McLendon Wins
Governor Jos. M. Brown gave to a Savan
nah man the Railroad Commissionership,
which Governor Smith and his Legislature
snatched from Guyt McLendon. A Savannah
judge, Charlton, has decided that the action of
Governor Smith and his Legislature was un
lawful.
Readers of The Jeffersonian remember
how the case originated; but as thousands of
.new names have been put on our lists since
a brief recapitulation may be welcome,
will remember that Mister Hoke
n the gubernatorial office pledged to
do atK 1 kill bears. In fact, a strenuous
person of abvu ’my inches, had grown restive
under the political machine methods which
enabled “the gang” to divide the spoils among
themselves; and to say, years in advance,
what the succession should be.
So I let it be norated around that if some
good, clean, strong Democrat would run for
Governor on a platform of my manufacture,
I’d “holler” to all the old Pops, to ll Come on,
boys, and let's smash the life out of that
Ring.”
So, Pope Brown sends S. C. Tapp down
here, and we agree on essentials. Then Hard
wick arrives, for the same purpose; and we
agree to run Pope against “the gang”.
t So, Pope began to wave his arms and wag
his tongue, like a man who wanted to save his
endangered country.
