his favor; they announce Irregular
ties in Barlow county, but fail to
state that such irregularities were
brought about on motion of Mr..
Hardwick's local manager or that
there was no charge of fraud in this

is unembarrassed by a single prom

and file of Georgia voters who were
divided as between Walker and Hol-
der but who were as one on the is
sues involved in the campaign are
now supporting Walker.
Among the assurances already re-
ceived from prominent friends of Mr..
Holder the list is headed by Hon. Gar
land M. Jones, who was Mr.. Holders
campaign manager, Mr.. Jones having
written Mr.. Walker rendering him
his hearty support in the campaign.
I'm addition to this similar assur-
ances of support have been receiv-
ed from eX-Speaker w. H. Burwell,
who was one of Holders strongest
supporters also Senator Farmer Bar

brother-in-law of Mr.. Holder and
Mr.. H. H Williamson of Jefferson,
business manager Of the jackson Her

Desperate at the prospect of GER
tain defeat the headquarters of ex-
Senator Hardwick are endeavoring to
becloud the real issues of the race:
They announce that on a recount of
the votes in Ware county Mr.. Hard
wick received additional votes when
in fact there was no recount. The
same statement was made as to De-
catur county when the fact is there
was no recount. They appeal for
sympathy on account of the contest
in Decatur county but they fail to
advise the people that there was not
even charge of fraud, that their
local friends gave up the contest
as hopeless and that Mr.. Hardwick

WALKER'SLETTER
TO HARDWICK;
DECLINES DEBATE

Clifford Walker, candidate fol-
governor, refuses to meet Thos. W.
Hardwick in joint debate. Mr.. Walk
er gives his reasons for the refusal
in the following letter to the general
public:
ATLANTA, Ca, Sept. 10, 1920
"Hon. Thomas W. Hardwick, klmball
House, Atlanta, Ga.
Dear Sir: / acknowledge receipt
of your letter of the 10th instant
suggesting joint discussion of is
sues.
81 thoroughly agree with Hon. H.
NJ Mcintosh, the distinguished editor
of the Albany Herald, who in that
paper says:
These political joint debates new
er do the candidates or communi-
ties in which they are held any good.
They change the opinion of few if
any voters and only serve to accen-
tuate differences and stir up bad feel
ing between partisans. If we had to
choose between dog fight and a
political joint debate between rival
candidates as crowd-gatherer for
our home town, we believe we'd take
the dog fight
"Such discussions add neither dig
nifty nor profit to political campaigns.
Intended as a gentlemanly debate,
they do often descend to the low
plane of the dog fight / am unwil-
ling to participate in such an exhibit
ton. The people do not want one
now, if ever. They are busy market
ing their crops. Respecting them my
plans have been made and are to re-
frain for any further general speak
ing campaign.
''The issues have already been thor
oughly discussed in practically every
county in the state, more thoroughly
than in any campaign within my
memory. Your pubic record and
mine are based almost entirely upon
official printed reporCs familiar to
all-yours in the Congressional Rec
! ord, mine in bound volumes of opin-
ions and in annual reports 10 the Leg
islature filed in the executive office.
The passage of time may have Gevel-
oped in them some mistakes, but you
will not find one instance in winch
there WAS an Intentional failure to
of the state. You may feel at liberty
to discuss my record anywhere as
have discussed yours.

"This is no time for passion OF
partisan feeling. What this country
needs is calm and cool delibera-
ton of the vital questions and dan
gers confronting US. For such a con-
sideration 1 appeal and By the yer.
dict so made | shall gladly abide.

The statement given out by Mr.

pie OF all classes and all sections.
Mr.. Walker will in the future nav
no attention to such charges. The
foregoing instances serving to warn
his friends Of the unreIiability of such
reports. He will maintain his policy
of sticking to the main issue in this
raee-Hardwlckism, which deceived
the Endorsement of a majority of
votes in only forty-eight counties
while Mr.. Walker received a major

Hardwick leading Mr.. Walker in pop
