AN ABLE CANDIDATE.

Few men in Georgia have a higher
conception of public duty than volney
Williams, editor of the Waycross Jour
nal-Herald.
This was proven when he resigned
the place of umpire in the DucktoWn
copper cases to serve in the legisla-
tllre, an act that entailed a financial
sacrifice of about five thousand dol
lars. He could not have both offices,
and he felt it was his duty to the pep
pie who had elected him TO represent
them in preference to holding an ap-
pointive job, given him ny just one
man.
Mr.. Williams is going to be a candi-
date for railroad commissioner, and
we hope, as we believe, that he will
be elected.
The trouble about such candidates.
as his is that they are overshadowed
in years of great political strife, and
in the excitement of voting for a SEN
ator, a Governor, or a Congressman,
the people pay little attention to the
men who are running for the smaller
Offices For that matter only a small
percentage of the voters know who
are railroad commissioners now;
fewer others care. Not one man out
of fifty can tell the personnel of either
the railroad or the state highway COM
mission, and not one out of a thous-
and really cares. They vote for the
man whose name sub-consciously APP
peals to them the most, or for tue
man somebody has asked them tdWote
for, or for the man whose name
strikes them as being more familiar.
Some vote by whims, scratching the
first or the last name.
In consequence of this state of a.
fairs, really able man, who is anX-
ious to serve his state is frequently
deferred from seeking these offices,
and no less frequently tbs candidate
of inferior ability is elected.
We do not know whether Mr.. Will
liams is going to have any opposition,
Since it is said that the present in
,umbent, Judge Hillyer, will not offer
for reelection; but in any event we
trust that the people of Georgia will
take sufficient interest in this race to
vote for man who is qualified in
every way to hold the Office and who is
deserving of it.

Arthur J. Dunn, Of Clemens, Also Ex-

Herman M. Knudson and Walter T.
Huber, of this city, and Arthur j.
Dunn, of Clemens, have been exempted
by the district board, according to
notice received today by the local eX-
emption board.
The formal exemptions constitute the
district boards reversal Of its Garlic!
ruling when it certified these men for
service. The three were in the list of
$50 appealed by County Attorney Scott
from the decision Of the local board,
that exempted them. to the distric
board. Nine of this number were re
ported back for service in a ruling OF
the district board that reversed the
local boards decision. Now the dis
trict board has reversed its own, ruling
in these three cases and the eXemp-
ton of the local board stands. Accord
ing to information received by the To-
cal board regarding these three cases,
the district boards ruling was in err
rOr, as it seems not to have had any
thing on file in its office showing the
cause why these men should be sum
moned for service. Both Knudson and

upon them.

Board7,an Asks TO I
Be Sent To France

Life and training in the naval re-
serve at New London, Conn. does not
appeal to Elderkin Boardman. the son
of Mr.. and Mrs. c. H. E. Boardman, of
this city. The young man, who has
been in the naval reserve since early
in the spring, wants more action. That
desire probably accounts for the APP
plication he has made to the navy de-
partment to be transferred from the
naval reserve to the regular service in
order that he may have a change on
reaching the other side.
Boardman wrote Senator Kenyon,
thru whom he made his appeal to the
navy department for transfer, that the
initials of the United States naval re-
serve force ~. S. n. K. f." stood for
You shall never reach France" and
he wanted to get away from the
"hoodoo" of the initials. Boardman
was first in training at Newport, but
later he was transferred t, New Lon
don He recently visited his parents
here while on a short furlough.

made a good sheriff, asked for a sec

and yet Mr.. Kiene would deprive

now under the circumstances.
