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.
