The legislature of 1902—of which I
was an obscure member—saw fit to
change the date of meeting of the gen
era! assembly from the fourth Wed
nesday In October to the fourth Wed
nesday In June—which was clearly
within Its provtnea. as shown above—
bv simple statute, no constitutional
change being required.
But the constitution does provide
that the governor shall serve for ft
term of two years, and that he shall
be sworn In before the central
eembly. The passage of tbs afore
mentioned statute could not in any
way affect the term of servlca of the
governor, or any other state official
of the two-year class—a change of
the constitution—or an amendment
thereto—being necessary for that.
This statutory law went Into effect
Immediately after It* passage, and the
legislature convened under tt In regu
lar session in June. 199S—when had It
been a constitutional amendment (be
ing passed after the election of 1102V
It could not have taken effect until
It. had been passed upon In tha elec
tffm of 1H4. But It was never aub
mltted to the voter* at all—the stat
ute $nlv affecting the time
assembly'* regular convention.
This law could, therefore, have no
effect on the two-year term of the
governor. AM yet. Mr. Terrell, and.
1 am informed, the other state offi
cials who were elected la October.
1901. and sworn In the seme month-
end re-elected In 1904—did not retire

that should hie aucceeeor altogether

is clear that the legislature must swear

Is a fact that the terms of the retir
ing (or old) legislators expired In Oc
tuber. 1906, along with Mr. Terrell’s
—aa they, too, went Into office iq Oc
tober, 1900-2-4, even years along with
the govarnor, serving for two years **
per the constitution.
But what Vaa there to prevent Mr.
Terrell calling the newly-elected legis
lature together in extraordinary ses
sion In October or November. 1906, for
the purpose of swearing In the gov
ernor and ena&lng laws for eliminat
ing the hiatus? If the governor had
to be aworn tn in the presence of
the legislature at .a regular session,
(which I could hot now admit), .then
the law of 1902 was clearly and plainly
unconstitutional, and should have been
repealed when tho hiatus was discov?
ered by Mr. Terrell, who took the
oath of office to succeed himself, not
in October, 1904. but In June, 1905.
And If It were the case that a regular
session of the assembly Is necessary
to awear tn the governor and that no
unorganised assembly could be called
In extra session Mu-r{ would be eight
months In ths year—from October to
June—In which this state would be
without a governor and without a leg
Islature in case the governor died In
October of an even year! The presi
dent of the senate, ex-officio lieutenant
governor, would ’have to fill the office
until the legislature convened regular
ly In June, and his term would have
really expired In the October afore
mentioned.
But In spite of opinions to the con
trary, I do not see where this situa
tion could arts*.; for does not the presi
dent of the United States sometimes
convene the natjonal congress In extra
session Immediately or soon after the
4th of March (his Inauguration), and
Is It not the new congress, schodulcd
to meet regularly In December? The
principle la the same.
It la known that Mr. Smith failed to
qualify (the reason is nil) at the ex
piration of Mr s Terrell's ternl In 1904.
but took the oath of office In June.
1907. Now the question arises, does
Mr. 8mlth's term of office explro on
ths first Saturday following the fourth
Wednesday tn October/ 1908. or In
June, 1909? Does he not losafrom hla
term of office the eight months In
which he failed to qualify? And does
this not also apply to the other state
officials? Bear In mind that the state
constitution recognises no reasons or
excuses for violating Its provisions.
Then, by what authority have the
governor, the other state Officials nnd
(if they havel the members of ths
legislature cre^i up. or advanced over
*ielr terms eight months?
If the sheriff-elect of a county falls
to qualify In thirty days, the office Is
declared vacant, and another election
held for the place. The new sheriff
takes the oath, not on January first,
but on March first. When does his
term expire, in March or January two
years later?
The president Is Inaugurated on the
fourth of March. This fa arranged by
what might ba termed ’constitutional
precedent"—the constitution providing
that th# president shall serve for four
years, and ths time fixed by statute
aa ths fourth of March when the In
augurals began. Suppose the presi
dent-elect should be til on the inaugu
ral day. and . could not take the oath
of office till March 10th. doe# he re
tire four years later on March 4th
March 10th?

Striking Agricultural
Exhibits, at the Fair
A Telegraph man wandered through
the fair grounds yssterday soring the
sights, and. of course, ran up against
the many magnificent agricultural dis
plays on exhibition there. He had

cbui uaj. .
A few years ago The Telegraph, lr
will bo remembered, conducted a cam
paign on diversified farming, and gavq
a thousand dollars In cash prizes for
the best yields of wheat. So It was
quite natural that a Telegraph man
on yesterday should have been look
ing for something of special value to
tho fanners to be found among the
many splendid exhibits. .
A great need of Georgia today Is a
winter pasture for cattle, horses and
hogs. By the tqrm "winter pasture**
Is not meant some rank but non-nu-
trltlous cane breake. The winter pas
ture so much needed Is a crop that
will sustain stock and deliver them
up In th* springtime aa sleek and fat
ae they were when the bermuda
meadow got through with them In the
fall. When this winter pasture is
developed, stock-raising will become
popular.
resenting Camden county, is what Mr.
Uodley describes as tho Ideal winter
crop for stock. It Is tho Japanese
sugar cane, which Is as prolific as our
sorghum, and will grow In any cli
mate and soil that wlil produce sorg
hum. Capt. B. D. Lumsdcn, of Bibb,
has made extensive experiments wifh
this enqe. and finds that It thrives in
this county. He also has a large ex
hibit of It at the fair. When once
planted this cane will grow contin
uously without cultivation or reseed
ing. The extreme cold will kill the
tops, but as the cane does not go to
seed, depending upon Its roots for per
petuation It shoots up with the first
sunshine, and stock flourish on the
tender green stalks and foliage.
This cane Is superior to the regular
Georgia enne tn amount of syrup pro
duced to the acre, while Its flavor Is
fully up to the standard of Georgia
enno. Mr. Godley states ' that he
planted two rows, one with Georgia
cane and the other In Japanese cane,
making th# conditions as nearly equal
as possible for the test. The Georgia
cane produced 150 stalks to the row.
while the Japanese variety produced
900 stalks, running about nine feet
high. The quantity of Juice per stalk
Is In favor of th# Georgia can#, but
the cnormou# advantage in number of
stalks make the syrup percentage
about double In favor of th# Japan
ese, The roots flourish and spread,
so that all trace of rows Is lost In
n short time, and the patch becomes
one mass of cano that Is good for man
and beast.
Mr. Godley has five varieties of su
gar cane on exhibition, and he says
he believes the Japanese Is the great
’eat money-maker In the lot.
In this, same display are two bam
boo canes, measuring about I to 2
Inches In diameter and S7 feet long.
These were grown In the yard of Mr.
J. H. 'Banks, on St. Marys Island,
and are equal to the giant variety seen
In the Philippine exhibit at tha World's
Fair.
