Unquestionably we are Gin for il"
politically in dear old Georgia this
year of grace!
The political outlook is altogether
as stormy as the most strenuous
could ashland all Georgians ask in
that regard, as a rule, is that some
body kick the lid entirely off now
and then, and let 'er go, regardless!
Undoubtedly, there will be grand,
gloomy and peculiar goings-on from
Rabun Gap to Tybee Light--which is
the way Cracker State politicians in
variably state the case, when they
know there is rough sailing ahead
for the entire outfit, pro and con.
OF first Importance, Of course. is
the forthcoming Senatorial appoint
ment. to be made by the Governor to
provide an immediate and temporary
successor to Senator Bacon.
What the Governor has in mind as
to that. nobody Gncluding the Gov
ernor) knows, in all probability.
He declines-and rightly, Of course
absolutely to discuss the Senatorial
succession in advance OF Senator Ba-
cons funeral. and hardly has had
time since.
If the Governor should name a SEN
htor, with the idea of that Senator
succeeding himself necessarily his
appointment would be handled in a
very different manner from that con-
trolling him IL the appointment Ia to
be made strictly for the time being"
and with no idea whatever of the ap-
pointee succeeding himself.
1t will be a day or two. perhaps.
before this matter may be "doped
out" with any degree of certainty. For
the moment, speculation may as well
run riot-and will-even If only for
the fun Of the thing.
just now, the Governor of Georgia
vs. keeping his own counsel-strictly!
And who wishing him well and being
willing to admit that he is entitled
10 untangle the present problem In
his own way--his being the respon-
sibility-will deny that he is fully en-
titled to keep his counsel for the mo-
ment just that way?
In Georgia the people. mostly pol
iticians. want what they want when
they want it---but they get what they
want when they get it, unless some
body beats them to IT, which doesn't
happen often!
There are so many statesmen, real
and near, who are as willing as Bar
kis ever dared to be to take over the
short term Senatorship that II is more
or less refreshing to see one boom
started that has about 1t no hant or
politics or factionallsm.
A number of strong and influential
friends have undertaken to bring
about the appointment of Colonel w.
c. Nereen, of Moultrie, to the short
term Senatorshlp--and wherever the
subject is mentioned 1t meets rather
hearty and ready response
Mr.. Nereen Is a business man pure
and simple He never held political
Office in his life, and would not ac-
cept the long term Senatorship II 1t
were within his reach.
He used to live in Atlanta, but some
years ago he moved to South Geor-
| gia. to grow up with the country. He
grew up so well that he Is recog-
nized through all the State to-day as
one of the most substantial business
men therein. He is president of half
dozen business enterprises in his
section, and is now the president of

MAKES BACKACHE
QUICKLY DISAPPEAR
A Few Doses Relieves All Such
Miseries. Bladder Weakness,
Kidney Trouble and Rheu-
matism Promptly Vanish.

II is no longer necessary for any
one to suffer with backaching. kid
ney trouble, have disagreeable blad-
der and urinary disorders to contend
with, or be tortured with rheuma-
tism, stiff joints, and its heart
wrenching pains, for the new discov-
cry, Croxone, quickly and surely re-
lieves all such troubles.
Croxone is the most wonderful rem
edy yet devised for Kidding the sys-
tenn of uric acid and driving out all
the poisonous impurities which cause
such troubles. 1t is entirely different
from all other remedies. 1t is not
like anything else ever used for the
purpose. It acts on the principle of
cleaning out the poisons and remov-
ing the cause.
1t soaks right in through the walls
membranes and Innings, like water in
q sponge, neutralizes, dissolves. and
makes the kidneys sift out and filter
away, all the uric acid and poisons
from the blood and leaves the kid
neys and urinary organs clean, strong
healthy and well.
It matters not how long you have
suffered, how old you are, or what
you have used, the very principle OF
Croxone is such, that ii is practically
impossible to take il into the human
system without results. There is moth.
ing else on earth like It. 1t starts
TO work the minute you take it aud
relieves you the first time you use 1t.

kidney, bladder troubles. or rheuma
tism, such as puffy swellings undel

Croxone will quickly relieve you o.

friends of Mr. Vereen insist that he

And his name will be urged vigor-
! ously before the Governor, moreover
Congressman Gordon Lee, who was
in Georgia on business when Senator
Bacon died, remained over for the fu-
neral, and leaves for Washington to-
night.
Mr.. Lee has been a gubernatorial
possibility in Georgia for the past
two or three years, and is known to
have some ambitions in that direc-
| ton. Whether he will be a candidate
in the event of a wide open race this
year, is not, Of course, known, and
he declines to discuss the matter at
this time.
Il am only in Georgia just now

Governorship no thought. / do moi

stituents in the Seventh District
said Mr.. Lee to-day.
There is plenty of time to think
Of other political ambitions-if ]
have any, and of that am not quite
sure"
The name of John T. Boifeuillet, OF
Macon, win be pressed upon Governor
Slaton as a fit and proper successor
to Mr.. Bacon, for the short term SEN
atorship.
Mr.. Boifeuillet was private secre-
tary of the dead Senator, and knew
| him more intimately than any other
F, person on earth, perhaps. Moreover,
the Macon man has a world of friends
all over the State, and it might not
be the worst sort of business, from a
purely political standpoint, for the
Governor to name him.
Mr.. Boifeuillet has made no effort
whatever to secure the appointment,
of course-and 1t is not known that
he will. He has, however, been Sc
riously considered in quarters en-
tlrely friendly to the Governor.
Representative w. A. Dodd, of Bar
low COuHty, Is III AlldHlA LOT u uay
or so on business
Considerable pressure has been
brought to bear upon Mr. Dodd to
be a candidate to succeed himself,
but so far he has not said definitely
what he will do. If he runs again, he
will be elected without opposition.
So far as the members of the pres
ent House are concerned, 1t will be
the unanimous hope that Mr.. Dodd
come back. He is one of the quieter
men of the Legislature, but one of the
genuinely influential. He Is thor
oughly well liked, and is as firm in
| standing by his principles as any
man could be. 1t is common comment
In the House that "Dodd's word is al
! together as good as his bond in any
matter'-and he never gives his word
! lightly. He is a high-class man, and
Is one OF the kind needed in the Leg
islature.

Detective Burns description Of the
manner in which he had trapped po-
litical crooks in various cities was
one of the interesting features of his
address.
How They Were Trapped.
In Atlantic City, one of his oper-
atives represented that he was about
to build a 100000 hotel and that,
in addition, the syndicate back of
him proposed to construct a concrete
boardwalk in place of the wooden one
now there.
The outcome was published in pa
pers from coast to coast. Most of the
Councilmen rushed in to get their
share of the money that they under
stood was being distributed by the
syndicate for the privilege of max
ing the beach front improvement and
were promptly photographed, convict
ed and hustled o ffto Jail, or at least
subjected to the ordeal of trial and
to the enduring suspicion Of being
