An Unwarranted Slander.
We find the following in the Savannah
Journal: V
“Commenting upon the fact that in Ma
con ‘the antis nut red dresses on negro
•women and decorated them with red rib
lx>ns in opposition to the best women in
1-hf land, who were wearing white’ the Col
quit County Courier makes this pertinent
comment:
“We wish to warn Macon; onlv a few
years since Wilmington, N. C., was as free
from riot and bloodshed as Macon, but we
assert that like begets like, and Macon in
the near future mav be compelled to imi
tate Wilmington. God forbid! but we can
nee nothing else in store for the fair city
of Macon.”
All of which goes to show wha-t an im
pression has .been created throughout the
state concerning the recent prohibition
election held in this county. How do you
like the picture? Leaving prejudices and
prohibition views a/ide, is it a fair one?
For our part, we are prepared to as
sert the contrary, and to inform our Col
quit County eon temporary that its solici
tude is wholly out of order, -n the firct
ipl .ee, it is a base slander to say that anti
prohibitionists “dressed negro women in
red” or “decorated them with red stream
er ” or otherwise offended the deceny of
the community after the manner indica
ted. That seme negro women wore red
badges on the day of election is -probably
1 rue, just as some wore white badges, but
10 say that they were “used” in such a
way as to give offence or provoke critic
ism is worse than an exaggeration.
The election in question was one of the
irw, if not the only one, ever held in Bibb
< ounty in which colors were used to desig
nate the views of the opposing factions,
and it would have been remarkable, in
deed, had these colors not been misused
t , n the way stated; but certainly not at the
suggestion, nor even with the permission
of those in charge of the campaign, to
whom, no doubt, such misuse of their
colors was as distasteful as to anyone 'else.
The fact that the negro vote was an im
portant factor in the prohibition election
■fans led to all sorts of exaggerations along
this line, although it has often been more
a factor in former elections hold in this
'•ounty. Heretofore, however, the white
'voters have been able to divide the negro
vote somewhat more evenly between their
opposing sides, hence no great objection
-was made to the negro's use of the ballot
though invariably recognized as being in
o lage measure a bought ballot.
The News has not seen fit to defend the
•methods pursued in the recent election,
for the reason that they were too much
like former methods, like the methods in |
vogue all over Georgia, to suit us. The
only innovation with reference to the |
negro vote, so far as we could see, was the
daily and nightly appeals made by -a cer
tain faction to the “brother in black.’’
who was urged to “demand his rights,”
encouraged to believe that hs was as good :
tis anybody” and all that sort of thing
which we considered decidedly more dan
gerous. though certainly more' legal, than
the time-honored, or dishonored, practice
of appealing to the negro in a more direct
way. The methods invariably pursued by
honorable Democrats in their effort to de
feat other honorable Democrats in the
absence of a party primary.
We know these admissions do not look
well in print for either side, or for Georgia
(politics as a whole, but it is the truth, and
we all know it, whether we like to hear it -
or not.
With these facts before us. it is not a
difficult task to form a rational idea of
what the recent prohibition election in this
county was like. The negro figured in it,
to be sure, just as he has always figured
in Southern elections, where there was no
primary action. Except, as stated, that
he was appealed to in a rather dangerous
way by those who departed from the cus
tomary -plan of reaching the negro. He
voted as strongly and as solidly as he ever
does when in the hands of experienced :
workers. He may have voted more than
once or he may have forgotten his own
name for the time being, all of which ihas
been known to happen in former elections,
though, we are inclined to think, on a
somewhat larger scale than was true of I
the recent prohibition election.
In fact, whatever abuses occurred in the I
last election held in this ebunty are, as |
we almost admit, the direct outcome of i
lax election laws and still more lax meth
ods which custom has established so
strongly that nothing short of a new hal
lo- law will ever eradicate them. 'Abuses
first inaugurated by our people as a whole
for the righteous purpose of preventing
negro supremacy in the South, and next
by opposing factions of whites for the pur
pose of defeating each other. We may
envelgh against them as much as we
please. but they are abuses of thirty years
standing, and not peculiar to the Bibb
county prohibition election. Savannah has
witnessed a hundred times worse and only
c. few days ago the opposing Kerr and
Walsh factions in Augusta proved the
truth of The News’ statement that the
negro is simply used by one faction against
the other—though we apologize for men
tioning the Bibb county prohibition con
test in the same breath with that round
up of negro voters in Augusta at $5 per
bead. •
We have seen quite as bad in some other
towns in Georgia, but never in Macon, and
we are proud to say the recent prohibition
election does not deserve to be compared
with the Augusta affair. If the negro
figured in it to any considerable extent,
he did so by virtue of our present ballot
law. And, by the way, our prohibition
friends did not armear. before the elect
lion. averse to receiving hie support,
though it le. perhaps, an entirely different
matter, as of course it is, when he votes
the other wav.
This much, not in defense or criticism
of either faction, but in simple justice to
Macon and Bibb county, whose traducers
have not stopped to establish facte before
advertising this community far and near
as having succumbed to negro domination
—another Wilmington. N. C., where negro
women are arrayed in red streamers and
paraded by white workers in apposition to
re»pectable ladies. -We resent -this, and
all like slanders, and we call upon all who
love Macon to correct such misrepresenta
tions wherever they hear them.
If, however, this agitation results in se
curing for Georgia a new ballot law that
will take the use of the franchise away
from the ignorant and vicious and place
it in the hands only of those qualified by
nature for.the trust, then some good
i have come out of evil, after all.
‘ The next time Atlanta invitee the pres
ident of the United States to ibe her guest,
she should see that everybody albcut the
state house is pacified.
Jin Execrable TaSfe<
A story has been sent out from Atlanta
to the effect that Secretary of State Phil
Cook caused something of a sensation at
the capital on Monday by refusing to let a
picture of President (McKinley be placed
over the door of his department along
I with other decorations that were being put
up in honor of the President’s viait to
Georgia’s capital.
If the story is true. Secretary Cook has
made a very foolish mistake, to say the
least of it. His conduct on the occasion
referred to -will not be approved by the
people of Georgia, regardless of their par
ty affiliations. Such action as he is said
to be guilty of is certainly unbecoming in
a man who occupies so exalted -a position,
it is both surprising and annoying in view
of the happy feeling that is everywhere
manifested between the men of the north
and the men of the South. Republicans
and Democrats; it is especiall out of place
on the very eve of a celebration such as is
about to take place in Georgia’s capital
city, with the object of Secretary 'Cook’s
spleen the guest of honor on that occa
sion.
We admire Seeretaray Cook’s Democra
cy, and we concur with -him in his oppo
sition to negro office holders; but we can
not approve either the time or manner of
his criticism. His Democracy and -loyalty
to Southern traditions have ever been rec
ognized by -all who know' him, but he is
no better Democrat for having offered this
offense to the President of the United
States almost at the hour of his arrival as
Georgia's special guest. For McKinley
the partisan, we have no more, admiration
than is entertained for him by Mr. -Cock,
but for McKinley the President, we have
all dire respect, and we are prepared to
relegate politics while doing honor to the
natibns’s chief executive.
And.if this is not the spirit that actuated
Atlanta, Savannah, 'Macon, Augusta
and other cities in inviting him to be their
guest, then they have been guilty of gross
deception. We are quite willing at the
proper -time to make Mr. McKinley’s ap
pointment of negrtes to office in the .South
and issue, but our duly as hos'ts makes any
■.illusion to the matter improper while he is
Georgia’s guest.
We cannot cry down the bloody-shirt
politicians of the North when we have
state house officials who make the Presi
dent’s politics, or even his official acts, an
excuse for insulting him while our guest.
It is hardly necessary, however, to em
phasize the fact that Secretary Cook is
practically alone in his position—'the peo
ple of Georgia as a Whole are too broad
for such things. In no state of the Union
are Southern traditions more sacred or
racial lines more rigidly fixed, but in no
state of the Union is there a more liberal
spirit displayed over the issues that once
divided us. The reception that will be ten
dered President McKinley and -party in the
four chief cities of the state will fully es
tablish this fact.
Ex-Governor Ncrthen made an able and
timely defense of the geological depart
ment before the senate finance committee,
and it is to be hoped that his effort will
save this most, important department.
Los Like Persecution,
When a. New York prosecuting attorney
gets hold of a case that the papers show
a disposition to “feature,” he never turns
loose. The more of the sensational he
manages to furnish the papers the more
they advertise him, and he soons becomes
famous. These considerations seem to
have actuated District Attorney -Mclntyre,
who is making great professional capital
out of the now* famous Moore case, in
which a former Atlanta girl is involved.
But to a mind that was somewhat prej
udiced against iboch of the defendants at
the outset, it begins to look like Attorney ■
Mclntyre is overdoing the thing. In [
Moore he undoubtedly has a very slick |
customer, though probably not a profes
sional swindler and hardened criminal, as
he is trying to establish. But in Mrs.
Moore, formerly IPet Strahan, of Atlanta,
he is evidently mistaken, at least in the
theory that she, too, is a professional of
the most dangeious type. In New York
they assume a great deal; if you are ar
rested, either by mistake or otherwise,
you are guilty until you have proven your
self innocent —and you are given precious
little opportunity to do that. In the case
of a woman, if she is bad, she is wholly
bad; her best points are construed to
merely accentuate her badness. To the po
lice she becomes at once a study in crim
inology, and to the newspaper reporters
ever eager for a sensation, she becomes a
sort of “pay streak” for unlimited epace
work.
Such seems to be Pet Strahan’s predica
ment. Indiscreet, she has. undoubtedly. i
been; just enough so to enable the news
papers to magnify her every act into one
of wantoness and criminality.
All of which will probably serve to
wreck her character, even though it be no
worse at the outset than that of thou
sands of others who still move in the
society from which she has fallen—or been
! pushed.
It is not always good policy to appear
as the apologist of a woman who has erred,
but to us the heartless, ghoulish manner
in which the sensational newspapers of
New York have pounced upon a defense
less young woman and have sought to tear
1 her character, (possibly not above re
proach) to shreds, is not only pitiable, but
infamous and cowardly in the extreme.
New York justice is indeed of a strange
kind, especially if it is aided and abetted
by the yellow journals. Pet Strahan, in
■ discreet as she was, whose life was fur
‘ ther marred by an unfortunate marriage,
lis the latest victim. The fact that they
' found such a victim somewhat out of the
i ordinary walks of life causes them to gloat
1 the more over their devilish work
MACON NEWS WEDNESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 14 1898-
His enemies are mad because Colonel
Bryan refused to hie himself to the jun
gles of Cuba to do poStce duty. If he were
not a very important factor In American
polities, his resignation would not disturb
them so.

Representative Hail, of Bibb, has met
with considerable success in smoking out
the tools *and agents of the railroads who
occupy seats in the Lower House of the
Georgia Legislature,
In attacking General Wheeler’s right to
a seat in congress Babe Bailey is simply
engaged in pulling the hole in after him.
Babe Bailey’s snarl at General Wheeler
brings to mind the old story of the little
dog that tried to bi&e General 'Lee’s army,
Macon is broad enough to receive the
president of the United States without
giving thought to his party affiliations.
The opportunity is still open for some
future -legislator to make fame by securing
the -Passage of a dog law for Georgia.
When as -good men as the four who were
■ elected to council yesterday offer for office,
I it is difficult to arouse opposition.
To think tha-t General Wheeler survived
Santiago only to fall a victim of Babe Bai
ley’s maudlin mendaetiy.
And now ex-Governor Atkinson should
appear before the senate committee and
try to save the “meJish.”
lA-tlanta is arranging -to have her popula
tion counted again during the Peace Jubi
lee celebration.
The expansionists in the United States
senate would probably like to pull down
their Vest.
There is just this difference between Sa
vannah and Atlanta hospitality—slo a
plate.
Secretary of State Phil Cook is evidently
an anti--McKinley Democrat.

Referring to Colonel Bryan’s resignation
the Albany Herald says: Colonel Bryan is
believed to have had the matter of re
signing under consideration for some time
and on his recent trip home he is sup
posed to have consulted his friends as to |
the course he would pursue. It is nat
urally to be inferred that his real friends j
have advised him to resign. There is no i
reason why he, the recognized leader of
the Democratic party of the country and
the logical candidate of the party for the
presidency in 1900, should go to Cuba to
do garrison duty. There is important
work for which he is pre-eminently fitted
for him to do at home. There is a plen
titude of colonels to do the garrison duty
that is to be done in Cuba, but there is
but one Bryan for the important work
that has already been cut out for the next
leader of the Democratic hosts in our next
campaign.
