Joe Hill Hall Raps Slaton. The Bibb county man directly goes after Slaton, (hinging him with at tempting to get into office without ever sating what he stands for. and char acterizing his campaign as “a platform, i. -s, issueless*. colorless fight for an in definite somethin'.* nobody knows what, except it be simply to get the job." He charges Mr. Slaton with appealing for the governorship merely "on personal grounds." and says th,* “line-up belt;;-.'’ him is the most remarkable ever framed up in Georgia." Mr. Hail declares lie would sax a good deal more about Alexander if he knext what Alexander proposed to do, but so far he had been unable to fath om exactly what “the gentleman from DeKalb is driving at."
