The committee probably should have done one of two things—either it should have provided for a ‘“run off” primary in the event no candi date receives a majority of the coun ty unit votes or it should have award ed the nominations according to the plurality of the popular vote, Either ylan would have been prefer. able to (he one the committee dld frame up—for that plan looks square ly to the prespect of a deadlocked convention, and rather encourages ghe idea, Do the people of Georgla want a deadlocked convention? Sideligh!s guesses they don't—and a straw ballot of the people on that question pron ably would demonstrate as much.

Especially, perhaps, will tha com mittee’s attitude toward the proposed plaza plan in Atlanta be fought, and in other ways the forthcoming report looks very much like a “hot proposi tilon!"” And Governor Slation is going to do exactly wha Hoke Smith did -——swing onto the Governorship while seeking the Senatorship.— Only the Choicest Selections L d ° In High-Grade Furniture We have four mezzanine floors and an entire floor of the adjoining building, which has been connected with our main store by a wide arch door.

Well, this matter may not be one of surpassing importance, one way or the other—indeed, it probably isn't— but it is as well, perhaps, to keep the record straight. - Governor Smith resigned the Gov ernorship to accept the Senatorship, but without submitting the matter to a primary election, in which the peo ple might givé expression to their wisihes in the premesis, He was a candidate before and was elected by the Legislature, without primary instructions, while he was the Gov ernor, following the sudden death of Senator Clay., Regardless of opinion. one way or the other, those are the facts of the case, Governor #laton is not proposing to resign the Governorship, unless the people, in a primary election, duly wuthorize him to do so. The people may or may not so authorize him, but until they speak, he will not move. There is some difference in the at titudes of the two men--but conclu gfons differ as to the questions in volved, as they well may, in entire honesty of opinion, both ways.
