WOULD BE THE WHOLE CHEESE.

Charges have been made against
certain elective state officials, assum-
ing that these charges are also true
as a matter of argument, does ii logi-
cally follow that. Governor Brady was
responsible? Mr.. Church was charged
with certain Irregularities and his dis
missal was brought about by Governor
Brady. Did Mr.. Hawley's leaders and
official organs come out in indorse-
ment of the governors laudable
course? Nay verify. Then they, in line
with their general course of incon-
sistency, termed Mr.. Church "a scape
goat" Why? 1t suited their purpose
to do so. Now Mr.. Hawley says, if
elected governor, he will take no re-
port from subordinates but will give
all things his personal attention. In
brief he will be the whole cheese"
Still the question suggests itself, If his
party is in sympathy with his posi-
ton, why did it go through the farce
of nominating men for the remaining
state offices on his ticket. MIR. Haw-
ley's generosity is without parallel in

A MARKED CONTRAST.

The contrast between the position
OF the Democratic party and the Re-
publican party relative to the liquor
question, is marked, and the latter
party cannot escape the import of that
contrast. Mr.. Hawley, the Democratic
nominee for governor says:
1.-THE Democratic party is now. as
II always has been. a party that be-
ieves in the rule of the people. We
belleve that every effort should be
made TO bring the governmental af-
fairs closer to the people and to let
the people determine them. If our
government is a reality, a government
or the people, by the people, and for
the people, then every effort to bring
legislation nearer to the masses should
meet with the approval of us ALL"
Yet his party takes a decided stand
FOR the continuance of the present
local option law and refuses to sub
init to the vote of the people whether
they shall have state wide prohibition.

tory. AS a matter of course, if he is
willing to shoulder the responsibility
of the whole bunch, he cannot be ad-
verse to saving the state the amount
OF their salary, and possibly he would
include the janitor's jon. The gener-
Jsity of Mr.. Hawley would be almost
beyond comprehension If a doubt did
not suggest itself. Why this doubt?
Well, Mr.. Hawley's ground is not evil
denced by record of having always
been terra firma. He will flop. At the
time of its enactment, he regarded
the present local option law as "the
most pernicious legislation that had
ever been enacted but now he poses

Careful investigation will reveal the
fact that every department of the
states business shows a healthful
condition. 1t will prove, conclusively,
that the state is being successfully

The Macon Telegraph, after much
inward searching, has reached the
conclusion that the wide popularity
of fried chicken in the South is per.
haps largely due to the fact that it is
dish quickly and easily prepared
and one within the reach OF all, even
of the poorest and of those whose
limited knowledge of the culinary art
begins and ends with the frying pan"
The Telegraph. we are glad to note
does not think that fried chicken is
the best thing that was ever cooked
and holds to the opinion that the
notion that nothing can be superior
to or even the equal Of this dish, like
many another notion, is the result
of narrowly confined experience" That
is true, 1t is matter of environment,
of education, of devotion to out-worn
traditions. Tho main objection to
fried chicken however, is to the
chicken Almost any other bird would
taste as much like chicken as the
feathered things which often masaue-
rade under that name.
