The Ladies’ Memorial Association nslks that the sum of three hundred doiisri—the amount of the debt now carried by 'he aso-ela'lou on account of the headstones in the soldiers’ lot at Rose -H811—*>e made tip promptly. They ask to be relieved from the bur den of Mi's responsibility. By whom Nlro-uld rh-is dribt be paid? _ rp rwo vp'iorim who ivy y uuv. - ^ fought side by side with the men whose aamss are written on the marble slabs. By their sons and gnanddons, -whose proudest boost <*iouLl be to And their names upon the roil of honor of the men whfo fought bmvrty for their homes and their country. Tbit debt is owed by every man who profits by the high example sat by these braive a ml unselfish patriots. And who Is nut profited when thousands Show by their acts that they love country more tblan they love life? The Telegraph has not seconded tho previous appeals made by the Indies at the Memorial Autoda tion to the pub lic for the amount of money necessity to wipe off this debt, because It hoped thtart the men of Macon would feel that such a second -wins entirely superfluous. Nt>w, hpwever, that Memorial Day is drawing near and the ajupsal has been nfede through tho column* of 'ho Tel- egralph, we desire to draw .the attention of our reader* to the faot that if Me morial Day itffettt !>nd 'his paltry debt remain unpaid that fact Will he dlscrodMable to every man among us.

This amount must be ralaed by Me morial Day. The TokgnajAi will gladly nckn-owHufee all donations to the head stone fund, and mb* earnestly re quests Its readers not to delay or h(«i- iste. The duty is plain and must rot be shirked. FOR IMDNIOIBAL 11MUROVHMlENT, About three years ago .there w»s or- ganixed In Kansas City a Municipal Imyrovenretit AHwdaWon. It might very naturally »>e supp<-«*l «b*t such am organisation w-mbl stir up toena* antagonism because of Its interference wltto the work of regularly (footed «nu nieipal officers. But* tons not been the cane In Kansas OMy, however. The uiMoolntlOD has done much valuable and effective work and rititt continue* in high farvor. An exeouttve committee hoWs meet ings 'twice a inootlh and other standing committees attcsul *10 regular bualnere allotted to them. One- of t»ie best pi cow of work credited to *be associa tion Is the devolopanumt of a strong sentiment tn favor of ism-pa rtlsamship In municipal government. The assoria t’gn, which counts ruuong Us metnbera a large number of the most .prominent ctusens belonging to bath polfitonl par ties, has three prime puipostw 1o view. The float object of the ongmlsadon Is to gather sod dlsrsn* ail posw.hle In formation and rfathklcs ss to the uieil ed- need by other cities In the levytng of taxes, expending of public fund*, paving, cleaning ami other Important matters contracted with municipal gov ernment. Again, irhe association pledges itself to secure the co-operation of all cittseta Id all movements and measures looking to improvement and reform, thus se curing till pxnlble advantages to be obtain'd by a wise and economical ad ministration of mnnlalpal affairs. The thinl object of the association is to secure the pnmage of ordinances conducive to the health and prosperity of the community, and consequently to tike step* looking to the repeal of or- dinancoi or /sate taws that. In the opin ion of the association, may need atten tion. We have no douHi that a movement lookltg tea such an orgattxation would not And favor with some of the several factions that make up (MhconV munic ipal -political body, 5mt -we Jove never theless no doubt tfiaii such an- organi zation, wisely and actively conducted hcr<i would have a very beneficial effort. OH.Uit.MIAN OLAY’S ADVICE. In the Interview whkflj we printed yesterday, Mr. CLiiy, clwhrmnn of tho state Democratic executive committee, recognized oloaciy the fact, -which has been forcing Itself upon the attention of all IXimwmuts, that a desperate struggle for the control of the natty, betiwoen the men who believe in sound money and those who are In favor of a poHey which mu»t result In silver monomdtaBlsm, is impending In Ihte abate. It Is well that the official hriid of the party should announce this fact, so that *11 Democrats may prepare themselves to take an Intelligent part In that contest His advice that all Democrats denote Ihomselvos to soudy of ah© silver qu«ft'.-ou Is the best ad- vice that could be given. It is had t» see now how a victory for eliltor one side or the other in the convention 1* to be followed by peace ful and united action by the party. Strictly speaking, the Issue is not a political one. There to no Democratic principle which binds a Democrat no one view or the other of the currency question, unless it be that the old Dem ocratic belief in sound money compels Democrats of this day to do -what they can -to prevent the present currency of the country from being degraded. But, admitting that no political principle -is Involved, -the Issue is nevertheless of momentous importance In the eyes or both -tWose who favor and those who oppose tho Independent free onlnage of silver. The clreums ances are exactly those most favWM/ble tto a div'slon in the patty, and this fact, we think, Should not toe forgotten hy any Demo crat to whl'.m she integrity of the -party Is dear and who believes that on its ascendhincy dqpendu 111 large measure -the prosperity of the ooun-try. Regard fbr this fact ought tio divest discussion of the silver question by Democrats of some of the bitterness that has iroon injected in-io tt and which thivi-trtens *„ been-me more intense. Let us f allow lug, and that probably several thous and mere itnocps would be sent fr-ui the mother country. - Fnom Tampa and Key Watt, every day or two, comes a story of great wince*** won by the patriots and of -bbousaodf *a-lnl to the ranks of their soldiery. The newspaper «Rtor tmttt be exbujed If In the midst of those conflicting sto ries, and In spate of what looks Mkeihe fullest Information, he finds hims- lf unable to do more than guess at the truth of the situation in Oufoa. The mbs: probable guess is that the at tempt to bring about a rising of the Cuban people agalnrit the Spanish g-.v- ern incut has failed, and that Cuba has entered upon a tong period of guerilla warfare, coarty to Spain In money and prolific of cruelty, such as that griTch began about the Middle of the sixties and tatted for ten. years. If tbu be true, Cuba is sincerely ro toe (Med. There Is nothing of good for her in such warfare. D can but Interrupt h.-r trade, hamper her Industries, and add largely to tho enormous financial har den- which She already beam. uVOT OUR QUARREL. 1 THE MONROE D0GT31NE. Senator Hill Talks of the Interference Under That Under standing, It Is said tha-t -the diplomacy of Nic aragua in dealing with the difficulty in wblrti she has become involved with Great Britain has for Its purpose the en-ta-nglctnon;- of -the United States In the quarrel. If so, then our Bov-rn- ment ought -to lose no -time In lcttthg Nicaragua, on the one hand, and* stand -that her quarrels are her nwn, and Great Britain, on -the other, -that no seizure of -Nicaraguan ferrltoty, giv ing command of the proposed canal, trill be -tolerated. When It has dt.ne this, Cv.oaragua and Great Britain can be safely left to settle their quarrel iu their own wav. To do anything more in vindication of -she iMlmttoe doctrine, so-called, Would sett a precedent which we -would hereafter find very troui Je rome. It Is none of our business how often Nicaragua expels British eannuls, nor how -many thousand dollars Great Britain may ex-Jort in compensation for such injuries. It is our bustoess look after our own interests. When we undertake to hold ourselves re sponsible for the acts of the semt-civil- Ized Central end South Aimerlcnn re publics, there will be no cud to our Chairman Clay’s advice and study the difflcailty. ,'ump qn.ut-jh more. Let -us not ooncilustirma, nor be deceived by spe cious arguments -wtthoua taking the trouble to inform our»elvd» of the truth or falsity of die premises on which they are based. An attnmpa has been made by tho free sliver prews to convey the impres sion that there Is practically no oppo- sition to the free silver movement In Georgia. This ntrontpt Is mere polit ical strategy. When the test comes *t will be found that the sentiment among Georgia- Democrats In favor of main taining In -this country as good money as la current in «ny other country Is exceed'.ugly sttGng. We believe it Is strong euougb to elect n majority of the delegates to -the Convention. That It Is very string is admitted by Chntr- m-an Otay when he says that opposed to free coinage resolutions will be found "a solid ami determiucl opposl- :lon, made up of men who will never surrender their oonvkttilons on this question—most of 'town at heart friendly -u> silver -mouoy, but advocat ing other -means of securing It Hun these titoltrjrily set forth by out-and- out free oolnage men” It -Is a time when Democrats sboniil be careful that Id all i-heir lists and Utteranew they are guklud by re.iriou atul not by preju dice. There never was a time when it was easier to bring about a lasting dl risten In the party. The plumber and the coal man's bills are things of the past, but not so with tho mlosqulto. The two former got everything Ibis year but our blood, and the mosquito will now try to get'that The Young Men’s Bus tles* Longue has a difficult and somewhat paradox ical condition, to confront should it un dertake to solve the dm# pnoNein.

The son ator -wo* ariked, anyone other tilnss. whether exports to public law think the -Monroe dodtrlne has given to the United States a apodal right-, not given by -the generai taw, to intervene be tween Groat Britain and Venezuela in tho -pending boundary dispute, or as sume a protectorate over Spanish- America. (He answered that) he had never thought so. “But docs not the iMbnroe doctrine,” was inqutrid, “declare that the United Sates cannot permit any Spanish- American repuhflio on this continent to be oppressed, or Its destiny controlled by a Darcpean sure?” “That -would have referred,” he said, “to a legitimate dispute such as we or any other g- -vernmetit might have tomorrow with a St»o.iSh-*Aimerioan state. It protected against using such a controversy -with- an Intention to In crease European, ipoktlcol (Umv.nton on this hemrispCtere or control the destiny of an American ritate, or transfer a ooiony tike Cuba to a now European owner, but did not change what was then the law of mat-ions. The estab lishment a year or two before 1823 of more than a dozen indqpoiMlent states at -the south of us naturally forced the United States Into now lines of thought and action. John Quincy Attains, our then ™ri.*ter of foreign affairs, had the eyes to discern It. Entangling al liances on this ride as well as on the other side of the ocean -were to too avoided so for as could be. We had to ‘maintain impartial -neutrality in the affair* of the new nnd Indqpondent Spstnlah-Aimerioan stnlttM and suppress, as we should today, piratical expedi tions from our shores against any of them or any retrai ning European col ony. The Xtoaroe doctrine Was ex erted a -powerful influence at home ami abroad In regard -to Cuba, Yuca tan, Nicaragua and Its itrfims of -Mbs- qulto Indians, Invented by England, a NiiipoHoamlc dynasty sot up thirty year* ago in. Mexloo and dominion over all the regions of projected Imtereoce-anlo onnals.” "But was ra>j the -Monroe dedl*ra.tton to congress a national pledge, n guar antee of our 1-oterveo-tton, forcible if need be, in behalf of carts Sjattsh- Amcn.oan republic -whenever, In our opinion, oppressed oy . ft European state?’’ was a (feed. *• “I -think not," he replied.

In 1808 President John son ptojodted a treaty -with Colombia, which was signed, oirtt*'lyin« the Mon roe doctrine, but mel frer the Colombo n spate ner our own senate reel fled it. You remember tlia/t -when ttvo years after President IMonroe mode hi* dec- Vnrat'.on, a Cungreas was convened by Bolivia nt Punanw for --he eonsidcra- on nnd discussion of an ‘American ahh-nee' to enforce tho doctarution. there- was substantial ooncurfeuce of oplnioD between President John Quincy Adams, -who had formulated the Monroe doctrine, nnd --he members of the senate and house, especially the Democrats, Inelud ng Senator Van Bu- ron of New York, par-Wei-ii—ting la a long debate, that -the decl-arai ton did not pledge the United States to for ever thereafter prevent a European power from tu erferln-g wltth the 'tide- p -ndene-e or form of government of a Central American stuile." So you think that President Mon roe has the reputation of having given his name to 'a rule ottvonduct by th-) United States for which neither ha nor Mr. Adam* contended ” “Precisely that,” the senator an swered, "The doctrine cannot -be for mulated In a treaty or a statute, but yet Its moral Influence has been, is and ought to be very grOat. Discrimi nation should, however, be mail* be tween legitimate dispute* and Illegiti mate purposes behind the disputes, such as imposing by force European political control over the destiny of a reluctant Independent Spanlsh-Amerl- cau state. President Lincoln must have felt that sohie thirty years ago.- Un der the influence then exerted by us France withdrew her army, M-ixl- mllltan was deserted and Mexico again became Independent. In 1879. when tho United States of Colombia granted to Frenchmen a concession for building and controlling an inter-oceanic canal at Panama, President Hayes -lid not Intervene or ask congresu to Intervene anil congress did not Intervene tc pre vent the work. And yet In 1882 Presi dent Arthur did authorize Secretary Frriinghuysen to go so far os to say otflclally that the state department will not sanction an arbitration by European states of South American difficulties, even with the consent of the parties. Two years before that Secretary Blaine had -written to our minister at Paris that the pr-sldent would regard with grave anxiety any attempt by France to force by nosttle pressure the payment by Venexuela of her debt to French dtlxens. Interpos ing our good offices between England and Venexuela 1s one thing, but dic tating to one or the other I* a very dlffierent thing, unless It be a dear car* or self-defense. There are Iso lated, casual sentences In the doctrine which provide for a muie general In terpretation and have exerted a con trolling and most fcefldleent Influence In the old world as well as In tHe new, but without accomplWhlg a change of that law .of nations under which on* state can forcibly Intervene In the affairs of another state, or of two or more contending states. The Monroe doctrine was and Is immensely popu lar, but Its application should, of course, vary with the facts and altua- tion which Invoke It." PEACHES IN ABUNDANCE. All That I» Needed Is Quick anil Good Transportation. Fort Volley, April 21.—Opellal.)—Mr. J. H. Hale of South Gaatonbury, Conn., president of the Halo Georgia Orchard and Nursery Compa-n-q came dawn Fri day aflgUt and spent one dao looking over his fruit landH, retonntng home Sat urday afternoon. -Mr. Hale has been In the fruit -busBnewa for a number of years, and he has made horticulture a life-study. The company of which he is provident awns 887 acres of fruit lands about three miles from Fort Valley, on which they have over 100.000 fruit tree: that will -be -bcurtag tlhla year. They have ono of tile prettiest places tn the country. Mr. Hale has named his place Edge-wood, after the former owner of the place. When enjproached by the Telegraph correspondent he spoke very enthusias tically of the prospect. “Peaches ga lore.” said Mr. Hule. "If nine-tenths tii.lt a-re noav on the trees are gathered we .will then get a good ip-rofltatole crop. I don't »ee anything now that can pre vent our having peaches In abundance. It is true you may have hull storms, cyclones, etc., but they will not all be destroyed. Bugs! -worms! Wiry, I ha-vn't seen a single one on my 100,000 tree*. There may be some fow worms, yet after these cool ndghlts stop, but It would take armies of bugs to hurt the crop now on the trees, nnd then they would -wear their wea(poiw out be fore they could sting one-tonth of them. “Yes, sir; everything now Indicutes a full, perfect crop of the finest fruit that -was ever beheld In America. Every thing here Is Just as lovely ami pleas ant now as the most aesthetic heart can desire, and the man or -woman -who can’t appreciate Georg's and Heitst n tt county, just now eepeotally. Is Juat too exquisite for this material universe, and should spread his wtnga and soar off the liulMtable globe. “Yes, I am going home; can't spend but one day with you t-h-is 'time. Will be back, however, In May and try to market about 100,000 crates of line fruit before I leave again. The growers have waited patiently, and now that their efforts look like being crowned w-ith sucoos'. I do hope the railroad people will square up to them in the way of transportation. If they could realize what a -bonanza this peach shipping buslneto will be -to the railroads they would cortainly spare no time or ex pense In talking care of It. With this Immense crcp coming on. comes also the final test as to whether Georgia peaches oan be shipped to all sections ot the Union In good order and at -a profit to the grower. So the railroads must do ttielr full Share 1f we succeed, and this is the season for them to dhow what they can and will do. I Intend to select my fruit -uind ship only tlie best and flnest that grows. I think growers make a great mistake In -not selecting good fruit and putting It up In nice pn-akagra. It will pay batter for t-horn to throw all th.tr inferior and Imperfect stuff a any than to attempt to crowd K on the markets -with their good fruit. If -we will do -the right thing In selecting and packing, and the railroads the square thing about slipping, Georgia L* In the fruit business to stay, for the whoU work! want* peaches.” Mr. Hale was for many year* In the horticultural department a* Warihlng- ton, D. C., and while there he visited the fruit orchards of every state In the Union. He shams what he thinks of ttvis section by Investing largely In lands and by making this place his sum mer home. be first-class, os there will 'be no d culio to damage It and as there huge quantities of It. sucl1 Railroad and rcfrlgttHior inrn have been over the state, with liv ing growers here, have estimated th,, the peach crop of the suite „iH h. about 1,000 full cars, proportioned follows: Fort Valley, too rar ». Shallvlllc, 300 cars, and the balanceL the state 300. This estimate will h, doubled to quantity In another ye?, on account of the Increased acretw and growth of the trees. The result, of the yield of small peach tre -a always disappointing, while amI : trees will generally come up to n ,„.. than an estimate. The fjalt growers nt q-U are called together for a meeting Mon. day aternoon to take into consideration some very Important arrangement* u to crates and transportation and n? feeling plan* for a mutual understand" in*. This Is very Important when it is considered that the first shipment, of Alexander peaches continence in a month, or about the 20th of -May. Tho trees and fruit are growing fast and doing as well as one could expect. Rev. TV. E. Mumford of the Or- phana’ Home lectured nt the Methodm ohurch Tuesday evening on the s*.
