Herbert Clay the newly elected so
licitor general Of the Blue Ridge cir
cult, discussing the execution of two
negroes in Cumming yesterday, talked
today most interestingly on affairs in
Forsyth county, political as well as
otherwise
1T is difficult for a person living
away from Forsyth county to under
stand the feelings Of the people there,
and for that reason they should not be
censured too harshly for tearing down
the big fence which had been erected
to prevent the execution of the crimi-
nails in any way other than az the law
provides" said Mr.. Clay.
THE politics Of Forsyth may be more
on less mixed, but upon the question
attaching to the execution Of these two
negroes the people are united. Ii may
be that they would not have restrained
themselves had the military not been
sent along with the criminals. AS to
that | am not prepared to say ! am

If any class Of men in this world
know Mr.. Roosevelt for what he really
is, personally and otherwise, It is the
newspaper correspondents accredited by

Their undivided testimony is that Colo

tim OF mean SANDER in the matter Of
his alleged intemperance-just as other
presidents before him have been.
Colonel Roosevelt seems determined
to establish by a court record, how
ever. that which those who really are
acquainted with him already know to
be the truth-and perhaps It is just as
we'll, for there is no good reason why
anybody anywhere should believe that

The Georgia friends of Colonel Theo-
dore Roosevelt--and he has very many
warm friends and admirers in this state
are interested in the suit for libel he
has brought against a Michigan news
paper that attacked him viciously not
long ago for alleged intemperance in
language and liquor.
OF course, Colonel Roosevelt's idea
is merely 90 establish a record in refu-
tation Of the ancient charge, never sus-
tanned, that the former president hab-
itually overlndulged himself in strong
drink. For the charge of intemperance
in language he cares nothing whatever,
perhaps.

pie. never so situated that they might
