could, with impunity, practice all manner of
fraudulent deception use money and whis-
key, vote black negroes kick $4,000 white
voters, gag the other $4,000, renew the at
tack on the county unit plan, which safe
guards the country counties from the city
ringsters, suppress resolution approving the
Prohibition Act and demanding it's enforce
ment. Maddened by their success, and be-
Geving that the nomination put their man be-
yond the reach of popular wrath they VIC
lated the law and every rule of propriety by
intruding themselves riotously upon eight
thousand people, peacefully assembled; and,
regardless of the feelings or the safety or
the lives of the ladies and gentlemen there
present, broke up the meeting.
They will soon learn what Ham Patterson
learned; what Joe Sibley learned; what Taft

Livingston learned.

Holder President of the Senate and Speaker
of the House, respectively.
Jack Slaton left the chair, took the floor,
and made a rousing speech in favor Of the
Income Tax, thus giving noble old friend,
Senator John johnson, indispensable aid.
Nevertheless, it is announced that Jack Sla-
ton is to be sacrificed
In the place Of Speaker Holder, is to be
put William Burwell, of Hancock County,
who opposed the Income Tax bitterly, and
who made that detestable speech against the
Ten Hour Law, which was offered in the
interest of the men, women, and children who
work in our mills.
Now, after having done all this, would you
be much surprised if the people at last found
you out and dropped you?

would you have done!
You would have put on the mask of meek
submission, gone here and there throughout
the state, making educational speeches, pro
Tossing to have the good of the country at
heart, posing as the champion of the common
people, and modestly claiming that you your
self had done, single handed, all the reform
work that all the reformers had done during
the last twenty years.
Then suppose that a chance remark,
dropped by Certain Person at his house,
to certain friend of his. concerning the
absurd methods of the Great Reformer's cam
paign had caused sudden change in those
methods; which change was the cause of the
Great Reformer's winning second nomina-
ton by very narrow ma jority. What would
you have done after that!
Governed by the law of your nature, you
would have Immediately dropped the mask
of meek sllbmsslveness, and would have made
an odious display of your true character
You would have treated $4,000 white Demo
Gratis as though they were niggers. You
would have tied and gagged the $4,000
white Democrats who voted for y0u. You
would have clothed with supreme power the
chairman and the secret committee taking
away from a sovereign convention of the
people the right to hear measures and resolu-
tons that were being proposed to 1t. the
right to deliberate, the right to discuss the
report of the committee, the right to modify
it, and the right to appeal from the decision
of the Chair.
Having shown your lack of sense and your
lack of prncip pie in this manner, you would
have shut off all criticism by having the
would-be critics howled down. You dared
not allow your own followers to learn how
despotlc your new rules were.
Not content with the outrage committed
upon your own convention, you would have
conspired with two desperate and unscrupul-
Gus Congressman to have the Auditorium in

semblage of ladies and gentlemen lawlessly
broken up.
Having no profound intuition as to popu-
lar sentiment, and being nothing more,
really, than talented hypocrite and i'm
postor-possessing not one ray of genius, and
actuated only by intense selfshness-you
would fancy that you could safely indulge
your inordnate greed for power and your
inward contempt of public opinion.
Consequently, you almost stupefy with
establishment your own following by publish
ing the account Of your campaign expenses,
which shows that you spent more than seven
teen thousand dollars to get the nomination
to an office whose salary is only four thou
sand per year.
Thus you have been stupid enough to
furnish the evidence that owing to the
methods of such great reformers as yourself,
the time has come in Georgia when poor
man need not offer for Office.
Moreover, your expense account shows how
you got the support of the Union City crooks.

Judge Hines Ought Not to Have
Done This

Done This
A few days previous to the election on the
twenty-third of August, there were sent out
from Atlanta thousands of copies of cir
cular letter 81 gned flames X. Hines" The
signature made on the copy in my possession
was stencilled,-not made with pen. In the
last paragraph, and separate from all the
other declarations made in the letter, occurs
these words
.'Our mutual friend. Thos E. Watson, is
neutral. This is significant. watch the line
up You will see that the cause of the COM
mon people is in the hands of Hoke Smith"
BY some means which we have been unable,
as vet. to discover. the names of our sub
scribers were secured throughout the state,
and nearly every one of them received copy
of Judge Illness letter Inasmuch as he and
Watson have been friends for twenty years,
and inasmuch as he was the Populist candi-
date for Governor in 1894. our subscribers
thought that the Judges letter was being sent
70 them with Watson's knowledge and that
they were to take it as an indication that he
favored Smith. Our subscribers couldn't BE-
Ieve that Judge Hines would make such use
Of Watson's name without the latters corr
sent.
The sending out of the letter was nicely
timed to prevent Watson from getting hold
of copy and repudiating the letter before
election.
The trick worked successfully. The refer
ence to Watsons attitude, and the signii-
canoe claimed for it, had the desired effect.
Thousands of Watson's friends, who had not
intended doing so. voted for Hoke Smith be-
cause of that letter.
The truth is, Watson knew nothing of the
letter. and would have promptly condemned
it, had it come to his knowledge. Was it
right for Judge Hines to collude with Hoke
Smith and deceive Watson's friends in that
way? Is nomination, obtained by such art
full practices of two lawyers, binding on any
body's conscience? Do men who conspire to
deceive the people by such devices think that
the state of Georgia has no sense of right
and no memory of wrong?
If there were nothing elese that released
the people from supporting the gubernatorial
nominee at this time, the deliberate fraud
practiced upon the friends of Watson, just
before the election would be quite sufficient
Ham Patterson, of Tennessee, believed that
he could defy public opinion: he soon knew
better.
Joe Sibey, of Pennsylvania, believed that
he could contemptuously disregard public
Aldrch, Cannon, and Taft thought that
they could bully or wheedle the great Ameri-
