BURWELL'S CANDIDACY.

Speaker Willim H. Burwell, of the
Georgia house of representative has
definitely said he would not be a can
didate for governor this year, but Pc
culiarly makes his announcement for
two years hence, according to some OF
the wise political observers in Geor-
gia.
Mr.. Burwell spoke very plainly on
several questions which are interest
in Georgia today. He might think that
they will not grow prominent enough
in the present campaign to warrant
spokesman, but possibly in two years
it will be an occasion for his entry.
Georgia's political seasons cover too
huch time now. A man is running
months and months before his an
nouncement. The new law which
gives county officers a four years term
will doubtless save Georgia from some
Of her troubles, but it is not a cure
all.
Dr. L. G. Hartman, one of the can
didates for governor in the present
campaign, was debated in 1914, and
almost Immediately he began his cam
paign for the next election. After
Governor Harris had been in Office on
" seven months, his opposition became
open and active.
A good man has no time to fill the
duties of his office. Can't we have a
little peace of mind for the oice-holder
and when a decent, opportune time
arises then oppose him honorably

POPE BROWN.

Judge John A. Cobb, of Americas, re,
firing president of the Georgia State
Agricultural society," makes the sug
gestion that Pope Brown, of Hawkins
Vile, be elected to head the society for
the ensuing twelve months at the an
nual meeting to be held in Athens next
month. 1t is understood that Mr..
Browns friends will offer his name and
are already actively promoting his in
terests in aspiring to this Office.
1t looks to The Telegraph like a
pretty good selection. Mr. Brown is a
man who for good number of years
has devoted considerable of his not in
valuable time to projects looking to the
general development and progress OF
the state and its institutions. In mat
tiers agricultural he has ever since
youth been closely engaged both as
practical farmer with fairly extensive
personal operations and as a student
and exponent of the necessary theory
coming more and more to be such vi
tai necessity in soil tillage in the
Southeast. In addition he is a man o;
large affairs generally, of more than
ordinary broad and comprehensive per-
spective and accustomed to dealing
with public matters from a state-wid
angle. The distinction to be conferred
on him would not be merely an earned
personal honor for him, but should re-
dound in no light measure to the sue
cess and eXaltation of the society. an
organization that has become an in
creasingly potent factor in the most
important development Georgia has
been experiencing in the last genera

TO CARVE MEMORIAL
ON STONE MOUNTAIN

ATLANTA, Ga, March 3O.-Gutzen
Eorglum, the noted sculptor who will
carve on the granite face of Stone
Mountain a stupendous memorial to
the Southern Confederacy has NOV
ed his family to Atlanta, and estab-
lished studio near the mountain,
where he will be at work every day.
The memorial will be a bas-relief
picture of Gen. Robert E. Lee, and
other prominent leaders grouped on
horses with their staff officers and
an army going into battle with ar
tillery, cavalry and infantry. The
carving will cover a precipice AGO
feet high and 1000 feet long and
will be without a parallel among ali
the great memorials of the world.
not even excepting the sphinx and
pyramids of Egypt.
The sculptors will work in iron
cages suspended by steel cables from
the top of the mountain, and it will
take years to complete the memorial,
the cost being estimated at $3,00C.-
GOO TI@WNy
The use of the mountain for this
purpose, and of a large tract of land
en- the side of the mountain to be
saryed, has been decided to an asso-
citation by Sam Venable, of Atlanta,
who owns the mountain.
In addition to the bas-relief there
will be a magnificent temple cut 10
to the solid granite of the mountain
side. In front of the temple will be
massive pillars and leading up to it
will be steps cut into the granite.
This temple will be the shrine OF
the United Daughters of the Confed-
eracy, and the general meeting of that
organization will be held there every
year.

A LONG-NEEDED LAW.
Clean up!

Representative Crisp of Americas.
has presented to the House bill which
il enacted into a federal statute, is cal
culated to make prohibition prohibit in
prohibition states.
This bill would prevent the internal
revenue department from issuing re-
ceipt for the sale or manufacture of al.
coholic liquors in the territory of the
United States where the sale or manu-
facture is prohibited by state law
If this bill is passed, dry states will
be dry in fact. For the sale Of liquor
would be offensive to Uncle Sam, ana
the old gentleman is rather particular,
vigorous and prompt about taking no
tice of personal affronts In addition
it will tend to intensity the growing
sentiment in favor of national prohi-
bition.
There are so many bills introduced
ii. congress every year, so few really
meritorious, that the best are often
lost in the shuttle. But it is to be hoped
that Representative Crisp's will COM
mend itself to the consideration of the
House. If passed by that body, it's pas
sage through the Senate would not be

chosen Prof. Antonio dc AgUilar
Cruz, a Spaniard by birth and edu.
cation and man with IN unusually
distinguished record.
Professor Cruz was born in Seville,
Spain. 1876. He secured his educa-
tion I'm the parochial schools Of that
city and graduated from the Sevillu
conservatory Of music. ON account
of his unusual musical ability he was
sent TO Madrid, and from thas we'll
known conservatory received n gold
medal as magma cum laude graduate.
At the outbreak of the Spanish
American war he was appointed
bandmaster of the Spanish royal ma
rine band. and sailed from Spain on

Professors Cruz's musical ability Is
of the very highest order. He will

teacher Of his native language he has
few equals. lie possesses a strong per-
sonalty and has always been a prime
favOrite with students.
The securing Of Professor Cruz as
n member Of East Central faculty is
universally approved and will add
much prestige to the already splendid
record Of the institution.
