POLITICAL GOSSIP
Before . the campaign started 1
made the prediction that Senator
Smith wonld not come to Georgia to
contest for the Senatorship. Th 2
Macon 'l_‘elnfgraph said that when the
politicians down here began to sting
hfm with their darts no power could
k(*ép him in Washington,
The campaign is over and Senator
Smith has not put his foot in thoe
State, despite the fact that never
before was a candidate so outrage
ously misrepresented. The Telo
graph owes me the dope.
Weeks aoo ‘1 pradicted thal Guyt
MclLendon would run for Railroad
Commissioner. He wasg not men
tioned in that connection by anyono
else until the last day on which his
entrance fee could have been paid.
Then he got in, to the astonishment
of some folks.
Some other comments have been
verified in the developments and |
don’t mind saying that the Marietta
Journal's political prognostications
have been fairly reliable.

flarl M. Donalson, of Bainbridge
has been appointed Distriet Attor
ney of the Southern District to suc
ceed the Republican, Akerman.
President Wilson wired the Macon
News that Senator Smith had in no
wiay biocked the appointmont of an
attorney to ruccecd Akerman as had
been viciously cuarged. That ought
to settle it, but Wilson is only Presi
dent of the United States and who
would believe a president? Not

Hugh Dorsey spoke in Marietta
Monday before a court house crowd
ed with people. [ went to hear him
mainly to urge that he be given a
regpectfdl hearing iy any Hoke Smitn
enthusiasts had sought to inter
rupt him. Not a question was ask
ed him and not a single retort of
any kind was made. Mr. Dorsey was
generously applauded by Governor
ffrown’s ftriends and courteous'v
treated by friends of Senator Smith.
I was personally familiar with
every matter upon which he touched
and could in a fow words: have an
swered everything, but it was his
reeting, not mine.
In all my life I never listened to
just such a specch., It was carefu!l
iy prepared to magnify unimportant
matters which Senator Smith had
pot ‘‘put over,” to ignore the great
tiiings which he has done and to
pisrepresent him in other instance..
It " was destinctly a politician’s
supeech and a disappointment to me
because the readers of te Journal
40w that I have spoken in the kind
<st way of Hugh Dorsey as a politicai
icctor in Georgia. I had hoped that
v would develop into a real leader,
bat no man can build on a founda
tion of misrepresentation. TFor me, !
gropose to follow constructive work
in polities. llf the man [ stand for
c¢an’'t win fairly on real issues and
¢n truth he can get beat this vear,
next year .or any other year. The
z:fairs of this country are of too
muech concern to be settled by ap
peals to prejudice and by fooling thoe
v ople.
It is up to Hugh Dorsey to decide
wnether he will be a stump speaker
¢ a statesman. He made great ro
putation in the Frank case but that
has no connection with legisla
tion or questions of government. To
stack up a lot of quibbling and mis
<presentation against the construc
tive work of Hoke Smith, who in twon
vears and a half has accomplished
=t much in Washington, is childish.
“fr. Dorsey has missed an opportuni
t7. He has allowed his friends to
puall him before he was ripe. 1, hope
he will take batter advice next time,.
As 1 sat in the Court House and
listened to Mr. Dorsey's misrepre
s<ntation of the Senator and hvm"l‘l
5s shouts of ““Old Hoke' and “Hog- |
1-All”, T could not help contrastin ‘
%what he was saying with what .\‘mr?
ator Smith said tc me about Dorsey
whten it was reported that Dorseyv
might run for Senator.
“Suppose he runs, what will you
say about him?” [ asked.
“1 would say,”” he replied, “that h=
is a young lawyer of ability and has
won his spurs in the trizl of a zreat
case and I have not a word to sav
against him "’

“The nigger” is still a piece of
dynamite in Georgia pclitics. Tom
Watson knows that and he must
have told Render Terrell, for Render
followed Watson's lead in chareineg
that Lincoln Johnson was still haia
ing office in Washington ncarly twon
months after he had been fired. Rei
der says it was a matter of gram
mar. He meant to use the past
tense instead of the present. Sure
ly a politician ought not.to be blan
ed for a little lie like that.
If there is a man in this cotn
try who is opposed to niggers in of
fice it is the senior senator from
(Gceorgia. The last nigger wmembor
of the legislature resigned while hn
was governor, and ‘“‘the gentleman
from Liberty,” and “the gentleman
from Mcilntosh’ have not been seen
since. "Not enough uegroes now

It is pretty bum politics to chargo
any decent Georgian with being in
different to negroes holding office
and bossing white men and women.
That is one guestion on which tne
people of the State are united and
Render Terrell can go back home
with the consciousness that in this
matter he nas shown himself to ne
the choapest sort of a cheap politi
cian.
