of the order, they fired the first con-
vention bomb of the reform movement

TABLES ARE TURNED

ATLANTA, Ca, Aug. 24.-Hoke
Smith regained the office of governor,
wrested from him two years ago by
Joseph Brown, railroad commission
er, whom he had ousted from that
body.
Although the campaign this year
has been marked by little bitterness
no campaign in Georgia has ever been
fought with more energy. Standing
on a platform of progressive demo
cracy, and fighting for the preserva-
tion of those principles for which he
battled two years ago, Smith rallied
to aid all his followers of the cam
paign and large number of acces-
sions.
Two years ago, when hard times
reigned, when Smith was accused of
aiding in the prohibition fight, when
the railroad men were angry with
him for his hostility to them, and
when personal enemies combined with
circumstances to battle against him.
Smith was beaten by nearly 5000
votes.
/ His opponent was Joe Brown, son
of the man who during the civil war
had served as governor Of Georgia.
Brown had been named member OF
the railroad commission. His course
i was not for the best interests of the
state, according to Smith, who during
his campaign had threatened to oust
1 him il elected
Then came the now famous letter
which Brown sent Smith, and which
Smith returned unopened and then
removed Brown.
Brown ran for governor and was
elected. Now, two years later, Smith
has turned the tables and defeated
the man who beat him. In all the
i large cities where Brown was given
1 overwhelming majorities two years
ago, Smith made his gains this year
