In one of these it has been sought to

against me on the charge that | de-
feated and filibustered against the

House. This is an absolute misrepre-
sentation of my action. The facts are
that before the House Committee
took the position that l thought the
travelling men were entitled to some
relief and when l found the majority
of the Committee were determined to
kill the bill, / offered a substitute in
structing and authorizing the Railroad
Commission on their own motion to
investigate the matter and afford any
needed relief. The bill was killed in
the Committee, and it was owing en-
tirely to my insistence that the Com
mittee reconsidered its action and
adopted the substitute bill 1 offered on
the line mentioned. When this bill
came up in the House, so far from fill

~ in selecting business manager for
the State than you would in selecting
enc for your own affairs?
Judge Harris is an able man, but
he has one serious defect which dis
qualities him from making a good Ex~
ecutive. His general reputation Isl
that he seems to be almost constittl-
tionally incapable of making up his
mind and of taking any positive, de-
cided stand on any question where
feeling or influence is brought Ia
bear on both sides of it. He was an
pointed Judge for short unexpire5
term of the Macon Circuit in 1910. and
it is notorious in Macon and through
out the circuit that by reason of this
defect he made a failure of that posf-
ton to such an extent that he did not
venture to offer for reelection. IF
man cannot nerve himself up to rem
der decisions required of a Judge in
the trial of cases, how can he be ex-.
pected to successfully discharge the
functions of the Chief Executive of the
State.
Although in my opening announce
ment | stated that the prohibition
question as political question ought
to be considered as being settled, and
ought not to be an issue in this cam
paign, yet it has been dragged into it.
The opposition to me has been based
almost entirely on that question.
When l pointed out that both / and
DR.. Hardman had stated to the peo-
pie where we stood on this matter,
but that Judge Harris had not positive
ly defined his position on this or any
other question before the people. and
that some of his friends were telling
the prohibition people that he was a
good prohibitionist, while others were
telling the anti-prohibitionist peopIe,
that they had nothing to fear from
him; what was his answer? He re-
piled by simply quoting the Languages
of my announcement and saying ID
was good enough for him. Has he M
views or convictions of his own on
the question, that he is content t0y
borrow other mems ideas? His added
remark about enforcing the law Is
merely bait to catch votes, for he
knows that the actual enforcement Of
criminal laws is really in the hands
Of petit juries, and that Governor
has no means of influencing the YER
dict of jury. In some of his speeches
he is making the unpatriotic and unfair
argument that ought not to be elected
because I come from Savannah. Peo-
pie who live in glass houses should
not throw stones, and l have yet t0
hear that Macon is so much better
than Savannah in any respect as to
justify any one from Macon in attack
ing Savannah.

State than either Of them can lay claim

have no aspersions to cast on
Judge Harris, and would make no re-
Elections upon him personally. In
what l say Of him l hope l have al
ways confined myself within the
bounds of legitimate criticism. 1t
seems to be conceded that this race
has about narrowed down to a fight
between Judge Nat Harris and myself.
He is basing his campaign almost en-
tirely on sentiment and makes an ap-
peal to your sympathy by saying that
he is too oldvto try again and that this
is your last chance to vote for one
who wore the gray. I was only a
small child in 1865, but no one can
revere the old heroes of the war more
than l. One CT my uncles was a Sec
rotary of War for the Confederacy and
my father and every male member G.
my name and family over fifteen years
of age, served in the armies of t
South. My grandfather, though too
old for service, presented to the Con-
federacy, the horses, arms and equip
ment for a troop of cavalry, and my
people did as much and suffered as
much for it as any other family in the
South. ~s74.- tx-1E&
Sentiment and sympathy, however,
are no grounds on which to select a
business manager. Georgia must so
forward Or she must go backward, and
what Georgia needs and should have at
this time is young, energetic, pro-
gressiye Governor, not a man who
has reached time in life when he is
apt to break physically at any minute.
If you were going to select a mana
ger for your own business, would you
think of selecting an old gentleman
now well into his Goth year, and who
had not been connected with your bus
mess for nearly twenty years, in pref
erence to younger, progressive, ener-
getic man who has been in active work
in your business for the last ten
years, and who has already worked his
way up to the next to the highest posi-
ton in it? Ought you to act different

Townsville, Ga, Aug. 17.-CSpeciaD
Bob Geary held the Hornets down to-
day while the Muckalees were running
I'D half a dozen scores on Merchant.
The game cinched the second half OF
the season for Dave Gaston's crew.
Americas ran bases like big leaguers
and felded in sensational style. A
double and a triple pulled off by the
Americas bunch put the quietus on
~Thomasville's only chances to score.
Merchant was easy and was hit when
hits meant runs.
Here is an account of the game, in
ming by inning:
First Inning.
Americus-Colby first man up, was
out, Chaplain to Davenport. Castor
few out to second and Bowen singled
through the infield. Geary retired the
side with an out, Klump to Davenport.

The post season series between
Americas and brownsville will begin
Wednesday in brownsville. Managers
CASTOR and Dudley came to terms la t
night and Dave wired the Times-Re-
corder the particulars of the arrange
ments for the "World's Series"
Thomasville draws the. Wednesday
and Thursday games. Then the clubs
come to Americas for Friday and Sat
urday. Monday they play in Thomas
vile and Tuesday back to Americas. If
a seventh game is necessary the place
will be decided later.
The first club to win four games will
become the champs of the Georgia
State league and fly the bunting next
season. In case a game is rained out
the clubs will remain in the city where
they scheduled to play when rain
came along and play there the next
day.
The receipts from the games will be
divided the same this season as they
were last year Each club will receive
30 per cent. The players will receive
80 per cent, and the league will get 10
per cent. of the gross receipts. Fifty
cents will be charged for general ad-
mission and passes will be worthless.
Manager CASTOR is ready to open the
series with the Hornets. He and his

Thomasville will have hard scrap On
their hands. Melford Pratt will open
for Americas and will be opposed by
Lefty Roth. Bob Geary will work the
second game and then the Muckalees
will journey home.
Special rates will more than likely
be offered by the railroads during the
series and the fans Of both cities will
take advantage of them. A large num-
Der Of fans will go to Thomasville III
automobiles Wednesday for the open
ing game. Anyone wishing to reserve
a place in one of the cars can do so
by seeing OFT Johnson, who will have
charge of the caravan of rooters. The
games in Thomasville will be called at
8 o'clock, so that Americas fans can
catch the afternoon train back to
Americas.
Townsville is claiming that she
will have an easy time winning from
Americas but Dave and his boys have
another bunch coming their way The
two teams are an evenly matched set

lieve that the Muckalees have the
