Oke Smith Finds Great Opposition In Many Sections

DEFEAT WOULD MEAN HIS POLITICAL DEATH.

ATLANTA Correspondence Savannah Morning News)

ATLANTA, GA, May 26.-Simul-
taneously with the Endorsement of
Gov Smith by Senator Clay comes
the Endorsement of Joseph M. Brown
by Congressman Gordon Lee of the
Seventh congressional district Mr.
Lee says he has known Mr. Brown
all his life, knows him to be a man
of integrity and ability, and he pro
poses publicly to support him.
Now, Congressman Lee has oppo-
sition in the Seventh for renomina-
ton, and it is generally considered,
politically, a pretty bold stroke Tor
a candidate with opposition to openly
take a hand in somebody else's fight
The conclusion which the politicians
are drawing from the action of Con
gresham Lee, therefore, are either
that he knows he has his own race
whipped, or else that he knows Mr.
Brown is going to get an overWhelm-
ing majority of the votes in the Sew
enth district, or both. Those who
pretend to know anything about the
sitnation in the Seventh say it is

Crime in the United States.
Chicago Record-Herald)

Professor Lombrosos essay on
crime in America seems to have in
terested the people of this city chiefly
because it refers to the use of new
weapon in Chicago-"the electric
weapon, a small part of which placed
on the forehead of the victim causes
paralysis by a strong discharge" 1t
was like going away from home to
get the news, and the comment OF
the police was "Ain't his wires
crossed?" and other words to that
same effect
The intimations are that the profess
sor has been led astray by too
credulous disposition, and, seeing that
he is so powerfully affected by strange
details, it is doubtful if he has i'm
proved much on the American au-
thorities from whom he gathered his
information concerning the record
of crime. That the record is dis
graceful and an appalling one has
been declared many times over. Some
two years ago the Record-Herald
commented on the fact that the muir
derers in Chicago averaged three a
week, and, in referring to statistics
that were then just published made
certain comparisons which showed
that:
Germany, with twenty-five times the
population of Chicago, had only 60
per cent more murders; England and
Wales, with sixteen times the popu-
lation, had only twice as many MUIR
ders; France, with twenty times the
population, three and One-third more
murders; Belgium, with three times
{ the population, two-thirds as many
murders; Canada, with two and one
half times the population, one-tenth
as many murders.
Reference was made also to the
opinion of Andrew d. White, who had
made a study of the subject, that the
record of the country was the worst
in the world, with the possible eX-
ception of that made by lower Italy
| and Sicily.
A special bulletin of the census
| bureau which was published last year
also made some comparisons that
were not encouraging. 1t showed that
| there had been an increase in the
percentage of crime to the population
between 1890 and 1904, and that, as
| Professor Lombroso indicates, the
| crimes committed by colored people
| were out of proportion to theil
numbers. 1t showed also that crimes
| were increasing among the negroes
| and among the native whites, but tha
| between 1890 and 1904 the percentage
of crimes committed by foreign-borr
! whites had fallen from 1873 to 23.7
This does not sustain the LombrosC
| theory as to crime and immigration
but we shall draw no differences from
| it because the question is very com,
plicated and there is need of a careful
analysis of the statistics.
The important thing for Americans
| to consider is that crimes of VIC
| lence are exceptionally prevalent
| here, and that there is manifest need
of a more rigorous administration oil

Brown Mems Claims

On the Brown side of it there are
the private assertions of the politi-
clans that he will be elected there
are apparently we'll authenticated re-
ports that Brown is sure to carry
certain counties; that in many of
the counties the result is in doubt
and that in practically every county
carried by Mr.. Smith before, he will,
if he carries it this time, do so by a
reduced majority. There are Brown
clubs in numerous counties claimed
to be for the Governor, which con-
siderably outnumber the Smith
clubs in membership; the labor vote,
the corporation vote, the whiskey
vote, $50 say his opponents), the Con-
federate veteran vote and the indus
trial vote, are all claimed to be
practically solid for Brown
On the other hand the fact is I'M
questioned that Gov Smith is being
met wherever he goes by large and
enthusiastic audiences; that in many
instances he has pOlled these au-
diences at the conclusion of his
speech and practically the entire
number gave him an endorsement by
rising; that the Governor has good
organizations in most of the coun-
ties; that the Smith clubs are show
ing strength and are to be reckoned
with, as shown by the published lists
of members; that the trustees of the
anti-saloon league have Endorsed him
and that many consider him entitled
to the Endorsement of a second term.
Looking at the situation in the
light of these facts it is difficult to
make an impartial prediction; and yet
i L,
doubted unless all the sings fail
that even if elected, Gov. Smith will
go back with such a reduced majority
as to give him rather nuncomfort-
able feeling
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1908-05-27

Gov. Smiths friends realize that he
is making the fight of his life, and
it GOES without saying that no stone
will De left unturned to carry the
eler Cion. Defeat, they say, would
mean his future political oblivion, and
even a reduced majority would hurt
So they are interested not only in
success, but likewise in a majority
somewhere near the equivalent of
that he received two years ago.
Whether he will get any such ma
pority, even if he should be elected is
a matter of serious doubt. 1t is not
disputed that there has been a wide
spread change of political sentiment
in the state, and by all the laws that
should result in a smaller vote for
the candidate against whom the
change is operative.
But strange to say even the old
time politicians do not know just how
to size up the situation; they profess
not to know whether it is going to
be Brown or Smith. There are sfv-
eral of them who have travelled over
the state and made inquiry, and they

The Georgia Anti-Saloon. League is
developing a very bad habit of sip
ping politics on the sly. Have the
league up for drunkenness the first
thing it knoWs-politics is the worst
soPt of intoXication.
Even in Tennessee, not confined to
Georgia, is the sentiment like this as
expressed by the Knoxville Journal
and Tribune: Governor Hoke Smith
has overstepped the mark when he
INDUCED in sport over the diminutive
size of his competitor in the race for
reelection. Georgians were once
very fond of physically small men,
as will be attested when the case of
Alexander H. Stephens is recalled"
The Muscogee County Brown Club
started business last night with a
signed membership of 1000 and a big
and enthusiastic mass meeting. The
club membership will, of course, grow
from day to day and the Brown sup
porters are confident of carrying the
county on June 4.
In the campaign of two years ago,
which was about as lively as the pres
ent one, Governor Smith received
only LAG votes out of a total of
about 1000 cast and a registration
list of about 300. 1t is well known
that the governor is very much weak
er in Columbus and Muscogee county
than he was two years ago and that
the OPPOSITION to him is corresponding
ly stronger The Brown Club expects
to have something like 1000 names
enrolled before election day and that
enough votes will be placed in the
ballot box to easily elect their candi-
date.
Conditions and popular sentiment
are vastly different from what they
were in the last campaign. and the
outlook now is that a little effective
organization will safely land Musco-
geee in the Brown column.
