ftoscue Luke Out
With Platform
Thomasville, Ga., -lune 24.—
i .oscue Luke when seer, this after¬
oo n in regard to his prospective
amlidacy for governor, gave out
; .ie following interview-
“It cannot be said with any
rcrtainty that there will be a va-
ancy in the governor’s office be-
>re the end of Governor Smith’s
term. I do not want to be placed
n the attitude of seeking office
o.o a contingency.
“Whether there is a vacancy
tr not I shall try and invoke en¬
thusiasm enough to induce the
legislature, which is soon to con¬
vene, to enact into law measures
>r which I stand, and which will
mrve to make more economical
me administration of the affairs
of state. We should have bi-en-
■al sessions of the legislature; we
(o not need more than three
lembers of the railroad commis-
:on, and there ceitainly can be
! 0 need of a special attorney for
Inis body the attorney-general
£ hould perform this service.
“The legislature could perform
1.0 greater service for the people
tnan by enacting into law the
rinciple of e ual taxation as 1
s
dvoeate it in my platform. I
I ave never heard of this law be¬
ing prescribed for this evil which
it will cure, but I do know that
will come nearer making more
■ qual the burdens of the revenue
of government than any proposed
• .‘medy- You well know that I ad-
vocated from, the stump for more
than two year- the principle-of
uniformity of ehool books, prin -1
i ;d and sold f y the state at cost,
I. believe the., should be furnish¬
ed free as seen as that becomes
possible. the
i< The need, for regulating
charges of the express coihpany
is present and this company
mould not be further permitted j
to dig us. They get just as much
f or handli ig a package one time
and carrying • on somebody else’s
railroad twelve miles as they do
for handling the samelJpackage
.everal times and hauling it 300
miles.
IS SIGNED B" THE “COMMITEE.”
“I do not know whether I can
;o to Atlanta during the session
of the legislature or not: 1 am
very busy trying to make a liv-
Ulg. I am not favored with
enough of this world's goods to
Tuit my business and make an
active canvass for the office of
governor. Seme time, however,
when I realize that an ambition
to hold the office of governor is
.mothered by the bosses, or rath¬
er the committee who arrogate
to themselves the right to select
L he few who shall offer them-
elves as candidates, 1 am almost
constrained to announce and trust
to providence and the patriotism
of the free man who casts a bal¬
lot free frert the influence of the
“committ ' rank or station of
ny man
“IoeeiL : - very different atti-
nde from s me of the other gen-
iemen who are being mentioned
or the office; 1 have never been
favored v-it. the counsel of the
oracticai > ticians, have never
had political jobs and political
avors of any sort to deal out;
have had no way of obligating the
people tc - e. other than by re¬
maining ever faithful to the trust
mposed 1 y good citizenship.
4 I If I do announce for the office
shall be my own official organ
and an im itation will be extend¬
ed all the candidates to meet in
joint debate and discuss the prin¬
ciples for which we stand. We
ihall put -.n end to the old cry of
tHjual right? to all and special
privilege; to none, etc. We shall
give a remedy for the admitted
wrongs—and if the people will
heed and rise in their strength
we shall have such an economical
administration of state affairs
that the professional politicians
will wonder that he held the
reins so long. * *
