HARRIS TIDE is
STILL Rising
POLITICAL FORECAST FROM HAIR
HIS HEADQUARTERS ALL VERY
ENCOURAGING.

Atlanta, Aug. 29.-With voters in ev-
cry county where he has spoken as
surfing him of support, with letters
from all over Georgia telling him his
strength is growing greater every day,
Governor Nat e. Harris feels more
confident than ever that the will win
his second term by a majority which
will eliminate any fight in the cOnven-
ton. The Harris tide is still rising, to
Judge from these messages, and will
keep on rising until the votes are
cast on September u.
Governor Harris is completing two
weeks speaking tour covering many
counties, with speeches five and six
times a day He will continue his cam
paign all next week.
The Governors addresses have been
pronounced vote getters" wherever
it has appeared. He has discussed the
prohibition question forcefully, declar-
ing he included prohibition in the eX-
ira session call because he knew the
great mass of Georgia people demand
ed It, and he put it in the call in
spite of assurance by its opponents
that if he would leave it out he would
have a second term without opposition
He has discussed the pardoning pow
with equal frankness, declaring that
no man sentenced for defending the
purity of his home would be kept be-
hind the bars
In replying to Mr.. Dorsey's criti-
cism of the Governors veto of the
double primary bill, Governor Harris
said no candidate who did not have an
extremely wealthy interest backing
him could afford the enormous expense
of a second race, and perhaps the fact
that the bill was written in the Of
fee of the Dorsey law firm, counsel
for the Louisville & Nashville rail
read, might explain why he was so anX-
iouS to have it passed.

little trimming on them. AS many

Small hats are enjoying great pop

considered especially smart. When
hats are not small they are very
large and many of them 'are oddly

popular. They are trimmed with os-
