The Georgia legislature will convene
next Wednesday, June 27.
The "Kentucky Home-Coming Week'
has proved to be a great advertisement
for the Blue Grass State. -
Chairman J. J. Holloway, of the
Populist Executive Committee of
Georgia, has Issued a call for a con
vention of the Populists of the state
at Atlanta on thp Fourth of July,' and
-with the call 1b an address of some
length'to the PopullBts of the state.
Those who want to read the official
document will And It in the Atlanta
Journal of this date.
They are making ^ fight on one of
the candidates tor govornor In Texas
because he,voted for state prohibition
seventeen years ago; but the Charles
ton News and Courier goes to the
. Texan's rescue * with the suggestion
that "a man can make amends for a
great deal of prohibition excess la
seventeen years."
"Old Folks Home Week" la Ken
tucky Is a thing of the past, aud It Is
reported on reliable authority that the
reserve Btock of the "best und purest
on earth” was not exhausted, nor did
any ox-Kentucklan fall to demonstrate
to the satisfaction of his mother state
that capacity Is a matter of birth and
-not acquirement.
Hump McWhorter’s lottor to the
Athens Banner Is about the straight-
CBt, hardest blow that has yet been
dealt to Candidate Hoke Smith since
the latter has been trying to ride Into
the office of governor by trying to
make the people believe that the state,
under . a Democratic ndmlnlat rut Ion
elected by the people, Is going to tho
bow-wows.
Mamma and the girls are packing up
for the sumpier outing, while pupa has
had last summer's suit nicely cleaned
and pressed, sent the old shoos to tho
cobbler for a new half-sole, and now
prepares to stick hts nose to tho grind
stone for the summer's joyful round.
But papa Is a hero, and doesn't mind.
He's used to It, and besides, everybody
expects it of him.
Rhode Island is a very small state,
but she seems to be about the biggest
thing in the upper house of the United
States congress. Another case of the
tale wagging the dog, the same not be
ing said because, of lack of due respect
tor either Senator Aldrich or the most
august legislative body on the face of
the earth, as the senate Is fond of
calling itself.
LET WARNER HILL GO TO THE
PEOPLE.
Under this caption the Macon Tele
graph of today says:
"The Telegraph printed In Ita Sun
day Issue Hon. Warner Hill's reply to
the attacks that have been made upon
him as a Railroad Commissioner, and
as a member of the State Democratic
Executive Committee by kon. Hoke
Smith.
"With the personal quantity that en
ters'Into this controversy we have
nothing to do, but we wish to direct
especial attention to his positive dec
laration confirming the repeated
charge that The Telegraph has made
—confirming the position taken by
his colleagues on the commission-
and confirming the position taken by
two previous commissions—that the
port rate domand made by the Atlanta
freight bureau—the lHsue which put
that bureau’s attorney in the race for
govornor — Is -a plain open-and-shut
game to give Atlanta wholesale mer
chants the whip-handle over all the
wholesale merchants between Atlanta
and the sea.’ As put by the bureau
torrltory to the sea.’
“Evory merchant between Atlanta
and the sea ought to understand this
scheme. Tho whole of the campaign,
for governor by the attorney of the
Atlanta Freight Bureau Is predicated
upon tho one main Issue. The Atlanta
Journal announced at the start — a
year ago — that that was the 'single
Issue.’
"Warner Hill has spoken to the peo
ple of this scheme none too soon. He
Is a state official—a Democratic of
ficial—and he and his administration
of his office havo boftn attacked vigor
ously and bitterly. He Is an honest
man and a good speaker. He ought
•to toko the stump ‘from Atlanta to
tho - sea,' and discuss this question
face to face with the people. They
have been misled about It—many of
thefn—In spite of the fact that tho
Telegraph has been telling them tho
truth about it from the start."
The suggestion of The Telegraph
that Hon. Warner Hill go to the peo
ple and meet the Issue that has been
brought Into the present state cam
palgn by the attacks of one of the
gubernatorial candidates upon the
Railroad Commission, of which Mr.
Hill is now the chairman, is timely,
and The Herald rises to "second the
motion."
A campaign of education on the sub
ject of railroad rates has never been
so much needed in Georgia as lt Is
today, and If the people are ever
brought to a clear understanding of
what the Atlanta Freight Bureau has
boon attempting to have tin- Railroad
Commission do “to extend Atlanta's
trade and territory 1 to the sea"—the
Atlanta way of presenting the "port
rate” question—there will be an awak
ening throughout all Middle Georgia
and South Georgia. Commissioner
Warner Hill Is well qualified for ho
Important work of conducting such a
campaign of education, and Inasmuch
us he and the commission have been
assailed by one of the gubernatorial
candidates before the people, he would
be Justified In taking the stump to de
fend htniBelf and his colleagues.
To the hustings, Mr. Hill. The peo
ple will gladly hear you.
OHOl
Hist! Aha! Oho! Tho worm has
turned at last. Hump McWhorter,
who has been the subject of repeated
attacks from Candidate Hoke Smith
since the latter launched his cam
paign tor the governorship, has at
last taken notice of his persecutor,
aud ho doesn't fall to score. In a let
ter addressed to the Athens Banner,
Mr. McWhorter shows that Hoke
Smith, who has stated in one of tils
speeches that he would retire from
the race If McWhorter supported him,
had a very different opinion of him
as recently as 1904. Mr. McWhorter
now makes public a letter addressed
to him by Hoke Smith In May. 1904,
asking for a personal conference with
hlat "on a subject that will be of mu
tual Interest to us." This, it will he
remembered, was during the time
when Hoke Smith and tho Atlanta
Journal were raising so much sand
aud noise In Georgia in the Interest
of the candidacy of Judge Alton li.
Parker for the Democratic nomination
for the presidency, and McWhorter
now produces this letter from Smith
and explains thnt the latter was after
a Job from Parker, and Informed him
(McWhorter)', ns he also Informed
others who mentioned it to him (Mc
Whorter) that if Parker was elected
he (Smith) expected to bo appointed
attornoy-goneral.
And McWhorter goes on to show
that the man who Is now denouncing
him so bitterly os a corporation attor
ney and a man to be shunned, sought
his help to get an office In 1904^—just
a few days before the meeting of the
State Democratic convention — Sic-
Whorter then being, as now, a mem
ber of the State Democratic commit
tee. >
And so Hoke was only seeking an
office for himself then, as now.
Prof. David C. Barrow, for a num
ber of years a member of the faculty
of tho State University, was elected
Chancellor of the University by the
trustees at their, meeting Monday
afternoon.
Judge Griggs and the Speakership.
From the Atlanta News.
Hon. James M. Griggs, congressman
from the Second District of Georgia,
passed through Atlanta last night on
his way to Mllledgevllle, where he Is
today delivering the commencement
address and Is orator of the day at the
Georgia Military College. Judge
Griggs arrived In Atlanta at 3:55
o’clock yesterday afternoon and left
during the evening for Macon, where
he spent the night conferring with
some of his South Georgia friends and
business associates. He went on to
Mllledgevllle early this morning and
will spend the'day in that city. To
night he goes to Savannah to partici
pate In the funeral obsequies of Con
gressman Rufus E. Lester, who died
In Washington Saturday night as a
result of Injuries sustained by falling
through a skylight of his hotel. Judge
Griggs will remain In Savannah to
morrow and then go to his home In
Dawson, Ga„ where he will be until
Sunday, on which day he will return
to Washington to resume his duties in
the House of Representatives on Mon
day morning.
Judge OrlggB Is chairman of the Na
tional. Democratic Congressional Com
mittee, and he has already begun the
work of an active campaign for Demo
cratic control of the next House of
Representatives. He expresses great
hope that the Democrats may possibly
be able to overcome the Republican
majority in the House and take charge
of that body on March 4th next. He
feels greatly encouraged over the out
look and thinks that the recent dis
closures throughout the country, in
volving the trusts and grafting sys
tems, will have a marked effect on the
Democratic campaign. He thinks the
people are aroused throughout the
United States and that they Intend to
resent the misrule of the Republican
party, and enthrone the Democratic
organization in thp House of Repr#
sentatlves.
At any rate, a strong and vigorous,
campaign will be made by the Demo
cratic congressional committee, and
Judge Griggs, will devote the entire
summer and early fall months to thi
great and responsible work. He hai
already engaged suitable quarters for
the committee at the Hoffman House
In New York city, where he will be
located after the adjournment of Con
gress, until the campaign ends in No
vember. It Ib stated that ample finan
cial support has been promised the
Democratic organization and that the
committee wlIL be in good condition
tb make an aggressive, effective and
vigorous fight all along the line. While
lt is true lt will be very difficult to
overcome the large Republican major
ity In the House, lt Is confidently ex
pected by Judge Griggs and leading
Democrats In Washington that from
40' to 75 seats may be taken from the
Republican congressmen and given to
Democrats, and It Is the strong liopo
that even the unprecedented majority
on the Republican side will be wiped
out and the Democrats be put In the
position of authority.
While Judge Griggs declines to dis
cuss this phase of* the situation, It Is
a recognized fact that if he succeeds
In overcoming the Republican major
ity in the House and turning lt into a
Democratic stronghold, as chairman Of
the National Democratic Congression
al Committee, he will be the strongest'
candidate In the House for the speak
ership to succeed Speaker Cannon.
Judge Griggs has long been, regarded
as one of the most able Democratic
members of the House for the speak
ership, and he has many friends who
will Insist that he be elected to that
position of honor, In case the House
Is Democratic. This fact will increase
the Georgia Interest In the congres
sional campaign, hs Judge Griggs has
thousands of ardent friends and ad
mirers In this state who will be very
glad to see him elevated to the most
powerful legislative office In the world
today.-
