DEMOCRATS URGE
BIG FULTON VOTE
Danger of Wilson Not Getting
Majority Lies in Apathy,
Says Committee.
The Fulton county Democratic exec
utive committee today issued the fol-
I lowing appeal to voters:
"To the Voters of Fulton Cbunty:
“The Fulton county Democratic exec
utive committee urges each voter in
this county on November 5 to cast his
ballot for Wilson and Marshall.
"For the first time In twenty years
the Democratic party is on the eve of a
great national victory. For Georgia,
and especially Fulton county, to lag
behind in the great triumphal proces
sion which will march to the pdlls on
Tuesday next would be nothing short
of a calamity.
“In all sections of the country the
Democratic party is united as never
before. The Republican party is torn
between the Bull Moose and
reactionary factions.
"The attention of the voters is called
to the fact that In Georgia a majority’
of all the votes is required in order for
the Democratic electors to carry the
day. To stay away from the polls and
not vote is equivalent to a vote against
the Democratic candidate. In order for
Wilson and Marshall to sweep the field
it is only necessary that a full vote be
polled. The only danger the Demo
crats have in Georgia is from apathy
and overconfidence.
‘Fulton county is the largest county
in Georgia and is the most important
community tn the Southern states. It
would be a blow to the prestige of this
section not to give an overwhelming
majority for Wilson and Marshall.
"We had a heated primary In Geor
gia, in which Woodrow Wilson and
Oscar Underwood were the only candi
dates voted upon. Whatever bitterness
is engendered by this campaign has
been happily forgotten. The leaders of
all factions have gotten together and
are putting their shoulders to the
wheel for Wilson and Marshall. We
may differ among ourselves as Demo
crats, but all honorable men recognize
that the obligation of a primary re
quires that the voter cast his ballot for
the victor tn the gerfbral election.
"Desperate efforts are being made for
the first time in years by the opponents
of Democracy to make a shdwing
against the Democratic candidates in
Georgia. There is a considerable ne
gro registration, which, it is safe to say,
will go for one or the other of the Re
publican candidates. Not only for the
first time in twenty years has Democ
racy a chance to win, but for the first
time in over half a centurv has the
South an opportunity to put a Southern
born and Southern reared man fn the
presidential chair."

SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS
ON GEORGIA POLITICS
By JAMES B. NEVIN.
Governor Joseph M. Brown believes
that it is very much the duty of every
registered Democrat in Georgia to go
jaxm a ntv-x
to the polls on
Tuesday next and
cast his ballot for
Wilson and Mar
shall electors.
The governor is
not uneasy that
the state may fail
to give its elec
toral vote to tin
Democratic nomi
nees, but he be
lieves it is pecu
liarly Georgia’s
duty to make the
victory for Wilson
and Marshall in
side the state as
emphatic and pos
itive as possible.
The Democratic
candidate for the presidency has a
large and special claim upon Georgia’s
generosity in the present contest.
Governor Brown, as he explained in a
formal communication to the press,
given out several days ago, thinks it
very much in order for all citizens who
supported Underwood in the primary
campaign to rally now to Wilson and
Marshall. The primary fight was. in
the executive mind, a lively little family
row—nothing more. Now that Wilson
has been made the head of the family,
the governor thinks the members
thereof should back him to an everlast
ing finish.
If Georgia casts anything like her
possible Democratic vote, the victory
for Wilson and Marshall will be con
clusive.
It will not do, however—and the gov
ernor emphasizes this —to overlook the
fact that the Republicans, both of the
Taft and the Roosevelt persuasion, are
going to vote—-they will go to the polls.
Between them they will make a brave
showing. Indeed, it is not too much to
say, perhaps, that the Republican vote
this year will be the heaviest cast fn
Georgia since Reconstruction.
Governor Brown thinks Georgia
should take no chance whatever on the
Democratic majority next Tuesday fall
ing In any way proportionately below
what it should be—and may so easily
be.
It is merely a question of the Demo
cratic vote turning out and putting its
ballot in the box.
And it is the patriotic duty of every
Democrat to cast his ballot for Wilson
and Marshall that Governor Brown at
this time’ particularly emphasizes
The general impression seems to be
that the larger Wilson and Marshall
vote is to ijome from south Georgia, and
the larger Roosevelt vote is to come
fiom north Georgia. The Taft vote will
loom not particularly large in any one
section as compared with another.
Middle Georgia is tfte fighting ground
—the missionary territory of all shades
of political opinion.
A surprisingly heavy Roosevelt vote
in that section undoubtedly would cut
a significant figure in the completed
returns.
The preponderance of opinion is fa
vorable to a full Wilson and Marshall
vote in middle Georgia, however—and
it is there that the state will be carried
safely for the Democrats.
When all is said and done, it gets
back to the point the governor raises—
the Democratic vote must turn out in
force on election day. It must turn out
not only to make Wilson and Marshall’s
triumph sure, but overwhelming.
In between national and state elec
tions, the people of south Georgia find
time to sandwich much politics of more
immediate interest.
Boston, for instance —sure, there is a
Boston, Georgia!—has just pulled off a
cow election.
Boston has taken her place by the
side of Quitman —rampantly fn favor of
the cow. By a vote of 4 to 1, cows
hereafter may roam the streets of Bos
ton at their own swe|t pleasure, chew
ing and browsing wherever the spirit
directs and the chewing and browsing
may be found.
Next to a prohibition election, there
is nothing that stirs up a bigger row in
south Georgia than for somebody to
undertake the infringement of bovine
rights.
In south Georgia the cow is queen of
all she surveys, and her rights there
are none to dispute—successfully, any
way.
Judg-e Joel Branham, of Rome, nastor
of the north Georgia bar, and one of
Georgia’s grand old men, is in Atlanta
today.
It has been a good many years since
the judge sat upon the superior court
bench, but in all those years he has
changed very little. His disposition
and nature is as kindly and as opti
mistic today as it was in the long ago,
when he was in all the vigor and enthu
siasm of robust manhood.
Although getting well along toward
80. Judge Branham still is actively en
gaged in the practice of his profession.
He has just returned from a two
weeks’ stay in Washington, and he
says all the politicians are guessing
Wilson to win, by a wide margin.
In the last presidential election,
when Mr. Bryan was pitted against
Mr. Taft, the vote in Georgia divided
as follows: Democrats, 78,413; Repub
licans, 41,693; Populists, 16,949, and
Prohibitionists, 1,059.
In making figures on this yeaffs elec
tion, therefore, Mr. Thomas E. Watson’s
vote of 16,969, accorded him last time,
will have to be taken into account.
From all over Georgia come reports
that the Watson vote is following Mr.
Watson’s lead again this year, and will
go to Roosevelt
If even so many as ten or twelve
thousand of them go that way, It may
affect the result profoundly—particu
larly if the Democrats do no better this
time than 72,413,
The Wilson and Marshall ticket must
get a majority over all the other can
didates combined, or the state legisla
ture will be called in extraordinary ses
sion to name electors. This would Im
pose an expense of from 15,000 to $lO,-
000 upon the treasury. The situation
certainly calls for every Democrat to go
to the polls.
Lewis Smith. Bull Moose treasurer
for Floyd county, Is in Atlanta today.
Mr. Smith lives In Rome, and keeps
close tab on what is going on politically
—and particularly has he kept tab on
things this year.
He says Roosevelt will get from 750
to 1,000 votes in Floyd county.
