NEVIN. i f >nf* Georgia congressman, who does ; not wish his named mentioned, but who I does not mind being quoted otherwise, , has his Ideas about j how the question of Federal pat- ronage should be ...y. j'. s.'tth d In the main W in this state, now that a Democratic | administration in g * wHW Washington is a-- : sured —that is. he |B I has his ideas about gg z the postmaster- Sat He thinks ap pii. ants should be referred t > becomis cnndlilates before the peopb of their w’fe respcetiv. locali ties--Just as they T JAMtkS C> rKESWXH would become candidates for other offi. es. “I believe a postmaste. ship might be referred to the people aff< eted with en tire propriety. If a certain man in Co lumbus, say—l select Columbus entire ly for example, of course —is a candi date for postmaster, and he is opposed in that ambition by other good men. all being Democrats and qualified, why should a congressman be asked to de cide between them, when he may have no particular preference?” said this gentlemen today, discussing his idea. “It would be very inexpensive to hold a local election in any city wishing to settle the question of its postmaster ship that way—a.nd why, in perfect se riousness, wouldn't that be an Ideal way to settle it? “If there is any virtue at all in popu lar elections to office, why not elect this important official by popular vote? “I believe a referendum of the post masterships would be an ideal thing, and I hope to see the idea developed and put into practice generally. !t would be thoroughly democratic, and it would relieve a congressman of the very groat embarrassment of de ciding between a number of his friends and constituents at times when the congressman really may have no par ticular preference.” Governor Brown today was shown an editorial in The Savannah News of re cent date, in which the governor's farming ideas and ideals were warmly commended. Among other things, The News said: Governor Brown, who for a long time has had the reputation of be ing a first-class governor, has now established a reputation as a first class farmer. Having raised 158 > bushels of corn on an acre he is In the position to claim that he is the state’s champion corn farmer. If reports are to be credited some of the members of the boys corn clubs have raised more corn than that this year on an acre, but we feel Safe in saying that no farmer has done so. Governor Brown is proud of be ing a farmer, and It is well known that his farm in Cherokee county is one of the very best in the state, owing largely to the intelligent way in which it is managed. "That's fine," said the governor, dis cussing The News’ editorial, “and I ap preciate the kind words of the Savan nah paper.' "| want it understood, however, that I am not trying to start anything with the corn club boys—there are any number of those youngsters who can beat me all to pieces farming. "I think 1 shall rest content to be known as the champion governor farmer. If any other governor in the Union wishes to try conclusions with me in tho noble art of farming, let him come on. In that respect, I cry, ‘Lay on. Mac Duff, and defeated be he who first cries, hold, enough!’ "But outside the circle of governors, please do not think I am looking for competition in the farming business. “if I entered the lists with one oj those corn club boys, I am afraid he might get my goat, as they say!” Keeper of Public Buildings Pierce Butler Latimer is being warmly con gratulated because of the fine work he has done in the master of redecorating the capital. It has been freshened up from one end to the other, and the interior deco rations are decidedly the prettiest and tastiest that ever have been made. The entire color scheme is In brown —and the effect is particularly pleasing to the |i eye. Mr. I.atlmer planned all the work himself, and has had it executed at comparatively small expense to the state And the work was not done a minute before It was needed, either! In all the circumstances, and particu larly with the universally admitted ap pearance of things—or seeming appear, ance of things-immediately preceding the recent presidential election In Geor gia in mind, some rather curious things happened, and the figures present sev eral interesting studies. In the first place, the combined Roosevelt and Taft vote within the state this year was only 26.212. as against a Taft vote last time of 41.692. And in addition to the Taft vote in 1908, there was a Watson vote of 16,- 964. These two items made up a total 1908 anti-Democratic vote of 58,656 —more than double the opposition vote this year. And of the 26,212 votes cast tn oppo sition to Wilson this year, surely some of them must be credited to Mr. Wat son’s activity—say 6,212. anyway. Thia, then, would reduce the actual Republican showing Bull Moose and regular combined —to a mere 20,000. What became of the Republican vote in Georgia this year? Did Wilson get a lai’ge measure of it, or did a largo ! measure of it stay at home? j in 1906 Mr. Tuft carried two cup- gresslonal districts in Georgia, and 31 counties. This year he carried not one county. Mr. Roosevelt carried six. In four counties this year Mr. Taft failed to get a single vote, and in 32 mote he got less than 10. in no county did Mr. Roosevelt fail to score, but in seventeen he failed to get as many* as 10 votes. is it that Mr. Roosevelt was a mor<* compelling influence in Georgia in 1908 when he backed Mr. Taft fotvthe presi dency than he was in 1912 when he offered himself to the consideration of voters? Or is it that Georgians very greatly preferred Wilson to either Taft or Roosevelt ? Or is It that Georgia gladly did for Mr. M ilson that which it was disin clined to do for Mr. Bryan in 1908* I he most likely answer is that the Democratic nominee this year was more to Georgia's liking than any the party has offered in many days.
