Tn no one of the«e four elections did he have opposition. His short term in the governor’s of fice. held by reason of Governor Smith’s resignation and pending the election of Mr. Smith's successor, was marked by no untoward incident that can in any wise hurl him or adversely affect him in his present ambition. On the con trary, such short iecord as he made in the governorship was all to his credit. Tn the hotel lobbies nowadays the' are referring to Slaton as the "luckiest follow” ever in Georgia politics. It is pointed out that be "never has had op position for anything,” and that "plums Just naturally drop into his lap." There ate a great many people, how ever, who ate beginning to suspect - if they never suspected it before—that there is much more than mere "luck" involved in a career as successful and yet as devoid of strife as Mr. Slaton’s has been. Otto of his big assets seems to be an ability to tie on friends with cords that can not be broken. He has, in bis long 'ears of legislative service, made him self known favorably to thousands of Georgians- many of them those very mon. too. to whom Mrs. W. Y. Atkinson once unfortunately—but truthfully— re ferred as ’’the men who control" in Georgia. It looks as if the governor’s j-ace is to develop into a runaway for Slaton. F>ir from the madding crowd’s Ig noble strife, Colonel S. Guyt McLendon dally meets his friends and takes his ease. The storms thdt-iteat about the houses of those who play the game of politics vehemently and with wearing enthu siasm—they who go the pace that kills —come not at all to the house of Mc- Lendon. In the Kimball house lobby Colonel McLendon bolds daily a sort of calm levee, and keeps in touch with what is going on. There are few men In Georgia who are better posted than he on political topics, big and little. He Is, perhaps, the highest authority on the tariff ques tion tn Georgia today. His views are not shared by all Georgians -for lie be lieves frankly in a protective tariff, as against so-called free trade—but it 1s not always a safe undertaking to argue with him, for he has facts and figures in most bewildering profusion, with which to silence and confound most un expectedly now and then. Colonel McLendon takes an active In terest In politics, and he knows the Georgia game Just about as well as the next one. at that. He has his likes and his dislikes, and he never talks to empty benches, so to speak. The thing Mr. McLendon would give a good deal to know right now ig all the ins and outs, the pros and cons, and all the Ifs and ands of the col lapse of the Hudson campaign But he doesn't; and in that he ha.’ nothing much on anybody else, per haps. > THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. TUESDAY. JUNE 11. 1912. COUNCIL BLAMED FDD BID SCHOOLS Builders Trace Poor Condition of Houses to Meager Ap propriations. R. M. Walker president of the Build ers' Exchange, said today that the re- I port of that body, stating the cause of the bad condition of the bond issue schools to be the short appropriations for the buildings by council, would be submitted to the board of education and the bond commission as evidence "hen these bodies meet to determine who Is responsible. F. A. Quillian, chairman of the bond commission, said that, no meeting would be called until Building Inspector Hayes had completed his investigation of all the schools. Blame Placed on Council. "The language of our report Is mild,” said Walker. "The great trouble with the school buildings was caused by the penuriousness of council. We want to reply to the attacks made on the con tractors and to urge that the city be more liberal in financing such improve, ments in the future." F. A. Quillian declared that when the report of the defects in the schools was submilted he would demand that the. contractors make good their contracts. Buildings blot Fire-Proof. Said Building Inspector Hayes: “It will take considerable work to repair some nf the buildings I have Inspected. There is a great deal of merit in the statement of the Builders' Exchange that the buildings were con structed 100 cheaply. They are not fire-proof and never will be what they should be.” ACROSS SEA WIRELESS TO BE TRIED THIS YEAR NEW YORK.
