with an unprejudiced giass. First,
Hon*. Clark Howell.
There is no attempt at conceal
ment on the pari of his friends: he
is the candidate of the corpora
tions. Ilis friends ,*re using every
means, honorable or otherwise, to
prevent a discussion of the real is
sues of the campaign. They throw
all their political venom into a
caldron of malice against one—
Hoke Smith--and they try by ev
ery subterfuge known to the po
litical ringsters to divert him from
the discussion of the real issues
before the people. They even
pick up others, Dick Russell, for
instance, and try to hold them bt-
tvveen H ike Smith and the peo
ple, and they equip them with
plausible platforms that may cap
ture the unsophisticated voter who
does not want to vote for Howell.
They talk a great deal about
the minor issues, the suffrage, the
I'iedmont bar and Tom Watson,
but they are mum on the weight
ier matters of the campaign—the
real question goes unanswered.
Dick Russell’s platform seems to
be, “Let us tax the white man to
educate the nigger,” and to tell
other good jokes. Jim Smith just
simply wants to be governor and
