ITCKOSS JOCBXAL. rRin.tr, no. 7, wit. iy Warren Grice Asks You to Continue Him As Attorney General V/irren Grice To (fie People of Georgia: I have been serving as Attorney General since April 15th, filling an unex pired term. In order, faithfully, to discharge my official duties I have been unable to make a personal canvass of the State. I prefer to remain at my post rather than to seek to fur ther my political interests by making a hand-shaking tour tf the State, to the neglect of my duties in this office. Since leaving Mercer Uni versity 20 years ago, I have been engaged in the active practice of law. I ask your support on my record as a law’-i,-, and on my record as Attorney General. The duties of this office are unusually important The Attorney General not only has to represent the State in all murder cases before the Supreme Court, but he is also charged with the care and responsibility of guarding the interests of the State, in various tax cases before the United States courts, and in winding up insolvent banks and insurance companies. The duties formerly devolving upon a specal attorney for the Western * Atlantic Railroad are now by law added to this office, and upon your Attorney General devolves the protection of the State’s interest in this great prop erty. Almost daily he is called upon to render opinions on important questions of State to the Governor and other State House officers. From this you see the im portance of this office, with the duties of which I have now become thoroughly familiar. If, upon investiga tion of my .record, you believe me worthy and qualified to discharge these duties, I will gratefully appreciate your endorsement at the polls. w.v WARREN GRICE (GEORGIA SCHOOL OF TECHNOLOGY, Atlanta, Ga.

Aug. 3—The corridors of the state capitol are gloomy today ami the hulls are deserted except for the Janitors. Members of house and senate, with a holiday ahead and no barbecue on the program, left last night for their homes to kiss the ba bies, do a little hand-shaking and fix up their fences for re-election.

But the war would not stop with Russia, Austria, Germany, Great Bri tain, France and Servla. France hav ing been drawn Into the struggle part ly because of her hatred for Germany over the Franco-Prusslan war and the seizure of Alsace and Loralne, and partly because the la a member of the Triple Entente, probably would take Belgium In with her. Belgium haa no mark, love for Austria and Germany and she la quite closely allied to France In many waya. Spain probably would remain neutral. Greece already has signified her readiness to aid Servla and Montenegro. Turkey baa indicat ed a desire to remain neutral, but It Is doubtful If it would be possible for her to do so. She probably would have to ally herself with the Triple Alliance for her own protection against Greece and the Balkan nations, which would not miss the opportunity to attack their old enemy.

This would bring Roumtnla Into ths con flict, as Roumtnla has several dlttle 'difficulties resulting from the Balkan wars which she would like to settle with Bulgaria. While all of these lit tle nations would be of some aid to the great European alliances, they scarcely can be figured upon as seri ous considerations. While their ar mies are composed almost wholly of Veterans of the Turkish and Balkan wars, it also must be realised that they have suffered greatly from these wars and have not bad opportunity to even partially recover before being plung ed Into another great conflict.

Thurs day Way crons opens a three game se ries at Cordele. The team is badly crippled Just now because of an Injury received by Mc Coy yesterday at Brunswick. He was spiked while taking a throw to home plate to catch a Brunswick player and may be kept out of the game a week. Shuman, In the last of the second game, was also pain fully Injured when he was struck by a ball. Reynolds, of the Brunswick team, was painfully spiked at the home plate during the game, making the day anything but pleasant for the catchers. McCoy returned to Wsycross this morning. McFarland went down this morning to work In one of the two games scheduled this afternoon, had Intended remaining here and working In the opener Monday. A crowd that was estimated as be ing three times as large crowd that attended the Hardwick meeting two Saturduy nights ago turned out last Saturday night hear Hon. John Clay Smith of Atlan ta speak in the interest of Hon. John M. Slaton's candidacy for the short term U. 8. senatorship. Notwithstanding the fact that Mr. Hardwick, the candidate himself, spoke at his meeting two weeks ugo. while a man Just Interested In the campaign of Mr. Slaton’s spoke for him yet the Sluton meeting outnum bered the Hardwick meeting In at tendance three to one. The Slaton spanking took place at the Bund Stand in Beauty Park, and happened that there was so much noise made by trains and pass ing automobiles, drays ami hacks that the great crowd of voters who turned out to hear Mr. 8mith could not do so with any degree of satis faction. Mr. T. G. Hilliard opened the meet Ing by telling the voters of Waycross that he had been In three of the larg est country precincts In the county and spoke for Gov. Slaton, and that In all three of these precincts Slaton Is the winner by 2 to 1 against th» field. Mr. Hilliard told hotf In previous campaigns he had spoken his throat and lungs sore for Senator Hoke Smith, and that tho talk that a man not support llokc Smith and Jack Sluton for U. S. senator Is noth ing hut political rot to which no one pays any attention. After speaking four years ago when he rpokc fo;* Hoke Smith for Governor, and l.uwr he at that time fell in love wt!h South Georg a and that he guessed he would never be satisfied until he comes to ii\e here. Mr. Smith said, "Four years ago I came to Waycross to ask you to sup port the Hon. Hoke Smith for gov ernor of Georgia. You were wise enough to see things us I did In tliut campaign, and help elect the bigj^st governor Georgln has ever had, and thereby sent to the greatest law mak ing body In the world one of the greatest men not only of Ceorgiu, not only of the South, hut of the l'lilted States. Tonight I return to you und ask that you send to the Senate ,t man big enough, and gnat enough to make a sultuble partner tar Sen ator Hoke Smith." "Georgia can not afford." said Mr. Smith, “to send to the U. S. Senate as a companion of Senator lloke Smith either of the candidates for the short term excepting Gov. Slaton. Gov. Slaton Is no political tomtit, but a man who compares favorably with Georgia's other senator In both av- ordupols and brains." "All over the state." said Mr. Hmith, “thousands of the leading cit izens who want to see Georgia prop erly represented In the senate are aiipportlng Hoke Smith and Jack Slaton regardless of this old tommy- rot of the past ‘Little Joe.'" On account of tho great noise and confusion Mr. Smith did not make as long an address us he expected to. ubout 3o minutes Mr. Hilliard Intro-.The speaking he did was under great duced Mr. John Clay Smith of At- difficulty but the order of the crowd loot*- 1 J Indicated that 90 per cent of tho Mr. Smith started his talk by re- men present were supporters of Gov. minding the people of his visit here Slaton.
