Hammond, suffragist leaders, demand

JORITY IN RECENT ELECTION.
Marietta, Ga., Oct. 14.-—Governor-
IClect Joseph M. Brown today issued a
’.otter to tho people of Georgia thank
ing them for the magnificent majority
accorded his candidacy in tho recent

follows:
To the People of Georgia! It is my
pleasure, as it is my duly, to express
my profound thanks for tho exalted
honor which you, by your suffrages,
conferred upon me, tho Democratic
nominee for governor, October 7.
This honor is established as being
well nigh supreme, when it is borne,
in mind that democrats, populists and
republicans joined in the vote which
spoke the mandate of our state. Hence
to the citizens of all parties who vot
ed for mo in the white primary; to
those who supported my distinguished
opponent in that primary, and who,
later obeyed the dictates of honor with
the behest of the primary, and- to all
other voters who cast their Initial bal
lots for me in the election, I will say
that in the administration of the high
office to which you have called me,
shall know no faction, no party. And
shall look not with favor
nor with prejudice upon any
class. “Equal rights to all, special
privileges to none,J special burdens
upon none," shall he my guiding mot
to.
-Recognizing that the will of the peo
ple, as embodied in tho statue law,
rule of action, I shall enforce that
will by the orderly methods it pre
scribes.; Recognizing that reason
j welds Together while’ denunciation
I drives asunder, I shall pursue that
'■ course which my Judgment teaches
me tends to securing a united citizen-
(ry. And let me urge you, my fellow
citizens, to join me in the resolutions
