A Word to Our Merchants.
Axk any soldier what paper is the most
jm,pular in camp, and be will tell you The
News." Go into the camps any afternoon
and you will see The News being read in
•■wry company street. Compare The
News' solditr lists with the lists of any
other paper, and you will find four or five
tlnus a:- many nanus as you will find on
the others.
Add all the other lists together, includ
ing the Atlanta Constitution,. Atlanta
Journal and Macon Telegraph, cnl you
will learn that The News has a great
many more soldier subscribers tbati all of
them. This is The News' guarantee to
a.lvertiK rs, and along with it should be
born<' in mind the fact that ires soldier
trade is worth thousands of dollars a
wn k to Macon's merchants. Also keep in
mind the fact that these soldiers are
strangers hue, don't know one store from
another, and only know to trade where
they air told, when they see something
offered that .-.nits them. Then you will
conn to the inevitable- conclusion that the
only way to reach them is through the
columns of Th© News, and that during
their stay in Macon advertising in The
New* ha» a greatly increased value —
though . till sold at the same reasonable
rate.
I o Vote or Not to Vote.
No how to vote, but whether to vote at
ail, is the question tuat seems paramount
with some of our citizens iu the present
prohibition contest, til course every man
rias the right- io think and act lor lum
s. If, but, lor the lile.ul us, we cannol_jp.e
how there run be any halfway ground in
thia is.-,ue. To us it seems that the man.
who conscientiously believes prohibition
will prove a boon tor this community,
owes it to himself and to his neighbors
io vote that way. Whatever may be his
reasons lor not doing so, he fails to do
his duty when he fails to vote at all.
And Hie same is <qually true of the an
ti-prohibitlouist who, turough lack of
moral courage or otherwise, tails to vote
as in thinks on December 1. if he con
scientiously believes that prohibition is
Hie wrong solution of the liquor problem,
that It will injure his town ami prove
u useless and harmful experiment, he
owes it to himself and to his town to vote
against a change.
Whatever may be your convictions, vote
them. Whichever side you are on don’t
give half a vote to the enemy by remain
ing awaj from the polls.
The issue before us is too important
form either standpoint to be ignored iu
this way. It affects you and your tieigh-
Ixir ami your city. Go do your duty as a
citizen. Walk up to the polls next Thurs
day ami vote as you think, or else admit
one of two things either that, you are in
capable of deciding the question for your
self, or else lacking in moral courage.
Captious Criticism. •
Maj. Somebody is quoted in the Savan
nah Journal as severely criteislng the
provost marshal at Macon,and incidentally
the other offici rs connected with the First
division now m camp here, for their man
agement of* the recent riotous conduct on
the part of the Sixth Virginia regiment at
Macon.
We were quite astounded, as no doubt
everyone else was. to see such a criticism
coming from a man bearing the rank of
major and himself a provost marshal. If
his judgment is as bad as his taste in
criticising a thing about which he knows
absolutely nothing, it is quite likely that
his own oftleial conduct is sometimes open
to criticism.
We do not presume for a moment that
the officers in command of the troops at
Macn need any defense at ous hands, but
we feel that we voice public sentiment in
rebuking this captious Savannah critic,
and. at the same time, in commending
them for their management of the affair
in question. To those on the scene and
who ought to be more familiar with the
situation than one more than two hundred
miles away, the alleged ‘‘uprising" seem
ed to be promptly and perfectly handled
by the officers in charge. No one could
have forseen such fool hardiness as the
Virginia negroes were guilty of,but no one
could have quelled the disturbance more
promptly and vigorously than was done.
Indeed, the management of the affair was
altogether so satisfactory as to call forth
universal praise from tne entire commun
ity. in which there were many who feared
less orderliness than has been maintained
.rem the outset. *We do not see how it is
(possible for <so large a body of men to be
under more perfect control, or for officers
to be-more zealous in discharging their
duties .or more considerate of the public.
M hat hapened in Macon might, as easily
have happened in Savannah, or elsewhere,
though the affair might not have been so
well managed.
As to Charter Changes.
The News understands that a petition
»s in circulation asking the legislature to
refuse to make any changes in the char
ter ot the city of Macon, and that the
same is being warmly urged by a certain
local taction.
In this matter The News stands exactly
where it did three years ago, when certain
other changes in the charter were shown
to be desirable. It is all nonsense to say
that because a certain man is strong po
litically. the mayor of Macon should not
be allowed to succeed himself in office as
many times as the people of Macon want
him. It is even worse to say that an ai
derman has outlived his usefulness after
he has been iu office for one or two terms
Experience teaches that just the opposite
is true. We don't believe there is a man
who ever served in council who will not
say that he is of more value as an aider
man during his second or third or fourth
term than he was touring his first term It
requires a year for an aiderman to become
familiar with his duties, and it is two
years before he Is really an aiderman. Af
ter that his usefulness increases in pro
portion as he familiarizes himself with
the conduct of municipal affairs.
We care not who is in council, or who
is in the mayor's chair they should re
main there as long as a majority of the
people want them to remain. And to trv
to legislate them out is a piece of high
handed business indeed.
We do not tx-lieve the legislature will
pay' any attention to stich a petition as the
"outs" have !n -circulation.' Certainly they
should not do so. As for the other features
of the bill now before the legislature, they
have either been suggested or approved
by the people's representatives in council
and they should be enacted into law with
out reference to the objection of anv fac
tion.
Fix the Roads.
The atention of the county commission- !
ere and of the road board 1« called to the
roads leading from the city through the I
Ocmulgee Land Company's property to the
the militaryeamps at Ocmulgee Park. We
believe one of these roads is a public road,
but whether It is or not, the countv au- I
thorities should see to It that it is put i
in jierfect repair at. once. } n fact, should
the road force be used to work all the j
roads leading to the camp such action, '
though It be somewhat irregular, j
would be generaly approved. It is
now practically imposeible to reach the
camp except through Mineville, and this
state of affairs does not speak well for i
our city and county. The soldiers now in
camp are of immense benefit to this com- •
munity, and it is our* duty to see to it •
that their stay is made as pleasant and
themselves as comfortable as possible. It
is to be hoped the proper authorities will
lake immediate action on this matter, and
have the roads mentioned put in thorough
repair at once.
For the Heathen in America.
FOR THE HEATHER IN AMERICA—
Along with the production of "The
Christian,” Hall Caine’s great play in New
York city, comes a story in the New York
Journal, of a young girl, Kate Collins,
aged nine, who, until! last week, had never
heard of the existence of a God.
In reply to questions put to her in the
court room she answered innocently
enough, that she "didn’t know him;" that
she "had no soul,” and that “all bad peo
ple went to the Tombs.” This was her
whole idea of life. Os the hereafter she
had never heard.
According to the story, the good Sisters
of -Charity, who now have charge of the
child, say there are scenes of just such
children within a stone’s throw of the
New York City Hall, and hundreds in the
entire city. In contemplating a case of
this sort can we wonder that there are
criminals in the world, or marvel at the
wickedness, the utter depravity of New-
York’s “East Side.”
The evident purpose of the Journal's
publication is to demonstrate the folly of
spending millions of dollars every year to
change the creed of people In foreign lands
whom we call “heathens,” While allowing
cases of this sort to multiply— yea .almost
at the age of pubity—right in the midst of
our own boosted civilization. And the
point is well taken. Indeed circumstances
seem to have conspired to give it force, to
bring it before the consciences of the New
fork public.
The Journal’s story calls attention to the
great social and religious reform sugges
ted by Hall Ca-ine’s play, “The Christian,”
which has recently been witnessed by sev
eral hundred thousand New Yorkers. It
proves the existence of a condition in
New York City quite as horrible as that
which Hall Caine describes in London; and
it proves, too, the need for more active,
earnest, practical work in behalf of the
heathens here at home.
Some days ago a preacher raided SIIB,OOO
at a single meeting in New York City so
foreign missions. In a spirit oi religion’
frenzy men subsorbed fabulous sums, and
women stripped themselves of their jewel
ry to aid in the great work of changing
the diet of cannibals and the creed of the
Celestial. , They thought they were doing
God's work; but in their frenzy they lost
slight of the poor, miserable 'heathens right
at their doors. The case of little Katie
Collins is enough to dndeH'ibly impress
upon our own people, and especially those
in New York, file thought that it is best
to sweep in front of our own doors before
worrying about our neighbors yard. What,
for -instance, might China say to us when
we -are forced to confess that there are
hundreds, yes, even thousands, right here
in our own country who have not only
never heard of -the existence of God, -but
who are not even aware of the fact that
they have a soul?
A Tennessee editor writes as follows:
"The villain who sent us a stuffed buzzard
for a Thanksgiving turkey will hear from
us if we can ever lay our male hand on
Iris physical astronomy. We didn’t eat
more than 'half of the foul before we dis
covered our mistake, but that don’t miti
gate rhe insult.”
Charles W. Couldock, -the veteran actor,
is lying at the point of death in -New York.
He is afflicted -with dropsy of the heart,
and has been ill for three weeks. Since
the death of William Warren and John
Gilbert several yeans ago, Mr. Couldock
could lay claim to being the oldest actor
on the New York stage.
The difference between Sampson and
'Dewey is forcibly shown in the fact that
the latter is writing articles telling how
he did it, while -Dewey has refused an of
fer of $5,000 for an article of t-he same
kind.
The president of Yiale University has of
fered his resignation. The Memphis Com
mercial-Appeal thinks that Yale’s defeat
by Harvard was more than he could stand.
Shf.rley bears -the uniqu-, distinction of
being the' only pugil’at wno has never
been whipped. How now, Fitz.
The suggestion -is made that the 'Wis
consin should be christened with beer, in
deference to Milwaukee.
Alabama will be soon out of debt. Gov
ernor Johnston has been after the tax
dodgers. .
NO RIGHT TO ANNEX.
Cuban Commissioners Say this Country Must
Stand by Its Promise.
By Associated Press. *
New York, Nov. 25.—The Cuban com
missioners who came to the United States
to offer -President McKinley the views ot
the Cuban leaders on the future govern
ment of the island expect to go to Wash
ington Monday or Tuesday. One of the
commissioners, Jo«se R. Villaion, expresses
some decided views on the subject of the
future of Cuba.
"Is the strength of the annexationists
very great in Cub?” he was asked.
“No,” he replied, "and if it were it
would make no difference. The United
States has declared to the world that it
does not intend to annex Cuba and so that
ends it. It can do nothing but recognize
our indeoendenee. In the meantime it is
pracically governor of the island, a> J we
can do nothing without its permission It
could not annex us without a political
revolution and that is impossible."
"Gen. Nunez said that Gen. Fitzhugh
Lee would hardly make a good governor
of the.island, as he had formed oninions,
and was apparently in -favor of annexa
tion.”
"Do you agree with him?” was asked.
"Any gentlemanly soldier would make
a good governor and especially Gen. Lee,
since he knows our laws and customs and
our traditions. A man wno knew nothing
about these, subjects would hardly be ac
ceptable to us.”
“Do you anticipate that there will be
any trouble between the Cubans and our
forces when the time comes for the occu
pation of the whole island?"
"There will be no trouble,” he said, af
ter a long pause, “if the United States
forces behave themselves. If they are
kept under strict control, if they are gov
erned by‘of fleers who know their business
we will welcome them with open arms.”
"Do you object to our troops at Santiago
because some of them are negroes?”
“Not at all. We have no race troubles
in our country and many of the best men
in our army are negroes.”

SALE OF WHISKY
IN “DRY” COUNTIES.
Butts, Washington, Spalding,
Monroe and Others Have
Learned that Prohi
bition Does Not
Prohibit,
Editor News: You recently published in
your paper, or someone did, a clipping
from the Jackson Argus, -telling about
“Liquor Selling in Jackson.” It was there
stated that prohibition had by no means
stopped the sale of liquor in Jackson, that
blind tigers were numerous, that there was
practically as much drunkness as ever—•
caused from “cider,” I ibelive.
I also noticed in yesterday’s 'felegraph
a clipping from the Sandersville Progress,
telling about the sale of whisky in Wash
ington county, and stating very plainly
that -if prihibition operates no better in
Bibb than it does in Washington it would
be far better to let thngs remain as they
are. That there are more blind tigers
than there were formerly bar rooms in the
county, etc.
I aim also reliably informed that Spauld
ing county has hiad the same experience,
and I know that the same is true of Mon
roe county. I understand that it is as easy
to buy whisky in Griffin and Forsyth as It
ever was—-the only difference -being that
formerly you could see where to go,
whereas now you have to ask. In one of
these towns -there used to be nine saloons
and now it has sixteen blind tigerp, ac
cording to reliable information and the
records.
If 1 understand the situation, the differ
ence is that the above counties and -towus
■have been deprived of the revenue that
formerly arose from the legal sale of
whisky, that scores of reputable
dealers have been driven out of
each community, and that outlaws have
taken their places, selling the vilest sort
of stuff where it seems impossible for the
law 'to reach them.
Now I would ask you if it is impossible
to prevent the unlawful sale of -whisky in
those small towns and sparsely settled
counties, -how, in the name of common
sense, can we hope to do /better in a thick
ly populated community like this, where
detection of such places is, 'necessarily,
more difficult? For my part, I -must con
fess 'that I much prefer to have the law
regulate than not to regulate the sale of
whisky. -An Observer.
