(jpORGIA IS TIRED OF DECEIVERS DESERTERS, HYPOCRITES AND REDS. THEY SHALL NOT RULE HER IN SENATE The people eft this state have made up their minds to elect a man to the United States senate who Is known absolutely to be true and loyal to the party and to the country. They have made up their minds to see to it that men who during the war were found guilty of seditious utter ances shall never hold an office In this state. That much Is csrtaln. The people of Georgia have made up their minds that men who ob structed and delayed war measures In the United States senate Shall never hold office in Georgia. That determination on the part of the people has been settled and sweeping denials, as made by Hoke 8mlth of his. record, will not mislead nor deceive the people of this state Into voting for him for re-election. j Senator 8mith Is claiming now that ne favors only two or thru* of the Lodge reservations to the covenant of peace, and denies his former claims that he wrote them ail. That |s sufficient to bar him from an endorsement of the people of this state.' This is no time for straddling; this Is no time for half way grounds. You must stand either for or against the League of Nations, as brought back from France or else you wilt destroy the covenant. The reservations as prepared by the Repub lican leader and voted for by Hoke Smith would emasculate the treaty and cause ether nations to lose confidence and respect for this country. Democrats can not afford to vote for a mart who has aligned himself with the Republicans and cast hlo vote against Democratic measures and against the president and the leaders of the - Democratic party. Hoke Smith has a record for having offered amendments to all war measures Introduced In the senate in order to delay and obstruct, and, if possible defeat the measures desired by President Wilson, Secretary of War Baker, Secretary of Navy Josephus Daniels and the leaders of the Democratic party in the senate. .

Tho Hon. John N. Holder addressed a crowd that packed the Colonlabthea ter to capacity last night and greeted his arguments In favor of his Candida cy for governor with frequent ap plauso. A big delegation of Jncksoi county people, his homo folks wen here for tbe speech and led all the chocring that was done. After Hon. Toombs DuBoso Intro duced Mr. Holder In a complimentary talk In which he reviewed tho candl date’s accomplishments briefly durlnr tho nineteen years he has spent In th house, Mr. Holder took the plstfom In a burst of applause anjl proceeded to discuss the Issues of the campalgr as he saw them. Tho spoaker reviewed his qualifies linns for the governorship. During his nineteen years In tbe house he d dared ho had always been the friend of tho common schools, of agrlcnltu nnil the University. He enumerated several bills ho had framed or favpred for the benefit of both. Ho was author of the law putting felony convicts or the roads and one creating a drainage commission. Ho also helped revisc thc rules of tho house to make It more efficient. Mr. Holder declared himself a bus Incss man, n banker, a farmer and a newspaper man. lie promised a bust ness administration and declared him self qualified to give one. ’’One of my friends In the housr told me that he had run a newspaper eight years and thut It took him six teen years after to get out of dcl)t. I have been running a newspaper twen ty-nlno years,” he declared, ’’and am running for governor on the money I made at It.” Laughter greeted the sal iy- Holder proposed to create the offlc' of auditor to make the mon"y upending of the state more scientific and to I w or taxis. In addressing himself to bis oppo nents, he declared that he wanted votes on bis own merits and not n* the demerits of his opponents and In ferred an apology for attacking them Ho passed over Walter R. Brown will; a joke. Hardwick he derided for run ning on a national platform. A man with as big a platform ss Hardwick's ought ot he running for president.” he asserted, “and whst good would It do the people of Gear gla If hg fulfilled every one of such campaign promise!?" He reviewed Hardwick's opposition to the best In tcrests of the state In congress, his op position to the ship purchase hill which would have made it possible to raise the price-of cotton, to the pnr* cels post, the nitrate bill which would have given cheaper munitions to the government to the potash bill which would have given cheaper fertilizer to the farmers. ( Hardwick Is also * nllfer partisan Mr. Holder said, and would be unfair to his enemies. “I’ll treat friends and enemies alike when I ani elected, but If I've any political plums to pass out I'll give them to my friends." Tbe speaker addressed himself to wbat he termed the attempt of “two ersbam. mlghtly moguls In Georgia politics tc order him out of the race.” ■When I heard that Clark Howel and W, T. Anderson had ordered me out of the Mae. i.Mild to. ten them hottr to ho to hell,” declared Mr. TIol der., He Hen proceeded to compare his own record with that of Walker, whom the Consltutlon and Telegraph, fter thorough Investigation, found tc be a stronger man as opponent of . Hardwick than was Holder, "I liovn been serving my state nlno teen years In Senate and House al *200 a year," declared the spaker, 'While Cliff Walker has been holdlnf office for twolve years at an averagi •alary of tt 000 a year." "I'll tend to my Job as governor, II you put me there," be continued "while Just as sure as you elect Cliff Walker governor he’ll start rlghl away running for the Senate." Holder assailed Walker's record as showing not a single ■ constructive thing. He defended Governor Dorsey on the collection of Illegal tobacci •axes In Georgia by blaming his action in the opinion of Mr. Walker. "J would havo collected that tax too, If I had been governor," he said "had the attorney general told mo II was right to do It.” lb connection with the tobasco tax Mr. Holder read a letter purportlni to bo from Mr. Walker to one of the tax collectors In which be said, ac cording to Mr. Holder, that tho Intro ductlon of the tobacco tax argument into tho cumpulgn was hurting his race and asking that It not be used, In connection with bis naniq. Mr. Holder charged that Mr. Wal ker had been nominated for governor by Albert Howell at a barbecue given by Howell In Walker’s honor after Mr. Walker had appointed the firm of Brewster Howell and Heyman as col- 'ectors of the Inheritance tax for Ful ton county. "That's the reason they wanted John Holder to get out of the race so Cliff Walker could have a better bowing,” be said. Mr. Holder derided Walker's splon did campaign against Hardwick. Cliff Wulkcr has been making some wonderrul speechs against Bolshev ism, Mr. Holder said. “I think we ought to send Cliff to Russia as a mis- slonsry to the Bolihevtkl, and send Hardwick with him." Mr. Holder concluded bis address with n i rlunto to the soldiers In the At tho close of the campaign iohn Holder has been making three and four speeches a day end on every oc casion he has appeared as fresh and vigorous ns though It wore at the beginning. Mr. Holder will conclude his cam paign with four speeches In Fulton county Tuesday, where his friends as sert hrt will get It substantial major Ity.

The game was played on a drenebed fluid under a lowering sky, with nono ot the pcp-piojluclug elements that aro the rightful portion of cnamplon- <blp games. Tbe affair nevertheless, was fought with frequent hair raising situations and until tbe very last play, when Washington had loaded the bases and Countryman had re- loved tho weakening Handleman, the income was uncertain. T.io.nson started the fracas by coring one tun on one hit and three errors In the first Inning. The Wash ngton Infield was slowed down by the wetness of (he ground and two errors at shortstop and one at second bass threatened serious damage to tho Washingtonians. Kennedy was out short to first, Doyle filed out to loft. Burke singled to Tight. Harris lammed one through :he grass at KlLg who muffed, Mose- y hit one that Scott failed to handle, "alhoun was safe on King's error and Burke Came home. Scberiing ended he agony by pocketing Werner's By. Thomson scored twice In the third Inning, after having been retired in he second by a pretty double play, O'Neill to Heck to Lassiter. Burke !rew a free past. Harris was safe A Heck’s wild throw, taking second while Burke took third .before Lassl ter rcurned tbe baf to the Infield. Dorsey addressed a crowd that filled the £ot£thouae to overflowing and left many outside. He followed his usual Jlno to the test-charge and while Hoke Smith sat on (he third ro* In front of him, attempting to act amused and grandloaly indifferent, Governor Dorsey called him a squirmer, a wel against Vinson In tha tenth district Governor crushea another attempt to bait him on the draft question. In reply to a demand as to where he had stood on the draft act, with Inference that the governor was afraid to de clare himself, he referred his baiter to the files ot thte Atlanta Georgian wljlch quoted his endorsement of the Set ss a Democratic and necessary measure, and to his record assisting In the enforcement of the tew In Georgia. -The governor took up the canard of the Illegal collection of the tobacco tax and explained that he ordered Its collection on the authority of the at- tornyy general and comptroller gen eral, the -advisory authorities to the governor constituted by tew. My only regret Is that -I could not get more money for the state,” the gov- ernor declared, “but slncpthc taw Is llleg«l, every dollar will be repaid as fast as the treasury can get the money to repay it.' Tho governor cited the fact that tho state was no worse off financially now than ever before In fifteen or cher, a straddler and a do-nothing sen- ■ _vr. ator, aa he has In every previous t **£ r f"”' Whlch " * en * r « n Y known whirli Harks Snored (jKfiOSnraifr-By b»ir*ttO,~®f IffAKiTOry sppltme he hsStefiodlu wnicn »oriro pcoreu. . nr.....

Werner went out Bcolt to Lassiter. .m tho fourth Washington made a nobl* nttempt to come back but the wet field which operated -against her while T iomson was at bat alowed up her baserunners and one run was netted on three hits. Dennis was safe on an Infield hit to third. Handleman nicked him off at second when King groundedgo pitcher. Scott filed out to eft. O'Neill singled to center and Scherllng singled to loft, scoring King. Johnson fanned. In the fifth another run was scored when Brazier led off with a pretty trlpple to left field and came homo when Dennis lifted a sacrifice fly to center. The game Jogged alcn- uneventfully until the ninth inning. Then Thom son went Out when Doyle grounded to second, Burke popped to pitcher, and Harris popped to second. It looked like one-two-three for Washing-, •on when Scott grouttaed to third, and O'Neill filed to rlglt. Then Werner tried a free and asy running catch of a long fly from Scherling's bat. The ball bounced not of his hinds. Jhorburn was sent In to pinch hit for Johnson and flrew a pass. Handleman seemed to weak en and passed Braxler, loading the bases. Countryman was called out from the bench and took the mound without wurmlng up. He fed Heck •hree balls before the speedy third baseman found one to his Uklng. It sailed out into right field for an easy catch by Calhoun and the gamo was over. If Thomson wins today the will Host the pennant of the Mllion Dollar League. Washington has had -covet ous eyes on the rag for weeks and no Intention bf giving It qp without a struggle. The game will he called at the usual hour, 4 o'clock, for -a bat tle royal. If Washington wins the final contest will bo staged Monday. ■WASHINGTON— , Ab. R. H. Po. A. E. speech. Tbe governor reviewed 'the senator's record In every phase and drew repeated applause. In getting up to make his reply, Senator Smith declared thet he would not deal with opponents, although Gov ernor Dorsey had .been forced to leave In order to fill an engagement In Monroe and the Senator bad nbthlng to fear In way of reply except the scathing blast of unanswerable argu ment that continued to surge In tbe minds of bis hearers even after he had left and Senator Smith ariose to deliver his much touted "answfar. Apparently Senator Smith was not himself the originator of the chal lenge to divide time with Governor Dorsey because he did not avail him self ot the opportunity he had been given. He made the mildest speech ot his campaign, according to people here who had heard previous speeches and did not touch on his usual line of stuck on tbe governor, who bad assail ad him fearlessly to bis face.

Governor Dorsey reviewed Otnatoi Smith's record In detalL "Senator Smith claims credit for the vocational education, bill and for the cotton future bill," he said, "as a mat- etr of fact be had nothing to do with either one of them.' Senator Smith at this Juncture illade the only audiblei remark uttered .dur ing the governor’s vehement atUck upon him. The Senator ejaculated Goad Lord.” Tbe governor continued to expose the Senator’s claim that he htd got tbe Federal Reserve bank branch for Atlanta. He explained that Atlanta, as the' commercial Industrial, and financial center feMSSha, Southeast was the only'logicalVplace,tor the bank and that pollUei had not enter ed into the placing of any of them that, In a word, thebanks' were not handed around as political plums The governor ridiculed Smith’s claim (or gettng army camps for Georgia.
