J. Harris beat Hardwick, with otfiers In the race?" “Has Hardwick any real solid strength ’» “Will the national administration endorse and support Mr. Harris?” These are only a few of the ques. tlon asked whenever men gather to discuss politics. Atlanta being the political Mecca for all Georgians, It is there that the most politics—sometimes, too, the strangest, queerest, most Impossible politics—are talked. Officeholders In the capital and those all-knowing, professsional politicians In Atlanta, are however, rather puz zled now. They don't know exactly whore they ai^e and what’ really what. They hear reports coming from all sections of Georgia about the Increas ing popularity of Harris , and the steadily diminishing unpopularity of Hardwick, and they—the professional politicians, who aro not for Harris, and wont’ b e,until they are absolute ly suro he Is a winner—are doing their level best to discount these re ports. I But the summary is this, gleaned from tho political chaff that ran through the mill during a recent stay In Atlanta: Tardwlck Is not near as strong ns he was six months ago. Only in counties north of Griffin does be possess any genuine strength. With tho exception of two coun- jti|5d fti southeast Georgia—these being Emanuel and Tatnall. , j i iThere Is a distinct antl-Hard- 1 wick sentiment all over Georgia. 0 : Six months hence it Is believed that It will be actually dangerous for Hardwick to give expreselon * bn the Htunip to sentiments he has some Theodore Roosevelt, and yet he I? a man that is not easily placed or defined. In the various discussions about him, there has been an effort to analyze hi3 nature, to define him as a man, to as sign him to a definite place In history. For Instance, the Baltimore Sun says: • Roosevelt Is a great deal of a blend,' a great deal of a composite picture." I And no wonder, when -,ou consider tho man’s ancestry. There Is In him a curious mixture of Scotch, German, French, .English and Dutch. Among his ancestors, the descent from whom may he traced in a direct line, are the celebrated Douglas family of Scotland, Robert I, “The Bruce,” Charlemange, Alfred the Groat, Wlttklnd and Wil liam the Conqueror. Roosevelt's paternal ancestors had lived in this country eight generations before he was born. His mother was eight generations removed from Scot land. This woman was Martha Bul lock, born on the family plantation In uary, we read: This Is the coldest month of the year In Virginia, with a mean tem perature of thirty-eight degreee. For this reason, it Is a month when thousands of homes In Vir ginia are sealed tightly to keep out the cold, and Is In consequence a month of bad colds, of grippe, of.. pneumonia and of consumption. An open window Is better than an open grave. A stitch In the underwear may save a stitch in the side. Disease seldom comes in a win dow that is open for air.
