Smith is half Yankee. His father was
H. H. Smith, LII D., a New Hampshire man
who went South and became president of n
small college in North Carolina, afterward
taking a professorship in the University Of
North Carolina Hoke was born in Newton,
N. c., nearly 81 years ago. Most of his early
education he received from his father. He
taught school, studying law in the evenings,
and at the age Of 16 he was admitted to the
bar of Atlanta, Ga From that time on what
with politics, law, journalism and educational
interests, he has had a busy career For
time he was editor and owner of the Atlanta
Journal. In 1888 he married Miss Birdie Cobb,
daughter of Thomas r. r. Cobb, and they have
reared a family of three daughters and one
son.
When Grover Cleveland chose him for his
Secretary of the Interior In his second Cabi-
net Smith had never held public office in his
life. That was In 1892. When he was the suc-
cessful candidate for Governor of Georgia in
1905 he had never before run" for office But
he had been in politics, He had Joined with
Henry w. Grady--he of the famous "New
South" speech-in keeping Patrick Calhoun
out of the United States Senate and eecting
General Gordon. Calhoun was afterward
heard of by the nation at the time of the great
civic fight in San Francisco, only Calhoun
was on the wrong SIDE as HllBnt nave Deen
expected. Smith had also succeeded in send
ing a Cleveland delegation to the Democratic
convention in 1899, after the friends of David
b. Hill were certain they were going to have
things their own way
Smith won his legal reputation as an anti
corporation lawyer, and when he was Gov
ernor--he was given two terms with defeat
in between-he was known as having no peers
among State officials, except possibly La Fol-
lette, as a trust buster Previous to that time
the State OF Georgia, politics and all, was
controlled by special interests There were
some few Georgians who looked forward to
deliverance, James r. Gray who was then
managing the Atlanta Journal, described the
kind OF man Georgia ought 70 have for Gov
ernor The description fitted Hoke Smith to a

'CHANUKKAH' THE
FEAST Of LIGHT"
WILL Be OBSERVED

Chanukkah, or THE Feast of
Lights which is to the Jews what
the Christmas festival is to those of
the Christian faith, will be celebrated
throughout the world by the orthodox,
beginning Wednesday 1t is the great
season of merry making with the de-
scendants of Moses, but is principally
a holiday season for the children. Spe-
ial childrens services will be held in
Pensacola, for which great prepare
tions are now being made, it is said,
those at the reformed churches
throughout the world to be on an. elab-
crate scale.
The history of Chanukkah records
one of the proudest triumphs of the
Jewish spirit. In the year 165 B. c.
the Greek religion and culture had
made heavy inroads in Asia, and the
conquering army of Alexander and
his successors had spread its prac-
tees all along its victorious march.
AS Judea came under Syrian Greek
dominance. an acute stage was
reached which compelled the faithful
Jews to rush to arms to defend their
faith and their country. The SPLEEN
did victories of Jewish heroism under
the valiant Maccabees and the driv-
ing of the great Syrian armies out of
Judea gave freedom again to Israel.
The Importance of this victory for the
Jew as well as for the worlds culture
and religion cannot be overestimated.

SADIE c. Summer Leakina.

Leaking, water-logged, with loss OF
deckload. anchors and chains, the
schooner barge Sadie c, Sumner was
returned to Pensacola Saturday morn
ing in tow of the tug Echo. Thursday
noon, after having cleared Pensacola
barS about sixty hours, the Sumner
began leaking. when off Cape San
Bias. At that time stiff south
wester prevailed. but upon starting
back to her initial or loading point, the
wind shortly afterward veercd around
to the north, and howled out at great
rate. That caused the barge to leak
more. and when the hawser parted,
and the barge was left temporarily to
the mercy of the waves. the deckload,
chains, anchors. etc. went into the
sea, and the steward at one time came
precariously near being washed over
board. Upon arrival here Saturday,
it was necessary for the tug to hold on
to the Sumner before berth was as
signed. as there was no anchors
aboard to stop the barge in the
stream

TARIFF AND POLITICS.

The opinion prevails among a cer-
 tain number that 1t is impossible to take the tariff out of politics, change which has been advocated for insur-
 ing stability to the industrial activ- .ty Of the country and preventing the
 uncertainty which always accompanies
 the change of administration from one
 party to the other.
 The situation regarding the tariff
 is no different, however, than that concerning preparedness. There is
 need of a fixed policy concerning both which should be carried out from year to year, with such changes as new
 conditions make necessary, but with the general Idea of looking after the
 nations interests instead of chasing
 theories which bob up every now and
 then to throw a scare into those who are directly affected thereby.
 It may never be possible to entirely eliminate politics from the tariff, but 1t ought never to be admitted that it
 Isn't possible to strike a middle course which would overcome the glarina faults which are revealed by the pres ent attitude towards that great eco
 homie question. At the present time
 there is a grand overthrow every time the administration changes and these revisions are not made as the result of the actual conditions which exist
 but because one party thinks 1t can better the accomplishments of the other by great upheaEal. by the tear ing down of existing regulations and the building up of new along lines of it's own simply because politics would never sanction the endorsement of the other fellows ideas whatever
 may be the facts in the case. When however. fixed tariff policy is en- dorsed and carried out and tariff changes are made in accordance with the requirements of the country then
 will industrial uncertainty be reduced to the minimum and not until then.

storie. of the War
The Leoion of Honor.

The red ribbon on increasing mum
 bers of weather stained blue jackets, and the frequent appeals to popular imagination by the military parades
 behind the war zone incidental to the decoration of heroes from the front, have given a remarkable increase in popularity to the Legion of Honor
 This imperial institution, handed down through the Restoration. the Second Republic and the Second Empire, was
 not accepted without reserve by the
 more democratic Third Republic and
 has gone through some vicissitudes since
 Napoleon's first idea was to reward military devotion and gallant services
 on the field of battle. It was only later. when he realized the importance Of making war on Great Britain's commerce as well as upon her fleet and army. that he used the decoration to incite civilian effect. Warnings were given at the time that abuses
 would result. There was no scandal, however. during the Empire and the first known traffic in the decoration came to light in 1922, when an agency engaged in the selling of false decora-
 tions was unearthed. The scandal of
 1887 was more serious. In that case 1t was question of the sale of real dec orations, invo1ing a son-in-law of the president of the republic, Jules Grevy, and finally about the latter's resigna- I1Dn. some less conspicuous cases
 have developed since, but the supposi- tion put forth at different times, that 1 the Legion of Honor was always for sale at price, was certainly exag-
 gerated. There was, perhaps, more l foundation for the opinion of the un- deoerated, that political influence had
 great deal to do with the distribu- | tion of the honor among civilians. | At it's origin the Legion of Honor comprised a Grand Council or direc-
 tory. composed of grand officers and

This means not only that they must lose their bank accounts, but that they will also be without the homes which they have secured for themselves by long and hard work
 It is possible that this foreclosure action is being encouraged with a pur- nose in view of permitting as little as possible to be realized on the judg- ment after which the matters can be Gully recompe out of the proceeds which the unions of the country are going to contribute, but whatever may follow along that line it must be rec ognized that the one sensible thing is being done by labor when it agrees to stand back of the Danbury men and see that they do not suffer finaia- niaHy as the result of the judgment Rf half million rendered against them.
