SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS
ON GEORGIA POLITICS
By JAMES B. NEVIN.

commissioner of agricultural and rail

his well earned
political laurels,
visits the capitol
now and then and
flits hither and
yon as of yore.
In this end of
the state the peo
ple refer to Colo
nel Obediah' as
"Uncle Obe." but
down in south
Georgia, where he
came from origin
ally. and w'here he
first began to sit
up and take no
tice of offices that
might be vacated
to his behoof and
benefit, they can
him "Uncle Tobe."
“Uncle Obe" is a statesman of re
pression. He moves in most mysterious
ways his wonders to perform When
ever silence In the capitol assumes the
aspect of a tangible thing, and nothing
whatever may be heard —no sound, no
ghostly echo, no—er—nothing—it is the
unfailing and unmistakable sign that
“Uncle Obe" is coming, coming, com
ing. and is very near at hand!
Before "Uncle Obe" was in his teens,
he had learned to walk on eggshell,
and never crack either a shell or a
smile.
He enters the north wing of the cap
itol as gently as a summer zephyr, and
he departs via the south wing, and no
man knoweth whence he cometh or
w hither he goeth!
"Uncle Obe" is a human encyclope
dia of Georgia political records and af
filiations. Whatever you may have
done, or whatever you may have left
undone, as a politician active for the
past twenty-odd years in the Georgia
vineyard, flatter not yourself that any
fraction of your gyrations has escaped
the eagle eye of "Uncle Obe" SteVens!
He knows—it may be that only he,
and you, and the Lord knows, to be
sure; and that neither you nor the
Lord is going to tell this side of Judg
ment day!
I ncle Obe is getting well along in
years, but he still plays the game—not
so strenuously as in the braver and
' younger days, as he sees it. but —well,
he continues to keep tab on persons
and events,
He never flits through the capitol—

flits is the only word that fits —without
leaving the impression on reportorial
minds that he has put something,
somehow, somewhere, over during the
flitting— sort of "slipped something to"
somebody, as it were! But they never
can tell exactly and precisely when,
where, to whom, and how it w r as done.
In the sleeves of his coat may be

child-like and bland!
Judge JSdward Hines.,of Milledgeville,
the "eloquentest man tn -middle Geor
bed him, had a run-in with the tax
receiver of Baldwin county the other
day.
Judge Hines is a very conscientious
man—particularly <n some things—and
in returning his property, his house
hold goods and chattels, he listed his
pipe, the friend of his youth and the
consolation of his maturing years, at
50 cents'.
The ad valorem tax collectible on a
piece of property returned at 50 cents is
about five mills, or one-half cent, but
. the judge didn’t care a hoot about that.
He knew the state needed the money,
, and he was determined to be game!
The tax receiver was so impressed
with Hines’ patriotic act —nobody ever
, before had returned a pipe for taxation
in Baldwin—that he made the mistake
of suspecting that Hines might be the
original Mr. Ezy Mark (such as tax re
ceivers constantly are rushing around
seeking whom they may devour), and
he accordingly raised the pipe return
to $1.50 and added SSOO to the value
of the residence the judge also returned
for taxation!
Judge Hines, the "eloquentest man."
etc., aforesaid, promptly went before
that tax receiver, and made him a grand
speech!
He didn't kick on the SSOO addition
to the house, particularly, but he wax
ed sarcastic, satirical, argumentative,
and scornful in respect of the pipe!
He pictured the depravity and utter
meanness of a tax receiver who would
so outrageously abuse a tax payer's pa
tience as to tamper .with his pipe
dreams. He w ent at the offending offi
cial hammer and tongs—at one point
he grew pathetic and almost made the
tax receiver weep!
Eventually the hurricane'of oratory
ceased, and all again was calm around
and about the tax receiver’s office—
for Hines had hied him hence!
Then the tax receiver—he seems to
be a wise man in his generation, after
all. and despite his mistaking Judge
Hines for Mr. Ezy Mark—shamefaced
ly got that old tax book out. and he
chopped that SSOO off Hines’ residence,
and left the old pipe at $1.50!
When Hines heard the news, he
smiled, and said that was like throw
ing old Br’er Rabbit in the briar patch!

Bookkeeper, 19. Stole Package
From Pensacola Bank and
Later Returned Money.
•■ ; ■
PENSACOLA. FLA.. Sept. 25.—To
day William Ts Bell, a 19-year-old bank
bookkeeper, is held a prisoner follow
ing his confession last night to the
theft of the $55,000 express package
that mysteriously disappeared from the
First National hank a week ago and
was as mysteriously returned on Mon
day. Bell said he confessed for fear
officers would suspect his brother and
cause his arrest.
Bell confessed in the presence of
( hies of Police Sanders, two Burns
detectives and newspaper men that he
conceived and carried through the theft.
W hile talking, Bell showed plainly
that he had been under a severe strain
and his eyes were red and swollen,
although it had not been half an hour
since he had made his first voluntary
statement. In telling of the robbery,
he stated that he made up a bogus
package similar in appearance to the
original and substituted it for the orig
inal while in the bank. He carried the
$5.5,000 in a suit case to his home tn a
suburb of the city and kept it there
from Tuesday night until 'Saturday
night, when, conscious stricken, he re
turned to the city and placed the valu
able pad age on the rear steps of the
bank building. The package remained
on the steps of the bank until discov

Detectives and the local chief of po
lice continued working on the case aft.
er the return of the money and were
contemplating an early arrest when
young Bell went to the bank and con
fessed to President F. C. Brent.
He wks immediately taken into cus
tody and made the confession in 'der
tail. The young man is of excellent
family and bears .a good reputation
personally. He has no bad habits and
did’not dwe" a ' cenf to any one. Why
he took the money is explained even
by him.
