WATSON POWER IN POLITICS
RECENT ELECTION EMPHASIZED
HIS STRENGTH IN GEORGIA.
Many Believe He Has UnquestiOned
Right to Be Included in States
Delegation to Baltimore.


ATLANTA.-Now that the smoke
of battle has cleared away and the
Underwood victory stands out plain
many interesting facts have come to
light in connection with the result.
Chief among these are the figures
which apparently indicate beyond
question that Hon. Thos. E. Watson S
oId-time populist following swung
solidly into line behind him backing
him in his fight for Underwood, help
ing carry the state for the house
leader and re-establishing Mr.. Wat
son as a strong political factor in
Georgia.
On no other hypothesis can politi-
slams here explain the fact that such
counties as Ebert and Greene,
which have been solidly in the Hoke
Smith column, should have swung
so completely over to the other fac
ton. They believe that Watson's
old followers have spoken. In the
same way they explain the Under
wood strength in the Tenth and
Eighth districts, where Mr.. Watson
has always been strongest.
1t is believed here, that Watson
has the unquestioned right to be
included in the states delegation to
Baltimore, and there are those who
believe that he may become it's dom
mating influence.
