TO MY FRIENDS
We are now starting on the last two weeks of the
campaign. Our political enemies have begun circulat
ing all sorts of stories against me. 1 hey are doing
this because they cannot meet the real issues oi the
campaign. v
During two years of my administration, some
thing was rcallv done for the people. \ou Have seen
the record of Governor Brown’s administration. Ab
solutely nothing in it for the people, not even attention
to such things as issuing commissions to county of
ficers. justices of the peace, and notary publics.
Will you not be at your precinct on the day of
election to see that every man who is with us votes
and works all day at the election to hui'd up our major
ity? Even’ wte is needed and every man who be
liev?s in progressive Democracy should give every mo
ment of his time possible from now till the close of the
polls on the 23rd of August.
I am getting splendid reports from all parts of
the state. We will certainly win if we do our duty
fpr the next two weeks. Sincerely yours,

Mirs indorsement
I
Was a Piece of Cannonism,
Pure and Simple. Declares
Camp Walker Minority
A vigorous protect, signed by 16 mem
bers of Camp Walker. No. 925. U. C. V.,
has been addressed to the general public,
following the passage of resolutions by
the camp Monday night, indorsing the
candidacy of Governor Brown. It is de
clared that a Confederate camp never
baa been properly and never should be a
political organisation, and that the rail
roading of the Brown resolution over the
heads of a strong minority Monday even
ing was a piece of Cannon Ism. pure and
simple. »
The protest follows:
*To the Public:* We wish to make a
protest to the so-called Indorsement of
Gov. J. M. Brown's administration by
Camp Walker. No. 925. United Confed
erate Veterans. In the first place, a
Confederate camp is not a political or
ganization. and we fought this pro
posed indorsement to the last ditch.
"Besides that feature of our objection
there are many members of the camp
whose political views the indorsement
does not represent.
•*We desire to ask the public how
many Confederate veterans are on Gov
ernor Brown's staff? We WQuld further
more ask the question: In what por
tion of the United States was his chief
of staff born? Is he a southerner, and
is he a Confederate veteran? Under all
the circumstances we feel that the in
dorsement of Governor Brewn by this
eamp was a piece of Cannonlem pure and
simple, and we the minority reserve the
right to vote according to the dictates
of our own consciences. Since Gover
nor Smith has denied the return to the
quarterly payment of pensions if elected,
we feel that he Is the choice of a goodly
number of our camp and that any offi
cial Indorsement of either candidate by
the camp itself does many of its mem
bers a grave injustice. We recognize
in former Governor Smith an able, im
partial statesman and politician.
"Respectfully submitted.
"J. H. SHELLNUT.
“and
"Fifteen others.”
The adoption of the Brown resolution
was preceded by a heated debate.
W. P. Archer, adjutant of the camp;
J. M Spurlin. **. O. Foard. Dr. J. T.
Keown. W. T. Bowden and others spoke
in favor of the resolution, while J. A.
Cherry. W. D. Stewart. J. E. Maddox,
J. T.* Reams and others opposed it.
The resolution, which was adopted by
a vote of 26 to 16. was introduced by
Mr. Spurlin.
HOWARD MAKES SPEECH
AT DOUGLASVILLE
DOUGLASVILLE. Ga.. Aug. Ift.—Hon.
William Schley Howard, candidate for
congress from the Fifth district, ad
dressed about JOT voters of Douglas coun
ty in the court house here yesterday.
He was introduced by Col. J. H. McLar
ty. former representative of this county.
Mr. Howard strongly denounced the Re
publican alliances of Colonel Livingston.
He was especially bitter in his denun
ciation of a circular letter sent out by
Colonel Livingston in which it was stat
ed that Mr. Howard was being aided in
his race by money furnished by the New
York cotton exchange.
The speaker declared that it was the
first time tn the history of a race by a
southern congressman that a northern
magazine should come to the rescue, as
the Saturday Evening Post had in its
"Who Is Who—and Why” in behalf of
Colonel Livingston.
Mr. Howard applied the caustic freely
to the reports that he was a drunkard.
"Do I look like a drunkard?" said he.
when some one far back replied. “You
don't look bloated." The speaker said
he weighed 118 pounds, but after August
23 his avoirdupois would begin to pick
up. This was his 96th speech during the
campaign.

PLAN MUSCOGEE VIGTORY
Aid Is Pledged to Former Gov
ernor At Rousing Meeting
in Columbus
(Special Dispatchto The Journal.)
COLUMBUS. Ga., Aug. 9.—The Mus
cogee County Hoke Smith club was or
ganized in the superior court room at
the court house last night in one of the
largest political gatherings of the year.
Tuere were men present from every
walk of life, men engaged in every pro
fession and calling, who showed plainly
that they had gathered to do full jus
tice to the occasion.
The meeting was scheduled to begin
at 8:15 o'clock, but long before that
time the crowd began gathering and by
the opening hour every nook and corner
of the large court room was filled and
the crowd had begun to overflow. Seats
were full, the aisles were full inside and
the chancel rails were also filled as was
the gwlery. From the noise it appeared
that tne lungs of every man present
was in good working order.
Free from bitterness, not a word was
said that a man on the opposing side
could have taken offense at. The argu
ment presented by the speakers of the
evening as a matter of course was giv
en in an effort to show the position of
the opposing faction.
MANY NAMES SIGNED.
Cards for membership to the Hoke
Smith club were scattered throughout
the audience, and hundreds of these
cards were signed and returned to the
secretary, thereby signifying the inten
tion of the man who signed the card to
become a member of the club. Before
the speaking began a bundle of pictures
of Mr. Smith, together with extracts
from a speech of his, was opened and the
crowd rushed forward to secure a pic
ture. The supply was soon exhausted,
and before half of the Immense crowd
had been supplied. Hon. Frank U. Gar
rard, one of the ablest and most enthu
siastic Hoke Smith men in Georgia, call
ed the meeting to order and nominated
Hon. A. A. Carson for temporary chair
man. The nomination was seconded and
Mr. Carson was unanimously elected
amidst storms of applause.
On ascending the rostrum he was giv
en an enthusiastic reception and pro
ceeded to make a rousing speech. He
began Ihs address by stating that he con
sidered it a great honor to be selected
as presiding officer of such a gathering
of his fellow-citizens. He said that he
was glad to espouse the cause of a man
of the ability of Hoke Smith. He re
ferred to the former governor as a
statesman equal to any in the country
and a man that had no superior. He be
lieved that -the time would come when
the nation would recognize his greatness
and that he would be called to higher
service. He said that Mr. Smith wa% a
man of the people who knew the people
and their wants and endeavored to car
ry out their wishes. Mr. Carson’s ad
dress was received with round after
rohnd of applause which showed that
the audience was unmistakably with
him.- Hon. Frnftk U. Garrard introduc
ed Samuel C. Olive, of Elberton, as the
principal speaker of ihe occasion.
SPEECH OF OLIVE.
Mr. Olive said he had not come to
Columbus to try to tell others what to
do, but to set forth the merits of Hon.
Hoke Smith as candidate for governor,
and tell them why he thought the dis
tinguished gentleman should be elected.
He said that people of Georgia are con
fronted with a condition that finds a
counterpart in nearly every state in the
union, an element claiming to be Demo
crats but recationa’ry and identical with
(’annonism. Hoke Smith's name, he
said, was something more than the
name of a man. He was pictured as a
man who has convictions and has the
bravery and ability to express them, re
gardless of who might disapprove of
them. He said that in the lore of prize
ring he is a man who can “come back”
and is “not knocked out” but was “com
ing back" with the voters of the state
behind him. The speaker was loudl>
and frequently applauded.

CITIES«NOT ■
COUNTRY ELECTED
GOVERNOR BROWN
Reuben Arnold Makes Hot Re
joinder to Executive —New
Registration Law Cuts Near
ly All Illegal Votes
Reuben R. Arnold furnishes a reply
Wednesday ts the card issued Tuesday
morning by Governor Brown, and gives
figures to show that the bulk of the ma
jority that Governor received at the last
election was given him by the cities.
In considering Governor Brown’s dis
cussion of the vote cast for him in the
country districts, Mr. Arnold says that
the charge that any criticism has been
placed upon the farmers who voted In
their home precincts for Governor Brown
is a weak effort.
He shows that Governor Brown, at
the last election, carried Savannah by
over 3.000 majority. Atlanta by over 2,000
majority, Macon by over 1,000 majority
and Rome by over 500 majority.
The registration in Atlanta is 5,000
smaller than it was at Governor Brown's
election. He declares that this shortage
represents largely an illegal vote that
was cast in Atlanta, and that with it
eliminated by the new registration law
Jovernor Brown cannot carry Atlanta or
.he other cities in which he secured a
majority.
He touches on the declaration that Gov
ernor Brown is the power that produced
i6-cent cotton, he refers to the treasury
aeficlt that turned out to be a (2,000,000
surplus. and speaks of the governor's fail
ure to send commissions to men who
nave been elected to county offices.
Mr. Arnold’s reply follows:
MR. ARNOLD'S REPLY.
“I am not surprised that my friend
Maddox, campaign manager for Gov
ernor Brown, has deemed It necessary
to supplement Governor Brown's long
letter by something from himself. The
letter was indeed a wonder. Nearly half
of it was devoted to trying to show
that he was not elected by the city vote
before.
“He picked out some Isolated places
where he got a good vote In the coun
try. Governor Brown forgot about the
numerous counties that had no cities in
them that voted against him. His effort
to make anybody believe that any criti
cism has been placed upon the farm
ers who live at home who voted for
him is weak. No one will be fooled
by it.
"Governor Brown carried Savannah by
over 3.000 majority, he carried Atlanta
by over 2,000, he carried Macon by over
1.000, he carried Rome by over 500. Here
he has to start with the bulk of the ma
jority which he received in the state
given him by the city vote.
“I shall not undertake to discuss the
illegal votes cast elsewhere for him In
Georgia, but I have no hesitation about
referring to Atlanta, my own home. The
registration two years ago was 19,800
in Atlanta. This year he must get his
vote out of a registration of 14,400. That
a large part of the excess registration
was an illegal registration and that they
voted for Governor' Brown, t>pbody In
Atlanta doubts. This 5,000 shortage of
registration in Atlanta is the kind of4l
- votes that were cast for Governor
Brown. Os course, there are softie good
men who have failed to register in At
lanta, but there are always good men
who fail to register and fall to vote.
Governor Brown knows he has lost the
labor vote and with his illegal vote cut
off by the new registration law he can
not now carry the cities.
BOTH ARE MISTAKEN.
“Governor Brown and Mr. Maddox are
mistaken, when they suppose that the
farmers are not intelligent and observ
ing men. They read more than the peov
pie in the cities, and they know what is
going on. They can no more be fooled
by Governor Brown s letter and Mr. Mad
dox’s interview on the subject of who
were the illegal voters who supported
Governor Brown than they can be fooled
with the dope sent out from Brown
headquarters trying to make them be
lieve that Governor Brown had some
thing to do with 16-cent cotton in Geor
gia. They know that the Farmers’ un
ion and their own intelligent work, plant
ing more food stuff and selling their
cotton carefully, has gradually built up
the price of cotton, and Manager Mad
dox and Governor Brown’s other support
ers are following a cold trail. He can
not get the vote of the farmers.
“The funny thing about Governor
Brown s letter was the way in which he
explained to the people his slandering
the treasury, and his receiving a report
tnat the state treasury would have 82,-
000,000 surplus on January 1, 1909, and
suppressing It. Did you read what he
said about it? „
“Another funny thing about his letter
was the way In which he explained the
carelessness in his office and its entire
lack of business or system. Did you see
how he told all about not sending com
missions to notaries public, justices of the
peace, and county officers, after they had
been elected?
“Still another funny thing about the
letter is Governor Brown’s effort to get
out of recommending .e legislature to
take from the railroad commission the
power to supervise bond and stock issues
made by public service companies. He
said he did not do it. Any one who will
look at the top of page 27 of his mes
sage sent to the legislature on July 1.
1909, will see that he has forgotten hlg
own message. I take the charitable view
of it and think he forgot it just like he
forgets to send out commissions to men
elected to county offices.
“As I understand Governor Brown and
Mr. Maddox, their position Is that Gov
ernor Brown gave the state a great busi
ness administration by neglecting to issue
commissions to men who had been elected,
and by this he put up the price of cot
ton.”

WITH MAN EATING SHARK
BOSTON, Aug. 9.—The next time Syed

the vessel was passing through the Red

jumped overboard. No trace of the Lias

ANTI-LOBBY BILL
MEETS DEFEIT BY
SENATEFILIBUSTER
Was a Fight Between Progres
sive Supporters of Hoke
Smith Working for Bill and
Brown Supporters
By filibustering until the hour of ad
journment the opponents of the Wright
antl-lobbylng bill prevented It from be
ing put on Its second reading in the
senate Tuesday afternoon, and thereby
defeated It. From beginning to finish it
was a fight between the progressive
supporters of Hoke Smith on the one
hand, working to pass the bill, and the
Brown supporters and sympathizers on
the other, working to kill It. If the bill
had been put on its merits It would have
' passed, as It had 30 votes.
I Not only did the filibuster kill the antl-
I lobbying bill, but it killed half a dozen
other bills of Importance, on which there
would have been no organized fight and
which would have passed In all proba
bility. These bills lost out, like the antl
lobbylng bill, because they were not put
on their second reading. The senators
engaged In filibustering had no fight on
these bills, but they were so determin
ed to kill the antl-lobbylng bill that
It didn’t make any difference to them
how many others they killed in accom
plishing their purpose.
Repeated efforts were made . to. stop
the filibuster for the sake of saving these
bills, but the senators making these
appeals simply wasted their breath.
These appeals were not made by sena
tors working for the antl-lobbylng bill.
They were made by Senators Matthews
and Slater, who were both lined up with
the opponents of It.
And not only did the filibustering
forces refuse to let up and show quar
ter to these bills, but by refusing to
yield the floor during the last 15 or 20
minutes of the session they cut off re
peated efforts to make a motion to have
a night session, just in order to save
these other bills. And the senator want
ing to make this motion was Senator Sla
ter, one of the strongest opponents of
the antl-lobbylng bill.
SUPPORTERS IN MAJORITY.
On the preliminary tight at the morn
ing session, the supporters of the antl
lobbylng bill showed up strongly in the
majority. The preliminary fight was
made to get the bill out of the hands
of the committee on banks and banking
to whleh It had been referred Monday on
motion of Senator Julian McCurry, one of
the leaders of the" filibuster. Failing to
get the bill away from the banking com
mittee, the supporters of the bill had
rallied again and made a concerted rush
to force the committee to report on it
immediately. Then Senator Morris, also
a leader in the filibuster, the chairman
of the committee, had flatly refused to
call the committee—taking refuge in his
constitutional right to retain his seat as
long as the senate remained In session.
So the supporters of the bill had to
compromise by waiting until 3 o’clock
for the banking committee to report.
Tiny recommended that the bill do not
pass, which was just what the whole
senate knew they would do. In fact,
Senator Morris, at the morning session,
had predicted as much.
And it was when the supporters of the
bill renewed the fight with a resolution
asking the rules committee to meet at
once and set the antl-lobbylng bill for an
immediate special order—for the purpose
of disagreeing to the committee’s ad
verse report—that the filibuster started.
This resolution was signed by a majority
of the senate.
Senator Julian McCurry opened the fili
buster by calling for the ayes and nays
on the resolution. The opponents of the
bill voted to sustain the motion, and be
ing 12 in number they constituted the nec
essary one-fifth vote. The "roll call pro
ceeded .and when the name of Senator
Calhoun—another opponent of the bill—'
was reached, he asked to explain his vote.
Instantly Senator McCurry objected. This
made room for a motion to allow Senator
Calhoun to explain, and on this motion
the ayes and nays were called. Again
the opponents of the bill voted to sus
tain the call, and again the roll call pro
ceeded. This time it proceeded as far as
Senator Irwin—another opponent of the
bill—before there was a request to ex
plain a vote. Instantly there was ob
jection by the opposition, and this made
room for another motion. On this Sena
tor McCurry called for the ayes and nays
SLATON' READY WITH RULE.
President Slaton was ready, rule book
In hand. He delved Into it, and present
ly emerged with $ rule. But the time
hadn't quite arrived when he could ap
ply It, and the call was sustained. Sena
tor Irwin talked in explanation of his
vote for the full three minutes allowed,
much to the amusement of the entire sen
ate. When his time expired Senator Cal
houn moved to extend it. On this Sena
tor McCurry called for the ayes and
nays.
Then President Slaton got a chance to
apply his rule, and he declared the call
out of order. He ruled that the ayes
and nays could be called on any ques
tion directly bearing on legislation; but
that on a purely subsidiary motion the
call could not be in order, since if It wore
the call could be prolonged Indefinitely—
“on an explanation of an explanation,
or an explanation of an explanation,” ad
infinitum.
On the question of allowing Senator
Calhoun to vote the supporters of the
bill stood together, and ho was voted
down. Then the roll call was resumed
on the main resolution. It got as far as
Senator Irwin, who wanted to explain.
Then the same procedure was repeated.
A little further down the list it was
repeated again, and the chair again got
a chance to apply hts ruling on the sub
sidiary motion. Whereupon Senator
Calhoun appealed from the ruling, put
the motion, called the ayes and nays,
and off it went again. During this roll
call Senator Matthews, one of the op
ponents of the antl-lobbylng bill, was
allowed to explain his vote and urged
the senate to uphold the chair. He de
plored the “filibuster and the dilatory
tactics.” His words might as well not
have been uttered.
MAIN CALL FINISHED.
Finally the main roll call was finished,
and the resolution was adopted. Sena
tor McCurry moved to reconsider. Sen
ator Jackson, leader of the bill's sup
porters, made the point that no business
had been transacted. He was not sus
tained. Again there was a roll call. It
got as far as Senator Slater, of the op-1
position. They let him explain his
vote. He pleaded with the leaders of
the filibuster to stop, In order to save
other bills waiting to be read the second
time. “You have already demonstrated
you can kill the bill,” said he, "so wait
until tomorrow and resume the filibus
ter, after everything else has been
saved." And, like Senator Matthews, he
might as well not have said a word.
At 4:45 o’clock—just 15 minutes be
fore time to adjourn—Senator Irwin got
The earl of Euston conferred on th*
the floor on "personal privilege" and
spoke until adjournment. Efforts were
made to stop him, but there was no rule
to stop him. It was while he had the
floor that Senators Matthews and Slater
tried again to get the session extended,
but they failed.
When It was all over the clerk s desk
was littered with roll call sheets which
had been used In the fillbustar. JEvsry

ATLANTA MAY HI
AN "OLD BOY” WEEK
Jack M. Wilson Has Made the
Suggestion and It Meets
With Approval
"Come home, old boys, come home,"
may be the call sent out from all At
lanta In the next few weeks.
An "old boys” week Is being planned r
a week to be given up to boys and men
who once lived in Atlanta or who may
now call the city’ home but happen to be
away.
The "old boys” week will be a general
• invitation from all of Atlanta for the
prodigal son to return. The fatted calf
will be killed Cor him and there will be
days and nights of jollification.
The prime mover for old boys week is
Jack M. Wilson, and his Interest in the
affair is caused by the old boys’ reunion
at Belleville, Ontario.
Mr. Wilson has seen a number of prom
inent men regarding the old boys week
for Atlanta and every one has agreed
that the idea is a fine one. Monday he
■consulted with members of the chamber
of commerce and Tuesday morning had
a consultation with President F. J. Paxon,
of the chamber, looking to some definite
plan of action.
“The town of Belleville,” he says, “has
a population of only 12,000, and yet there
were 20,000 visitors on the old boys’ days.
Boys and men that many thought dead
came back to Belleville to jol£ In the
general holiday, to see the home folks
once again and take a look at the town.
We can have ten times as many people
here as Belleville."
President Paxon, after having talked
the matter over with Mr. Wilson, decided
to call a meeting at the chamber of
commerce for Thursday afternoon. This
meeting will formulate a plan of action
and get to work at once. Railroad offi
cials seen say they are heartily In favor
of the Idea, and It Is thought very low
rates can be obtained. It may be that
the old boys’ week will not be held this
fall, however, but will be arranged for
in May.
one of them showed the same vote.
Those who had voted together on the
filibuster were: Senators Akin of the
4th, Calloway of the 29th, Cotlum of the
13th, Irwin of the 11th, Longley of the
87th, Morris of the 18th. McDowell of
the 9th, McCurry of the 31st, McCollum
of the 36th, McClure of the 39th, and
Price of the 27th.
Test Vote Shows How the
Senators Stood on Measure
The vote taken Tuesday on the resolu
tion asking the banking committee to
meet at once and report on the anti-lobby
bill, was the test vote. Those voting aye
were for the bill. It Is as follows:

SHERIFF GARMAN!
' UNFURL! TREATED
Walker County Officer Says
Governor Brown Treated
Him Badly—His Appeal
Sheriff R. 8. Garmany, of Walker
county, has issued a card to the sheriffs
of Georgia, reciting the details of the
trouble at the Durham mines and the
unfair treatment he was accorded by
Governor Brown. His card follows:
LaFayette Ga., Aug. 8, 1910.
To My Brother Sheriffs of the State:
I feel interested in ex-Governor
Smith's election this time, as Governor
Brown has treated me so unfairly In re
gard to sending troops to Durham mines.
He never did communicate with me in
any way to see whether troops were
needed or not. I can truthfully say
that they were not needed. After troops
arrived at mines J. W. English, Jr., man
ager of the mines, ordered troops to ar
rest Italian miners, which they did. Aft
er arresting 22 Italian laborers J. W.
English, Jr., told the Italian laborers if
they would leave the mountain, get off
his property, he would not prosecute
them.
All the Italians wanted was their pay
for the work they had done. That was
what they contended for, so you can
see the poor laborers were forced away.
English Is a strong supporter of Gover
nor Brown, and I have heard it said that
he gave heavily two years ago to Gov
ernor Brown's campaign fund. I can’t
say that this statement Is true; I have
only heard It. They say they had a
right to send troops to the mines, under
orders of a special deputy sheriff that I
had appointed only for English's mines.
I gave him no jurisdiction anywhere else
only on mining property. I did not
know him, and he not try to get me.
If he had he could have gotten me by
phone or telegraph. I only live 18 miles
from the mines. He, Special Deputy
Sheriff Mitchel, goes to Chattanooga,
Tenn,, there he found J. W. English,
Jr. In a few minutes they were calling
for Governor Brown In Chattanooga. I
only live 26 miles from Chattanooga,
much nearer to call for me than Gover
nor Brown, with long distance telephons
service and two telegraph stations here.
This will be eight years that I have
held the sheriff’s office of Walker coun
ty, and have been master of the office,
so the people say, and there has nevr
been a time but what I could have mus
tered up enough good men to handle 22
Italians In an hour’s time.
Well, J. W. English, Jr., told the Ital
ian miners that they must get off his
property. No Italians in Walker coun
ty now. No troops needed In Walker
county now to quell Italian laborers.
Very respectfully.
R. 8. GARMANY.
Sheriff of Walker County, Georgia.
