TAKE Observation-Disclosures ANYTHING
1,o,,e Smith and Toe Brown Are Both Going to Sweep
Fulton County Almost Unanimously for Governor
Brown Has No Following, and Entilu-
siasm for Smith Foretells Majority
Larger Than Two Years Ago

! GiHGm Tor SnliIn EpANt'i'' 49,"
Larger Than Two Years Ago
From the Atlanta Evening journal.
With the view to making the en-
dorsement of his administration even
more pronounced than was his cleo
tion in the first instance the friends
and supporters of Governor Smith in
Fulton county have perfected the de-
tails for the organization of perhaps
the largest campaign club in the MS
tory Of the state. The actual enroll
ment of members will begin tomoT-
row and it may be stated that the
membership list will exceed four
thousand voters of the governor
home county, as against member
shin of $500 in the HOke Smith club
of Fulton county two years ago, when
the chief executive swept the county
by a decisive majority.
The preliminary details for the
club have already been perfected. An
executive committee of more than
four hundred prominent and repre-
sentative citizens has been selected,
and the members, individually and
collectively, will have actual charge
of the campaign in Fulton county.
Two years ago the executive com
mittee Of the HOke Smith club of Full
ton county consisted of 101 members,
and of this number 81 have been
again enrolled as executive commit
teemen; in addition over 250 others
have volunteered to serve on the com
mittee, and of these more than two
thirds supported another candidate
for governor in the frst campaign.
The friends of the governor anticl-
pate no trouble in rolling up for him
in Fulton county an overwhelming
majority, eclipsing in numbers and
proportion any county vote he receIV-
ed in the campaign of two years ago.
They realize that the county primary,
the congressional campaign and the
municipal primary will bring out
record vote on election daytime
and they propose that Governor
Smiths majority shall be in keeping
with the number of ballots polled,
proportionately It is with this idea
in view that the mammoth executive
committee of the campaign club has
been projected. and reports from all
parts of the city from all classes Of
people Justify the belief that little
trouble will be experienced in accom-
plishing this result.

FuIton county will be one OF the

contest for the gubernatorial nomlna-
tion. and both sides already have
~beir forces out at work. Joseph NJ.
Browns friends seem much enthused
over results so far, and are openly
wagering that the county will go
against the administration by big
majority. They are organizing CLUBS
in every section.
Governor Hoke Smith held con-
ference with his local lieutenants a
few DAYS ago, and it is said that they
frankly told him that he would have
a hard fight to carry his own county.
He did not think so, but he is leaving
no stone unturned to insure success.
Agents have been out for the past
several days circulating petitions Tor
a new Hoke Smith cub. According
to reliable reports the reception met
with has not been fiattering.
One of the first places canyassed
was the Fourth National Bank build
ing. where there are between six and
seven hundred voters. When the
twelfth floor was reached, the clrcu-
Iator having begun on the ground
floor, the paper contained only two
names, according to one who claims
TO have seen it. Another attache or
the building who saw the petition as
the agent was leaving claims that
only three signatures were secured on
the fist canvass. 1t is presumed, In
view Of the fact that the solicitation
was thorough that at least TIRES nun
dred were seen and solicited.
A canvass of the local police force
demonstrated that not one of the two
hundred men employed thereon in
tends voting for the present governor.
No man could be found among those
connected with the fire department
who will support the administration.
1t is said that, excepting about half
dozen, the entire employed force OF
the city government, amounting to
about six hundred men, are solidly
for the opposition.
According to a man who has an Of
fee in the Peters building, where the
governors law firm has offices, petit
ton was circulated there few days
ago, and when it reached the fourth
floor, where the office of the inform
ant is situated, it did not contain
single name.
In the Empire building less tina a
dozen were obtained on the first visit,
and similar results were experienced
in the Prudential BUILDING.

BURIED CLANSMAN.
MeNamara's Remains Inferred. He
Died Last August.

The funeral OF John Mcnamara,
who died in private sanitarium on
August %, was held in Atlanta We'd
nesday, with services at the Church
of the Immaculate Conception. Nc
Namara was one of a well known
band of horse traders whose distin-
guished characteristic appears to be
that they meet once year on April
/ for the purpose of the burial of
their dead. and there can be no flu
neral until that gathering. The flu
nerals are always held in Atlanta or
Nashville.
1t had been three years since the
clan, sometimes called the "Clan
O'Hara," held a funeral in Atlanta.
At that time a funeral procession a
mile long gathered to follow Tom
O'Hara s wife to the cemetery. He
was then leader of the clan.
Members of the clan were in At
lanta from six states, and all the car
riages in the city were engaged for
the occasion.

NO DEMAND FOR CONvICTS
STATE MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY IN
AGAIN LEASING HER FELONS.
Tho ComnIaint of Convict Labor En-
ployers Is That the Zebras Are
q Drug on Their Hands.

Fear is expressed that unless con-
ditions materially improve within the
newt few months Georgia will have
dificult time in leasing her conyicts
again at ANYTHING like a satisfactory
price.
IT is said that the only reason that
lumber manufacturers in south Geor-
gia who employ convict labor have
not shut down their plants as a re-
suit of the business depression is that
they are required under their con-
tracts with the state to keep the con-
victs at work, and that is the only
way in which they can do it.
Several of those employing con-
victs have recently urged the secre-
rotary of the prison commission to
send them no more men; those they
have, they say, are largely drug on
their hands, as they would lire to
close for a while or materially cur
tail their output, but are so situated
that they cannot.
One employer of convict labor
writes that he recently captured an
"escape," while another convict who
had escaped from his camp thres or
four years ago had come in and given
himself up.
1T looks like they can't make a
living on the outside" he wrote,
"and they are coming back to the
F~ hplnQ
taken care of.
Another wrote that he had two
more men than his contrast with the
state called for; that he simply could
not stand the expense and asked that
they be transferred elsewhere AS he
was WORKING mp to AIS contrast 8Iase
his request was cOmpned with. And
vet less than a year ago camps all
over the state were begging for all
the extra men the state could FUR
nish.
The convicts are bringing the state
about 1925 for each able-bodied man
There are a number of sub-leaSes
where the price has gone up, and IN
one or two instances to more than
S4OO. This is what had encouraged
the state authorities to believe the
state would get even better price
under the next contract, which will
go into effect April 1, 1909, unless
the legislature should decide to put
all the convicts on the public roads
which is scarcely considered likely.
But unless there is material i'm
provement over the conditions pre-
vailing now in the lumber business
and in other lines it is feared the
state will not even do as well as the
present figures.
There are circumstances which are
likely to cut some figure when the
general assembly takes up the ques-
ton of the future disposition of the
convicts this summer.
