Issues Statement Giving
Reasons For Not En
tering the Race.
Atlanta, Ga„ May 14.—Hon. Hoke
Smitli will not be a candidate for gov
ernor. He gave out the following
statement this afternoon at 1 o'clock:
"During the past two weeks I have
received requests in various forms all
urging me to enter the race for gov
ernor. and convincing me that an ex
tended movement had begun to cause
my candidacy for that office.
“Millie I deeply appreciate the pur
pose of those engaged In this move
ment, I cannot see my way clear at
this time to become a candidate and I
-.vk h to spare them useless trouble.
"But for the conviction that certain
legislation then in the public mind
ms absolvtely necessary, 1 wculd nit
have emend the first race The see.
mid, race Avar precipitated before 1
had been in office nine months and 1
■entered 'l from a sense ot duty.
“Before the close ot my two years
as governor the important measures
for which the -contest of 1906 was
made had been accomplished, and the
principals embodied in that will
main the policy sf the state.
"If my individual preference alone
s were Involved 1 would yield the mall
without hesitation, and comply with
any call usule upon me by that splen
did body of mon who stood together
so loyally in 19W and again in 1907
for the reforms in question, and who
went down with ne in the last elec
tion, before the forces of opposition
which I do not believe can again be
combined.
"But there are other reasons of a
personal nature which prevent my en
tering a heated political contest at
the present tr'me. While I cannot now
consent to enter the race for governor
1 wish to assure my friends hod fellow
cltlzons of the regret it causes me not
to comply with their wishes, and of
my readiness, out of office, to serve
them in any way possible. I shall he
ready .at all times to take part in the
Bupiiort of measures which wfU pro
mote good government whenever and
wherever the opportunity Is gives.”

FOUR MORE CAROLINIANS
LOOKING FOR FARMS.
Spent Yesterday Going Over
Sunter County.
Another party of South Caroliuiaus
spent yesterday here, looking over the
farm lands of Sumter county with
view to investing in them, either for
the purpose of making a home on the
broad and fruitful acres they con
template purchasing, or with the
view of securing handsome returns
from the money placed in Georgia dirt
hereabouts.
In tbo party were Messrs. J. B.
.light, of Pelzer, W. M. Knight, of
Laurens, J. T. Arnold, of Greenville,
and J. W. Hooper, of Seneca. Mr.
Negro Murderer Hanged
For Crime Committed
Near Americus,
With steady step, and loudly sing
ing his favorite tymn, Henry Patter
son, alone and unassisted, ascended
the gallows through which his body
shot to death ten minutes later for
the crime he commuted here Just
one year ago, the murder of Captain
W. F. McRae.
There wa3 not a quiver or expres
sion ' of fear, and in a few minutes
the legal tragedy was ended and the
majesty of the law upheld.
Patterson was banged at 11:31
o’clock. His neck was broken by the
fall and death, therefore, instantan
eous. The jail officials, physicians,
two colored ministers and a few guarJs
assisting witnessed the execution.
Patterson's brother stood at the foot
of the gallows and witnessed the sad
tragedy.
For nearly an hour before he was
executed the condemned negro talk
ed with his spl-itual advisers, and
to Us brother gave minute directions
as to the funeral. His great desire
seemed to be that- his body be en
cased in a fine coffin, and of this he
was assured.
Patterson said nothing of the mur
der he committed, only that be still
clung to the statement' previously
made in his trial.
He asked that the cloth be removed
from his blind eyes a~:r his death
and replaoed with his epectacles. His
photograph was taken on the gallows
steps.
HU daughter was admitted to bid
him farewell as he eat upon the
steps of the gallows, hut the woman
was frightened into spasms liy ’ the
scene end ran shrieking into the
streets. 1
There was no motion of the body
after the trap was sprung and the
fearful ordeal soon ended. As Patter
son walked up the steps others the
noose dangled he sang loudly, all the
other prisoners in the cages beneath
taking up the refrain and singing in
chorus.
After the physicians pronounced
Mm dead the body was cut down and
will be burled today.
The crime for which Patterson died
yesterday was the brutal murder or
Captain XV. F. McRae, superintendent
of the Bagley-Ray Orchard Co., here,
in June last. The dead body of CapL
.McRae was discovered next morning
fn the peach or shard about fifty yards
from Patterson's bouse.
The lower court and Supreme
alike passed upon his case, and the
governor and prison commission sus
tained the verdict.
