A 63 WHITEHALL STREET V ZrfOC ■Georgian want ads bring results. THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 8, 1912. ’SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS 0N GEORGIA POLITICS By JAMES B. NEVIN. One Georgia congressman, who does . not wish his named mentioned, but who i does not mind being quoted otherwise, k W' M jamjus a xrrvttw ' has his ideas about [ how the question jof Federal pat ! ronage should be I settled in the main j in this state, now I that a Democratic administration in I Washington is as sured —that is, he j iias his ideas about j the postmaster ships, anyway. He thinks ap j plicants should be | referred to become I ■ candidates before j the people of their I respective locali ties—Just as they would become candidates for other offices. “I believe a postmastership might be referred to the people affected with en tire propriety. If a certain man in Co lumbus, say -1 selei-: Columbus entire ly for example, of course—ls 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 pref, once?" said this gentlemen today, discussing his idea. “It would be very inexpensive to hold a local election in any city w ishing to settle the question of its postmaster ship that way -and 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 mast* ships would be an ideal tiling, and I hope to see the idea developed and put into practice generally. Il would be thoroughly democratic, and it would relieve a congressman of tin- v*ry great embarrassment of de ciding between a number of hie friends and constituents at times when the congressman really may have no par ticular pr* ference.” 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 oth 'y 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 I 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 th*? stat*, j owing largely to the intel’lgent way in which it is managed. ! “That's fine.” said the governor, dis cussing The News' editorial, "and I ap | predate the kind words of the Sa van- I nali paper. | "1 want it understood, however, that 1 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 I shall rest content to be known as tile champion governor farmer. If any other governor in the Union wishes to try conclusions with me tn the noble a-rt of farming, let him come on. In that respect. I cry, 'Day on. MgcDuff. 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 1 entered the lists with one of those corn club boys, I am afraid he might got my goat, as they say!" Keeper of Public Buildings Pierce j Butler Latimer is being warmly con ■ gratulated because of the fine work he j has done in the matter of redecorating the capltol. 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 eye. Mr. Latimer planned all the work | himself, and has hail it executed at 'comparatively small expense to the ! state And the work was nut done a minute before it was needed, either! In all the circumstances, and partii u- I larly with the universally admitted ap pearance of things or seeming appear, lance of things -immediately preceding . the recent prisidentia! election in Geor i gia in mind, some rather curious thing happened, and the figures present sev eral interesting studies. Tn the first place, the combined I Roosevelt and Taft vote within the! state this year was only 2t>,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 antl-Democratic vote of 58,656 —more than double the opposition vote this I year. And of the 26.212 votes cast In oppo sition to Wilson this year, surely some of them must be credited to Mr. Wat son's activity say <*,212, any way. This, then, would reduce the actual I Republican showing Hull Moose and | I reguiar combim d -to a mere 20,00<<. I Wr-at b.-camc of the Republican vote | in Georg i i.-is year l> : Wilson get I i a large meiienm of it. or rim a large i mr.isur* of it -lay .*; h*>m* ' I In 19U.S Mi Taft i.irried two von- gressional 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 more he got less than 10. In no county did Mr. Roosevelt fall to score, but in i seventeen he failed to get as many as j 10 votes. Is it that Mr. Roosevelt was a more compelling influence in Georgia in 1908 when he backed Air. Taft for the presi dency than l-.» was in 1912 wh- n he offered himself to the consideration of voters? Or le it that Georgiai s very greatly I preferred Wilson to eitiier Taft or Roosevelt? I I <i is it that Georgia gladly did for; Mr. '.Tilson that which it was disin clined to do for Mr.-Bryan in 1908? [ 1 *:e most likely answer is that the Democratii- nominee this year was mor. to G. 0.-gia's liking than any the party has offered in many days.
