each of these contingent PROPOSE
tons, and, even though be attacked
by those I would protect, I say:
President Wilson has forfeited all
cl i'm to our support by his course
in making the law-abiding men,
women and children Of Georgia his
sacrifice to the Gompers' fedora
tons Minotaur.
Therefore, as Attorney General
Palmer is basing his candidacy upon
an endorsement of all the official
acts of President Wilson, hold that
the Democratic party of Georgia
cannot afford to make him it's choice
in the presidential primary. In
other words, it cannot afford to en-
dorse an administration which has
made itself responsible for fastening
upon our state certain anarchic or
CARNATIONS which have shed the
blood of, ] repeat, not only the men
but also of the very women and chill
dren of Georgia. And, while leaving
all others to determine their moral
responsibility, I will add that 1
would forfeit my self-respect if
did not at all times stand ready to
protect at every hazard against even
the president of the United States,
in his self-chosen alliance with the
forces of anarchy and murder, the
weak and the feeble who are not
only the dearest objects of our de-
vOtion, but are the very wards of
the conscience of the manhood of
our state. Let it never be said then
that the voices Of the blood of Geor-
CLANS are crying from the ground
against us who were recreant to our
duty to protect them.
Now, as to Mr.. Hoover, let me
say: Inasmuch as. since the sub
committee made it's ruling, condi-
lions have been found possible for
the entrance as a candidate of one
who indorses an administration
which has promoted a process of
bloodshed in our state, I cannot see
my way clear to deny to any Dem
ocrat who wishes to vote for the
man who fed the starving people of
Europe, the right to do so. 1t can
at least be said for Mr.. Hoover
that his work was for one of the
noblest objects which can inspire
the practical man, viz: the feeding
of the furnishing whose miseries
were due not to their improvidence
but to the crimes of the wicked.
I concede that this is not exact

ideals. 1t is not dwelling amid cor
uscant clouds, feasting on ambrosia
and slipping nectar: it does not spend
it's days with eyes directed afar try
ing to "catch visions" Nay, it is
a party which stands for principles
drawn from the Ten Commandments,
the Magma Charta and the Declara-
ton of Independence. These are
based upon God-established facts and
immutable rights which hold the
poor man and the rich man on the
same level Of opportunity, obliga-
ton and protection if, and so long
as, both are truthful, honest and
just.
L love the Democratic party. 1t is
the party of my father and of both
my grandfathers. 1t honored my ia
Their in Georgia as it has honored
scarcely another man. 1t has honored
me beyond what l would claim as my
merits. Therefore, by the sacred
bonds of gratitude I am held to the
obligation to protect, to the limit of
my powers and of my natural life,
the fair fame and basic rights of
our party, and with them the in
herent rights of the people of our
state, of which rights the chief is
the right to live, the right to be
protected from anarchy and murder.
If L have appeared to dwell too
long upon certain tragic happenings
in our common country and our
state it is because, in taking issue
with the titular head of our party
and thereby with potent political and
(misguided) moral thought in our
state, it has been incumbent on me
to make sure the fact that L stand
on firm ground.
Those who contest my judgment,
therefore, must prove, first that L
have not given the true record In
Georgia of the Amalgated Assocla-
ton of Street Car Employees, or Of
the unionized textile workers; or,
second, that President Wilson has
not had aught to do with bringing
the said Ama1gamated association
book into Georgia, or has rebuked
Gompers and his labor union asso-
ciates for their acts of violence
against the people of Georgia, in
Guiding as the chief sufferers their
women and children; or, third, that
encouragement or aid to forces OF
anarchy which have been shedding
the blood of people of Georgia, while
condemnable in any other man is
right and highly commendable ii
done by President Woodrow Wilson.
L distinctly assert the negative of

ular" for us to have admitted into
our primary for choosing an officer
to conduct government a candidate
who indorses all the acts of one
who has proven himself to have his
hand in the glove Of anarchy as he
handles affairs affecting the lives
of the people of Georgia.
I have no idea of voting myself,
for Mr.. Hoover. On the contrary,
shall reserve my vote for Demo-
crat who stands for established
democratic principles.
But my deliberate judgment is
that our convention should send to
San Francisco a delegation Of our
ablest party men, that they should
go uninstructed as to candidates, but
obligated to judge among the can
didates put before the convention
there, at any stage of it's proceed
ings, that one deemed the mos fit
and cast Georgia's ballot for him.
Yet, while [ prefer that the dele
cation vote as unit, am willing,
if our state convention so wills, that
each delegate be left free to vote
individually.
Very truly yours.

FRENCH WILL SEND

PARIS, March 13.-The French
government has not and will not send
any Instructions to Ambassador JUS
serand in Washington regarding
President Wilson's charge Of mill
tar1sm' against France, it was said
at the foreign office this morning. A
report was received that Ambassa-
dot Jusserand stated that on his own
initiative he called upon Under Sec
'r9ary of State Polk and told him Of
.th4 surprise and emotion caused In
'Ef4oe by the presidents letter.
{ ME. ambassador added that he had
made no representations.
NO comment was obtainable in Off
tia1 6ircles with the exception Of ex-
pressjhns of curiosity as to whether
Presf dent Wilson would take the op-
portdnity afforded by M. Jusserand's
call on Secretary Polk to correct the
disagreable impression his assertions
have made here.

Yet, we have not had from Presi-

partner, Gompers, openly says his

events are the logical result of
President wilson's alliance with the
