HOKE SMITH INAIUIKATKD AS UOTBBNOK OF T1IE EMPIRE STATE III the Presence of a Great Throng - A Strong Inangaral Aildrem. Hon. Hoke Smith, who won such an overwhelming victory in the pri mary last year, wan last Saturday In augurated oh Governor of Georgia, and the Impressive ceremonies were wit nessed by thousands of people. Hon. J. M. Terrell, who will bo known In hlatory as Georgia’s “edu cational Governor" because Of the splendid work he has done for the public and agricultural schools of the state, presented the great seal of the state to his successor, and Governor Smith deliver d a strong Inaugural address, In which he re-afflrmed the promises of his campaign. He re peated hJs denunciation of lobbying, free passes, and the use of money In elections. Especial Interest Is felt throughout the state as to Governor Smith’s final position on the disfranchisement ques tion. which was such a paramount Is sue In the campaign. Here is the plan he favors, and for which hills have been introduced in the legislature and which will doubtless pass, providing for amendment of the constitution: — “The proposed constitutional amend ment Is along the line of the Alaurma law. It provides that a person to register and vote must have all the qualifications now required for that purpose, nnd also belong to some one of the six classes following: “First—All persons who served In any war of the United 8tates, the Con federate States or the state of Geor gia; or “Second- All persons lawfully de scended from any of such soldiers: or “Third All persons of good charac ter who understand the duties and obligations of citizenship; or “Fourth—All persons who can read correctly and who can write correctly when read to them in the English language any paragraph of the con stitution of the United States or the state of Georgia; or “Fifth—Any person who is the own er of forty acres of land on which he lives; or “8ixth- Any person who owns five hundred ($500) dollars worth of prop erty in the state of Georgia ns shown by the tax digest. "The right to qualify under the third provision expires Junuury 1, 1910. The right to qualify under the first and second provisions expires January 1, 1915. “A man who has registered under either the first, second or third of these provisions Is qualified to vote for life, unless ho fails to pay his taxes, commits a crime, or does some act subsequent to his registration which prevents his voting.” For the restriction of railroad mon opolies and the regulation of rates, Governor Smith advocates an Increase In the powers of the State Railroad Commission. Our new Governor, like his pred ecessor, has been an active worker on educational lines, and a good portion of his address was devoted to dis cussion of such matters. He advo cates prompt payment of teachers and a wide extension of normal and pub lic school facilities. “We must not only willingly but joyfully tax our selves for this great work,” says Gov ernor . mlth. In discussing the subject of lynch ing, he significantly says: “The man who breaks a law to punish a crim inal Is himself a criminal. There Is no place in Georgia for rlo:s and mobs." The address was a strong one, and Governor Smith enters upon the du ties of his office under most auspi cious clrcumstanci s. The Standard Joins with all patriotic citizens in the hope that bin administration may ho highly successful. ARAGON NEWS.
