Good Advice.

The Ledger respectfully calls Gov ernor Comers attention to the speech Of accordance of Governor-e Joe Brown of Georgia. Mir. Browns are the words of a statesman. not the rantings of a senseIess demagogue.
 They are words of wisdom-words spoken in line with those which the very Constitution under which we live contains-equal and exact Justice to all
 We trust our Governor will read Mir. Browns speech and get wise.

A SHARP oRIrrcrsM.

The New York Sun is inclined to be hard on our chief executive. It re- fers to him as having "a mouth with a thousand tongues" and specifics in this way:
 In the long perspective of history how ludicrous 1t is likely to seem naval nav matters; this Recurring of doc tors on medicine, of lawyers on law of financiers on finance, of athletes on religious duty, of naturaiists on na- ture, of civil engineers on engineer ing, of matrons on the functions of moth erhood; this indefatigable and everlasting featuring of somebody about something from q platform of officially assumed authority!
 That may be considered rather se- were, but we do not know that 1t Is un- just. Unless we account for 1t on the theory that Roosevelt is eaten up with vanity and overpowered by a sense of his own importance, we are unable to gee why he should take the liberty of featuring people on all subjects. just as though his own knowledge was un- iversal. We do not look on him as much of an expert on any of the sub l jects about which he is so ready 10 put himself up to enlighten others. but if he ever misses an opportunity to exploit himself we fail to keep up with 1t. Mouth with a thousand tongues is appropriate.

Georgia Is a progressive state and should be able to find some way to handle It's convicts that will be in ac- cord with modern ideas. The contract system is bad as a rule.

 There Is a tendency too prevalent in Alabama to mention the church afflli- atIons of candidates for office before the people.

that the republican majorities have fail
