SAYS BRYAN HURTS
WILSON IN GEORGIA

Thomas B. Fielder, the well known
Atlanta attorney, in an interview
published in The Washington Post.
declares that Georgia would go for
Oscar Underwood by 100. 600. instead
OF $4,000, if the race between Under
wood and Wilson should be run again
today
Mr.. Fielder says the great increase
in Underwood's majority would be
brought about because President
Wilson made William Jennings BRYAN
i member of his Cabinet, which Is
offensive to Georgia.
He also declares that the Republi-
can party might easily carry Geor-
gta, if it changed its name.
Mr. Folders interview is as fol-
lows:
1T was the Secretary of State. I
believe, who said that Georgia was
setting few of the rich Federal
plums, and gave as a reason that the
State was reaCtionary.
We'll, Georgia is a conservative
state, If that is what the Secretary
Of State means by reactionary. 1t
has never been Bryan State, and
never will be. Os car Underwood de-
Ieated Governor Wilson in the presi-
Dental primaries by $4,000. and if the
tOHltSl were 10 De neI0 again, the
majority leader of the House would
beat Mr. Wilson by 100000 for the
reason that he put Bryan in his Cab
met.
Georgia, | say, is a conservative
State. We believe in protection, not
in prohibitive duties, mind you. but
in protection of legitimate industries
Inc farmers are prosperous. and
think that we should let well-enough
alone. A majority of the farmers, /
believe, have automobiles which
shows that they are not in distress.
Sometimes | think that if the Re
publican party had any other name
than Republican il would carry
Georgia in the elections, because the
voters are not radicals. They do be-
lieve in progressive measures, but
not in radical measures.
Il am not i'm sympathy with many
of the measures advocated by the
Democratic leaders. | believe if the
country is to he saved it will be up
to oscar Underwood and Champ
Clark to save it,"

BACON MAY Be
FORCED AGAIN
BEFORE PEOPLE
Feared Amendment Providing for
Popular Election of Senators
Will Void Primary.

viii United States Senator A. O..
Bacon, of Georgia, have to go be-
fore the people and ask reelection
at their hands before he can aualify
as a Senator for fourth full term.
now that the Federal amendment pro-
viding for the popular election Of
senators has been ratified by the
requisite number of States?
Three fourths of the States hay-
ing ratified the amendment. all that
is necessary to make it Immediately
effective is the Presidents proclama-
ton declaring it so. That may come
at any moment.
After the proclamation has been
egally effected, all Senators in Con-
gress must be elected by the people
and not by the State Legislatures.
Senator Bacon has been nominated
for A fourth term, in a Democrats
primary, and would be elected to an
other term by the Legislature in
June, provided the Legislature were
authorized under the Constitution to
proceed with his election.
Serving Under Appointment.
He is serving now under a vaca-
ton appointment. made by Governor
Brown last February. which holds
only until the next Legislature is as
sembled.
II the Senator were named by the
Legislature in June, there is a DOUBT
in many legal minds whether the
Senate would recognize his creden-
tails as sufficient.
The Federal amendment does not
affect the term of any Senator wno
may have been elected prior to its
ratification. but who may not have
been sworn in. As applied to al
others, however. its operation VIII
be immediate, following the executive
proclamation.
Senator Bacon has not in any sense
Of the word yet been elected to the
Senate to succeed himself. He could
not be legally elected. had the Federal
amendment remained unratifed, be
fore the organization of the General
Assembly next summer.
Lawyers Foresee Election.
There is a deepening impression
among lawyers that Senator Bacon, in
the event President Wilson proClaims
the popular election amendment rati-
fed, will have 10 go before the peo-
pie in order to secure proper author
ity to sit in the Senate hereafter as
4 representative from Georgia.
In the last primary, Senator b.
con was vigorously opposed by Col.
n. II. Perry, Of Gainesville. and it
may he that Colonel Perry would
undertake again 10 defeat the Sena-
tor in a special election. It might be,
too, that others would get into the
race.
In any event. it looks as if il will

Brown or Governor Slaton to cal

The barber shop owners today are

of their meeting last night with the
union journeymen BARRIERS. which for

encounter, and are now more deter
mined than ever not to give in to the
demands made by the union men.
The journeymen, on the other hand,
have become impatient at the man.
ner in which the bosses have been
putting them Off and are just as de-
termined as the shop owners to win
out in the struggle.
Most of the journeymen were in.
favor of calling a strike today as soon
as they heard of the result of last
nights meeting with the boss BARRIERS,
but cooler heads prevailed and definite
action on the matter of calling a strike
was postponed until after the meet
ing of the Common Council Friday
night, when an effort will be made to
have a bill introduced on the floor of
the council prohibiting the opening of
barber shops on Sunday within the city
limits.
The bosses also will attend the
meeting of the Council and will be-
represented by counsel who will use
every effort to block the introduce
ton of the Sunday closing bill called
for in the petition which the Journey
men viii present.
If the Council decides unfavorably
to the union men the matter will be
further considered at a special secret
meeting of the union next Tuesday
night.
Bulletins are being prepared which
will be sent to every boss barber in
the city, hurting a def at them and
a general strike of the
union BARRIERS If some satisfactory
agreement is not reached before the
journeymen go into secret session
Tuesday night.
The bulletins will be issued ire
spective of the action of the Common
Council Friday night, but If the alder
men act favorably to the union men
it will make their def, they say, all
the more powerful.
The meeting last night was an I'M
satisfactory one to both sides, as no
agreement of any kind was reached.
The sessions resolved itself into
battle of personalities before it was
half over and several times only the
of the more conservative
bosses prevented a general fight.
Many of the shop owners left the
session before it was over having
had premonition of brewing trou-
BILE. Instead of bringing the owners
and employees nearer together it
acted to enlarge the breach between
them and the meeting broke up with
both sides at daggers points.
The BARRIERS claim that they can
tie up rs per cent. of the shops in
the city by calling general strike
and so cripple the others that they
will be obliged to close up also. They
do not want to call a strike they
claim. but the bosses are forcing it
and every journeyman is prepared to
walk out Wednesday morning IL the
strike vote is passed.
