Hoke Smiths Record.
Charlotte Observer.

SAdIlOtl0 OpSS1FOEs
Observer readers remember that
Hoke Smith just before his term as
governor expired removed Chairman
McLendon from the Craftsmanship OF
the Georgia railroad commission be-
cause, among other things, Of his al
legged improper connection with a cer-
tain railroad deal. Now the Macon
Telegraph has been delving into Mr..
Smiths record of some years past, gov
ing as far back as 1884. In that year,
it states the ex-governor, acting as
attorney for the Marietta & North
Georgia Railroad, paid five hundred
dollars to Railroad Commissioner
Trammell for bringing about the set
tlement of a case outside of the
courts. The Telegraph says this is 2
strange precedent on which to base
his action in the McLendon case. Mr..
Smith has, OF course, q reason for his
action In the former case and an ex-

And. Of course, Indigestion If neg
lected long enough, brings on seri-
Gus diseases in which Kodol cannot
benefit you. Some of these there
1s NO help for at all.
There are. in fact. very few all
ments which cannot be traced di-
rectly to impure blood. And i'm
pure blood is always due to a dis
ordered stomach.
Use Kodol and prevent Nervous
Dyspepsia
Kodol will effectua1ly assist Ma
ture to secure a complete restora-
tion of good digestion. It does
this by at once digesting all food
in the stomach and keeping it di-
gested, until the stomach is rested
and can resume it's own work. Ko-
dol removes the cause-and the
effect quickly removes itself.
When it is recalled that Apo
plsxy. Heart Disease, Cancer-and
even Consumption-are due tc
poor digestion and poisons thus

The centennial of an event is even
more strange and significant than the
anniversary of it. And most strange
and wonderfully inexplicable Of all
that two great events should have the
same centennial. 1t is fact worthy
of comment by all great modern mag
azine writer's and modern philoso-
piers of the most exalted rank. Did
man not make the dates and numbers
himself we would be led to think
there was some special providence at
work.
