cleverly stated his position on the
issues of the campaign and left’ no
doubt In the minds of those who heard
him as to just where he stood on all
important matters affecting the inter
ests of the people of Waycross. Mr.
Reed had tho closest attention of his

they conscientiously believed any of

mayor than Jie would, lo cast their
bullots for the other, fellow.

Brown's candidacy for -governor was
launched yesterday afternoon at
Jonesboro when a number of ’’Little
Joe's" Atlanta supporters, us well as
several Jonesboro men, spoke ia favor
of his campaign. To say that tho
speeches were enthusiastically receiv
ed is*putting it mildly. When J. R.
Smith, manager of the 1908 and 1910
Brown campaigns, and 11. II. Cuba-
nlcs, former business associate and
always a warm supporter of Holes
Smith, glowingly commended Joe
Brown had spoke for tho present gub
ernatorial race, they were received
with prolonged cheers that increased
in volume as tho speakers waxed elo
quent.
Tho remarkablo part of the entire
program was tho noticeable lack of
ill feeling between the adherents ot
the vurious candidates, and the warm
manner in which every mention ot
Joseph Al. Brown was received.
No III Feeling Shown.
In no singlo Instance throughout
the course of the speeches did Ill-
feeling toward anyone enter the pro
