FOR GOVERNOR.

And then comes the gubernatorial
race with three candidates already
mentioned as practical certainties
Clifford Walker, states attorney gen
eral; John N. Holder, speaker of he
house of representatives; John T.
Boifeuillet, formerly clerk of the
house for II years and now mem
Der of the railroad commission.
Attorney General Walker has
quietly been running for three or four
years. He has made many, speeches
over the state on patriotic and civic
occasions, has acquired a strong per-
sonal following, is thoroughly .affable
and likeable personally.
Wide Experience.
Colonel John T. Boifeuillet is like
wise known far and wide and favor
ably. His experience covers the field
of journalism, legislative work, diplo-
matte work and service on the rail
road commission. He was clerk of
the house of Representatives for II
years and made host of friends. AS
private secretary to the late Secre-
tary A. o. Bacon he gained a great
deal of valuable experience in nation
al affairs. For more than two years
he was special first secretary to the
American embassy in London, where
he met the public men of Great Brit
ain and was sent to Paris on number
of important missions.
Holder Has Friends.
Speaker John T. Holder also has
his following, built up through long
years of service in the legislature.
He is a Methodist, an editor, banker,
farmer, a great friend of the "coun-
try folks" good politician and a
fine gentleman any way you take him.
So far, therefore, as personal
friends are concerned, it is doubtful
if any three candidates could be Sc
lected among all the public men of
the state who would launch a cam
paign with larger followings than
Clifford Walker, John T. Boifeuillet
and John N. Holder. All are expe-
rienced and we'll trained in politics
all are possessed of innumerable
warm friends throughout the state.
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1919-01-21

that William H. Burwell, of Sparta,
the veteran legislator and former
speaker of the house, who took a
prominent part in the senatorial cam
paign last summer as supporter and
stump speaker for William J. Harris,
is being urged to make the race.
The Macon Telegraph, according to
the gossip going the rounds, is groom
ing Mr.. Burwell as a candidate rep
resenting South Georgia in opposition
to Governor Dorsey and Senator
Hoke Smith as candidates residing
in North Georgia and carrying the
supposed political handicap of resi-
dence in Atlanta.
May Yet Back In.
Mr.. Burwell has several times stat
ed that he was out of politics, but
political circles are not prepared to
bid him adieu until he has actually
taken his departure and stayed away
long enough to prove his resolve to
quit the game. Politicians know that
politics is fascinating game, like
playing poker or playing the ponies,
and they know that man who has
gov IL III HIS pIoou through many
years of consistent adherence to the
game is not very likely to quit right
off at time when he has worked
himself into a position to launch his
candidacy for some high office.
The dope concerning Mr.. Burwell's
candidacy for the senate is not pred
icated on the report that Governor
Dorsey may not make the race 1t is
expected that Mr.. Burwell will OPP
pose both the governor and Senator
Smith. He is a rafting good stump
speaker, made a fine impression with
his successful fight on Thomas E.
Watson in the Macon convention last
October, and possesses fine equipment
as a legislator.

GANGS OF THIEVES
STEAL FROM ROADS
NATIONWIDE GRAFT AMONG
EMPLOYES-LOSS is $25,-
100000 IN YEAR.

Twenty-Five million dollars worth
of goods are stolen from the rail-
roads of the nation each year by
gangs of petty thieves, most of them
composed of railroad employees, ac-
cording to a report soon to be made
by William j. Flynn, chief of the
secret service of the railroad admin
istration, as the first step in a pro-
gram to wipe out this loss to the
government.
Numerous arrests already have
been made and prosecutions begun,
but the campaign, which will be
waged by $4,000 railroad detectives
and inspectors under Mr. Flynn, has
not yet assumed anything like a ma
tion-wide scope. Forty employees
have been discharged in Washington
in the last two weeks.
Wide Range of Petty Crimes.
The thefts cover a wide range of
petty crimes, such as stealing from
passengers, especially on sleeping
cars, Juggling of railroad and Pull
man tickets, overcharges for cash
IafeS ana mileage, improper hanullng
of baggage and parcel checks, padded
dining car charges, etc. Thefts of
bootleg" liquor, being taken from
wet to dry territory, have been espe-
cially numerous, as passengers have
been loath to report such losses.
at is startling fact, but at least
65 per cent of the thefts from the
railroads are committed by employ
es," said Chief Flynn. "Much of the
robbing is of a petty nature, but it is
the work Of organized gangs of
thieves which have been preying on
the railroads for years"

FOR IL YEARS OF TIME WILLIAM
HARDWICK DID NOT SEE A
HUMAN BEING.

Deep in the Rocky Mountains, 25
miles from the nearest village, Pago-
sa Springs, Colo, lives a man who
for II years had not seen a human
being. Like "Tarzan of the Apes" he
dwelt among the beasts of the noun
tains, drove of wild horses his most
intimate companions.
For 40 years he has lived out of
touch with mankind. His name is
William Hardwick, and he is known
rs "the mysteryman of the noun
tains."
Stories had been told at Pagosa
Springs of "a wild man who rOamed
he hills leading a herd of two score
1ild horses"

POSSIBLE CANDIDATES
ARE BENG FELT Of
POLITICAL PROGNOSTICATORS
ALREADY GIVING dope"
ON THE BIG RACES.

ATLANTA, Ga.-That Gov. Hugh
M. Dorsey will not be candidate for
United States senator two years
hence is now the dope being quietly
discussed around the capitol.
According to those who are doing
the talking the high cost of living in
Washington has become so acute that
Governor Dorsey does not relish the
prospect of trying to live and main
tain himself on a senator's salary.
1t is bad enough to be governor of
Georgia at $4,000 a year but to be
a United States senator at $500 a
year is great deal worse.
Not Rich Man.
The governor is not a rich man.
He is dependent upon his earnings
or his salary as a public official. If
it takes all his salary as a public of
fetal to support him and his family,
and perhaps a little more, he will not
be able to put aside an accumulation
for the future. He will spend the
best years of his life barely breaking
even from year to year, and have no
nest egg when it's over.
This line of reasons is said to have
discouraged Governor Dorsey from
making the race for the senate. Of
course he has made no public state
ment on the subject, either one way
or the other. But the information is
said to have come from his very close
friends, with whom he has discussed
the matter.
Bill Burwell May Run.

FIFTY HIDES, TANNED
BEFORE CIVIL WAR,
FOUND IN INDIANA

Fifty large hides, tanned before
the civil war, have been found by
leather company at Columbus,
Ind. The hides were discovered
under several feet of earth on the
site of tannery which disap-
peared many years ago. A nearby
stream frequently overlooked the
site without apparent injury to
the hides, which were discovered
when the roofing of hogs disclos-
ed several watts.
