THE GOVERNORSHIP,
And Col. McLendon’* Connection With
It, Discussed by tho SavannshIProos
The editor of the Savannah Press.
Hon. Pleasant >. Stovall, always writes
with a sparkling i>en/ In his last issue
he has an article entitled, “Mr. McLen
don of Thomas,” as follows:
Hon. S. Gr McLendon has the knack
of creating a sensation Jevery time he
speaks. } If he were a newspaper m/m he
would he a great «ucce»*, for he has a
catchy, fetching way of saying groat
truths. Some time ago Mr. McLendon
wrote up an article about the state road
which attracted 11 great deal of atten
tion and which led to the belief that he
might enter the gubernatorial race.
Mr. ilcLendon has just delivered ji
speech before the fanners in Hawkins
ville on the •‘Commercial Value of Pop
ular Ignorance ”
We have not seen n connected l^pait
ot Mr. McLendon’s remarks, but he is
always original an: interesting ’ £He
has the courage to say new things wheth
or they are jx>pularor not. When quite
a young man ho got np in the Colquitt
convention in Atlnuta and had tho
boldness to. tell the majority of that
body that it had voted for Colquitt long
enough aud that it they were patriotic
they would withdraw their *caudula?e,
Mr. McLondbn "had the courage ii> 1 1X1
to. confront the Yree silver men and tell
thorn tljnt their platform was rubbish
• and their candidate was hopolesslv doom
ed. He repeated the same warning in
1D0>. Time lias vindicated Mr. Mc
Lendon’s position. The papers nave
commenced talking about Mr» McLen
don as a D0?sibli> caudidate^for govonor
He is a popular man aud an able one.
He is fearless and creative. Ho does
not hesitate to take the unpopular side
when he believes that ho is right.
Mr. McLendon were to go upon the
stump, cither for himself or auy one
else, in tho next gubernatorial race he
would have some lively things to say to
the pcopio. He is not a tune server or
space ftll«r. He is never prolix. When
lie talks ho says something aud when he
shoots he hits the mark.
By the way, the next race for gover
nor seems to be very lively. Already
we see Boykin Wright aud John W.
Akin on the stump before the people.
Unless we arc mistaken Joe Hall is
ttrainieg hi* eyo* in that direction and
Clark Howell is known to have aspira
tions on this line. Indeed, by many Jie
is thought to have started his campaign
already. Then Hon. Pope Brown, of
Pulaski, and Col. J. II. KstiK, of b’avan
na!i, have fnenils who w^nt to see them
in the race and Col. James M Smith,
ot Oglethorpe, “if he can sell hisjand,’
may be persuaded by Editor T. Law
rence Gantt to get into the game.
Whether Mr. McLendon is going to shy
his casto- into the ring or whether he
will enter the lists in behalf of some
other man is doubtful. At .the proper
timo lie will piobably give notice
which side of thisigreat controversy lie
yriU couch his lanfce or draw his blade.”
A TRAGIC OCCURENCE.
Slater of ThomasvfHo Man 1 Loses
Husband by Mtirdef.
Mondays / tlanta papers brought ac
counts of a tragic affair in that city in
which Mr. F. E. Betis formerly of Ma

ted when she learned of it.
