Offices: 412 Cherry Street CnTon * Weather Report for Georgia. —— , t ■ Fair tonight and Wednesday. Flags llntt I d. x myriad of American flags were un- ! burled in otir new' pc-sessions yesterday. Over on the other side of the globe Ad- 1 irtiral Dewey ordered that Old Glory should ! be spread numerously in all ports where i ■his ships were at anchor, whether in the (Philippine hanbofa or those of the Chinese coast. In Cuba' and Porto Rico they were displayed from every housetop as ‘it were, «o eager were the people to show upon I <’hristma» day their loyalty to the United i States. The. Spanish captain general •in i Havana withdrew all objections and a j iankee speculator who had .smuggled into Ihe town a cargo of America! flags, made a fortune by selling them at high prices. The 'Spaniards will complete their evac nation of Cuba by 12 o'clock, noon, of next i (Sunday and at that hour, with the thun- I derous salute of twenty-one gurs, the Spanish banner will fall frern the staff of: Morro Ca tie, and the stars and stripes will be unfurled in i<s place, thus signaliz- : mg the absolute termination of ' Spanish rule in the western world'. The event will I be dramatic In the highest degree. It will mark the end of A war that, while it lasted only nine months, wrought more changes , in thj: map c. f the world than any other of i t he •'(■■’nt ury. Colonel 'Patrick Henry Ray threatens to' make the Cubans in his district .stop steal- | ing. This is liable to bring on an other • ■insurrection. Don’t. Vs already iorfca-iid in The News, a petition will be presented to council to- ' night asking that the present liquor li cense of SSOO be reduced to S3OO or less. 1 The News has expressed itself on this ' proposition before, and, after hearing the argument presented by the liquor dealers, we can sc no reason to change our views. We frankly admit that the war tax has im posed an extra burden on them, but they have borne it -o far and have made money. This tax, in all probability. will soon be removed; but whether it is or not, ,there ks no reason why it should affect cur local la ws. The present local, license is small ! enough; indeed, it would be better if it ; were $750. To reduce it would certainly be ■ unwise and hurtful. We think the liquor men are pursuing a ' suicidal policy in demanding a reduction of tae license, and we earnestly hope council ■ will not make the mistake of acceding to | ■their d< mantis. \fter the ladies have unseated Congress man Roberts, it is quite possible that ihey "ill turn taeir attention to Congressman i Booze. A man with that, name has no con- I stitutional right to a seat in congress. A Macon Author. T he most appreciable Christmas gift re ceived by The News is “The Stone Creek ' W reck. by Air. W. F. Combs, from the press of F. Tennyson Neely, of New York ■and Londonfl a most attractive and inter esting book dealing with the famous trag edy enactfd near Macon ‘two years ago. Mr. Combs. the author, was at one time busine-s manager of The News, so that ! his literary effort is given an add'tiona’i in ♦ teres t for hi.s old associates, and aside from this it i«s ( a book of real intercut and mer’t. Ihe story told by Mr. Combs is one of the meet thri iirg in the criminal • istcry of j America, and the book should take high rank among publications of this class, as it no loubt will. The author is a hi m of high talents and in “The Stone Creek Wreck" he has given the public the best of which he is capable—which is a suffi cient guarantee of i?s merit. W'ith a milk trust, a bread trust and a eoftin trust, the poor man Is caught coming and goiqg. remarks an exchange. •• t’. Bi< Battleship Cannot Leave. The naval authorities- have learned to 'their dismay that it is not possible for one of our big battleships, like the Oregon or Massachusetts, 'to get out of Nek York harbor during txtra low water, such as pre vailed when the latter battleship struck •diamond reef a short time ago. To aid the court of inquiry now in session in New > ork trying to ascertain the responsibility for rhe grounding, the navy department called upon the coast survey for special •measurements of the water in the harbor near Diamond reef and upon <he rock it self. The. r< port of the superiirtendent of the survey has just been received, and it shows, in the opinion of the naval officers that it is not possible for a ship the size o f the Afas'sachiiseiits, and with her maneu vering qualities, to get out of the harbor without touching the bottom when the tide is ebb and the wind strong. Os course these cond'tions are not normal in the har- but they may occur on any low tide with the wind in a certain quarter, so the matter will be brought -at once to the ~ attention of congress with a view to secur ing the removal of the upper pari of Dia mond reef. The Cordele Hornet makes this explana tion: "The difference now between the Ma on Telegraph and rhe Cordele Sentinel is this: sou know who coils the Telegraph bir you don’t know ho owns it: but you know who owns the Sentinel and yet caiG tell who edits it." Parts to Be Cancelled. It is the purpose of the state department ■ | to move toward the cancellation of that r part of the Clayton-Bui wer treaty which I prcbl-bits the cons Unction or control of the I Nicaraguan caucl by Great Britain or the I Vnkcd States. It can be authoritatively ! stated, however, -that while the d.pirtment I has long been disposed to accept the view ! of some publicists to*the effect that the treaty is still in force, it did not contem -1 plate a formal opening of negotiations to i secure the desired amen ’merc until Con ■ grtss had made some progress, at least, . toward the enactment of the 'Nicaraguan I canal bill. The obvious purpose is to pre vent the department from being placed in the -false position of negotiating for an ob ject which congress may. before 'the con clusion, deem to be undesirable. After the I experience bad with the general arbitra -1 tion treaty, there U a particularly strong ' t’tsinclination to be placed again in thin attitude. However, now that the matter has been publicly brought into such prom inence, the negotiations may be opened at an earlier date that was orgiaally con templated, though it may be taken for 'granted that their intimation will be an evidence of the President’s conviction that Congress w ill eurely pass some acceptable canal bill before adjourning. Although the gain to English commerce that may fairly be expected to result from the construe ion of the canal by the Amer ican government will make the waterway ' as important to Great Britain as it is to j the t'nited States, there is still evidence i going, to show that the British government may seize upon the opportunity to ask for j a quid pro quo. It is hard to perceive Just now what shape this will take, but it 1 3 suggested, with considerable plausibility, , that this may afford the key to the solu- • tion of the reciprocity problem, which has j so greatly embarrassed the Canadian high , joint commission. In other words. In con sideration of .the relicuishment of her rights in the Nicaraguan Canal. England may ask for Canada a much more liberal reciprocity treaty than can be arranged ' under existing conditions. . Altgeld wants to be mayor of Chicago. And this, too, in riie face of recent threats. • The South anti the Canal. The people of the South are, fortunately, beginning to realize that their Interest is jt* .t as great as that of the people of the . North, in the extension of our foreign j trade, and the creation and maintenance of i a merchant marine of .our own. The;y are j quick to see and eager to secure the betne- J fits that will come to the nation as a re- | suit of building the Nicaraguan canal. They know right well that the Nicaraguan canal may be to the commerce of our Southern states what the opening of the Suez was to Great Britain. The .Jackson Argus, reproducing the in- I terview with Senator A. O. Bacon, recently j published in The News, says: "Major Bacon. Georgia’s senior senator, j is known to be one of the ablest men in I the senate. His views cn all public oucs ' tions are largely sought and are accorded great respect. His views cn the acquisi -1 tion of the Philippine islands are clear I and to the point. Whether they are right I or wrong we do not undertake to say. but : they are clear enough to be understood by ; our readers and they may put their esti mate upon them." It is expected at the Interior D-'.-irt meut that the newly appointed secretary. Mr. Hitchcock, will assume charge of the office during the later week in January. Secretary Bliss has worked hard during the past month to get the business of the office in shape to turn over to his succes- J j aor ary time after the beginning of the , I new year. It is said at the department ; j that the work is nearly up to date, and the ; office in better shape to turn over to a < ■ new head than ever before. It is stated by cabinet members, says a Washington dispatch, that nothing of con-' i sequence comes from the Philippines. The | situation there is apparently quiet and is t not so st’gined as to cause notice to bo ' taken by the officials. The administration , believes that the insurgents will quietly j settle down, as they have been advised to i do from the beginning, and will cause no cerious trouble. ! The leading society women of New York • —that is those of the more self-respecting sort—<iave inaugurated a fight against di- i vorce. Mrs. John King Vanßenseller has published a list of persons of the first so cial prominence in which all who had fig ured in a divorce proceeding were cmit- 1 ted. and she is being followed by others ’ who haA’e declared war upon the evil. The late Calvin S. Brice was one of*the heaviest life insura’hee investors in the Union. H's policies aggregate $1,000,000. George Gould carries the same, vvhile John j Wanamaker carries $1,500,000. Judge Ste i venson ccines next with $360,000. William ! Huntington carries $350,000; Harvey Brown $200,000, while iMark 'Hanna only carries I a little measley SIOO,OOO. i The Columbus Evening Ledger makes this announcement today; “Beginning with this issue Mr. Harry A. Wilkinson. j formerly of the Asosciated Press of At lanta. assumes the editorship of the The Ledger, and yill in future control and give direction to its editorial policy. Mr. R. W. Page will direct the business af fairs of the The Ledger in the future as in the past." The Savannah Evening Journal, which ' started October 10th. has suspended pub , lication. The paper failed to make is ap pearance on account of laborers’ liens taken out against the owners for salaries due. With the afternoon field so well ■ filled as it is by the Press, there was no opening for a trial paper in Savannah. Mayor Price: "They'rf after me." VERY GOOD POETRY.

A few years ago a few New Englanders on account of the condition of their health xvent down south looking for a mild and healthy location for the winter months and they selected a location in the high bills of North Carolina amid the long leaf pines. There they established homes and named the place Southern Pines, and from : year to year their friends joined them 1 until hundreds and thousands of people [ from the north have been attracted to the location. Liltle has been said about this unique settlement, with its fine hotels, electric car lines, electric lights and every mc-dcM n convenience. »But the fact is. it is the. most beautiful place in the union, a most delightful place to spend the win ter months and here the northern men and southern men meet in friendly reunion. Just now a .’host enjoyable program is be ing arranged for the commercial travelers end business men of America, in the way of a banquet, which is to be given in the Piney Woods Inq, on the evening of Jan uary Jth and the indications are that com meicial men will go there from all pars of the union. Hon. John. Wanamaker, of Philadelphia, Mr. James W. Tufts, of Bos ton, aud other prominent men are expect ed to _£»e present and make talks. A NARROW ESCAPE. ■ t .
