nn example which other states will As to ’’LUtls Joe” Brown, he Is
doubtless soon follow in the local \ the strongest character in Georgia
quite proper to inaugurate a politi
cal campaign In Georgia anti! there
was some definite assurance as to
when a vacancy la the executive offi
ce and there was no reason why can
didates should be charging up and
down the state trying to “disturb
the political peace” and drawing far
mers and business men away from
their private affairs. Pope Brown
agreed with 'him. Pope, did Hot see
any use in precipitating the cam
paign until it was known when Gov-
ernor Smith was going to, step down
and out For a few days Pop# re
mained In the background, but when
be heard that Dick Russell was la
one corner of the state talking “local
option”, he felt like It was tithe for
him to get out and “run some more’
So the way he went. Pope did not
have the courage to do what he
thought ought to be done.
Pope seems to pay too rauca atten
tion to Dick. When Dick said the
liquor question is the issue. Pope
said “It ought not to be, but if you
are gong to make it the issue, I at
with you; I'll take the other side.
Pope even went as far as to say
that he had always been a local op-
tlonlst, but that he was willing to
take whatever side Dick wanted him
to, or words to that effect. It was
like two children at school playing
base. The stronser one says; “You
take that one and I’ll take this one,
and the weaker one consents. Good
men, honest and moral, are often
weak. Somebody after Pope too*
the “prohibition side," hame him say
that he would favor 4 per cent alco
hol in beer, which is much more than
present law allows. Several
years ago. some smart railroad law
yers persuaded him to reduce the tax
'values of the Atlantic Coast Line
about a quarter of a million dollars
less than the railroad had given in
under oath. Then. the ease with
which Pope allowed himself “confer
red" out of the gubernatorial races
oa two or fTiree occasions shows that
however good and honest he may be,
he is not strong enough to hold his
own against the “interests” that will
come against him in the governor’s
office.
To be candid about “Plain Dick 1
Russell, we doubt if a great many
people In Georgia look with any de
gree of seriousness npon his race.
The people do not often vote for one
man for office while he Is clinging
to another office with a vice-like
grip. Especially is this true when
the candidate is of the caliber of the
present one. If there were anything
in the “issue” which he is trying to
ride nnd if there were anything in
his personality to attract voters to
him above others, the very fact that
he Is holding his place upon
court of appeals while making the
race for anrtuer offico would defeat
him. “Plain Dick” is not an extra
ordinary man. He is known as
standing candidate for office In Geor
gia—he Is the old horse that becomes
lively when the bell taps. He in
jures himself by criticising the 1
and boasting of their non-enforce
ment while remaining upon the high
bench, and he lowers the dignity of
that court by his present attitude.
The people have takeu his measure

Columbus Enquirer-Sun: “Judge
Russell’s, local option plank will not
be approved by the voters of the
state, nor will Pope Brown’s belated
stand on state prohibition win him

view of this subject. The prohibi
tion question aas no place In this

but a giant In strength of intellect and
moral character. He Is too honest
to “play politics” with great ques

politics. He Is too intelligent to play
