Yesterday tho Telegraph uddreiwd
the following note to each of tho can
didates for tho legislature:
August 0, 1KM.
Dear Sir; During the laat few days
there have been rumors current on the
streets that soma of the candidates for
the legislature, to be voted lor In the
primary Thursday, entertain certain views
in regard to the new charter of Macon
Before thebe rumors became current the
Talcgrsph regarded the ruvtest ns a purdy
personal oae between the gentlemen soak
thg teglstattvo honors; but If the charter
Is to be an Issue the cumralgn loses that
character, and we think tho people ought
to know for whnt as well as foe whom
they ary voting. In order that they may
bo enabled to do eo, the Telegraph respect,
fully oaks that you reply, In writing to
the following questions:
Is your attitude toward the new charter
friendly or hostile?
Assuming that certain amendments are
lice weary fo correct defects In the char,
ter, do you think these amendments should
have the elfont or restricting tho city
council ns far ss poratbl) to legislative
functions, or do you think that the court
ell should not only make tho city lawn
but also shore the duty and responsibility
of administering them? ,
The charter as It now reads give ou
tlmt-lty for the Improvement of streets,
etc.yto both the city council and the hoard
of pdtillc works. In whut manner do you
think this conflict of nuUturily should ba
settled?
Will you Indicate the scope of the
amendments you will favor. If any?
Tl|e charter dleriualltlee certain holders
of cHy offices as candidates for the name
or other etty offices during a certain po.
rlod. Will you offer, favor or vote for an
amendment removing this dlsquultflra-
that?
The Telegraph hopes that you will ttnd
tlino to lUistver these questions, propound
ed purely In the public Interest to each
of the candidate* during tills afternoon
or evening, as It proposes to print In to
morrow's Issue Ilia result of Its Inquiries
Most respectfully,
Tho Macon Telegraph.

It did not occur to the Telegraph nt
tho time tlte note wits written that
either of the gentlemen could possibly
hare any objection, to stating Ills po-
slthm on this or any other public qtu-s

It seems tlmt the gentlemen entertain
flttolher 'Iiid different view of their re-
lntlons to the people whom they see
to represent. They prefer to bo olodetl
without having disclosed what the

A LITTLE HISTORY.
The Atlanta Constitution says that
the parity that the people want la ''the
parity of prices and prosperity,’’ which
saying Is nonsense. It also says that
Utta “retmint lie ohtalhed by the aboil

true. Any law that, Ike the one pro-

contemporary probably meats, how-

Is deurooetlsul, but nobody will take
that seriously. Everybody knows that
the silver half of the currency is now
