Elk GOVERNOR HoKE SMITH
INDICATED
SMITH

The mills of the gods grind slowly
but they grind exceeding fine After
many months of deliberation in which
two factions of great state have
waited with deep interest, the supreme
court has handed down a decision in
the McLendon- Gray matter. This de-
cision to the friends of Governor Hoke
Smith--and they are scattered bread
ly all over Georgia-must come in the
nature of a pleasant and gratifying
surprise, as it has been heralded all
over the state that the expected rul-
ing of the high court would be ad-
verse to the well-known attitude as
sumed Sy the former chief executive.
And quite strangely enough, it was
his political enemies who seized this
grapevine special, eX-cathedra, and
Haunted it from Ratrun Gap to the
lights of Tybee!
We all know what Lincoln said
about fooling all of the people some
of the time! Well, just as long as
the supreme court of Georgia refrainS
from being fooled by clap trap meth
DDS and listens not to the voice OF
tthe tempter, remaining as the great
buiwark of the state, keeping inviolate
| it's rights, holding evenly the balances
of justice blinded to political passions
and intrigue, then alrs we'll in Geor-
gia and the advertisement of the bal
lot box will correct such errors and
calamitous mistakes as were made on
Jane 4, 1905
The pleasantest feature OF the de-
cision is that it retires forever S. q.
McLendon into the shades of private
life. from whose Cbscuring shadows
he was removed by the very man
whom he afterwards endeavored to
humiliate and to whom he was wholly
false What effect this decision will
have on the gubernatorial intentions
of Governor Smith, of course. we know
net. but that it will make him strong
er with the people there can be no,
ddubt. for it's a great victory for him
and an evidence of his masterful in
depreciation of the law.

of fact which did not appear in the
Lpdy of the bid, sHowever, it stands
to reason that if the Chattanooga peo-
pie can do this work with tar at $155
per yard, and the Augusta people fig
ure the difference between tar and
sand at 25 cents per yard then the
cost of sand would only be $130,
which would bring us back to our
proposition of saving of 81 $50 to the
city on the job
In the meantime il is to be observed
that the Catskill people, still claim
ing that they were not properly treat
ed in the last contract, refused to bid
for the new one, although their bricks
had been severely tested and met the
standard requirements
