THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1922 It took the pe.ople of Georgia less than two years to tire of Governor Thos. W. Hardwiek. In the Democratic primary a fewdays ago he Was beaten for another term by former Attorney General* Clifford Walker. The Times does .not know whether Hardwiek has made a good governor or not. His frieiuls say that he has; his opponents say that he has not. However that may be, his opponents outnumber his friends and their judgraen. found effective expression at the ballot box. The singular thing to many is that llayding was ever elected governor, especially since his election followed so closely.upon his defeat for reelection to the United States senate, which was brought about, it was stated ll A. T 1 1 at uie lime, uy nis 11011-support of the government iu the World war. He was classed us antiWilson and aiiti-everything else - tending to promote the success ol the country's cause in the war. Uc made common cause with . Tom Watsou iu fighting the Wil ,m son administration. and the two got the ear of so many people in Georgia that Hnrdwick landed the governorship while Watson v/as corraling l'or himself a seat in the United States senate. Watson was the stronger of the two and did much to elect Hardwick. This year Watson turned upon Hardwick because, one is led to believe from press reports, the governor is not in sympathy witn the Ku Klu* Klau, while the-senator is uuilerstooil to be friendly to the organization and resented Hurdwick's opposition to it. That may or may not have been th" cause of the break between the .former political buddies, but whatever the cause, there is nothing surprising in it. It would have been surprising, however, had Hardwick succeeded in holding the friendship of Watson, who insists upon having his way in everything and who has little time for th P irtMIl U'hn <Uuu?Konu I with him. Wntsou entered 'the United States senate with a great blare of trumpets and led many people to expect wonderful things of him. These people are now undeceived, since he has fallendown on the job. Watson is a man ^of outstanding ability in many respects, but in one important respect at least he is as weak as -circus lemonade?he is disgustingly self-opinionated, as may be learned by reading the articles he writes about himself in his weekly paper. Of course, it is more important that achoo^ boys learn all about forward passes, end runs and all that sort of thing than it is that they take advantage of the opportunity the taxpayers have pro, Tided for them to learn the English language, history, mathematisc, geography and the other trivia 1 subjects taUght *n^e i V ' k - y ' ; * * * / election this fall of Democratic .senators in the North and West will not press the League of Nations as an issue in the campaign. The decision is a wise one. for the League of Nations is as dead in this country as a smoked herring?which isn't saying that the League of Natious was not a commendable scheme to promote world peace, but is simply stating a fact recognized by all informed people. It would be inexcusable folly for the Democrat* is party to tie itself to a dead issue such as the League of Nations, and the sooner the party gets entirely away from it the better the party will fare in the sections of the country where i there is a chance of regaining' power. And along with the tln'ow- j nig overboard of the League of' Nations there ought to be a gen- j eral awakening among the Demo- | erats of the coimtrv i<? 11?t\n?? .hut Wood row Wilson is no Ion-*! ger the leader of tlie party and ' hut the best thing to do is to discontinue consulting him about j party policies. Wilson has had nis day. Few people now care ?vhat he thinks ot this or that public matter. Perhaps he means \\ell when he undertakes to tell lut people their duty as he did in lulling lor the defeat in the recent Missouri primary of Senator James A. lieed, with the result .Hat lieed was renominated, as he hould have been, but the number of people who believe thai he means well is greatly exceeded i?v those who ure convinced that iii; is often actuated by spite and Jtids greater concern 111 trying to get even with some one who has cot gulped down "my policies" liiin liu iimiu in ... ? ? *..? ai\ V4W O 111 11 JiltQ IU JirOIIlillt?
