The Peach Carnival, to be held In Macon, July 1—20, was projected as the best method of attracting the at tentlon of .the people of the North and West and of our own state to the great success achieved by the pioneers in a new Industry and to the peculiar advantages of this region tor the pros- ecutlon of that Industry. Tho Tele graph, wishing to aid In every possi ble way In the good work, will Issue a large extra edition about the time the carnival begins, In which an attempt will be made to give Its readers an adequate conception of the advantages possessed by middle and south Geor gia as a fruit growing region, by de scribing what has already been done by the energetic men who have al ready gone Into the business. The edition will be a very large one, and the paper In size and appearance will be worthy of the occasion and of Ma con. The opportunity for doing profitable advertising will bo tho best that has been offered by a Macon paper, and we hope the business tnen of our city will take advantage of If, and In doing so add to the success of tho carnival. A GLORIOUS FRUIT CROP. On another page it the Telegraph this mornlg will be found expressions of opinion from our cpnespoitdonts and the representative people of the fruit section of Georgia. These tell with unanlmnua voice of a magnificent outlook for tin fruit crop. They tell the story of tho dawn ing of another ern of prosperity for the state. Up to this year the fruit crop of Georgia has been looked upon as a secondary mutter and cotton has taken first place. Rut for some tlnto past tho farmers of this part of tip* country hhve boon turning their attention to fruit as a aun>!u» crop, the result being that they have fouud that through all these years a great In dustry has been neglected. Tit* sale of fruit this yeur will of course give so great a stimulus to fruit growing that hereafter Georgia will ho looked upon ns one of the most prolific and profita ble sections of the country In which to engage In the business. There net si be no fear of over- production. The demand for good fruit Is unlimited and will continue to Increase. It Is very rightly sold by some of our correspondents that the fruit In dustry In Georgia Is only In Its In fancy, Few of our people can realise the extent to which 'his fruit i rowing business has developed, and the Tele graph's reports this morning Mil be a surprise to the large majority of peo ple who think that only a few points will be benefited by the extraordinary yield this year. Aa a matter uf fact, there arc few, If any places, lh.it have failed to incroaee very largely the acreage planted In fruit. The number of peach tree* alone planted In thla Immediate section within the bust few years mounts up Into the million! and many thouaanda or cratea of the luacloua Georgia peach will ttnd a ready sale at good prices In the mar kets of the country aa the yield from these young trees. Where a crate of peaches goes out this year three or four crates will go out next year, and as thla "Infant Industry" grow! aa It la sure to do after this year with re doubled energy, so will the receipts Increase until the soil of Georgia In the raising of peaches alone will be a veritable gold mine. Oeorgla baa great advantages over other fruit growing states In many way! One advantage was llustrated thla year, when the frosts that de stroyed the peach and general fruit and vegetable crops lit other elates north of us, proved benedclal to the Oeorgla crop* Only a very tf.lld win ter and extremely sever* weather In the late spring can damage the Geor gia crop, and even this danger may be lessened aa a result of practical ex perience and Improved method! Another striking advantage that Oeorgla can boast as compared with Florida and California Is that the pos sibilities for good general farming are unlimited. We hare here the home of ootton. which gives promise thla year of being a profitable crop as a result of decreased acreage planted, and as the farmers of the country turn their attention to good Intensive 'farming and A diversity, o£ croRg the dancer fit over production of cotton will be les sened. The same land tHat gives us these millions of peach and pear trees and that produces the smaller fruits In great abundance has no superior for all kinds of cropping. While the young pesch trees are putting out their first luxuriant growth, the corn, the cotton and the potato or the grain grow rank between the rows, while ;he surplus acresge yields abundsntly every kind of product for the market or for the home. We have always said that Georgia was a great state, but at no time In her history has she felt this to be true so much as at present, nor have we ever been able so abundantly to prove to the outside world that Georgia is Indeed the Empire {State of the South. One striking feature of 'he corres pondence published In the Telegraph this morning Is the interest felt by every one In the Georgia Peach Car nival. No stronger guarantee of the success of the undertaking can be giv en than Is to be found In the evident Intention on all sides to take part In and to profit by tills valuable object lesson of the re sources of Georgia. Our own people who have thrown themselves Into this movement have worked with an unselfish desire to benefit the whole state and not direct ly for the agrandlsement of Macon. Macon knows that It Is her duty to take the lead In such undertakings. It Is simply a good proposition that she should do so, for what benefits the farmer and the 1 fruit grower benefits every small town and trading place— and In turn Macon derives her share of this general good. Rut the fruit grower will be first helped, then the smaller towns, and It Is with an eye to this that Macon does her duty In thus affording nil the people of tills state an opportunity to come together for miitaul benefit and information, while at the same time she provides the entertainment that It Is her part to provide as a courteous hostess. We hope In thin light nil the people will look upon the Georgia Peach Car nival. If all petty jealousies are laid aside and everyone Joins together on the broad platform of a desire to further the Interests of the whole state, tho object of the Peach Carnival will have been achieved. Again we assert that Georgia Is a great state, and we hope that the proof we produce this morning will be sufficient to awaken renewed Interest In the great possibilities of the Empire State of the South. with those men who do not call them- selves Democrats but thoroughly pym pathlze with his purposes. Mr. Bryan says he will rather die than vote for a Democratic presiden tial candidate, unless he stands on a free sliver platform, and Senator Till man says "Bah" when the name of the Democratic party Is mentioned Certainly the Populist and Republican sllverltes had every reason to listen patiently when these gentlemen or others sympathising with them boasted of their Democracy. But the real Democrats, who love the principles of their party and believe Its organiza tion to be the chief bulwark of const! tutlonal liberty In the United States have far less reason to be patient. They must soe In "leaders" who have determined to Impose their policy on the party or to desert It, or have for It a contempt they do not hesitate to expose, enemies In disguise. SOME REPORTS LEFT OUT. Owing to the great pressure on space the Telegraph has been forced to leave out of this Issue a number of reports on the peach crop from Im portant points In the state. These will, however, be printed In tomor row's Issue, thus Insuring In the two days a complete report. The Tele graph regrets the necessity of thus di viding the matter, but the late hour at which some of the communications were received made It unavoidable. AT GORDON INSTITUTE. Commencement Will Be Ushered In Today by a Sermon From Emory's President. THE WAR IN CUBA. The Cuban Insurgents operate In the Interior of the Island, In scattered bands, with little opportunity to ocm- munlcate with the outside valid or with each other. Naturally, therefore, tho “news" from Cuba is unreliable and scanty. The World hears only tho Spanish side of the story, ivmV It Is Spanish habit to conceal tho truth In matters of this kind. Nevertheless the 8pa»lsh government Is furnishing con vincing evidence that tho •rsurreetlon- nry movement Is not tho Insignificant affair that It was at first officially represented to be. and that I: Is In creasing In power Instead of decreas ing. A government as poor as that of Spain, already practi cally bankrupt and already levy ing the heaviest taxes that Its people can bear, does not willingly undertake the task of Ingrowing the Immense sum mentioned In yestjiday's dispatches as authorized by the cartes. Spanish public opinion Mil (or the moment sustain the government In any action which seems necessary to the suppression of) the Insurrectionary movement, but after a time, v hen the cost of tho war begins to appear In the shape uf now taxes, It Is probable that the government may find Itself weaker. Instead of stronger, because of Its victory over tho Cubans. That Spain will put down the insurrection, It she can get the necessary money and Is willing to spend It, cannot be doubted, but It may well be doubted whether the victory Is worth the win ning. The only reasonable hope the Insur rectionists have of winning lies In the ohsnee that thsy may escape destruc tion, while continuing their active op eration! until the financial resources of Spain are exhausted. Thsy cannot meet the Spanish armies on equal terms In the open field, and It ts not probable that they will try to do so. In fighting a mere guerilla war they lose the sympathy of the world nt Urge to a certain exetent, but It ta the only wav they can maintain for any length of time. THEIR DEMOCRACY. Some of the speakers at the Ute gathering of free eUverlteg at Mem phis had a good deal to say about the soundness of their Democracy and their faithfulness to th* Democratic party. Tha Impression which, thslr re marks on this line made upon their Populist and Republican brethren there present was not reported In the dispatch*! but was perhaps accu rately expressed by Senator Tillman when naked by a Telegraph reporter what effect the proceedings of the con vention would have on the Democratic party. "Bab!" was all the senator had to say. Apparently he did not think the effect on th* Democratic party_waa worth a moment's consideration. The question only excited his contempt. Senator Tillman, we believe, calls himself a Democrat, but he has long ago shown that hs cares nothing tor the party except aa he may use It In carrying out his purpose! Therefore he l* w»l Democrat enough to hurt him Barnesvllle, Ga., June 16.—Tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock Dr. Warren A. Candler of Emory Colege, Oxford, Ga.. will preach the commencement sermon of Gordon Institute In the school chapel. All who know the eminent divine and have heard him preach, are sat isfied that his discourse will be an extraordinary effort. Sunday ushers In the first day of tho commencement season and many visitors have arlved to participate In tho festivities. The Indications are that a very large crowd will be In at tendance throughout the time and ev erything points to a successful com mencement In every particular. Much work has been done preparatory to the event and Interesting programmes have been arraigned. 1 On a recent trip to Emory com mencement at Oxford, President Pound of Gordon Institute, was more than once met with the remark: "Your arc from the Beltbucklc of Georgia.” And the comparison was an apt one; for Gordon Institute certainly holds the same position among Georgia schools that Beltbuckle docs among the edu cational centres of Tennessee. It Is conceded to be the most thorough and progressive preparatory school lii Georgia; and a-comparison ofllts cata logue and curriculum shows that It Is noted for the same features Its Ten nessee contemporary so famous. As an evidence of the thoroughness of the scholarship, quite a large num ber of students failed to he promoted this year, owing to the rigid standard required. Every commencemnt In tho state revealed a goodly harvest of Gor don Institute's work In the form of honors to their graduates who had been prepared at this splendid Institu tion. Jt It Is a tradition that hen graduates never fall at other Institutions, and her diplomas Is ample guarantee of entrance to any of the higher Institu tions. It Is remarkable that the financial depression of the past year, which depleted the attendance of so many schools, had no perceptible effect on Gordon Insltutc; and already Presi dent Pound Is In correspondence with numbers of people all over Georgia and other states In reference to send ing their children here. The prospeots for the school are brighter than ever before. Miss May Kenedy of Ms con. arrived In tho city yesterday afternoon and Is tho guest of Mrs. Stafford on Thomnston street. She Is an unusually attractive and pretty young lady and thnny social courtesies will be extended her while In the city. Miss Cnllle Wnlker of Columbus, Is In the city visiting Miss May Lamb kin.

Griffin, June 16.—(Special.)—While It has been very hot at Camp Nortben today the staff ofilcers and several companies of the Third regiment have been out on the rifle range and the Conyers Volunteershave madethe very best score! of the regiment. There has been no Important move ment today, as every one has been busy, simply trying, to keep cool though strict military discipline has been observed, and those on guard duty have been melting while patrol- Ing their posts, and the thermometer Insisted on climbing toward the hun dred mark. The following order has been issued for tomorow: Pest headquarters, Camp Northen, Grlflln, Ga., June 16,1865—Guard de-, tall for tomorow, June 16th, 1895. Ofilcer of the day, Capt. A. J. Renkl. Sixth regiment. Officers of the guard, Lieut. W. N. Glenn, Third regiment; Lieut. J. A. Brown, Third regiment By command of Col. Jones. William A. Wilkins, Jr., Captain and post Adjutant. Sixth regiment, 22 privates; Third regiment, 3 sergeants, 3 corporals, 23 privates. By command of Col. Jones. G. R. Collin, Regimental sergeant major. One of the unhappy accidents of "Governor's Day" happened to James Nevln, Inspector of rifle practice, Third Oeorgla regiment. He was kicked by Col. Thomason's horse on the right leg and has been confined to his quar ters slnije In consequence. This ac cident Is sincerely regretted as he is one of the most popular ofilcers of the regiment. Capt. W. A. Patton, the handsome debonair commander of the Rome Light Guards, has arrived and taken charge of his company. Before bis ar rival Lieut. A. Y. S. Harper had charge and demonstrated the fact that ho was a fine tactician. In the Sixth regiment everything Is moving along smoothly and It is but a Just ribute to say that Col. W. E. Jones Is ably assisted by hlB efficient staff. Capt. and Adjt. Archibald Wil kins, Jr., of Waynesboro, Ga., of the Sixth regiment, has won laurels as a gentleman and a soldier, that will cause him long to be remembered by the Sixth regiment of Georgia Volun teers, and the people of Griffin. As a gentleman he belongs to one of the most prominent families of the state, and never for an Instant for gets the fact that he Is due a great deal to that prestige. He received his military training at the Univer sity of the State of Geor gia, and was lieutenant In the corps of cadets; this was further aug mented by his experience as a member of the Burke Light Infantry” and also as a sergeant In the Burke troop, Fifth Georgia Cavalry. With him as, ser geant major, G. R. Coffin of Augusta, Ga., of whom too high praise cannot be given. He was appointed sergeant major of the Sixth Georgia regiment the 27th of May last and has fulfilled the duties most acceptably. He grad uated from the South' Carolina Mili tary Academy In Charleston, S. C., In the class of 1892, with rank of cap tain In Company C., having held posi tion of first corporal of Company C., sergonat major and adjutant of the corps of cadets. About two months ago he was admitted to the bar of Richmond county and has a most brilliant career before him. The companies will begin moving out Monday to make room for the regi ments that are coming next tour. Clever Jim Farnum has been up mak ing arrangements to see that they don't suffer from thirst.
