SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS ON GEORGIA POLITICS By JAMES B. NEVIN. , There never was a president of the j United States with as many "old homes” . as M oodrow Wilson seems to have — t ITIOSt of thftin in 1 ■Ek "3 t BL . . e < v must oi mem in the South, too — and now practi cally every- one of them is clamoring to be made' the “winter capital” of the nation. It is quite an interesting and helpful thing to a town made the “winter capital," as Augusta can testify, for it means that the president and his immediate family, both personal and official, will make that the center not only of the nation’s business affairs for many weeks each year, but a center ot much social gaiety as well. The reason why the president-elect has led such a nomadic life, particularly ' in his youthful days, is that his fa ther was a Presbyterian minister, and ! all ministers are, in a sense, Itinerant. ' Staunton, V&, has the first call on 1 1 the president-elect, for It was in that 1 quaint old town that he was born. ' In Columbia, S. C„ he spent several years of his boyhood. The old Wilson 1 home still stands there. r At Augusta, Ga., he went to prepara- 1 1 tory school, under Professor Joseph T. ' Derry, now statistician of the state de partment of commerce and labor. The next president spent a few brief ' y-ears—a more or less briefless barrister ( —practicing law- in Atlanta. He was living in Savannah when he married a Georgia girl—the daughter of Dr. Axson, a Presbyterian minister ■ —who was reared in Rome. < • Clarksville, Tenn., has its claim, for , there he spent many vacations when ( his father was president of a local : . Presbyterian college. Princeton, N. J., probably has the i largest tag on Mr. Wilson, however, since he was at the great Presbyterian university- there so long as student, pro fessor, and president. And now, after March 4, his resi dence will be in the white house, Wash ington, D. C. Can you beat it? Il hardly seems possible! An illuminating sidelight is thrown upon the fine character of Senator Jo seph M. Terrell by the fact, disclosed only recently, that the senator, long before he was stricken with paralysis in Washington, knew that he was get ting on dangerous ground physically and that his arteries might harden within him rapidly short no tice. * It is significant in that, while the senator knew this, lie carefully con cealed the fact from his friends, and even from his relatives, save those of the closest character. His disinclina tion to inflict trouble or pain upon those he loved was the cause of his secretiveness in this matter, of course. For more than eighteen months be fore he was stricken in Washington, Senator Terrell had been on a very strict diet—a diet prescribed to ward off in such measure as it might the final blow that laid him low. His most intimate personal friend in the capital, perhaps. Secretary of State , Phil Cook, did not know this until long after the senator had become a victim . of paralysis. Even after he retired from public life, and was bravely fighting to get , back his strength, Senator Terrell was uncomplaining and continually pro tested that all vet would “be well.” The one work of his two administra tions as governor of Georgia in which he took the most pride was the estab- • llshment of the eleven congressional district agricultural schools througnout . the state. He was reared on a farm, , and the agricultural interests of the state were the closest to his great heart always. But of that supreme achievement he spoke modestly, and with little refer ence to himself—indeed, in sickness or ' In health, Senator Terrell seems to have thought of himself less than of any’ one elee State Game Warden Jesse Mercer believes that no law of Georgia is more persistently or outrageously violated than the one governing the gathering and shipping of oysters, and now that the oyster season Is well open, and particularly because consumers of oys ters In interior cities need protection in the matter of oyster supply. Mr. Mercer has gone on the warpath, and pro poses to weed out the violators of the law. Discussing the oyster industry and the looseness of some shippers, canners and gatherers, Mr. Mercer said: “We are going to find out if the peo ple in Georgia want the law as it stands enforced, or If they want It changed. It Is not my purpose to ride roughshod over oyster canneries that may be vio lating the present law without giving the owners due notice. The fact is that the law regarding the taking of oysters has been so long disregarded in Georgia that there are few people who know there are few people who know there are such laws All the negroes know is to take a boat to the oyster beds and fill it up. They are not concerned with whether the beds are private beds or public property. “It will take at least three years to restore conditions' In Georgia in the oyster growing Industry. The keynote to the situation Is the negro oyster gatherer, who takes the oysters wherever he can find them, without re gard to the future. If we can close this negro market, the oyster problem large ly will be solved The industry is too valuable to have it destroy u by t.imu who are too Mind oi selfish to see tin' I need of protectin'’ t* I THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS.MONDAY. NOVEMBER 18. 1912. Editor Thomas W. Loyless, of The Augusta Chronicle, suggests James R. Gray, of Atlanta, for a cabinet port folio under President Wilson. Says The Chronicle: If President-elect Wilson is look ing around for one or two Southern men of the right caliber for cabi- - net positions; men combining a few points in their favor like these — First, fine business and executive ability; in other words, natural ca pacity and training to fill a cabi net position acceptably. Second, absolute devotion and loyalty to Woodrow Wilson and the things the president-elect stands for; not merely since the Balti more convention, but all along. Third, real service, not only to the nominee, but to the party; a really effective leader in the “pro gressive” wing of the party here in the South. He will have to go a long ways and make a close search to find a single Southern man who so com pletely’ combines these qualities as Hon. James R. Gray. William H. Burwell, for sixteen years a member continuously of the Georgia legislature, and probable speaker of the next house, has been very sick at his home in Sparta. Mr. Burwell was able to get down to his office Thursday for the first time In something like thretj weeks, and still is far from completely recovered. He thinks, however, that with proper care he will be all right again shortly. There isn’t a member of the legisla ture who has more friends than Bur well SCOTTISH RITE REUNION AT SAVANNAH THIS WEEK SAVANNAH, GA..

A portion of the proceeds of the evening will be turned over to the Ad club as a nucleus for the 1913 fund of the Associated Charities. The Ad Men and campaign workers will attend the show in a body Thursday evening. Arrangements have been completed by the carnival committee of the Ad club for a monster military’ pageant and carnival on the principal streets of At lanta on Thanksgiving night. Chair man William F. Parkhurst, of the com mittee, has procured the services of Marist college cadets, th* Filth regi ment, the Atlanta light artillery, the Old Guard of the Gate City Guard, the Georgia Military academy cadets, the Red Men drum and bugle corps and several other organizations for this evening. The parade bids fair to be one of the most showy and interesting held in Atlanta during recent years. Major Eugene Schmidt, commandant of Marist college, has consented to act as grand marshal of the carnival and pa rade. The carnival will be given under the auspices of the Ad club as a bril liant ending of the whirlwind subscrip tion campaign conducted by its mem bers in behalf of the Associated Chari, ties.
