j 1HE PASSING OF THE HEELER.
We notice a great deal is being
i §aid in different parts of the State
about the passing of the heeler.
That is right; he should go, and
go to stay. However, in getting
bid of the heeler why not^dispose
of his employer, the boodler?
Is the man who pays heelers
and tosses to buy an election for
/Tin] any better than hi3 hirelings?
We think not. The man who buys

land the candidate who furnishes

its in an election is just as bad

lion. F. C. Tate,
Washington, D. C.:
Dear Sir: I had hoped that during
our canvass for the Democratic nomina
tion honorable means only would be
employed, but from the following letter
you have sent out to people in White
county, which is only one of many
which you have circulated, I am con
vinced that my dream has been dis
pelled -
House of Representatives, U. S.,
Washington, D. C., April 8,-1898—Mr.
- / Parks, Ga. ~{Personal)—Dear
I riend: I had hoped to be at your court
next week, but with war staring this
country in the face I cannot leave my
post of duty for the purpose of advanc
ing my own political interest; there
fore tied down here as I am, I must rely
upon you and my other friends to take
care of my interests. I have at all
times kept my promises and endeavored
honestly and faithfully to discharge my
duty, and I am sure that you will agree
with me that no fair or truthful man
will assert that I have not done so.
Every scheme and plan known to the
slick politician will be resorted to for
the purpose of prejudicing the people
against me. As I can't be present, I ask
that you look after my interest and see
to it that I am not misrepresented,
understand that Mr. Thompson claims
that he has done me great service in
my political campaigns. This is un
true, as every Democrat in the district
is aware. You know he never made a
Democratic speech or helped the Demo
crats in any campaign in your county.
I do not suppose you can find a voter in
your county that Mr. Thompson ever
asked, either private or on the stump,
to vote for me or any other Democrat,
and how he can so far forget the truth
as to stand up in the very face of men
like you who have worked for me and
claim the credit for what you and my
other friends have done for me I can’t

Dear Howard: I have done as you

State convention and see to it that our
friends are selected as delegates to the
convention. I don’t see how you can
select a regular delegation from your
county on Saturday unless it is author

trouble.is the delegates to the county
convention were not selected for this
purpose, or in the original call there
was no authority given the county con

congressional convention. We have got (Sw$f’sSpecJflcf

nothing which he now says against me
that he did ijot know at the time when
he claims tbit he alone elected me—
the only diffidence being, at that time
he was not hijnself a candidate for Con

me show fiat he either deceiyed and
misled the people by not telling them
what he kiew against me when he was
not a canddate. or there is no truth in
what he sa r s about me now, and he can

ground to kick.
Your friend, F. C. Tate.
I was actively aiding you in everv
county in this judicial circuit in vour
last canvass, and you and thousands of
other Democrats of the district know
this to be true. You came to my house
the Sunday before the executive
committee of this district met, with S.
C. Dunlap, who held the proxy of Oliver
Wyly of Towns county, who is your
cousin, and earnestly begged me not to
go to White Superior court, which met
Monday morning thereafter, but re
main in Gainesville to be present at the
meeting of the committee, and to aid
you in devising ways and means to de
feat Col. Perry. After full conference
it was agreed that I should go to White
court, as I could be of more service
there than at Gainesville, and I went
and Dunlap remained, met with the ex
ecutive committee and aided you in
every way in his power. In your other
two campaigns I was equally as active
for you.
4th. The charge that I never asked
a voter to vote for you or any other
Democrat, etc is equally as barren of
truth.
5th. The charges I now make against
you were. I confess, unknown to me m
your previous canvasses, and the fact
that you now fail to speak of them, so
the people may know what they are.
shows that you think they cannot be
satisfactorily explained to an exacting
public, and if they could your friends
on the joint committee to arrange for
our canvass would have been glad to
have you meet me.
6th. Again you say, “Mr. Thompson
should at least be truthful and fair. I
have done more for him and his broth
er-in-law, Sam Dunlap, than for any
two men in the district,” etc. In the
face of the record, you again deceive
yourself. You know that the first time
I ran for solicitor-general of this cir
cuit, in 1882, you were a member of the
legislature and promised to vote for me,
and had you kept your word I would
have been elected, as I was only defeat
ed by one vote, and your vote for me
would have changed the result. In
1886 I was again, a candidate for the
same office and you voted against me
but I was elected. In my last election,
at my request you were neutral. These
are the only races I ever made when I
had opposition. Now in what way have
you ever helped me?
On the question of gratitude and ver
acity I let the record speak for itself
and upon it I am willing to stand or
fall. I am not engaged in the building
of my political fortunes and stabbing
an opponent in the back under the guise
of personal letters at the expense of the
truth.
Very truly yours.
