Atlanta, Feb. 10.—The following let-, ‘After two conferences of West's ter by H. W. Hopkins, of Atlanta In blends in Atlanta in the fall, at both which It is stated that Hon. W. W. Os-; of *&lch West was - present, It was borne, of Savannah, made f ho charge j agreed that we had been given a deep- in his last communication that the; tone “Ha-Ha!” and tha( Steed had senate of Georgia is controlled by cor porate interests, and in which it is declared the evidence on which the charge is based should be given to the public, has been furnished to the state papers which have been printing the Osborne letters. “I have read and reread the letter of Mr. Osborne in the state papers of Sunday. I distinctly declare I have no purpose of butting in to the fren zied political discussion of which that letter is the latest chapter, but as a Democrat, a citizen of Georgia, and enjcMng the personal acquaintance, and, I hope, the friendship of many of the present members of the senate, I write to these some papers in tho sin cere hope that an impression created by that letter, as a result of agitation, be removed from the minds of the peo ple of Goergia, and a stain from the party to which I belong. “I believo Mr. Osborne will do it himself upon further reflection, or else, if he is firm in the belief that such a state of things exists, he will train his guns upon the senate of Georgia as well as upon 'corporate representatives!’ West, Blalock and Candw.' heat to death.’ “Now, what is the Inference from these statements? It Is mild to call it inference, for it is practically a charge that ‘certai n representatives of corporate Interests' absolutely con trol a majority of the senators of Georgia; that this control is so abso lute that they are enabled to fix them for one man and then take them away and transfer them to another at their will. Am I fair In this statement? Mr. Osborne states that the matter was arranged in the spring to make West president, he went away ’with a light heart’ Must he not have had faith in those with whom he dealt, of their ability to deliver the goods—the votes of the senators? When he came back these goods had been taken from West and delivered to Steed. "This delivery to Steed was discov ered as a result of ‘two conferences held in Atlanta.' Was it discovered by communications with the senators? Again, these representatives retire Steed and give back the votes West. "If Mr. Osborne had been content ‘In substance, Mr. Osborne states to charge that corporate Influence was that last spring, as a result of nego- attempting to control the election of tiatlons with tLe representatives of this office, there would have been no certain corporate interests, it was reflection upon the senators or upon agreed that Mr. West was to be sup ported for president of the senate. To quote Mr. Osborne literally: Having formally obtained powers the party, but he does more. He prac tically charges in advance of tho elec tion, that results have been accom plished which, if true, a majority of plenipotentiary to treat, after soveral, the senate-elect of Georgia should be conferences with the representatives asked to resign their seats. If true, aforesaid, they conceded South Geor gia the presidency of the senate, and West was selected as our standard bearer. I thought the whole affair finally arranged. I went on my sum- they are not representatives of the people, but mere puppets in the hands of two or three men ^ho trade their votes as they would beans or potatoes. I do not believe it.
