as good as those of any Democrat in
Georgia. He and Judge George Hill
yer of Atlanta have probably voted
in more presidential elections than
and other men in Georgia, and both
have always voted the Democratic
ticket. They were raised together
as boys. Captain Cobb is eighty-one
and Judge Hillyer is about eighty
six years of age. In addition to the
Democratic convention in Baltimore,
Captain Cobb has been a delegate
from Georgia to several others. His
right to express party opinion will
not be questioned by any Democrat
in Georgia-not even, probably, by
any of the members of the sub-com-
mlttee of the Democratic state exec
utive committee.
1T is an outrage" said he, in his
vigorous, plain-spoken manner, dis
cussing with The Journal correspon-
dent the action of the sub-commit-
tee in ruling that the name of Her
bert Hoover shall not be placed upon
the ballot of the preferential primary.
Il reckon I have right to call
myself Democrat. | consider that
| am as good a Democrat as any
member of the subcommittee l be-
heye | know what it takes to make a
Democrat. And | believe my opinion

my opinion, whether it be worth as
much as theirs or not
Hoover a Democrat"
MY opinion is that Herbert Hoov-
er Is a Democrat. 1t doesn't make
any difference whether he calls him.
self one or not. His principles are
the thing that count with me. He
acts like a Democrat, he talks like a
Democrat. His public utterances
constitute a good, ringing declara-
ton of Democratic principles-real
democracy, | am talking about, not
mere partisanship.
MY opinion is, further, that Her.
bert Hoover is the man for US to
nominate if we want to win. Wood,
II seems, is going to be the Republi-
can nominee. A good many ex-serv-
ice men, | am afraid, are going to
vote for him. We have got to run a
man who will more than break even
with the Republicans when it comes
to the independent vote. Can Palm
er do it? Can MeAdoo do it? With
all due respect to those gentlemen,
doubt if they can. But Hoover can,
and everybody in the country says
\ can. Even the ones who are op.
posing him, mainly on partisan
grounds, are willing to admit that.
If / want to cast my ballot for
Hoover in the preferential primary
who is authorized to tell me that !
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1920-03-07

shall not do it? The subcommittee
are not authorized to tell me that
They were appointed with authority
to look after the details of printing
and distributing the ballots, counting
the votes, aecIarlng the result, etc
Where do they get their authority Il
say | shall not vote for this or that
man if | want to?"
The preamble of the petition put
in circulation here was drawn by
Crawford Wheatley, prominen;
Americas banker, formerly a mem
Der of the house from Sumter county
and formerly a state senator and
president of the senate, also a dele
gate to a number of Democratic ma
tional conventions. 1t is a ringing
protest against the action of the sub
committee, to-wit:
Here follows the text of the petit
ton as heretofore published here.)
The thing for Georgia Democrats
to do, remarked Captain Cobb, in
connection with the petition, is to
get up petitions all over the state
and send them to the subcommittee.
1t will be recalled that Judge An
drew ]. Cobb, of Athens, brother of
Captain Cobb and himself a distin-
guished Democrat, as well as one Of
the eminent jurists of Georgia, is at
the head of similar petition started
in Athens and given wide circula-
ton.
Crawford Wheatley had just put
the petition in circulation here when
this dispatch was written. Besides
the names of Captain Cobb and him
self, and others, who headed the list,
another very outspoken signer was
G. L. Williams, prominent mer-
chant and member of the Americas
board of education.
The subcommittee see to regard
themselves as the MASTERS of the
Democrats of Georgia in this primary,
instead of the SERVANTS of the
party" said he. "Their action is the
most high-handed piece of political
arrogance | ever head of Aren't we
able to make our own selection?
Wasn't the primary ordered for the
purpose of giving the people a free
expression? If we are shut out, dis
franchised, denied the right of vot-
ing, haven't the subcommittee just
as much right to shut out anybody
else?
Speaking for myself personally, I
would like to put on good heavy
pair of boots and kick that sub-com-
mittee clean out of their job. That S
just the way l feel about it. If they
are going to be allowed to hand-pick
our candidates for US, what is the use
of having any primary at all?"
County Primary Over.
Now that the county. primary is
over, the election having been held
last Wednesday, it is expected that
presidential politics will take on re-
newed interest throughout the coun-
ty, not only in Americas but in
Plains and Leslie, two other towns in
The county.
There were several hotiy contest
ed races in the county primary and
