Tite legislature has bft only niit* working days, including today. If it cuts nut next Aiaetirday it will have I thereafter only three days In w hich to | complete its labors. This legislature is unique in that it has served under two governors one I session under Governor Smith and one j under Governor Brow n.

It hasn't I done much, and it hasn't undone much j And it max bo that that is a pretty | good certificate of character for it. There is a great deal of unfinished business before tlic house and the s< di late. and both will adjourn soon with ] the bulk of it still unfinished. A few .afternoon sessions will be held between | this time and adjournment, and one <>r two night sessions. I 'm the night of Wednesday, Angus' 14, the clock will be set back an hour or sn after midnight and the usual hymns will be sung while the final conference® are in progress Thon the curtain will I fall ;im die—and that w ill be about all for this legislature. j And It might be worse notwlth i standing the jokesmiths and the pro ; fess ionnl jesters! Perhaps Uncle Joe Hill Hall ' .ould joint debate with somebody, j if only somebody would ask him, Al endy it numbe of fiewspapers throughout the state "have their sus picions" about smm tilings that c’s i going mi in Georgia. For instance. The Macon Telegraph, w hich is one among man*, carried Sun day this interesting and gossipy bit of reading matter: , There is a growing impression that the candidacy of Nash R Broyles, recorder of Atlanta, can didate for the state court of ap peals against Judge .1, R. Pottle, is backed by the prohibition elemenl in the state. It is rather a significant fact that j Judge Broyles decided to enter the ace about the same time Hoopei Alexander was setting the stage scenerx for his own dramatic entry into the gubernatorial race The view obtains generally that Judge Broyles and Mr. Alexander rope sent the extreme prohibition ele ment for the respective offices, and that both will receive the support and backing of that crowd Many of the south and middle Georgia members, too. are a bit peevish over what they term At lanta's effort to "hog everything." They point to the fact that Atlanta has one man on the court of ap peals, Judge Ben Htll. and that Judge Pottle Is the only south Georgia man in that court. These men say that Atlanta is not entitled to two men on the court, and should be content with their one representative. Judg- Pottle practically has the unani mous backing of the bar of the state, and In the brief time he lias been on the bench has demonstrat ed hi- fitness and capacity for Hie work. It will be recalled that Judge Powell resigned while John M. Sla ton was acting governor, and that Slaton named Pottle as Powell’s successor. The politicians of Geo gia are about as quick to "smell a mouse" in a situa tion as anybody could be, whellier there n ally is a mouse there or not!

Whenever the "calamity howler" or the state-is-in-bankrupt orator arise.- in the house he is sure to hear from Jone*. Jones says Georgia is not living beyond her means, and has not for many sears, ami that all suggestions to the contrary are cheap politics and claptrap. And the dangerous things about Jones, too. is that he is sure to be right 1 there with the figures to prove what he says! i The gubernatot ial race hasn’t much going loom left, but. it pro -1 poses to go some, nevertheless!
