THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN. NORTH CAROLINA INDORSES MARK JOHNSTON’S RACE FOR STATE SCHOOL COMMISSIONER false and slanderous IS BRAND PLACED UPON REPORT BY COL. GORDON following we clip front the Wll- ii (N. C.) Messenger of Au- EACH RACE TO PAY IT8 SCHOOL TAX.. The bitter light between Messrs. Pn lth end Howell hae eo overehedowed everythin* elee connected with the Democratic primary campaign In Geor- gi.' that people, outside of the atate at least, have foat sight of the fact that other 'candidates are In the campaign. One of these la making a canvass which, but for the sensational Hmlth- H o veil contest, would attract much at tention because of the platform on which he la running, If not for any other reason. This la Hon. Mark John ston, of Baldwin county, who la a can didate for office of state school com missioner. He advocates division of the school tag fund between the races according to tha amount paid by each race. His motto la: "White man's tax for white man's children," and with this on his banner he la marching through Georgia urging the white men to stand by him In the primary elec tlon. Dr. Johnston's candidacy Is of more vital Importance to the people of Georgia than that of the men at the head of the ticket, for he Is running on a principle which, If Indorsed by the people In his nomination, will mean that they favor this plan of division of the school tax, and It will put Georgia In the lead of the Southern states In revolutionising the public school ays tern. Dr. Johnston Is a physician, high' ly educated and a most accomplished gentleman, of good old Georgia stock, the son and grandson of noted edu cators of that state. There are many advocates of Dr. Johnston's platform In North Carolina.

In It sec- bnda and 1 minute he wna neck-deep In history and reaching out for heroes of mythology. Mr. Covington said Gordon was n hero. So were the soldiers who had (>ught under him and so were the Spartans at Thermopylae. In passing he referred Incidentally to Hannlbul, end paid a tribute to Alexander the Great. He dwelt upon the virtues of X . eoleon and brought that warrior's i“ enty centuries remarks down to date. Then he got his second wind nnd ► ■ ung off the beaten track of hero V ship and strayed among other great inert he had known. He began with Noah aad played both waya against the middle. If It was not Adam In the Harden of Eden It was the Sphinx gat ing meditatively across the sands of Sahara. He touched up William Tell uml LI Hung Chang, Mark Anthony and Nlcodemu* and then brought his ten minutes to a climax by giving prominent mention to Hameses, Laer- tee Thucydides, Demosthenes and Fe- ride*. When he had brought that gal axy of talent and Intellect out of his system and waa about to resume his - at a diminutive page pressed a mes- r ige In his hand. The orator read, In the writing of a gentleman from across the house: "What’s the matter with Socrates?" "Mr.'Speaker, 1 move the previous question. The voice Is not a loud .one cigarette. After remarking that he must break himself of that habit alnee the cigarette haa been medo an out cast by the legislature, he began to discuss the Gordon monument bill, then under discussion beyond the closed doors, nnd of his own bill to erect n monument to Oglethorpe, tron saint of 8avannah. "I want all you boyn to vote for that monument If It comes up again," hs said. -It will be your last opportunity to erect a monument to the memory of Plena Stovall and me. After this year our nnmes will be In oblivion." "Why don't you tack on your monu ment as an iimendment to this Gordon bill?" asked another metnbgr.' ."Then we'll either kill both of them or put them both through. Better hurry." The gentleman from Chatham made n run for Ills desk and looked buay for a while. But the Gordon monument bill was burdened with no amendment whep It went through. Mr. Anderson evidently did not act on the suggestion. Malaria Makes Pals Sickly Children. The Old Standard, Grove’s Tastsless Chill Tonic, drives out malaria and builds up the system.
