about to enter upon nueh a pcrind of
prosperity aecttia so probaililc that men
on every hand—men whose Judgment is
worth ttoutoiltlug—arc freely prophesy-
lug that It Is about to begin. Dr. Gkattu-

a euuilidiite for the Republican nomina

ally, for liisliutre, says Hint "with tlio

very well that he la not only a mau on

THbTsI’GAR PLANTEitS.
During the laat three years tho gov
ernment of the United States has imld
to sugar producers the sum of £17,000,-
.000. Not a single dollar of this vast
sum was earned. All of It was u grat
uity, gtveu to a few men and taken
from the masse* of the people. There
was no long division hi tho distribu
tion of this money. 81 agio Individuals
got aa much a* $100,000, if wo remem
ber aright. It wouM seem that these
Individuals, so generously treated by
the government, given many million*
of dollats which did not belong to them,
which they had done nothing to earn,
would be grateful would bo contented
with what they hare rveehred. But
they are not. The possibility that the
Democratic party may cease to tax
other people for their licuem ha* raised
than In atm*. They will fight, not for
the preservation of their liberty, not
for their rights, hut for tho preservation
of the pauper's privilege eonferreif upon
them by the Republican party, of living
on the earnings of other people. And
because they have come to the deter
mination to tight tor the preservation
of tb!* sort of a privilege, the Republi
can newspapers of the North ure snout-
lug that the solid South is broken. Rut
they ore very, pinch mistaken, .flit!
Smith Is not solid in defense of any
special privilege or of anybody'! right
to tax other people. It stands solid for
Jtue.ce, fur equal rlgbu, for federal
laws that will discriminate ngulost no
body, in favor of nobody. It asks uo
favors for Itself and demands only that
favors be not granted to other people
und other sections nt its expense. It
has a rigid to make such a demand <>t
ti govermm-nt constituted to do Justice
to all and grant special favors to tioiie.
In (be nature of tilings, special favors
cannot be granted to some without do
ing Injustice to other*.
The Louisiana planters, In revolting
against tlio Democratic party, merely
proclaim that In politics they arc for
sale to the highest Didder. They stand
on exactly the same plane us the poor
ragged devd who loafs about the polls
on election days, waiting till .a ticket
and a dollar are pushed into bis linuil
at the same time. .Morally, they etaud
with him, except that they lure not
the excuse of poverty und waut of In-
telligcuce. They illtler from liiir only
in Iliat, rich and more intelligent, they
require u larger bribe. That they make
this proclamation of their mercenary
motives uselessly Is recognized even by
their - best friends, as showu by the fol
low,ng extract from the New Orleans
Picayune:
U??
"Th* Picayune candidly Relieves that
there will never be another bounty voted
on any American product. Never was
there a more unpopular measure with the
meat** of the American people than won
the giving of a government bounty to the
sugar-maker* of Louisiana. It was con.
trary to all former usjge, and It created
unlverial dtasatlslaction among aha isri-
culturlats of every part of the country
Although It won dlreotly bent-tidal to the
entire state of -Louisiana, even the Louis
iana cotton plnntere protested against it,
and tn every other state the farmers
dononunced It as a piece of un-Amorlcun
favoritism. Without doubt, the enactment
of the sugar bounty by the Republicans
had an Immense Influence In securing the
defeat of the Republican party, which
wsa utterly routed and overwhelmed with
dlaaater at the very flrat election succeed
ing the bounty congress."
JUDGE HINES’ REFUSAL.
Oue day lust week Mr. Willson's pa
per complained somewhat bitterly that
Mr. Atkinson Imd not challenged Judge
lllm-.i to a Joint debate, us he bud
promised to do before the nomination.
As It happened, thnt very day Mr. At
kinson wrote his ehnUt-ro’,", and In tho
succeeding issue of Ills paper Mr. Wat
son felt called upon to prepare
the way for a declination from Judge
lllnes. The declination came promptly.
Judge Ultics was not In Atlanta at Uie
time, but OIr. Watson apparently felt
certain of wbnt Judge Hines would do.
Perhaps he had full warrant for finding
certain.
We ure not nt all certain thnt the pub
lic bad much to gain from Joint debates.
We have no doubt that Judgo Hines
would have come out of thoso debates
n humiliated man, having shown him
self unable to meet the Democratic can
didate on the stump. But that would
hnvo been merely a personal misfor
tune, without any compensating gain,
so far as we see, to tho people. Tho
Populist campaign t* a failure anyway,
and does not need humiliation of Jmlgo
Hlnea to prove It a failure. So far as
we see, Mr. Watson's paper Is the chief
loser by this episode. Tho hollowness
of Its brag and bluster are exposed.
Unvlug put up Rs lists und called in a
loud voice for its enemy to come on,
It put* thorn down again nml begins to
give excuses when that enemy appears.
TWO GREAT DEMOCRATS.
It will be aeon by our nows columns
Unit both Secretary Smith and Speaker
Crisp liavo consented to speak In Mn-
c«a during tho next teat d:\ys-Mr.
Smith next Saturday evening, and Mr.
Crisp ou the evvnlug of Thursday, tho
27th.
It hns been many years since It hap
pened thnt the same state furnished
both the speaker of the house nml a
member of tho cabinet, and this cir
cumstance will add to the interest felt
In these two meetings Both of the
gentlemen are personally admired In
tills community, ami both are recog
nised nt among the great lenders of tho
party. The Democracy of Ulbb will
turu out on masse to near them.
The Macon Evening Netva yestenhy
passed Into tho eontrol of a now com
pany, and showed a very great change
for tho better, Mr. Robert L. McKern
ney, the business manager, and Mr. T.
W. Doyle**, the city editor, are well
and favorably known iu Macon. Mr.
Fred T. I.oftln, the editor, is a news
paper man of wide experience nml good
reputation, nml will no doubt soon be
a* favorably known as hit colleagues.
There Is need for a good afternoon pa
per in Mnoon, and the Evening Newt,
.under its new management, promises
to fully supply it
CARD FROM Mil. W. A. POE.
To the SdMor of «»• Telegraph; I
have delayed answering your o.-mmenl*
«k -the thne you published my note to
Mr. Bloons. prevalent of the Young
Men's Democratic Club, and the much
talked of anonymous letter t received
on the list of Augur: past. I have no
cumplahr. to make of your editorial
criticism*. TYtey were fdr and legiti

mo,-; credulous to toefleut, after read
ing this teeter, that tn Ul ttt* length

found u Democrat who t* toot enough
to -have written that letter. As you say*.
"Of course K Is possible that there u
such a one. but tut -at all probable."
Mr. Editor. experience teaches us
that we sometimes find fool* who Save

and aasochKes into thtnktog of and ad
vertising them as men full of wisdom.
When. Vo, the -xsblnlne opportunity l«
offered to them and they exhibit the
attributes of that long-eared animal.
Why the Democrats .-f-ioukt not have a
few of ohts aort wkhln their party's
ranks, I don't think can be auocesrfully
disproved.
You further say. -Mr. Editor, tho* "all
the -probabilities are tbut some thor
ough-going Populist. sr-lth Nme i.Ttelli-

Mr. Poe with thts bit of oichpalgn m-a-

k was. It was the moat Ignominious

GALLS FOR DENIAL.
Sells Brothers Must Say II They Have
Raised .Prices South.
Ths Baraum & Bailey ahow charges
that Bella Brothers have been exhibit
ing all the r \iuan at 25 cento adm.ssiun
until theY c...ne,toVath.when they raised
prices to'50 cents, asalng the Southern
public Just double the sum they had
previously valued their show at.
What will Sells 'Brothers say in reply
to this attack? They cannot deny the
truth of the statement, tor It Is truei
The Louisville papers clrcnlae _ all
through the South and they afford nil
the evidence needed In the case. What
Waa worth only 23 cents In Louisville Is
not worth more In Macon. But If they
cannot deny the change nothing Is left
but to evade the Issue, play tho baby
act and cry oui for the protection of the
very people they are trying to "Jo”
with their raised prices. Some such plea
Is to be expected. Nothing else can be
done.
In an advertisement published in an
other column Barnum & Bailey call on
the Sells Brothers to make denial If
they can. and today the "greatest ohew
on earth” (the one to which the title
belongs) will have a force of men here
to circulate bills more widely advertis
ing the Imposition. Barnum & Bailey,
