“Hill Crest.”
A letter was read from Governor Dyer,
of Rhode Island, expressing his regret that
the flag from bio state failed to reach here
in time, and gave hie consent to it being
presented to the Public Library.
The president then read his message,
which is ar follows:
Macon, (la., Nov. 4th. 1898.
To the Executive Committee Macon Gar
nival Association.
Gentlemen Macon's Diamond Jub-iln? is
tin event of the past. You who have been
the buildups of that grand celebration have
every r> on to feel that the earnest ef
forts that you put forth have been thor
oughly apreciated by the people for whom
you tailored.
When we consider the disadvantages and
olielacb: that we had to overcome. I think
it. may be properly said that it surpassed
anything of it* king that has ever been
projected Our labors began on July Bth
last, when the executive committee decld
d.-d that as the war was practically over.
That the carnival should be held. If you
will remember, at that time a large num
ber of our citizens earnestly believed that
the carnival could not be successfully
carried out. hut we overcame this oppo
sition, and have, the satisfaction of know
ing that the carnival had the earnest sup
port of all citizens of Macon, united for a
common cause as they were never before;
and if nothing else had been acconiplis.sl
beyond showing the people of Macon what
this city can accomplish by united effort,
had the carnival i-ol three -times what it
did. the money would have been well
spent.
The number of visitors, from the reports
that I gather from the railroads, were
more than double wliat they had ever been
nt nny other celebration in the history of
the city. When you recall that the week
previous to the carnival a. terrible storm
swept the entire state, destroying millions
of dollars worth of property, and with cot
ion at the lowest price ever known, such
nn atendance was not anticipated by the
most sanguine workers.
The report of tile finance committee
shows that we are several hunderd dollars
short. This shortage was brought about
by unexpected expenditures that -had to be
Incurred and because of some of . the privi
leges no being paid for. 1 believe that
when this mater is properly brought to the
attention of Maron, all of whom received
greater results than they had anticipated,
that the amount will lx' promptly forth
coming, so that we can pay all bills in full,
and turn over to our -successors an unin
cumbered organization.
In conclusion. I desire to earnestly thank
you for the patriotic, hearty and unselfish
support that each of you at all times gave
me. -and for the great consideration that
you at all 'times evinced towards me. and
1 assure you that I will never forget the
many evidences of your friendship and
esteem. I would recommend that suitable
resolutions of thanks lx 1 given to all those
■who assisted us in bringing about the
greatest event in Maron’s history.
Respectfully submlted.

GARD FROM MR. GUERRY.
Replies to the Statenien as Ito His Position
on High License.
, Maron. Ga., Nov. 5, 1898.
Editor Evening News: In your paper
yesterdta.- under the head of “Them and
New." you publish an editorial in which
you name me personally and unintention
ally misrepresent my past and present
position on the liquor question. I do not
wish to combat the editorial by an argu
ment. but now claim and exercise the right
to briefly state my real ‘position. •! have
never said and do not say now "that any
one who favors high license is a liquor
man or a tool of the liquor element. I do
not understand that anybody entertains
such extreme views. Some of our speakers
have said in substance that no one openly
defends the saloon, but that here as well
<is elsewhere we are me; by our opponents
w.:h an advocacy of high license and other
MUgge tions in order to epnfuse th-' issue
ami disintegrate the prohibition element
ami in this statement I heartily concur.
Your statement that I "advocated high
license four years ago as the best solution
of the liquor problem” is likewise incor
rect. The petition was presented to me
with the statement that the license would
>l>< raised and that my endorsement among
others was iivired, and I signed it without
reluctance or hesitation. In the first ad
dress I have mnde during this campaign
1 referred to this, saying that I hoped it
■would result in improvement and that I
gave the mayor credit for the same sin
cerity that 1 claimed for myself; but that
its only effect had been to lop off some
smaller dealers without reducing the per
cent um of liquor sold, that there was now
concentration and monopoly, and the poi
sonous trie was more vigorous qnd lux
uriant. if not more deadly, and that it
needed the ax instead of the pruning hook.
A ours truly. DuPont Guerry.

The Kind You Have Always Bought
Signature of
WILL DECIDE
CHAMPIONSHIP
Great Game of Football on the
Gridiron in Macon on
Saturday Next.
HOW THE TEAMS LINE UP.
An Evenly Balanced Match With the
Prospect for One of the Best
Games Ever Seen in Georgia.
One week from today and Macon will be
alive with the college boys from the clas
sic city. Georgia and 'North Carolina w’ill
mce-t on the griiliron for the first 'time in
two years. The dcams are old rivals and
the game will ,be a Irattle royal.
It will be the first opportunity that Ma
con has ever had to witness a football
game between the prominent colleges of
the South and it will be a sight that Ma
con has never before witnessed. The two
teams are obi rivals and each will struggle
for supremacy over the other. The game
will decide the championship of the South.
Large crowds of people from all sections
of the state -are coming here to witness
the big game. Reduced rates will be of
fered on the railroads 'and a special train
•will be run from (Athens here and the
students and faculty will come over in a
body to "root” for the team. A large
crowd of (Athenians will also come and
help to cheer the Georgia boys on.
iMacon society will be out to the game.
It is -the first game of football! that has
been played here in some time that the
people have shown any interest in and the
-people are going. Already tallyho parties
have ibeen gotten up and traps are now
being put in readiness. When the Georgia
boys line up for the struggle next Satur
day afternoon they will find that they have
many ardent admirers in the city and
they will find that many yards of red and
black will be waving to the breeze.
The (Mercer boys will all come out be
decked with -the University red and (black.
Os course it is known that there is some
differences between the two collages in
athletics but the (Mercer -boys will not
stand by and see a team from another
state play the Georgia boys without giving
Athens all of the ‘assistance possible.
The action of the 'Mercer boys last Sat
urday at the Vanderbilt game did more to
draw the. two colleges together than any
thing has ever been before. Mercer .was at
the game arid they wore red and black and
they "rooted” for Georgia.
The Georgia team this year is the strong
est that • has represented Athens on the
gridiron in years. It won four games.
Following are the scores: Georgia, 20,
Clemson, 8; Georgia, 15 Atlanta Athletic
Club, 0; Georgia, 15, Techs, 0; Georgia, 4,
Vanderbilt, 0.
The game last Saturday with Vanderbilt
was a big victory for Georgia and has -won
them many admirers throughout the
South.
The team this year averages 163 pounds,
a very light team for Georgia. They have
some very 'big men. however. Following
is something about each man on the -team:
Shannon, the centre, was a sub. last year,
but by hard work made the team this sea
son and is now regarded as one of the best
men that has ever held down the position
of centre for the Georgia boys. He weighs
175 pounds. He is sure in passing the ball
and holds his part of the line like a wall.
Thrasher, the ‘left guard, is a physical
giant. He weighs 230 pounds and is one
of the strongest men in the South today.
It. is impossible to buck through him. He
tackles well for a- big man and is a sure
ground gainer. Lindsay, who holds down
right guard, has been at the University for
i several yeans. He weighs 185 and plays
fine defensive ball. iHe was substitute on
the team last year. Walden, the captain
and left tackle, has played on the team at
tackle for (four years. He is'a splendid
man and allows no dirty work to go on.
Ritchie, who was a sub last year, is play
ing right tackle -this year. He weighs 1-80
pounds and plays the most aggressive ball.
'He is hand to stop and always makes good
gains in his runs. Kid Huff, the quarter,
is the best, general that has ever played
quarter back for Georgia. He weighs only
110 pounds but he is -a crackerjack and
nothing gets by him. Jones, the fullback
is .well remembered by the 'Macon people.
He made a beautiful drop kick in the Co
lumbus game during the Carnival. He
weighs 170 pounds and is given up to be
the best punter in the South. He was
halfback on last year’s Varsity. Mclntosh
is one of the best star players of the team.
He weighs 160 'pounds. He never fails to
gain with the ball and his tackling is re
‘ garde-d as wonderful. McCucheon is an
otoer one of the backs whose long tun In
the game last Saturday saved the day for
Georgia. He is a -splendid man and inter
feres well. Heidt, the left end is one of
the fastest men on the (team and plays
fine defensive ball. dußignon is a gritty
-player and always takes ca*e of his end.
Charles iMdCarthy, the coach, has the
men under fine control. He is assisted in
the coaching by Nally, the captain of the
’96 team.
The game in Atlanta last Saturday did
much to bring tlje game in favor again.
Not a player was hurt and not a lick was
passed throughout the whole game. The
members of the legislature were out to see
the game and all were well pleased with
it. The change of rules this year has
S greatly eliminated the danger. The Geor
gia boys played a hard game and won.
The North Carolina team has won sev
eral games this season. Following is tho
«core: North Carolina, IS, Guilford, 0;
North Carolina. 10, Greensboro 0; North
Carolina. 32. and A. M. 0.
The game will be called at 3 o'clock
Saturday afternoon. The teams will ar
rive in the city Friday night. It will be
the biggest game that has ever been in
Macon and if it is a success it will be
made an annual thing.
The North Carolina team wHI line up as
follows;
Ffifer, right guard: Cromartie, left
guard: Mclver, right tackle; Neville, left
tackle; 4 Rodgers, quarterback; Buxton,
right halfback; Howell, left halfback;
Brown, centre rush; ißryson, left end;
James, right end; Conner, full back.
Photographs of tbe Georgia team are
now on exhibition in the show windows of
Sol Hoge, Harry L. Jones, Clpm Phillips,
Goodwyn’s drug store and E. B. Harris.
Manager Pomeroy, of the Athens team
is nard at work and is doing all in his
power to make the game a success.

CATHOLICS AGAINST THE LIQUOR
TRAFFIC. # (
Editor of The News: In he opinion of !
many persons Including the writer the
noblest and strongest utterances ever
made in this country against -the liquor
traffic have come from Catholic prelates
and the Catholic church—utterances which
we believe you will publish with pleasure.
Cardinal Manning, of England, speak?, g
as a minister of the Gospel, said:
“For forty-five years I have’ been priest
and bishop in London, and now as I ap.-
proach my eightieth year I have learned
some lessons; and the first thing is this:
The chief bar to the workings of the Holy
Spirit of God in the souls of men. and wo
men is intoxicating drink. I know no an
tagonist to that good Spirit more direct,
more subtle, more stealthy, more übiqui
tous than intoxicating drink. Though I
have known men and women destroyed for
manner of reasons, yet I know of no
bause that affects men, woman or cAi’d,
and home with such universality of steady
power as intoxicating drink.”
Cardinal Manning was not only a priest
but a statesman, and it is no wonder that
one who felt as a minister of religios truth
stated in the preceding quotation, should
have followed it up by the following forci
ble and telling utterances delivered at the
great meeting in Exeter Hall .in London:
“Prevention of intemperance is not only
better than a cure, but prevent ion iis <1
duty, and cure is a lame halting attempt
to undo -an evil which we have wilfully
permitted.”
He further said in >a speech at the Liv
erpool temperance congress:
“I say openly and boldly, if th*e present
condition of England cannot be cured
without a (Maine law, a Maine law I would
have. I admit that a Maine law may be
called an extreme remedy; but have I not
already proved that there is an extreme
evil ,and if temporizing methods will not
remedy the evil, let us -have an extreme
remedy. How is it that men who profess
to be -statesmen can waste their time and
the time of the legislature before they take
the subject in hand?”
At another time he said:
‘I Impeach the liquor traffic of high
crimes and misdemeanors. -It is mere
mockery -to ask us to put down drunken
ness by moral and religious means when
the legislature facilitates the multiplica
tion of inducements (to intemperance on
pvery side. You might -as well call upon
me -as the captain of . a sinking ship and
say, ‘Why don’t you pump the water out,
when you are scuttling the ship in every
direction! I will be bound by the help of
God to convert the drunkards-; but until
you have taken off this perpetual supply
of intoxicating drink, we can never culti
vate the fields.”
, In this country Archbishop Ireland, than
whom there is no greater man in America,
in church or in -state, used the following
language in an address delivered to the
Minnesota Total Abstinence Association.
"We labored under the fatal mistake
that we could argue out the question with
the liquor sellers. -We imagined there was
some power in moral suasion, that when
wc would show them the evil of their ways
they would abandon the traffic. We have
seen there is no hope of improving in any
shape or form, the liquor traffic.
“THERE IS NOTHING NOW TO BE
DONE BUT WIFE IT OUT COMPLETE
LY. I have lost too much of my time striv
ing in the past to rep-air. the fearful wrong
of the liquor traffic. I have lost too much
of my time in speaking of total -agstinenco
•in hall and pulpit to men who, while lis
tening, were with me, but who out in the
streets, would be invited by the saloon
keeper to come in and take a drink and
forget their resolutions. -Well, some of us
are growing old and do not intend to be
throwing away our time in arguing with
people who will not be converted, and I
for one I am going to go in with terrible
earnestness in the future in this war
against liquor in all shapes. I mean bus
iness this time.”
These utterances are in line with the
{Official action of the church in the Plenary
Council of (Baltimore, whose decrees were
aproved by Pope Leo XIII.

BADLY BRUISED.
Mr. Tosh Hodges Badly But
Not Seriously Hurt at
the Shops,
(Mr. Tosh Hodges, an expert machinist
of the Central railroad was seriously cut
and bruised in an accident which occurred
at the Central shops Thursday morning.
From information received from En
gineer iMurfe'e, the accident occurred sub
stantially as follows: (Mr. Murfee Started
to carry the shop engine out in the yard
for some purpose when he discovered that
the cap on the boiler check was a little
loose. He called Mr. Hodges’ attention to
it at once. When Mr. iHodges -took his
•wrench and made an effort to tighten the
cap it appears from the sequel, however,
that the discovery was made just a little
too late.
As soon -as he placed the wrench on the
cap, the pressure of the steam blew the
cap off and at the same time hurled the
wrench with considerable force striking
Mr. Hodges on the nose, whirled over and
sitruck him on the top of the head. His
noes was so badly broken that a part of
the bone had to be extracted; a bad gash
was cut in the top of his head also.
•Mr. Hodges was carried to his home on
Huguenin Heights, where he was resting ,
quietly yesterday evening. Mr. Tosh
Hodges numbers his friends by his numer
ous acquaintances, all of whom will be
pained to learn of his accident.
