BITTER CAMPAIGN
COMES TO CLOSE
Many Expect Run-Over
For Governor and
Senator

solutely certain of the prevailing im-|
pression of the senator’s superior
strength that we unhesitatingly rec-!
ommend this test for the doubtful!
Democrat who has not yet decided i
how he shall vote.”
STAND FIRM, IS FINAL
DORSEY APPEAL.
ATLANTA, Sept 7.—Governor
Dorsey’s headquarters today issued j
the following election-eve statement:
“Not since the campaign opened
have the letters and telegrams receiv-l
ed by us indicated *so overwhelmingly |
the lead that Governor Dorsey hasl
in the senate race as they have to-1
day. We are assured that the gov- 1
ernor, backed by the loyal democ- 1
racy of the state, will sweep Georgia
from the mountains to the sea on
Wednesday.
“The canard that the Smith forces :
attempted to pull in Wilkes county
by making it appear that the Dorsey I
forces had delivered themselves into I
Smith’s hands has reacted al lover the I
state. It has not only strengthened !
the governor in Wilkes county, but
all over Georgia.
“The people are realizing that
there is only one loyal Democrat run-!
ning for the senate who has any hope
of carrying the state. The effort
of the Smith forces to effect a com
bination with the Dorsey men in
counties where Watson is strong and
with the Watson men in counties
where Dorsey is strong has been
shown up for what it is—the most
unprincipled piece of politics ever
undertaken to be pulled off in Geor
gia. <
“The word from headquarters is
for all Dorsey men to stand firm
to the faith and vote for the gov-

X 4 ) "Alling his (
ernor in their county, regardless
of what the local result may be. We
have every assurance that the loyal
Democrats are in the majority in
Georgia, and that Dorsey is winning
all over the state.
“it is not to be denied that Sena
tor Smith is distributing the largest
‘Slush’ fund ever cast at the voters
of Georgia. Reports are reaching us
from dozens of counties of the use
of money as a last desperate resort
of that faction to keep the senator
from running third in the race. They
themselves have no hope whatever
of taking the lead, and they are now
making a final effort of despair to
put the senator in the race for a
runover primary.
“Dorseys headquarters are watch
ing this use of money with a most
scrutinizing eye, and will track down
any funds used for illegitimate pur
poses.” .
WATSON TAKES FINAL
SHOT AT RIVALS
Thomas E Watson issued his final
statement and appeal to the voters
of the state today in the Atlanta
Georgia, the only daily newspaper in
Georgia supporting him. This state
ment, too long for publication in full
follows in part:
“ To My Fellow Citizens of Geor
gia:
“I am asking you to send me—a
native Georgian—to fight for your
independence in the Senate of the
United States.
“Almost providentially a sequence
of events drew me into this race, at
a time when I had no thought of
ever again asking you to" vote for
me.
“Last April Senator Reed was the
straight-out opponent of the league
to whom I was throwing all my sup
port.
“Unfortunately he came to Atlanta ;
once too often; without consultation,
with those of us who were commit
ted to his support and who would '
have fought his battles to the very
end, he fell into the toils of Hoke
Smith, and was beguiled into retiring !
from the presidential race.
“The great humbug and consum
mate hypocrite, Hoke Smith, believed
that with Senator Reed out of the i
race he would have a grand, Rocky !
Mountain straddle over the state of
Georgia on the question of the i
league.
“To my utter astonishment and ,
bitter revret, the brilliant senatorl
from Missouri was overpersuaded by-
Hoke Smith, and he quit the race in
Georgia.
“There were only a few* hours for
anyone else to enter, but during
those hours I entered and put up
$15,000 in the Atlanta National
Bank to pay the expenses of giving
all the neople of Georgia chance to
‘vote upon w’hether they would de- I
liver to England the independence
which the sword of George Washing
ton had won from her. Therefore, we
had the three-cornered race, in April
and the colossal humbug, Hoke Smith
ran third.
“He did not then, as he does not
now, know how he stood on the
league, consequently the chronic
straddler got left, there being no ■
possible middle ground toward the
surrender of independence or the
maintenance of it.
“As to Dorsey, he stands for Dor-1

ed on time.
“The Georgia boys were left per-!
ish in all the camps mainly because!
of the pusillanimous cowardice of ;
Hugh Dorsey, governor of Georgia—;
a man who hasn’t got the decency
to resign the office of governor while
he runs for the office of senator.
“In his recent speeches in the Mil-i
len territory, Dorsey has been repre
sented by the Howells as having cre
ated a whirlwind of enthusiasm in
that section of the state.
I have constructed many things in
my life, and some of them I am
proud of; but in the construction of
Hugh Dorsey as governor of this
state, I did a thing of which I am
thoroughly ashamed.
The man is full of perfidy; he
bulges with ingratitude; in his veins
there lurgs the poison of a'moccasin.
“He virtually gave away our state
railroad to his clients, the Louisville ‘
and Nashville He 'was
afraid to enforce the Veazey lay.
“He surrendered to the Catholic
schoolbook turst, which still forces
into our public schools a sorrupted
series of histories and readers.
“He kicked out of the state’s serv
ice a better man than himself, Frank
Grant, and insultingly gave this ex-
Confederate hero’s job to an Atlanta
negro loafer, who was an expert at
licking the shoes of Hugh Dorsey and
the Howell brothers.
“Like Smith, Dorsey fail to state
what he will try to do if he gets to
the senate.”
