STOOD TRUE TO THEIR COLORS

If the platform adopted at the
Atlanta convention on Tuesday of this
week is a foretaste of what may be
expected, the people of Georgia are
going to be highly gratified with the
course of the Brown administration.
Georgia has seen politics played
and promises made with little or no
intention of fulfilling them. Cam
paign promises have been looked
upon as being like the proverbial pie
crust But the platform made at At
lanta by the leaders of the Brown
forces show that it is their deliberate
intention to carry out every promise
that was made during the recent me-
morable campaign. Every position
until the desired results are obtain
ed The public is being dealt with
faithfully and it appreciates the fact
Seven main features marked the
campaign. Five of them differentiated
the Brown element from the Smith
element in the body of voters. They
created the issues on which the peo-
pie voted AS regards two of the is
sues, Smith and Brown and their
followers practically stood on the
same ground Both subscribed to
the prohibition law, both subscribed
to the Acknowledgement amendment.
The Smith people charged that the
Brown people were not sincere in
this respect The answer is found in
two planks of the State platform, as
adopted by the Brown delegates,
pledging the party and its nominee
to both of these policies during the
next administration, the only term for
which it had any right to speak
The other five issues made the vot-
ers take one side or the other. The
Brown position was the reverse of
the Smith proposition That the
Brown faction meant what is said
when it went to the polls and voted
is shown in the platform, which pro-
vides:
That all capital invested in legiti-
mate enterprises in Georgia, whether
foreign or domestic, corporate or
private, shall have the equal protec-
ton of the laws and equal friendly
of those who admins
ter. the laws.

HERALDS OF REVIVING CONF.
DENCE.

''They were the heralds and the
in the business and industrial world
in Georgia"
That is how the Constitution de-
scribes the delegates to the recent
state convention.
The Constitution struck the key
note of the atmosphere of the CON
vention hall. 1t was literally soaked
with good-felloWship and confident
hopefulness. The feeling was con-
tagious and If any came to the con-
vention pessimistic as to the future
they soon caught step and were swept
into accord with the all-dominating
spirit of the representative Georgians
there assembled.
Three thousand men went back to
their homes from the convention to
spread the good tidings of a revival
of confidence that is swelling in vol
ume like river after great rains. to
carry to their neighbors and friends
and business associates the welcome
news that sober and sane Georgia is
in the saddle, that brighter and bet
ter days are ahead for the grand, old
commonwealth, that another area of
common-sense patriotism, of intelli-
gent moderation, of justice unswayed
by passion or prejudice, is about to
set in, and that the future holds moth
ing in store to discredit the buoyant
confidence that is asserting itself
from mountains to seashore.

Payment of pensions to Confederate
veterans in lump sums.
Contraction of the Railroad Com
mission to three members and the
abolition of special counsel to the

Primaries not before August and

The platform is a decisive answer
to those who charged Mr.. Brown and
his followers with insincerity or dup
licity.

Taft Resigns Again.
baltimore Amexcan.

When Secretary Taft announced
that he would eleven days hence re-
linquish the position of Secretary of
War he added another resignation to
his already long list
No man in official life in the coun-
try has so large a number of resigna-
tons from Office to his credit. He
had already given up nine offices
when he came to the War Department
from the Philippines, and his letter
of today places ten designations to
his credit on his upward stride to-
ward the Presidency
The first Office filled by Mr. Taft
was that of assistant prosecuting at
torney of Hamilton County, Ohio.
That he gave up to take a seat on the
bench of common pleas court. He
resigned that for place in another
court, and surrendered that to take a
seat on the superior court bench
He was serving in that capacity
when he was invited to become Solic-
itor General of the United States. He
resigned to take a seat on the bench
of the United States District Court at
Cincinnati. That was a life position,
but at the earnest solicitation of Pres
ident Mckinley he gave it up to ac-
cept the appointment of head of the
Philippines Commission, with the
distinct understanding that when he
had organized the government of the
islands he should be given a place
on the Federal bench,
When the civil government was es-
tablished as superior to the military
in the Philippines, Gov. Taft had to
give up the Office in order to take the
original appointment under the new
order of things That made the eight
lucrative Office he had given up in
following the course that duty had
pointed Then when he was urged to
become Secretary of War he resigned
from the Philippines governorship,
and now, with the Presidential goal
almost in sight, today he signed his
name for the tenth time to a paper of
resignation.
