GOVERNOR SMITH.

After one of the most strenuous ana
bitter campaigns in the history of the
State, the election or nomination Of
Hon. Hoke Smith for Governor is the
result, defeating his opponents in a
most overwhelming manner. For four
teen months Mr.. Smith has canvassed
the State, making speeches in l44 of
] the 145 counties, meeting the people
face to face and discussing the issues
| of railroad rates and negro disfranchise-
ment with an ability and adroitness
that won the voters to his way of think
ing and they endorsed his platform of
principles at the ballot box.
No public man has ever been paid
such compliment OF confidence as this
endorsement of such great magnitude,
unless it was Alex. Stephens in his race
for Governor.
That Mr.. Smith will feel the respon-
sibility placed upon him no one will
gainsay, and it devolves upon him to
make good his promises to the people,
or disappoint their expectations.
To win Office at such great expendi-
ture of time, energy and money, is no
small thing or fowery-strewn path; to
fill that office with the great response
bility imposed, is no easy task.
That Mr.. Smith will be ambitious to
carry out his promises, all who know
the man, fully believe.
AS the Democratic nominee, it be-
hooves everybody to give that hearty
support in making his administration
rebound to the good of the peopleand
the prosperity of the State.

A WIFE'S LETTER.

The following extract from the letter
of an absent wife to her husband is
vouched for, but there is no need, its
genuineness speaks in every line:
"You will find it hanging on the
wall by the attic stalks, or in the box
on top of the sewing machine in Ellen's
room-the green box or the red one,
forget which Perhaps. though, it is ON
the top shelf in the closet in our room
left hand eide, if 1 remember right.
But look on the other side, too. If not
there, it is in the bottom drawer Of the
chiffonnier in the upper hall. That is
where I keep my patterns, and don't
unite ali the bundles. 1t is among them
somewhere. l am not sure but it is in
the second drawer from the bottom. 1t

THE SOUTH.

The Senate of the 59th Congress fur
nishes many illustrations OF what the
'old South was, and what the new
South" is. Compare Georgia's two dis
tinguished senators with thelrepresenta.
tives in that body from New York, the
Empire State of the Union, and one
need not go any further to ascertain
that the same high ideals which have
ever characterized the statesmen and
public men of the South in the past
are still present with those who now
serve in either Federal or State posi-
tions.
80 long as section or a country does
not change Its ideals of duty, of pa
trlotIsm, or Of political thought and
action, or Of social conditions, there is
no change in its people. The land re-
mains the same. Over mountain and
plain of the South the same sun shines
now as in that time it il said the "old
South" existed. Conditions have
changed, the people of the South have
adjusted themselves to the change
without any change in characteristic
sentiment or ideals.
May it be long time before immi-
grafton, or greed or any other cause,
destroy these attributes of the Southern
people, or efface the Americanism of
the only section in which it survives

The wasteful destruction of timber in
this country in the past is now being
exemplified by the importation of
