tion, Carried Warm Res¬
olutions From Here.

meeting held in the court house
here, condemning Mr. Duckworth,
the piesident of the state Union,
for the stand be has been taking in
the present gubernatorial campaign
It is claimed by the Union here
that Mr. Duckworth is trying to
pull the Union into politics, and
that his lecent card-writing in the
daily papers has a tendency to
v.ause the I nion to lose its prestige
to a certain extent. And this pa
per believes his action should be
condemned by the members of
this organization.

Fully two hundred members, be.
sides a number of the citizens of
the city and countv were present,
and Mr. Joidan’e address was re
ceivtd with the closest attention.
Mr. Jordan’s talk was mainly
in answer to the many accusa¬
tions credited to Governor Smith’s
administration. He sighted °the the
laboring men as to bow corpo
rations were trying to use them
for tools to defeat Hoke Smith for
governor, and fully convinced ev
ery one present that the present
Governor of Georgia was th-'ir
friend, He showed the
up iu their present attitude in this
campaign; their methods being
used to defeat Hoke Smith, be

ments safer in Georgia and
South than ever before; that no:
legislation enacted was in the least
detrimeula 1 to capital, but on the
contrary, every act and

Mr - Jordan i^duige 1 in no per- j
sonalities, but gave a logical pre
sentation of fi:is showing the re
newal of great industrial activity,
and proved why the business
and the working man should
port Hoke Smith.
He showed up the utter hypoc
