“""HERE 15 THE TRUTH
It is generally agreed that
Georgia has too many useless .
offices and too many office
holders holding jobs created to
pay political obligations, and
sucking the life blood of the
state without giving anybthing
of value in return, But things
will not be improved untn we
decide to send men‘to the legis
lature who think more of the
welfare of théir state than they
do of movies, junkets and dol- .
ars,—Sparks. Eagle. | | -
i’*’efl o 0 most truiful | deßti
ment expressed by one of the south
Georgia weekly papers, It is weighty
enough for any newspaper or any
tax paper to weigh,.
The legislature has gotton to the
pass where the upstanding citizen
dodges service there much like he
does in the jury box. So many poli
fti#al degenerates—mbonshine ‘ope
rators and grafting unprincipled
pap hunters have gotton into the
legislative body that the really worth
while member is ot even respect
ed when he gets to Atlanta,
We are getting over that unbear
able seige. We have some very
strong hopes that the men who go
to the next session will keep busi
ness uppermost and try to serve the
public, The states need nothing
more than sane, sensible legislative
deliberations. Under the spell of the
moonshiner, the bull dog pistol hero
and the outlaw—under the spell of
free speech, free press, free license
to raise hell—nothing better could
be expected than what has ocrurred.
It is but natural.
. But Georgians are awakening
from that stupor. They are beginn
‘ing to understand the drift. Now
and then somebody will say some
thing that looks really good—like
the thought we have quoted here
with from Sparks paper. It is a
hopeful sign, We are coming out—
we are now on the verge of a het
ter era. Next year promises to bring
Georgians relief from some of the
irough stuff of this and the past
two years. We are sure the change
will be welcomed,
GEORGE RUCKER
We pause to lay a flower on the
grave of George Ruckelr, Editor and
publisher of the Alphortta Frae
Press. He was our friend—we wer?
his. He had no more idea when we
spent a week together this summer
that death would eall 'SO soon than
we had—we- wers conderned about
the frivolous, the light-Nearted, a re
laxation from work and’worry. He
ig gone “to his ‘rich Prew];rdr-jfor
George Rucker was an outstanding
leader in his community and sec--
tion for honor and honesty, for bu-
Siness integrity and cleanliness in
personal conduct.
| He had remained so long with
his own affai'rs in his own communi
ty that the members of the Georgia
Press never knew well what a fine
character he wore in his big bosom.
But he had come out and made the
most of the last session of the asso
ciation—and he made many friends.
George Rucker was the kind of
citizen who could hono'r the weekly
press of the state. He was no" 0;1!,»"
a frank and ffear¥ess writer, gbut
he mever minced words in a stand
on any issue. He always took high
ground and weilded a st'rong pen
hvhen he undertook to defend that
ground. But he was' more than a
newspaper man. He was county
sthool superintendent and leader in
'oducational affairs, He was bank
president, postmaster, head of the
hoa'rd of stewards in his church, and
as nearly the legal adviser of every
body as a layman could be. His
}county and section will miss him be
cause he was a man of active ser
'vice in many ways,
We shall miss him in the newspa
per life of the state because we
‘had learned to put great faith in
Ewhat he thought and wrote. Mo
seemed to live in an atmosphere of]
faith 'serene. His labors dederved
;vich reward. May he rest in peace.
Lodge and Townshend and Poin
dexter are landed again, we are told
in todays dispatches. We had hoped
that the republicans themselves
would discard these, but since they
have not, our only hope now remains
in democratic supremacy in the Nov

Complaints are still being made

ed for communting ‘the man's sen
tence to life imprisonment. We
thought the jury that gave the wo
man her freedom did wrong—but
they were trying the case, not us.
They were in pogition to know—we
only thought. "
We thought Hudson ought to have
8 e}éhed hemp world without end.

¢ thing. But when the case wenf

iuflanimous recommendation for dle
mengy, , .
( And that was the condition of the
'caae\ when it went to Governor‘
Hardwick, Hig approval of the re-
Evcommcndation was out of place. It
was hardly more than he could do—
'and nobody had any right to go
!out to the governor’s mansion and‘
try to lynch him about exerciging
lthat right under the law, |
We' cannot do away with the par
doning, power—the right of commu
tation, the prison commission. No
body would be safe without it. Jus
tice might miscarry—and it is bet
ter that the guilty go unpunished
sometimes than that Uh; innocent
should be made to suffer. :
. Hudson and the reprobate mother
of those two little bhoys killed them.
That will stand in Albany and Dau
igherty county ‘as established. And
many a man there would have been
hard to handle had he known be
ifore hand what was going to be
the outcome of the case. But the
governor is not at fault. He did
his official duty and does not deserve
censure. If there is blame to be
lodged, it fastens itself upon others
who had to do with the ecase be
fore it ever went to the chief exe
gutive. On the unanimous jrecom
mendation of the board of pardons
the sentence was commuted. It wae
proper.
GETTING DOWN TO BUSINESS
Moultrie Observer:
Dairying has made a fine start in
Turner and Crisp counties. Appa
rently the farmers have gone ipto
the business with a determination to
make good. They are organizing and
comparing notes. Instead .of getting
together and telling troubles, they
are telling of their success. A large
number of fine dairy cows are be
ing shipped into that section from
other parts of the state. The Farmees
3 | .
are making their own feed and will
stop one of the leaks that genera'ly
destroys the profits of the dairying
business, that of buying feed.
Along with dairying they are de
voting more attention to the poul
try business and to raising hogs.
They have sold a lot of chickens
this year, and they will sell more
hogs than before.
The cow, the sow, and thé hen
are being werked for all they are
worth up in Turner énd Crisp.
