He is the nestor of Georgia journalism, and he is possessed of the entire respect of his colleagues of the press. Whether the> agree with him always is another Question, and not particularly rpaterial. anyway. i T here is no man in Georgia more easy to understand than Colonel Pendleton. His methods are direct and to the point, ilis character speaks in every gesture and his sincerity is made manifest in ev ery attribute of his daily life. During the progress of the state con vention in Macon Colonel Pendleton’s sanctum was the Mecca of all sorts and conditions of politicians and statesmen, near and far; and to keep track of them all. give them the glad hand and a “wel come to our fair city.’’ was something of a tax both upon physical mental equip ment. Nevertheless, those people were Macon's guests, and. therefore, the obligation not to quit the ship, no matter how heavy the bombardment of “Howdy. Colonel’.” was pressing and insistent. Colonel I*endleton stood for the invading army in most chivalric and hospitable style. Colonel Pendleton’s work room in The lelegraph building is eloquent of Pen dleton. and tells what manner of man he is, and without Pendleton saying a word. I pon one side of him hangs a life-size oil portrait of “Stonewall” Jackson, on the other side a similar portrait of Rob ert E. Lee. Needless to add, both Con federate chieftains are pictured in full dress uniform. Over; in a corner is a group photograph of Grover Cleveland and his last cabinet—Hoke Smith and all. The gray-haired old veteran of the press furnishes the engaging exhibit back grounded by the other things. And there, without words, is all that is necessary to tell what manner of man Pen dleton is. Colonel Pendleton is. in many ways, a gerlhman of the old school whatever that is. lie loves every tradition of the South, l.iit he is quite well aware that the war - ; s over, and he long ago accepted the verdict of the GO’s, but without in any way surrendering a single conviction of right. The editor of The Macon Telegraph sometimes has been called a "bourbon.” He is not he is half a “bourbon” only. A “bourbon” is one who “learns noth ing, forgets nothing ” Colonel Pendleton learns much —everj day. But he is half “bourbon” in that he forgets nothing. In character and trend of thought, he is every inch a man —and every inch a news paperman. The Savannah News in a recent issue comments thusly: The Atlanta Georgian quotes a north west Georgia politician as expressing w the opinion that there are gloomy times ahead for his section, political ly, unless something is done to stop the creation of new’ counties in south j| Instant Postum 1 1 1. mi iiiuMttiiit ««•« H r f a I 111I 11 Postum® ) vwlll ■> Gereal k| Poiium Cer»«l Co.

Georgia He thinks that through this means the southern part of the state, will soon have north Georgia "eating out of her hand " The time Is ripe tor a change, because the northern part of the state has controlled the state s politics and furnished nearly all of the officers since At lanta was made the capital But south Georgia will not come into her own by means of new counties but because of preponderance of popula tion. wealth and resources The new counties are only an incident. They were made necessary by the growth or this section. It will not be many .'ears before the great majority of the population will be in the southern part of the state, and then will come its political as well as mdustrial su premacy. But south Georgia is too busy expanding and developing to .worry about the offices for a while at least, and is letting the northern part of the state have most of them. If this section presents men for state of fices it will be because of merit and not from sectional feeling 4 'f’he "result in Vermont.” which was to tell So much, in reality tells very little. lhe ancient Republican majority has vanished—but by a curious sort of politi cal legerdermain. it seems to have van ished into nowhere, rather than into somewhere. The Democrats didn’t get it. Their vote is about the same old vote that Vermont ever gives, forlornly enough, to Demo cratic endeavor. Years ago, Henry Grady eulogized the noble 20,000 that stood always if hope lessly on the Democratic burning deck in Vermont. They are still standing there 3 his much alone seems certain with respect to Vermont. What the regular Republican ticket lost, the bull moose out fit gained. That’s what makes it difficult to say whither politically the ancient Republican majority in Vermont went. In the mat ter of legislative elections, the old time Republican order of things was more fortunate in retaining what never yet has escaped it. What shall it profit the bull moose party in Vermont that it defeated the regulars in a state election, on the surface of things, and yet permitted the election of a legislature that will insure a regular Republican governor regardless? Vermont bull mooses may have gained what they straightway would lose again. A man with plenty of white paper and a ready pen will be able to make the Ver mont returns prove any old thing he wishes to prove. DALTON DfrGS TO BE TAGGED.
