SMITH is FIFTY TWO
YEARS OF AGE
Governor of Georgia Celebrates
A Birthday.

ATLANTA, Sept. Gov. Hoke
Smith celebrated his Sind birthday
today. He was born in Catawba

of Catawba College. At 16 years of
age Hoke Smith left his native state

manned for a time engaged in the
study of law. Later he removed to
Waynesboro, Georgia. When he was
% years of age he stumped the state
in the interest of the city of Atlanta,
which was endeavoring to secure the
state capitol. From that time on he
continued to attract attention as a
speaker and public worker. In 1892
he managed Grover Cleyeland's cam
paign in Georgia, and when the lat
ter was elected PRESIDENT he appoint
ed Mr.. Smith Secretary of the inter
ior. He resigned at the end of three
years service to return to Atlanta and
again take up his law business and
look after his newspaper interests.
A year ago he was nominated for
governor of Georgia and elected after
a sharp contest in which Clark How
ell, also of Atlanta, was his principal
opponent.
