FOR CONGRESS:
HON. GORDON LEE.
Beware of not others, !mt your
self. You’re a clock of uneven
habits and you can’t tell what you
may do next.
It’s dead easy for a man to get
the last word in an argument
with a woman if he knows how.
All he has to do is to say it to
himself in a whisper.
To see the long lists of candi
dates in most of the county pa
pers will dispell the idea, if any
body entertains it, that Geor
gians have ceased to be patriotic.
—Augusta Herald.
A lawyer settles up a million
dollar estate in a couple or three
months and gets $75,000 for it;
thuts professional. The doctor
polls you back from the jaws of
death and you kick on paying him
$10: that’s natural.
Some of our friende seem to
wonder why we are not saying
lots of nice things for Governor
Hoke Smith these campaign days.
The answer is simply, we do not
need to spend any type or space
for him since his re-election is
as sure as he lives to accept the
nomination.—Vidalia Advance.
MR. BROWN’S ENTIRE BUSINESS CAREER
CONSISTS OP FOUR POSITIONS, ALL
OF WHICH HE LOST BY DISHISSAL.
(From The Atlanta Journal.)
When we consider that the to
tal value of farm products in the
United States amount to seven
billion dollars for the past twelve
months as against a value of one-
lialf that amount in 1900, and
when we consider that 05 per
cent of our population are farm
ers, there is no room in this coun
try for the pessimist or for sing
ing songs of trade depression.
This country is alright, and the
farmers are responsible for the
tremendous strides the United
States is making along all lines
of industrial and financial de
velopment.—Cotton Journal.
'n commenting on Hon, Joe
Brown’s erndidaev for governor
the Albany Herald says: “To
one who views the situation
the light of cold-blooded politics,
it looks like Mr. Brown has let a
conspiracy of the reactionaries
and railroad malcontents make a
cat’s-paw of him. The campaign
into which they have shoved him
will be a mean one, and the Her
aid regrets to see it precipilated
It is entirely useless and can
serve no other purpose, so far as
results are concerned, than to
give certain interests and defeat
ed and dissappointed politicians
an opportunity to vent their
spleen on Governor Smith and
his administration and to dis
credit him as much as possible in
the hope of preventing him from
“making goo 1” in some of the
reforms for which he advocated
in his memorable campaign be
fore the state two years ago.
Hon. J. E. Mozley, of Mariet
ta a friend and fellow-townsman
of Hon. Joseph M. Brown, ex
railroad commissioner, and can
didate for governor, has written
to The Journal, inviting atten
tion to Mr. Brown’s record as a
“business man.”
Mr. Mozley is a prominent and
successful lawyer and enjoys the
confidence and respect of the
people of Cobb county. He has
twice represoted the county in
the slate legislature, has served
the city of Marietta as mayor,
and was the unanimous choice of
(Jobb county as senator from the
8Gth district a few years ago,
when it was Cobb’s time to name
the senator.
Mr. Mozley’s card follows:
Mr. Mozloy’s Card.
Marietta, Ga., March 28,1908.
“Editor Journal:
“I observe in some of the news
papers frequont reference to Mr.
Joseph M. Brown as a successful
business man. Some of his en
thusiastic friends have claimed
that if he should be elected gov
ernor, the state would have'‘a
business administration.’
It is not my desire to deprive
Mr. Brown of any credit to which
ho is properly entitled, nor is it
my desire to influence anybody
to vote for Governor Smith. 1
am a citizen of Marietta, have
resided here many years, have
several times been honored by
my neighbors, and am quite fa
miliar with Mr. Brown’s record
as a business man and otherwise.
I was strongly opposed to
Governor Smith in the last cam
paign, and exerted what in
fluence I lmd to induce the peo
ple of Cobb county to vote against
him. 1 am under no obligation
to Inin now. I hold no office, and
desire none. 1 have had no com
munication with Governor Smith,
and what I wish to say is entire
ly in the interest of justice and
fairness.
“The claim that Mr. Brown
should be regarded as a success
ful business man, is taken as a
joke by those who know him.
Few men started in life with
better opportunities than Joseph
M. Brown. His father was not
only one of the few rich men, but
perhaps the only millionaire, of
his time in the state, and had
the added prestige of being a
most successful politician, be
sides having entire control of the
state railroad—the Western and
Atlantic.
“His son, Joseph M., since his
father’s death, lias occupied just
four positions, and from all four
ho has been dismissed for 'busi
ness reasons.’
Dismissed by N. C. & St. L.
“He first essayed as passenger
agent of the W. & A. railroad.
He held his job just so long
his father had control of that
railroad. When the N. O. & St.
L. railroad leased the W. & A.,
Joseph M. Brown was dismissed,
as I am informed, for business
incompetency.
“He then secured a position
with the Seaboard Air Line rail
road, which he held for a short
time, and, I am informed, was
dismissed for business incompe
tency. The Seaboard attempted
to let Mr. Brown down easily,
and announced that he had
signed; but Mr. Brown, in order
to make his business record com
plete and consistent, announced,
in a ‘card’ in the newspapers
that he had not resigned, but had
been ‘fired.’
“The third position from which
Mr. Brown was dismissed for
business incomuetency, was that
of joint-executor with his broth
er of the vast Brown estates.
There is on file in the records of
the superior court of Fulton coun
ty a most astounding petition, to
which is attr. shed the names of
Mr. Brown’s brothers and sisters,
declaring that his management
of the estate of the late Senator
Brown wa» grossly incompttent,
and has resulted in almost dis
sipating the immense fortune
which th. : ir father left. Those
brothers and sisters who filed the
petition succeeded in having him
removed and are now in charge
of the property.
Loses Out as Commissioner.
“The fourth position held by
Mr. Joseph M. Brown was that
of railroad commissioner, to
which office Mr. Brown was ap
pointed by Joseph M. Terrell.
He was dismissed also from this
office by the present governor.
He not only spent his time writ
ing cards attacking the state and
the administration of laws by
the railroad commission, but was
cognizant of the fact tl at the
railroads were circulating, at
their own expense, his cards, in
pamphlet form.
“This -is Mr. Brown’s entire
business career. He has held
four positions, and lost all four
by dismissal.
“What I have said about Mr.
Brown is written in no spirit of
8t)ite or malice. My relations
with Mr, Brown have always been
very friendly. Those who know
him in Atlanta and Marietta, his
two home cities, will agree with
me, that as a business man, 'Air.
Brown is a complete failure,
whatever other merits he may
have—and he has many. 1 am
moved to write this card in order
that those who may be induced
to vote for him may do so with a
full understanding that Mr.
Brown lias has absolutely no
claims whatever upon their suf
frage as a business man. I se
riously doubt if he ever earned a
dollar in his life except in the
salaries that have been paid him
in various positions.
Mr. Brown is said to be an
excellent Greek scholar. -
“Very truly yours,
“J. E. Mozlky.”
An Inddious Danger.
One of the worst features ofkldney
trouble Is that it Is nil insidious dis
ease and before the victim realizes
his danger he may have a fatal mal
ady. Take Foley’s Iiidney Remedy
at the first sign of trouble ns it cor
rects irregularities and prevents
Bright's disease and diabetes. Coop
er’s Drug Store.
The more a man doesn’t know
the less he douhts.
Affords Perfect Security.
Folev’s Honey snd Tar affords perfict
security from pneumonia and consump
tion as It cities the most obstinate coughs
and colds. We hare never known a single
instance of n cold resulting in pneumonia
after Foley’s Honey and Tnr had been
taken. Cooper’s Drug Store.
Many a wise-lookmg man
unable to deliver the goods.
A Common Mistake.
Many women mistake kidney and blad
der troubles for some irregularity pecu
liar to the sex. Foley's Kidney Remedy
corrects irregularities and makes women
well. Miss Carrie Harden, Bowling
Ureen, Ky., writes: “I suffered much
pain trom Kulnev and bladder trouble un
til I started to use Foley’s Kiduey Hem,
dy. Thu first bottle gave me great relief,
and after taking the second bottle I was
entirely well." Cooper’s Dang Store.
The nice thing about being a
sinner is because it’s never
Unesome job.
