THE SITUATION THIS MORNING.
AUGUSTA. Jan. 1916 A. M.-The situa-
ton. SO far as the question Of the election
of Governor is concerned, may be briefly
summed up as follows: Mr.. Lamson,
President OF tile Senate and Acting Gov
ernor, declines to qualify the Republican
Representatives who applied Thursday for
that purpose, he having decided after ma
tpre deliberation, and with the advice Of
able legal talent, that he has no authority
under the Constitution to perform the ser.
vice asked him. This decision places the
Republicans in a peculiarly perplexing
predicament. When the Senate met yes
terday, but one Of the Republicans. Locke,
Of Cumberland, was present, and he up
peared evidently for the purpose Of watch
ing the progress of events and oDstructiiie
the course of legislative events. Only a
short session of the Senate was held. but
the House continued ready for business
until nearly 6 o'clock.

An affaBIe Manner.

Much of the happiness of life de-
pends on our outward demeanor.
We have all experienced the charm
of gentle and courteous conduct; we
have all been drawn irresistibly to
those who are obliging, affable, and
sympathetic in their demeanor. The
friendly grasp, the warm welcome,
the CHEEKY tone, the encouraging
word, the respectful manner, bear
no small share in creating the joy of
life; while the austere tone, thestern
rebuke, the sharp and acid remark,
the cold and Indifferent manner,
the curt and disrespectful air, the
supercilious and scornful bearing,
are responsible for more of human
distress, despair and woe, than their
transient nature might seem to war
rant.
