Interesting State Political Gossip.
Atlanta, Ga., March 12.—It is sur
prising the extent to which the talk
of a “compromise candidate” for Gov
ernor persists, as if it were essential
that there be a compromise candidate
in order to avoid a heated race between
Gov. Brown and ex-Gov. Hoke Smith.
From what was considered a joke
when it was first mentioned, the sugges
tion is said to have brought Commis
sioner of Agriculture T. G. Hudson to
the point of serious consideration of the
matter. Mr. Hudson will not talk about
it for publication, but it is understood
he freely discusses it with his friends,
and the belief is growing that he would
welcome the opportunity to make the
race, if he could do so on the under
standing that he was a compromise
candidate.
Then, Chairman H. Warner Hill, of
the Railroad Commission,’ has been
prominently mentioned in this connec
tion. He has not only been mentioned,
but it is understood he has received let
ters from many friends over the State
suggesting his candidacy. Mr. Hill is
not discussing the matter, but it is sta
ted by his friends that, while he would,
perhaps, like to be Governor, he would
not care to enter into a scramble for the
office.
Again, there is Comptroller-General
Wright, who has been several times
spoken of as a possible “compromise”
candidate. Capt. Wright has poured
several buckets of cold water over the
suggestion; he ie a candidate for re-
election'Va Comptroller-General, he
says, and has never once thought of
looking even in the direction of the
Governorship.
The discussion of these names, how
ever, which is kept up constantly here
and there, is indicative of the persist-
enoe of the compromise candidate pro
posal; but where it originated no one
appears to know.
Despite all the talk, It is a pretty safe
prediction that none of it has come from
Gov. Brown or his close political friends
—neither the Governor nor they are
saying anything just at present.
A conversation with Gov. Brown on
the subject these days would read
something like this;
"Governor, are you going to make
the race for re-election?”
“I think the people of Georgia are
tired of politics and want a rest from
it. So far as I am concerned I propose
to let them have it.”
“How long a rest?”
“Well, that depends. By the way,
did you know they used to make coffee
out of the golden rod bloom during the
war?”
And,then the Governor will tell you
more about the dormant and undevel
oped resources of Georgia in five min
utes than you ever heard before, and
you will go away forgetting that you
failed to find out anything about hiB
political intentions.
Notwithstanding which, those close to
Gov. Brown state with a positivenesa,
apparently of knowledge, that he will
run ugain thiB year and that his an
nouncement will be forthcoming “in
due course," if anyone knows what
that means.
Gov. Brown’s friends say that accord
ing to hie view, neither he nor anyone
else has the right to agree upon a
"compromise candidate” and offer him
to the people of Georgia; that is a ques
tion for the people, and not for a few
men, to decide whom they want for
Governor.
Taking it for granted that the Gov
ernor will be in the race—and it is a
safe bet—the question arises, will that
force ex-Gov. Smith to run even against
his will? Each horn of the dilemma has
its supporters.
It appears that the opinion in some
quarters that the talk of a “compromise
candidate” grows, in some way, out of
the fact that the ex-Governor does not
want to make the race, but fears that
he may be forced to do so, if his recent
ly successful adversary makes another
try at it.
If Gov. Brown should keep out of it,
that would let ex-Gov. Smith out and
he could quietly await his opportunity
to make the race for the United States
Senate. But if Gov. Brown runs, would
it be as easy for him to do the Barae
thing? SThere is the political nut to bo
cracked this year. »
In the meantime ex-Gov. Smith ie
about to go to the Pacific coast for a
month's trip. He is taking a vacation,
but is scheduled to make several
speeches, one of them at Los Angeles.
There is little question that he can do
so in perfect safety. He will return
about May 1, and Gov. Brown may bo
counted upon to hold his silence until
that time or longer.
It is not recorded, however, that they
have entered into any agreement on the
subject.
There is already material for Some
pretty lively politics in Georgia this
year in the race for the State Treasur-
ership, a prospective race for Prison
Commissioner, and enough Congres
sional fights to keep more than half the
districts of the State pretty welljstirred

“Covering the First Story.”
Because of the wide difference of
opinion relative to the numerical record
of the apple-consumption of our first
parents, the statistical editor sent the
cub reporter out to trail the truth to its
lair in the Garden of Eden, back it up
in a corner and choke the exact facts
out of it—with this highly edifying re-
Bult;
“It could be said Eve 8 and Adam 2,
a total of 10; also that Eve 8 and Adam
8 too, total 16; but If Evo 8 and Adam
82, tho tjotal would bo 90. Now if Eve
81 and Adam 812, tho total would be
893; then if Eve 81 lBt and Adam 812,
the total would be 1623; or again, if
Eve 814 Adam and Adam 81242 oblige
Eve the total would be 82,066; though
it is admitted Eve 814 Adam, Adam if
he 8181242 keep Eve company, total 8,-
182,056. But this is all wrong. Eve,
when she 81812 many, and probably felt
Berry for it, and Adam, in order to re
lieve her grief, 812, therefore Adam, if
ho 81814242fy Eve’s depressed spirits.
Hence both ate 81,896,866 apples.”
The statistical editor is now in a pad
ded cell.

Newspaper Advertising.
St. Albans (Vt) Messenger.
One more Franklin countyj business
concern decides to forego advertising
wagons, billboards, store-windows and
other similar expensive and ineffective
methods of advertising and will employ
space in newspapers hereafter. They
will all come to it in time. Advertising
pays if the man that has something to
eell so regulates his advertising as to
convince other people that it is worth
buying. All the substitutes for news
paper advertising can be easily avoided
or disregarded by the very people the
advertiser tries hardest to attract— 1*0
man or woman that can afford to buy.
They do not stand gaping at billboards,
they do not take in handbills, and they
will not bother with circulars in the
mail because they are too busy. But
their old friond, the newspaper, ie ta
ken into the inmost privacy of the fam
ily circle, it is discussed at the break
fast table and at the supper, it is read
at leisure in the evening, and its pages
are scrutinized with tho interest bom
of long habit and discriminating taste.
An advertisement in that newspaper
gocB into the family circle and cannot
be excluded. It is welcome because it
is a part of something else that is wel
come, and it goes there at the very
time when the occasional domestic eco
nomical council takes place. There is
no substitute for newspaper advertising
except loss of business.

discouraged look on her face. “ I ain’t

never learn to spell. The teacher keeps
changing the words on me all the
time.”
