THE eJEFFERSONTAN

again attack the County-unit plan, but would
respect the peoples verdict as delivered at
the polls in 1908.
Smith did not fool me in the feast; and I
told my friend Brown-who was ardently
supporting Smith-that no man on earth
could trust Smith; and that he. Brown. would
find it out, in due time
But [ added that Smith would certainly
have sense enough to let the County-unit plan
alone, after he had felt its strength, as he had
done l91 1908.
1t seemed to me that any man of ordinary
intelligence would see the folly Of again at
lacking the country counties, and t1yinq to
rob them Of political rights achicA hey peaco-
fully enjoyed for 80 yeor8.
| knew that Hole Smith was an ovelrated
saWdust bag; but / did think he had sense
enough to know stone-wall, when he had
once butted his thick head against it.
1t never occurred to me that he would be
conceited enough, and stupid enough. to butt
the same head against the same wall, tacicc.
Therefore, as | had promised j. j. Brown,
James X. Vardaman, and many others, to
Glands off, in 1910, kept my word, in spite
of the asinine "break" that Smith made in
attacking me at the eleventh hour Of the
campaign.
The attack was ignored.
The James K. Hines letter perfdiously de
ceived my friends, without my knowing that
a man for whom we old Pops had done so
much was betraying us to the Atlanta Journal
crowd.
The candidacy of Mr. Walker drew off
from us few thousand votes.
The complicated pro-rata rules which the
Hewlette- Hall Committee laboriously framed
God knows why! confused our people, and
lost us many vote.

''come back" rested upom the narroao margin
OF 1000 Uotes
This 'close call'' taught him nothing.
This purely accidental victory carried no
warning.
His monumental conceit blinded him to the
facts; and all of the malice, the vindictive-
ness, the Judas traits of his nature, mhich he
had held IN ohech for t1co gears, broke out
with redoubled violence.
Because he had been compelled to wear the
mask of meek hypocricy, his arrogance at
last was all the more naughty and intolerant.
The $4,000 Joe Brown Democrats had no
rights: Smith rode over them like regular
Carpet-bag Gar.
The Convention was denied the right to
offer an amendment to the platform, or to
debate any question whatever unless Reub
Arnold, the Chairman, consented.
The Smith delegates from the country
counties were made to strike down their own
Countymit plan, acithout hnoeoing achot
they a0e1'e doing.
Not until after the Convention adjourned,
did those Smith delegates realize how Smith
had misused their blind confidence in him.
Then Smith followed up his intoxicated
arrogance by sending the atlanta Journal
gang, HEADED BY SMITHS CAN-
PAIGN MANAGER, II. Y. NcCORD, to
cooperate with Hardwick and the Sheriff of
Washington County, to 6reoh up the naagnif-

TO COMMIT MURDER?
If cowardly assassination was not Hard
wlck's purpose, what 1coS his purpose that
night?
Only two or three men recognized him,
and | had no idea that the dissipated little
creature, desperate from tile exposure Of his
rlccs, would come into a hall which [ had
hired
He was wearing Hoke Smiths collar then:
he is wearing it, n0ac.
NTbo,, no climb info +Lo ~. H.
night of Sept. 2 1910, he was co-consprator
with Hoke Smith, eager to do dirty work for
the man whose collar he wears
When he attacked the Parcels Post at the
bidding of the Express Companies, he was
obeying the commands of his owners-Smith
and the corporations.
When he assaulted the County-unit plan,
In all the early speeches of this campaign he
was doing what his Boss had ordered him
to do
Georgians! Stand by your County-unit
plan!
Don't let the political desperadoes, Smith
and Hardwick, put the Big Cities in control
over you.
Don't give the educated Negro the chance
to register and establish Negro Domination.
M1INTAIN WHITE SUPRENACY!
And the bedrock of White Supremacy in
Georgia is
The County-Hnit system.
Your Uncle T. e. W. has no axe to grind,
is not candidate and is not asking anything
for himself.
His only purpose is, to serve the great mass
Of the common people, who have so often been
deceived, cheated chained. or made the foot
ball of greedy ofice-seekers
When | supported Smith in 1906, my object
was to disfranchise the Negro, and give white
men the privilege to differ among themselves,
without fearing that the Negro vote would
umpire the dispute.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1914-08-13

less HarGHvVick.

Ibis year, we didn't seem to be able to pre-
vail on him to leave Washington.
Goliath suddenly grew timid, and fond of
staying inside the bomb-proof
If the superior population of the big cities
could rule the country counties Gas they could
and would do if the county-unit system were
abolished,) the State-acide prohibition lar
could. be REPEALED; the educated negroes of the
city could register, and kill that number of
qohlte 0oteS an the country, and thus the buga-
boo of NEGRO DONINATION NIGHT
BECOME AN ACTUAL FACT.
Why did President Wilson, W. j. Bryan
ana other Democratic leaders surrender to the
negro leaders in the campaign of 1912?
They confess the surrender, and are putting
negroes in office, over white men and women,
as a consequence of the secret surrender
Why qcoS the surrender considered 71eces-
s0ry?
Because in Ohio, Illinois, Pennsylvania,
New Jersey and New York, where they 90 by
the popular vote plan, instead of the couatq-
ot1alt plan, the negro vote of the big cities IS
the balance Of p0aoer.
The negro leaders are organized and they
maintain headquarters in Washington City.
They can throw the negro vote either way
Republican, or Democratic
Therefore, In each campaign they get up
on the political auction block and offer them
selves for sale.
How much will the Republicans bid for the
negro vote?
How much will the Democrats bid?
The highest bid having been received, the
auction closes; and the head leaders in Wash
lngton send out their orders to the negro
leaders of the States.
The Democratic leaders bought these negro
leaders, in 1912, and you are m0a0 paying the
price.
The Carpet baggers of Reconstruction
times did no worse than to put negroes in
office, over the whites.
We got our County unit plan by the Con
stitution of 1877. Sdw of the biggest counties
were given three times as much political
power, apiece, as any small county was to
have
Twenty-six of the next largest counties
we're to have, apiece, twice as much power as
any small county should have But after
these 80 counties had been given that advant-
age, all the other counties should be equal.
THAT'S THE COUNTY-UNIT PLAN.
It is ours by law. It was given to us by
our wisest w-makers, who made us new
Constitution to take the place of the one
which the Carpet-baggers and the Negroes
had put on us In 1868.
Under that new Constitution of 1877, the
country counties had enjoyed the County-unit

ENFORCEMENT SHERIFF
ANNOUNCES CANDIDACY

Sheriff Wilbur C.. Oliver Sagadahoc
county, issued Thursday in the Bath
Times the following letter Of State
wide interest, announcing his candi-
dacy for Republican nomination for
sheriff:
To the Voters of Sagadahoc:
1t is my intention to be a candidate
for the nomination for sheriff Of this
county, on the Republican ticket at
the coming primary election, and IL
nominated l desire to have, and feel
that / am entitled to the support at
the polls not only of all Republicans,
but of all who believe in the enforce
ment of law.
When the office of sheriff became
vacant we had a Governor who real
ly wanted the law enforced and he
offered me the office with the knowl-
edge and upon the understanding that
if appointed / would faithfully and
without fear or favor carry out MS
policy. and which I had stated was
my policy also.
have now been sheriff for 10
months and / can honestly say that
the law has been effectually enforced
in this country, and without partiality
or favoritism.
In doing this / have spent my own
money freely, without regard to
whether it would be repaid or not.
The number Of cases of drunkenness
brought before the Bath municipal
court from May to Dec. 81, 1913, was
81, as against 149 for the same period
in 1912, decrease of SO per cent;
and this result has been accomplished
against the steady opposition of some
of our county officials. If you Will
elect county officers whose first Ell
fort will be to perform their official
duties, instead of using their offices
for political purposes, the result will
show still more strongly the DEMENT'S
of a vigorous enforcement policy.
1t is the province of the people to
make the laws, and / believe In
thorough and impartial enforcement
of all laws While 1 am sheriff, dur
ing my present term, or IL elected Tor
the ensuing term, I shall continue to
enforce, to the best Of my ability, all
the laws on the statute books. Moth
ing different need be expected. There
will be no relaxation Of effort at any
