He did not know what Clark How

that Mr.. Howell was closely connected
with the corporate interests of the

Lastly he touched the platform o!

thought all good people, even to the
negro, would be compelled to stand
upon that platform and that he felt
inclined to the belief that Col Es-

the purpose of aiding in the defeat
of Hoke Smith rather than any hope

hibition contest in Pulaski county that
the negroes were registered and voted
at so much per head by the contend
ing parties.
Col Berner waxed eloquently Oh
general discussion of the present
conditions in Georgia. He severly re-
buked the let we'll enough alone idea
and showed that since the candidacy
of Hoke Smith the Legislature had
passed bills making it misdemeanor
to buy or sell votes or to lobby any
measure before the legislature. Both
laws, he claimed, were due to the
specific platform of Mr.. Smith.
Mr.. Berner was accorded the closest
attention and although the evening
was intensely warm he held the close
car of his auditors for two hours
and thirty minutes. He closed his
address with magnificent peroration
likening the coming primary on Au-
gust % to the great cyclonic storms
often in midsummer concentrating all
the forces of the elements bursting
forth in terrible down pour of hail
and rain and snow. He predicted that
on August % the political atmo5-

omical ones and that tens of thous,
ands of ballots would fall in all sec
tions of the commonwealth and would
bury forever in political oblivion the
hleached bones of the rotten political
ring that ever protituted the demo
cracy of the empire state of the

The peIoration was received with
widest applause from the audience ana

busy shaking hands with the 400

bled to hear his discourse. The ad-
