The muck-rako Is being overworked,
'not only by the editorial writers, but
'by tho cartoonists ns well.
It Is estimated that It Is worth from
$50,000 to $100,000 to bo a member of
the State Senate of New York. Graft.
Every now and then we are re
minded that, there are newspaper read
ers who don’t know the difference be
tween an editorial and a local or tele

The Sunday lid was kept on In Lou

I police arrested the whole business and
stoppod the game.
THE CANAL MESS.
We are told from Washington by
those who are in position to know that
Chairman Shonts and Chief Engineer
Stevens will resign If Congress should
direct the Isthmian canal to be built
on the sea-level plan. They have given
the balance of the children In the yard
to understand that If they can’t have
their way they won't play.
But the man In the Wlilte House
who wields the big stick and "(loos
things” 1b expected to make the naugh
ty chairman and chief engineer happy
by producing a deadlock between the
two houses of CongreBB and building
a high-level canal on hiB own author
ity. He has been doing things that
way and doesn’t hesitate to assume
authority In time of emergency.
The canal project Is Indeed In a
pretty mess.
It will now make little difference
whether Congress resolves on a -plan
or not In the next two or three years,
If the progress mado since tbits gov
ernment undertook the work Is to bo
the normal in the time to come.
We paid the Trench company $40,-
000,000 for 30,000,000 cubic yards cf
completed excavation; we have since
then oxpended over $30,000,000, and
have excavated 1,000,000 cubic yards,
At this rate the whole $190,000,000
appropriated to the work will be gone
before It shall be Imperative to finally
decide upon the type of canal to be
constructed.
The $110,000,000 or so remaining, on
a unit basis of $30, would suffice only
to oxcavate 4,000,000 more culjlc yards,
which would be a mere scratch In the
surface.
ganda, “the great national’Independ-
ent!” -.
By attacking the leaders lot the
Democratic party they attract Repub-
(lean and Populist opponents, and thon
they make a plea—a demand—that
these shall vote In the Democratic
primary.
Isn’t it a sweet-scented mess!
Doesn’t It smell to the very heavens!
What business has HIrston In a
Democratic primary? Why should he
be allowed to marshal the white Re
publicans In his district, and; to use
his own words written down; and
printed In the Atlanta Journal—“ask
them to ‘do as I am going to do In the
coming Democratic primary, to sup
port for governor the Honorable Hoke
Smith."
This attempt to turn the Democratic
party over to Its enemies Is getting
to be vary brazen.
The nnpudence of the thing Is with
out a parallel In political history.

Here’s some senatorial gossip that
comes to us through the New Orlenns
Statos; “Apparently there Is a good
deal of bud blood left In the United
Statos Senate as a result of the pro
longed fight over the rate bill. Dolll-
ver and Aldrich no longer speak when
they meet. Bally and Bacon barely
recognize oach other, and Bailey Is at
swordB’ points with' his colleague, Cul
berson. Both Bacon and Culberson
are reported bitterly Jealous of the
fame which Bailey has achieved, and
throughout, the long fight they both
worked to bring him to defoat. Mor
gan, Pettus and the old-line Southern
Senators hnve broken with the young
er element In 'their party and Knox
and Spooner are bitterly hostile to
the White House. It Is a pretty fight
as It stands, as Sir Lucius O’Trlgger
would say, but It Is considerably more
Interesting to the participants than It
Is to tho country at large, which does
not care much for personal animosi
ties."
If
One fact very apparent to those who
aee things as they are In politics Is
that counties In the state that were
"carried” by this or that gubernatorial
candidate early last fall or In the be
ginning of the present year, now either
have to be curried again or lost. And
even now the average county is good
missionary ground for either of the
candidates.
During the month succeeding the
earthquake 418 marriage licenses were
Issued In San Francisco. The highest
number Issued in any preceding mouth
was 400; and the records do not tell
the whole story. It Is estimated by
the, city clerk that at least 300 mar
riages took place in neighboring coun
ties ‘ between residents of San Fran
cisco who fled from the wrecked city;
atid tills would raise the quota to
nearly twice the monthly average.
The action of th(\ Senate In extend
ing the time when the Free Alcohol
- bill shall go Into operation until Janu
ary ii 1907, will probably meet the
'1'' aSaent of the House. Time Is needed
to make the necessary provision for
- enforcing the denaturing processes
under proper supervision of Interna!
revenue officials and for allowing the
1 makers of wood alcohol to adjust their
business to the new conditions, when
their product will be mainly used to
so adulterate the grain alcohol as to
make it unfit for use as a beverage
or for medicinal purposes.
The Atlanta Journal-Hoke Smith
Program.
From the Macon Telegraph.
Mr. W. M, HIrston, as will be seen
by the following, is an out-and-out Re
publican, without any frlllB, and he Is
also a Democrat Pro Tern.
In 1904 he was the Republican can
didate for Congress In the Eighth Dis
trict, and he clnlms to have received
qulto a number of white Republican
votes, and to these he appeals now "to
do" as he "Ie going to do” in "the com
ing Democratic primary, TO SUP
PORT FOR GOVERNOR THE HON-
ORABLE HOKE SMITH!" But let
him speak for himself:
Elberton, Ga„ May 23, .1906.
To the Editor .of The Journal;
In your Sunday edition of May 20th
you represent mo as saying on the oc
casion of my Introduction to the vice-
president that I was the only man, the
only white mnn, absolutely, in the
Eighth Congressional District, that
voted for Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Fair
banks. Now this Is not what I said,
and I aril sure that the very kind and
affable .reporter who was present on
the'occasion did not Intentionally mis
represent me. I did say to the vice-
president that I was absolutely the
only white man that voted for him in
the city of Elberton. Out of five or
six hundred white votes polled at this
place, 1 was the only white man voting
for the Republican nominees. I make
this correction In Justice to the other
brave, courageous and patriotic white
men In tho Eighth Congressional Dis
trict. who not only supported tho na
tional standard bearers of Republican
ism, but who so loyally and enthusi
astically supported me. And I want,
to thank my friend, Mr. Carl H. Ver-
ner, for making n correction of the
statement himself. Their support for
the national Republican ticket and my
self shall always be a green spot In
the garden of my memory, and I now
ask them to do as I am golnq to do in
the coming Democratic primary, to
support for governor the Honorable
Hoke Smith.
Take the obligation, however long,
Iron-clad It may bp, and aid Georgia In
emancipating herself from corporation
domination and partisan ring rule.
Respectfully,
W. M. HIRSTON.
