ZZ' Tne Fate of a Firebrand.
The News, together with nearly every'
other daily paper in the state, took occa
sion jome time slmte to rebuke one Dr.
Broughton, an Atlanta pulpit
»alist who. in a so-called “sermon,” on At- I
lama society, uttered, in a house devoted
supposedly, to, the worship of God some of
The meat vile slandens and blasphemes
that ev<*r fell from the lips of a human be
ing. Ho did not hurl his devilish denun
ciations against cock ty alone, but. through
ignorance and prejudice, went so far as to
attack a chaws of religious women for i
whom even the most hardened criminal of i
the slums shows reverence.*
This man 'Broughton probably did not
< ven believe what he said; but he had
tried every other means of -attracting at- ;
tention in Atlanta, and his strongest bid i
for notoriety. He succeeded, though the j
right sort of man could not have relished
the sort of notoriety he secured —for he ;
was denounced in the plainest, terms by i
almost every paper in the state. ißut for
•Broughton it was enough. Forthwith he
wanted to break away from his suburban
environments and move right into the
heart of the city, His little church on the
outskirts of Atlanta did not measure up to
his standard; an up-town church was •
.about his size. So he decided to take the
church with him. and started a movement
to that effect. Although the present
church was doubtless established in that ,
section of the city for the purpose of giv- j
ing the residents of that locality a house ’
in which to worship God, and although the
need for it there is probably as great as '
ever, an up-town church was the goal of
Broughton's ambition. So it had to go.
The movement culminated last night in a ■
scene within the church that the Atlanta |
papers say was most unusual and certain- I
ly not altogether respectable. Broughton"
was jerred and laughed at by many of his I
congregation, some of whom even went
so far as to call his religion in question.
.Jerrtd and scorned by members of his'
own church until he shed tears —of an- '
ger. no doubt, rather than shame.
Thus was this rampant sensationalist •
rebuked by his own flock. And who shall
say that the rebuke was not deserved; or I
that those responsible for it have not, in
a measure, redeemed their church from '
The stigma of Broughtonism. Although
in rhe minority and although forced to see
the Broughton partisans move their church
from under them, so to speak, they at
least have left to them the knowledge
that are worshipers of God and not
Broughton.
Decorate.
There is no wav in which Macon can
better acknowledge the compliment of the
President’s visit to this citv than by dis
playing the national colors. It is an act
peculiarly appropriate to the occasian,
and, at the same time, it will indicate the
broad, progressive spirit that dominates
this community.
But the President’s visit should not be
the only incentive for our merchants to
decorate on that occasion: they should be
glad to do so in recognition of the first
formal review of the large body of troops
located here, and whose presence is 'so
beneficial to this community.
Every soldier now in Macon will take it
as a compliment to the military, and ap
preciate all t b e more that this spirit is
shown by our people on the occasion of the
President’s visit. At a meeting of the sub
committee of arrangements held today the
President of the Chamber of Commerce
was requested to call on our merchants
and citizens and secure iheir promises to
decorate their homes and places of busi
ness. It is to be hoped the movement will
meet with general encouragement.
Pay of Assessors.
1 h< tax bill now betore the Legislature,
'While a good one in every other respect,
has.one very objectionable feature. We
refer to the clause fixing the pay of asses
sors at $2 per day.
It must be apparent to everyone that such
• compensation cannot secure the services of
the righ; sort of men. and. certainly, none
but the best men should be charged with
this important duty.
The duties of a tax assessor require a
great amount of knowledge and general
business ability, and during the time the
assessors are at work they must devote
themselves almost entirely to these duties.
It stands to reason that no good business
man can afford to neglect his own affairs
to serve 'he public for such a pittance.
The bill should -be amended so as to
make the pay of assessors not less than $5
per day. This in justice to the assessors
as well as Vo secure for the state the ser
vices of th. gvery best men.
Liquor License.
• The News’ advice with reference to the
local liquor license has had a tendency to
_ ! bring ;ome of the extremists to their
senses. The movement for a reduction of
the license has met with considerable dis-
■ courage me nt already as a result of the
| warning sounded a few days ago.
■ ! Those people directly interested in the
i liquor business who were at first disposed
to ask that the bridle be taken off, so to
i speak, are beginning to realize that they
■ are simply playing into the hands of their
' entmies. Those who voted against prohi-
> i bition in the recent election because they
, j conscientiously favored high license, freely
announce their opposition to a reduction
of the license and many of them declare
that such action on the part of council
would force them into the prohibition
; rank?.
j The prohibitionists themselves are dis- I
; pos< d to keep quiet on the subject, doubt-
■ less hoping that the liquor men will be
I given enough rope to hang themselves,
j One of them has said to The News: “While
it would be wrong to lower the license,
yet we prohibitionists wouldn't object to
it, because we think it would result in
; good in the end. Still. I am frank to say j
j the liquor men would be'very foolish to |
I insist upon it.”
i This is significant enough. If the liquor I
men of Macon can’t understand it, then :
their fate be on their own heads.
The Road Commissioners will be asked ■
to .nut the roads leading to Canap For- ’
nance in repair at once that the Presi- j
dent's party may be driven to the camp I
without danger to life or limb. It isto be
hoprd the authorities willl bear Lu mind
that the President's visit may lead, to the
establishment of a permanent army camp
at iMacon, and it is to our interests,
therefore, to make things as atfaotive as
possible.
Macon has never yet failed! in the proper
entertainment of a public guest. 3"& at rhe 1
i city will put on gala attire om the coecasion
of the President’s visit goes*' vftbum say
ing.

a menace to every community in which ;

MACON NEWS THURSDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 8 1898.
PEOPLE’S FORUM.
Prohibition Aftermath.
Mr. Editor: Usually you are fearless la
condemning rhe wrong, and a man who
will invariably do this is a blessing to
any community. You cannot mend some
matters, but an earnest, vigorous protest
semetimes renders further infractions im
possible.
I presume chat we pretty generally
agree that rottenness characterized the
methods employed t>y the liquor traffic in
the recent prohibition election—if we do
not, samples of these methods are at hand
for investigation, fully vouched for by
their odor, and by those- present who were ;
affected by their stench. May I give you
ju?t one illustration in point—there are i
plenty in reserve .should they be required. '
We have all earnestly contended that this
is a white man’s country, and yet the
; liquor traffic enfranchised 2,2<X) negroes ‘
during this last month —for all of these, i
with the fewest possible exceptions—were
put ipon the registration Lists by them.
They paid their taxes, took up their tax
receipts in job lets, and thus the iowest
and vilest class of negroes were made
qualified voters and are today a menace
to everything decent in our conrmuuity.
I will not discuss the character of the ne-
' groes registered further than to say that
I at least rhree hundred of them have serv
ed their time on the chaingang, to which
j service they will probably be speedily re- ;
’ turneel with ample reinforcements. But
I let us come to the item referred to. and
. you can easily form some idea of the tac
tics ooserved by the liquor traffic*.. Six
■ hundred and, fifteen negroes are registered
! from the “Lower City” district —and you
' know who had their registration in '
I charge.. It is generally understood that a '
' man just twenty-one years of age can vote j
t without the payment of taxes. Out of the j
615 negroes 23$ of them are precisely 21 :
years of age—were good enough to l attaiim j
their majority just for the prohibition I
election. Mark you, 23S out of 615. Now ;
there are 3,600 whites registered from the j
entire county, and out of this entire I
ber only 244 claim to be just 21 years of !
age. In other words, the liquor traffic
seems to be able to find in the “Lower
City” district out of 615 negroes as many
who have recently attained their major
ity as can be found in the whole cournty
our. of 3,600 whites who have registered.
This is bare-faced fraud, tor the preof is
at hand to show that mmy of these we- I
groes are anywhere frdm 06: to 30 1 yean? jtf |
age. though others of them seem to have .
no personal existence.
Now’ who will undertake to stand spon- I
sor for the liquor traffic and say that it.!
had no complicity in this brazen swindle? ■
I insist, Mr Editor, thait you have been
i careful in the past to protest agpjns.r. i
wiong, even not hesitating to criticise '
matters occurring in the prohibition, teivt, i"
which were not to your liking, nor did i.
you hesitate to voice your objection, even ,
to the presence of our mothers and sisters; |
at the polls. ;
With this record behind you. and! wiAhi i
the above information at hand, can you ■
refrain an earnest condemnation of ;
such methods or of the traffic whiteh- ren- ■
ders such methods possible?

A Horne Car ns a Houseboat.
Anchored down at the foot of Monroe ■
j street, in the Ohio river, is a houseboat 1
i which originally moved over the streets of
Nashville as a common, everyday horse
car. A prettier houseboat cknnot be found
in the colony of such craft that, throng '
Paducah’s water front. The body of the ■
car has simply been mounted on a small
hull, which was large enough to leave a
narrow deck all around the car. There
is, of course, a door at either end, and the
square windows are neatly curtained. The
interior furnishings of the car have been i
torn away, with the exception of one seat, *
and in their place two small but cozy liv-
■ ing rooms may be seen within. The
i street car houseboat was built at Nashville ;
i by an enterprising genius who bid in the ■
| car at a sale of “bobtails.” It was towed
i down the Cumberland to this city by an
electric launch. l‘aducah (Ky.) News i

A Groat Apple Tree.
Albert Ham, a farmer of West Dresden, !
Me., has an apple tree in his orchard which
measures 9 feet 10 inches in circumference |
a foot from the ground, and at the height ■
1 of six feet the trunk branches into four
limbs almost as large. Its great limbs are
full of crooks and angles, but. the whole '
makes a most shapely tree. It is over a
century old and has borne well for each
year of the 47 it has been in Mr. Ham’s
possession. One year it gave him 43 bush- i
els of good apples.
Oilcloth Ceiling*.
Oilcloth is the new material for paper- j
1 ing ceilings, the term “paper” being used
at present, in a very elastic sense, signify- ■
j ing anything that can be put on walls or ’
; ceiling. The advantage of an oilcloth '
' ceiling is readily iliscernible, as dust, like
| good actions, is sure to rise, and if one's .
j home is illuminated by gas or lamps there
is only the recourse to the unsightly chan
delier protectors to keep the ceiling frem ’
getting smudged. The oilcloth can be
washed frequently and be kept, by the aid
of a damp cloth, as good as new for in
finite spaces of time or until cue rr-jyes tc
a newer apartment.
The task of putting on the oilcloth re
quires an expert, as the joining is not the
easiest thing to do. If you think so, try it.
The patterns of oilcloths seein particularly
, well adapted for ceilings, with their scroll
and line effects, which do not conflict with
the patterns of the wall paper or its mono
chromatic effect.
In line with the ceilings is the new ma
terial for kitchen window curtains.—New
York Herald.
Broke tbe Kecortl.
A London paper says that an adjutant
in the Salvation Army has achieved the
remarkable feat of singing 59 hymns in
! 59 minutes. The occasion on which this
record was made was called a “singing
battle.” He began with ’ I Will Follow
. Jesus,” and hymn after hymn followed
swiftly. When he reached the doxology
after singing eight extra hymns he was
i ‘c l 4 minutes ahead of the stipulated time.
When he finished, he shouted, “Bless the
j Lord, I've broken the record!”
