Maybe It would be a stroke of wis
dom on the part of the administra
tion to call Gen. Wood home to serve
a subpeona on Rockefeller.
President Roofeevelt holds himself
prepared to exhibit specimen blocks
of the equare deal to all delegations
that visit the White House.
Gov. Cummins, of Iowa, has a
knack of poltlng the fifth rib of the
republican party Just whe n It Is do
Ing Its best to look pleasant.
Let nobody deceive himself with
tho Idea that things will quiet down
some day so there will be nothing
left for Tom Lawson to write about.
If we baj March weather In Jan
uary, why should w'e not have Janu
ary weather In March and April?
Some people are so hard to please.
Jf Hoke Smith wanted to know
•whether there are any more Georgia
brickbats In the place where Clark
Howell got the last one. he found
out.
Supjmse that John D. Rockefeller
III roaches man’s estate endowed
with the business ability of his
grandfather, and then do a little
figuring.
It Is proposed to make It unlawful
for any person In the United States
to use the flag for advertising pur
poses—unless he Is a member ot
congress.
Some folks are astonished becaus®
a man left $20,000 to a dog. but they
do not wink an eyelash when told
that some young puppy has inherit
ed a fortune.
COL. ESTILL’A DENIAL.
j Col. J. H. Estlll, candidate
governor, has issued the following
vigorous statement denying that he
Is running In the Interest of Hon.
Clark Howell:
“To the Democratic voters of
Georgia: A report Is being per-.,
sonally and Industriously clrculat
ed In the First, Second and Third..
congressional district*, by Hon...
Hoke Smith and his friends that
my canvass of the state Is In the
Interest of Hon. Clark Howell.
I have denied this report in the
most positive way wiieneverlt has
been brought to my attention,
but It Is still being circulated,
with the hope, no doubt, that tt
will cause my friends to become
lukewarm In my behalf.
“I take this method of denying
it again, and In the most posi
tive manner. The Idea that
would make such a canvass as I
am making In the Interest of an
other candidate is preposterous.
“I nr making a canvass of the
state for the purpose of beating
Mr. Howell and Mr. Smith and
every ocher candidate for the
nomination for governor, anj
with the help of God and the vot
es of my fellow democrats I hope
to be successful.
“I am a candidate In my own
Interest, not In that of another
candidate. My platform, other
than the constitution and laws
of the state, Is enforcement of
the laws the treatment of all peo-*
pie and every Interest with Jus
tice and fairness. It ask the
support apd Influence of all who
believe In a square deal for
everybody and a business admin
istration of the affairs of the
state. J. h. Estlll.”
It Is hardly necessary for Col.E a
till to deny the report which has s<
Industriously circulated,
dent purpose of prejudicing voters
against him. We hav© no special in
terest In the matter, except to see
fulriu ss done, but we do not object
to saying that Col. Estill’s candidacy
was announced before either of the
other candidates now In the race.
For Tax Collector. I For Tax Collector.

Iu the first place it was ridiculous
for Andy Hamilton to preserve tha x
Bliss vouchor for $76,000 for ten
years, which was the insurance con

Mr*. John D. Rockefeller Is quot

do not know where their husbands
are unless they are in Jail or on a

Another - evident “fact about that

ton claims to have had from Como*

to be trying more and more to forget
It.

of the strike of 190:
tlons are somewhat different this
year. If the Indianapolis -deadlock
be not broken about 1 350,000 men wll 1
be Involved, while lu 1902 the strike
was said to have affected 140,000.
Then four years ago the operators
were not prepared. They had no
supply, while this year the surplus
stock Is estimated at from 10.000,000
to 15.000.000 tons, while the sales in
the average summer months aggre
gate 3.000.000 tons. The large Iron
plants of Western Pennsylvania have
been storing up coal to prepare for
such an Industrial disturbance as Is
threatened, while t.ie steel trust Is
rushing men to Its own mines.
In 1902 the financial damage of the
strikj was placed at $100,000,000.
About $29,000,000 was lost la wages
by the miners, while the loss to em
ploye* of coal carrying railroads was
nearly as great. A repetition ot
this loss or an even greater loss this
year will have a depressing effect
upon business, while the loss to the
consumer of coal will be hard to es
timate. It may be set down as a fact
however, that If the mines are closed
that fact will be plainly shown in the
Increased price of coal.
But these conditions should not
affect tile situation If the miners are
unjustly treated. While the public
will submit to Inconvenience ln the
Interest of fair play, there will be a
corresponding Indignation if a strike
should be precipitated without Jus
tification.
