The Farmers Alliance controlled the Georgia
legislature by twO-thirds majority. The al
lance WAS not united, however, on the choice
of United States Senator, portion favoring
Gov. Gordon and another portion opposing
him. Gordon also rallied around him the
greater part OF the confederate soldier element
The movement against him lacked conference
and definite purpose and therefore failed, al
though at one time it seemed likely to succeed.
Gen John B. Gordon is a politician Of safe as
well as SNOWY qualities. Behind his fervid
eloquence is a broad and conciliatory spirit.
When he represented Georgia in the Senate his
course was characterized by much thoughtful
ness, but he lost ground at home by resigning
his seat at the beginning of his second term
when popular expectation was high. Gen.
Gordon will find it difficult thing to please
both Of the political eIsments to which he owes
his election.
