The president V—
was so pleased with both Toner and
Brown that that night at dinner in the
' white Douse lie had the Georgian placed
immediately at his left at the table, and
' the Pennsylvanian Immediately at bls
' right. One is a Democ rat and the oth
er a Republiitiit.
Governor Brown told the president
that he has two boys who know all
about Toner. "If he were a candidate
for presidetit. with’ that magnificent
ba: eball record behind him. 1 think my
boys might forget all tin family tradi
tions an<l vote for him. Republican that
he is." said Governor Brown *0 the
president.
"If ever J am elected president." fired
back Toner. "I certainly shall invite his
excellency of Georgia to be my secre
tary of agric ulture.”
Governor Brown says the governors
conference was deeply interested In the
Hoys Corn club show in progress in At
lanta while the governors were in ses
sion in Richmond. He thinks the suc
cess of the show —which seems to have
attracted groat attention throughout
the entire country—will be 1 line ad
vertisement for Georgia.
"Some of the governors actually
thought I was yarning, I think." said
Governor Brown, "w lien I told them
that many of those Georgia boys raised
mote than 150 bushels of corn to the
acre.
"It was a matter of sincere regret to
me that I could not get back to Georgia
in time to have a hand in the corn
show.” 1
Many old-timers, who served in the
i Georgia legislature' during the '9os, will
be grieved to learn that "Uncle Joe”
Mansfield, of Mclntosh, county, is dead.
“Uncle Job” was not the highest
browed legislator that ever decorated
the hall of the house of representativeß,
but he was the only man in Mclntosh
county forv years who was able to keep
a negro from represent Ing the county.
There always has been a preponder
ance of colored brethren in Mclntosh,
and time and again the county has sent
a negro to the house. Whenever “( Ti
de Joe” would agree to run, however,
the negro invariably got left, “Uncle
Joe” not only got the solid white vote
of the county, but a sufficient number
of negroes voted for him to put him
over.
There has not been a negro member
of the Georgia legislature in a good
many years now, but in the '9os. there
generally was one or two —either from
Mclntosh or Liberty, and sometimes
from both.
“Uncle Joe" was mighty popular with
his colleagues, and became more or less
of a pet of the house as time ran on,
afid he continued to perform the pa
triotic service of keeping down the per
centage of negro membership in the
same.
He died last Thursday at his home in
Darien.
John N. Holder, former speaker of
the Georgia house of representatives,
editor of The Jackson Herald, and one
. of Georgia's most prominent men, sug
gests the name of Clark Howell as
postmaster general in President Wil
son’s cabinet.
Mr. Holder thinks the suggestion
would appeal to the president elect, and
he believes Mr. Howell’s friends—who
are legion in Georgia—will rally to him
and that his ancient enemies will not
object.
This nomination will be received with
approval, no doubt, in a great many
sections outside of Georgia, for Mr.
Howell is known' from one end of the
nation to the other. He is th., senior
member of the national Democratic ex- i
ci utlvc committee—having served eon-|

THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS.TUESDAY. DECEMBER 10. 1912.
I legislature, is an Atlanta visitor today.
Colonel Johnson was a staunch sup
■ porter of Woodrow Wilson in the pri
maries. and has been reported a possi
ble applicant for some sort of diplo
matic mission abroad. The colonel
says, however, that he is not seeking
anything at the hands of the adminis
tration —that he merely is wishing it
well and hoping that it will be the first
of many Democratic administrations to
come.
Colonel Johnson is an ardent admirer
of William Jennings Bryan. He be
lieves the Nebraskan stands head ami
shoulders above all of them in tids
country -and possibly in any other —in
point of genuine statesmanship.
The Georgia railroad commission
finds itself in the middle of rather a
bad fix, as far as the blowing of train
whistles in this state is concerned.
The last legislature passed a law
greatly restricting the blowing of whis
tles,. particularly inside the eorporat'
limits of cities and towns, and now a
petitioner before the commission.com
plains bitterly that the’ trains passing
through his town do not blow their
whistles half enough!
Governo’’ Brown ha« many admirers
throughout Georgia, regardless, too, in
large measure, of race, color or previous
condition of servitude.
Delia Turner, a colored woman o!
Taylor county, recently became the
mother of triplets, and, in honor of
Georgia’s chief magistrate, she has
named them “Governor,” "Joseph” and
"Brown," respectively.
Colonel Waiter Steed informed the
governor of this new distinction thrust
upon him. and said lie thought it quite
a compliment tb the executive, and one
lie should appreciate profoundly.
