact that the extreme
prohibitionists say they are opposed to
any compromise, and in the face of the
fact that the extremists on the other side
are disposed to fight it out on the lines
already laid down we are still disposed
to urge upon the people of this community
such a solution of the problem as was sug
gested yesterday.
Hundreds of the most prominent and
conservative men of the community favor
a compromise and believe it can be
brought about if taken in hand right now.
Then, why not make the effort. Surely It
is worth it when it will put a stop to the
great demoralization that a prohibition
election involves. Surely It la worth it
when it will guarantee a system that will
do more to promote temperance and good
order than will prohibition itself.
Why cannot our people come together at
once to secure this desired end? They are
now more united than ever before In their
history. They are determined to push
their city forward and work for a greater
Macon. They realize that a prohibition
fight will throw a damper upon everything
and everybody, put a stop to enterprise
already Inaugurated, and deter business
men in further undertakings. They real
ize that such an adjustment of the prob
lem, as is proposed, will settle the liquor
question for same time to come.
The appeal to the conservative business
element of the community to put the
compromise idea into practical execution.
Your Uncle Mark Harden now fully un
derstands the force of the old adage about
a bird in the hand being worth two in the
bush. j
The Mayor’s Resolution.
The resolution introduced in council last
night by Mayor Price was, unquestion
ably. on the right line, but It did not go
far enough. It was a strong and timely
appeal for harmony, but it ottered no in
ducement to the prohibitionists to lay
down their arms, and we fear, therefore,
that without some such concession, the
appeal will prove a useless one.
Had Mayor Price gone a step further
and offered as a compromise some plan
similar to that suggested in yesterday's
News, he might have secured a favoraole
response to his resolution. At any rate,
he would have voiced the sentiments of a
large majority of the community in offer
ing a reasonable, rational, just compro
mise—one that would place the liquor
traffic on the right basis and give the city
something better than prohibition itself.
, If Mavor Price and his council will
sound public sentiment they will find that
sentiment as much in favor of a further
restriction of the liquor traffic as it is op
posed to a heated, useless prohibition
fight. The numerous expressions of ap
proval that have answered the proposition
made in yesterday's News justifies us in
the belief that a compromise measure
would be overwhelmingly endorsed by the
people of Bibb county could it be left to
a direct vote.
But Mayor Price’s proposition, while
appealing for harmony, offers nothing to
•ecure the desired end. Therefore it must
fall of its purpose. True Mayor Price may
have thought it useless to offer any furth
er compromise, in view of the fact that the
men who two years ago signed an agree
ment to keep down any prohibition tight,
provided a SSOO license was imposed by
the mayor and council, are the very ones
who are now most active in the present
prohibition movement. But It must be
borne in mind that they acted then as in
dividuals, whereas they would act now, if
they would act at all, as an organization,
and we cannot believe that such an organ
isation would break faith with the people
should it accept such an adjustment of
the problem as might, with all reason and
justice, be proposed. We suggest to Mayor
Price the advisability of amending his
resolution so as to include a compromise
proposition on the line suggested by The
News. Then if our prohibition friends re
fuse to listen to reason, if they insist on
having a fight, the conservative people of
the community, feeling that all has been
done that could reasonably be asked for.
will, in turn, refuse to endorse the ex
treme views of those who will not listen
to any appeal tor harmony. If the mayor
and council are anxious to prevent a de
• moralizing prohibition fight, let them
meet the prohibitionists even more than
half way. if necessary. Better this than
to have this community wrought up and
thoroughly demoralized for months to
come. We, too, are for harmony, unity
and progress, but we are willing to make
concessions to secure this end.
Hon. John T. Boifeuillet’s victory Is an
other proof of Gov. Atkinson’s political
demise.
Let Us Be Temperate in Speech.
Intemperance in the use of spirituous
liquors is hardly more harmful and la
mentable than intemperance in speech,
and we cannot think that it becomes peo
ple who are advocating the former to be
guilty of the Latter.
We suggest the above as prefatory to a
few remarks that we wish to make with
reference to the present prohibition con
teat in this county. If the fight must come
(which we yet believe can be averted by
a little timely effort upon the part of the
conservative people of the community) by
all means let it be a clean fight We do
hesitate to express our regret at the
Intemperance of speech already indulged
in by certain partisans, and we sincerely
hope some reform will firat be inaugurated
In this direction.
After all, what is to be gained by such
talk? Abuse is not argument. Who is
convinced by such tirades as have
already been indulged in? Who is bene
fitted thereby? Do they not serve simply
to engender bitterness and bad blood? Is
it not even possible that something seri
ous. maybe tragical, will grow out of such
campaign methods? What, for instance,
have the personal habits of any citizen or
any official to do with the desirability or
undesirability of prohibition?
For the sake of Macon, for the sake of
decency, stop such talk before It leads to
something that will be a greater blot on
the community than any of the other
things complained of.
It is enough to disgust any fair-minded
»an, enough to outrage the decency of
the community to see a rank stranger, a
man whose knowledge of the city does not
extend over a whole week essay to criti
cise. vilify and abuse men who have lived
here a life-time and whose lives are as an
open book.
In the first place, such methods will not
help the cause in which they are employ
ed, to say nothing of the tact that it will ;
serve to array neighbor against neighbor. \
friend against friend and engender bitter-*
nesses that will outlive the present gener
ation of Maconites.
Our Laws for Cuba.
Gen. Leonard Wood, whose whole course
at Santiago, where he has been in com
mand for some time, has been one deserv
ing of praise, has determined to give the
Cubans a taste of Anglo-Saxon govern
ment. He has issued a proclamation, out
lining a form of government. It is easily
seen that it embodies the main features of
that under which the people of the United
States live. The proclamation is to this
effect.
The first article guarantees to the people
the right ot assembly for the common
good and to apply to those in power by pe
tition or remonstrance for the redress of
grieveances.
The second section guarantees the right
to worship God according to individual
conscience, provided there is no interfer
ence with any existing form of worehip.
The third section directs that courts of
justice shall be open to all and that no
private property shall be taken by the
government with out compensation.
The fourth section dealing with criminal
trials, invests the accused with the right
to be heard himself or by counsel and to
have compulsory process to teoure the at
tendance of a witness in his behalf.
The fifth section says no persom accused
of crime shall be compelled to give evi
dence against himself. »
The sixth section declares that no such
person who is once acquitted of the charge
brought against him shall be tried again
for the same offense.
The seventh section provides that all
persons charged with crime shall be en
titled to bail, except in case of capital of
fense, and that the writ of habeas corpus
may not be suspended, except when the
commanding general of the department
deeems It advisable.
The eigth section says that excessive
ball shall not be required, and that no ex
cessive fine, or cruel, or unusual punish
ment shall be inflicted.
The ninth section provides that in or
der to secure the people against unreason
able search, there shall be first established
under oath a presumption of guilt.
The tenth section guarantees to all the
right to write or print freely on any mat
ter, subject to responsibility for abuse of
the right. „
The municipal laws are to be adminis
tered in accordance with these declara
tions of rights, subject to modifications,
which, in the judgment of the command
ing general would be (beneficent and pro
mote the principles of enlightened civili
zation.

Dublin Courier: On Friday J. D. Smith,
the real estate and stock man. who also
1 buys cotton to some extent, sold his cot
ton to 'Bennett & Co., for 4.70 cents per
pound. There were 1,367 bales in the lot,
and the check given called for something

MINSTRELS
Cleveland-Wilson Great Com
bination Here Tonight.
The great Cleveland-Wilson minstrel
combination is here and will be at the
Academy of Music tonight.
When W. S. Cleveland and George Wil
son united their great minstrel shows this
session, after being enemies for years,
was all off with rival -organizations,
which did have a chance to do business
when these monarchs among minstrels
were fighting one another. Separately, W.
S. Cleveland’s and George Wilson’s were
the two greatest minstrel companies, and
their sway over the merry realm of black
comedy, was absolute. Together, they have
the irresistible force of a power of nature,
and the Cleveland-iW lison Minstrels mark
the high tide of minstrelsy. They are the
culmination of all that is great, glorious
and enduring in this distictively American
form of amusement. There is but one all
star minstrel company, but one which
sums the whole black face world of un,
and that is the Cleveland-Wilson Minstrel
Company.
Among the stars are W. S. Cleveland,
who for years has been the most brilliant
ly successful of minstrel managers;
George Wilson, the greatest minstrel
America has produced; E. M. Hall, the
Paganini'of the banjo; John Queen, a na
tional favorite; Keno and Welch, and
many others, including Charles G. Weber,
the eminent barytone. They play only at
the best and biggest theatres in the land.
They are now on a 20,000 mile tour of this
country, Canada and Mexico. In 1900 they
will play in Paris all through the exposi
tion. The Cleveland-Wilson Minstrels will
be the only American show in Paris that
year. Later they will play in London, and
after a farewell tour of this country will
go around the world. When you see a
minstrel show see the best. There is but
one worthy of the name, and that came in
existence when W. S. Cleveland and
George Wilson united the Massive Min
strels of the former with the model min
strels of the latter. They don’t keep with
in a limited territory, but they play the
whole world and are winners everywhere.
No expense was spared in costuming and
staging the great new show, which is, in
fact, two shows in one, for the street pa
rade is double and the stage performance
dual. The first part is absolutely new and
original, and presents a dazzling scene of
minstel magnificence. It is wonderful,
the result being what nothing but un
limited brains and unlimited capital can
produce. It is an all-star minstrel show.
It is more than metropolitan, it is nation
al. Wait for the Cleveland-Wilson Min
strels. They are on an ever victorious
tour. They are above rivalry. They are
absolute. Get your money’s worth.
