StSSI[JUDGE
Georgia Senator Gives History
of Terrell Appointment. No
Southern Democrat Voted
For Him.
Washington,—The history of the
confirmation of the negro Robert N.
Terrell, says a special to the Atlanta
Journal, as a judge of the municipal
court of the District of Columbia, was
s*nt to the senate today by Senator
Hoke Smith. He quoted from the Con
gressional Record, showing that the
negro, Terrell was confirmed on April
24, and that on May he (Senator
Smith) asked unanimous consent that
his vote on the confirmation of Terrell
he made public.
"On June 13,’’ said the senator, "the
record shows that unanimous consent
was given to publish the vote of al
senators with reference to the con
firmation of Robert X. Terrell.”
The senator had the clerk read this
vote into the record a second time.
This shows that the negro was con
firmed by a vote of 39 to 24, and that
not a southern democrat was among
those who voted to confirm. It shows
that Senator Hoke Smith as well as
Senators Mark Smith, of Arizona, and
E. D. Smith, of South Carolina, voted
against the Continuing,
Senator Smithxlaid:
“Of course we understand that all
nominations are considered in execu
tive sessions, and that even the votes
of senators are not made public and
do not appear in the congressional re
cord, except by unanimous consent. I
feel, however, that I am justified, in
view of the unanimous consent given,
to add that all senators who were
present are aware of the fact that
during the two and one-half months
the nomination of Terrell was before
the senate. I, on every oportunity, pro
tested against his confirma.tion and
spoke frequently at length against his
confirmation.”
The senators who oposed his con
firmation held up the nomination for
nearly two and a half months. In the
meantime many other nominations
were awaiting action. Terrell's con
firmation could not have been held up
longer except by a filibuster. This
would have stopped the other nomina
tions and have interfered seriously
with the entire business of the sen
ate
“The people whom Terrell was to
serve did not protest against his con
firmation The senators opposing his
confirmation under the circumstances
did not consider the confirmation of
Terrell of sufficient Importance to
stop the work of the senate with a fil
ibuster.”

It is vlso understood that as soon
as it is known that the convention of
cotton manufacturers will be held
here a vigorous effort will he put
forth by the M. & M. to land the an
nual meeting of the Textile Machin
ery Exhibitors’ Association, which is

Left Today.
Mr. Jackson left the city today for
New York and will go from there to
Asheville. Mr. Hickman will, of
course, be present at the meeting of
the board of governors, too. The in
vitation to meet at Augusta next
year will he extended by Mr. Jackson
for the M. & M.
If botli conventions are secured it
is proposed to have the machinery ex
hibit in the fair grounds and the ses
sions of the cotton manufacturers in
tile Lake View Casino. This would
he of considerable convenience to
those attending either convention and
since the two meetings are so closely
related the plan is t radically certain
to meet with favor.

Biennial Sessions Bill.
Atlanta. —Members of the state sen
ate were startled Monday by the as
sertion from Senator Irwin of the
thirty-fourth that the lower house
should he abolished and the senate
allowed to enact all legislation alone.
The remark of Senator Irwin were
made during debate on the bill of Sen
ator Gliff of the fourth, providing for
the general assembly to change its ses
sions and meet hi-annually instead of
once a year. The house membership
was so big as to he unwieldy, lie said,
and for that reason was several weeks
in getting under way.
President Anderson of the first spoke
in favor of tile measure pnd debate
was still in progress when the senate
adjourned.
A large number of local house and
senate bills were introduced, read and
passed in tlie senate Monday at an
unevenaful, routine session.
Senator Oliff of tile fourth intro
duced a Dill to change the present laws
so as to permit freight trains to load
and unload on Sundays.
Speaking for hist, bill to make the
legislature meet only once in two years,
Senator Oliff said the legislature at
present did little or no work in tlieir
present yearly sessions of 50 days.
Senator Irwin, of the thirty-fourth
spoke against the bill. He said the
present yearly meetings are necessary.
He said also that the state ought to
pay each legislator SSOO a year for
his work.
"I am kind of in favor of abolish
ing the house. With the house abol
ished the senate mignt then get down
to business and accomplish more
work,” said Senator Irwin. He said
it took such an unwieldy body as the
lower house at least 30 days to get into
motion.
Senator R. Randolph Anderson
stepped down from the president's
chair and spoke most strongly for this
hill.
A plank ia Senator Anderson’s plat
form for governor advocates biennial
sessions.
Other senators spoke for and against
the bill, suggesting many modifica
tions and changes.
Senator Allen of the twentieth said
Georgia has enough laws now to last
her for the next half century.
—“This country and this state —the
nation —is today legislated to death,
said Senator Allen .speaking most
strongly for the hill.
"As sure as you meet, you are going
to do business, a great many legis
lators think they have not done their
business unless they introduce a whole
raft of bills,” Senator Allen said.
Without voting on the measure, the
senate adjourned at 12:45 o'clock.

THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA.
“HUNCH”FAMOUS
THE NATION OVER
j Cheerfulest Character that Ever
j Smoked a Jimmy Pipe or Rolled
a Cigarette.
HOW HE WAS CREATED
j Featured in One of a Remarkable
| Series of Advertisements Which
Starts in Tomorrow.
Beginning tomorrow, the most
j unique and interesting series of adver
' ilsements ever printed in these columns j
; will appear at regular intervals. It is I
all about Prince Albert, "the national j
joy smoke" tobacco. This publicity
is notable from the standpoint of read
ing interest and illustrative treatment.
Prince Albert advertising has long
been a feature of the country’s maga
zines and it is so original and ap
pealingly human in both text and il
lustration that people everywhere iol- ,
low it with keenest interest.
You read it (in the language of
Prince Albert) “for what ails you” and
it will help you to "hear the bees buzz [
and tile little birds sing early in the i
a. m.” The language is so happily i
“HUNCH”
natural and so cheerful that to read
one advertisement makes you feel you
want to read more and more, just as
you anxiously await new chapters of a
continued story.
There’s it lot of quaint humor in the
“copy” and oddity and humanness of
expression. It seems to “inject some
real sunshine into your system.”
That’s because it's just natural talk
about how good Prince Albert really
is.
The R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. have
received thousands of letters about
their advertising. Folks Just seem to
get “happy” over it. You will.
Illustrations are as unique as the
reading matter. Some of the greatest
character artists in the country have
contributed to this new series.
It will interest everyone to know
that the odd picture printed herewith
was named "Hunch” and is prohab'y
the most famous of a long series of
notable Illustrations. You know him
—everybody knows him! That's why
he's so popular. He appears in largo
size in one of this new series of ads.
By the way, we recently asked the R.
J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. whether
“Hunch” was sketched from life or
was just "created." We found that
"Hunch” does not exist in real life.
It is said that when the artist was
given his instructions he was told 10
create a character “who lived in a
small country town, who was always
at tlie station when the train came
in,- knew everybody’s business better
than his own, was always broke, witn
money just in sight;’ hanpy natured
and just kind of glad he was alive if
he had his jimmy pipe and a tidy red
tin of Prince Albert."
'"Htnrch” was the result! Now he's
famous all over the nation. The series
of ads that starts tomorrow will cer
tainly interest you.
