WASHINGTON LETTER.

That most excellent Georgia Daily
The Augusta Chronicle, the south S
Oldest newspaper is directing its DO
tential energies with it's usual dis
tinguished ability towards inducing
the President to appoint ex-Pres-
dent William Howard Taft to the
position on the Supreme Court Of
the United States made vacant by
the death of Mr. Justice Joseph Rue
ker Lamar. In most instances am
pleased at having the opportunity OF
agreeing with the Hon Thomas w.
Loyless because of the tenableness OF
MS position. The ardent support Of
Mr.. Loyless for Mr. Taft | think. is
pFedicated upon sentiment. The
friendship between Augusta and Mr..
Taft is mutual. the patriotic citizens
OF the historic city of Augusta very
naturally appreciate and feel deep
ly grateful to the thoroughly cosmo-
politan and thoroughbred American
asm of Mr.. Taft.
In honoring Augustus beloved citi-
zen and Georgia's illustrious son, the
lately lamented Mr.. Lamar. Mr..
Taft did what pleased us all and fill
d" e0 our hearts with gratitude for
TINS magnanimous recognition of a
distinguished southern lawyer. In
3illing the place made vacant by JUS
tlce Joseph r, Lamar's death, we
should be governed by more than
sentiment, although am prompt and
ready to admit that sentiment is
mighty good ground to occupy. Has
II ever occurred to the mind of the
able Editor of the Chronicle that
there is one full-fledged democrat on
the United States Supreme Court
bench, and tnat is Chief Justice
White. True he was elevated TO

gowns, with their Gshers who were
dressed in pure white and carried
huge bouquets of the class flowers,
filed down the left aisle of the huge
auditorium. This was very beau
tiful and impressive part of the ex-
ercises.
The invocation was given by Rev
Francis Yarnel of the Episcopal
church, Tallahassee, followed by an.
other beautiful selection Marriage
