The prohibition campaign ie barely three weeks old, and yet it seems neces sary to again caution our people against giving way to passion and prejudices. Already friendships of years standing are incoming strained because two men happen not to think alike on this issue. Already personal abuse has been indulged in to a sufficient extent to cause personal en counters, and criminations and recrimina tions are being heard on every hand. The spirit of tolerance is not enough in evi dence, and we very much fear that unless then Is an improvement in this direction the hurtful effects of this contest will be felt for years to come. This is all wrong, .and it i« the patriotic duty of every citizen and well-wisher «f Macon to keep down such feeling. L<’t the leaders on both sides encourage tolerance and liberal-inindednes*. Don't 'be so narrow as to get mad with your .neighbor because he can't think as you do. lb may be a prohibitionist for some good cause and you might respect his reason for being so if you could know it. So, also, he. may be an anti-prohibitionist for ■what see-ms to him the best of reasons, it is, aft< r all, merely a difference of opin ion. The majority of us are all acting from the best motives. 60 don't give way to prejudice and condemn your neighbor because you don't think alike. Remem ber you iKith expect to live here after the first of next December. Have an eye to the future and strive to conduct your ki If that there may be as little aftermath as possible to this campaign. Det's re member that we are all Maronites, with a common interest; that we must suffer or benefit in proportion as our city suffers or Je benetitti-d. We may disagree as to the benefits of prohibition or the license sys tem. Hut none of us can differ as to the fact that our city will suffer greatly if personal biterm ss are engendered by this contest, no matter which .way the election goes. Elberton Star: In lion. A. O. Bacon Georgia has a .senator any state might well envy. His position is in the front which no longer is a personal but a state pride. Senatorial courtesy is the only ob stacle to his leadership, though he is recognized as an equal of any of the older strong men. Georgia can do no better than keep him at his |Mxst, and in a few years lie will not only lead the South, but had the senate. The Boycott. We are glad that our prohibition friends have been bo prompt to condemn the boy cott plan of campaign; for this is, in reality, usually one of the very worst fea tures of a prohibition contest. The boy cott is a weapon that makes no friends for ithe one who uses it, and that accomplishes jiothing in the end. It is, moreover, a two-edged sword, and is a very dangerous (thing to handle. I here may he a few extremists on either side- who cannot be retrained from using it, but the men who will do the real fight ing in this contest will not be caught using that sort of weapon. The best coun tsel on both sides discountenances its use. ft is an admission of intolerance that does not speak well for any intelligent man, and serves to discredit the opinions and motives of whoever advocates it. It is proof positive of narrow-mindedness and prima facie evidence of a vindictive spirit. Because a merchant cannot think as you do on this issue, don’t be mean enough to try io tear down his business; hq is as much entitled to his opinion as you are. And he would be a coward should he fail to express that opinion and to vote as he feels. I’or our.part, we confess to some amuse ment at the funny threats that have been made by a few fools on both sides against The News—all in the spirit of boycott. One narrow minded old fellow who says a member of his family will be thrown out of employment If The News is successful in having high-license adopted as the best method of regulating the liquor traffic in -Mac-on, writes that he will “stop his pa per unless we let up. Another subscriber, and this one a preacher, threatens to do the same because our advocacy of high license "hurts prohibition.” Now. look on this pair and you get a pretty fair idea of the absolute assininity of the boycott theory of carrying elections. What, for instance, would either or both of them accomplish by carrying out their threat? If we were so low-down that we could be bought for ten cents a week (now is the time to subscribe) our opinion -wouldn't be worth anything one way or the other, so that neither of these people would have cause for complaint. We don't allude to the absurdity and meanness of the boy cott for our sake, because the loss of a subscriber is something like pulling your linger out of a tub of water, but we do mention for the sake of our merchants, Bome of whom are to be found on both sides of this issue—and who .would suffer considerably from the use of the boycott. They are simply going to vote their con victions as we are expressing ours, and they have a right to do so. It is wrong for the partisans on either side to attempt to make them suffer for acting conscien tiously. in reality none of us would respect the man who acted or voted from any other motive. Our Republican neighbor's interest In today’s election is evidenced in the follow ing: By this time tomorrow the agony will be over and we will all be able to know just who is to save the country for the next two ygars.” Cotton Versus Wheat. The agricultural editor of the Telegraph is mistaken. There is not as much money in wheat at sixty-five cents a bushel as there is in cotton at four and a half cents a pound. Taken on his own basis of reck oning where he says that twenty-five buehels of wheat to the acre have been raised in Georgia It is fair to say that two ■■ bales of cot-ton to the acre have been raised in Bibb county This then gives him for his wheat a maximum possible of $16.75 an acre and for cotton 145 an acre. We believe that it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the advocates of wheat raising in Georgia that it costs more to raise twenty bushels of wheat to the acre in Georgia than it does to raise a bale of cotton to the acre. The farmer of Georgia might do well to plant some wheat, but as a matter of fact he can plant cotton at four and a half cents and buy wheat with the receipts and still be better off than he would be if he raised the wheat on the same land. The agricultural editors of Georgia will per haps understand how and why this is when they know more about farming. We have no doubt that under the proper care and conditions a bale of cotton might be raised in Manitoba that would take the prize at the Paris exposition fit 1900, but that is no reason why the wheat farmers of Manitoba should plant cotton as a staple crop or even bother with it at all when they can raise wheat and buy their cotton goods with the money. If the farmers of Georgia are going to reform they will make a poor beginning on wheat. When South Georgia farmers are raising enough hay, enough hogs, enough beef and mutton, enough sweet potatoes, ■ enough butter and milk and enough manure to supply the home and farm demand it will be time enough to talk of the luxury of wheat. We have no doubt that some very excel lent w-heat can be raised in South Georgia, but the average upland farmer will pay eighty cents a bushel for every bushel of wheat that he raises and he will be lucky if he gets off at a loss of fifteen cents on every bushel. Those gentlemen who have made the statement that there are thirty-two blind tigers in Bibb county should, as good citi zens, be willing to give the grand Jury in formation that will bring these violators of law to punishment. The future of Georgia depends upon her agricultue. 'More hay, more hogs and more corn, more cattle, more chickens, more eggs, more butter are what the farmer wants. Cotton at five cents is a good staple crop provided the farmer raises enough to feed his hands, hits family, his stock and his land. The South Georgia farmer can afford to buy a few barrels of flour .when he makes everything else at home to which his soil is adapted. Let’s talk about something else than wheat as a farmers crop in South Georgia. The wheat raisers are laughing at us. State of Ohio, City of Toledo, Lucas County. Frank J.

We h ear a great \ "•iSrSssL * these days of \ OUT puritan fore- ' J?

They drowned witches to be sure, but that was no part of ttneir puritanism. It is to the puritan women w-e owe so much for that spirit in our people which gives them the fortitude to endure hardship and stake life and fortune for their convictions. The American women of to-day have the spirit of their puritan mothers, but their constitutions are not rugged or able to en dure half the hardships of these New Eng land ancestors. Very r often they are run down with weaknesses and irregularities peculiar to their sex, and the constant drain upon their vitality makes them chronic in valids. Many women hesitate to go to their familj r physician, because they dread the local examinations so generally insisted upon by practitioners. Such women should write Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief consulting physician of the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. ¥., giving a full description of their symptoms, history, etc., so that he can give them the best possible medical advice. If Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip tion seems to suit the case the Doctor will say so. If not, then he will give medical advice which will put such women on the rapid road to recovery and health.
