Georgia Republicans Of four years ago
laid down" on Taft in this years
presidential election. This is shown by
an analysis of the vote cast Tuesday
and that Of 1908.
Four years ago there were approx
mately 1873, 900 votes cast in Georgia.
This year the number was, in round fig
ures, 10000. This shows slump of
1900. when growth in population
would have warranted an increase of at
least 1000.
The Democrats in Georgia last Tues
day polled approximately $4,000 for Will
son. against $1,000 for Bryan in 1908.
This is a Democratic gain OF 10000.
1t is probable that 10000 OF these were
among the II 900 who voted f6r Wat
son on the Populist ticket four years
ago. The Democrats accordingly brought
out enough of the stay at home voters
of past years and won back enough of
the Democrats who before voted for
Taft TO increase their vote 10000, thus
producing the 10000 gain. There is no
doubt that several thousand VINO had
failed to vote in 1903 were drawn to
the polls last Tuesday by the strenu-

EXHIBITS Of CORN
TO NUMBER 5000
Girls Canning Clubs Will Have
Displays in Addition at the
Maize Show.

With reports coming in to the Cham
Der of Commerce from all of the Geor-
gia corn club districts it was estimated
today that about 5000 individual exhib-
its will be placed in the state capitol
for the Georgia Corn show, December
5 to 6, inclusive. This will be more
than double the number of last year
The southwestern district has prom
Used 700 exhibits. Most of these are on
display at the Triton fair now. There
will be 500 from the Augusta district
and 427 from the northwestern district
These figures already are known II is
estimated that the Atlanta district win
have 500, the Savannah district 800 and
the Columbus district 300. This makes
a total of , ~. and does not take into
account at all the exhibits OF the girls
canning clubs. which viii be an ex-
tensive and important feature of the
snow.
G. e. Rice. agent for the corn clubs
in the Augusta district has written
positively that he would send here 500
exhibits from that section. Mr.. Rice
says he has some very strong exhibits.
with a high average. the maximum for
the district being 1918 bushels raised a
a cost of sixteen cents per bushel. This
is a pretty good record and there win
be very few to surpass it in the entire
state.
Augusta Boys Can't Come.
Mr.. Rice expresses deep regret that
the dates for the Augusta Corn festival,
which were fixed in advance of those of
the Georgia Corn show should conflict.
because, he says, he will be unable on
this account to bring the corn club
boys from that district to Atlanta. De-
cember is boys corn club day in Au-
gusta. the same day on which the
Chamber of Commerce will tender
dinner to the corn club boys here
DR.. William Bradford, of Cedartown,
corn club agent in the northwestern
district. has written a letter promising
definitely 427 exhibits from his district.
The number of exhibits from those
counties where local contests have al
ready been held will be as follows:
Barlow county, so; Chattooga. so;
Whitfield, 40; Gordon, 30; Polk. 30:

New York, March 2o-Additiona1 ex-
plantations Of what he mean by the
"reyiew of judicial decisions and re-
iterations of his belief in the recall of
judges, the initiative and referendum
and direct primaries as the machinery
through which ga new and radical ap-
plication of the old principles of JUS
tice and common honesty" is to be
made for the purpose of promoting a
genuine popular government in Amer
ica,' are given In the current number
of the Outlook by Colonel Roosevelt.
These explanations are put in the form
of to a catechism.
In reply to the question: do you
believe in the review of judicial de-
clsions' by state courts, and what do
you mean by it?" Colonel Roosevelt
says:
81 do. What I mean may be fully
expressed by the phrase, the right OF
the people to review certain judicial
conditions which nullify the laws de-
manded by the people In the exercise
of the police or general welfare power
on the ground that these laws are UNI
constitutional The constitutions of
the separate states are In daily process
of making by the people OF those
states, and / would therefore vest in
the people of each state final authority
as to what their state constitution
should be. I would not make the peo-
pie the final Judge in legal questions

the people the final umpire in such a
condict as that above outlined between
the legislature and the judiciary in
