they want to do, and what they are
conspiring to do, but will they dare
to go so far and fling so brazen a
piece Of jobbery in the face of the
people?
Whether they voted for Underwood
or for Wilson, the Democrats of
Georgia should take heed of the
audacious fraud which is about to be
thrust upon them. The interests that
masked behind the Underwood can
didacy have already, if signs mean
anything, thrown aside Thomas e.
Watson, whose support was RESPONSE
BILE for their victory. They have got
out of him all they could and he is
OF no further use to them. Their
next logical step will be to throw
over Underwood himself. This will
be less difficult and a more graceful
task simply for the reason that the
Alabama congressman is not really
in the contest for nomination and
will vanish from the convention as
candidate after preliminary ballot
or two. Their fixed and ultimate de-
sign is to deliver the States conven-
ton vote to some candidate that
Georgia does not believe in and has
not even remotely Endorsed or con-
sidered.
If this we're not their scheme, why
should they be SO chary of the propo-
sltlOn to support Wilson, in the event
a second choice must be declared?
That this is their bounden duty can
not be denied with any sense Of
sincerity. In the presidential pri->

more than many of the present

However, if the Hon. Tom does
succeed in getting to Baltimore, and
the Hon. William Jennings is there
either of which is quite likely: for
Democratic conventions are queer
political mixtures Of late years-we
haven't the slightest doubt that the
show is going to be we'll worth the
price of admission. Seats at the
ringside should begin to sell at once
at premium, while the moving pic
ture privilege alone should pay the

This is a great year in politics,
anyway; and no man can possibly
tell what may happen next. With

man-eating performance; and with
the Democratic party divided into

strenuous and even nauseous times

SO it can't matter much if we turn
