We are not often able to acre* with the Atlanta Constltutlonln its opinions blit wa do oot hesitate to commend so •ntich of an editorial, in Us Issue of yesterday, as follows: The newspapers of Maoon ere making a great deal of noise about railroad consolidation—„nv complaining that the city hen been "botllod up" by one sys tem, and the olher arguing to the con- drary. In the lively agitation which has characterised the dleeutalnn of thn question, the city of Macon la so far the only sufferer; and If the parlies to the controversy could be Induced to carry their contention before a irlbunnl of final settlement rather than by tight- tng the battle through the columns of the newspapers, tt would be much, bet ter for all concerned. The question Involved being a legal and not a legislative one. It would aoem tbat the place to settle It would t» In the courts. It Is claimed on the one aide that one company haa absorbed tho several lines entering Macon, and that such consolidation ta contrary to law. The question Is. therefore, strictly one for judicial determination. The railroads have either violated the law— or they have not. If they have, the courts will so decide; and If, on the other hand, after Judicial Investigation, It ta found that tho situation In which the railroads entering Macon And themselves Is not violative of the law, decision *wlll be rendered accordingly. Bat tbe only way to reach direct set tlement of the question Is through the courts, and the sooner a Anal decision Is rendsrsd the better It will be for the people end the railroads. If. ten years ego, appeal had been made to tbe courts Instead of to the legislature, the question would have been disposed of before this; but one teal stature after another ha* waited time and money In endeavoring to solve a problem which was no part of tho work of the teglalature, and which be longed properly to the courts. The sort of agitation now going on In Macon is calculated to do more harm than good. It tends to excite urn reasonable prejudice against corpora- lions that have become to be absolutely essential to the commercial existence of the communities which they reach. To herrass railroad or other corpora tion* by ine»n* ot peevish legislation, or to Invent what might be termed retaliatory scheme* of reprisal, It ►imply to hurt and cripple the vast public tntereeta. communal and Indi vidual. that are bound up In these tinea. We mean, cf course, that ih# relations which the railroad* be*r to the people nnd th» people to the railroads are too vast and too far-renchlng to bo oettled or disposed of by measures tbat ere the result of iegialatloa baaed M blind prejudice. The Telegraph haa participated In the discussion only by way of protest against the folly or It. Unquestionably tho right course to pursue, for any party who has a grievance. Is to seek tho courts and other tribunals which have jurisdiction under the law. The Telegraph haa instated that this ta the only way to remedy any trouble that may exist, but It ha* been unable to discover that the parties engaged in the agitation have any proof of non-com ptlance with the law by the railroad*. Aa the Constitution says, "the sort ol agllatlon now going on In Macon la calculated to do more harm than good and especially to Macon. The Tele graph welcome* any aid it may be vouchsafed from any quarter In It* cf fort to allay the spirit of hostility to corporations. OcoiglA haa been moat hcrtously hurt, not only by “peevlah legislation," but also by the blather skites. bushwhackers and barrators who foment litigation against railroad and other corporate enterprises for the mere purpose of making fees. The Con stitution's suggestions are timely and directly In lino with thoss we have made. The law provides remedies for til wrongs. It Is the Anarchist, the de structive. the eand-lottcr who seeks to InAime public prejudice, to tear up and to destroy, to array claaa against class, to exclts the poor against the rich and to promote the mobocracy tn order tbat he may thrive In the ton- fusion. The right to do tu tint si tn Georgia has already been too much curtailed, and we need legislation tho way et repeal, and mure court de- clalous conserving the right ot prop erty. Satinets men need help and not hindrance. Tbe Atlanta Constitution, for once. Is pretty nearly right, and tt I- regrettable that It has not always talked in this wholesome strain. It la a timely rebuke to the malcontents and rulechlcf-mskers. not only of Macon, but of other communities In Georgia- “Tho Minority Rebuked," Under this caption the Memphis Commercial-Appeal says: What the Hon. llrnton McMIllln has been longing for, and what the Hon. David A. De Amtond haa been long ing tor. haa come to pass, and the Hat ley and antl-Batley forcea have lined up and concluded a trial ot strength. The Insurgents have been liberal In their clalnta that tbe Democrat* In congress did not approve of Mr. Hat- Icy'* leadership, and would turn hint down the Aret opportunity th*r pre sented Itself. We were told that only a few member* were following Bailey, and that they were doing this for self ish purposes, with a view to recuring eligible committee appointments through Mr. Bailey's tmluence. but that tbe great body ot the Democratic congressmen were reedy to reptadlate Bailey, and would take the tret oppor tunity of doing so. Kvery effort was mad* to reach a teat vote, and tbe re calcitrant dissident* threatened hold ing another caucus for the purpose of ousting tbe young Texan leader. But. strange to relate, when the vote was counted Bailer eras sustained nnd tbe dlaaldenu were defeated. Tho majori ty that put Bailey forth aa a leader, and who agreed uuh Mm In hla poli cies. came to his rescue when the test . vote *u hid. an t the vaunted forcca ot tho opposition were repudiated. The contest v.us a cl»,ec „l. C, tnd Ballej e majority could not have been smaller, liut It was a vindication, neverthele-a, ami a surprising vindication, consider ing the clslms made by hie enemies. The be whiskered Populist* and the scarcely le*s windy fualonlet* Joined the Insubordinate minority of the Dem ocrat* to a men, being naturally anx ious to see the rent In the party gar ment as wide as possible. If they can secure a permanent split in the Dem ocratic ranks, of coArae they will *h- ttorb that side which Is nearest to their way of thinking. Mr. Halley's re buke wa* well delivered and equally well merited. The pitiable spectacle that Is presented to the country-on ac count of personal ambitions and un worthy Jealousies, and carrying on a war among themselves, should be re moved. If congressmen cannot re spect party usages and political prece dents and get together in a solid ar ray. they need not expect the Democ racy to follow them into tho disorder they are breeding. The i>etty ambi tion* and feverish' envy of would-be leader* must not be permitted to come In and disorganize the party. It la hoped. *nd very earnestly hoped, that the turbulent minority of the Demo crat! In congress will now see tbe error of their way and cease further bicker ings. What la said In the foregoing Is true enough, but the fact that "Baltey'a majority could not have been smaller" Is poor encouragement for those who want to see a compact minority par ty standing In the fere battling for principle as they understand It That tho party in the house, and In the sen ate as welt, ts torn Into vrarrlqg fac tions is painfully evident The whole troublo ts traceable to tbe Arst great crime committed against tho party of Jefferson at Chicago last year. The seed* of discord were sown there. Allens were permitted, by loose and e.oropromlslng dickers tn the party pri maries, to como in and march away with the party banners. They cast lots for the sub-banners, and each tittle faction got one, and hinging it to the hreese marched ■ away, on Its own hook. Hut they cared not for the prin ciples for whloh tho party ensigns stood, and they cast them aside. They wanted votes and not principles—men, not measures. The men, it was bc- Jlved, would follow the stolen banners tike dumlf driven cattle, and many did, but not enough to suit their purposes. Several of these sub-standard bear ers have turned up tn congress, and each Is trying to form tho line behind himself, and each suspects and as saults tho other. 8o we have It. Failure of tho Treaty. It 1* ju«t as well tbat «he arbitration treaty failed of ntlAoatlon by the United States senate. It bad been so amended and emasculated that If it had been sent to Great Britain it would have probably been rejected tiy that govern ment. -w* are spared that humiliation. Thu* doe* a treat project, worthy ot Christian civilization, come 4o naught. It was estopped by a baud of political pettifogger* who have Utile In common wlrti tho true aspiration* of the Ameri can people. All the world deplores the failure of the measure which wa* to make so much for humanity and which wa* -to enhance the preeliga of tho Amer ican gorermnent a* the foremost among tbe right-feeding powers of the earth. But tho United Staten senate (a not' what it was. Swaattbucklca and tide- waiter*. chiriaUuts and reactionists Bit many of the aeata that were once graced by men of noble mind* and noble pur poses^ . They awe. In great' measures merely opportunities to parade tbrir pet ty blgotrir*. being wholly Incapable of meeliug tbe rcqiftremcat* of a high end catholic statesmanship. Tbe d ditto over the treaty and most ol the amend ment* proposed and adopted plainly evi denced the degeneracy of the eenato and revealed to tt* people tbat they have bestowed the senatorial mantle upon too many am ail-beer politician*. It will be many a long day before tho United State* wlU l>e asked to cater Into tn arbitration treaty with any other great power. The eenato may now pro ceed to pau resolutions In favor of the policy, hut such resolution* will only bo regarded with derision by other nations. The reopto of America have every can#* to feel chagrined that their own senate baa fulled to maintain the standard of the national purpose. Specie* of Communism. * 1 Tire Covington Enterprise, ono of oux levelheaded Georgia exchanges, Indulges in the following sensible remarks: Uvery now and then a petition And* it* way to the rallcid counMoner* ask ing a reduction of freight rote* on Arst one artkde and then w another. The latent petition of rhit kind act* for a wholesale horlznnl-al reduction of 33 1-3 per cut of freight rate* on ell tbe nit ron 1* ,< Hie suite, or course such a sweeping redaction would mean bank ruptcy amt ruin to all tbe railroad*, and wilt not ho made. Jn speaking of this petition the Allmny Herald said that the proposition evidently comm front an ex treme clement which la Incapable of rec- ognUtlog the fact that railroads have any right*. These extreml*)* sewn to over look the fact tbat railroad* are property and tbat they are entitled to property right* under the laws of the state. It is « sperlet ot communism which would. In the last analysis of he tendency, pull down til great enterprises, both corpor ate and pertoaaf, to the common herd level. The,Enterprise repeats what It baa said before, tbat right end justice de- ntanda that the railroad* be allowed to make at least a reasonable profit on rite money Invested. lAgielatton and peti tion* to tower freight and peaeenger rate* have frightened many people from In vesting a dollar in ratlroea enterprtpre, wbea. if given a fair chance,* no safer 4n- w.. intent could be made than owning railroad boo.)* and murk*. There haa been enough restriction*. regulations and fr ■ ghi reduction* on the railroads In this -teikand they outfit to he let alone for a pP. and given an opportunity to make o*Vtd a small profit on the large amount -J money Invested in thee* ben eficial end necessary enterprise*. These word* are sensible and true. It may be *a!4 further, it Is time tbe tune arts made, so that the people who have nuncy In raHroed atoekn and bond* and those who are employed by them should know where they stand. If these properties, these tuean* of support, ere to be wrecked it -Is time they knew it end were preparing for the crarh. The populist* htvfi been ridiculed for adrocatlng government ownership ft railroad*. but their policy i* more honest than the i<an* of the wrecker*.

Thn peace treaty wa* really killed In the committee room several weeks ago. The senate on Wednesday only wrote the epltatfi. It was a bloody piece of business.

' Home Folks and Visitors, Mr. E. A. Green, a well-known citi zen and merchant of Monti cello. Is In the city. He came to Macon on busi ness and returned home yesterday morning. "Business la quiet tn our town." he remarked, "but alt the mer chants seem to be doing fairly well. This la always a dull season with bus iness men, and I don't think our peo ple have much to complain of." The people of Macon were delighted to see the smiting face ot Mr. John Eads on tbe streets yesterday. He gave tbe city a .pop call and went to Indian Spring* In the afternoon. He will sojourn there for a while, with the hone of Improving hi* health. Sir. Eads ha* not returned to Macon to live, aa has been stated. Since going out of h trainee* tn Atlanta he has been rustl- oatitig, wo to apeak, and hla plana for the future will douhtleeu not be for mulated until fait. He etlll retains his business interest* In Macon, however, and ot oourse looks upon this city a* hla home. Speaking of himself he slid: "I don't know what my future connec tions may be. I regard thl* as a mighty good tlms to watch for developments. One can easily vnakc a business venture now and regret It afterwards. I no- rioe there ere more vacant stores on Whitehall street than were erer before known In the history of Atlanta. There •ere burinee* bouse* for rent on that thoroughfare which could not have been secured two peers ago for love "I *m glad that Macon continue* to hold her own so well.

Mr. Joe Waxotbauro, senior member of «b» Arm of Waxelbaum & Oo>, ta home again, after two month* absence In New York, where he purchased fall and winter goods for the big wholesale establishment he represents. Mr. Wax- elbauen speaks wry hopefully of trade conditions and looks for the advent ot tatter times (a the near future.

Nothing definite can be learned in the newspaper offices, but tbe gossips around the Kimball and the Aragon talk freely about he matter. According to these entertaining news mediums, the equipment for Capt. Howell's new venture haa already been purchased,'and developments may be expected any day. Where will the captain get his staff? There will be no trouble on that score. ■When he call* tor workers nearly every man In the big Constitution building will rush to his support. It remain* to be seen whether these rumor* will materialize or not. Atlanta wants a new custom house, and Livingston will do hla best to get It tor her. The etateaman from Newton knows very well that hla opponents are pre paring to make It hot for him next year, and be wiu strain every nerve to win favor with the Fulton county Demo crats. He recognizes the fact that Ful ton la a danger centre, a* la also the county of Rockdale. Nowhere In the district la there more bitter opposition to him than exist* among the Rock dale voter*. Col. Bill Peek Uvea tn that county, and he will fight him to (he very last. The leading prfacbera, law yer* and merchant* of Conyers have been against him tor twenty-five years, and they will vote tor anybody to de feat him. , Ot course ths Atlanta politicians are in touch with their friend* In Rockdale, andl they arc at work at this early day to get the two counties together. The friends of Mr. Clark Howetl In tended at the proper time to bring him forward, but It ts now generally admit ted tbat It will be wiser for him to watt. Mr. Thomas R. R. Cobb Is vigorous ly denying his rumored congressional candidacy, but some of hla Intimates have mapped out a programme tor him. They eay. that Tom will be hand! capped by no oM political antagonisms. Ho 1* bright, handsome, enthusiastic and eloquent. Then he Is atf eclectic In politics. He le an Independent, with a platform composed of Democratic. Re publican and Populist planks. With his ardor and dash, this young man would capture all the women nnd get Into the good graces of the masses at once. Hla candidacy, however, depends up on a contingency. He will be tn the race if Livingston gets tbe nomination, but If the Democrats nominate a stronger man he will watt. Gome of the newspapers up thl* way are saying pleasant things about the prospective gubernatorial condldate* from the lower part of the state. All this ts meaningless poppycock. North Georgia want* everything In sight, and when the time domes she will clamor tor the governorship. Will McKinley zeleot one city In a Southern Democratic state and give It a couple of foreign mlestona, several im portant consulship* and other tempt ing plum*? Some people here think that Atlanta will be thus favored, but they will find themselves mistaken. There are hundreds of able men In other Southern cities who have ren dered valuable aid to Mr. McKinley, and I they will hardly be ignored to ad vance the interests of some of the new converts here. A Constitution man ts figuring on tho cost of a plant to furnish country weeklies with patent insides and out sides. especially designed to meet the wants of the Southern reading public. "Would you leave the Constitution?” I asked him. He winked an eye and then grew very serious. , "Major," said he. almost in a whis per. ‘‘things are not going to suit me. The truth ts. we fellows, over there are looking out for ourselves. We have to do tt. The corporation we work for cores nothing tor fidelity, ability and tang service. He Is simply a machine. and .lt grinds fine and cuts close. I am getting ready to tote my own skil let" The Constitution's headlines and lo cal articles tor two months past have made It appear that Vcat wa* in a very deep hole, but he has never been In any real danger, and the beat men on the board of health have stood by him from the that. There ta not a better health official in tho state than Veal. How do tbe inmates of numerous sanitariums, hospitals and Infirmaries pass their time? I don't know anything about It, but It la suggested tbat they furnish the Constitution with some ot tta remark able editorials at the very reasonable rate of one dollar a column. Lucius Perry Hills Is an Atlantlan who Is winning fame on the platform. Recently, at Ann Arbor, he recited to an audience of 2.(40. In Washington, Hartford and other cities he haa been very successful. He la a poet and dialect writer of first-class talent and is pushing hts way to the front Hills 1a a wit. too. When a lady re marked the other day that she wanted an epitaph In two or three words with aome sense In them, Hilts told her about a man named Knight who died, and bis friends Inscribed on hla tomb stone the appropriate tribute. "Good Knight!" "Ha. ha!” laughed Wallace Rhodes of the postofflce; "that's a good one. but It would hardly do for me. "Good Rhodes' wouldn't be aa catchy and to tbe point." “Cross Rhodes might fill the bill," said Hills, and then there was a laugh all around. "I skim over the Constitution's edi torials," said a noted Judge this morn ing. "but I read those in Tbe Tele graph very closely. The writers on tho Constitution seem to have no legal knowledge whatever. They make ridiculous mistakes when law point* and principles are Involved. "The Telegraph, on tho other hand. Is always accurate and clear. Then. It* editorial* are written with some re gard to style, and. let me ten yen. style counts. Now. I don't believe that Editor Howell and hU subordinates know what atyte tv If they can mud dy the water* tu their roaring rlrera of diction they are satisfied.” Major Juntuv Atlanta.
