Organized Labor Resents Attacks
of Former Governor and Declare
He Violated Law When He Sent
'
Troops to Augusta and Mines.
“Cheap Bid for Farmers’ Union
Votes,” Term Given Reference
to Agricultural Organization as
Superior to Other Unionists.
The reply of the Georgia Federa
tion of Labor to former Governor Jo
seph M. Brown’s attack upon it fol
lows:
To the Peopls of Georgia:
As long as Ex-Governor Brown,
week after week, carried on his bit
ter attacks upon organized labor in
his newspapers articles, organized la
bor did not think it worth while to
reply to his diatribes.
This is a free country, and the Ex-
Giovernor is entitled to his own par
tieular brand of views, if the news
papers will publish them.
But when he announces in his plat
form, as practically his gole political
plank, false and defamatory matter,
and seeks to create prejudice against
a large body of his fellow citizens in
order to be elected to the exalted,
office of United States Senator, we
feel bound to protest.
Nor do we desire to descend to his
lovel of mere vulgar abuse.
The people of Georgia have twice
honored him greatly. And, while
peoples of sister States in periods of
political aberration have heaped sim
ilar honors upon other men, whose
very names have become synonyms
of gcorn and jest, and who have
brought no credit to such great Com
monwealths, and it does not, there
fore, follow that every man elected
to the great office of Governor must
necessarily be wise, and just, and pa
triotic, we prefer to reply to Ex-Gov
ernor Brown's attacks in far fairer
and more parliamentary terms than
is found in his attacks upon organ
ized labor.
Indeed, organized labor truly con
tributed largely to “Little Joe's” first
election. The vote-getting (but, as
afterward proved, specious) slogan of
“Brown and Bread,” won him thous
ands of votes; for to the wage
earners ~ the world over, in all the
ages, the promiss of more bread by
patriot or gcheming demagogue, has
had an alluring effect.
“Liked Unions Then.”
In those days, and later in the early
part of his incumbency, Governor
Joseph M. Brown thought vastly weil
of lahor unions. In stenographically
raported addresses to labor organiza
tions, he fairly bubbled over with
words of praise, love, affection, for
the organized and “horny-handed
sons of toll.”
Did he not know as much about or
ganized labor then as now? It was
not until Governor Brown showed a
fatal bent of mind to place martial
law above civil law—to substitute
Mausers and drumhead courtmar
tials for the orderly processes of civil
tribunals that organized working
men and thousands of other citizens
sorrowfully parted political company
with him.
The Walker County coal mine af
fair (the military uselessly rushed
there at the request of one of his
largest campaign contributors); the
Augusta street railway strike; the
Georgia Railroad strike; in all these
instances Governor Brown, in his
military zeal, rode roughshod over
Federal and State Constitutions and
grossly violated Georgia statutes;
and at® Angusta innocent, inoffensive
sitizens were outrageously shot down
by his militia.
Was organized labor alone in pro
testing agzinst these acts of the Gov
ernor? No. Scores of newspapers
took him severly to taek, and Thomas
E. Watson, whose home is near Au
gusta, and who closely investigated
the facts of that awful massacre, in
several issues of his Jeffersonian,
notably in those of July 3 and 10,
1913. excoriated him and his military

home. Miss
Lucille Kuhrt
was one of
those who
watehed the §
scene from a g
seat in a skiff. é
dedicated Sunday.
One of the principal tasks of the ex
ecutive committee will be the selec
tion of a site; another, the selection
of a name, . A
As to the first task, the committee
has four proffered sites from which to
make a selection. One is the donation
of Edwin P. Ansley of 75 acres near
the Oglethorpe University site; an
other is offered by Victor Kriegs
haber, and is located on the Cheshire
road; anothes by B. F. Burdette, be
ing 76 acres out Peachtree road in
DeKalb County, and the fourth by
Lowry Arnold and J. D. Robinson, for
the Riverside Land Company, of 109
acres on Chattahoochee River,
The fourth offer was made Satur
day. The land is In the plat of the
Riverside Land Company and is sit
uated {n the northern part of Fulton
County, toward which considerable
building has been done of late.
If either of the sites is accepted, a
deed will be made to the newly elect
ed trustees. Until this is done there
will be no further developments in the
task of perfecting plans finally.
The selgction of a name will be an
interesting feature of the executive
committee's work. The preponder
ance of opinion is that the institution
will be named “Candler University,”
after Asa G. Candler, the generous
donor of $1,000,000 toward its estab
lishment. A number of letters have
been received by newspapers and by
the executive .committee members
urging the adoption of the name of tile
‘university's benefactor.

Brilliant Dance at Clubhouse Carries Festivi
ties Up to Midnight.
The Fast Lake Country Club
grounds of the Atlanta Athletic Club
presented a scene of almost unparal
leled activity Saturday afternoon.
The golf course was congested with
golfers, earnestly qualifying for the
Perry Adalr cup tournament, and
banked on the north shore of the lake
1,500 persons in noticeabls raiment
were watching a large number of
other persons, in not so much, rai
ment, performing variously in the
events of the annual water sports
carnival.
It was a pretty spectacle. both in
and on the water and on the shore.
The sun was bright and warm, and
the swimming costumes were bright
and cool, and everybody apfpeared to
be very well pleased with the tout
ensemble, whatever that is.
The water sports consisted of swim
ming and diving and canoeing—or
canoodling, as Walter Dußard ex
presses it. Joe Bean was the chief
referee, with an authoritative airand
an alarming revolver three inches
iong, used for starting purposes.
Dashing Events Splashing.
The sports started and finished at
the float, so called because it is nailed
down to the bottom of the lake. Also,
there were flags sticking up at sult
sbie intervals to mark off the dashes,
which are not quite so dashing mf
