Questions About Georgia Affairs.

a FRIEND wishes to know in what order
our Governors have followed each
other, during the last six or eight years.
The cards have ben shufied SO often, and
such different hands dealt, that confusion
naturally prevails.
AS near as l can remember, Hoke Smith
was the candidate who beat Clark Howell
III 1906, that being the year we started out
to abolish the lobby chastise the railroads.
establish Port Rates. disfranchise our brother
In black, Danish free passes, make the South
ern Express Company get religion, and send
Hamp McWhorter to the chain gang.
Governor Smith excited the displeasure
of Joseph M. Brown, railroad commits
sloner, by oustng that citizen from office, a
week Or SO before his term would have died
a peaceful and natural death.
The discomfort of Brown-who considered
himself contumellously treated-was SO
poignant, that he ran against Smith for
Governor; and, to the amazement of Smith,
Brown elected.
This sad event occurred in 1908-Smith
having been inaugurated in June, 1907,
amid the rejoicings of "the mob" which at
that time was variously called the populace,
the assembled people, &c.
Governor Brown racked along quietv.
after being sworn in (June, 1907, and then
Smith ran again, and was elected
This was in 1910, but Brown did not 90
out until June, 1911.
Then Smith went back into the Office. and
held it while reaching up for the Senate
After he finally decided which office he
needed most, he went on to Washington,
and was temporarily succeeded by John M.
Slaton, President of the Senate, as per
statutory provision.
A special election was called to fill out
Smiths uneXpired term, and Joseph Nj.
Brown was elected.
He came on deck again in January, 1912,
and held office until Slaton had been elected
and sworn in-which latter event occurred
in 1913.
Answering as to who Slaton married, will
say his wife is the sister of John M. Grant
Her first husband was Tom Cobb Jackson.

Stewart Day." and thus glorify the .'mob,s
which made such demonstration against An
thony Stewart that he pacifed it by setting
fire to his brig, Peggy Stewart which
had offended the mob by bringing from
England some English goods which the
Maryland patriots had agreed to boycott
Anothony was not governor, you see;
and he could not sit down in his summer
home, take his pen in hand and establish
war-zone around his house and his brig, and
have Maryland defend it at cost Of thous-
and dollars day.
Our historians gloat over the way the
Liberty Boy mobs harred the Tories, and
the stamp sellers; and they describe to us
how some were given an hour or so t.
off the earth; how others were tarred and
feathered; how others were lynched, &C.
Those were jolly old days.
In those times, no theorist claimed that
mankind were given the teeth of sharks in
order that they might be able to chew cab
bage and beets and squash and lettuce and
celery, and whortle-berry pie
In those old days of our Revolutiona1~,
forefathers, little fighting, now and then,
was relished by the wisest men, and the
prettiest women.
Thomas jefferson wrote James Madison
that the tree of Liberty was a plant that
had to be watered with human blood, occa-
sionally; and he never wrote truer thing
Chicago famed into riots and suppressed
the anarchists.
New Orleans exploded in riots, and
stopped the Italian Malta murders.
New York rioted against Jay Gould, and
his robber gang; and he had to save his life
by flight over the house tops.
In Justin McCarthy's book, "The Epoch
of Reform" you may read how the Tory
landlords and ministers and bishops cheated
the people time and again out of promised
reforms; and how the maddened people at
last rose In mobs. broke the windows of the
Duke of Wcllingtons mansion, attacked the
country place of the Duke of Rutland. burnt
the Nottingham Castle of another Duke, and
made such savage rushes to get hold Of
Castlereagh, the Tory Minister. that it was
all the troops could do to save his life
TO prercnt cirI ac0r, the reform lars lad
to be adopted.
When the fire had thus been taken from
under the pot, it ceased to boil
Let those in power respect the laws. as
then sarea2 to do: let men in office remain
faithful to the people who elect them: let
the courts treat rich and poor alike; let there
be no prostitution of governmental powers,
in behalf of a class!
Let the rulers treat the people ri0ht. and
there will be no mobs and no riots.
while it's rights were being trampled on, and
its governmental powers sold to Big Money,
such State would be no longer alive
1t would be, morally and politically, a
corpse. ~

When ssMObS'' Are No LOn0er
Possible, Liberty Will
Be Dead.

but they would never cut Panama Canal,
Or create a system of trans continental rail
roads, for themselves.
A nation Of moll-coddles might meekly
lie at the feet of popes and kings, while
schools were being abolished, libraries burnt,
scientific research penalized, and the great
mass of the people plunged into ignorance,
superstition and slavery; but such nation
never reared a Washington Monument, or
drank patriotic inspiration on battle fields
where brave soldiers died, or broke out into
enthusiasm when the flag was flying and the
bands struck "Dixie!"
the men who have red blood in their VEINS
and who believe in mixing good deal Of
fighting, with their marching
Grape juice dreamers may cry Peace!
Peace but there is no peace, anywhere, nor
was there ever any.
The elements have no peace; the stars have
no rest; the clouds toss and tumble, float or
fly forever the ocean always murmurs and
always moves; the rivers do not stop, and
the deWs are ever going up Or coming down;
the storm is gathering its forces, or spend
ing them, all the time: there IS no Peace!
Out of the strife and the combat, freedom
and independence are born out of the con-
test and the struggle, strength is developed;
and even the patriot writer like Heine, can
ask, with just pride, that a sword be laid on
his coffin, because he had been a warrior in
the cause of Liberalism and Progress
If Wallace and Bruce had been milk-sops,
Scotland would be lacking in half it's glory.
If Hampden and Crowned had not been
fighters, Magma Charta would have died
under the restored Romanism of the royal
Stuarts.
If Mirabean, Danton and Barbaroux had
been vegetarian effeminates, the Code Ma
poleon would not have shattered the feudal-
ism of Europe.
It seems to me that our school histories
glorlfy some incidents In our early national
life which do not altogether agree with some
recent preachments
about "mobs;" and, strange to- say, these
mobs are described as being pioneers of our
independence and institutions
North Carolinons are asked to annually
assemble and do honor to the members of the
mob which fought the Tory Governors sol
diers at Alamance.
His name was 1ryon. you recollect; and
he got his Tory proclivities from New York ;
and he ran rough-shod over our Tar-heel
brethren, to such an extent that their red
hood boiled over, and they hallowed the
battle-g ground of Alamance with liberal
libation Of it-and that was the "mob'' which
fought the first fight for our Independence
Then there was that Boston "mob,' whose
picture used to be in all our histories at
school.
You can close your eyes, and see it now
the British soldiers, standing in well-dressed
line, muskets at. their shoulders, and the
smoke and fame bursting out at the muzzles
and the members of the "mob" falling to
the ground.
The firing on the Boston mob fired the
American colonies, and the cry went all the
way down to Savannah-'The cause of Bos-
ton is the cause of us all !"

ward Movement to Be Sc
cured for CIarksburg.

Definite action toward securing a
Laymen's Missionary convention for

meeting of men held in the First

at last nights meeting. which was
very enthusiastic. All the churches

crowd.
After it had been agreed that &C
ton be taken looking towards secur-
ing a convention for Clarksburg,
there was lengthy discussion of the
meaning of the movement. the ad-
vantages the convention will give to
the local churches and the fitness OF

time, when there are so many new
members in the churches here.

PURSUIT RACE
Will Be One of the Feature
Events at Big Race Meet
Saturday.

One of the novel features of the
automobile races to be held at Nor
wood park Saturday will be an
Australian pursuit race. This race Is
always a big thriller. The cars are
handicapped according to their time
in previous races, the faster cars
starting from the scratch and the
slower cars from various positions
around the track. At given signal
the cars all start. AS soon as one car
is passed by another car it immedi-
ately drops out of the race, and so
on until if at the end of ten miles the
scratch car has not passed the car
with the largest handicap the judges
will decide which car is the winner.
This race should furnish many
thrilIers as the slow cars have good
chance to win and all the drivers will
push their cars to the limit.
