ON GEORGIA POLITICS
By JAMES B. NEVIN.
n. - nor Brown nowadays furnishes
food for speculative thought
.j;., jhout Georgia.
■ ■
The we e kly
press takes a con
tinuing delight in
wondering what
the governor is
going to do when
he gets through
governing, and the
daily press, while
not as regular on
the job. still de
votes a large
measure of space
•o ' Little Joe,”
and the future as
it may affect him.
If the governor
as any political
aspirations or am
bitions as to the
future, he keeps
them religiously to himself—he neither
affirms nor denies; he neither views
with alarm nor points with pride. He
has a. smile that is Sphynxlike and
bland and that’s all there is to it!
The Savannah News, in contemplat
ing the matter of Brown vs. the future,
figures along interesting lines, even if
t reaches no particular conclusions.
The News says:
Mr. Bryan recently wrestled with
the question, what shall we do with
our ex-presidents, meaning Mr.
Taft and Colonel Roosevelt. The
people of Georgia have a some
what similar question to settle. It
Is. what shall they do with Gov
ernor Brown when his gubernato
rial term expires?
By this question it isn’t meant
that he will not know what to do
with himself when he leaves the
governor’s office. It simply means
that he has proved himself efficient
In so many respects that the people
may want his services either as an
adviser or a leader in some othei
field of endeavor.
The Albany’Herald approves the gov
ernor, and thinks, with The Savannah
News, that there may be big things in
the future for ’’Little Joe;” and then
The Herald harks back a bit. and
thinks upon another phase of the
Brown problem.
The Herald says:
Some gentlemen who have been a
trifle slow to learn are, at least,
discovering that when once the
mind of Governor Brown is made
up ft is pretty apt to stay made up.
Once he decides that he is right, he
goes straight ahead, and some gen
tlemen whose plans and purposes
run counter to his own have been
unable to discover a steam-roller
heavy enough to flatten him out,
though a number have tried.
All of which suggests a good many
> nings; for if it be plotted and planned
to put 'Little Joe” in a hole, and the
end of his term in the governorship
drawing near, and if simultaneously it

people may want his services in some
field of endeavor” other than the gov

sort the payment of which is an im
portant condition in the voting
qualifications. Tax dodging is a
notable fact among many classes
of our citizens—especially those
who “don’t give a hang who's elect
ed”—and the higher the cost of the
necessities of life the more these
are prone to dodge their taxes, and
thus cut themselves away from ex
ercising their suffrage. Yours fra
ternally, BLANK.
The slump in the vote was general
throughout the entire country. What
ever it was that caused the falling off,
it can not be accounted for in sufficient
quantity by local reasons.
It may be that this correspondent's
idea is the correct one—certainly he
sets up a condition that exists every
where. A slump of approximately 1,500,-
000 is astonishing—and that is what the
slump amounted to.
All good Democrats will hope, of
course, that the problem of the high
cost of living will be so nearly solved
by the time another presidential elec
tion rolls round that the Democratic
nominee will get the 1,500,000 votes that
remained at home this time, and the
additional 1,500,000 new ones that will
come into existence between this time
and then, as well as the entire vote
Wilson got in 1912.
There is much repressed agitation
around and about Macon as to who will
be the next United States attorney for
the southern district of Georgia.
Walter Akenman 14 the present offi
cial, and he was appointed last March
for a term of four years. However, he
is subject to removal at the pleasure ot
the administration, and he opines “as
how ” he will be “removed” in due time,
all right—as painlessly as possible, but
surely!
Mr. Akerman says he has many
"warm Democratic friends,” but he:
fears they are not “warm” enough to
insist to President Wilson that Aker
man be left alone in the clover patch.
In the opinion of many, the contest
for Akerman’s assignment will be be
tween John T. West, of McDuffy, and
Daniel G. Fogarty, of Augusta. How
ever. Samuel L. Olive, of Bibb, is being
mentioned —and if he gets in the mix
up. unquestionably he will be a formid
able candidate.
Mr. Taft's recent suggestion that
"the civil service be extended to cover
practically the entire public service of
the nation” finds no sympathetic re
sponse in Democratic breasts nowadays
—so far as Georgia is concerned, any
way.
in this vicinity of the political vine
yard the idea is to get all the Republi
cans safely’ out and as many Demo
crats as can be crowded in, and then
talk about putting the civil service lid
on the whole business!
Until further notice, therefore, Mr.
Taft’s motion will be laid on the table.
Says The Savannah Press:
Notice nas been served subtly on
Senator Smith that if he would
let his opponents dish out
the patronage he might have a
walk-over for re-election. We have
not heard how he received this
proposition.
This must be classified as impor
tant. if true.
Who was the subtle server, and were
his credentials all right, and—when
The Press hears how the subtle serv
ice was acknowledged, the answer
might make interesting, not to say
highly entertaining, reading.
The suggestion, advanced by Tom
l.oyless. of The Augusta Chronicle, of
Editor James R. Gray, of Atlanta, for a
place in the Wilson cabinet is being
widely commented upon by the press
throughout Georgia—and generally with
entire approval.
All Mr. Gray’s fellow editors seem
willing to let factional differences sink
into nothingless, when it comes to the
question of landing one of the fraterni
ty in a seat of the mighty under Presi
dent Wilson.
ESCAPES FROM JAIL ON
EVE OF HIS TRIAL DATE
SYLVANIA, GA.. Nov. 21.—0 n the eve
of the day he was to be tried, C. E. Lee,
confined in the Screven county jail here,
made his escape last night. He took the
slats from his bed and pried apart the
bars of a window. He. took a mule from
the stables of a tenant of T. A. Mock, In
the outskirts of the city.
Lee killed L. H. Hilton on the streets
of Sylvania in April, 1911. and was tried
and acquitted. He has been in the courts
other times.
Last Monday Lee was convicted in the
citv court on a charge of carrying a pistol
without license, and with discharging his
pistol on the streets. There were charges
against him to be disposed of in the su
perior court today. He left a letter ad
dressed to the sheriff telling him not to
follow him, as he would kill him before
he would surrender.
DEATH SENTENCE ILLEGAL;
PRISONER GETS NEW TRIAL
MONTGOMERY. ALA.. Nov. 21.
Because there was no evidence sup
porting a conviction, the Alabama su
preme court today declared that the
death sentence imposed upon Tom Jack
son. alias Munson Jackson, a negro,
in Clark county last July for complic
ity in the murder of Chalmers Coats,
a brother of the Clark county sheriff,
was illegal. The case was reversed and
remanded and under the decision the
negro will be cleared at his new trial.
The defendant was Indicted by a
special grand jury and convicted at a
special term of the Clark circuit court,
after his father, Ben Jackson, had been
lynched by an infuriated mob for mur
dering Coats. Governor O’Neal subse
quently instituted an investigation into
the lynching.

PRICE OF COTTON
Strong Cables and Heavy Ma
nipulation Cause Big Gain.
Realizing Prevails Later.
NEW YORK, Nov. 21 —Strong cables
resulted in the cotton market opening
steady today with prices 13 to 18 points
higher than last night's close. This ad
vance came in face of a bearish govern
ment report on the total ginned bales as
of November 14. figures being 10.391,431
bales, compared with 8,849,898 bales gin
ned to November against 11.313,236
bales to November 14 last year. This re
port came better than general expecta
tions, but did not influence the market to
any extent. However, shortly after the
opening there was a wave of selling,
which was said to be profit-taking, and
prices receded 8 to 12 points from the
early range. Later prices rallied back to
ward the opening.
It is believed while figures are larger
than expected the market seems to ac
cept them as bullish, or rather ignore
them entirely, and rallies on the South
ern spot situation and the small local
stock in this market for the bullish fac
tors.
Advice from the Pell interests and
Theodore Price to sell cotton, combined
with New Orleans brokers selling, did not
weaken the market to any’ extent. The
larger spot people and prominent bull
leaders were noticeable buyers through
out the day and prices were firmly main
tained at the highest levels. The entire
list made new high levels for the season.
December rallied to 12.24; January. 12.23;
March. 12.36, and May to 12.37. Memphis
and other Southern poinjs liquidated; also
a large Wall Street house which has been
prominent on the bull side reported sell
ing. The market underwent the selling
remarkably well.
Leaders of bulls are strongly advising
their friends to buy cotton, which brought
about some speculative buying, and dur
ing the late trading prices ruled steady,
aggregating 15 to 21 points over the pre
vious close. Many anticipate a reaction,
but as the demand for the actual con
tinues heavy and used as the most potent
factor in sfinvilatir" t'-e ~-arket, a reac
tion is ignored by the bulls.
During the la«t oo u < ..cavy realizing
prevailed, resulting in the market closing
easy with near positions showing a net
gain of 4 to 22 points and distant months
net unchanged to 3 points lower than the
final quotations of Wednesday.

HAYWARD & CLARK'S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 21.—The New
York grade revision committee made only
a few changes; strict low middling tinge
was widened 5 points to 80 off and mid
dling tinge was widened 10 points to 200
off. All other differences remained un
changed. The differences on low grades
with low middling at 80 off are much
greater than those now prevailing in the
South, and the natural consequence should
be that futures should work above ours.
Liverpool cable said: “The market was
stimulated by the favorable turn in Bal
kan politics and less offerings from the
South.”
The census was rather larger than ex
pected, but the trade was prepared for it
and it had consequently no effect. What
influenced trading most today was the
bullish grade revision in New York, which
must tend to keep the stock in that mar
ket low and consequently give bull forces
additional advantage. Then again gin
nings are expected to show’ a rapid de
crease after November 14. Census reports
from now on are expected to make bull
ish comparisons with last year, and the
market will also prepare for a small gov
ernment crop estimate early In Decem
ber.
This estimate is generally’ expected un
der 14,000 000 bales, as it will not include
linters. All this and the continued dem
onstration of strength by the bull forces
in New York makes for a scarcity ot
sellers, ami the market advances easily on
evan moderate buying. There is no bp
position. Prevailing sentiment is in fa
vor of higher prices. First trades here
were at an advance of 10 points in sym
pathy with the higher opening in New-
York. A little recession followed owing
to the large census figures, but ail sell
ing was readily cared for and prices ad
.anced steadily. The Into sight for the
week looks around 693,000, against 639,-
327 last year. .
