Georgia Congressman are having
their troubles this year. In nearly
all districts either a real race is in
progress or there is threatened oppo-
! sition OF the most serious kind for the
present Representatives.
Being an Administration Congress-
| man-that is, being a member of the
majority party in the House, when
| the President is of the same faith
has It's drawbacks. 1t Is by no man
ner OF means all beer and skittles-
not even near-beer and near skittles,
as might be the case with Georgia
| congressman. OF course. With such
veterans as Bartlett, Adamson and
| Edwards, not to mention such young
er members as Tribble, Park and
| Walker, facing trouble one well may
| inquire why this thusness in a Demo-
| cratic year, when things 30 long have
been so peaceful?
The fly in the ointment is not far to
seek--it is mostly summed up In the
| pestiferous little word "patronagei"
Old Uncle Allen" d. Gambler, re-
| membered most pleasantly by many
Georgians as a perfectly proper Gov
| ernor of this Commonwealth, once
| upon time stated parable when he
said that "he who appoints one man
to Office makes one migrate and a
score of enemies!"
Wherefore, let a postoff1ce become
vacant in Congressman Soandso's
district, and he undertake to fill It.
| presto, where grew one enemy before,
| now grows a dozen or more!
Scratch around and see II you can
| locate the cause OF the opposition to
Congressman Blank this year. Dol
lars to doughnuts, and you find 1t
| based upon antagonisms arising from
| blasted ambitions in the matter of
some Federal appointment.
1t may be that the trouble was I'M
avoidable-no doubt the Congressman
did his level best to do what was
right. 1t does not matter in the least.
There was the pie" spread for the
feasting and while twenty men want
ed 1t, only one could have 1t!
When ones party is in the minor
ity and all one has to do in Congress
Is to view with alarm, and not bother
ones noodle about offices one knows
he can not have anyway-why, then,
holding on to ones Congressional job
is not so difficult Once let ones par
ty grab off that White House prize
however-ah, it's a sad tale, ship
mates
Local Bell phone Ivy No. is, now To-
Gated in the Brown Randolph Bull /
ing, in Marietta street, has been right
there for more than 80 years. 1t was
the one and only phone in the State
Capitol when that building was To-
Gated on the same plot of grounl;
and, though many changes have taken
place in the meantime, phone 16 still
does business at the old stand!
Since this phone was originally in
stituted in the old Capitol-which was
the scene of many political tragedies
and comedies of the late seventies
and early eighties, when Reconstruct
ton was very much thing still to
be reckoned wlth--everything else
has been moved from the locality that
| might suggest the ancient order Of
things and Georgia's statesmen have
been housed snugly in one OF the
handsomest capitols in the nation.
Phone No. 16 doubtless would re-
fuse to work In any other vicinity,
after all these years of service.

existing craft unions will be urged to
join these organizations, while for
those employees whose peculiar en-
ployment does not permit classical

The frank attitude Of the American
Federation of Labor will place the
question Of labor unions for Govern

ident Wilson. At present the open

Government Printing Office, where
more craftsmen of one class are en-
ployed than in any other Government
bureau or department.

STRIKE LEADERS

Special Cable TO Tho Atlanta Georqlan.
DURHAM, NATAL, Jan. 2s.-Labor
leaders who conducted the recent strike
that terrorised all South Africa and
was halted only by martial law, were
deported to-day. President Watson, of
the Trades Federation, Secretary Balm
and several of their colleagues, were
taken under armed guard aboard the
steamer Umgeni just before It sailed for
England.
The men will be prevented by execu-
tive general enactment from returning
to South Africa.

Jaw, Of which everybody who isn't "A
fisherman approves heartily, was
passed on Sunday. The Legislature
enacting 1t evidently thought there
was no great harm, perhaps, in pass
ing 80 good a law on so good day.
Officially, to be sure, said law was
passed on Saturday-but, as matter
OF fact, 1t was passed at O'CLOCK
Sunday morning, long after the hour
Of legally required adjournment had
arrived and departed, and to meet
which unseemly emergency the Sen
ate clock had been solemnly set back
eight or ten hours!
It doesn't matter so much who was
President of that Senate, or exactly
when said Senate sat, the facts in re
the passing of the anti-fishing- on =
Sunday bill are right!
Senator r. T. DuBose. Of the Thir-
tieth District, has numbered his
guns against the Ubiquitous Georgia
tax system" in q speech at Wa;-
kinsville which rather "bristles," as
they say about those sorts of things
Said "iniquitous' system is none 9TH
er than the present tax equalization
law!
It has been very well understood
that there would be some opposition
registered against the law. but 1t was
not very well understood, II seems,
that Senator. DuBose was to head II
and begin 1t. He is an eloquent man,
and we'll qualified to lead the opposi-
ton hosts.
Those responsible for the law how
ever, seem in no wise disturbed by
the Senator's attitude. They appar-
emily are entirely satisfied that the
law Wa be approved by the people OF
Georgia generally.
Denied the privilege of making
speeches on the streets of Macon, two
itinerant Socialists, supported by the
local organization of % members
have put the City Council of Macor
on notice that they will this week
appeal to the Superior Court for ar
injunction against the Mayor and the
police department.
The Socialists are especially indig-
nant because they were told by Act
ing Mayor ]. B. Riley that he would
allow Theodore Roosevelt to speak or
the streets, but would not grant them
the same permission"
They thought that was adding in
suit to injury!
That 1t is his present intention to
retire from politics and to spend the
remainder of his life as a private
citizen, is the statement Judge J. l..
Sweat, State Senator from the Fifth
District, has issued to a committee
of his friends who asked him re-
Gently to become candidate for
judge of the Waycross circuit.
Senator Sweat has received resolu-
lions of thanks from the Trades and
Labor Assembly of Waycross for his
work in the present Senate, and spe-
cial thanks have been extended him
for his efforts in behalf of the mea-
sures generally approved by labor.
Editor Leroy Hirshburg, of the
Marion County Patriot, mentioned
prominently as a candidate for Con-
gress from the Fourth, is out in ar
article in The Patriot this week, sup
porting woman suffrage, eugeniC
marriages and taxation of church
property.
That, without any more trimmings
or frills, will impress most folks as
being some little platform!

NAMED practically unknown until the outbreak Of

position which made eager to take up arms

Our own national anthem is Georgian prod
uct and originally opened with the words "God
bless great George King" It has been hon
ored by Beethoven with seven variations for the
piano. and it is introduced into his Battle Sym
phony. On the whole, perhaps. the tune to which
we sing-all the words remember God
Save tie King" has probably the largest circula-
ton Of any tune in the world.
Then there is Rule, Britannia" perhaps the
finest national song possessed by any nation, and
which was composed by DR.. Arne the English
musician, who wrote several operas. Rule,
Britannia was included in the "Masque of Al
fred" musical farce produced in 174O.
Just as the Austrian national anthem is the
only one set to music by great composer. so the
Norwegian anthem is the only one whose words
were written by a real poet. This was Bjou-
stjerne Bj0rnson. On one occasion he was asked
when he got the greatest pleasure out Of his fame
as a national poet He repl d: ut was when
delegation from the Right came to my house in
Christiania and smashed all my windows. Be

could, and were starting home again, they felt
they ought to sing something. So they began TO
sing yes, We Love this Land of Ours They
could do nothing else. They were obliged to
sing the song Of the whom they had at

Singularly enough the country which has the
best variety Of patriotic anthems is the country
which has had less warfare than any other the
United States Of America. Her songs are fine.
The real national anthem OF America is "lly
Country, 'Tis Of Thee and it is sung to the
tune as our own. But perhaps the real, genuine,
rcck-bottom anthem Of America after all. is the
famous Yankee Doodle" which, like John
Brown" has the great advantage Of being a real
marching song, which not only helps to keep the
mems spirits from tagging, but also helps to keep
them in step A band playing Yankee Doodle
