Most of our ambitious young

utter physical collapse is the result,
and it takes years and years to

Method of Campaign Forced

Governor Smith constantly charges
that Il cannot be seen," and asks
why | don't go about over the state.
In this he we'll knows that he viO-
lates the rule of law which says that
no man shall take advantage of his
own wrong. He had this primary
called for so early a date that no
candidate against him would have
time to go to more than limited
number of counties. Hence the only
recourse was to reach all Of them
by correspondence. But the best
proof of whether | need be afraid
to ''be Seen is found in the fact that
Governor Smith and / have been
seen" almost constantly in Atlanta
for thirty-odd years with the result
that more than 5000 Fulton county
citizens have signed cards wherein
they have declared their purpose to
vote for me and against Governor
Smith, and | am daily in conference
with hundreds Of our fellow citizens
from every section of the state who
call at my eaadquarters.

Desecrates the Grave

Emphasis on this point is added by
the fact that Governor Smith for
partisan purposes has not hesitated
to attack my father in his grave.
With all the emphasis that gen
tIeman can possess, | denounce such
methods. To my mind the adoption
of them is beyond the pale Of an
honorable man. tine who would coun-
tenance them in politics, or who, in
private life would permit such
charges to be made, even in his priv
ate interests, not only insults the
sense of propriety of his fellow citi-
zens, is not only unworthy of the of
fee in question, but is morally un-
clean.

defeat which would seriously reflect
upon my private character, for | had
personally suffered this experience at
the hands of Governor Smith. an
ticipated such attacks, and determin-
ed to bear them Tor the sake of the
moral mad business interests of the
state.
But I must confess to profound as
tOnishment at the extent to which
these attacks have gone. | did not
dream that there was any man, w e
ther candidate for the high office of
governor or mere political thug
who would descend to the shameless
depths which this campaign has, in
fact, reached. | regret it sincerely,
and have sought to keep my own
campaign aloof and to protect from
such methods the wage earners, the
business men and the farmers who
asked me to run. This has been diff
ficult in the extreme. If even some
measure of success has attended my
efforts, | am more than gratitied.
1t has been charged by Governor
Smith in his speeches that l lined up
with the negroes to defeat General
Gordon for governor in 1868. This
charge is absurd l was but a 16-
year-old boy at that time.
Governor Smith has also charged

4 SHOOTING AFFRAY
SATURDAY NIGHT,

Saturday night about s o'clock, on
the corner of Church and Mills street,
q pistol shot rang out on the air, and
soon a great crowd assembled to see
what was the cause. It seems from
what we can gather from the city mar
shall that Marion Harris, colored, night
jwatchman at the ice factory, was walk
ing down Church street with Austin
Smiths wife, who came here from Tate,
Ga. Smith spied the couple, and rushed
up and grabbed his wife. Harris claimed
that Smith had an open knife and was
about to make an attack upon him. He
had his pistol handy, and it was fired.
All parties Immediately scampered
away, and the crowd gathered. The
two negro men and women evaded ar
rest by the marshal.

surgeon,s Knife Cures Hendache.

After suffering excruciating pains In hiA
head for twenty-five years, Louis Wolf
son of Cincinnati has secured relief by
having the surgeons cut out two nerves.
The pain was above the eyes and at the
temples and recurred four or five times
a week. He had consulted the leading
specialists, tried medicines, various forms
of massage and electrical treatment in
vain. The two offending nerves. one on
each side, were between one and two
inches long and about as thick as a pin.
They are termed sensory nerves--that is.
nerves which give the sense of feeling and
not control of the movements of mus
cles. The headaches have not returned
since the operation. Local surgeons say
this Is the first case of the kind on record.
