D S' u POPS” WRITE LETTERS TALKS PLAINLY TOT | Denies Populis: Lead ers Endorsed Negro Disfranchisement, I jo th, Editor of The Georgian: Since The Georgian bu had an In- | tervlew with Hon. Thomas E. Watson 10 which he seriously reflects upon me, I desire a brief space tot reply. I wish to say In the first place tint I have found hut one Populist I leader who admits that he advised Mr. Watson prior to Ills speech of Septem ber 1, 1904. on the disfranchisement ! Question. I hnve not consulted Mr. Sibley nor Mr. McGregor as to the | truth of Mr. Watson’s statement. but<I have a very distinct recollection of [ having been In Judge Hines’ office some weeks ago, at which time he stated to me most positively, In reply to my Question, "With whom did Mr. Watson consult before he made that speech, I pledging the Populist party to the dis franchisement of the negro?” His re- ! ply was: "Nobody—none of the lead ers, certainly not me. I tried to get Mm to tell me what he was going to I aay In his speech nnd he refused." My recollection Is that Chairman Holloway was present at this conference, and I • J. S, WARD, JR,, TAKES TO TASK THE CONSTITUTION Replies Strongly to Editorial in How ell’s Paper. To the Editor of The Georgian: I have no disposition to make your paper a Smith organ, but as your rep resentative sought me between the Plow handles to obtain the Interview In regartl to the Populist state ticket, which haa been made the basts of a leading editorial In The Constitution In which the editor seems to think that he has now struck the "lie” that will grease the Howell machinery and cause It to run to a successful end, I ask apace In your paper to meet the editor of The Constitution (said to be Mr. Howell) with his own srguments. Let’s Bee If Mr. Howell’s lightning won’t do him as applied by his own rule. It la needless to rehearse to your readers the tactics of Mr. Howell’s campaign since his stand-pat, let-well- enough-alone platform has failed to rally a majority of the Populists tq hla standard. Hla policy toward them has been to discourage their taking part In the primary. Notwithstanding the fact that their organisation has been broken up for six years, the big Howell organs have been working hard for some time to reorganise the Pops, and as there is to be a ticket put In the field, I sup pose they think their triumph Is at TO HOLD CONGRESS TILL CONFERENCE BILLS CAUSE DELAY IN ADJOURNMENT Lawmakers May Not Qet Away Before Middle of Next Week. think he stated practically the same t h "^ S" thing, or, at leant, that he did' not give any such advice aa Watson claims. The next paragraph of the statement of Mr. Watson sounds more like a mil itary or naval commander. It was | Nelson, I believe, who said In a great naval conflict, "England expects every man to do his duty today.” Mr. Wat- aon, In his imperial way, says: ”1 will expect all Populists, who then indorsed me, to stand by me,” but will they do I ft, and will they stand by all he says, 1 whether authorised to say it or not? The main point in this Interview of Mr. Watson that interests me Is the following paragraph: “The most active ! workers for the convention were John Fullwood, who Is a Republican and holds an office under Roosevelt os postmaster of Cedartown, and Yancey Carter, long a Republican deputy mar shal under A. E. Ruck, then a Populist, who was denounced by me In the Peo ple's Party paper for his shameful vote against the anti-bar room bill after he had been elected to the state senate on the first place, there isn’t a pubflc man In the state, Including Tom Watson, who does not know that when I was appointed deputy by Marshal Buck I was a Democrat, and any statement to the contrary Is absolutely false. N •«-. m to the denouncement oy Watson In his paper at the time of my vote against the anti-bar room bill, I have this to say, that denouncement con tained more than one absolute un truth. When he said then, and when he says now, that I made my race on that Issue, that is, the anti-bar room bill, he was and Is guilty of uttering a Migrate untruth. 1 recoiled well aJJ about that campaign, and I know what Watson will say, and all that he bases this charge on, Is that I was chairman of the platform committee at the state convention when the plank declaring against open bar rooms was Inserted for the first time In a Populist plat form. When he said In that denounce ment In his paper that I favored the plank and worked to get It In the plat form he stated what he knew to be un true. if he repeats it now he will utter an untruth, and every member of that committee knows this to be true. An other thing about this campaign I rec ollect is that I was a candidate for the •ennte before this convention met and had declared myself most postlvely, In the presence of the executive commit tee of Bart county, composed of forty men, my opposition to adding anything to our platform at the coming state convention, particularly anything look- in* to the Indorsement of the so-called Rush Btl|, which was at that time agi tating the public mind. On another oc casion, In a public speech In the acad emy near Airline, In Hart county, I warned my friends against this folly and declared my hostility thereto. La ter on In a Joint discussion with Hon. A 0. McCurry, my opponent In this campaign, I most positively declared that I would vote against this bill. There were mor4 than 100 men present «t each of these meetings. If I made my race on that Issue, as Mr. Watson •ays 1 did, when and where did I ad vocate It? Now, as to the servlet and help ren dered me by Mr. Watson In my race for the senate, he did make two •peechet In my senatorial district. I *a* present at both meetings. In neither of his speeches did he say one word about the anti-bar room plank or Yancey Carter. He was at that time a candidate for vice president: discussed national issues, and It was then, as It Is nos. at it always has been and as It al ways will be—Watson, Watson, Wat son. " hen Mr. Watson charges that Full- wood and I are the agents, or emlssa- of the Howell-McWhorter ring he Jitters a statement that he and every- sody must know to be untrue. It 111 becomes Mr. Watson to charge me - or any other man, with being the f*cnt or emissary of any ring, when ne “ now i n the bed and “under the J ver * with Hoke Smith, who charged ®{ ,n In hla Augusta speech with run- mng for pay in the Interest of Roose- When In the history of any party 2® ®ny man, claiming to be a member of that party, denounce a convention jailed by it* executive committee as a J2 1 •ehems? And why Is this • foul teheme? Because I. that Is. Mr. Wat- *> n . promised Hoke Smith that the Jopuiiita should vote for him. Mr, "atson advises ail Populists to vote In tote primary, nnd for Hoke Smith. In Jther words, he advises the Populists 10 declare them selves organized Dem- ! Ifvats. My position is that such action F?uld be dishonorable In the extreme. 2* course, I concede the right to any ftemocrat to vote In tills primary for -hom he pleases. r**gardle.“H of the fact *h*ther he ban affiliated with the Pop- !f*t party heretofore or not. but under Jf* Pledge to be taken no I’opu.l.t can “ *t- or will do It.

Hartwell, Ua, June 26, 199*. toward the old-line Democrat, has been to prejudice those who have never voted the Populist ticket by crying "Watch the line-up”—Wright, Watson, Hines, Peek, etc., nnd now In this arti cle because I said Hoke Smith stood for reform In the state that the Pops had advocated all the time, The Con stitution thinks It hoe fyund a mare's nest Indeed. In big capitals, the editor says, "As Mr. Ward so frankly nays, Mr, Smith atands for the same principles that the Populist party atood for, nnd for this reason I am going to vote for him.' Then he asks what have the Demo crats to say about this? Then he says If It means anything it means that Mr. Hoke Smith Is openly and braxenly seeking the aid of Democrats on a platform that during the past fifteen or twenty years the Democratic party has been wrong and the Populist party haa been right. Then he say», "Do tho Democrats of Georgia believe this?” It will be seen at a glance thnt Mr. Howell aeeka to prejudice the old-line Democrats against Hoke Smith because he Is contending for some of the re forms thnt the Populists advocated, to- wit: Abolition of free passes, against corporation funds In elections, against lobbying and so on. Your readers are Informed as to the old People’s Pnrty platform and a further discussion Is not necessary. But turn to the other side of the picture. In the old- days, U,v Private Leased Wire. Washington, June 27.—Congress will stay In session until Its work la fin ished. This Is the dictum of Speaker Cannon and his lieutenants, and Is be ing emphasized at this time to court teract any Impression that the pure food bill at least might go over until the next session. It Is still hoped that congress will adjourn Friday or Saturday afternpon, but unless strong pressure Is brought to bear on those conferees liming sev eral Important bills In hand, the ses sion will run Into next week. The conferences holding up legisla tion are those on the following meas ures:* The railroad rata bill, the sundry clvil appropriation, the meat Inspection proposition nnd the Immigration and naturalisation bills, In the railroad rate squahble the .jestlon Is to determine whether ] ‘ lines shall be made common carrl Senator Tillman holds that they should. A speedy agreement on this seems hardly probable at present. In the sundry civil conference tho main trouble Is over the amendment giving 11,450,000 to the Jntnestown Ex position. It is thought that this will bs disagreed to In conference nnd passed by the full vote of the house. The most that can be said of the •Ituatlon at present Is that adjourn ment Saturday Is probable, but m m- bers tvpuld hardly be surprised to see the session last untll the middle of next week.

LOCAL MEN LOSE DOUBLES BUT WIN IN THE SINGLES no danger then from Populism, oven had Bryan been elected, whore Ih the danger now, should a candidate for governor on that platform be elected? Mr. Howell cannot claim a change of heart, for he recently wrote an editor ial on Bryan’s vindication and la ap pointed to meet Bryan when he returns home. And Bryan hna been converted to the government ownership of rail roads, since Howell last voted for him. The only difference Is that he wants tho state to own them and the Pops want the nation. Yet Howell says Bryan’s principles have been vindi cated. _. . _ B What say the Democrats to this? when the new party wae springing to Howell has for years been supporting tho front like a young giant, Clark Howell was In the front rank of the Democratic leaders who adopted Ha platform In toto. Hines had polled 90,000 votes, after the culling In 1894. It has been eald that Howell admitted his election. At any rate, two years afterwards, Mr. Howell made a loud, long and vociferous plea for the re formed Democracy led by Bryan, and Invited the Pops to “Come back, we stand for your platform.” The Demo cratic and Populist platforms were nearly alike, except the railroad plank. The Democrats seenied to think that free silver was the main plank, and Mr. Howell was the biggest duck In the puddle. He and Crisp kicked Hoke down stairs. The old-line Democrats did not follow his Populistic lead. Among them In this county was Col onel J. Hans el I Merrill, who at this time seems to be Mr. Howell’s best man In Thomas county. He would have none of It in hls’n, but hied him away to Indianapolis, and organized him a new “old-line Democratic party,” with a gallant Union general at the head and a gallant Confederate general bringing up the rear. My, how Clark did riddle them, hoof, horns and all. because they would not swallow the Populistic plat form. He said they were trying to wreck the Democratic party as Mc Kinley dscoy ducks. Now, the editor of The Constitution says Just what I wanted to say In the Interview. Hoke Smith has committed the unpardonable political sin by ad vocating some of the Populist state re forms. How much better Is Clark's condition, when he has swallowed the national Populist baggage, boots and all. Did Mr. Howell believe In the doc trine he preached then. or he tr Y- tng to fool the people? If there waa Bryan and Populism, nationally, while he sandbags, and denounces as a dem agogue, the candidate that favors some of the Populist state reforms. J. 8. WARD. JR.
