Holder Tuesday gave out foh publication a copy’ of a letter from J. F. Shannon, editor of the Commerce News, and from Dr. J. C. Bennett, president of the Jackson County Holder club, vigorously protesting against the ef fort of the Atlanta Constitution to get Mr. Holder withdraw from the racfe for governor. The letter of Mr. Shannon was sent to the Constitution by special deliv ery mail on August 21, according to the Holder headquarters, and the protest of the Jackson County’ Hol der club was telegraphed to the Con stitution on the same date by its Jefferson correspondent. Neither communication, according to Holder headquarters, has yet been publish ed in the Constitution. Constitution’s Guardianship Editoi- Shannon’s letter declares th. "every well-informed person knows that he (Governor Dorsey) never would have been in the race if it had not been for the everlast ing naggi%g and persistent, unre lentness efforts of the Constitution.” Now, Mr. Shannon continues, "the Constitution says who shall not run for governor.” “In other words,” says Mr. Shr.niton, “tlie Constitution has assumed the guardianship of Georgia politics to the extent that it has the cheek to say who must run and who must not run for office in Georgia. And the consistency of the Constitution is patent to every well posted •Georgian, for, while the Consti tution wants an open field for its candidate (Mr. Walker), and is having fits because the Demo cratic vote will be divided in, the governor’s race, the fact re mains that tut for the persist ency and bossy attiture of the Constitution, Senator Smith would have a fair fight with -■lr. Watson and would have easily defeated him. Eut the Consti ution did not want the Senator to make the fight open handed and alcne. it wanted the Demo cratic vote divided in .Georgia. Jhe Constitution knows full .zeli that Senator Smith would .iavo defeated Mr. Watson, but in order to execute its boss-ship to the fulles,;, the Constitution '..ent out and forced Governor Dorsey to enter the race, in or der that the Democratic vote in .lie state might be divided be tween Senator Smith and Mr. Dorsey.” Jackson Club Protests The protest of the Jackson Coun- • Holder club follows: Editor Constitution, Atlanta, Ga. / We have noted with some interest, as well as surprise, the concurrent articles in Friday’s issue of your pa per, one from your pen, and the other from Mr. Anderson, of the Macon Telegraph, the purpose of which is to scare Mr. Holder out of the race for governor. In the name of the 2,500 names enrolled in the Jackson Coun ty Holder club, and the thousands of other true and loyal Democrats in ev ery section of Georgia who expect to have a part in the naming of the next governor of Georgia on the Sth of September, we earnestly protest. Mr. Holder announced his intention to make the race for governor just one year ago. He has made a very thorough canvass of nearly every part of the state and finds his cam paign in good shape. With north Georgia practically solid for him, and the enthusiastic reception he is re ceiving just now as he is touring middle and southern Georgia, there is every reason to believe that he is leading in the three-coAnered race for the governorship. He is eminent ly qualified for the position. Being a farmer, editor, business man, and not a lawyer, it is no wonder a good many lawyers and “court officers” are not supporting him. Please con sult a large element of the common people, the plain yeomanry of this state of ours, and we believe you will then find you are advising the wrong candidate to withdraw. Very truly yours, \ JACKSON COUNTY HOLDER CLUB? J. C. BENNETT. M. D„ Pres. G. AV, WESTMORELAND Sec. DEAN ADMITS TIP TO WATSON AT CONVENTION (Ccntinuofi. from Page 1) your deal with Watson was to be carried out to the letter until the Smith-Watson delegates to the San Fra.nsl-<oc- invention had been elect ed br the "nalition of forces. Your delegatus "wore to vote for every mo tion vVatron made in the convention and for every resoltuion sanctioned by him upon the floor, and in re turn Watson conceded you temporary chairman of the convention and one half of the delegates tp San Fran cisco. Y'ou knew and so did your delegates that to vote against Watson’s resolu tion condemning the administration and vote for the Randolph resolution indorsing the administration would create a breach with AVatson which would result in the defeat of your delegates to San Francisco. You were determined, at whatever cost, to have a fifty-fifty represen tation with Watson at the national conT’-ir and, therefore, your dele gates 'TTcre instructed-to vote with until they were safely landed. „ . , However, we had definitely learned further that you intended to break with Watson just as soon as the re sult of the election of delegates had been announced by the chair and your representatives had been ac tually elected. We knew that you intended to break faith with Watson and re-offer substantially the Ran dolph resolution, trusting that you could control your delegates to vote for them and knowing that the Palm er delegates would vote for them. Then you would be in position to say to the president: “You see. Pres ident Wilson, it was impossible for you to get any resolution from the convention indorsing your adminis tration without my assistance, but after the convention had refund QUIZ New Questions 1.

Dog Finds Way Home After 900-Mile Hike ALBUQUERQUE, N. M. —Two years ago Roy IM. Coe- and family moved here from Fort Scott, Kan., bringing with them the family pet. Bud, a collie dog. Last November Bud disappeared from home and, al though Mr Coe advertised and, of fered a substantial reward for the dog’s return, no trace of him was found. „ . , The other day Mr. Coe received a message from his brother-in-law, an employe of the Fort Scott Gas com pany, reading: "Bud, somewhat tired, walked into the gas plant and lay down.” The dog, apparently, had consumed abouht eight months mak ing the trip of approximately 900. miles.

I twitted him by saying iu sub stance’ “Mr. Watson, Senator Smith intends to break faith with you as scon as his delegates to San. Fra ncisco are safely landed with the aid of the Watson forces, and you may look out for a resolution coming from Senator Smith indosing the ad ministration.” As soon as the roll call was ended and chairman Olive announced the election of the Smith-Watson dele gates to San Francisco, Mr. Watson moved to adjourn. Strange as it may seem, a major ity of your delegates remained true to Watson and voted with him to ad journ, while the Palmer delegates voted “No.” In view of the above facts, your claim, ninety days after the conven tion, thatl was responsible for de feating the resolutions indorsing the Democratic administration, is very much like the claim of the wolf that the lamb, who was drinking water some distance down the stream, was, nevertheless, muddying the water. Yours very truly, W. U. DEJL»i. RESERVE BANS TO AID IN MARKETING OF COTTON CROP (Continued from Page 1) | with a big estimated production. Florida oranges will have a heavy yield; grapefruit lighten than last year. Louisiana is expected to have the largest rice crop in its history, and a good gugar crop. The Cuban pool, formed to boost the price of sugar, is weakening, and has had lit tle effect on the market, says teh re port. Dumber Market “The lumber market is still domi nated by the transportation situa tion,” says the Federal reserve bank. "The car shortage is said now to be in its worse stage. . . . Other than a continued scarcity of cars, the immediate outlook from the stand point of lumbermen may be regarded as fairly satisfactory. Favorable crop reports have increased the feel ing of business confidence, the mar ket is free from the influence of fluctuating prices, and it is expected the demand for the next three months will be heavier than was the case during the early summer.” Stating that receipts of both tur pentine and rosin are much higher than in July, 1919, and July, 1918, that turpentine demand bids fair to exceed that of last year, that exports are Continuous and that in rosins there is particular strength in both domestic and foreign demands, the bank describes the situation as heal thy and satisfactory in naval stores. Commenting on the serious cost of recent strikes in New Orleans, the bank says that labor conditions to some extent are unsatisfactory at other points in the district also and that, from all points, reports show labor ip be scarce, high and inefi ficient, especially farm labor. Deposits are higher in banks throughout the district, says the re port, but collections have not been so good. The bank also comments in detail on foreign trade; coal, iron and steel, and other lines of trade. Bank clearings for July showed that, while Atlanta was second only to New Orleans, Atlanta had a de crease of 0.3 per cent from clear ings in July, 1919. Atlanta build ing operations increased by $302,679 over July, 1919, but both New Or leans and Birmingham ran slightly ahead of Atlanta in the total value of operations. Pastor Saves Dog On Hunger Strike RIVERSIDE, N. J—To save the life of a pet dog which apparently was grieving ''itself to death over his absence, the Rev. Norman B. Mc- Connell, pastor of the Riverside Methodist church, ha dto return from his vacation. For. two weeks after the clergyman left for a summer rest the dog refused to eat and a veteri narian decided The only trouble with the animal was grief over its miss ing master. Efforts to tempt the dog with choice morsels of high-priced meat failed, the animal refusing to leave its owner’s doorstep. When he was reduced to practically a living skele ton a friend wrote to the pastor and the latter came home at once. The dog feebly expressed delight when the clergyman appeared, broke his long fast and is recovering his strength. Bees Escape in Postoffice CENTRALIA, Wash. —The crew at the Centralia postoffice scattered in all directions when an incoming mai. sack was opened and bees swarmed out.
