Mr. Roosevelt will
be worth many*
votes to the Bull
Moose candidate.
It is idle to con -
tend that Mr.

large and Com

He has any

to 15.000 'devote I

Roosevelt upot
Mr. Watson's nan
request.
No man in the
.
f <rf
state has so many votes that he may
depend upon utterly, ami 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—and 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 lias 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.
‘‘lt 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 any way other than as the law
provides,” said Mr. Clay.
"The politics 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 jrlminals. As to
that 1 am not prepared to say. I am
glad the execution was carried out le
gally; It would have been a deploraglc
thing to have had a lynching in Cum
ming yeaterda'.'.
'The feeling .igainsi inr negroes ex
ii, itcil may be nieasmv-d and ‘ulaiutwf
. NEVIN
■in a wa; .. mm I .-ay that l'm-yth
I qoanty, silae I lie crimes that precipi
tated th" present situation were com-
I mittfil, Iris beer! absolutely freed of
I ""grots entirely. 1 honestly believe
I that tiie two negroes executed in For
i syth yesire.lay were the only two ne
i "roes it. the county at the time!
“So shocking and so inhuman were
l the crimes for which the negroes died
that a big wave of indignation swept
over the county, utterly wiping out the
I negro section of its population. I do
iiiotvnean that negroes were killed, but
! I do mean they were forced to leave
I the county, and in some parts of the
same a number of'negro Pottses 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
sylh county was no place for them—
they were, and are. better off else
where.
“I do not attempt to moralise par
ticularly with respect to the situation
now existing in Forsyth. I think it
must'be something like that which ex
isted throughout tlie 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 1 do not think lhat
will be soon. And 1 do not think For
syth county will be safe for them for
a good many days to come.
"I think the governor has won the
respect of the people of Forsyth in
seeing to it lhat 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, I 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 admirers in this slate
—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

HOME FOR GRADY
NURSES PLANNED
Sixteen Sets of Drawings Sub
mitted for Proposed New
$50,000 Structure.
Definite steps were taken today look
ing lo the building of a handsome $50,-
000 home for j.he nurses of Grady hos
pital, to be situated on the hospital
grounds.
Sixteen s« ts of plans, submitted by
as many architects, have been placed in
the hands of Dr. \v. 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.
Plansare expeetedto be selected with
in the next few days, after which the
matter will be taken up with the city
council with the vfev. of procuring an
additional appropriation before actual
work of building begins. Only a small
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
lias 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.”
drink, is one of the most sparing of
drinkers —he rarely touches anything,
and when he does, it usually is a light
wine.
If any class of men in this world
know Mr. Roosevelt for what he really
is, personally and otherwise, it Is the
newspaper correspondents accredited by
the big dailies to Washington city.
Their undivided testimony is that Colo
nel Roosevelt has merely been the vic
tim of mean slander in the matter of
his alleged intemperance—Just as other
presidents before him have been.
Colonel Roosevelt seems determined
to establish by a court record, how-'
ever, that which those who really are
acquainted with him already know to
be the truth—and perhaps It is just as
well, for there Is no good reason why
anybody anywhere should believe that
old Intemperance falsehood.
