SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS ON GEORGIA POLITICS It will be conceded generally through out Georgia that Mr. Thomas E. Wat son’s active and aggressive support o Mr. Roosevelt will -tn., be worth many votes to the Bull « Moose candidate. It is idle to con- I tend that Mr. Watson has not a |BBr ■"'W ySSa large and com- Is Wai pact following in I|L /"* the state. ■ '’’""Hlßsla He lias any- gV where from 10,000 to 16,000 devotee" friends and ag, uaflaMsfe; l IWBII herents in Georgi . who will vote un questionably so. 9S ... . jjMgU Roosevelt upoi □j jr. gggsy Mr. Watson’s mere request ' ’ * JaMS-A » WVIM No man in the state has so many votes that he may depend upon utterly, and at a mere wave of the hand or suggestion. And it is not that this following is blind or unintelligent, for it is neither. It merely Is that the Watson following believes implicitly in Mr. Watson, and that it goes his way because it believes his way is the right way. While It is true, however, that Mr. Watson’s support of Mr. Roosevelt will win many votes to the Rough Rider, it Is equally true that it will spur Demo crats to renewed activity. There are many voters In this state who will line up actively for anybody Mr. Watson is opposed to—add it is but fair to say, perhaps, that these voters are neither blind nor unintelli gent! Mr. Watson is at once both the most hated and the most loved man in Geor gia, in certain quarters. His "bolt" to Roosevelt has added considerable ginger to the campaign, anyway. Herbert Clay, the newly elected so licitor general of the Blue Ridge cir cuit, discussing the execution of two negroes in Cumming yesterday, talked today most interestingly on affairs in Forsyth county, political as well as otherwise. “It is difficult for a person living away from Forsyth county to under stand the feelings of the people there, and for that reason they should not be censured too harshly for tearing down the big fence which had been erected to prevent the execution of the crimi nals in anyway other than as the law provides,” said Mr. Clay. "The polities of Forsyth may be more or less mixed, but upon the question attaching to the execution of these two negroes the people are united. It may be that they would not have restrained themselves had the military not been sent along with the criminals. Ah to that lam not prepared to say, I am glad the execution was carried nut le gally; It would have been a depioraglo thing to have had a lynching in Cum ming yesterday. “The feeling against the negroes ex ecuted may be measured and estimated By JAMES B . NEVIN. in away when I say that Forsyth county, since the crimes that precipi tated tile present situation were com mitted, has been absolutely freed of negroes entirely. I honestly believe that the two negroes executed in For syth yestreday were the only two ne groes in the county at the time! "So shocking and so inhuman were the crimes for which the negroes died that a big wave of indignation swept over the county, utterly wiping out the negro section of its population. I do not mean that negroes were killed, but I do mean they were forced to leave the county, and in some parts of the same a number of negro houses and churches were burned. "Among the wholesale withdrawal of the negroes from Forsyth county were many, of course, who were law-abiding and relatively inoffensive. But For syth county was no place for them— they were, and are. better off else where. "I do not attempt to moralize par ticularly with respect to the situation now existing in Forsyth. I think it must be something like that which ex isted throughout the South right after reconstruction times —a negro is a ne gro in Forsyth right now. and the peo ple up there are unable to differentiate between them particularly. "The greater part of the negroes de parting from Forsyth merely have gone into adjoining counties, and, by and by, some of them may drift back to their old homes: but I do not think that will be soon. And I do not think For syth county will be safe for them for a good many days to come. "1 think the governor has won the respect of the people of Forsyth in seeing to it that the negroes got a fair trial and a legal execution—even though to guarantee that to them he had to protect the people of Forsyth against themselves. "The sheriff and county officials may have dreaded the possible effect upon themselves politically by insisting that the law be carried out, but nothing of disaster will come to them, 1 am sure, because they did their duty under their oaths." • The Georgia friends of Colonel Theo dore Roosevelt—and he has very many warm friends and admjrers in this state are interested In the suit for libel he has brought against a Michigan news paper that attacked him viciously not long ago for alleged intemperance in language and liquor. Os course. Colonel Roosevelt’s Idea is merely to establish a record in refu tation of the ancient charge, never sus. ■ tained, that the former president hab itually overindulged himself in strong 1 drink. For the charge of Intemperance in latwuage he cares nothing whatever, ; perhaps. It Is possible that s. number of peo i pie, never ho situated that they might 1 Intelligently study Colonel Roosevelt at close range, believe the stories set a Heat > from time to time with respect to his intemperance.

Definite steps were taken today look ing to the building.of a handsome $50,- 000 home for the nurses of Grady hos pital, to be situated on the hospital grounds. Sixteen sets of p.’ans. submitted by as many architects, have been placed in the hands of Dr. W. B. Summerall, the superintendent, and from these the plan of the new home will be chosen. The officials of the hospital will be aided in their choice by an advisory architect, ■ whose services have been engaged for this purpose. The officials contemplate a home that will comfortably house 96 nurses. When it is completed the corps of nurses, which is now abnormally small, will be immediately increased to meet the de mands of the hospital. This will mean the realization of a long needed im provement in the efficiency of the insti tution, the present shortage of nurses having proved a serious problem for a long time. Plans are expectedto be selected with in the next few days, after which the matter will be taken up with the city council with the view of procuring an additional appropriation before actual work of building begins. Only a small i appropriation is now available. The Grady nurses have long sought a new home and are enthusiastic over the preparations started for the new struc. ture. The present building is an old. . ramshackle, overcrowded affair that 1 as been in use for years and falls fat short of the requirements of a real , nurses home. “We are planning for the future as , well as the present.” says Dr. Summer all. "and want to erect such a home as will meet the demands of the hospital ! as it grows and forces an increase in the corps of nurses in coming years.” 9 ___ _______________________________________ _ 1 drink, is one of the most sparing of drinkers -he rarely touches anything, and when he does, it usually is a light wine.
