Charles A. Towne Is here. He hasn't
any business, one might suppose. al a Re
publican convention. but Towne is foxy.
and Is looking for information that Will
lam Jennings Bryan can use I'm his busi-
ness. Mr. Towne is a standing candidate
for the Democratic Vice Presidential nom
ination-a perpetual candidate one might
say. At Denver his name will again be
suggested. even though Ii isn't presented
After he had looked over the field here
he delivered himself Of his opinion. Den
yer will be a repetition of Chicago In one
particular" said he. "The allies will make
no more headway against Bryan there
than the Republican allies made against
TAFT here. Just as the opposition TO Taft
collapsed at the first cross roads. so the
opposition TO Bryan came 10 naught after
the first Outburst."
Apropos Of the reports Of the steam roll
ing tactics of the Taft national committee
machine. Victor Rosewater. a delegate
from Nebraska and a newspaper. editor.
recalled the following story often told by
his father:
In Omaha in the old days" he said.
there was local character named
Strickland that everybody called Strlck for
short Strick Gabbled in politics and was
something Of a boss. On one occasion
he secured control of a majority Of the
delegates to a convention, and il looked
to him as though all the men ne wanted
would be put in nomination. The conven-
ton was held over n saloon. During the
sessions delegates frequently went down
stairs to get a drink, so that the number
OF those actually present fuctuated
Whenever the opposition saw chance
ii would call for a division. which the
chairman. who was friendly to them
would grant, and then rule that theirs
was the victory. To his anger and
chagrin Strick lost half Of the prizes for
which he had fought so vigorously.
When the convention adjourned Stricl5
exclaimed:

DR.. Homan, president Of Will

students of the High School and the
Seventh and Eighth grades on Mon
day morning last, December I. The
title of the talk was "Racetracks.
DR.. Homan mentioned in commenc-
ing that we had doubtless had talks
on various subjects ranging from
How to make the most of Oppor-
tunities," 20 Fire Alarms" and for
this reason had decided to seek a
new line OF thought. Various ex-
amples were given to show the
worth of perseverance and the
reward of diligence; in fact the
whole talk rang with that good ad-
vice of Don't be a gutter"
The words of DR.. Homan were
greeted by hearty applause by the
students. In closing he reminded
us of that oldest institution of learn
ing, in Oregon, Willamette UniYer-
sity and gave us all an invitation to
attend there when we had finished

ON Mr. Hardwick for having dared to oppose
him, gave him an inferior committee appoint
ment, the press of the whole state should have
denounced him for such petty, puny, puerile
perversion of his prerogative as minority lead
er. Instead of that, there were some Georgia
papers who actually rejoiced at this injustice
and damage done their state by this man un-
worthy Of, because unfit for, leadership.
And this because Mr.. Hardwick was and is
supporter Of Hoze Smith
supporter OF Governor Smith; in other
words, because he is with the people. For
this reason these papers not only condone the
injury an unfit leader has done their state
out of a feeling of personal revenge, but they
jubilate over it.

Dear Sir: Some of the Republican newspa-
pers and such so-called Democrats as Mr. Bel
mont, after careful delberation, no doubt,
have announced that Gov. johnson, Of this
state, is conservative radical"! Now this
is a new species of politician in this part Of
the country, and some Of the Governors
friends are apparently alarmed lest the con-
sentative radical" belongs to tribe more
bloodthirsty even than a populist Various
ones have asked me what conservative
radical" really is, and ann cup tree," so

political term or appellation of ''conserva-

ton. If ann wrong, would like to be cor

HON. r. w. HARDWICK.

HON. T. w. HARDWICk.
The Dawson News, referring to the commit
tee appointments given by Mr. John Sharpe
Williams to Hon. T. W. Hardwick and in re-
ply to The Herald's comment on the same,
says that "Mr. Hardwick has been treated as
if he were joke" and that FFThe Tenth dis
trlct has heretofore been fortunate in having
congressman who was not looked on away
from home in that light
This is not only unkind and unjust, but it is
Untrue and inspired by enmity. Perhaps our
dear contemporary, in taking it's cue from
greater sinners than itself, does not recognize
this? The matter having been brought to its
attention and presented in it's true light, The
News will no doubt set itself right.
It is not true that the Tenth district has
heretofore been represented in congress by
men who have been treated by the party boss
es in that body as they deserved. The Tenth
district is noted for the able men it has sent
to congress, men too great to be mere pup
pets to be pulled by the wire working bosses,
and for this reason they were punished as
John Sharpe Williams has punished Tom
Hardwick. Alex Stephens was one of these.
Tom Watson was another and there were
still others. Their offense was holding the
interests Of their constituents above the petty
schemes of the party Bosses and for this
they were treated, as Hardwick has been
treated, as if they were-F "a joke" as our dear
contemporary is pleased to express it.
Mr.. Hardwick had a better committee APP
pointment in the last congress than has been
given him now. Was he less "a joke' then
than he is now? Has he done anything since
then to make him more of ga joke? If not,
did not the ripper experience of two years
service entitle him to better appointment,
instead of the lower one given him?
But the real truth is known to ALL Mr.
Williams, because Mr.. Hardwick was a man,
and dared to exercise his own Judgment when
it differed from the schemes Of Williams, re-
venged himself by giving Mr.. Hardwick ap-
pointment on a committee which is kept only
to enable the party bosses to furnish offending
members.
An injury to one is the concern Of all. A
Georgia congressman cannot be injured with
out the entire state being made to suffer there
by. When Mr.. Williams, to revenge himself

GOVERNOR HUGHES AFTER GAMBLERS.


Governor Hughes Of New York has under
taken the greatest work of his career He has
begun the fight that has for its object the
breaking up of race track gambling in New
York City. His annual message to the Leg
lslature contains his recommendations for the
passage Of laws that will prohibit betting on
the races, and already the powerful race-track
pool has raised money to fight the passage Of
all measures that may be introduced
There is 81 100000 invested in race tracks
in New York, and $5O,0O0,000 in horsefesh.
There are a number of men engaged in the
business Of horse racing who count their for
tunes by the millions. All Of these forces
will be against the Governor, because the stop
ping of the betting on the races means stop
ping the races.
The only thing that makes these races profit
able, in spite of the enormous cost Of the
business, is the opportunity it gives men to
gamble without being held up to public dis
grace 1t is the fashion to bet on the races,
and no one feels ashamed to do this improper
and immoral act because it is one of those
evils that are winked at.
1t is a courageous thing for Governor
Hughes to do, and a patriotic attempt to
break up this pernicious practice of betting
on the races
Gambling at the race track is responsible
for as much human misery as any great evil
that know of.
1t leads to disappointment, to poverty, to
ruin, to crime. It causes the downfall Of
men and women who are led by its fascination
to commit indiscretions and then crimes in
the hope of retrieving fortunes lost at the
race track.
I have seen forty-two thousand people gath
cred under one inclosure at one Of these
tracks, and of the forty-two thousand, more
than two-thirds of them laid wagers.
If Governor Hughes succeeds in stopping
the race track evil, he will build himself
monument that will last long after marble
shafts have crumbled away.-The Jacksonville
Sun.

paw schuman won his own game here
this Afternoon from Richmond in the
fourteenth nnirvg with a clean drive
to centre. the fihal score being 3 to q.
The game was one OF the hottest and
best played OF the senson. The Law.
makers went through without an error.
but the locals made one In the thir-
teenth and another in the fourteenth
on hard chances.
Revelle was not hit hard but the
Shoemakers punched on him In the
third and fourteenth for three
hard through the game. though after
the second he was invinciblc with men
on second and third. and only once
did he yield the hit that meant run.
This was In the seventh. when Cowan
was called out for cutting third base
on Heffrons drive to centre. In nine
different innings clean single to the
outfieds would have given tho Law
makers another tally. but they could
not solve schuman's delivery when
these 8pinches occurred.
Richmond started off In the first
with base on balls to Heffron. who
stole second and scored on Riggs's
triple over centre. In the second, with
one out, 1son singled and piifered, 70
score on cowan's double. yhe Shoe
makers tied the score III the third
with three scratchy hits past the in
