FIELDER AND 7
WILL DEFEAT
SLATON
So Says Hardwick in Card Which Sla-
ton AnSwerS-PTesent Governor
Popular Choice of the Voters.

EAlldllJds NId., AuS. SOl4 . OoA44elAA
Hardwick's arrogant assumption that
he owns the democracy of Georgia and
that Fielder and myself" will run the
Macon convention, is causing more
amusement than indignation among
friends of Governor Slaton, as they
feel positive that the governor, who
easily led in the vote of the people,
will be given the nomination to which
he is entitled.
Mr.. Hardwick's card yesterday reek-
ed with illogical conclusions, according
to those who have studied it without
bias. He endeavors to show that be-
cause he and Fielder got more votes
than Slaton, the majority is against
Slaton. He continually refers to Fal-
der and T. in a way which bears out
Governor Stations prediction charge
that they had formed firm" to de-
feat him.
There is a general feeling that
Hardwick and Fielder will form some
kind of an amalgamation or trade at
Macon which would give one of them
the office, if the delegates would per-
nit themselves to be traded about
| like chattels, but there is also a be-
lief that Hardwicks inordinate greed
will not permit him to abandon the
senatorship, and they doubt what he
can offer Fielder for that gentleman's
delegates, conceding that he could
deliver the goods he sells.
Governor Slaton issued today a
pungent statement as to the situation.
He said:
will not permit misleading state
ments made by Mr.. Hardwick. If /
am elected Senator, there will be no
election for Governor, but the Presi-
dent of the Senate will act until the
legislature meets.
If he were elected Senator, he
must resign as congressman, and an
election must be ordered. His choice
would require an extra election, mine
would not.
Mr.. Hardwtck expects no comfort
from an organization by true Pro-
gressives. They favored the present
parcel post and currency legislation.
He opposed them. His progressive
ness is in name only. No administra-
ton has been more progressive or con-
structive than mine. Mr. Hardwick
went through with the mimic per
Torrance of accepting the nomination
OF senator IN speech at the hlmtall
House on election night Either the
performance was ridiculous or he
treated Mr.. Fielder and his followers
as chattels, to be controlled as his
slaves.
One hundred and one counties say
they do not want Mr.. Hardwick for
Senator. One hundred and thirty-one
counties out of 14S say that they want
me either as first choice or seccnd
choice.
Mr.. Hutchens, Mr.. Cooper an my
self receive the popular majority of
all the votes cast. A senator from
Georgia should represent al Georgia
without regard to factions, just as l
have conducted the Governors office.

convention. If necessary, I shall call
