London, Nov. 9.—The Standard prints a dispatch from Its Dublin correspond ent. In which It is stated th.it Richard f'reiser, ex-boss of Tammany says the outcome of the election In Now York state last Tuesday was no sur prise to him. Mr. Croker is quoted as saying: *T think the election will prove a considerable education to Mr. Ilearst, and I am sure he will profit by it, al though defeated. In my opinion Mr. liearst Is bound to be a factor in poli tics. If he could have held his own vote, and if he had the support of in dependent laboring men, I believe he would have been elected by 100,000 plurality. He has made a remarkably good fight, and he has reason to be proud of It.” Special to The Georgian. Moultrie, Oa., Nov. 9.—With Hales <ity us the destination, and the life of a negro as the stake, Mitchell county witnessed one of the most remarkable races In the history of the state yes terday afternoon. The race wak be tween the Moultrie Rifles and H he riff Forehand with his negro prisoner, Jet Hicks, whom Sheriff Forehand was en- dcuvorlng to turn over to the Mitchell county officers, In which the Sheriff won. Back of this was the feur of the mob. The troops realised that if the pris oner was delivered to the sheriff that lynching was sure to follow. Sheriff Forehand, on the other hand, was try Ing to discharge his duty and deliver the prisoner to the proper authorities. Jail Stormed By Mob. ' Then came the mob and won a vic tory over both. The negro was Imme diately taken from the Jail and lynched. Sheriff Forehand reached Sale City f* o'clock, and his prisoner was turned over to the Mitchell county of ficers, who placed him In the city guard house. In a very short time a mob was formed, which stormed the prison and took Hicks out nnd lynched him. The mob bud dhqierscd when the military company reached there and nil was quiet. The company re turned to Moultrie on a special train. Had Murdered Planter. The crime was a henlous one. Hicks had been repeatedly warned by John Hut- negro . and he went to the door and demanded that It be opened. The result was that In the next moment the door was opened and helwaa shot through the head and instantly killed. The negro escaped, and -search was begun. A local reward of $250 was offered for the murderer. The governor added to this $150.- Meta Hicks, the reputed wife of Jett Hicks, was found dead In a field belong- Ing to Mr. Akridge since Hicks com mitted the murder, fin her body Arere two bullet wounds. The coroner's ver dict was that she died by unknown hands. Troops Ordered Out. Hicks was arrested at Vienna, later Identified and brought to Moultrie. Sheriff Campbell was out of the city, and Sheriff Forehand, of Dooly, who had him In charge, kept him at a livery stable for a couple of hours. Ills pres ence hero created some excitement, es- Iieclally since several relatives of the dead man were In town and rumors were soon current that a lynching was on foot. Governor Terrell was noti fied, and he instructed Captain Thud Adams, of the Moultrie Rifles, to pro tect the negro. When demand waa made at the stables for the prisoner, the military officials were notified that the sheriff of Dooly and Dr. Stevens had spirited him away through the country and would try to reach the sheriff of Mitchell, with whom they hod conferred by wire at Sule City. After they were out of town and on an unknown route, a message came from the sheriff of Mitchell advising that u mob wuh being organised at Sule City, and asking Sheriff Forehand to tuko the negro around by Tlfton, meeting him in Albany. The message was too late. Acting on Instructions from Judge W. N. Spencer, Governor Terrell nnd Assistant Adjutant Scott, the Moultrie 111 ties, commanded by Captain Thud Adams, left here at 6:16 p. m. for Sale City. Speculator Brown Played Important Part. Thomas K. Watson. In the current Is sue of The Jeffersonian, his own week ly paper, makes some startling charges of Ingratitude against Harvie Jordan, president of the Southern Cotton As sociation. He recounts his own con nection with the association and ac cuses Jordan of getting rid of him at the orders or suggestion of Brown, the millionaire cotton speculator. His story of his own wrongs Is told In a graphic and forceful manner. In Thursday afternoon papers Charles S. Barrett, president of the Farmers* Union, published a commu nication calling upon Harvie Jordan to explain why he "froze" Thomas Watson out of the executive committee of the Southern Cotton Association. This Is strengthened by Mr. Watson's own article recounting his wrongs. Mr. Watson's article, as published In The Jeffersonian, follows: Tom Watson’s Story. "It was in New Orleans, January, If 05. "The farmers of the South had met to organlxe. They wanted better prices for cotton. It was a matter pf life or death to Southern prosperity. Cotton was sidling at 6 cents; and certain pa pers were publishing long.ortlcles from Theodore Price, urging the farmers to sell at 6 cents before the price went down to 5. At that time 10 cents cotton seem ed 'the unattainable.' 'Still, there were those who believed that organised resistance to the bears of Wall street would result In victory for the fanners. "Consistent with my life record, I volunteered my services to the under dog in the fight. "At my own expense I attended the New Orleans convention. "The first thing I did after arriving was to hunt up llar\ie Jordan and Po(>e Brown. To them the offer was mude to aid them, to the extent of my capacity, in any manner that they might suggest. Harvie Jordan was u candidate for the presidency, and u strong opposition hud sprung up. I as sured Harvie of my cordial support und told him to command me If he should need me. * ‘isn’t That 8o?” "Isn’t that so, Harvie? "Isn't that so, Pope? "Well, there must have been quite a lot of Juggling and negotiation, for, all nt once, the opposition to Harvlo melt ed ; way. "How it was pacIAed, is Harvle's se cret, not mine. "After the convention got to going, it didn’t take long for my friends to real ise that the men In control were hand ing me out large hunks of 'cold should* 00000000000000000000000000 o 0 O PRESIDENT JORDAN 0 O REPLIES TO BARRETT. O O O I have already stated that I O 0 would refuse to engage in any 0 0 further controversy with Mr. Bar- III O retr, who seems to be badly ad- O O vised ' every time he passes O O through* Atlanta. O O "Cotton Is now selling below 10 0 0 cents yer pound and my whole 0 0 time Is fully engaged In exercls- 0 0 Ing every effort In my power to O 0 fight the combinations against us; 0 O fight the combinations against us; 0 O in appealing to the farmers of the O 0 South to check the present heavy 0 0 movement of the-staple to market 0 0 and In trying to force prices back 0 0 to a living and legitimate profit. 0 0 "I shall not be swerved from my 0 O path of duty to engago In sensu- 0 O tlonal newspaper controversies at 0 0 a time so critical to the cotton 0 0 growers of the South. 0 0 "HARVIE JORDAN.” O 0 0 00000000000000000000000000 er. The men of the rank and Ale re sented this, and pretty soon there was an overwhelming sentiment against the cold shoulder diet. •By a rising vote, and with great en thusiasm, an lnvltutlon to address tho convention was extended to me. "I was not present. Weary of listen ing to typewritten essays spouted from the platform and somewhat dyspeptic on account of that constant diet of cold shoulder, I had gone to the matinee to hear some good harmonies of Tunn- hauser. I forgot all about the dyspep sia, und the typewritten oratory of Harvle's convention. "But the committee sent by the con vention to And me were a conscientious lot of mortals, and I was duly located, Invited and urged Into un acceptance. That night the convention gave me a great ovation. The Georgia papers, with one exception, said little or noth ing about It—for It Is the habit of Georgia papers to give me what Harvie Jordan was giving me—cold shoulder. But the m£n Who had gone from all parts of the Southern states to that convention will tell you that no man there was given such an ovation ns the farmers of the South gave to me. *‘l Was Their Champion.” ‘They knew that I had been their champion long before Harvie Jordan was ever known. 'They knew that I was one of their leaders in the dark year when they fought the jute bagging trust. "Thnt was nearly eighteen years ago. "Harvie hadn’t been hoard of then. "They knew how devotedly I had stood by them In the battlos of the Farmers’ - Alliance. "That waa sixteen years ago. "And Harvle’s name was upon no body's lips. 1 "Yes, the Southern farmers who had assembled at New Orleans knew that I hod come there because 1 wanted to help them In their efforts to secure a square deal. They knew.I wanted to help them, "With a wild enthusiasm which a purely industrial convention has sel dom witnessed, they approved my speech, und they followed this up by EVERY TABLE (with rare exception) Harvard and Yale at Get Winter Clothing Right Nowf Why save to give the cash stores your money when we A will furnish you with Winter Clothing now at just the .-ame *** price, and at 20 per cent less than any other Credit stor?.
