1000 UNION MEN
IN FULTON COUNTY
HOKE SMITH CLUB.
Prominent Union Man Writes About the
Campaign In Smiths Home County.

we had one or two conferences for
the adjustment of questions be-
tween the Union and the Journal,
/ have always found the officers of
the Union reasonable and Just.
In the only instance in which l
disagreed with them I was able to
convince them that ] was right,
and they yielded the contention.
The Union helped us to secure
able, competent and sober men,
and | am sure the Journal has new
er suffered from the recognition of
Union men.
''Please convey to the Union my
very best wishes, and believe me,
Very sincerely yours,
Choke Smith"
The above was not cooked up
for this occasion. 1t was written
eight years ago. 1t has hung in a
frame over our secretary's desk
for eight years, where every pass
ing printer can see and remember
and cherish the testimonial Of a
friend. Please note the date,
"May 5, 1900"
Only Three Unions Not Represented.
Another fact: Enrolled on the
membership Of the Fulton County
Hoke Smith Club are the names Of
nearly 1900 working men who
compose the thirty five unions Of
the Atlanta movement, and with
three exceptions, every union is
represented. The three excep-
tions are THE BARTENDERS
LEAGUE, THE BROTHER.
HOOD OF BREWERY WORK
ERS and UNION COMPOSED
ENTIRELY OF NEGROES.
HOke Smiths Opposition.
OF course Hoke Smith has oppo-
Sition in Fulton County. Besides
the exception noted, there is a
considerable sprinkling of men
who are honestly opposed to pro
hibition. Here is where the
railroads are getting in their work.
Taking advantage of this element
of opposition they are striving to
make the impression that it is all
because of the regulation policy,
when in reality they could make
but little show if the anti prohiol-
tion sentiment did not kick up the
dust for them.
k1iIrads Plaling ShroWd Game.
The railroads are playing a
shrewd game. They cannot hope
to elect Joe Brown, BUT THEY
/ DO HOPE TO MAKE THE I'M
PRESTON ON THE NEXT GOV
ERNOR THAT ORGANIZED
LABOR FOUGHT HIM. For the
first time in the history of Georgia
organized labor has a friendly ad-
ministration at the capitol. This
friendship between the state officers
and the wage earners must be
nipped in the bud, is the plan of
the corporations. They hope to
nip it in this campaign. But they
will get badly fooled. Hoke
Smiths program is based on moral
i and neutral conviction and if every
Union man should vote against
him he wonld still pursue his
chosen line. The railroads cannot
tolerate the interference ola peo-
ple's commission when they desire
to reduce wages. They no doubt
anticipate that they will have an
Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1908-05-14

AS the day for the primary ap-
proaches it begins to look more
like a bigger majority for Hoke
Smith than he received two years
ago.

all the west bound freight and pas

there will be no Misunderstanding Of

be reduced to the minimum.
The congestion that has marked
