THE JEFFERSONIAN

A1luAoW OdIH0g1e, JOnn ~. hOcKeteIler, and
John Wanamaker. 1t was reported that your
man Smith had given $500 to the support
OF the higher education of the negro. As
member of Clevelands Cabinet, your man
Smith had been most liberal to the negro
otfice-seekers, and had given to many of them,
lucrative employment in the Department of
the Interior.
He had resigned from the cabinet for reas-
ons that have never been made known. It was
broadly limited that your man Smith had con-
Quoted himself with such brazen immortality.
that even Cleveland could not stand for it.
BE that as it may, he was in bad odor
throughout the country, and was considered a
back number
After Pope Brown had been in the race for
several weeks the Atlanta Constitution got
after him about his record on the Railroad
Commission. Pope also crisscrossed himself
In some interviews in regard to the primary
system, as practised in South Carolina and
Florida.
Hardwick happened along soon afterwards,
and IN a conversation with him about the cam
paign, remarked that it would be much bet
ter for us if Pope Brown would stay out of
the newspapers and not back and fall on pub
lie questions.
Hardwick took advantage of this casual
remark to force Pope Brown out of the run
ming. He went to Atlanta and told Pope that
I wanted him to retire in favor of Hoke
Smith,
Instead Of telephoning, telegraphing or
writing me, Pope accepted Hardwicl's false
hood as the truth and Immediately announced
his withdrawal from the contest-his with
drawal being in favor of Smith
Never was more dumbfounded
[ at first wrote to John Temple Graves and
to Hardwick, that I could not support your
man Smith.
Hardwick came rushing over to Thomson,
and began to persuade me to acquiesce in the
change that had been made without nv
knowledge and consent. He pretended to
have believed that what had said about Pope
and the newspaper reporters meant that [
wanted Pope to get out of the race. His
argument to me was, that Smith had got on
the platform which Pope Brown and I had
constructed, and that [ ought to support my
own platform, no matter who had got on it. I
told Hardwick that Smith had been reported
as having made in Augusta, during the cam
paign of 1904, a speech in which he violently
assailed my integrity, accusing me of having
sold out to the Republicans. Hardwick
vowed he had never heard of such a speech,
and was sure Smith had never made it.
told HardWick that it was generally
believed that Smith had made such a speech,
and Smith would have to disclaim having
made it, before I would even think of sup
porting him.
Hardwick fastened to say that Smith would
sign any sort of disclaimer that would write
out.
He said that the Journal would publish, on
the editorial page, any required testimonial to
my integrity, personal and political.
| told him [ didn't care to write it.
He then said he would write # and have II
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1912-06-06

Smith wrote me private letter of the most
preparatory character. denying positively
that he had ever assailed me in the manner
herein stated.
In reply [ told him the alleged speech had
beermade in public, and the disclaimer should
be given the same publicity.
In another letter he conceded this, and said
he would come down into the Tenth district
and make the disclaimer in a public address.
Accordingly, he made a speech at Warren
ton, soon afterwards, and he himself mailed
me marked copy.
At that time Jesse Ward of Townsville.
and other leading Populists all over the State
had not taken sides in the contest between
your man Smith and Clark Howell; they were
waiting to see which candidate [ would urge
them to support
1t was to Jesse Ward that [ wrote the first
message in favor Of your man Smith.
1t was not until after the great meeting at
Thomson, where I made the speech which the
Journal carried in full, that the $4,000 Popu-
lists OF Georgia began to turn to Smith
During the whole of that campaign. there
was nothing too good that you could say abouts
me-
was all right, in every respect
It was not until after the election that I
became bad man again-a man who, accord
ing to your editorials, had really not been
necessary to Smiths triumph, and who,
according to Smiths manager, Mr.. Anderson,
had probably influenced the results in two or
three counties.
[ have never said wrote the Macon plat
form, which was formulated after Smiths
victory.
The platform which Pope Brown and I
agreed on, and which was adopted by your
man Smith, led him to unparalleled success.
He was as much surprised at the strength
OF that platform, as were the men who went
up against it.
The platform which your man Smith had
adopted IN Macon, was an unwise and dis
honest production
It was unwise in that it pledged Smith to
do so many things he could not possibly
accomplish.
County Unit plan which had not even been
mentioned In the literature or the speech
making of the compaign.
1t robbed the country counties of their con-
stitutional rights, which they had enjoyed for
thirty years, and it led to Smiths crushing
defeat in 1905
During the campaign of 1910, he secured
the support Of tens of thousands of Popu-
lists, by telling them he would never again
attack the County Unit plan.
One of these leading Populists who was
thus lulled into security was J. j. Brown,
whom we are going to make Commissioner of
Agriculture.
Your man Smith sent my friend j. J..
Brown to Thomson, in the summer Of 1910,
to tell me Of Smiths positive pledges to let
the County Unit plan alone
told Mr.. Brown that nobody could believe
Smith, but I supposed he would have sense
enough not to attack the County Unit system

Mr.. WatSOn'S Statement i'm Re-
gard TO Charges Against Him.
Thomson, Ga, June End, 1912.

thomson, Ca, June End, 1912.
To The Georgian,
Atlanta, Ga.
n compliance with my promise made to YOU
some days ago; have been notified over
the telephone from the United States Mar
shals office in Macon, that I will be arrested
tomorrow at noon. [ have not seen the war
rant and do not know what crime is laid at
my door.
According to the Northern newspapers, the
prosecution is Instituted by President Taft
and the Roman Catholic Hierarchy, because
of an Editorial in The Weekly Jefersonian
on the tragic death of Major Butt.
The President was accused by me with
being responsible for Archie Butts untimely
end, because he, Mr.. Taft, the Commander
in-Chief of the United States Army, had
ordered Major Butt on treasonous mis-
sion to the aged Italian gentleman who is
called the Pope
Col. George Harvey in Harpers Weekly,
criticised President Taft for his private mes
! sage to the Pope, and was quite as severe in
his language as [ was in mine.
Col. Harvey based his structures upon
cabegram which the Marconi News Agency
had sent out from Rome, at the time Major
Butt arrived there and was presented to the
Pope.
AL Che press dlSpatCneS carried the story,
and the President put forth no denial
Every one of my Roman Catholic exchanges
carried the news, and exultingly commented
upon it.
President Taft never did deny it, until
after Major Butts death, and after other
papers besides my own were using the Incl
dent to his hurt.
Why should [ be singled out for punish
ment, when Col. Harvey is so much nearer to
Washington?
Another story is, that I am being prose
cuted for having sent obscene literature
through the mails
1t is charged that some Latin quotations in
the May number of my Magazine are
obscene.
If so, why did not the government prose
cute the publishers of the book from which I
quoted?
I had alright to assume that what the gov
eminent had tolerated in the publishers Of
that book, it would tolerate in anyone, who,
with an honest, patriotic purpose, quoted from
that book
Every citizen has the right to take it for
granted that whatever books, magazines and
papers are allowed to be handled by news
dealers, booksellers and others, are legitimate
publications and can be legally used, in whole
or in part.
Ny motive in quoting from the book was
patriotic and educational

press my ideas on the comparative merit
Of the pitching stats OF the two, clubs.
and have Bttlo, to say about the re-
spective ability OF the two leaders.
HanI<s Disappoinfment.
] promised last week TO. review briefly
the American League race with an idea
of showing why some clubs improved
while others fell back, Perhaps the big
gest disappointment of the race was the
New York team. which started out with
bright prospects and the correspondents
gossiping about II being pennant possi-
bility. and II now looks as IL II were GO
ing to finish In seventh place. after the
ST. Louis Browns have given It a des-
greatest surprise of the race was the
Washington team.
The wonderful form shown by the lat
ter club was due largely to the leader
ship of Griffith. supplemented by the
marvellous pitching OF Walter johnson.
For seasons. the Washington team has
been clubbing along with a lot of old tall
ent and a prayer. and that is about all.
Griflth started by clearing house. and
he swept out much of this waste which
had been losing ball games and put FIVE
new men regularly in his lineup. He
held these five there Until he got La
porte from St Louis. and he placed that
young man at second base instead Of
Morgan. Next 'Griff'' instilled the idea
that team work has a large value into
his men. and the club was displaying the
best cooperative ability of any in the
league in the middle of the season. II
was winning its games on team play.
Grifith has a magnetic attraction
which holds his men at work. and they
became imbued with the idea that they
could win games after their streak on
that now famous trip West when the
club did not drop d contest. That did
more for the team than anything else.
for II gave the players confidence in
Griffith's other pitchers be-
sides Johnson began to show grand form.
and the club continued TO win. Lately
II has not been playing such good ball.
but II ought to finish third anyway.
which Is a record for Washington
team. and Griffith should get the credit
