SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS
ON GEORGIA POLITICS
By JAMES B. NEVIN.
Everybody's doing it—explaining that
there are two separate and distinct
Tom Felders in Georgia.
There is Thomas S. Felder, of Bibb,
who is the state's attorney general,
and Thomas B, Felder, of Fulton, who
is Governor Blease’s particular pet
horror.
Both fonts are very much in the pub
lic eye nowadays, and It is just as
well the public should be thoroughly
impressed with the idea that the two
Toms are not one and the same per
son.
There is this about it: Thomas Swift
Felder, the attorney general, is a can
didate for re-election to his present of
fice. He has served one good term, and
he thinks that he deserves another.
1 homas B. Felder is a candidate for
nothing. He has no office-holding as
pirations, and can not, for the life of
him. discover one symptom of politicitis
anywhere about his person.
Therefore, when it comes to the two
Tom Felders, one will readily realize
that it is quite necessary that the pub
lic differentiate clearly between the
two Toms, and not get 'em mixed.
Those who feel so inclined will vote
for Thomas S. Felder in the August
primary. To vote for Thomas B. would
be a vote thrown away*, for he is not
a candidate—and to split in any wise
the vote of Felder in Georgia Ijetween
Thomas S. and Thomas B. would be an
unjust proceeding, of course.
Be very, very careful, dear people,
and do not get your Tom Felders
mixed!
Those legislators w:m recently
visited Rome were treated to a
beerless barbecue. Inasmuch as the
house refused to adjourn for that
Rome meeting, it looks now as if
some of the members must have
had advance notice of what was to
happen.
Judge John T. Allen, of Baldwin, has
thrown his hat into the ring where all
men may take notice thereof, and lets
it be known ’unequivocally that he is a
candidate for the presidency of the next
senate.
W ithout doubt. Judge Allen is going
to be a mighty hard man to beat, if.
indeed, the trick is possible of turn
ing.
No man ever offered for that high
and honorable office who was better
equipped for the holding of it.
Judge Allen possesses many of the
liner and more intangible qualifications
for the presidency of the senate —and
it is peculiarly an office in which dis
creet diplomacy and poise count for
much.
If Judge Allen is successful in his
candidacy and realizes eventually his
high ambition, he likely will be the last
president of the senate Georgia ever

will know, for it seems assured that
the present legislature will pass the
lieutenant governor bill.
If Mr. Hooper Alexander is as
successful in his efforts to extend
the Western and Atlantic to the sea
as he is in extending his remarks on
the floor of the house, well—!
A decidedly interesting rumor of lo
cal significance is one to the effect that
Hollins Randolph, of Atlanta, will be a
candidate for the legislature in the Au
gust primary-.
The day for the closing of entries is
near at hand and Mr. Randolph has not
yet made official announcement of an
intent to run. still it is a fact that a
number of his friends are urging upon
him that he enter the lists.
Mr. Randolph was one of Georgia's
delegates-at-large to the national Dem
ocratic convention in Baltimore last
month, and was easily one of the most
influential members of the delegation.
His acquaintance is wide and his
friends are legion. If he runs, it can
not be doubted that his following will
be large and likely- victorious.
■'Just think, the legislature docs
not adjourn until Aug. 14,’’ laments
an esteemed contemporary. Cheer
up, comrade! It might be August 20,
you know!
"They say" there is a growing cold
ness between Woodrow Wilson and
Hoke Smith; "they say" Colonel Wat
terson is betting that Woodrow Wil
son and Bryan will not speak as they
pass by pretty soon; "they say” Wood
row Wilson will dispense Federal pa
tronage—if he ever gets any to dis
pense, which seems likely—according to
his own sweet will and not otherwise.
Old Man “They Say” seems to be
fairly active for a man of his age, con
sidering the hot weather, especially.
Gordon Lee has announced for con
gress again in the Seventh district, and
this time he is to have no opposition.
Mr, Lee has had opposition every
time before this, and it must seem to
him that the present situation is just
about too good to be true. *
When he was first elected. “Rufe”
Hutchens disputed things with him,
then Judge Fite undertook to put him
out of business, the third time he ran
Walter Akerman endeavored to de
tach his scalp, and the last time he ran
Mose Wright essayed the job.
Having weathered ali these strenu
ous gales political, Gordon Lee event
ually may reach a point of view en
tertained by a lot of his constituents
for a long time, and that is that there
isn't any use trying to put him out of
congress without his own consent, any
way.
ATLANTA FACTORY
SELLS 26,000 PAIRS
OF OVERALLS TO U.S.
Twenty-six thousand pairs of over
alls are being shipped from Atlanta by
the Nunnally & McCrea Co. to Panama,
this being the largest shipment of the
kind ever made in the United States to
fill one order.
The Atlanta spirit shown by this live
concern is a surprise to the trade in
general and to Atlantans in particu
lar.
When bids were asked by the United
States government for overalls for the
laborers on the Panama canal, the At
lanta concern decided to enter the com
petition. When Mr. McCrea lined up
with the other manufacturers it was
considered by some a joke. He submit
ted a bid on the speclficatiorts fur
nished.; also bids on specifications of
his own; a careful investigation was
made by the United States experts, and
Mr. McCrea's bid was accepted. The
material was the same as submitted by
the others, but the workmanship was so
much better that he won the contract,
and their goods have given such satis
faction that their make has been adopt
ed as the standard by the United States
government.
In competition with. Nunnally & Mc-
Crea were a dozen factories, covering
territory from Chicago to Boston, and
it was stated by those in competition
that the Southern, concern could not
fill the orders, as they were not pre
pared to meet the demands. This has
proven incorrect, as there has never
been any delay, nor has the Atlanta
factory ever had returned to it a sin
gle garment.

“The Houses In Our Midst”
Reason, Law and Experience Demand Their Suppression. Thirty-three Reasons for Hurried Readers.
NOTE!
hirst: Future inmates mqst come from homes in our midst.
DE A CAM Treaties between civilized nations prevent the impor-
IxCAJVH, tation of girls.
Lnited States statutes forbid their being brought from
other states.
Knscor. on trial for keeping house at Hartford, Conn.,
HOIMF stated that Federal authorities made the securing of girls in
IlviilL* New 1 ork for use in Hartford impossible, but could obtain
all necessary in Connecticut.
Second: From them deadly and malignant germs go to the inno
cent.
HF A I TH Within twelve months thirteen suffering litttle girls un-
111/AL I IL 'Hr ten years of age in Grady hospital hear witness.
Third : To confine them in one locality is impossible.
The experience of all cities attempting this proves it a
failure.
Fourth: Segregation, or the pretense of confining them in one
lie s S| district, enriches the few, disgraces all, and fails.
* Atlanta 's experience proves this.
Fifth: Their existence causes political corruption.
Every city where the evil has been thoroughly and hon-
T|jr 1 i lit estly investigated confirms this.
IHL LAW. Sixth: the houses in our midst can not be reconciled with the
Brotherhood of Man and the Fatherhood of God.
A man need think only of his sister or daughter.
UNDERSTAND!
I Is 4 VlMfi First: Our Mayor's oath is, “I will, to the utmost of my ability.
LLA V lllU discharge the duties of Mayor."
Second: The charter provides, ‘‘He shall see that all laws and
ordinances of the city are faithfully executed."
Third : An ordinance specifies a duty of the chief of police to be
fIFFICI Al P reven t commission of crime and arrest offenders.”
VI 1 IvIALD Fourth: Another provides that the ‘‘detectives" shall abate such
places as the houses.
Fifth : An ordinance declares that “any owner or agent of owner
who may rent or cause to be rented" these houses shall, upon
WITH Al IT conviction before the Recorder, be both fined and imprisoned.
Wil nUU 1 Sixth: "Any owner or agent of such owner” permitting inmates
Io continue in the houses for two days after warning by the
chief of police shall, upon conviction before the recorder, be
fined and imprisoned.
EVfIICC Seventh: An owner permitting inmates to remain two days after
EAvUuLy character of bouse determined by recorder subject to fine
and imprisonment.
Eighth: "Circumstances from which it may be reasonably in
ferred that a house” is one of the houses in our midst is suf-
AMA ficient evidence.
Al’U Ninth: The Chief of Police has authority to eject inmates after
the character of the house has been determined.
Tenth: The Supreme Court of Virginia, in sustaining the removal
from office of the Mayor of Roanoke, Va., for encouraging
THE EVDEDIEMEC P ermitt^n S a segregated district in Roanoke, said: ‘‘Ours
I HL tAltKltnlvt is a government of laws, not of men. No officer may substi-
tute his discretion in the place of the law, which alone ex
presses the will and policy of our State. ’ ’ —Culchin vs. Roan
oke, 74 S. E. R. 403.
AE REMEMBER!
vl First: Atlanta’s Mayor and Chief of Police are not corrupt.
Seattle could get no relief from a segregated district until
the removal of its mayor and chief of police.
This city will get relief as soon as our Mayor and Chief
Cl'TirC ce !iru convinced of the wisdom and justice of the de-
L| I |r\ maud for the suppression of these houses.
" Second: Seattle, after getting rid of Gill, its mayor, by recall,
closed its Segregated District.

ports conditions improved.
Fourth: Los Angeles also.
EAI I V Fifth: Salt Lake likewise has adopted a policy of suppression.
lULLI, Sixth: Des Moines' Mayor Hanna says: ‘‘ll is claimed by those
favoring segregation that the women scatter through the res
idence section, but this is not true in this city. Des Moines
is in a great deal better condition today than in the days of
MAT segregation.”
11V A Seventh: The Attorney General of lowa, in which state it is said
there is no open house of prostitution, says:
‘‘The good—in cleaner towns and cities, in money saved
to the needy, in boys and girls turned from the haunts of vice
FANATICISM into v ' rt ’>e, in making sober husbands and fathers.
I Hi’rl 1 m i n making homes happy and inspiring respect for law and
order—is so immeasurably great that no matter what may
come to us in future, we will never cease being grateful.”
Eighth: Fall River Police Board says of suppression:
jllAKp ‘‘Excellent results have been obtained—any department
that is honest and alert can keep such houses out of its ter-
• ritory.”
Ninth : Lincoln’s Mayor says:
jlfFl/IT i ni p “ We do not have so much trouble with this vice in blocks
INtVII ADLE find rooming houses as we had when we had a segregated
