THE eyEFFERSO OMAN

Every member OF Congress as at his post,
SO far as I know Of the Southern delegation
one man excepted.
That man is L. w. Hardvicl1 who was the
only member of the Georgia delegation to
vote an addition of So 800 year to his own
salary.
Although, it is a most critical and anxious
time in Administration circles at Washing
ton, this member from Georgia has deserted
his post and has been running around, from
courthouse to courthouse, begging the peo-
pie to elect him in Bacons place.
Nobody ever saw A. O. Bacon desert his
post, during session of Congress, and gal
Top all over the State, pleading for votes.
1t is a strange thing that Hardwiclz's
audiences do not rise against him and ask
"TVhy are you not IN washington, doing
y0nr duty, and earning your poy9
His record in Congress is as barren Of fruit
as the fig tree that Christ ordered cut down.
He has accomplished absolutely nothing for
the people. And when Speaker Champ Clark
gave him splendid opportunity to expose
the Sugar Trust, the lobbyists of the Trust
wined him, dned him, and got him to make
Report that did not recommend Congress
to do thing against the Trust.
The price Of sugar was then advanced, and

country?

Did he then vote against it No: he did
not. He r0ted for IT,
He said that although the new law would
create the worst Of all Trusts, and would
ruin the country, he would vote for it-oohy?
Because it got majority in the secret
Democratic caucus.
In other words, he went into Star Cham
Der meeting where he knew the Northern and
Eastern so-called Democrats would tie his
hands, and put q collar 20und his nech
He meekly wore this Northern and Eastern
plutocratic collar; and voted for bill which
he himself declared qc0ud be the ruin Of his

Does he still believe that the Wilson Bryan

most gigantic of all Trusts?
Does he still believe that it will be the ruin
of the country?

Note his stand for those fundamental
principles on which our Government is

Note his firm declaration for free speech,
free press, religious liberty, and our Public
School system.
Note his stand on the immigration ques-
ton.
Those are all live issues, growing more
important every day.

mans vote should be the equal Of any other
mans vote, regardless of the place of resi-
dence.
Many an honest and fairminded citizen has
deceived himself with that argument But it
IS misleading, so far as our system of Govern
ment is concerned
Would Mr.. Gibson, or any other Georgian,
be willing to see every vote in New York, Ohio
and Pennsylvania, the equal, ia national poll
tics, of every vote in Georgia, Alabama and
Florida?
If SO, the big States of the North would
oyerwhelm the South, IN the U. s. Senate
Would Mr.. Gibson be willing to surrender
Georgia to Illinois? Would he welcome a
change in the fundamental law which would
enable the millions of recently naturalized
immigrants from Europe to dictate laws to us
native Southerners of the small States?
[ have no idea that he would; and am quite
sure that he would find himself in a hopeless
minority, were he to advocate such a change
In the Z. S. Senate, the State unit is equal

difference may be in population Thus

Mr. Gibson may be willing to have his
county Of Taliaferro lose her constitutional
rights; and sink to where Fulton County
could exercise 40 times more power.
Taliaferro is given onc-third the power of
Fulton: that proportion IS hers by law: would
she be willing to surrender it?
[ don't think so. Why should she?
In the Nineties, Taliaferro was virtually
disfranchiscd by the stuffed balIot-boxes Of
Augusta and she did not like it very much.
Would she now like to be practically dis
franchised by the stuffed boxes of Atlanta?

Four Candidates For BacOnss
TerTra Ian the u. s. Senate.

Hon A. o. Bacon.
Q:) Governor John M. Slaton is candi-
date; and he is heavily handicapped by mis-
takes that he made at the beginning.
1t was mistake for him to appoint tenn
porary Senator who would not be a candidate
for the remainder of the Bacon term.
That had the appearance of using public
trust for selfish ambition
The people will always believe that Cap
tain West was selected because he was the
asplrant who would be satisfied with the fag
end Of one Congress-
Logically, Joseph NJ. Brown was the man
for Slaton to appoint, and everybody knows
it.
Had the Governor appointed Brown, with
no strings tied to him, and then announced
himself for the place vacated by Steve Clay
place qnhich the people hare not yet filed
he would have defeated the treacherous, self
appointed Smith, with all ease.
The Brown-Slaton team would have been
invincible
Secondly, Governor John showed the
white feather, when he refused to run against
the self-appointed Senator Smith
Our people are not blood thirsty at all, but
they never enthuse over man who shows
the aohite feather. Governor John will not
be able to get away from the fact that he
showed it.
Thirdly, Brother Slaton fell down badly
when he virtually declared that atlanta IS
entitled to both the Senatorahips.
The fair minded people of Atlanta do not
think. that way; and the voters of the other
counties do not think so.
In spite of all that Governor Slaton can
say, it will appear to the people that his
demand is something like this:
''The corporations and politicians Of
Atlanta have agreed on me and Senator Smith
as the two y. S. Senators for the State Of
Georgia. 1t now becomes the duty of the peo-
pie to ratify what the Atlanta corporations
and politicians have agreed on.
Fourthly, Governor Stations announcement
for Senator did not make any 'pints" He
did not say what he was for, nor what he was
against
He issued no declaration of faith. and did
not tell us what he would at least try to do,
If we put him in bed with the Hog-eye man.
All that Jack told us was that he's Geor-
gian, married a Georgian, and loves Geor-
gians, especially those Georgians that vote
for John Marmalade Slaton.
Fifthly, he made mistake in not resign
ing from Rossers law firm, and from the
gOvernorship, when he put himself in the
Senatorial race.
Now, that's enough about Jack.
Two other candidates belonging to the
Smith faction Of RuIe-orR Ruin natriots claim
to be running for the Bacon term.
Mr.. Fielder set the good example of resign
ing the office of Attorney General before
going out to make speeches for himself as
candidate for another office.
It is very much to his credit that he did not
continue to draw a salary from the people,
at time when he was neglecting the duties
of his office.
