THE SOUTH AND
THE PRESIDENCY
The Comments of the National
Capuital’s Leading Paper on
Hoke Smith’s Candidacy.
(From Washington Star.)
Hoke Smith has decided to stand
in the Georgia primary for- the San
Francisco nomination. His state
should, and probably will, instruct
for him. He is her most distinguish
ed living son. Not yet an old man,
he became a national figure in poli
tics a quarter of a cent'ury ago as
a member of Mr. Cleveland’s second
cabinet. Since then he has served
Georgia as Governor, and is now
serving her- as Senator. In these
several high places he has had to do
with large and important affairs, and
so is reckoned as of Presidential size.
He is as prominent a figure in pub- |
lie life as the South contains.
If Mr. Smith’s name is presented
at the convention, with Georgia’s
influence behind his candidacy, will
other Southern states give him sup
port? No other Southern man is to
day under discussion for the honor.
Mr. Underwood has a fight on his
hands for re-election to the Senate.
Champ Clark is not asking for in
structions from any state, not even
his own. Mr. Smith, then, as matters
now appear, will be the only South
ern man in the field when the ballot
ing begins.
For quite half a century the South
has been the stronghold of the Demo
cratic party. She has furnished the
bulk of the electorial votes for every
one of the Democratic Presidential
tickets in that time. She elected

Grover Cleveland twice, and Wood
row Wilson twice. She is the party’s
main hope for this year. Whatever
i difficulties may ne encountered in the
1 East, or the West, or in the Middle
, country, the South is expected to
’ stand fast —to roll up the usual ma
jorities no matter who may be carry
ing the standard, or what the plat
form contains.
How loyal the South has been to
the party label is shown by the list
of the the Presidential candidates for
whom she has votes. She cared lit
tle for Seymour. She had detested
Greeley for years, politically and
personally. She rather distrusted
Tilden. She admired Hancock as a
brave man. She knew nothing about
Cleveland. She warmed to Bryan be
cause of his wonderful oratory. She
grows orators herself. She was in
different to Parker, and at Baltimore
felt only so-so toward Wilson, al
though he was Southern by birth. But
on election day she plumged for all
of them without hestitation.
For some years there has been
speculation about how much longer
the South, with so many able sons of
her own, wo'uld continue to efface
herself in the matter of the Democ
racy’s highest honor. Will she again
repeat her familiar performance? Or
will she press for recognition at San
Francisco with a son of her own? Is
it not about time? —(adv.)
