there are various rumors, are to be
taken seriously, it is felt that it would
be better politics to wipe out the op-
position to President Taft at this
time, rather than to wait until a ficti-
tious sentiment might develop.
Officeholders there are who private
ly say they are in favor of Roosevelt.
While these men do little damage, as
their encouragement to the Roosevelt
workers is secret, they owe their plac-
es to Taft. The machine men think Il
will not be necessary to announce
anything more than the approach 81
the "crusher" to lead them to see
light
In addition to the officeholders who
will be brought into line, it is known
to the organization that several dis
trict leaders are not more than luke
warm toward Taft. While they voteG
for the Taft resolution in the count,
committee meeting. they did so un-
graciously. 1t is. realized that unless
these men are brought into line, thei
districts may pass a Roosevelt reso-
luton and thereby affect the appear
ance of harmony believed to be neces-
airy if New York state is to send u
Chicago solid Taft delegation.
In every district there are at leas,
a few Roosevelt men. That cannot be
gainsaid While the number is not
great, and at the present time they
are not particularly belligerent, it is
always possible that these men of NV
type" will get obstreperous and cause
the district leader trouble. In order
to kill off such reyolutionists, it Is
more than likely that every district
organization of the thirty-fiye will be
asked to pass resolution favoring
Taft within the next few weeks. co
that the actions of the county commit
tee will be well backed up.

great deal in declaring himself in
favor of secession. when his feeling
was so strong against it. He was not
d Shareholder. He did not train with
Toombs or Calhoun. He had a broad
r idea OF national government, al
though he was firm defender of
states rights. MIR. Stephens loved his
state and renowned his lifelong con
'lctions when he went out of the I'm
ion. Georgia appreciated his sacrifice
and loved him for the enemies he had
made. He died in the gubernatorial
mansion in Atlanta, died almost in
the very act of celebrating the birta-
day of Georgia in Savannah, the birth
place of Georgia 1t is noteworthy
that his birthday is practically Geor-
gia's birthday February 11th He
would have had it so, because no man
was more controlled by sentiment
than Mr.. Stephens. For a long time
he kept his rooms in Washington oc-
cupied by Henry Clay. He gathered
inspiration for his work and was con
tent if his frequent and severe Illness
'es were to result fatally, that he
should die in the chamber of the
great Kentuckian.
Last week the world observed the
centenary of Charles Dickens, But
not even Georgia has prepared a pro-
gram on the centenary of Alexander
H. Stephens. Born just 80 years after

ALEX. H.
STEPHENS
CENTENNIAL
THE STORY OF HIS LIFE
Believed in the Union, Yet
True to His State
Savannah Evening Press)


The significance of the birthday Of
Georgia is heightened by the centen-
NAL of Alexander Hamilton Stephens,
the great Georgian, who died just at
| ter the seSqui-centennial in March;
1888 The birthday of the state hal
been celebrated in Savannah with
more than ordinary interest, being the
one hundred and Fifteenth anniversary
| of the founding of the colony. Mr..
Stephens, as governor of the state,
participated in the celebration and de-
livered the address about the historic
event. Never a strong man, his age
and eXertion told heavily upon his
strength, and returning to Atlanta he
took his bed, never to finish his public
duties.
He had closed a national career by
term as governor of Georgia. Inau-
gurated in November, 1882, he served
only about four months, but in that
time he had given the state the best
and most conscientious service, attend
ing personally to the smallest de-
tails of the office This man had been
member of the national congress
and at the opening of the war became
vice president of the Confederate
States. His best work was probably
the Historical Sketch of the War Be-
tween the States a constitutional re-
view of the war which placed the
struggle on historic basis, and has
never been controverted successfully
If Alex Stephens had never done an
other thing the South would be in his
debt for this splendid work He was
Georgian of Georgians. He was ed
ucated in his own state and served in
10th branches of the state legislature.
He never succeeded in reaching the
United States senate, having been de-
feated just after the war by Gen. John
B Gordon, who at that time enjoyed
all the prestige of a military leader
II there was one thing Mr.. Stephens
was always champion of, it was the
supremacy of the civil over the mil
itary arm of the government. His
controversy with Jefferson Davis dur
ing the Civil War was upon this very
| point He was an ardent defender of
the rights of the state and throughout
his whole life called himself Jeffer-
sOnian Democrat.
And yet. at the outbreak of the
troubles between sections he was a
strong Union man. His speeches in
1 favor Of the perpetuation of the Union
attracted great attention North and
South. Mr.. Lincoln himself, just be-
fore his inauguration, wrote Mr.. Ste
! phens and thanked him for his con-
seryative public utterance Mr.. Blaine

DIET AND HEALTH
HINTS
DANGER IN COLD STORAGE
MEATS.
BY Or. T. J. ALLEN
Food Specialist

Recent experiments have
shown that cold storage does
not entirely prevent putrefac-
tive changes in meat and that
the changes that take place in
animal foods after they have
been long kept at a low tenn
perature produce dangerous tox-
ms which would not be devel-
oped by the ordinary processes
Of decay. It is we'll known that
In Europe it is customary to
allow flesh meats TO decay be-
fore using them, but that these
meats do not cause ptomaine
poisoning so frequently as cold
storage meats. Fish that have
been shipped In ice and are
then exposed to high ternpera-
ture for days before they are
used are particularly danger

NO sLEEPING-BAG FOR THEM
Laplanders Preferred the Snow and
the Open Air, and So Had
Comfortable Night.

Sir Henry Lucy tells in the Corn
hill Magazine a good story that he
had from hansen, the explorer. 1t
amusingly illustrates the hardy health
of the Laplanders.
Part Of Nansen's equipment for his
trip across Greenland consisted Of two
sleeping bags made of undressed
skins. On the first night Of the jour-
ney hansen and his two Norwegian
companions got into one Of the bags,
pulled the mouth tight across their
necks, and so slept in the snow with
only their heads out.
Before retiring to rest, Nansen saw
the three Laplanders he had engaged
for the expedition cozily tucked into
the other sleeping bag. When he
awoke in the morning. almost numb
with cold, he observed that the bag
in which he had tied up the Lapland-
ers was empty, and that they were no.
where in sight. He was afraid they
had deserted him, and scrambling
out of the bag went in search of
them. He found the three men fast
asleep behind hillock of snow that
they had scraped together as pro-
lection against the wind.
"Ah, MASTER" they said when ask
ed to explain this extraordinary con-
duct, I'VE couldn't sleep in that thing.
1t was too hot, so we got out and
have had a comfortable night here"
