The' council appropriations for the municipal expenses of the city of Macon for the year 1901 aggregate $252,930. The farmer who failed to produce this year corn, meat and hay plenti fully will soon learn that there’s where he made a mistake. The cotton growers and the spec ulators disagree as to condition and the prospective size of the crop, the growers insisting that present prices are too low. It is already in evidence that the “leaders” of the republican party will not be able to lead President Roosevelt contrary to his strenuous will. He proposes to exercise his ■own judgment. Czolgosk, the assassin of Presi dent McKinley, has been tried and convicted of murder in the first de gree, and sentenced to death. The trial occupied less than two days, and developed nothing not already The some of the controlling himself, and that is not pleasing to the profes sionals. It may be too much to expect that any republican official will con sider the interests of the country greater than the interests of those who control much money and de mand special privileges, but such hope is entertained. In this connection the following from our Washington correspondent is interesting: “It is becoming more and more evi dent every day that there will be a battle royal in the Republican party in Congress this winter on _the sub ject of reciprocal trade arrangements with foreign nations. Mr. JEtoose- velt has declared in favor of these, and the American Protective Asso ciation—which practically controls the destinies of all eastern Congress men—has declared against them. Issue will soon be joined; indeed, it is already asserted that Mr. Roose velt is weakening. Such would not be expected from a study of his rec ord in the past, but it is worth while to remember that when he declared so unreservedly for the treaties, he had not felt the force of the opposi tion. The Tariff Association did not consider that he, as Vice-Presi dent, would have anything to do with the decision of the question except in the highly improbable case that the Senate should be a tie, and had taken no steps to influence him Now that he has so suddenly been elevated to so powerful a posi tion, the Associarion is moving heaven and earth to convince him of the inadvisability of taking any ac tion. “Wait awhile,” they say, “and study the situation. President McKinley’s declarations on the sub ject were not positive, but only ten tative and he was open to argument from our side. Do you be the same” “Besides,” they add, “it would be such a pity to antagonize those who would hold the strings of the purses that supply the Republican cam- schecluled to arrive Augusta forenoon Oct. 18; final limit Oct. 20. , Elks Street Fair, Macon, Ga., Oct, 21- 27, 1901; tickets on sale Oct. 20- 25, inclusive, and for trains sched uled to arrive Macon forenoon Oct. 26; final limit Oct. 28.

A Fiendish Attack. An attack was lately made on C. F. Collier of Cherokee, Iowa, that nearly proved fatal. It came through his kidneys. His back got so lame he could not stoop without great pain, nor sit in a chair except propped by cushions. No remedy helped him until he tried Electric Bitters which effected such a won derful change that he writes he feels like a new man. This marvelous medicine cures backache and kidney trouble, purifies the blood and builds up your health. Only 50c at Holtzclaw’s Drug Store.

The Central of Georgia Railway ■company is serving the material in terests of Georgia by publishing and distributing bulletins concerning the culture of important agricultural and horticultural crops. The latest, bul letin No. 14, contains articles on“The Fruit of Industry,” and “Grading and shipping tobacco.” Late dispatches show that all the Philippine Islands have not been subjugated. On September 28th a company of United States soldiers was attacked by insurgents at Bar- langiga, Island of Samar, and all killed or captured except 24. The company was composed of 72 men -and officers, nnd they were attacked 'while at breakfast. It seems that the Schley court of inquiry is likely to bring discredit upon the navy department. If Schley is shown to have acted in the Santi ago campaign contrary to orders and duty, his promotion by endorse ment of the navy department was wrong. If the finding is in his fa vor, then the navy department has been a party to outrageous persecu tion. The cdndnct of the govern ment officials seemingly indicates that Schley is"fin trial for crime, and that the government is anxious to convict. The Georgia soldiers’ home at Atlanta was destroyed by fire last Monday, There was insurance to amount of $1200 on the building and furniture, and already a sub scription to raise the necessary funds to rebuild has been started in Atlan ta. The fire was discovered at about 8 o’clock, directly after the inmates had eaten their breakfast. The At lanta Journal at once rented the Thompson Hotel on Marietta street, and there the veterans are how at home. This action of the Joumal is certainly commendable and gener ous, to say the least of it. necessary m 1904.” The question may thus resolve itself into whether Mr. Roosevelt intends to be a candi date three years hence; if he does, the chances are that he will be very chary in pushing reciprocity.” The Farmer and the Roundlap Bale. Under its new management the business of the American Cotton Company is being vigorously push ed. The Southern farmer is fast coming to see that his interests and those of the Americaii Cotton Com pany lie in the same direction. Every unnecessary expense in marketing cotton is that much taken out of the farmer’s pockets, and every dollar he Baves by having his cotton put up in roundlap bales is that much added to his profits. The American Cotton Company’s interests lies in enabling the presses it builds to bale as much cotton as possible. In order to secure this result it is es sential that cotton growers shall continue to find advantage in the use of these presses. There is no requirement that a single bale of cotton be sold to the American Cot ton Company. Roundlap bales, with all of their advantages, can be bought in open competition by any responsible buyer and handled through to the mills, but whenever the ordinary cotton buyer declines to purchase roundlap bales on this basis the American Cotton Compa ny stands ready to buy them. The farmer who hauls his seed cdtton to a roundlap gin may retain as complete control over it as if he took it to an old-style ginnery. He can sell his cotton with or without the seed, or he can have it custom ginned (selling or keeping the seed) and hold his roundlap bales until he is ready to sell, with the assuranoe that they are always salable at the full market value of roundlap cotton. The American Cotton Company makes liberal advances on held ronndlap bales. * THE ELECTRIC CYLINDAR White Cedar Chum. Best and quickest on tbe market. $2.50, $3 and $5, size 3, 5, and 7 gal.
