Col, S. G. McLendon of this city spoke
litis week before the state agricultural
society on “The Oomdiercial Value of
Popular Ignorance.” Col.* Mclendon
evidently created a sensation by his
scholarly talk. Tin Hawkinsville cor
respondent of the Atlanta Journal writes
us follows. * Hon. 8. G. McLendon mad3
a remarkable speech, which may mean
the beginning of a McLaurin campaign
in Georgia with the Gubernatorial chair
as the stake.
At its conclusion Hon. Martin Calvin
secretary of the society took the floor
and moved a vote of thanks, which was
given with enthusiasm. Mr. Calvin in
making the motion said tho society had
not listened to such an utterance in fifty
years..
Mr. McLendon won a great orator!
cal victory. He spoko with ease and
completely captivated his audience
Thongh thecourthouso was (lacked and
tho iieat very great, lie received marked
attention for an hoar, after the conven
tion had been listening to speeches all
day.
Mr. McLcudou made no political allu
sions. His tone and argument wero
those of a platform locturor rather than
a politician, and nobody seemed to real
ize that a heavy dose of protectionist
argument of .tho Joseph Chamberlain
variety was being administered with
consummate skill toacoustituoncy which
has been reared on tho idea that protec
tion is the nemo of folly which has been
used to the advantage of other sections
chiefly by a (lolitical party with which
the southern people havo a long score to
settle, and that this saiuo protective
policy has fostered tho growth ofmo*
uo)>oly and class legislation.
While 1)0 per cont of tho audieuce
wore goiug iuto ruptures over Mr. Mc
Lendon's speech a few thoughtful ouos
began to woudor what it all meant. Mr.
McLoudou. tho apostle and pioneer of a
now school of thought and a now sort of
(Kditics, backed by tho rapidly growing
manufacturing interests of Georgia and
the Piedmont region? In other words
is this a recrudescence of McLaurinisiu
more formidable form than that
which caine to so inglorious an end two
years ago, when tho senator who started
it went down in overwhelming defeat?
Mr. McLcudou strenuously denies
any political object in making this
speech, uud declares it wus merely au
academic discussion jof an economic
question from the broad view point of
the world’s coinmoreo, with a practical
