Opening Of the State Camnaign.

Opening Of the State Campaign.
On last Thursday ex Governor
James M. Smith delivered n
speech at Talbotton on the politi-
cal situation. He announced as
his platform, opposition to the
railroads, and advised the people
to stand by the railroad commits
sion and refuse to elect railroad
director or attorney to the Office
of Governor. He hit Gov. Nc
Daniel several hard licks. The
ex-Governcr is right on some
points and wrong on a good many
more. His advocacy Of the rail
road commission is, in the judg-
ment of some people, right, but
he should not allow his soreness
over the failure of Governor Nc
Daniel to re-appolnt him as COM
missioner lead him into an attack
on one of Georgia's purest men
and best Governors. Besides, it
is entirely too early to start the
political pot. 1t will boil lively
enough before the convention
meets without any special effort
in that direction, and we say let
it alone as long as possible.
Good crops are of much greater
to the people of Geor-
gia than good governors, and our
advice to the people is to make
the crops and let candidates take
care of themselves.

The following, flom the Way
cross Headlight, is applicable to
some of the boys Of Dawson:
We hear, from church-goers,
that some of the boys of the town
are the canse Of much annoyance
at the churches. Some boys think
they have accomplished some
thing smart when tley make noise,
say sharp things about the peo-
pie, stare at the ladies, squirt to-
bacco juice aud play the fool at
the churches. When they arrive
at maturity they will wonder how
they escaped the fool killer.

NEARLY all the recent strikes
participated in by railroad and
factory employees and miners have
been abandoned. In nearly every
instance the strikers failed to ac-
complish their purpose. No man
will deny that laborers have rights
that should be respected, but it is
absurd for them to attempt to
control the business of their en-
ployers. Strikes are wrong in
principle.

We were mad last Saturday
when we opened our mail and
found no Macon Telegraph, and
many were the condemnations
heaped upon the head of the mail
ing clerk of that establishment
We wished for somebody to give
him dose of the popskull liquor
sold by the average saloon in that
city so that his head might ache
and throb for two weeks, aud, if
anything worse could happen, we
wanted that visited upon him also.
Our anger did not cease until
Sundays mail, when the paper
came in on time and explained its
non arrival Saturday. AS It's
"forms" were being sent to press
at 4 o'clock that morning they
were accidentally knocked into
''pi," which necessarily delayed
the publication of the paper until
all the type could be reset. Ev-
erything is all right now, and the
progressive and aggressive Tele-
graph comes with the regularity
and freshness of yore.
