MN DEMANDS
EGDNOMYINHIS
CAMPAIGN
Wants to Avoid Possible Taint.
Denied He Hoped for Fund of
$2,000,000.
SEAGIRT, N. J., Aug. 12.—Governor
XVilson announced today that he desired
to avoid any possible taint that an enor
mous campaign fund might- impart to his
candidacy for president and gave notice
that his campaign must be conducted
with the smallest possible expenditure of
funds.
Stories have recently been printed to
the effect that the governor hoped for a
campaign fund of $2,000,000. As a result,
he has been receiving letters from Dem
ocrats in various parts of the country,
commentirtg adversely on the propriety
of such a tremendous fund.
I never said I was anxious to obtain
$2,000,000 for my campaign,” said the
governor today. "It vexes me very much
that that has been stated as the fig
ures 1 had fixed. No such sum has ever
been raised for any campaign in my recol
lection. I have not the least notion how
much is necessary to run a presidential
campaign, but my desire is to confine
the expenditures to a reasonable degree
of economy and absolutely legitimate ob
jects.
Easy to Spend Monay.
"It is easy to spend a lot of money.
You might send fifty speakers over the
grand circuit from here to California and
the traveling expenses woul<L. be enor
mous. I hope, however, that the ex- ]
penses will be kept to a minimum. Os I
course, it is largely a matter of judg j
ment as to how much should be spent. [
My judgment is that the expenditures •
should be kept to as low a figure as pos- j
sible. I regret that It costs as much as it
does to run a campaign.”
Contributions received here up to date i
aggregate $22,000, and the governor thinks I
this a. most gratifying sign.
in amplification of his talk with Fred
erick W. Hinrichs, of Brooklyn, who
warned the governor on Saturday against
association with political machines in this
campaign, the governor said today:
"I simply said to Mr. Hinrichs what I
have said in many speeches. I have al
ways said that organization was abso
lutely necessary, and it was always right
to discriminate between organizations and
machines. The machine is simply that
small part of organization that is used
for wrong purposes, generally private and
personal purposes, ft is not right to con
fuse organization with machine. Mr. Hin
richs admitted that himself, only it was
his theory that organization always did
breed a machine, which I do not think is
true. You can pick the machines of the
country out. They become conspicuous.”
Going After Women’s Vote.
While there is no plank in the Demo
cratic platform advocating woman suf- ;
frage, a plan has been formulated by the i
Wilson campaign managers by which they '
hope to make a bid for the feminine vote i
in the six woman suffrage states.
Mrs. J. Borden Harriman, of New York, j
is to have charge of the Wilson cam
paign among women voters in California. !
Washington, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado'
and Idaho.
Joseph E, Davis, secretary of the na
tional committee and manager of the
western headquarters at Chicago, had an
appointment with Governor Wilson today,
at which he expected to map out Mrs.
Harriman's activities.
Without going onto the suffrage ques
tion, Mrs. Harriman, according to pres
ent plans, will make her appeal by
speeches on the tariff, the cost of living
and legislation relating to hours of em
ployment and workmen s compensation.
Mr. Davie.--- brought for the-governor's
approval abstracts made by Mrs. Harri
man of the workmen's compensation act
and laws limiting.employment, signed by
Governor Wilson in New Jersey
Mrs. Wilson Denies
Approving Cigarettes
SEAGIRT, N. J . Aug 12 Mrs Wood
row Wilson, wife of the Democratic can- I
didate for president, today prepared a
statement, denying reports that she ap
proves of cigarette smoking by women.
Several clippings have been mailed to her
from Western, papers in which she is
quoted as saying that cigarette smoking
by women has her entire approval, and
in some instances that she herself is a
cigarette smoker.
These Western papers have confused
the governor's wife witli Mrs. Wilson
Woodrow, former wife of a cousin. Mrs.
Woodrow, who is a well known magazine
writer, does not hesitate to sav that
she approves of cigarette smoking by
women.

WORK AT THE TECH WILL BE
HAMPERED, SAYS PRESIDENT
I he failure of the bill will hamper our work this year.
The action of the house will cause Tech's friends, who had
promised to do much for the school in a financial way. to lose
heart and interest in the college. You can't expect the people
to be interested in an institution in which the state shows no in
terest.
We will continue our work, doing the best we ean under the
circumstances, and hoping that the next legislature -will be more
considerate.
—Dr. K. G. Matheson, President of Georgia Tech.
TECH IMPERILED
BYGUTINHOUSE
Donations and Active Financial
Support Endangered as Ap
propriation Bill Is Killed.
Future expansion of Georgia Tech is
imperiled by the niggardly policy of the
Georgia house of representatives to
ward the school, according to a state
ment made today by Dr. K. G. Mathe
son. president of the institution.
Thousands of dollars in donations
and active financial support of persons
recently interested in the work at the
[school probably will be withdrawn or at
l least held :ip until the state lawmakers
| show a disposition to care for their own
I institution.
; These donations and this support
! were in sight until the house refused to
I pass a bill appropriating $25,000 for the
I enlargement of a "heating and power
I plant, of which there was immediate
; necessity at the college.
Dr. Matheson Disappointed.
Last hopes of the house reconsidering
its negative action on the appropria
tion bill were abandoned today when
Representative McElreat'n informed
President Matheson that there was no
possibility of the measure’s passage at
the present session.
Dr. Matheson frankly admitted his
disappointment and fears for the fu
ture, as results of the “watch dog of the
treasury” attitude of the legislature.
“Os course,” said Tech’s president,
“the failure of the bill will hamper our
work this year. The heating plant was
badly needed. The necessity for more
power is absolutely imperative if our
work is to go forvzard or even hold its
own.
"But the house’s policy has bad even
I a more serious effect. Persons of large
I financial interests had become inter
i ested in Tech. I had hoped for sub-
Istantial donations and powerful sup
port and aid from them in the imnie
| diate future.
“Bound to Lose Interest.”
“This action is bound to cause them
to lose heart and interest in the college.
They will reason that if the state ig
nores the school, its own property,
there is little reason for others to
evince any great Interest. In this way
I look for the effect of the house’s ac
tion to be more far-reaching than the
simple withholding of the appropria
tion would suggest.
“We had SIO,OOO assured us to be
used on the power plant. but without
the slate’s assistance this money would
be useless. It ean not be tied up until
another year passes and another legis
lature is elected.
T take it that we will go on working,
though, and perhaps the next legisla
ture will be more generous or at least
will realize our imperative needs.”
Chicago Center of
Presidential Fight
CHICAGO. Aug. 12. —Strategists for
the coming political battle gathered in
Chicago today. Before the end of the
week the presidential campaign of three
big parties—Republican. Democratic
and Progressive—will be under way.
The center of the tight will be in Chi
cago.
Republican national headquarters
were opened today In the Auditorium
hotel. David Mulvane, former national
committeeman from Kansas, was in
charge. Senator Joseph M. Dixon, of
Montana, national chairman of the Pro
gressive party, was expected to arrive
today for the opening of headquarters,
probably in the Congress hotel, just
across the street from the Republicans.
A number of Democratic leaders were
in Chicago making final preparations
for the opening of Democratic head
quarters, and the arrival of William F
McCombs on Wednesday was expected
to set the ball rolling. For the present
the campaign of the three parties will
be directed from the headquarters here.

SEEK TO RECALL
T.C.BETTERTDN
I Chattanooga Voters Circulate
Petition Against City Com
missioner.
' TENN.? Aug. 12.
> Greater political excitement than has
existed since the commission form of
government advocates ousted the old
"ring” which controlled Chattanooga
has been precipitated here by the ap
! pearance of a petition asking the re
’ call of T. C. Betterton commissioner
of fire and police, formerly a north
L Georgia Methodist, preacher, in accord
‘ ante with a section of the charter of
1 the city which provides that any com
missioner may be removed from office
if 870 qualified voters sign a recall pe
’ tition. and an election is held to name
his successor. This it the first time
that an attempt has been made to ex
’ ercise the recall under the new city
charter.
The appearance of the petition is a
' result of the recent race for sheriff of
Hamilton county, when Sam A. Conner.
1 Republican, was elected over W. B
Cleage, Democrat, largely through the
’ activity, so it is alleged, of Commis
sioner Betterton, Democrat.
It is charged that the commissioner
used the influence of his office to the
point where he exercised official op
pression over a large part of the Ham
ilton county electorate in accomplish
[ ing the defeat of Cleage.
The petition asks Commissioner Bet - !
’ | terton’s recall upon six counts —that he i
forced employees of the city to take a [
pernicious activity in the recent elec
tion; that he engaged in such activity
! in person; that his administration has
been arbitrary and tyrannical, that his
personal conduct has been abusive and
profane; that his associations with cer
tain special interests have been to the
, detriment of the city; and that his exe
cution of the law has been lax and
partial.
The most serious charge against the
commissioner is that he passed the
word to all the near-beer dealers the
day before the flection that he would
, close them in accordance with the state
prohibition laws if Conner was not
elected. This charge, as well as the
others, is denied by him.

POP CONVENTION
NOT TO INDORSE
No Ticket Will Be Named and
Members Will Be Left
Politically Free.
ST. LOUIS, Aug. 12.—That the Pop- I
ulist national convention, which meets |
tomorrow, will neither nominate a tick- •
et of its own nor indorse the ticket of ;
any other party was the prediction
made today by National Chairman
James H. Ferris, of Joliet. 111., who ar
rived today. Ferris said he believed
the voters should lie left free to vote
for either Roosevelt or Wilson. The
feeling expressed by the delegates who
have gathered, he said, was that the
party should not take up the cause of
either candidate.
“ The fusionists in our party have
either joined issues with the Progres
sive party or have identified themselves
with the Democrats.” said Chairman
Ferris. “In my opinion, it would be
wise for us to draft a strong platform,
reaffirming the planks adopted In St.
Louis in April, 1908. Our monetary
plank, in which we claim that the is
suance of money is a function of the
government, and should not be dele
gated to corporation or individual, will
be affirmed. The legislation gives con
gress alone the power to issue money
and-regulate the value thereof.
“We will, of course, reaffirm initiative
and referendums.
e should leave it to our voters to
ballot, and we should not determine
between Roosevelt and Wilson.
“The Bryan wing of our party proba
bly will not attend our eonclave, as they
have joined the Democrats.”

REASONS FOR POTTLE'S RE-ELECTION
Given by Representative Citizens from
Every Section of the State
« ■
The following • address has been issued
to the people of the state of Georgia by
a committee of prominent citizens, rep
resenting the various sections of the
state:
At the primary election to be held on
August 21, 1912. Hon. .1. R. Pottle will be
a candidate for re-election to the posi
tion as judge of the court of appeals. The
undersigned, acting for ourselves, but also
as a committee selected by his friends
from the various sections of the state, feel
that our acquaintance with Judge Pottle
and with his qualifications, attainments
and work justifies us in submitting to your
consideration the following statement and
reasons why. In our opinion, it is to the
best interest of the people of this state
that he should be retained in his present
position:
First and foremost should be mentioned
his eminent qualifications for the position.
He is a lawyer of unusual ability. He has
the judicial temperament in a marked
degree. His career has been such as to
give him special training for the charac
ter of work required in this office. Eor a
number of years he was one of the law
clerks in the supreme court, and he fol
lowed this with several years of active
and varied practice; and at the time of
his appointment was universally recog
nized as one of the most upright, skillful
and successful .lawyers in the slate.
While he has been on the bench for only
a little more than six months, a < lose
examination of the opinions he has ren
dered will show that we are fully justified
in the high estimate which we have placed
upon his ability as a judge
We further commend him as a polished
gentleman of high personal character, ,
strict integrity and unusual intellectual |
attainments <
It seems to us that the present oppo- i
sition to him is very untimely It has i
been the custom—a good custom as we see .
it, and one that commends itself to all :
fair-minded thinking people, that an ap- I
pointee to an office of this character
should have the opportunity of perfecting
his career and of showing what is in him
before he is called upon to contest for .
his position, and especially should this
be true of one who shows so much prom
ise of usefulness, and against whom .
naught can be said: as is true in the case
of Judge Pottle. The present opposition
to Judge Pottle Is against all precedent.
a vital matter, one way or the other,
to her. But she just naturally inclines [
to lend the under dog in any fight a
helping hand, and so, when Bleckley
county’s fate was trembling in the bal
ance. Mrs. Brown got busy with those
legislators, and —well, Bleckley county
won out, with a whoop, and Bleckley
county is fittingly appreciative.
During a pause in the gay doings at
Cochran Saturday, former Governor
Slaton mounted a convenient table and
called the crowd —there were more than
2,000 there—to order, and informed it
that he had a pleasant duty to perform,
and that he proposed performing it
right then and there.
Whereupon, he, on behalf of the
grand young county of Bleckley,
thanked Mrs. Brown for all that fine
work she did in the legislature, and
presented her, “with the love and es
teem of the citizens of Cochran,” a
handsome silver chatelaine purse!
Then the former governor sat down,
and Mrs. Brown responded prettily.
BEER CLUB’S SESSIONS
ON SUNDAY MORNINGS
OPENED WITH PRAYER
DALTON, GA., Aug. 12.—The dis
banding of an organized beer club in
North Dalton has brought to light an
interesting fact connected with the or
ganization. There was one member, of
a highly religious trend, who always in
sisted on opening the club's meetings
with prayer.
The information comes direct from
one of '.he members, who .states that
the club always received a keg of beer,
which was tapped on Sunday morn
ing. The religious member tailed the
meeting to order and conducted devo

eat quietly around. At the conclusion
of the prayer the kug was tapped and
the meeting lasted as long as the beer
held out.

That It is manifestly unfair to ask
Judge Pottle to give up the position to
another at this time appears when we
recall that the office was tendered to him
without solicitation on his part, and that
being urged by his friends to undertake
this work he gave up a large and lucra
tive practice; and yet, now within less
than a year, he is asked to give up the
judgeship, notwithstanding his service
has been so satisfactory
While there is no law against all three
of the Judges of this court being selected
from the same county or from the same
section of the state, still it is the part
of wisdom that the judges should be se
lected. so far as possible, from different
sections. It should be kept In mtnd that
there are a number of questions of law
constantly arising in each section of the
state which do not arise in the others.
The practice in the cities is very different
from the practice in the country counties;
the city lawyer may be wholly unfamiliar
with many classes of cases constantly
arising in country practice, and vice
versa; so that the members of the court
should be selected with this diversity in
view. At present the court of appeals is
composed of three judges: one is from
Atlanta, one from Walton county, within
fifty miles of Atlanta, and Judge Pottle
is from south Georgia. Judge Pottle's
opponent is from Atlanta: and, if he were
elected, there would not he a man on the
bench to represent that vast section of
the state which lies south of Atlanta.
Believing that Judge Pottle's re-elec
tion is demanded, not only by every ar
gument of fa’irness and expediency, but
by the needs of the bench itself, we com
mend him to the people of Georgia for
his ability, his honesty, his integrity, his
experience, his special fitness for the work
and ask for hint your cordial support at I
the coming primary.
