4 SAM P, JONES IS JN_CHARGE Noted Evangelist Commenced His Campaign Against Liquor Yesterday. HIS OPINION OF POPULISTS Givtn in the Course of His Address Was Hardly Complimentary- Spoke*to Immense Crowd, The prohibition > nt was crowded both ycutcniay afternoon and last night. Rev. Sam Jon<x, of Cartersville, was in chargs of tiie meeting, and ho draws crowds wherever he goes. The tent was filled to its utmost capac ity and all of the seats were taken. Many p<cjd< stood in the allies and the entrance to the tent was also filled. A large num ber of negroes were also present at both meetings. The music both afternoon and night was decid. lly the best that has been heard at th< tent this year. Mr. Charles 1). Till man. of Atlanta, was in charge of the choir. In hln sermon yesterday afternoon Mr. Joins made a strong talk for prohibition. He made no attacks on the city govern ment, but confined himself to the subject. H< rou- 1 up the "card playing suiters,” ;is he termed them, but that waft as far <i- he went from his subject. In the course of his address yesterday evening Mr. Jones made use of a number of his favorite epithets as applied to liquor dealers and half-hearted church members. He said that the church congregations looke d well on dress parade, but that when 1t came to fighting they would not fight. They threw down their arms and ran, but this is to Im- a fight, he said, referring to the prohibition campaign. He did not fear tiny man where his vrinciplee were In volve d, and he proposed to make it a war straight from the shoulder. H< said that he had heard too much of the South, itw men and its women. No man r< vercu the women of the South more than he did and no man more despises -the men. The fact of the matter, ho eaid, was that the -men of this cou retry were too much afraid to declare themselves and they com promised with the devil. Referring to 'politics, Mr. Jones said that in- had been liorn and raised a Democrat and had stayed a (Democrat until he got sober. Some of his audience, he -said, were Democrats and they ought to be sorry for tin mselves. Others were Populists and that was enough; they would get along all right in this world and stood a chance in the next, for the Lord made special provis ions for children and Idiotß. Mr. Joni*. while full of his own peculiar and particular jokes, was not fully up to his own standard yesterday, but be excus «xl 'hlnwelf on account of illness. Last night's service woe of the nature of a religious revival. Mr. Jones said that lie wanted this for he believed that the Lord Jtsiis Christ could do anything even to cleaning up Macon, and if ho could clean up Macon he could do anything else. \t jilght he preached the same doctrine. He will remain here aibout fifteen days and will conduct the services every night. The election is only about twenty days off and each side is hard ar work.

GRAND JURY TOMORROW Judge Ross at Work in City Court Setting Cases Before Judge Speer Today. All the courts are in full blast and the mills of justice are grinding again. The November term in the superior court was opened this morning by Judge W. H. Felton, who took up the civil docket. The civil docket for this term is the lightest that has been before the court for the las-t twenty years, and only unimpor tant ca&fe? are on the boa-d for this week. Owing to the absence t.f the solicitor general it Atlanta in attendance on the supreme where the c.x«e es a. B. Tiv'ior is being heard, the grand jury did not go into session this mo-u’ng, .but will receive- the charge of the julje tomorrow an’ will ccmmence tie work of the No vember term. In the .city court Judge Ross took up a number of criminal eases of an unimpor tant nature, and will be kept busy for some days on this work. Judge Ross will remain on the bench as judge of this court until January 1, 1898, When he will give place to Judge Nottingham. The term of the clerk of the court, Mr. R. H. Smith, does not expire until Sep tember 1, 1899, so that no change may be looked for until that time if at all. -as it is more than probable that Mr. Smith will receive the strong endorsejnent of every member of the bar In this county. He has made a most efficient and courteous clerk and both he and his assistant, Mr. Will Ross are deservedly popular with the members of the 'bar. Judge Emory Speer occupied the bench in the United States court this morning and made arrangements for the docket for the term. i UNITED STATES COURTS ■ $ Cases Assigned and Other Matters Dis posed Os.

We have already published the volun tary certificates of the merchants and leading business men in Upson, Dooly and Houston counties certifying that prohibi tion had not only not injured their busi ness, but benefitted it. >As an evidence that our neighboring county of Jones is interested we quote the following from the Jones County News: “Our people are growing more and more interested in the prohibition contest that is on in Macon. Stacks of Jones county money fall into the tills of Macon's bars, and it would be the interest of this county for prohibition to win. That it will do so is the earnest with of The News.” If whisky and beer are the source of the prosperity of Macon, surely that prosper ity rests upon an unstable and deplorable basis. Could anybody utter a grosser libel on 25,000 intelligent anl virtuous people gathered together in this community than to say by word of mouth or printed line, or CARTOON that it is to the liquor traf fic that we owe our prosperity. Has the liquor traffic made YOU rich? MR. ELLIS’ BILL For a Congressional Convention and What He Says of It. Atlanta Constitution. Representative Roland Ellis, of Bibb, who introduced a bill in the. house last week providing for the holding of a con stitutional convention, will probably make the adoption of the meastfre the chief ef fort of his legislative career in this ses sion. and it could not have a more able champion. He -will have the active aid and co operation, also, of many of the best mem bers in both houses, for with every pass ing year the demand for a new state con stitution grows stronger. The bill was, at the request of Mr. Ellis, sent to the gen eral judiciary committee, but it is prob able that it will later be transferred to the committee on constitutional amendments, of which body Mr. Ellis may in conse>- quence be made chairman. At present he is booked for the special judiciary, but an exchange could easily be arranged. In speaking of the chances of the meas ure its author said last night: “The figures showing the cost of amend ments to the constitution, adopted and proposed since the convention of. 1877 must demonstrate to the economical mind the /wisdom of the passage of such a bill. No less than four measures are now pand ing before the general assembly which may result in the submission of four amendments of the constitution to the people of Georgia. There are certain measures and certain policies which ripen with the years, and while our organic law as contained in the constitution must re main our legislative bed-rock, this people should not stop its ears to this demand of the times —to the cry of progress and civic enlightenment. In my opinion no law of ballot reform adequate to the requirements of the conditions which envelop Georgia can become operative except by radical constitutional amendment. Fraud may be prevented by legislative enactment, but if the suffrage of the ignorant aqd the vicious is to be excluded from the electoral arbi trament of the questions which are fraught with vital interest to a Caucasion com munity the fundamental law of the land as embodied in the constitution must fur nish the power and point the way. This is but one view which should find lodg ment in the Chinking minds —there are many appealing for consideration.” •MACON NEWS MONDAY EVENING NOVEMBER 7 it-Cfb Deadly Cancer Cured at Last! Do Not Give Up in De= spair—There is Hope! For ages it has been thought that Cancer is incurable, and those so unfortunate as to have this dreadful affliction have con sidered themselves beyond hope of recovery. The doctors are ab solutely unable to afford any re lief, and the poor sufferer might well consider himself on the way to an early grave. It is now easy to see why the doctors have failed to cure Cancer. Their theories have been all wrong, and hence their treatment mis directed. They have made the mistake of thinking that by cut ting out the sore or ulcer, known as Cancer, the disease would be gotten rid of, and the patient re stored to health. But the cruel knife accomplishes nothing, f<li the Cancer promptly returns,and is always more virulent than before. It has been demonstrated, beyond doubt, that Cancer is a blood disease, and can not be cured by the surgeon’s knife because the blood can not be cut away. “Several years ago my wife had an ulcer on her tongue, which, though an noying, was not regarded seriously at first. It refused to heal and began to grow, giving her much pain. Tiie doc tors treated it for quite a while but I PROVOSTGUARD On Duty Again—News at Camp Roe. The provost guard is on duty again in the cily today and several disorderly sol diers were arrested this morning. The guard was given a rest yesterday and nothing of a serious nature occurred. The work of examining the men prepara tory to mustering them out was continued this morning and it will occupy a greater part of week. Some few of the men have been turned down on account of physical disability and will be sent to Fort McPherson in Atlanta. They will have to remain there until they get iwell. Very few of the men will continue in the service. All of them seem to have enough of army life and are anxious to be mustered out as soon as possible. It has been stated that over four hundred men of the First Georgia would apply for transfers to the Second, which is to be re tained in the service, but this report seems to be untrue. (Major Kenan said a few days ago that in his opinion very few men would go to the other regiment. (He said that while it would Ibe better for many of the men, they seemed tired and wanted to get out. The soldiers have been keeping comfort able for the past week. The camp has been put in good condition and the tents are very warm at night. Colonel Lawton says that the regiment will be mustered out on the 10th if possible. He is working hard to get things in shape for the muster out,, but other officers are inclined to think that it will be the 16th before the men are given their discharges. The paymaster is expected here this week. He has been notified of the amount that he will have to pay out, and will pay the men off on the day that they are dis charged. The privates will in all prob ability receive between SSO and S6O. The officers will receive their same pay. The privates, sergeants and corporals will be given mileage and ration money and this of course will add to their salaries. DOG SHOW PARADE Attracted Considerable Attention on Streets Today. Prof. Gentry gave a parade of his dog and pony show this morning and it is to be said that the parade was the most unique that has ever been seen in the city. •The parade occupied about ten minutes in passing and was witnessed toy large crowds of people. All the features the show weref 'in the parade. The small ponies pulling the large w-agons was something wonderful and the happy family of monkeys afforded great amusement to the crowds. Prof. Gentry rode in a wagon drawn by two of the smallest of his ponies. The dogs were also out in full force. All kinds of dogs, from the big New Foundlaud to the rat terrier were seen. The matinee this afternoon will no doubt be attended by a large crowd. The show comes to the city highly re commended and it has no equal in the country. REGISTERING SLOWLY. The Voters of the City Are Segistering Slow for City Election.* The voters of the city are registering their names for the coming city election very slowly. At noon today the total reg istration for the week was 323 names. The election is over a month off yet, but the registrars say that they are tired of doipg nothing and want the people to hurry up.
