Comments on the Georgian S
Feat

The course of the Atlanta Geor-
gian in making an independent in
vestigation of the loose and unsup-
ported charges made by Thomas f.
Watson in the JeffersOnian against
the moral character and conduct of
Governor Hoke Smith and its ex-
posure of the groundlessness OF
those charges appears to us to have
been an enterprising and commend
able piece of work.
Mr.. Watson's career as common
slanderer for several years past; his
efforts to besmirch the private char
acerter of every political opponent
who refused to cringe to his lash by
wholesale and blanket charges COM
pretending the entire moral deca-
logue. and his repeatedly proven in
veracity in connection with such
charges leaves those observant OF
his antics but one intelligent con-
clusion to form-that the man is
insane on this subject and is men
tally irresponsible.
1t is nevertheless an outrage on
public edcency that such charges,
without any evidence to sustain
them, should be put in print and
spread more or less broadcast thru
out the state against any of its Cit
zens, but when they are made
against a man who by the voice of
the people has been twice named
for the high and sacred office Of
of chief magistrate of the state it
becomes a crime of too deep a dye
to fifty designate against the citizens
of the state collectively and individ-
ualIy,
The very nature and preposterouS-
ness of the charges, however, pre-
clude the governor-elect and his
friends from Identifying the author
by taking notice of them and thus
doubly render him a victim of the
foul and senseless assault.
It was entirely within the pro-
vince of the Georgian, however, in
its character of a public exponent
and in the interest of truth and the
public welfare to make an indepen-
dent investigation of the charges
and demonstrate the absolute falsity
of them.
In undertaking to do so the Geor-
gian has performed a patriotic piece
of work for which it is entitled to
the appreciation and gratitude of
the whole state.-Macon News.
The Atlanta Georgian of Saturday
devotes its first page to proofs Of the
innocency of Hoke Smith of the
charges of moral leprosy brought by
Tom Watson through his Jeffersoni-
an. The proofsseem conclusive and
will be satisfactory to nine tenths
of the fair minded people of the
state. Just what these fair minded
people will think of Watson cannot
be determined with such certainty.
The Georgian has done a valuable
service to the state, for the scandal
lous charges, which it seems Smith
would not dignity with denial,
were being believed by many and
they amounted to a reflection On the
state. ysts
1t may be expected that Publish
erSeely WILDE WatsOn's next victim.
