III Owe" the state 70 tie effect
that Senator Terrell should retire
from the pending senatorial
race."-Macon News
The News never has and never will
be a political supporter OF Senator
Terrell. 1t has never trained with
his followers in the state and it could
never in a lifetime become proficient
in the school Of politics in the facul-
~ of which the senator is the dean.
That Senator Terrell has been hon
ored by the people of Georgia beyond
his deserts and to the exclusion Of
other and more able men. there can
be no question. even in the minds OF
his closest political cohorts. That
his elevation to the senate was the
act of the debtor making good his
political obligation to the creditor IS
absolutely true. That the people Of
the state would never have elected
him 10 the senate and never will. is
our honest opinion and that he should
retire from the race at this time, due
10 a multitude Of good reasons. should
he apparent to him. Even were ne to
ignore all things save his own selfish
ness, if the claim of every other Ge9r-
2ian should he scorned with disdain
by him and his welded theory of self
should force him on. !
would he not pause at the reflection I
that he is now and perhaps will for /
ever be physically 'incapacitated for
senatorial service 70 the state?
Is his insatiate desire for nnbrc
office and the emoluments it brings
SO strong that he would seek this
great position, which requires an
active body and active brain, know,

zing his inability to render upon the !.
people service to which they are en-. +
titled and for which he would receive
payment?

been the storm center in that fight.
Has he not received honors enough
at tie hands of the people Of the state
to warrant his act of giving way at
this time in the interest of peace?
Would not the act at least lie
graceful acknowledgment Of the
honors the democratic party of the
state has heaped upon him from time
to time ard d2at too when his de
mands were not well grounded eithe~
in point Of SIGNAL service or profound
ability?
These and other reasons should az
peal to Senator Terrell at this time
and he should, with due consideration
OF the peoples welfare, retire from
the public crib, at which he has bee
constant feeder for many decades.
