The News feels that its employes are as much" entitled as anyone • le- to this annual holiday, and they will be illowed to observe this day of national thanksgiving in common with the balance of our citizens. ' The News at the Camps. The attention of.the riieri-ltants and ad vert is< is of Macon is .lireeied to the large I in ulaiion of The NcWs among the troops now encamped here. The News' circulation in the various ranipe is three times as large as that ol uny other Macon paper. It is twice as large as tlrat of any other two papers. A, 1 It . larger than that of all other pa pers put together. Tins Is our gaurantee and we invite in vestigation upon the part of advertisers, it you want your advertisements read by ifie t uldicrs, they must be in The News in order to reach any considerable number of them. The trade of these soldiers Is worth a great deal to the merchants of Macon, and it is to be secured mainly through adver tining. Being strangers m the city, these toddieia do not know where to buy until told. Naturally they are guided almost entirely by adverti-si tuents in the paper'. M ,'ien Ilnur attention is thus called to an article they waul, if tho price is right, they go •traightway and buy al the first opportunity. The Newts lakes your bargain news di rect to bundride ol these soldiers, and your i;d ver tilth men t will fall under the eyes of thousands of their numiber during the evening. Do you want this trade? If eo, you .should at once make the proper effort to get it. The News offers you three times as many soldier readers as any other paper. of course Hie Spanish commissioners will give in al last, inti they will do it vvirh tne eaine old bluff that they have put up .since the war began and long before the war was thought of. The only satisfaction we get in the Philippines is taking it away from Spain. The Victors in Porto Rico. A good deal was said and written before Ihe war about the conduct of Spanish sol diers in 'Cuba and elsewhere. A great deal of what was published was untrue, but ■these sensational -lories did much to bring about interference on the part of this <>ollll try. Now. however, thaf we are in indisputed possession of at least one of Spain’s col onies, Porto Hico, let's see how our own troops are conducting themselves. We have already had occasion to feed We have already had occasion to'feel ashamed of certain of our troops in Cuba, but very little has been heard from Por to Rico, where it is supposed we have a well-disciplined army of occupation. We give below, however, a few extracts from Porto Rican newspaper, which have been brought to our attention. They are us fol lows: From La Bomba, Ponce—We observe with sorrow tha< these troops are not a disciplined army. They are a heterogen eous mass of base and shameless people, without the elementary ideas of morals ami god manners. Their vandal acts show this to be true. This drunken multitude daily buffet and maltreat our suffering townspeople. They rob servants on their way to and from the marllet. They enter restaurants, and after eating and drink ing until intoxicated beat the servants tuid break the crockery. They refuse to pay cabmen and rob peddlers wherever they find them. They enter private houses and steal what they can lay their hands on. Women cannot appear in public for fear of insult from these North American sa vages. Complaining at headquarters is like barking a-t the moon. If this is our destiny let us sink this fair land in the depths of the sea. From Correa de Puerto Rico. Ponce—“lf the authorities t civil or military, on this island do not put a definite stop to these acts which are breeding hatred between us and the Americans we suggest that acom xnieton Im sent to Washington to ener getically «<t our complaints before the .government and the American people. No matter how quietly and innocently one go< s on his way or enters into a public place he is liable to be insulted by n ruf fian. All of us have not the patience of Job nor the meekness of the Man of Cal vary to hear with cold indifference re flections upon our honor without retaliat ing.” Front La Neuva Era, Ponce—"We suf fered much under the Spaniards, but if certain of our liberator-' continue the com mission of greater offenses tjtan those of our former masters we shall lose all our illusions of liberty and justice, and the <x>tiseqnences will be truly lamentable, be cause we will not submit quietly to a new tyranny.” From La Estrella Solitario. Pon^ — "Never before has there occurred in Ponce what is happening today. There is no safety. Our ladies are at all times ex posed to the insults of drunken soldiers.” Such statements as the above are suf ficient to put us to the blush for having ever criticise,! the Spaniards. What will the world say of the victors in Porto Rico? But there is another and every way stronger point to the above extracts. .While are even now talking about sending 'missionaries to convert the “in ferior races" in our new possesions our soldiers are offering them what they will naturally consider an example of our boasted civilization. We offer our sincere (sympathies to these poor "heathens.” IP’ Alas, poor Corbett. We knew him well. But there were others who did not know him so well and but for the referee would have dropped their whole pile on the pom padoured apology for a fighter. Jim can now retire and teach scientific and gentle sparring to the young men who want to learn how to spar without being hit hard. Surgeon General Sternberg's Report. The inquiry in the conduct of the recent | war has progressed to a considerable ex tent and it has been pretty clearly de- I vetoped that there was considerable mis- | management in supplying medicines, and incompetency or lack of facilities in treat- i ing the wounded. This, of course, calls in ■ ■question the efficiency of Surgeon-General ; Sternberg's department, and that official i is about to turn on his critics. In fact,*if reports be true, he is to is- j sue a very interesting document showing exactly who is to blame for the things that have been brought to light. Sur geon General Sternberg does not propose to be made the scapegoat for others, and it is said his official report will bring the heads of various other bureaus to ac count. This Is said to apply especially td tho quartermaster's department on ac count of its lack of organization, and its incompetent officials, who held their posi tions through favoritism and not through merit. He will show that large quantities of medicine* were sent to Cuba which never reached there, remaining unpax-ked in holds of transports, owing to the ab sence of system in the quartermaster's de partment and its failure to appreciate the necessity for quick work. It is further stated that the report will also ridicule some remarks concerning the volunteer medical officers and contract surgeons, to whose unfamiliarity with the duties expected of them was productive of much of the suffering and neglect among the sick and wounded soldiers. He will also show, so his friends assert, that the sanitary rules and regulations laid down by the war department were not enforced by the volunteer officers, and many of them ridiculed the warnings they received and the result was unclean camps and the development of disease among the troops. The main spring of a big insurance company of New York with a national reputation, says an exchange, is a very bright woman, who took a position in the office eight years ago at a salary of SIOO a month. Not a man in the office receives les than S2OO a month and some 50 to 100 per cent, more, and while the compatly re cognizes the woman as the main spring whose quick intuition keeps the vast ma chinery in motion she is*still receiving the same salary, because she is a yoman— that's all. If she were a man her pay would be at least three times as much, but she wears dresses and must be satisfied with SIOO. Man’s inhumanity to woman. General Traffic Manager McNicholl of the Canadian Pacific railway says 50,000 people have gone to the Klondike gold fields this season and in his opinion 20,000 of them will return penniless and without ever seeing the gold fields. He says that at least $30,000,000 has been spent by prospectors in purchasing outfits and in reaching the country and in living there, and taking everything into consid eration the account about balances—that is, there has been about as much spent in reaching and working the gold fields as there has been taken out in gold dust. Don’t think that people are coming to you to buy just because you have been in busines for the past twenty years or more. One old tie does not make a railroad. Don't advertise an article in June that is salable only in December, and then swear that advertising don’t pay.—Niles (Mich.) Star. The Chicago board of trade has filed with the commisioner of internal revenue a brief asking him to review his decision teqtiring stamps or. memoranda of stock and grain sales. Now that the fighting is over many lines of business are trying to have the stamp taxes removed. If the legislators would just come to Macon and see the trouble that is being Stirred up over one little prohibition cam paign, they would hardly feel encouraged to subject the whole state to a similar ex perience. The gobblers’ troubles are over. Tomor row it will be the turn of the other gob blers to have his troubles. . To think that Gentleman Jim should go down before Dog Sharkey. Will wonders never cease. Once more Monticello has asserted her self and sustained its reputation. The legislature is still talking. TOBACCO TRUST. Organization of the Company Having Con trol of the Business. By Associated Press. New York, iNov. 23. —It was authorita- tively announced today that negotiations Which (have been pending since the forma tion of the Union Tobacco Company of America have been concluded, 'by which a controlling interest in the company has been sold to Thomas S. F. Ryan, P. A. B. Widener. Thomas 'Dolan and W. L. Lukins. It was not disclosed who the other par ties in the interest with them are, but it will be remembered that when th? compa ny was formed, although their names did not appear among tae incorporators, it was said that some of the most prominent to bacco men in the United States were in terested in the new company.

A Gnme That Failed. At Fort Sheridan a cavalry regiment was being examined physically before be ing mustered out, those who were found disabled in any way being recommended for a pension. At a sifting of the exam ining board a trooper presented himself who claimed to have become totally deaf. If he could prove this, it would entitle him to a neat stipend for the rest of his days. The officers asked him various ques tions about his deafness, but he apparent ly failed to hear any of them. They tried to surprise him into making some remark which would show that he was shamming, but they could do nothing of the kind. Finally one of the officers held a watch to the man’s ear, while another stepped to the end of the room. “Now, then,” said the officer at a dis tance, speaking in an ordinary tone of voice, “can you hear that, sir?” “No, sir,” was the prompt reply. The applicant was not recommended for a pension.—Chicago Journal. CASTOR I A, For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the /"Tv //tf/7 • st ~ Signature of Notice.
