Few people are so greedy as to take both sides of an argument. Twqnty thousand men are on 11 strike in. Bpslon, for an increase in wages and the situation is grave. DON'T CUT THE SCHOOL FUND. I ANNOUNCEMENTS- The Macon News is a recent valued,exchupg upon, our tuj)le, It is among the best evening papers in the state. The Nswbdoes not favor any measure that would cut down the public school fund jn Georgia, thereby keeping a single boy or girl from receiving a common school education. It is a fact that our appropria tion bill is too large, bui there are other means of cutting it down without touching the one above mentioned Which is the better, to increase the public school fund and allow the thousands of boys and girls in Georgia now out of school to learn to rend and write, or to.increase the. advantages ac cordingly for a higher education, which opportunities are Only taken advantage of by just a smiill per cent of the school population of the state? We are in favor of., a common school education, and also of the higher education, but we believe that the interests of the beginners, so to speak, should be looked after first. Give every bey and girl in Georgia a common school educa tion wul the institutions offering higher education will never suffer. A better foundation with which to build on is what we need. Aaron French, of Pittsburgh, the benefactor of the; Georgia School of Technology, is lying critically, ill at hjs borne in Pittsburg, The senate committee on the isthmian c.muls has ordered a fa- . vorable report on the Hepburn bill and the Atubama senator is happy. The war department has received details ot th6 awful march of Wal ler’s marines across Sqmar. The men lived* on dog meat and many of them became crazy. We admire the man that is true tp his friends in politics or any thing else, and do not believe it is right to encourage a. man. for office unless you intend to support him. The Landers case, on trial in, the federal-court in Atlanta for the misappropriation ot 920 in stamps has cost the government to. date over $1,000 and, may soon cost double that amount. Uncle Sam don’t cure tor, expenses when it comps.to punishing law violators, A negro woman has confessed to the sheriff ut ljcanmout, Texas, that she was at the head.oL a. gang of negro women, and white men who.had for months been luring men into her house, drugging^beut- :ng and robbing them. At least 50 strangers have been unaccounted for in the past three months. Why don’t somebody interview Tom Carling, of Macon, in regard to that Potts telegram? He knows what made the cat jump. Win. J. Bryan was in Wushing ton Thursday and created the im pression that he considers himself a presidential possibility in 1904. In an interview published in the Constitution yesterday'Mrs. Marie Louise Myrick declares that the charges against Berner connected with the Potts telegram are un founded. We don’t know how she found it out, but we do know that Guerry had better not cross her. For Representative.

His last effort is a “rye straw*’ telegram purported to.be from tbe president of the Liquor Association endors ing Berner in his candidacy for state senator way back yonder in '96. and,of which he uccuses Ter- tell of being the originator and propagator.
