li luifl Ikvu suggestal, aud the Idea

Tth* legislative cand’.dnitoH are all
eager to have the date set m> that they
will know how to sK their triggers,
and It Is Ixirdly probable that they will
get fairly duwu to business until then.
After the date «s fixed U Is highly prob

OPINION FROM

’ "FENCE OR NO FENCE."
A Subscriber Suggests That the Fence
Around the Monument Be Removed.
To the Editor of the Telegraph: I was
plsafled to see In your Issue of this
morning thait you agn1n*ralBe the ques
tion of "fence. or no fence/' While so
many Improvements are being made I
would be delighted to see that iron rail
ing removed from Its present position
around the base of the Confederate
monument No man In Macon holds
more sacred this grand memorial, raised
to (those who "nobly lighting fell." No
man would more quickly resent any des
ecration of that, shaft or Its surround
ings. I would have it more beautiful
still, and for this reason I want to see
that fence removed. It rubs the monu
ment of its symetry and takes from its
graceful outlines a part of its perfec
tion. There is no necessity for the
fence. A neat atone coping ten feet frbm
the base with well well kept grass with
in, would give the monument un addi
tional artistic perfection of outline and
} cannot think that the removal of the
fence can be considered In any woy a
desecration.
Flowers around' the base of the monu
ment carefully fended by the ladles of
the memorial aasoclatlbn would please
the eye more than the grass that now
grows long within the railing. .1 hope
you will obtain the consent of the la
dles of the association to have that
change made at once.

Tho hospital has been a surety over
since tho citizens In mass meeting
raised uo their voices In unity and
culled for such an Institution In their
city; but row It in doubly sure.
The hospital association has notified
Mr. M. P. Callaway of their acceptance
the 17,000 option on the site lately nego
tiated for. and tho watch word must
now bo "unity."
If everybody who Jodned In the in
dorsement of this public spirited move
ment ut Its lnctpioncy last winter, will
come uu with their money sis they prom
ised iu do, vhe coming autumn will find
a hospital in Macon. And they will do
tills. There Is Ju»t as much enthusiasm
over tho subject now as there has ever
been—In fact, the spirit of the effort
has taken on greater vigor now that
the consununatfo’a of tho people’s hopes
draws near. A number of gentlemen
subscribed large aums, which have not
been called for yet, becuuse the vexed
tnatier of securing wile fur the hospital
has demanded the attention of tho asso
ciation. It is true that $3,600 was in
vested In the site uiAm Coleman's Hill.
This place seemed the only avatlablo
site at that time. But the association
wus not long in finding out that it would
not do for moro t'han oup reason. It Is
conceded by everybody thnt they acted
advisedly when they abandoned this lo
cation and settled upon the Callaway
residence.
So tho situation now Is Just what the
hospital people have looked forward to
all along, and tho last one of them is
enthuelnstdo In the hope of realising at
no far orr dato, upon their long cl»er- v
lahed calculation. Several of thorn wore
in a group yesterday 'talking about tho
present shape that things have taken
and they said there Is absolutely no
danger of their plans fulling throiurii
now. They expressed every confidence
that those who subscribed will pay up
when colled on. and this call will be
made within tho next few days.
Of private subscriptions there 1s al
ready promised them something over
$1,000. ThlB, of course, is exclusive of
the $.1,600 Invested In tile bid site on
Coleman's Hill. One of the officers of
the association said a day or*two ago
that they anticipated no difficulty in
realising upon the sale of this property
the price paid fbr it, though they will
be welt satisfied not to lose on it. All
the funds now In stoht, therefore,
amount to over $5,000. and when tho pub
lic appreciates that there Is lacking only
$2,000 or $3,000 to pxy for tho site, a w *11
equipped hburo, etc.. It Is not feared
that the shortage will come nard.

Mr. H. O. Davlilsonl wijiglirj nnd
general manager of the Montgomery
Uxpoxiliuu Company, wus in the city
ycMtistluy In conference with the olh-
dala of the Mnum Exposition Com
pany.
The object of Mr. Davidson's visit
tvos to arrange for a combination of
association* in the grand Smitliprn cir
cuit, under which the hast urtraetkmu
can ho sU.-un;d for daeon, Rlehhiohd,
Va., aud Mouugoinery, Ala., anil also
to organise for the protection of those
dries lu the South where fairs are to
be held.
Mr. Davidson was taken la charge
by ilayor Home and Secretary Ken.
uedy, wiio, representing the hostrd of
dlrecteis of Uio Dixie Intcrsuuo Fair,
oniei'Uiiued the visaing olUc.nl during
his visit
After a coafereuca held at headiptar-
ters in tlie moral tig, Mr. Davidson suid
that the outlook for the Macon fair Is
well iu advance af what might liave
been expected, consridcring everything.
“I belteve 'Halt Macon Is going to
have the host expajltiou ever given
here,” said Mr. Davidson yesterday to
a Telegraph reponer. “You have every
udvontage, and as this Is to he Geor
gia's only exposition this year nnd
other fairs in other states do not eon-
Diet, your attcmitonce should he very
targe Indeed.
"My experience wHi several expo
sitions in Montgomery U sufficient to
prove to mo that up to tho present
your work 1n preparation has lx*cn
carefully nnd thoroughly done.
Macon has tho finest,. exposition
grounds 1 have yet seen, and the plans
for your buildings us cxpki.ned to me
arc perfect In every detail.
"X am not at liberty lo say what at
tractions havo been hooked up to this
time, but you can assure the renders
of the Telegraph ttiat we will liave the
best list of attractions at the fairs in
the Southern circuit this year that
have ever been brought South. There
Will not be anything on tho stereo
typed list of exposition attractions,
Everything will t>e tlrst-class, and tho
side utneaetions nromtse to be luirac-
ulariy good and Interesting.
‘I am charmed with Macon,” said
Mr. Davidson in conclusion, “aud your
people sliould bo very pruud of the
outlook for your great Dixie Interstate
Fair. You can count on .Montgomery
to render you every assistance m her
power.”
Judge J. L. Hardeman and Hon,
Washington Dessau arc expeotcil to re

make a import of their work while

tors lute TV.r. They have r.veomplishcd
great things, nnd their report will glvo

Mr. Lee Ellis, who has charge of
the work on the grounds nnd buildings
at Central City Park, is enthusiastic
over his work.
“You qiu Just unnouuce without four
of conuvfdictlou licit the groumis nud
buildings will bo in grant shape when
the fair opens and tuat exhibitors will
timl every comfort and every accom
moihvblon. 1’hc Macon buildings will
be second to none In the Scum and
all Georglh will have cause to he
proud of Central Oily Park. We j\ro
Just going to show that we can give
as good an exposition for Georgia in
Macon ns any other pile*; In fact, l
believe li will be a little better than
any tiling Up to date.
DR. A. B. CAMPBELL.
He Is Doing an Excellent Work at Tatt-
nail Square Baptist Church.
Those who have had the pleasure of
visiting Dr. Campbell's church on Tatt
nall Square pronounce his sermons as
strong anti eloquent. He Is considered
by those who have heard him one of
the ablest ministers of any denomlnn
than in Georgia.
Ill* audience is rapidly increasing
and U l» predicted . that his church,
which 1* closely connected with the Unl-
versity. will, at an early day, take It*
place as about th? moat important Bap
tist church In Georgia.
His discourse on lust Sunday' morn-
lug has been much commented on. It
Is said to liave been one ot the most
logical,.convincing and eloquent deliv-
crcd In the city In a long while. Great
things are predicted for Baptists In Ma-
con b/ the eurnostnes.-: and eloquence of
this distinguished divine. ,
The members uf the Tattnall church
and visitor* are highly pleased: they
boast of their cool breezes ami delight
ful surroundings during the tint sum-
men months ns well as of the great
work their honored pastor Is doing
among them.
HOWS THIS?
