RESULT THURSDAY MEANS REV
OLUTlON IN POLITICS OF
GEORGIA.


Atlanta, June 6.-Whila Governor
Hcke Smith was defeated for re-elec-
tion in Thursdays primary, it is the
claim Of his friends in Atlanta that
when the vote is finally tabulated it
viii be found that he received more
votes chan he did in the last cam
paien. The official figures will be re
CURED to tell exactly how much he
was beaten, but it is not thought
Browns majority viii go beyond four
teen thousand, and it may be less.
The late returns from the country
counties this morning and this after
noon tended to cut down rather than
Increase the majority OF the success
ful candidate
II is evident from the signed state
ment issued by the governor that he
does not consider the verdict of
| Thursday as applying against his plan
! for negro disfranchisement He calls
upon his friends and supporters to
rally at the polls on the general cleo
tion day and rahfy the proposed
amendment to the constitution Of the
! state 1t is contended by the govern
ors friends that money and the col
onl2ation Of voters in the large cen
ters had much to do with his defeat.
| The greatly increased registration in
the counties containing the biz cities
Is pointed to as Indicating that many
men were induced to register who had
not registered in former elections.
THAT Tom Watson contributed to q
large extent to the defeat Of the gov
emor is conceded Some Of the GOV
ernors supporters declare Watson to
be the most aggressive and important
political figure in the state. His in
iluence over the popuIists has waned
but little and with these behind him
! he seems to hold the balance of power
in Georgia politics.
The defeat Of the governor ana his
friends means a complete revolution
In Georgia democratic affairs when
the state convention meets in Atlanta
this summer. The democratic ma
chinery will pass into new hands IT
is believed that Ex-Governor Joe Ter
rell VIII be placed on the democratic
Il
executive committee from the state

Augusta. John r. Smith who mana.
iged Joe Browns campaign. will prob
] ably be rewarded by the same dis
tinction. Smith is the Warwick Of the
campaign. He induced Brown to run
"hen the older politicians did not see
that ne had chance and through his
liafd work induced the latter finally
10 take notice Of The campaign and
take OFF their coats.
Clark Howell as the result of this
election will retain his place on the
