ATLANTA. July Ia In an open letter
addressed to Gov. Hoke Smith. which will
be published tomorrow. United States
Senator Joseph NJ. Terrell says
Il am no longer Senator. and unless ne
qualities. the Hon A. o. Bacon ia the only
representative OF Georgia in the United
States Senate. NV pair is cancelled and
the President has been notified
Hence il is with Gov Smith whether he
will remain in Georgia to intermeddle in
State politics or go to Washington.
Il refuse to serve as Senator and yield
compliance TO his political necessities.
The letter Of Gov. Smith brought il
more clearly to view that he intended to
remain Governor for the ostensible p,ir-
pose Of carrying out policies when it was
for the real purpose of dispensing pa
tronage as politician. Many sup
ported him on the theory that it would
dnpense with him in Georgia politics.
but his conduct is prophecy Of his in
tended interference.
Il was further impressed with that
habitual arrogance and domination and
disregard Of principles which has char
acterized him. | further thought that
this highhandedness and despotic con-
duct We're all reflected in his arrogant
letter to me. an Ex-Governor and eX-
United States Senator. when he bade me
obey his direction.

in defiance Of the peoples right and IN
expectation that Georgians would forget
before the next election his unpardon-
able course and reelect him TO a position
which calls for unselishness. self-sacri-
flee and pure patriotism

H. M. Campbell

Every man worthy OF the name
has some striking characteristic
that marks him as individual. The
traits that made up the life OF
Harry Campbell can be expressed
only in the superlative degree. The
dominating marks Of the man
were his originality, his independ-
ence and his enthusiasm. lie was
the true type of what is known as
a hustler. Quick as a flash he
reached a decision. TO think was
to act, and not with a wild Judg-
ment. He was merely rapid
thinker. His thoughts went I'M
mediately to the vital point at is
sue and decision was the result.
Original. he thought for himself; ;
independent. it mattered not who
opposed his views; enthusiastic. he
set to work to put the idea into
effect.
He considered every man as one
of men. He had no exalted opln-
ion of rank and position. The
poorest laborer received the same
attention as the professional.
First come. first served, " was
more than saying with him.
Especially was he interested IN
the farmer. He studied his needs.
Weather conditions and crop re-
ports had his attention, aside from
the fact of his own gain. Ever a
strong advocate Of the State
Farm. he was constantly urging
farmers to study the work being
done there. He had a hope and
enthusiasm, plus. No farmer ever
went in his store but that he came
out feeling better, with 4 brighter
prospect. lie had the fascinating
ability to diSpel the "blues' all
too common 20 the men behind TIE
plow.
Several have tried to account
for this but only those who knew
him well could explain. It was an
intense sympathy he had Tor those
who were sincerely trying to make
good. In his quick bruSque man,
uer this was lost sight Of During
business hours nothing could de,
tract from the work in hand-eN-
ccpt some sickness or trouble OF
some friend or acquaintance. This
trait ran uuUercurrent to his char
actrr. lie was a man Of most ten
der sympathy. Outside his work
his one hobby was home and fam.
lily. On them he layished every at.
tcntion in his power, The pride Of
his heart. he gave his life to de
voted service to them and his
work. An interesting character
he was. Who will replace him II
this community? It will take t
strong man.
