rp () { the opinion that Hoke Smith
t he better qualified mian for the
iti o n of United States Senator and
our great desire is to reward him for
jeritorious service.
Senator Smith has made a wonder
rtl record in the United States Senate
There is not a man’ in Georgia, nor
tTen in the south, who could have at
tained the position and influence that
Senator Smith, hias in so short a time.
His reputation is nation-wide. He is
recognized as one of the ablest, if not
very ablest man in the Senate.
His influence over national affairs is
tnusuiaMy great. His record shows
that he has universally stood for those
measures in the Senate which are for
the best interest of the masses of the
people. There aan be little doubt that
kt will be returned to the Senate, 'and
■our only regret is that he will return
ed with any opposition at all.
It is with genuine sorrow that we
■otice the attacks being made on
lenator Smith. Governor Brown ,and
ki> friends, have fallen into several
errors in attacking Senator Simth.
for instance, in his last card, which
ii most adroitly worded, Mr. Brown
•reates the impression that the new
eurrency law establishing regional
tanks does not provide for the lend
iig of money to farmers, stating
-Hence the regional bank system is a
tullity so far as relief to the farmer
w concerned.” Such am impression, if
wade, is entirety erroneous'. It is an
attack upon the administration of Mr.
TFilson. It is factionalism run mad.
The law specifically that
loans can be made by all banks that
ire members of the regional bank
lystem except the Central Reserve
fcank (that is, such a Bank to he es
tablished in Atlanta as the reserve
fcank for the states of Georgia. Ala
tanma, Florida and other states).
Every other bank whioh 'becomes a
number of the system, including >th
National Banks which heretofore
•ou!d not lend money on real estate,
*re specifically authorized to make
loons on farm lands, not exceeding
of the value of farms, ,for a per
iod not exceeding five years. For this
Purpose these banks can lend 25%
their capital and surplus, and one-
rd of their time deposits.
■ This feature of the la'w will in time
Po doubt become of great value to
■be farmer. It wild be known by its
pctual operation. ,
II it is well known ;by every one famil
l,r w 'th the fight made to have the

Batten ta that had it not been for Sena

av/ay with factionalism.
1 lmt a host o>f Georgians are really
jand earnestly in favor of doing away
w*th facr.ouaJi.im in Georgia is evi
' tie need by the faot that the news pap
: 7 rs “-be state are practically uniLd
m the support of Hoke Smith and Jno.
M. Slaton for the senate.
The press of Georgia rcftecti the
-entimer,t of Georgia. While to some
extent newspapers direct and create
sentiment, it is more generally fund
to be true thut they adopt the existing
i wights and sentiments prevailing
n the communities in which they are
I published.
I Ihe fact, then that the pepers of
j Georgia are largely spporting Sena
!or Smith and Governor Slaton for
'he long and short terms respectively
|in the senate races simply prov, s
, tihe men of Georgia are tired of
factional and divisional strife and
| they feel it their duty .to support Scn
jator Smith as the best, represtntative
tithe faction with which he hashere
| (ofore trained and Governor Slaitott as
tthe best and fairest representative of
the faction with which he has hereto
fore trained.
The desire upon the part of thos-
I w ho hold that the interest of Georgia
| is above any factional or personal ad
j vantage is that these two men be sent
j to the senate with thq command .from
| the people that they should there
jwark together for the common good
of the people.
Now is the time to strike factional
ism and personal politics a death blow
in Georgia. ,
Of what good is it to you, Mr. Vote.-,
that one ifaction of politicians be giv
en all the advantage or that the, other
faction he suppressed? Do you win?
ISttc’n a result will simply bring on a
fight at the next election which will
begin the next day after .this primary
is over. Is that a condition which
‘works for the best interest of the
■state?
> 1
Your answer must be NO.
It keeps the state in a stew all the
time. It makes politics an every day
discussion and keeps an otherwise
productive citizen away from his plow,
his mine land his businesls.
Senator Smith, is an able represen
tative of Georgia. His intellect and
genfous i9 recognized by all. .He has
been the head of one school of thought
•in Georgia politics. 4
Governor Slaton is likewise an able
representative of Georgia, He has
made a useful' legislator and a valu
able governor. Practically five
sixiths of the people of Georgia pro
claimed this to be so when they voted
for him for governor. He has trained
with, the other school of thought in
Georgia politics. . v
The Tribune voices the sentiments
bnd reflects the views of thousands of
its fellow citizens when it advocate.-
the election of 'these two able, capa
ble, well equipped statesmen for the
senate. (
We wil Ihever have a betted' chanc l
■to reward the best of both factions
'alt one time and irt can be the best
days work Georgia voters have ever
done.
| Judge Milrver Commends Mr, Neel.
Judge Thomas W. Milner, former
superior court judge of the Cherokee
circuit, and an old and experienced
practitioner of the law in Georgia, has
furnished a testimonial in the interest
of J. M. Neel, Jr., candidate for solici
tor general of this circuit, which is
being used extensively by Mr. Nee!
and his friends in his campaign.
There is, perhaps, no one who is
better qualified to render a sound
judgment concerning Mr. Neel’s quali
fications than Judge Milner. As judge
of the superior court, law was practic
ed before him by old and young law
yers over the entire circuit. While off
the bench he has been an active prac
titioner and successful one. He has
grown old in the pursuit of his profes
sion and in association with men. He
is a man of the highest integrity and
possesses the ripest of judgment. He
is not related in any way to either of
the aspirants. Looking out from this
vantage ground and surveying the
field and taking into account his ob
servations and experience through
many years, he states that an active,
young man can best fill this import
ant office, and, knowing Mr. Ne I, ob
serving him in court and as a man.
he gives it as his judgment that Mr.
Neel is a lawyer of honor and integri
ty in ail his professional relations and
has the ability to discharge the duties
of the office to the satisfaction of
the people.
Judge Mil-ner’s letter is as follows:
To Whom It May Concern:
I take pleasure in stating that 1
have known Mr. J. M. Neel, Jr., from
boyhood, and have known him as a
lawyer practicing at this bar as a
member of the firm of Neel & Neel
for seven years. He is an unusually
promising lawyer for a young man cf
his age; I have observed him in the
trial of many cases in the superior
and city courts of this county, both
civil and criminal, sometimes in as
sociation with his father and some
times alone; he argues legal questions

before the court with ability, and is
forceful as an advocate before
If elected to the office of solicitor
general of this circuit I have no doubt
of his ability to discharge the duties
< f the office with credit to himself,
and to the satisfaction of the p< oplt*.
Believing as I do that active young
men can host fill this important of
fice, I have no hesitation in commend
ing Mr. Neel as well equipped for the
plaice. 1 will further state that he is
regarded by this bar. and the people
of this county, as a lawyer of honor
and integrity in all his prof- ssion.il
relations.

ALEX. STEPHENS FOR
JUDGE COURT APPEALS
.4
His Opponent Long Term Officeholder
Mr. Stephens’ opponent Is a mem
ber of a family of long term office
holders in Atlanta. Several Atlanta
office holders have been sending out
letters in this gentleman’s behalf.
Commenting upon the efforts of some
of these office holders and their law
yer friends in behalf of Mr. Stephens’
opponent, the Crawfordville Advocate
Democrat has this to say:
Few Atlanta Lawyers Trying to Die
tate Judge to People of Georgia.
In conformity with the characteris
tics that have ever attended them,
some of the members of the Atlanta
bar, are in the habit of running
the politics of the state, whenever
the rest of the people will let them,
and who especially think that it is
their right always to name the judges
of the state courts of review have is
sued their promulgation that they have
decided among themselves to put Mr.
Nash Broyles, the police recorder, on
the appellate court bench.
In this instance, it seems that they
are not in accord with the country
members of their profession, nor with
all of the Atlanta members, for it is
the general impression throughout the
state that three-fourths of the country
members of the bar are supporting
Mr. Stephens for this position.
It will be interesting to watch the
outcome of this race: whether these
Atlanta lawyers will put through their
plan, or whether their country breth
ren will insist on the Atlanta crowd
being overthrown.
But the most interesting of all is,
what will the people of Georgia do?
Will they let this Atlanta crowd of
politicians name each and every offi
cer, or will the great body of the
voters of Georgia, in a fight between
these Atlanta lawyers and the country
lawyers, side with their country fellow
citizens, and help them to put over one
of the Atlanta crowd, and elect Col.
Alexander W. Stephens, who comes
before the people of the whole state
with the ablest judges and lawyers
of Georgia supporting and endorsing
him as well fitted and qualified for
this high position?
Mr. Stephens Non-Sectional Candidate.
Mr. Stephens’ opponent is advertis
ing himself as the candidate of the
Atlanta bar. As this is a State office,
why does he net run as a candidate
of the bar of Georgia instead of a
particular city? Mr. Stephens is not
the candidate of any particular section,
but his support comes from the ma
jority of the bar and citizens generally
of the whole state of Georgia.
Letter From Judge Spencer R. Atkirv
son, Former Justice of the Supreme
Court of Georgia, to Mr. Stephens.
It giyes ige great ple&gqr* to certify
not Shlji ii? £o ydur ShaFicter afi a
man. hut as to your ability as a law
yer, and your qualifications to fill the
place to which you seek an election
on the bench of the court of appeals,
and to say that from my personal
knowledge as to your attainments as a
lawyer, 1 am quite Bure that in the
event of your election you will fill
the office with credit to yourself and
to the satisfaction of the people.
Judge Horace M. Holden, Former
Judge of Supreme Court, Says:
Mr. Stephens is an able lawyer, and,
in my opinion, is well qualified to fill
the position of judge of the court of
appeals of Georgia, and, if elected, will
render efficient and satisfactory serv
ice. I hope that he will win.
Letter From Judge Arthur G. Powell,
Former Judge of the Court of Ap
peals to Mr. Stephens.
I take pleasure in endorsing you for
the unexpired term of Judge Ben Hill
on the court of appeals. I remember
with gratitude the great assistance you
gave me in my first race for a position
on tills same court, and I trust that
my friends will also appreciate your
activities in my behalf at that time
and will support you. From my
personal knowledge of you, I believe
that it would he your utmost solici
tude to fill the position, if you are
elected to it, in such a manner as
will reflect credit upon that great
Georgian and relative of yours.
Letter From Judge J. R. Pottle, For
mer Judge of the Court of Appeals,
to Mr. Stephens.
It will afford me pleasure to give
you such aid in your race as I may
be able to render. My own experi
ence upon the court of appeals has
given me some idea of the qualifica
tions necessary to discharge the duties
of that office. An accurate knowledge
of the law, which can be acquired only
after years of laborious application, is
one of the essentials. Such knowledge
I believe you to have, and In addition
to this, I think you are temperamental
ly fitted for judicial work.
