Whether Mr. Butler is successful, or whether Mr. Barrett endorses him. opens op an Interesting question e mong the spectator* of Southern po lities with regard to its affect on the two major parties. - It la said here that Mr. Barrett had an ambition te be secretary of agriculture in 1923 when President Wilson came Into power. Ha waa net appointed, and it in uo betrayal of confidence to say that Mr. Barrett baa not been an admirer of the WO eon administration. Ha croseed with Herbert Hoover during the war on agricultural matters. The Georgia man has been a leading critic of the policies of the Wilson administration. In this connection, it is Interesting to learn that Mr. Barrett and Sena tor-elect Thomas K. Watson, of Ga., are close personal friends Watson has charged In hie Georgia paper that Mr. Barrett waa not appointed See retary at Agriculture because of the alleged animosity, of JosephTu multy, Secretary to the President, to ^Arother^delJght is the feet that Mr. Watson and Mr. Butler were to gether in the Populist days of tho nineties.
