4 TURBULEMT NEC® ARRESTEDJ PROVOSTS Guard Had a Busy Time this Morning on the Arrival of the! Regiment—At first the Affair Looked as if it Might Be Serious, TENTH IMMUNES I ON THJ GROUND Regiment Arrived Early this Morning and is at the Huff Place. BIG RUSH IS COMING And All the Soldiers Will Be Here a Week from Now Bates Estab lishes His Headquarters. The Tenth Irnmunes have already begun to raise trouble in the city. This morn ing a party of fifteen negroes got of ths train at the junction and proceeded to in sjH.'Ct the city. It did not take them long to imbibe to fully of whisky and they then proceeded to raise trouble. They went to Reeves’ store •In South Macon and threatened to clear out the place. The peopl. In that neighborhood became alarmed and the provost guard was noti fied of the disturbance and thirty men un der command of Lh'iitenant Bostow were di-patched to the scene. On their arrival they found the negroes raising a terrible racket, and the guard Immediately placed them under arrest. The negroes had their side arms, consist ing of a belt and a huge Krag-Jorgesen bayonet, which in the hands of a mean negro would prove a terrible weapon. They were flourishing their bayonets around and threatening to kill people when the (guard came up. The disorderly men were placed under arrest and brought back to the city and are now lock, d up at the headquarters of the provost guard. They w'll be kept third until they can be sent back to the jeginu nt. Another squad of the Tenth Irnmunes raised a di turbance at Drew & Parker’# wore in Vine villa this morning. The pro vost guard was sent lor and about fifteen of them 'were arrested. It seems that one of them had some words with another negro at the store and all of the soldiers wanted to Join in the row. The appearance of the provost guard quieted them down however, and they were all brought into the city. About fifty of the negroes have been ■arrested this morning and the guard house is full. Th, people of the city arc becoming alarmed at the disturbance this morning. The officers say, however, that, the men will be kept in order and that they will give tile people no trouble. •Macon is beginning to fill up with sol diers. Never since the last coming of General Wilson have so many soldiers been in the city. The Tenth Irnmunes arrived last night and were carried out to the laboratory •this morning where the equipments were unloaded. This is the first of the colored regiments to arrive. By next week this time Macon will have six regiments camped about the city and the streets will be alive with blue coats and brass buttons. General Wilson has not yet moved his headquarters from the Hotel banter and It may be several days yet before the re moval occurs. General Bois has established temporary headquarters in the Exchange Bank build ing and he will probably remain there un til 'the arrival of all of the regiments. He will then establish his headquarters be tween the two brigades. A large line of army wagons were in the city this morning from the camp at Oc nnilgev park hauling supplies to the camp. Several old citizens seeing the wagons said that they reminded them of the time when General Wilson was here before. The wagons were covered with canvass and had the "U. S.” on each side. Very few of the negro soldiers have been seen in the city today as they have been very busy arranging their camp. To day has been a rather bad day on the sol diers as they have to work all during the day In the rain. The negro troops that came in early this morning are a fine looking body of men. All of them are well built and look as if they could stand any thing. The provost guard, which is now detail ed from the regiment of Engineers has made very few arrests since being on duty. A company of eighty-nine men are kept on duty all of the time and so far the best of order has prevailed. The adjutant general who has his office In the Exchange Bank building, has been ketpt very busy for the past few days. There are numerous details that have to be attended to and all of the officers are kept busy and will be kept so until the regiments are all in eamp. 1 ho ( herekee 1 lub will tender a german to the army offk-ens in the city on Friday evening at their club house and the occa sion promises to be very swell. General Bates says that all of his divis ion will ,be in camp by next Wednesday. He s:us that he does not know how long the troops will remain here as he has re ceived no orders from the war department in regard to the -troops being sent into Cuba. Twenty-four hundred soldiers are sta tioned hi Macon for the winter and when the other regiments arrive, 6,500 will be here. 1 he division hospital will be completed by Saturday night. A large force of men are kept at work there day and night. When completed the hospital will be one of the best equipped buildings in the country Major Hegg. on General McKee's staff is in charge and he is making rapid progress with his work. He says that the hospital fw ill easily accommodate 400 men. FIRST GEORGIA Will Certainly Muster Out by Tomorrow Night. Everything is in a state of expectancy at Camp Roe and the members of the First Georgia are making ready to go to their homes. The regiment will be mustered out on Friday and by Saturday night every one will be at his home. The order from the war department rel ative to mustering out troops requires ■that'five rolls be prepared, each roil con taining the names of every man in the regiment. The rolls are to be in the form of a complete descriptive list, giving the history and character of every man who has ever been with the regiment, whether iu* died in hospital, was discharged from • I service or is still in active service. Os the I five rolls prepared two of them are re- I tained by t£e mustering officers as a re cord of their work, one is turned over to I the officers of the regiment and is finally i handed by them to the adjutant general of the state and is kept as a matter of refer- i ence and record in the archives of the I capital. The last two rolls are taken by the I paymasters who pays off the regiment be j fore it is mustered out. One of the holls I kept by the paymasters is sent to the pay j master at Washington and the other is kept as a receipt for the money they have paid the regiment. One of the peculiar customs of the army and one that has saved the government trouble in times past is that of discharg ing every man from service who has ever been with the regiment. When the com mand is assembled to be mustered out the rolls contain the names of all troops Who have been with the regiment, whether they have died in hospital, on the field of battle or have left the regiment. The missing have a right to a discharge certificate as much so as the men in ac tive service, and certificates of this kind are always written out for the absent. This is done in order to protect the gov ernment in after years in case it is found that the soldier who is certified to be dead is found to be alive. He can in that case claim all the salary coming to him to the time of his reappearance. The precau tion is taken also to prevent fraud from being perpetrated on the government. SECOND OHIO HERE. I f Came in Today at One O’clock Over the Southern. The Second Ohio regiment arrived in the city this afternoon at 1 o’clock from Knoxville, Tenn. The regiment came in six sections over the Southern. The regiment is in com mand of Colonel Hunt, who will be in command of the First 'brigade, he being the ranking colonel. There are about 1,200 men in the regi ment. The trains are now at Ocmulgee park unloading. The camp of the Second Ohio will be alongside that of the Engi neers. The men are having just such a time as the Engineers had on their ar rival. Everything will be gotten in shape by 'tomorrow, however. Drills will be com menced Saturday. CHRISTI ANS. Proceedings at the State Con vention Sessions Today. The session of the Christian church con vention last night was very interesting and ■many people, besides the delegates, were present. Several interesting papers were read. The session was short and the meeting adjourned after a few minutes session. The morning session was conducted by the Woman’s Board of Christian Missions. Mrs. Albert Howell, the president, deliv ered an address which was very interest ing. The reports from the various socie ties throughout the state were received and they showed that all of the auxiliaries were hard at work and that much good was being accomplished in -all sections.

Macon would keep a-humming the balance of her days. j It was he who started paving, the sewers he put down. I And if they wouldn't bother him he'd pave all the streets in town. But here comets pro-hi-bi-tion. with great big hue and cry. And says the town is ruined because she isn't dry. I They tried it in Atlanta (it weren’t for long, you bet)'. For the antis wouldn’t stand it and turned it back to wet. And for awhile Atlanta was going down the hill, And whiskey was a-running from every mountain still And. to the world, Atlanta was known as high and dry. But mountain stills and Griffin sold her liquor on the sly. And the same will be in Macon if the prohis gain their end. For dealers in Atlanta will plenty liquor send. The times are hard already and business awful slow. But what’ll it be later when the saloons’ll have to go? The dealers in Atlanta will struggle for our trade. And poor old sluggish Macon will res* t j while in shade. Then look well at your ticket, put in your vote with care, And bear in mind that Daisy Price is th< man for our mayor. —A Lady Who Wishes to See Macon Thrive. _ Notes Taken On the Run.- Mrs. W. C. Stevens and Mrs. Maurv Stapler are spending a few days in At lanta. J. M. Brown, now a member of Company | “L” of the Third Engineer corps, was at I one time a valued employe of The Evening ' News and is shaking hands with his old I friends on the paper.

It is probable 'that a grand review of the troops of the First division of the First army corps will take place during the stay of the troops here. The annual meeting of the Macon Car nival Association will be held nexit week for the purpose of electing officers for the coming year. A large crowd of people (will go from here to Jacksonville during the Carnival week. The fact that the Macon football team is going down will draw a large crowd. The Third regiment of Engineers havo a football team that would like to give the Macon boys a practice game before they go to Jacksonville. Music Lessens—Piano and violin In struction at reasonable prices.

Ist bv the Local Op tion Election is SHALI MACON MSB Or Must the Central City of Georgia Be Relegated to the Rear as a Common Cross Road Village. Disregarding the suspicion that this en tire prohibition agitation is political, anc that the question of morals is merely £ side issue with many of the leaders, there is one thing that strikes the average voter with considerable force. It is noticed that wnenever Mayor Col lier or Captain English, or any other gen tleman who has had experience witm pro hibition and Its inevitable results, present their views for publication, they are im mediteiy, jumped ou by tae proaibinor leaders and branded as “interlopers and meddlers.’’ And yet Uiose same ieadert these holier-than-thou and better-man you people send out ot town and hire such men as Sam Jones, the colored Bisaot- Turner, Doctor Lee and others of the same kidney to advocate and boost tneir cause. Are taey not ’’interlopers and meddlers '” just as much ana mure so than Captain itriglish or Mayor Collier .' And wuai e tile language used by mem? In an mat Has been punh&aed from iviayor Collier o. Captain Engnsii mere is not a word mat Would cause uiiense or bring a bius-n. can the same oe said oi me pruui. imeriupci s .' Witness tnese oamce expressions trom tin. sacred puiplt: “1 Had ramer stuck in me lowest uawdy House in Macuu anu rur msh VHe supplies io run it man to u»,u stock in a brewery,” and “il I was iuh mng a soap iaetory in nell and a corpse ox one of these soldiers was noating by I'd refuse to take it no matter now mucD 1 needed grease, ' and “you old sow mat drinks malt tonic,” and "you little pig eon-toed, poodle-headed devil, you tails about none of your business; there is not enough of you co make stink; if thans. God I don’t live in Macon,” and “this town is full of cussers; what do you want to cuss for, you old dirty mourned dog, you; your language would pukt? a dug; 1 mean it would pdke you,” and various similar ex pressions, many Os which, according to tae papers, “cannot be printed in tnese col umns.” This is a sample of the language used by the prohi interloper in the pulpit—in t’ne pulpit, mind you, and some ot it in the presence of young boys and girrs. And yet Mayor Collier and Captain English, because in polite language merely gave a statement of facts as to the results oi prohibition, are branded as “interlopers and meddlers.” Does it not strike the average voter that the prohi. leader in Macon must have little hope of his cause when he must hire such interlopers and meddlers to use such choice language in the pulpit, and from the pulpit blackguard those of our citizens as are so base and so low and so ignorant as to disagree with him as to what is best for Macon? The average voter cannot pause long in determining who is 'the “interloper and meddler” —the gentleman who simply pre sents an array of plain facts in language that cannot bring a blush, or the hired professional expounder who slanders our people in the language of the slums. Now let the average voter settle in his own mind whether the city in which . makes his living, in which he has his home, will thrive best under prohibition with suc-h apostles as Sam Jones, Bisnop Turner, Doctor Lee, and our home product of the same stripe. If the average voter is a business man, he must take a business view <of the sit uation. He must ask himself who is the most interested in this question, the inter loper and meddler or the business man and 'the man whose income is derived from the brick and mortar stores and resi dences he owns? What affects the busi ness man affects the landlord, for their interests are identical, and whatever af fects either affects, injures and hurts the city of Macon, and what affects the city affects the suburbs and country at large, because the suburbs and country are more or less dependent on the city, and what ever affects all these must necessarily af fect every working man of every class and affect every interest and every branch of business on down the line until it even reaches the church platter, and the onlv increase in the church black list, which will be so crowded with names of poor delinquents that it can serve as a first class directory. A reduction of business must follow prohibition, and this reJuctiJn goes through every business, no matter how .small, and did it ever occur to you '.hat t is business that makes the town? Take away the business from a town of any pretensions and see what will become of it. That being so, the -whole question in a nutshell: IS PROHIBITION BUSINESS? The plain, unvarnished, unbiased, un prejudiced, unpolitical, unfanatical facts prove that PROHIBITION IS NOT BUSINESS, and neither does it prohibit, but on the other hand, when you substitute PROHIBITION for BUSINESS in a town you kill it, and that’s the plain English of it, no matter how much Sam Jones, Bishop Turner and Doctor Lee may say you don’t. Business men, real estate owners, work ing men, all who depend in any manner on the trade and business of Macon tor your bread and meat and living, you are called upon to decide by your ballot Whether your business will suffer, your property depreciate, or if you must pull up stakes and hunt work elsewhere. . The mayor and council, doing what they con ceived to be their duty to keep down strife between our citizens, and what they honestly believed to be for the best in terests of the city of Macon, tried to avert this state of affairs for you by requesting the leaders of the movement to call off the dogs of war and to declare peace but the leaders wanted war and war they must have The peace proposition was refused. It now remains for the business man, the property owner, the working man and every man who loves Macon and wants to stay' here and see her prosper, to march to the polls on the Ist of December and snow under the attempt to make a back number of Macon, to vote against prohi bition, so that the Central City of Georgia may continue to prosper and keep her place among the leading cities. And let those who want to see the grass spring up between the bricks of our paved streets, who want to see the “to rent” card on hundreds of stores and houses, and who want a Chanse of residence, vote with the agitators and interlopers. Sam Jones, in his choice Christian language, say’s there is only a thin crust between Macon and hell, and as there are some who believe strongly in -what Sam says, they should avail themselves of the twenty odd trains leaving Macon daily and hunt for a town of their liking. There are a few. but only a few. who are conservative in their ad vocacy and who are believed to be con scientious in their opinions as to prohi bition, but if the searchlight of truth was thrown upon the majority of these leaders there would be found many without whom Macon would be much better off. The leadipsr business men and property owners of Macon claim that Macon will suffer and be made desolate under prohi bition. and they say so in plain but choice language. Sam Jones. Bishop Turner, and Doctor Lee and others say. in language unfit for publication, that it will not. Take your choice. BANK CLOSED. By Associated Press.

PROHIBITION , BAND WAGON i “Denials and Facts” as Pub lished by the Anti’s Were Minus the Facts, PUT THEIR FOOT 111 IT, a Again the Prohi’s Show that the In tended Vesuvius Bon- b Was Simply a Fizzle. A-n article appeared In the Telegraph >1 of this morning under the significant pa a renthesis “Communicated,” with soartling headlines. It was meant to be a regular :e Vesuvius bomb in the Prohibition camp Though an employe of the Telegraph stated that he wrote it, we suppose it was fathered and paid for by the antis. The article in question was headed “De- - nials and Facts.” It was in reply to a de _ nial published in yesterday’s Telegraph by u the Prohibitionists of a statement that they were paying the taxes of all -who s would promise to vote for prohibition. The statement was made in the Atlanta Jour nal of the 14th that “it is openly said by both sides that everybody will begiven an p opportunity to vote, as the taxes are being e paid wherever this stands in the way.” This was officially so far as it applied to the Prihobitionists. The ’Antis are sensi u tive on this point. They could not deny s the charge and so were peculiarly anxious .1 to disprove the square denial of the Prohi r bitionists. Hence in this article of today l they make a great parade of a band-wagon ll ; load of men brought in by Mr. Lee and ■ others to register. They grow hilarious over this evidence that the Prohibitionists did on “the last day” what they have IJL been doing openly and shamelessly every - day to the disgrace of decent citizenship, e But they were in too great haste. They y should have investigated their “facts” be d fore venturing into print. Read the follow ■ Ling statement: - Macon, Ga.. Nov. 16, 1898.—As supcrin t tendent of the Southern Phosphate Works, j I employe sixty men. Fifty-five of these s are colored men. Day before yesterday s Rev. J. W. Lee visited the works in the r course of his canvass cf the city, and dur -1 ing his visit twenty-eight of the men ex pressed their intention to vote for Prohibi- e tion. Some of them had paid their taxes, others said they had not. I offered to loan i the money to any of those who wanted to a pay their tax and register, providing they ii would pay it back, but stated at the time si that I would pay no man’s tax for the isake of his vote, as it is contrary to my a convictions. 1 On yesterday one of my white employes. Mr. Dye, who wanted to register himself, (. 'went with the men -and paid their taxes, e turned each man’s receipt over to him..’ ti and reported the accounts to me to be set li tied by them. The wagon in which they a went was furnished -by Mr. Lee in order 3 that the men might be kept from work as T tshort a time as possible. Yours respectfully, Q William Wellington Franks, j That is the whole gist of the bomb that - -was going to blow the prohibition camp ■ e into splinters. Mr. Franks is an honorable 1 business man who does 'business on the r square. Take notice, he loaned money to those of his hands who wanted- it and s would pay -it back, but refused to pay 3 taxes as a -consideration for votes. Put x that over against the course openly pur- 3 sued by the henchmen of the whisky traf t fie. He gave each man his tax receipt. Put that -against the stacks of tax receipts > (pocketed by the whisky men and held as a threat over their poor deluded victims. He allowed his men to choose how they j they wanted to pay their own taxes and I register. Put that over against the meth . ods being used by the Antis. Further more, only two men out of that band wagon load had to have their taxes paid, and both of those will make an affidavit - that they -borrowed the money of their own Will.
