To the Honorable Editor Of side
lights"
! do not wish to impose on you or
the valued space of your column, but
since you have been so generous as
to publish and comment on my pre-
vious communications, I venture to
offer another in the interest Of the
common people and the plain voters
who are watching the developments
In the coming Georgia political CAM
paigns
There was a bit of thrill in that
last line of the Honorable Tom
Hardwick's announcement fer the
short term Senatorship. published in
the Sunday morning papers, when he
said. IN hoe my own row and tote
my own skillet" or words something
like that
Since the Honorable tom" has
come out fatfooted and said as how,
why, where and for what he's going
t. run for Sena tor, and is not going to
tie his little wagon onto Hoke Smiths
nor anybody elses automobile, it's
stir ed things up some.
Now, let the rest Of the boys who
want to go to the Senate-the Hon
orable TON" CMacon) Fielder or any
other Tom" that's on the fence max
ing noise--do like Tom" Hardwick
and say his what and how, and start
a regular old time tom Cats fight
that will make the fur fly thick and
fast through fly time
It's getting close to time for the
State Democratic Committee to get
together and fix the rules for this and
the dozen other fights that are brew
ing. because it's not a great long while
till August, and the Legislature must
have its inning in the meantime.
Whoop EN- up and start things.
Yours for politics.

red headed, but / forgot to mention
that ] used to live in Newton County,
and am left-handed. A. r. F.
That this pestiferous cuss signing
himself A. Rankin Filler is left handed
and red headed is nothing to the
manager of this department Of uplift.
Sometimes Sidelights thinks he also
is loose headed.
And al to whether he willfully inn
poses on the column is another mat
ter that shall not be debated here
Suffice it to say that he butts in"
pretty regularly, and presumably
there is no way to stop him. There is
no necessity for him further to pro-
test his mock modesty.
However Sidelights does approve
Of what he says about speaking out in
meeting.
Tom Hardwicks frankness-
maybe some people think it is assur-
ance but no matters refreshing
Most folks will like the way he speaks
up and 1t is to be hoped the rest of
them will follow his excellent lead.
A. Rankin Filler may be a pest and
a sort of nuisance-but he evidently
is nobody's fool.
Indeed, sometimes he writes as if he
might be almost human.
