GENERAL EVANS DECLINED.
WAS ! RENDERED STATE LIBRA
RIANSHIP BY ATKINSON.
The Governor Shows a Disposition
Not to Appoint a Campaign
ROunder and Pap
Sucker.
Sucker.

The Telegraph has information that
Governor = Atkinson recently offered
the position of state librarian
to General Clement A. Evans but that
the latter declined. 1t will be crafty
ing to the people Of Georgia to learn
that the bent of the governors mind
is i'm the direction of such men as Gen
eral Evans for the important post.
General Evans is a scholar and he
would have adorned the place and
maintained the library in its import
ant character as one of the splendid
educational agencies of the state. We
trust the governor will find some
equally capable person, whether man
or woman, for the office. The ap-
pOintee should not only be a lover of
books, person of culture and literary
training and taste, but also person
who understands something about the
proper employment of library in
order that it may adequately meet the
object of its establishment. 1t is a
place Of honor, and it ought MOTTO be
given to any mere politician who is at
tracted thereto because it is berth
with a salary attached, and who would
put the real work upon a subordinate.
If man is to be appointed he should be
a gentleman having some reputation
for literary and scholarly accomplish
ments and not a campaign pie hunter,
He should be a man known to the
schools rather than to the purlieus of
politics-a citizen whose daily walk
and conversation are above reproach.
He should, IN himself, give dignity
to the Office that would accentuate the
educate prestige Of the state. Cam
paign FOUNDERS and pap suckers should
be kept out of the library, and we are
glad that Governor Atkinson Is so dis
posed. Macon Telegraph.
