£ Policies In Able Speech
Hon. Joe Hill Hall Speaks Before
Big Gathering In this City this
Morning—Speaks Again To
night At 8 O’Clock.
Following each mftve by former gov
ernor Hoke Smith and showing how
credit was claimed where credit was
not, or where it belonged to others.
Hon. Joe Hill Hall addresed a gath
ering of citizens of' WaycrosH and
Ware county in "Joe Brown Park"
this morning. About 500 voters heard
the address. \
In the course of his adrress Hon.
Joe Hill Hall flayed Hoke Smith and
his "progressive democracy" In no
uncertain terms. He said it was
mighty cheap politics to Jump on the
negro,i In the course of his remarks
on tbe legistration law. He said tho
negro had not been voting, and that
to get at the negro the people were
shackling themselves with laws.
Referring to the tax on dogs, Mr.
Hall said the law was aimed at the
negro but hit the white man. ’’I said
at the time that any man who voted
for u tax on dogs would never again
be heard of in politics," said he. *T
voted ogalnst It. I’m In favor of the
dog, because while be hasn’t any vot-
state road within five years of it
should he extendcf, he said: ‘That’s
constructive statesmanship for you,
Isn't It? Constructive like the devil.
And then your common school system.
That’s a great humbug."
Too many tax bills was an argument
he used, referring to the 25ccnt tax
o n fertilizers, which farmers would
have had to pay. He said he was even
opposed to the present tax o n guano.
"Ive been In the legllature twelve
years, and they have run those tax
leasurcB over mo like a steam roller
every time," he said. "I’d like lo be
governor Just two years nnd run it
over them.”

HAVE SPEAKING DATES.
Amerlcus; Ga„ $Aug. 12—Politics In
Sumter county Is'rapIlUy warming up.
Tomorrow J. E. T. Bowden of Way-
cross speaks here in behalf of ex-Gov.
Smith. On ,Monday Judge Callaway of
Augusta speaks for Brown, and ou
next Saturday Joe Hill Hall of Macon
will nddresB the Brown club and citi
zens generally.
The Smith club Is seeking a speech
from ex-Gov. Smith before the cam
paign closes. The contest is a close
one, and although Gov. Smith carried
the county two years ago, by a great
ly reduced majority, it is an open
question as to whether his friends
can land it for him this year!
A stiff fight Is also on between Col.
J. E. Shepard, former representative,
and Col. Jeff Taylor for the senator-
ship, with the result in doubt. Shep-
the governor had never been dono a
greater injustice by any man than by
Hoke Slmth in hiB remarks on the re
fusal of Brown to purchase tho Chat
tanooga terminals for the state road.
"All Brown said about the terminals
being unfit for use wns true. Hobo
Smith has hit at the state road in
every manner possible. Last night he

sATs
the registration bill by which white
men had been disfranchised and ne
groes enfranchised was a disgrace to
the state.
'Hoke says he' done all that's been
done," continued Hall. "The lobbyists
were out before he became governor.
Were it not ear he would not have been
a candidate.
I claim as much credit as anyon*
for puttng them out. He grabbed from
us our ung of principles, and said
•follow me’." ,
I did not do it because I knew he
would sacrifice them for selfish pur
poses.
"But be took it, and led you to
Hades within two years.
"Hoke says Governor Brown sent
troops to Durham mines to settle a
row between capital and labor. He
knows this is not so, and a' man who
will be so unfair to a governor is not
the man worthy to be your governor.
Hoke cays, in talking of the fight on
the convict lease system, that the
fight was a hard one. It waa, started
before Hoke waa governor, and I apd
the man you heard here last night Jed
the fight. Hoke’ statements about the
treasury are misleading. There hasn’t
been a surplus In twelve years. What
Joe Brown tells about it it true. The
truth In this oose may be slander, to
Hoke Smith, for be saya Brown bat
slandered the treasury. * ^
"Hoke Is so erratic, so desperate,
that no man knows what he may do.
He's one, thing today, another topior- i
