D|X|EED|TORSTO
MEET IN ATLANTA
Leading Newspaper Men of
Southern States Will Gather
Here Next Year.

The Southern Newspaper Publishers
association, at it's annual meeting in
New Orleans last week, voted unani-
mously to hold it's next meeting in At
lanta. The invitation to meet in this
city was extended by the three Atlanta
newspapers and was supported by
cordial telegram signed by Governor
Joseph M. Brown, Mayor James G.
Woodward and President Wilmer l..
Moore of the Chamber of Commerce.
The meeting will be held some time
in the early spring of 1914, the exact
date to be fixed later by the board Of
directors of the association, after con-
ference with the Atlanta newspaper
men and others who may be interested
in entertaining the visitors. This meet
ing will bring to Atlanta large num-
Der of the strongest newspaper men of
the South-men who are leaders in their
respective communities and whose
good opinion it will be decidedly to At
vate.
The Atlanta newspaper. men who
were in New Orleans last Week enjoyed
hearing many complimentary refer
ences to Atlanta, showing the high es-
TEEN in which this city and its accom-
plishments are held by the Southern
newspaper men.
The program of entertainment afford
ed by the newspaper men and citizens
OF New Orleans was so elaborate and
so interesting as to leave but little time
or disposition for attending to the rou-
tine business of the association. How
ever, there was little complaint on this
score, and the meeting in New Orleans
unanimously was voted to be one of the
most pleasant that the association has
ever held.
In the coming meeting in this city
Atlanta has in prospect a most inter
esting event and an opportunity for
showing this city and its advantages
and resources to an active and infiuen-
tial body of men.

There are any number of candidates
for the job-all good friends of the gov
ernor, and all we'll qualified 'for the
place.
Wesley Shropshire of Chattooga, has
ever been a strong Brown man, infre-
quently, if ever, asking anything at the
governors hands either for himself or
some one else. r. A. Denny, of Floyd,
was the chairman of the Joe Brown
club of Floyd in the last campaign, and
Is the law partner of Moses Wright,
the eloquent, who stumped the state
for Brown. G. R. Hutchens who man
aged the late Underwood campaign in
Georgia, has been at all times an un-
compromising Brown partisan-the
governor could not be other than high
ly appreciative of Hutchens interest in
Browns political welfare.
And so it goes, on down the line.
If half dozen loyal, sincere, well
qualified Brown men want the judge
ship, what shall the governor do?
He hasn't minated what he is going
to do, and it may be that he doesn' t
know himself yet. He could be happy
with any one of the candidates, were
t'other dear candidates away!
No man is-can be-more thoroughly
attached to his friends than Governor
Brown. Deciding between them is q
task he hates to undertake-and still,
there is the vacant Rome judgeship, and
it must be filled, of course.
General VanHolt Nash is having the
quarters of the states war department
enlarged and otherwise reconstructed,
There is no department of the gov
eminent of Georgia that is so badly
cramped for space in which to transact
it's necessary business as the adjutant
generals office. Besides, there are two
full fedged brigadier generals at
tached to that department nowadays
and it takes good deal Of space tc
house and accommodate two military
| bigwigs like that!
When the general-the head genera
gets through remodeling, however, the
department will have nearly twice as
much space as it has now-and it will
not have too much, at that.
