OPINION FROM AN OUTSIDER 510 CILERY ST. ’ "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. AMERICAN LEGION OF HONOR The Annual Session This Year One of the Most Satisfactory Ever Held.
