He has stepped on It with Impunity,
and eet up his own wilt as a higher

and overlord In all things, great and

Taft declares that U la hla purpose.

wort h. the son-in-law 6f Roosevelt,

What a frightful threat this Is, to
"clinch" "My Polloles!" Whst a stu
pendous menace this Is, to prepare the
way for the return of the Rough

It be the worst ths country has

bountiful crops selling at top notch
prices. Thera were no economic rea
sons for ths panic. The smash was
caused by tha swinging of ths Hlg
Stick, and tho little big sticks ham

The election of Rryan will simply
dispose of the Rig Stick. It will stop
that Orsat Evil. It will huah th^
Big Noise, it will displace tho

If any business man Is afraid of
Bryan ho may find consolation In a
republican Senate, ths complexion of
which cannot bo changed during the
n< xt four year*. A President Bryan
and a Republican Senata would make
a stand-off, ao to speak, and tho
country would have four year* of
peace for recuperation. We would
gf t rid of the Big 8t!ck "policies"
and get In pneltlon to win a Demo

and Senate. Bryan la pledged to one
term.
Let aa ant I-Bryan Democrat look

Locally, it marks the culmination of
one of the most astonishing political
revolutions ever known In Dixie. It
substitutes for Mr. Hoke Smith and
his antl-rallroad propaganda. “Little

The Georgia Election.
Washington Post.
Tho election of Joseph M. Brown
to be governor of Georgia by an over
whelming majority recalls the mors
exciting contest In the primaries when
he waa named aa tha democratic gu
bernatorial nominee agalnat Hoke
Smith.
The victory of Brown brings him
Into notice as a representative man
of conservative force In the south,
who In the midst of radical agitation
has remained true to his principles and
has maintained a conservative atti
tude toward tne railroads.
During the campaign for ths nomi
nation Brown was declared to be of
the reactionary school, -aa compared
with his competitor. In so far aa he re
fused to. join In the emotional crusade
against railroads which was whirling
through the south In consonance with
ths rabid sentiments Initiated else
where. He held tenaciously to his
view that corporations which ara con
ducted honestly and properly should
receive the protection of the law and
the same legislative consideration as Is
the due of all cltlxena.
The success of 'Brown tn Georgia
may be a forerunner of other triumphs
for the forces opposed to hysterical
radicalism In the south.
The people of the south appear to
have made the discovery that while
thorough prosecution and severe pen
alties for lawbreaker* among corpor
ations are well for the state, perse-
cut Iona born of prejudice and fend*
tlrlsm will not aid tn development and
progress. Georgia Is to be congrat
