Atlanta.—Governor Hardwick in his
campaign last .year gave the people
to understand that he would Institute
a general house cleaning in th^
state eapitol when he took office.
After a manner ot speaking thtfse
campaign speeches made by Mr.
Hardwick, who is very effective on
the stump, were like the smell of 14W
meat In the nostrils of hungry lions.
Candidates for the legislature ran
on “sweep ’em out" platforms which
further aroused their constituents to
a thirst fdr blood. At the Democratic
state convention in Macon last Octo
ber, when Governor Hardwick was
nominated, a gift of a broom was pre
sented to him with the ominous in
scription “Make a (Mean Sweep.’* AI
similar broom was presented to I1T11
when he was inaugurated.
Under these circumstances
The proposal to abolish the depart
ment of commerce and labor was kill
ed at the outset by adverse aetiog of
the committees to which the bill was
referred.
The abolition of the board of pub
lic welfare may be forced through,
since it is small, its work Is misunder
stood or not known of, and It has no
political influence and only a J6w
friends, a group of men and womfen
who are interested Id welfare work>
The board of public welfare may
go into the cage, a small piece of
meat, 'to satisfy (he roaring of (be
lions in their thirst for blood.

break through nml show tile public

Hence an attack upon the depart
ment of agriculture, with demand
tor a probe of thp administration or
Commissioner J. .1. Brown; an attack
upon, the highway department, with a
demand tor an Investigation ot the
overhead expenses and ot the depart
ment’s distribution of the motor ve

S ent of commerce and labor, with a
imand .for its abolition; an attack
upon the board ot public welfare, with
a demand tor Its abolition.
One Attack Collapses.
The attack upon the department ol
agriculture seems to have broken
down. Senntor L. C. Brown's failure
to appear betor? the senate commit
tee on agriculture, at Its meeting
yesterday afternoon, and present evi
dence substantiating his charges
against Commissioner Brown, was
taken by the committee to mean that
his , charges wilt not he pushed any
further.

Mkritound themselves confronted at
evjrrTufn with facts which they can
dbt’lpVexeomo or get around. . Al
though they charged thnt the over
head expenses of the department
were extravagant and excessive, they
have not been able to show that the
department spent over six per cent,
was attributed primarily to tho high
costs of construction.
