The war is over; hostilities were suf pended several months ago, but the stamp tax is with us still. New York is to be congratulated. She is soon to have telephone Connec ticut with Atlanta. —Macon News. Men who are buying .Spanish bonds, even at a discount, would be easy marks for an amateur gold brick oper ator. An old darKey puts it in rhyme as follows: “Thanksgivin’come but onct a year, When do white folks done, I’ll get my , share!” gam Jones says hell and Macon are alike. The only difference is that there are some good people and a river in Macon, while hell has neither of these features. t Atlanta was not given a regiment of soldiers, but she got there on the Uni ted States prison contest. It will be the most complete prison in America and will cost $2,000,000. A man’s knowledge of topics of pub lic. interest should not be judged from the fact that he does not subscribe for a newspaper. He may take one (from liis neighbor) without subscribing for it. It would be in accordance with the eternal litne-s of things if tho Faiis I ..pci's would quit prating about '‘the hypocrisy of the United Stales” and give to the world the true inwardness, of the Dreyfus east'. One Turn Next. An exchange has figured it out that, in the natural order of things, the Democrats will win the next presiden tial election. The last seven presidential elections have been carried alternately, with the regularity of a four year clock, by each of the two political parties. The record is: 1872—Grant, Repuhlic.au. 187ti—Tilden, Democrat. 1880—Garfield, Republican. 188-I—Cleveland, Democrat. ' 1888—Harrison, Republican. 1892—Cleveland, Democrat. 18%—McKinley, Republican. According to tho rule the next presi dent should l>e a Democrat, and we may then add to the above: 1900—Bryan, Democrat. IhipresH Facilities For Doug Win. Waycmss, Ga., Nov. 19, 1898. Mr. A. C.
