FALLING IN LINE AS THE TIME DRAWS NEAR FORMER POPULIST SUPPORTING WILSON Evidence that the Populists of Georgia who have come back into the Democratic party, consider them selves in honor bound to support the nominee of the Democracy for presi dent, after having participated in the state primary, is voiced by those for mer Populist leaders who fought its hardest battles Hon. , Seabrrn Wright of Rome, Hon. W. L. Peek of Conyers and Judges James K. Hines of Atlanta. “I shall most certainly vote for Woodrow Wilson for president,” said Judge Hines, in discussing his atti tude, “and I consider that every man who participated in the Georgia pres idential primary, is in honor bound to support the nominee of the party. “Before the primary I was an Un derwood man, and if Underwood had won, we would have had the right to expect the Wilson men to support him. I am glad to note that, with small exception, the Underwood men are standing solidly by the nominee. “Besides, Wilson is a good man, a capable man, and will make a splen did president. He is one of the fore most among our progressive leaders, has a good progressive platform back of him and I am confident he is going to win. Then, too, he is a Southern man and married a Georgia woman; so there is every reason why Geor gians and Southerners generally should strongly and cordially support him,.” Executor’s Sale.
