,• THE MACON DAILY TELKGflAPHi ' HHtJBSDAY MORNINCF, DECEMBER 17, 190S MARSHAL WHilt MS HEARD NOTHING VET . Marshal George F. Whlta ha* not yet heard anything from Washington ton* cerning his appointment. it Is probablo that nothing will bo done h any of the appointments until holidays. In (lie meantime the finding. t — friends In the country than ho thought of. Here Is something from the Amerlcus Tlmes*ltecorder that lie ap predates highly: being made to prevent the (White, well known throughout the south ern district of Georgia us one of the most courteous and affable of men. faith ful. as fdr.as the public can Judge, in the performance of Ills official duties, and at the same time ulways considerate In his treatment of those who come into several years he has held the office the marshal lias met many people in this section and In no instance that we nro aware has the impression he has left been other than favorable. Charges that on the face are of a most ridiculous nature are reported to have been made, growing out of political dif ferences In the white republican ranks in Georgia. The accusation that the marshal actually “swiped" some hot?! spoons as souvenirs while on the western trip to the Denver convention Is too ludi crous to do more than raise a loud laugh. If nothing more serious than charges like ! this can be alleged against Marshal White thr.se desiring his official scalp are apt to find themselves occupying an unenvia ble position. Public sentiment never en dorses attacks that emanate from per sonal spite unless they are based on serious misdoing, and have a genuine and Indisputable basis of fact on Which to rest. Silly assaults arising from politi cal spleen da the peeler* more hgrnj. as a geiftr&l thine, than they Jo tne AC cased. If Marshal White's enemies have to re sort to “spoon" stories his reappointment would seem assured. M^kes the Liver Lively.
