LITTLE HOKE SMITHS
ARE MOST EVERYWHERE
Governor’s Photograph Bill Grows Frightfully Large.
Census Shows 44 In Georgia To Date, With Sev
eral Counties To Hear From.
It Governor Hoke Smith sent a silver
christening cup lo each of his name
sakes In Georgia,he would soon bo on
the.vergetof bankruptcy, and even his
photograph bill Is reachlrg formidable
proportion*.
With nearly 60 lusty namesakes,
some of them girl*, too. In the state of
Georgia, Jt will be a long time before
Governor Smith Is forgotten.
When Governor Smith began his first
campaign for the gubernatorial office
several of his admirers here and there
began naming their children for him.
The governor, to m>v.\v his appreciation,
returned the compliment with a photo
graph and something a little bit more
substantial In the way of this world's
goods.
But the governor’s popularity grew
and namesakes Increased and multi
plied until almost every county In the
state had a blossoming young "gov
ernor” and In some counties they
doubled on him, which wasn’t fair
since It was not only a question of
photographs.
In fact the young Hoko Smiths In
creased so fast that the governor is
thren rened with tho necessity of em
ploying a special photographer to turn
out pjctqres fast enough to supply the
demand. Governor Smith has a book
In whh li lit* keeps tho names with tho
dates of birth of his namesakes and the
list has now roarh^l 44, with others
yet to be heard from.
Just how near Governor-elect Brown
will conn* to equaling Governor Smith’s
record in this respect Is a matter of
conjecture, a«. thf returns since the
election have not yet been re« Hvr.l.

CURED IN ONE MONTH
BY CUTICURA REMEDIES
"I am seventy-seven years old and
one day, some years ago, I fell from
a stop-ladder, bruizing
my heel. In a few days
1 could not walk. I
called In a doctor and
inside of a week erysip
elas sot In. The doctor
had not cured mo of
that when I was taken
with eczema from head
to foot. I was sick for
six months and what I
suffered tongue could
not tell. I,could not
sleep day or night Ireause of that dread
ful itching; when I did sleep it was from
sheer exhaustion. I was one mass of
irritation: it was even in my Bcalp. Tho
doctor's medicine Beamed to make me
worse and I was almost out of my mind.
I read of Cuticura and sent my wife to
the druggist, who was a member of my
lodge of Odd Fellows, for a set of the
Cuticura Soap. Cuticura Ointment and
Cuticura Resolvent. I used them per
sistently for twenty-four hours. That
night I slept like an infant, the first
solid night’s sleep I had had for six
months. I was not afraid to use plenty
of Cuticura Ointment nnd Cuticura Soap
with hot water and In a week’s time I
was able to put on my clothes again.
In a month I was cured. From that
day to this I cannot praise the Cuticura
Remedies too highly. I may add that
I have a very heavy head of hair which
I owe to Cuticura. W. Harrison Smith,
B.FJ). 2, Mt Klaco, N. Y., Feb. 3, '08.’*
A single set of the Cuticura Remedies

faction to prefer charge* of Incompe
tency against Lanford. In order that the
origin and nil of the details of the light
on the former sergeant may bo brought
to light. This Is regarded as a slgnM-
cant statement, bccauso of the fact that
friends of Lanford have hinted that
there Is a "nlggor In the woodpile" and
that the attack on Lanford may have
originated from his aggressive crusade
against gamblers.
That Dr. VonDyke will also be ques
tioned as to tho reason he withheld
charges "f Ini'ompetetii'y against Lon-
ford for months, when he ha* stated
that he had such charges In his pocket
the night Lanford resigned as sergeant.
Is also the belief of this commissioner.
If Lanford Is Incompetent, he should
not be permitted to hold hfs Job as pa
trolman," said tho commissioner. "In
my opinion. Dr. VonDyke will have an
opportqnlty to show that Lanford Is
incompetent."
All of this Indicates that tho Lan-
ford-Roberts Incident will prove one of
the most slzsllng features of the new
administration.
New Organization,
The commission will be called to or'
der Tuesdoy night by Acting Chairman
fattlllo. and. following ths reorganiza
tion. he will relinquish the chair to
Chairman Mason. This net will mnrk
the passing of the Kngllsh faction out
of power and the establishment of the
Mnson faction, the outgrowth of the
old Brotherton faction. Into full control
of the policies of tho police depart
ment. •
That the new faction purposes to
even up old scores with the English
faction there seems to be no doubt, anil
In doing this, It Is generally believed, It
will be necessary to remove several of
the present superior officers. Just how
far this shake-up will extend la a mat
ter of conjecture.
The English and Brotherton factlona
have been at war over the control of
the police department for years, and so
bitter has the light been that It ho*
practically divided the whole of the
city and Its effect has hern felt In al
most every municipal election.
The present belief that the new fac
tion, which has fallen heir to the poli
cies of the Brotherton faction, will
shake up matters Is baaed on the civil
service situation. Just before the
Brotherton faction lost Its power a few
years ago civil service was Inaugu
rated In the police department. th»
rules providing that civil service should
blanket the officers and the entire force
as It then existed, the officers and men
to hold their Jobs for life under good
behavior.
When the English faction came back
Into power later, however. It held that
the Inauguration of this civil service
was not legal. As n result. It was de
clared void, a general election was held*
the Brotherton faction officers were de
posed. almost as a whole, and a new
civil service Inaugurated. Since then
the English faction civil service has
K re vailed. Now. the English faction
as again lost out and the old faction Is
again on top.
Members of this faction declare that
the action of the English faction In
tearing down civil service and re-es-
lobllahlng It. after It had dropped the
Brotherton faction men. was Illegal and
that they purpose to right matters.
Hence, the uneasiness In the police
department.
