fours very truly,
becomes inoperative in North Carolina
in 1908, just a year and a half. If It
was such a good thing, why was It not
kept? Because they knew it was a
, f raud and let it go out of existence be
fore it could be tested in the courts.
After 1908, North Carolina would be or
an educational basis, pure and simple
As an instance of the possibility fo:
evil when election registrars were em
[lowered to pass upon the rights of sul
frage, the case of Rev. T. J. Jones, a
Presbyterian minister of Virginia and a
gruduate of Washington and Lee Uni
versity, who was refused the right to
register by a partisan board because he
could not answer certain trick questions
few men but a lawyer knew the answer
to, was given.
South Carolina had a combined edu
cational and property qualification, re
quiring an uneducated voter to own
$300 worth of property, which had taken
the ballot from one-third of its white
citizens.
Of Alabama’s law, it was sufficient to
say that the first man in Tuskeegee to
register thereunder was Booker Wash
ington, who now holds a life certificate.
Here a voice from the audience ex
claimed, “Shame on my old state!”
Mr. Howell continued that it had been
admitted that the only way to prevent
negroes registering in Alabama was by
fraudulent administration of the law.
The golden feature of our government
lay in the fair and impartial adminis
tration of the law. Depart from it,
and no man’s life or property was safe.
In Louisiana, under eight years of
“disfranchisement” law every year the
negro vote had steadily increased and
the white vote steadily decreased. Now,
Louisiana was enacting a law legalizing
the white primary.
Seven years ago, in the Georgia leg
islature, the disfranchisement measure
received 14 votes out of a total of 176;
three years ago it received 3 votes out
of 176. Not one of these votes came
from the southern section of the state.
The “disfranchisement” agitation
was demoralizing labor conditions,
which were already bad enough.
In his Douglassville speech, four
years ago, Mr. Watson said, “The
white man who, for selfish ends, seeks
to array class against class or race
against race, is an infernal coward.”
Mr. Howell liked Watson personally,
although politically he had opposed him
for fifteen years. Referring to tKe
“Dear Tom” letters he read one from
Mr. Watson calling him “Dear Clark,”
to show the expression was a common
one between them, as they had passed
probably 100 letters. In response to
inquiry from the audience, the date of
the Watson letter was given. He would
have been glad to have had the support
of Mr’Watson or of any other man’who
came into the primary and^voted^ as a
democrat. As a reply to Mr. SmitTTj
e “Dear Judge” letter was read.
OrTthe railroad question, Mr?"Howell
said he had not one penny’s interest in
any railroad in the world and no__rail
road had a penny’s interest in him
Throughout a public career of twenty
years, he challenged his detractors to
show a single instance in which his vote
had not been cast in the interest of the
people, regardless of any corporation
combination of capital. He had left the
chair to urge the passage of the fran
chise tax bill, and as chairman of the
railroad committee of the housejhad
worked for the Glenn bill, which had
turned $15,000,000 taxes over to tl
counties of the state. His last service
in behnlf of the people had been the
passage, through the senate, of the
railroad car equipment bill, in the in
terest of the south Georgia lumbermen.
The two first measures had turned more
money into the pocketstof the tax pay
ers than all other railroad legislation in
the state combined. In this work Mr.
Smith ought to have helped, yet he
could not produce a single word or line
showing he had done so.
Opponents were going up and down
the state crying “Nigger! Nigger!”
“Railroads!” yet could not lay their
fingers on a single specification or one
vote against the people out of the thous
and he had cast.
Mr. Howell-had never represented a
railroad; had never received a fee from
; yet he did not blame lawyers who
did represent them or even borrowed
money on the endorsement of their
president—it was purely a ( business
transaction, as Mr. Smith had said.
It was not long since Mr. Smith was
using both free passes and private cars,
yet now he said that a man who used
them was dishonest. Mr,' Howell used
neither, yet he believed in the honesty
of his fellow-man.
Hon. Warner HIM was a man of sterl
ing integrity ant) upright character.
The attacks upon him had been infa
mous, malicious and unjust.
Some freight rates were probably too
high, and some discriminations exist
Two years ago Atlanta business men
organized to protect against a discrim
ination, but when Mr. Smith went up
to make the fight against the roads, he
went as a paid attorney, with $100 of
Mr. Howell's money in ms pocket
Railroads were needed to encourage
and further development, and no sec
tions needed them more than this. We
had not begun to grow yet What we
wanted to say to foreign capital was
not to forbid its investment but “Come I
h#o our midst; we will treat you fairly
and honestly, and give you a reasona
ble return for your money; but should
you attempt to discriminate or oppress,
the strong arm of the law will inter
vene*
Smith's Madison speech, proposing to
drive foreign capital out of the state,
was quoted. Tift county would be one
of the worst hurt by such a policy of
proscription.
Referring to the questioned author-
ihip of a campaign circular concerning
Mr. Smith's negro appointments, Mr,
Howell saffi his name was signed to it
in letters an Inch deep, and he assumed
the entire responsibility.
Mr. Howell invited questions and in
quiries. He wanted to get at the truth.
There was only one question, and this
was readily answered. As instances of
states dissatisfied with their disfran
chisement laws, Mississippi and Louis
iana were cited.
There waa nothing tp sustain the
wholesale charges against the state
courts, administration and officers, not
one of which charges were specific.
Last year an investigating committee,
with J. H. Hall as chairman, had spent
six months with an expert accountant,
investigating the state's officials and
affairs, and instead of finding one thing
wrong had paid great tributes to their
honesty and efficiency. Our tax rate is
the lowest of any state in the south,
after supporting our blind, deaf and
dumb and other asylums, and our treas
ury is in the best condition. Our state
property, if sold, would pay its bonded
indebtedness and leave $4,000,000 in the
treasury. We paid $2,000,000 to public
schools and $910,000 to old soldiers and
widows while North Carolina, set up to
us as an example, only paid them $275,
000. Georgia paid its veterans and
widows more than all the “disfran
chisement” states combined.
If things are so badly wrong with us,
how is it the whole civilized world points
to Georgia as the Empire state of the
South?
Don’t let our new county begin by
pulling down. Help to build up. Be
lieve in. the honesty of your/ellow-man;
don’t believe he is anything but fair and
just until you are shown the proof. Mr.
Howell had always followed Mr. Gra
dy’injunction: ~
Do all you can to
build up your state; there will be plenty
of men who will want to tear down.”
f Mr. Howell was^given quite
tion at the close of his speech. He
spent the afternoon in Tifton, receiving
the greeting of many friends and meet
ing new ones.
Two Bottles Cured Him.
“I was troubled with kidney com
plaint for about two years/' write*
A. H. Davis, of ML Sterling, la.,
but two bottles of Foley’s Kidney
Cure effected a permanent cure.”

• Board of Trade fleeting. :
The Board of Trade met in called ses
sion June 26th, and both the president
and vice-president being absent, Mr.
Jno. T. Mathis was called to thy chair.
Not being a regular meeting, the min
utes of the preceding meeting were
not read and the regular order of busi
ness was suspended.
Col. Fulwood stated that this being
the first year for Tift county, and Tift
county having no representative in the
state legislature tor this term, he be
lieved that it would be wise for the
Board of Trade, acting in the interest
of Tifton and Tift county, to send an
accredited representative to Atlanta to
look after local legislation and Jceep
track of what was being done there.
Certain measures are likely to come be
fore the assembly at this term that are
as important tc Tift county as was the
enactment of the law creating the
county, and vital to the welfare of the
county. It would seem wise to have an
accredited 1 representative there on the
ground; to give special attention £to
these matters.
This, meeting with the approval of
the Board, Col. EJve made a motion that
the Board appoint its president, Mr. J,
L. Herring, as an accredited represen
tative of the county of Tift, and that
he be authorized to spend as much time
as he deemed necessary in Atlanta look
ing after the interests of the county
during this session of the assembly,
and that he be authorized to appoint his
own alternate when unable to attend
himself. The motion was seconded and
carried.
Mr. Banks moved that the "represen
tative be allowed his mileage£and $6
per day for the time spent in Atlanta.
Seconded by Prof. Scarboro and carried.
There belng.no further business, the
Board adjourned to meet July 6th.

On Behalf of Col. Cstill.
Sparks, Ga, June 28.—Two large
meetings of democratic voters in the
interest of Col. J. H. Estill, were
hold in Berrien county today, one at
Nashville and one at Sparks. They
wore addressed by Mr. Thos. S.
Morgan.
gjThere was much disappointment
and regret that Col. Estill ’was pre
vented from being present. At Fitz
gerald this morning, just as he was
about to board a tram for Berrien
county, he was handed a dispatch
which contained the sad intelligence
that his brother, Wm s Estill, was
not expected to live through the
day. This changed the Colonel’s
plans, and he departed for home on
the first train over the Seaboard Air
Line.
_ le the trade; and it wouldn’t hurt
your whole business.
Devoe is like that among paints; it is
twice as sweet as some; it is sweeter
than any; not one exception; one gallon
is two or one-and-a-half or one-and-
three-quarters.
Better than that: paint has to be
painted; that costs $2 to $4 a gallon. A
illon saved is $2 to $4 saved in labor,
•sides the paint.
Even that isn't all. A gallon Devoe
put-on wears as long as two gallons-
put-on at a cost of $2 to $4 a gallon and
two gallons more put-on at $2 to $4 a
gallon. Count all that. The paint that
wears double costa less by 3 gallons of
paint and 3 gallons of painting; that’s
about $15 a gallon for those superfluous
gallons. SmUi
That’s as good as a double-sweet su
gar, isn’t it? Yours truly,
