The Georgian prints Judge McWhor ter's letter, despite Its lateness, as fol lows: "Athens, On., June 18, 1908.—H. J. Rowe, Athens. Go.—My Dear Mr. Rowe: I have read your editorial notice of Hoke Smith's speech In Athens on Saturday afternoon, In which you refer to his attack on me nnd others, and his persistent effort to raise for cam paign purposea what has been termed lli" r iml ' nf liitlru.'iil linmln.ilion. "As I ain a private citizen and not a candidate for any office, I have re frained from replying to these unpro voked attacks for campaign purposes w hi. h link.' Smith Inis mulling qpon me with more or less seeming venom throughout the state. "My.neighbors and those who know me are aware of the fact that I have not participated or taken any active part In the pending gubernatorial cam paign, and up to this date I have neith er Influenced' or sought to Influence any friend to vote for or against either candidate. "In spite of this fact, however, Hoke Smith, as a part of his campaign scheme of alleged railroad domination, has fabricated and exaggerated my relation with others to It by slanders and Insinuations, both false and con temptible. 8mith’s Methods Those of Thug. 'But his references, so far as I am aware, have always been vague and Indaflnlte, though false and exagger ated, that no fitting reply could have been mads except to have denounced It as the method of the thug and the charcter ot an assassin, which no brave and honorable man would adopt, and therefore over the protest of my friends, 1 have remained silent, assum ing that a sense of decency would ulti mately restrain him, but In view ot hts attack on Saturday In the city of my residence, forbearance ceases to be a virtue and I feel constrained there fore, to make the following personal statement: "For the pnst eleven years I have represented the Southern Railway Company, first os advisory counsel for Georgia, nnd more recently as assist ant general counsel for tho entire sys tem. "During this time I have appeared for my client before the courts, the railroad commission, the comptroller general boards of arbitration, the leg islature, municipal corporations, and. In fact, wherever duty called and Its rights and Interests were Involved. “I have represented It openly and honorably and to the very best of my ability, and I purpose to continue to do so as long as the relation of attorney and client exists. This Is tny manifest duty, and the man who deviates and swerves from his rightful course because of unjust criticism or Indecent abuse Is false to duty and will rarely be right. During this time I have oftsn rep' resented It before the railroad com' mission, of which Hon. J. Pope Brown was sn honored and honorable mem ber, nnd aa he Is r« porting Mr. Smith, llm—or any other members of ths railroad commission during all these years—to say if I have not always rep resented my client before that body openly, fairly and frankly. "I have also represented It before tax arbitration boards, of which Hon. J. Pope Brown was a member, and I will let him or any other member of these boards say If I did not reprssent Its rights and Interests before that trib unal frankly and honorably. Rsprsssntsd Read on Tax Question, •'I have often represnted It on tax questions and assessments before Comptroller General Wright—whose honor and Integrity no man will Im peach—and I will leave It to him to say If I have ever swerved In behalf of my client from a frank, honorable and open course. 1 "As other lawyers representing cor porate or Individual clients, I have often during this psrlod appeared be fore legislative committees In referencs to pending bills affecting my client's rights and Interests, but no member of the legislature, however partisan be Is or prejudiced he may be, or whom soever he rosy be supporting for gov ernor, will say that I have ever sought wrongfully or Improperly to Influence his judgment or his vote. “In fact, since I began to represent the Southern railway I have appeared for It before every form of tribunal In this state where its rights and Inter ests are considered and determined, and I have always openly, frankly and honorably, but to the very best of my ability, undertaken to establish the fairness and Justice of the views which I presented In Its behalf. “My plain professional obligation Is to represent In good faith the rights duty calls and In whatsvsr tribunal Its rights and Interests may be Involved, and I purpose to continue to do so. "Hoke Smith Is reported to have said that the railroad Influence—of which I am represented as the chief—has elect ed ths president of the senate and speaker of the house for the past live years. Insinuating thereby that such Influence was constant and Insidious and was for Improper purposes. "In the past five year* there have been two president of the senate, Hon. W. S. West and Hon. Clark Howell and two speakers of the house, Hon. John M. Slaton and Hon. N. A. Morris "Mr. Slaton and Mr. Howell were elected without opposition. Mr. Morris and Mr. West were elected with oppo sition. Mad*' No Request of West "When Mr. West was elected the candidate^ were Messrs. A. O. Bla lock, Murphy, Candler, B. 8. Miller and W. S. West. "In this contest I did not participate, nor did I seek to Influence any semitor to vote for or against either candidate. "As the candidates themselves are the most competent and credlatble wit nesses to IMs fact, and although some of them are reported to b# supporting Hoke Smith. 1 will leave It to them or either of thorn to disavow this stafe- t If It la not true, or I will leave’lt After Mr. Morris' election, however,. I did not request the appointment of I any member na chairman of any com mittee or request the assignment of any member to any committee or re quest Mr. Morris to do anything else I In favor of myself, my friends or my client. "I have heard that Mr. Mqrrle la sup porting Hoke Smith for governor, and he will disaffirm the above statement It It la not true. .Contsmptlbl* By-Play. "In this connection Hoke Smith In dulges In a contemptible by-play to | Impuxn my motives In supporting Mr. Morris, which he knows Is fnlsr. ■'Ho quotes me as saying 'That ths railroads elected Morris, but did not declare any dividends on It.' ] "There Is Just enough truth In this alleged quotation to make Its hypo critical proposition more despicable. "The Incident of the alleged remarks was Insignificant and occurred as fol lows: Some time after Mr. Morris' election, or about four years ago, went Into the Piedmont for dinner. I happened there to meet Mr. Morrla and several of bls.trlends who were Indulg-1 Ing In a friendly conversation. They | were, as Is usual amo * * cldentally Joking each walked up Mr. Morrla had Juat made some Jocular and rutting remark—as I now recall It—to Hon. 8. S. Miller, to which Mr. Miller, In like spirit, replied, ‘that he need not talk so big—that while he was speaker, the railroads elected him,’ dr words to that effect, and as I walked up he turned and re marked, •What about that!' "Naturally I replied In the same s It that, 'If the railroads did elect they did not declare any dividends on It.' Inoldsnt Wtt Jocular. "This Incident was Jocular and was I so understood at ths time, and was I without the slightest reflection either I In word, thought or Insinuation—oth erwise It would have been Insulting to I Mr. Morris. . It was Just such Jocular badinage I under the license of Intimate friend- | ship as occur* every day among Inti mate friends, and ths effort to pervert | It to serve a selfish reflection on anybody, slllanlmous and despicable. "If the Jocular remarks of Intimate friends throughout the state could be I distorted Into a serious reflection whenever It served some sinister or I selfish purpose, then no man In Geor gia would have any more shred of character than Hoke Smith seems to have exhibited In this campaign. . "Mr. Slaton nnd Mr. Huwell wsre I elected without opposition, hut I did I not request either nf them to appoint any senator or membnr chairman of any committee or assign any senator or member to any committee or make any request of either of them for my self, my friends or my client, and If this Is not true, either or both of them can disavow It. 'I am making thsss broad assertions and am leaving the truth ot them tot others, some of whom, I am Informed, Hoke Hmlth, but who I honorable men, because 1 am supremely conscious of the recti- I tude of my conduct and the sincerity of this statement.
