Moses, of Coweta county, addressed a large crowd of farmers of Cobb county in the court house in Marietta on Saturday after noon, in favor of Hon. Joseph M. Brown’s candidacy for governor. The court-room was well filled, many ladies ibeing present, and Mr., Moses was ‘heartily applauded in making his ad dress. He was introduced by W. J, Manning, one of Cobb county’s most successful farmers. Mr. Moses spoke for two hours, and when he had to stop to cateh the train for Atlanta, where he spoke Saturday night, he was urged to continue. . Mr. Moses said he had been fighting Hoke Smith on the negro question for fifteen years, and presented documen tary evidence showing that Hoke Smith | notonly advocated appropriating money | to educate the negroes, but also that Smith said in his address before the legislature, ‘‘that the negroes must re ceive equal education as the whites, in fact, a thorough edueation.” He also took Mr Smith to task for claiming to have forced the railways to pay $500,000 in taxes, robbing General Wright, a gray-haired ex-Confederate soldier, of this honor, which Smith had nothing to do with, While Smith was charging the railroads not paying full taxes, he also showed that Smith sold a half interest in The Atlanta Journai for $250,000, and tax returns show he is only paying taxes on $93,000 worth of property, which records of Fulton ecoun- l ty will show, After the speaking, the Cobb county Joe Brown Club committee held a meet ing and consolidated the lists from the county, showing 1,300 names enrolled for Brown for governor, with several precinets to hear from.

Fitzpatrick, of Wash ington, Ga,, was in Marietta Monday in the interest of the candidacy of Hon. Jogeph M. Brown. Governor Smith, in a speech at Washington, Saturday, had declared that the Republican meeting here a few weeks ago had endorsed Mr. Brown’s candidacy and passed resolu tions ealling on negroes to work for Mr. Brown. Mr. Fitzpatrick, who is a lead ing merchant of his town, challenged the statement, and came to Marietta for information on the subject. No such resolutions were adopted or intro duced in the meeting. Mr. Fitzpatrick got an affidavit to that effect from a party whose word will not be doubted here where he is known—Postmaster D. C. Cole.””—Marietta News.
