Atlanta, Aug. B-Almost in a riot, the
general assembly Of Georgia adjourned

Of the governor IN the Iobbies in the in
terest of his measures. The governor
was forced to work in this way or the
legislature would have adjourned with

mission and giving the governor the right

CHAMP CLARK FOR
MINORITY LEADER.

Kansas City Times.
AS the leader of the minority in
the lower House of Congress. MT.
Champ Clark of Missouri would be
ideally Democratic. Whether his per
sonality and tactics would be as eff
fective and valuable from the party
minority leader, John Sharp Williams,
may be doubted. But there can be no
question that Democratic Individual
ity would nave free scope under the
dominance of the Missouri member.
There is a Pike county freshness
and freedom about Champ Clark that
not all the wide learning he has ac-
quired nor all the sophisticatio1 of
Washington could efface- Even in
evening clothes Champ Clark gives
the impression of bucolic simplicity.
In debate he can hammer the breath
out of an opponent and yet give no
intimation of overlordship. He is
compaaionable intellectually, and one
could hardly imagine his denial to
another of the right to mold and free
ly express opinions wholly variant
from his own.
1t is such qualities that make the
story of his probable selection to
succeed Mr.. Williams SO entirely
plausible. The inestimable privilege
Of being different" is cherished by
tine Democrats. The coacomitant right
to oppose their own associates is dear
to the national Democracy. The CO.
h~esiveness which has enabled the
Republican representatives to win
so many victories for their party may
be admired by these Democrats for
its effects; but the power, or even
the wish, to emulate IL Is hopelessly
alien to their makeup. The heritage
II glory for the Democrats in con
gress appears inexorably to be linn
tied to glory in defeat

minority the Pike county statesman
would eem to be the predestined
