I SEAR CH IN GSIDELI GH TS
! ON GEORGIA POLITICS
By JAMES B. NEVIN.
P'stmastersaip contests already loom
large on the Democratic horizon in
, Georgia, and the prospects a,rc for some
lively timewahead
In the .matter of
| plucking here and
I there those most
, desirable plums.
Already there
are 42 candidates
for the Job in
I Thomasville. This
is. n as yet, far
Above the aver
age, of course, but
it is significant,
nevertheless.
Rome is to have
one of the pret
tiest fights—only
it win not be a
"fight" exactly -
of them all, even
if nobody other
JajOJ* ts MErvrtW
than the two present avowed candi
dates throws hie hat Into the ring.
John M. Vandiver, present tax col
lector and former postmaster under
President <'leveland, wants the Rome
postmastership, and so does Jack Mc-
Cartney, managing editor of The Rome
Tribune- Herald.
That is going to make it mighty em
barrassing for Rome to take sides.
Both of these aspirants are very pop
ular, both exceptionally fine fellows
and both amply equipped for the job.
If either would retire In the other's fa
vor. Rome doubtless would make it
unanimous.
Rather than choose between McCart
ney and Vandiver the average Roman
will prefer to take to the woods, in all
probability.
Those few people who just natural
ly will not be happy in this world, no
matter what happens, are viewing pes
simistically nowadays the overwhelm
ing Democratic majority In the next
house of representatives in Washing
ton.
Said one Geogian today. discussing
the matter: "It would be much better
If the margin of control yvere closer.
"When the margin is natTow. cen
gressmen are much afore depepdent
upon one another than they are when
it is wide. And the inevitable conse
quence Is that peace in'the family Is
more easily obtained and preserved.
“With a big, margin, factions arise
and mean family spats occur. The
temptation to row is much greater in a
big majority than In a small one.
"Democrats are not as easily disci
plined as Republicans, moreover and
while this may be to their credit In a
way, it frequently Interferes seriously
with the progress of legislation along
lines likely to stand before the country
in Its broader aspect.
“1 would much have preferred a nar
row margin of control. As an immedi
ate example of the tendency-to insur
gency in a big majority, I call attention
to the fact that Congressman H nry,
of Texas, even now is snapping at
Champ Clark and announcing himself
a receptive candidate for speaker of
tlfi* house!
"Imagine disputing Clark’s right to
be renamed the speaker! It makes me
tiled and it argues no good!"
There is, to be sutf'. mon- than one
grain of wholesome truth In what this
gentleman says -still, the victory yet
is so young that most folks' of Demo
cratic persuasion will pfefer to cross
no bridges before they reach them.

the honor of occupying the baker's doz- |
en of seats of the mighty, for the time '
going begging
Comes this pathetic story from The
Thomasville Press;
Tuesday morning while the big
press was running at a lively clip,
driven by an electric motor, the
head of a bolt in the machine flew
off and fell among a set of cog
wheels. Crash! Sna! Pop!
Bang! And all was over. Results:
A cog wheel two feet long was
stripped, and a large casting collar
that held the driving wheel in place
broke.
Gee whiz! And that was election
day, too, and Wilson and Marshall
sweeping both the state, and the na
tion !
A great many people are strangely
confused about the functions and op
eration of the “electoral college.” so
called.
The popular notion that the “elec
toral college" is some sort of national
Institution is all a mistake.
There are, as a matter of fact, 48
“electoral colleges"—one in each state.
The electors chosen, under the layvs
of the states, meet In the respective
capitals threof on the first Monday in
January and proceed to ballot, one time
only, for a president and vice president.
The results of these ballots are sealed
and sent to Washington by individual
state messengers, yvho must be chosen,
as must secretaries of the "colleges,"
from outside the membership of the
“colleges.”
These votes are delivered by the mes
sengers to the vice president of the
United States, or in case there Is no
vice president, to the president pro
tempore of the senate—in the present
case, to Senator Bacon, of Georgia.
Subsequently the two houses of con
gress meet in joint session, canvass the
entire electoral vote and declare the re
sult.
Joseph E. Pottle, brother of the ap
peals court judge, and solicitor general
of the Ocmulgee circuit superior court,
is an Atlanta visitor.
Mr. Pottle was accompanied on this
‘tip to Atlanta by a particularly hand
some gold-headed umbrella; and there
by hangs a tale.
Not a great while ago. Mr. Pottle
successfully prosecuted tor murder a
man in his circuit, and the brother of
the slain nutn attended the trial. So
pleased was he with the way Mr. Pottle
handled the ease that he sent the so
licitor, a few weeks after the trial, the
aforesaid umbrella and an even more
beautiful gold-lie ided cane. He was
under no sort? of obligation to send the
solicitor ,m t of course, for that of
ficial merely was performing his duty
under the law, and for that particular
reason Pottle appreciated the gift thor
oughly.
In all his practice as prosecuting al
lotney he never before was remembered
by any person in just that way .
Now that the Democrats have the
new congres: as.-iued. and th matter
of committee plums is being consid
ered, tile friends of Congressman-elect
1 'buries Crisp are talking him lor Mr,
Brantley’s place on the ways and means
committee of the house.
This is a high committee, and would
not ordinarily go to a new member, but
Mr. Crisp might not be held' strictly
within that rule, as he has been a very
important part of the house—lts par
liamentarian —for the past two years, Is
the son of a former speaker, and is
I very' popular among the members.
Mr. Brantley’s going out gem rally is
; regretted In Georgia, but the hope that
“Charlie” Crisp will land Brantley's
ways and means berth Is all but uni
versal among those who know Mr. Crisp
here in his home state.

FORSYTH AND LUCKIE
MOOSE TO FIGHT
ON FOR GEORGIA
Progressives Declare They Are
Pleased Greatly by Showing
They Made Tuesday.
Woodrow Wilson’s overwhelming vic
tory and his complete sweep of Georgia
has not daunted the Bull Moosers of
the state. Plans are being made by
Progressive leaders in Atlanta not only
to hold the strength that Roosevelt
polled Tuesday, but to continue their
attack on the Democratic stronghold.
According to these plans, the Progres
sive party will have candidates out in
the next congressional elections and it
is even declared that they will put out a
state ticket.
Stephen R. Rolles, of the Roosevelt
party, said today the leaders would get
to work immediately. Their sentiment
is unanimous in refusing to quit the
fight.
"Although our Georgia vote was
hardly as large as we expected,” he de
clared, “it was a surprisingly strong
one to the. Democrats. For the first
time since the war the Democrats were
so thoroughly alarmed that they had to
work to carry the state. In view of
this, we are far from downcast. I have
talked with all of the leaders and they
all agree that our start was so success
ful that no thought of abandoning the
new party should be considered.
"The same conditions prevail over the
nation. We have word from national
headquarters that the Progressives in
every state are going out after more
strength. The next congressional elec
tions will show- our gains.
"Tile women of Georgia will be given
a part in our work, which must be
largely educational right now. When
we have taught the people what the
Progressive party stands for, then the
work of organization will be easy.”
A definite plan of campaign will be
outlined by the Progressives in a few
days. •
SAVANNAH’S BIG NOISE

SHERIFF BLUFFS BIG
CROWD DETERMINED
TO WITNESS HANGING
DOUGLASVILLE, GA., Nov. 9.—Hen
ry Amos, the negro who killed Cain
Jones, another negro, in this county
last May, and who paid the penalty
with his life here yesterday, went to his
deatn in apparently the same uncon
cerned manner that marked his de
parture from the jail in Atlanta yes
terday morning. He made no further
admission concerning the killing than
he had made at his trial, when he
claimed self-defense.
Thousands of persons thronged the
streets here, doming from this and ad
joining counties. They crowded around
the inclosure about the gallows in an
effort to witness the hanging. At one
time the crowd threatened to tear down
the high fence, but the movement was
quickly checked w’hen Sheriff Baggett
ordered his deputies to secure the
names of all those who attempted to
destroy it and report them to the grand
Jury.
This was the first legal hanging ever
held in Douglas county.
