That wo arc 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- cty Depeu. himself a protectionist, once a euuilidiite for the Republican nomina tion for president and a big mutt gener ally, for liisliutre, says Hint "with tlio certainty of currency unit tnrlir tcfrisln* tlou, wo tire ript! for n long period of prosperity In Imsliiess, good wages and full employwcut for labor."

On the contrary, ho sees ns tbo result of tnrllT settlement, lit splto of u big reduction In duties, good wages and full employ moot.

The country Is not likely to take Gov ernor 'McKinley's prophecies of dlsas. for seriously, however. It umleratsiiila very well that he la not only a mau on u hobby but a politician with a "cause,” who must aiitk Into luslgnlfloauee If that cause la rorgottcu or defeated. 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.

GALLS FOR DENIAL. Sells Brothers Must Say II They Have Raised .Prices South.

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, with the tonly 60 cents show exhibiting In the South at o half dollar, will be In Macon on Monday, October 8. SELF-CONFESSED FIEND. Highest of all in Leavening Power.—Latest V. S.
