Independent Candidate for Governor
wee Given Courteoue Hearing.
(Prom Wednesday's Dally.)
Mr. Yancoy Carter, the Independ
ont candidate for governor, who li
making the race because a majority
of the people of the state differed
from him' ih'"the primary election,
made a short speech to a good audi
ence at the court house last night.
A brass band drummed up the
crowd, which seemed perfectly wil
ling to bear a discussion from the
Tlaw-polnt of an Independent. Leo-
turer Darla, of Floyd county, was
with him and made the first speech.
For some reason or other, none of
the followers here volunteered to In
troduce the'speaker, but he did not
seem to need an Introduction. A
number of boys were In the audi
ence, however, and did some grunt
ing aa be proceeded with his speech.
He discussed the platform of the In
dependent party and, after a speech
of a half an'hour, he Introduced Mr.
Csrter.
The candidate himself Is built on
the “Pawnee Bill" order and might
pass tor "handsome." In hts speech
he said that he was tn the state sen
ate twelve year* ago aa a populist;
that he was one of five delegatee
who tried to save the populist-party
at the St. Louis convention. He was
a "mlddlo-of-the-reader" then. He
said Tom Watson w|as responsible
for the collapse of populism. Then
he proceeded to lambast Watson In
good old style. He said that Watson
had been In the employ of the Repub
lican party for twelve years. He al
so said that there was s deal on
"between Watson and Brown, but he
■ offered no proof, except Watson's
support of Brown In the primary, to
substantiate the charge.
He admitted that he was recently
l«dl"ted by the grand Jury of his
"county for carrying n pistol to a
voting place. He said he would do
the same thing again If It were to
do over. He Intimated that t the
grand lory in his home county did
not like him. "When I announce for
office," ho said, “the grand Jury usu
ally honors me that way."
He charged fraud during the elec
tion and cited the large vote as proof
of the charge. He said that he was
• bolter and named Washington,
John Wesley and Robert E. Lee aa
bolters.' Ho said that they bolted
from old lines. They wets dissent,
tors, but there to no record that eith
er of them ever entered n primary
and then refused to abide the result
Tbs candidate stated that his
not speak long. He sold that he was
sick tn bed when the party conven
tion met and that the nomination
was handed him unsought. Later he
said that he furnished every plank
of the platform and Intimated that
he run the convention.
The speech created no enthusiasm,
though It was given a courteous hear
Ing by all factions. Little attention
was shown the Independent candi
date here. It Is not believed that he
will get many votes In Lowndes
:punty.
The Negroes Were Released.
The three negroes who wore ar
rested by Deputy Marshal Sutton
and brought hero from Pearson,
charged with Instigating the robbery,
of the post-office there by a little-
elght-year-old negro named Joe Pear
son, were turned loose after the hear
Ing before Commissioner Powell yes-
terday afternoon.
Judge Mack Varnedoe represented
the negroes and In the examination
of the little accnser, he drow out
enough to Justify the belief that the
boy Is the biggest liar that the good
community of Coffee has yet develop-
ed. The boy told several different
stories nbout the robbery, different
tales popping from hts lips Uke bub-
bias.
With such a poor witness for the
accuser, Commissioner Pewef] order
ed the release of the three negroes,
especially stneo they were able to
make a very good showing for them-
selveSL ’»
MUD SLINGING.
It was hoped by members of both
parties that this campaign would
pasa off without any bitterness or
mud slinging being Indulged In. It
has remained for Rooserelt, the
President of ths United States, to
lower himself to the level of a ward
politician and to revive the old dis
gusting methods of mud surging
campaigns.
Every man In the country that
knowa the record of Mr. Bijran,
knows that he la Incorruptible end
superior to Rooserelt or Taft Ev
eryone of the policies that Mr. Roos
evelt claims as his own was taken
bodily from ths teaching of Mr. Bry
an and Democratic platforms and It
Is s fact that Mr. Roosevelt never
originated a single one of them.
