Here we have sample of the

Out in crazy Kansas they have

five county clerks, six county
treasurers, six district court
clerks, ten registrars of deeds
and two Probate Judges. Think
of all that impractical nonsense

thereby displacing "a able bodied

wrong. And for myself l promise
that the pardoning power shall not
be used to defeat the laws, and that
whatever function of the executive
office l perform it shall be with an
eye single to the impartial and COM
plete protection of person and prop
erty which our constitution says is
the paramount duty of government.
Georgia Is at Peace.
1t is a cause for congratulation
that for a period of about three years
our people have had a rest from agi-
tation; that there has been practical
ly no attempt to array class against
class. We would discountenance
agitation, which, experience shows,
brings favors to but few, and should
hold in mind that prosperity comes
not to us over the path of agitation;
that there can be no abiding pros
perity unless capital and labor under
the restraint but protection of just
laws jointly thrive; that capital, like
flowing water, moves in the channel
of least resistance, and that, as has
been well said, if capital does not
work labor cannot.
In peace, therefore, is found pros
perity, by cooperation comes con-
struction, and in sincerity among
those who would lead is the sole
guarantee Of lasting confidence
among the masses. If confidence is
lacking all else is weak.
Well known to all are the events
which have resulted in the scene now
being enacted before you. Hence, as
you are here today to install him
whom the sovereign people have
chosen to execute, within the bounds
they have fixed, their enacted will, I
shall not detain you by reciting at
length the governmental procedure
which I believe is demanded by the
logic of the recent election. Your
intelligence enables you as well as
me to interpret the result as the as
certained will of the people for the
rest cure TO the fever of politi-
cal agitation. Yet whom you, the
general assembly, shall convene in
regular session I shall communicate
as fully as needs be regarding the
legislation which, in my judgment,
the we'll being of the commonwealth
demands. Till then I withdraw our
attention from constructive business
in order to discuss laws which some
of us think ought to be placed upon
the statute books.

placed in the hands of every pupil
dress was as follows:
Gentlemen of the General Assem-
bly,, Gentlemen of the Judiciary of
Georgia, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Called a second time by the sover-
eign people of Georgia to discharge
the duties of their chief executive Of
fee l appear before you to take the
oath which binds me to their SER
vice.
That service is an ennobling one
in that it embodies the execution of
the laws, laws which are based on
justice, builded of honor and crown
ed with right; laws which hold with
in themselves the inspiration of a
God-fearing citizenry whose ideals
are high and whose moveant force
is truth.
Happy are we that our abode is in
republic, with no royalty save the
royalty of character, no sovereign
power save that which rests in the
brains and hearts of its people. And
such people! justly jealous of their
liberties, devoted to the principles of
integrity, condemning shams, dis
corning in the framing of their laws
and positive in their demands that
they shall be enforced, they, withal,
exemplify the axiom, THAT people
is the best governed which is the
least governed"
Let the People Govern.
Gentlemen, let us not deceive our
selves; we are here by the grace of
the people but under the orders of
the people, And it is not ours to
vary those orders or to construe them
as we choose. Each of us, whether
in the legislative, the judicial or the
executive department, finds fixed
bounds within which his powers are
limited and his duties made obliga-
tory. Neither can trench upon the
others, except at the expense of the
general safety, but all, when work
ing in harmonious accord, prove the
wisdom Of the wise men of the script
ures, "a threefold cord is not quickly
broken"
Let us then, within the bounds
prescribed by our constitution, per-
form our functions fully, firmly, fear
lessly, but conscientiously.
Yet, with all that have stated, we
have the anomaly that those charged
with the execution of the laws in this
state, as in others, have too often
permitted technicalities and misguid-
ed sympathy to hamper or even de-
feat the laws which the people decree
shall be enforced, hence the vital
need Of the present day is the spirit
of infiexible justice. I therefore
sound the note of warning to you of
the general assembly that you so leg
'slate that the laws OF Georgia be
not the shield of fraud; to yoL Of the
judiciary that the right be so clearly
defined thot there be no excuse for
