They will tell you that buying coV'
to rent to reunion visitors and rent
ing them are different propositions
altogether. Failure to rent cots pur-
chased for that purpose has cost the
neonla Of the city about $4,000,
according to a reunion official who

the visitors.

He figures his loss at not less than
$4,000, as the cots will be practl-
cally of no value after the reunion
Other citizens, hundreds OF them'
who figured that the city would De
overrun with strangers, had thous-
ands of cots to rent, but no one TO
rent them. o
One man who invested $500 in

customers Tuesday night and not one
Wednesday night.
The big loss, however, falls upon
the people who speculated; those
who bought cots by the hundreds and
expected to fill them every night.
Their investments represent some
thing like $250,000, and they Will
get but little of it back.

WATSON WILL Be DELEGATE.
UNDERWOOD SUPPORTERS SAY
HE is ENTITLED TO 1T.
No Doubt That McDuffie Man Will
BE One of -Four Representatives
of the State at Large.

ATLANTA. Calf Hon. Thos. r..
| Watson of Thomson desires to go to
| Baltimore as a member Of the Geor-
gia delega tioon he will receive the
support of the foremost underwood
! leaders for that position.
This feeling upon their part mas
been conveyed to Mr.. Watson, whose
work in the campaign in behalf OF
Mr. Underwood, they consider, en-
titles him tc membership in the del
egation; and there seems to be no
question that he will have their full
backing in the state convention.
A Little Piece of Politics.
There has been a steady and per-
sistent effort made in the Wilson
camps to inject Mr.. Watson as an
apple of discord into the ranks of the
convention.
The attempted breeding of discord
has evidently a sinister political pur-
pose back of 1T, but, say the Under
wood leaders, it will not pan out.
1t now appears that Mr.. Under
woods friends will unquestionably
accept the challenge, and, instead of
permitting Mr.. Watson to be used as
an apple of diScord, will get PACK OF
him and see that he does go to Bal
timore.
What Mr.. Watson Says.
The first indication that Mr.. Wat
son desired to become a delegate to
the national convention came in the
current issue of the Jeffersonian, re-
ceived in Atlanta Thursday. In that
issue Mr.. Watson, under the caption,
meet Me in Atlanta, Boys, says:
"On the night preceding the con-
vention l propose to hold meeting
in the ball room of the Kimball, and
all delegates friendly to me are re-
quested to attend.
1.-THE city politicians who are hog
ging all the credit for the Underwood
victory are counting a fight with me,
and of this fight they can get just as
much as they are looking for.
II mean to head the Georgia dele
cation to Baltimore, or know the
reason why.
81 mean to lock horns with Bryan,
and to exhibit that coldly selfish
fraud in his true character"
