pie and direct. with little display of
rhetoric and ostentation. Some of
them, however, run riot in language
and, considering the high cost of white
paper. would seem to be unnecessarily
expensive
Governor Woodrow, Wilson, of New
Jersey, sent out a proclamation re-
markable for its conciseness.
BY way of preamble it says, merely:
Another year of peace and pros
perity has passed by. The life of
the state and of the nation has
been undisturbed by war or pesti-
lence or disaster of any kind; we
have been free to choose our own
ways and have gone through the
varied action of a great political
campaign without violence or pas
sion. The hope of our people has
risen with the increase of their life,
and God has been very gracious to
US in all His dealings.
That is all, except the Therefore, l.
Woodrow Wilson" and so forth.
Governor Baldwin. of Connecticut
recttes many reasons why he should be
/ thankful, among them that everything
is prosperous and bids fair to continue
that way, Notwithstanding that fact
that the nation, by minority vote,
has decreed a party change in admin
istration at Washington"
Governor Foss, of Massachusetts, is
sued his proclamation "by and with the
advice and consent of the executive
council" and the governor of Rhode
Island signs himself officially, Gov
ernor of Rhode Island and the Provi-
dence Plantations"
The governor of Nebraska thanks the
good Lord that a Democratic president
has been named "by a majority of the
nations voters"-which isn't true. Of
course.
b. q. Lastinger, of Valdosta, will be a
candidate for the position of United
States marshal for the Southern dis
trlct Of Georgia, the position now held
by Marshal George White, of Macon,
and his appointment will be vigorously
urged before President Wilson when he
goes into office next March.
Mr.. Lastinger is one of the original
Wilson men in Georgia, and did effec-
tive work for the president elect. He
is eXcellently qualified for the place
and is being Endorsed by leading Dem
