The surprise in Georgia was the
election of Tom Hardwick, due we
think to his opposing the new tax
law. While the Sid Morris exposure
floored Gov. Slaton. O yes, we are
willing to pay tax to run the State
economically, but not to run farm
trains, pay cowtick doctors, pay Hud
son guano inspectors, pay tax equa
lizers and a hundred other things
that designing men have fastened on
the people.
Should the equalizers find enough
land in one spot to make a county,
we would suggest that they call it
Slaton county, as we already have a
Hart county.
We close here, wishing you all
mightly well. Yours in love,
Ga. A. MADDOX.

at Rome, as they did at Carthage,
