The questions to bo considered u paramount
In tho election of a governor for Georgia ln Oc-*
tohor era question of practical bualnta rather
polities. For this reason it lithe doty ol tho
party and Its membership to think seriously
I upon them And to seek carefully for the best p
man upon whose ■boulders to impose the
weight of duties and responsibilities Incumbent
upon the chief magistrate of the State. In Geor
gia, at least, the party can afford to safely turn
from the consideration of mere dogma* tnd
platitudes aud give its best attention to thel
purely business aspects of a certain Democratic
I administration. The times are most suspicions
for the exercise of tbst practical statesmanship
I which renders its most eminent service in the
economical conduct of the public affair* and in
th# reduction of the burdens th# people have
to bear. In Georgia surely there U much to be
accomplished in those directions.

that there is no sd vac tags to either on ths score

to naw questions of an administrative and leg

with a well-digested study of the constitution

he would give the Stato a wise and Intelligent

were the “matters” that Stephe.*.. wrote to
Felton about, when he said "you managed
matters admirably at Atlanta lookiDg as I
conceived to the beat interest* of tho
State?" If that sentence doe* not Indi
cate complicity pray (dl me what it doee
mean, llie truth of it i-, the old man is
in his dotage and has fallen Into the hands
of Joe Urovin and Colquitt, who propose to
contione the present renims and defeat
anybody but their candidate.
It la necessary now for Felton to show
apparent di«*ati*iactioii with Mr. Steph-
ta or perhape the Democrn.*y might uot
take him. Felton is no fool. He did not
decline the nomination for governor and
torn it over to Stephens without knowing
where “matters" could bo managed. A*
soon as the Democracy commits itself to
to Mr. Stephens th#independents wDlehow
