Grover Cleveland, the former
president of the United States, at
noon yesterday.
It is said that the newcomer
resembles his parents in p ent of
good health, but neirtpr Mr.
Cleveland ior the three family
phys.cians will say anything in re
gard to the newcomer o'her than
that he is g'ti'g along nicely
and is a fine boy All afternoon
Mr Ceveland received at bis home
the many callers who wished to
pay th ir respect to him in honor
of the occasion. Some have con
gratulated the expresident person
ally, but many preferred to leave
their cards with congratulations
and best wishes for mother and
son.
A great many telegrams of con

Among the first to profess (con
gratulations by wire were Joseph
Jefferson, E. C. Benedict, former
Secretary Thurber and former

' IN GUBERNATORIAL RAC:’
> Has Kind Words to sav For the
Others.
, Mrs. Myrick, the gifted editress
of the rttnericus Tiin s-Rrcorder,
r i io an interview in tins morning’s
I Constitii'ion, places ihe tame of
! Alien 1). Candler first on the list
i-1 of gubernatorial possibilil'es-
Mrs. Myrick says:
“But as to the various candi
dates. 1 take them up jus* as they
occur to me. and will give you in
j brief my idea as Co the position < f
. each. First, Allen D. Candler, the
j plowboy of P geon Ro< st Tin re
is not a finer man in all Georgia
I I He is not an active c uididate, but
. should he enter the Ta e she ir.nx
, pected may happen.
Il he goes into it, he will give
> the boys more trouble than thiy
. are bargaining for. He is a clean
I man politically—there is nothing
small about him but his stature,
and he seems to have awakened a
response in the hearts of the peo
ple when he declared against pea
nut politi. 8 and small political
methods. If Candler were elected
. governor, he would have no ere
mies to punish, and I am sure he
, would make an excellent officer.
“Pope Brown comes from my
( rection of the state, ai.d like all
who know him 1 <m fend of him.
He enters this race, h >wever, han
t dicapped. He Las no political
, foresight at ail, for if be had,
would ho have ev p r declared against
the machine of the S’ate universi
ty? He is honest in tha' light, and
he is not. a man to back down
from any pcsition he has once ta
ken. He is thorougher y indepen
dent, and, rs I said, hsud capped
because of his honesty, sine-rity
. and lack of the tricks of t> e poli
. ticiau. You c n say for h iu that
jhe will be heartily supported by
all who know him -veil—and that,
■ i
after all. is the highest ei eoini
|um.”
For the other aspirants she lias
only words of praise and comtnei'-
! dation. She closes the iute:vi<w
. with:
“There may be dark horses. The
future only can determine as to
. that. But one thing is already de
termined about this race, nnd that
is that the man who is nominated
will make his race upon the demo
cratic platform as enunciated nt
Chic 'go, for that is the true demo
'craiic lai'li. and the people of
j Georgia are stronger in that faith.
if possible, today than they have
' ever been.”
