Says The Savannah News Of yester-
day:
If the members Of the Georgia
legislature were compelled to do
what Governor Brown has done
voluntarily, namely. draw no pay
when funds in the treasury are low,
we should have a speedy change for
the better in the states financial
condition.
1t is a fact-not made known bv the
governor however, but through the
state treasury department-that during
all the time the states funds were so
low, last fall just before and after the
state was compelled to borrow In order
to tide over and pay the school teach
ers small percentage of their overdue
salaries the governor did not draw any
of his salary.
All other state house officers were
paid, but the governor merely did not
issue "a warrant for his own salary. For
five months he served without drawing
cent from the treasury.
And he hasn't paid himself off yet,
moreover!

torially, he always and ever was fault
less-indeed. In the hot days of July
and the hotter days Of August, Payton
Of Worth, clad in immaculate white
linen, serene, cool and comfortable, was
"a restful sight for tired eyes and a
more or less joy forever!
Mr.. Payton says he has forsaken the
sordid way Of politics ana will devote
himself hereafter to the more serious
business Of practicing law. Il Is un-
derstood that Mr.. Payton might have
returned to the next house for the mere
asking -but he never could see his
way clear to the asking.
He says he will rest content upon his
Legislative record and laurels thus far
established and obtained.
