TO TOM WATSON
Denies Populis Lead

Disfranchisement.
To the Editor of The Georgian:
Since The Georgian -has had an In
terview with Hon. Thomas E. Watson
In which he seriously rellects upon me,
I desire a brief space fof reply.
I wish to say In the first place
that T have found but one Populist
leader who admits that he advised Sir.
Watson prior to his speech of Septem
ber 1, 1301. on the disfranchisement
question. I have not consulted Sir.
Sibley nor Mr. SIcGregor as to the
truth of Sir. 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 Sir. Watson
consult before he made that speech,
pledging the Populist party to the dls-
franchtsement of the negro?" His re
ply was: "Nobody—none of the lead
ers, certainly not me. I tried to get
him to tell me what he was going to
lay In his speech and he refused." Sly
recollection Is that Chairman Holloway
was present at this conference, and I .. . W -.

think no stnieu practically the same toward th« nid.tino n.mnc™i.

TAKES TO TASK
THE CONSTITUTION
Replies Strongly to
Editorial in How
ell’s Paper.
To the Editor of The Georgian:
1 have no disposition to make your
paper a Smith organ, but as your rep-
resentatlve sought ms between the
plow handles to obtain the Interview In
re » a ra to the Populist state ticket,
which has Men made the basis 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 Hou*el! machinery and cause
It to run to a successful end, I ask
space In your paper to meet the editor
of The Constitution (said to be Mr.
Howell) with his own arguments.
Let's see If Mr. Howell's lightning
won't do him as applied by his own
rule. It Is needless to rshearse to your
readers the tactics of Mr. Howell’s
campaign since his stand-pat, let-welt-
enough-alone platform .has failed to
rally o majority of the Populists to his
standard. His policy toward them has
been to discourage their, taking part In
the primary. Notwithstanding the fact
that their organisation ha* been broken
up for six years, the big Howell organs
have been working hard for some time
to reorganize the Pops, and as there Is
to bo a ticket put In the field, I sup
pose they think their triumph Is at
iny such advice as Watson claims. H
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
son, In bis Imperial way, says: *'I will
expect all Populists, who then Indorsed
me, to stand by me," but will they do
It. and will they stand by all he says,
whether authorized 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
Fullaood, who is a Republican and
holds an office under Roosevelt as
postmaster of Cednrtown, and Yancey
Carter, long a Republican deputy mar
shal under A. E. Buck, then a Populist,
who was denounced by mo In the Peo
ple's Party paper for his shameful vote
against the nntl-bar room bill after he
had been elected to the state senate on
that Issue, with my active help." .In
the first place, there Isn't a public 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. Now,
u to the, denouncement oy Watson In
his paper at the time of my vote
against the anti-bar room bill, I have
tills 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 rac* on
that Issue, that Is, the anti-bar room
bill, he was and Is guilty of uttering a
deliberate untruth. I recollect well all
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
sgnlnst 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 etated what he knew to be un
true. If he repeats It now he will utter
an untruth, and every member of that
committee knowe this to be true. An
other thing about this campaign I rec
ollect Is that I was a candidate for the
sennte before this convention met and
had declared myself most poetlvely. In
the presence of the executive commit
tee of Hart county, composed of forty
men, my opposition to adding anything
to our platform at the coming state
conventloh, particularly anything look
ing to the Indorsement of the so-called
flush Bill, 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. L«-
ter on In a Joint dtscuealon with Hon.
4. G. McCurry, my opponent In this
campaign, I most positively declared
that l would vote against this bill,
a— - —a—«
made
„„ ... ,1'otaon
I did, when and where did I ad
vocate It?
Notv, as to the service and help ren
dered me by Mr. Watson In my race
for the senate, he did make two
speeches In my senatorial district,
was present at both meetings,
neither of his speeches did he say one
«ord about the anti-bar room plank or
Yaneey Carter. He was at that time a
candidate for vice president: discussed
national lssues,,nnd It was then, a* It Is
now, as It always has been and as It al
ways will be—Watson. Watson, 3\ at-
*on.
When Mr. Watson charges that Full-
wood and I arc the agents, or emissa
ries, of the Howell-McWhorter ring he
utters a statement that he and every
body must know to be untrue.
It III becomes Mr. Watson to charge
me. or any other man, with being the
•gent or emissary of any ring, when ns
!» now In the bed and "under the
hirer" with Hoke Smith, who charged
Mm In hla Augusta speech with run
ning for pay in the Interest of Roose
velt.
When In the history of any P*rty
did any man, claiming to be a member
of that party, denounce a convention
called by Its executive committee tea
foul scheme? And why Is this a tout
•rheme? Because I, that Is, Mr. Wat-
•on, promised Hoke Smith that the
Populists should vote for him. Mr.
Ration advises all Populists to vote In
>bl« Primary, and for Hoke Smith. In
other words, he advisee the Populists
to declare themselves organized Dem
ocrats. My position Is that such actio”
would be dishonorable In the extreme.
®f course, I concede the right to any
Democrat to vote In this primary tor
whom he plea**!', rcgardleoa of tha fact
whether he hasafflllated withtfis Pop
ulist party heretofore or not, but under
the pledge to be taken no Populist can
do It. or w in lie It. All I Insist on (s
that every tnan who vote* In that elec
tion should do so In abv-dute good faitn.
*nd no ream- hone-t or sincere man
Will vote any other way.

toward the old-line Democrats has been
to prejudice those who have never
voted the Populist ticket by crying
"Watch the line-up"—Wright, Watson,
Hines, Peek, etc., and 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 has found a mare's
nest Indeed.
In big capitals, the editor says, “As
Mr. Ward so frankly says, Mr. Smith
stands for the same principles that the
Populist party stood for, and 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 brazenly
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 has
been right. Then he says, "Do the
Democrats of Georgia believe this?"
It will be seen at a glance that Mr.
Howell seeks to prejudice the old-line
Democrats egelntt Hoke Smith because
he Is contending for some of the re
forms that the Populists advocated, to-
wit: Abolition of free posses, against
corporation funds in elections, against
lobbying and so on. Your readers are
Informed as to the old . People's Party
platform and a further discussion Is
not necessary. But turn to the other
side of the picture. In the old days.

Washington, June 17.—Congress will
■tay in session until Its work la fin
ished. This Is tha dictum of Speaker
Cannon and hit lieutenants, and la be
ing emphasized at thlz time to coun
teract any Impression that the pure
food bill at least might go over until
the next session.
It Is still hoped that eongreaa will
adjourn Friday or Saturday afternoon,
but unless strong pressure Is brought
to bear on those conferees having sev
era! Important bills In hand, the aes
slon will run Into next, wesk.
The conferences holding up legists
tlon are those on the following mens
ures:
The railroad rate bill, the sundry
civil appropriation, the meat jn,paction
proposition and the Immigration and
naturalization bills.
In the railroad rate squabble the
question Is to determine whether pipe
lines shall be made common carriers.
Senator Tillman holds that they should.
A speedy agreement on this seemB
hardly probable at present.
In the sundry civil conference the
main trouble Is over the amendment
giving 11,150,000 to tho Jamestown Ex
position. It Is thought that this will be
disagreed to In conference and passed
by the full vote of the house.
The most that can be said of tho
situation at present Is that adjourn
ment Saturday Is probable, but num
bers would hardly he surprised to see
the session last until the middle of next
week.

Walthour Wins His Race
But He Has to Ride Some
In one of the prettiest races of the season
on the Coliseum track. Hobby Walthour de
feated Jimmy Moran, of Chelsea, Mass.,
straight hoats Tuesday night. Iloth
heats were close and exciting, n bad spill
of Moran near the close of the second race
only adding to the spirit of excitement
which pervaded the Immense auditorium.
Tho first heat was run off In the fast tlmo
of 7:46 34 and as neither rider hnd the ad*
vantage until the last mile, the result was
In doubt almost until the last tap. I!y a
great burat of apeed In which Walthour
literally flew arnuud the deep saucer the
champion of tin* world won out bv u tjinr
ter of a lap amid deafening applauso of
the great crowd present.
The 'second raco wag bidding fair to bo
even more exciting than tho first when an
accident to Moran's front tire sent him
spinning to the floor. Walthour and~ hfs
pynderous paring machine were directly be
hind the fallen rider and only by the
closest of margins was another accident
averted. Moran was picked up. nod after a
short rest announced his determination to
re-eater the contest. Ills principal Injuries
were the loss of considerable flesh from hla
face, arms and left leg with the usual
bruises which accompany such a severe fall,

beginning ot the last mile with Walthour
about a quarter of a lap ahead. When the
rnco was resumed tha champion graciously
requested that they start even, and nl
though Moran gamely pedaled to the finish,
he was unable to stnnd the terrific pace
set by Walthour and was beaten by half a
lap. The time ot the second aud final heat
was 7*44.
Previous to the main event of tho evening
the saucer was given over to the amateurs,
who raced three one-mile hoata. Billot was
declared the winner of tills event, with
Norton second and Taylor third. Time,
2:21 24.
On Wednesday night the public of Atlanta
will tie treated to the last exhibition of
professional racing for many months, as
Walthour leaves next week for Europe,

Howell was In the front rank of tho
Democratic leaders who adopted Its
platform in toto. Hines had polled
*0,000 vote*, after the culling In 1894.
It has been said that Howell admitted
his election. At any rate, two years
afterward*. Mr. Howell made a loud,
long nnd vociferous plea for the re
formed Democracy led by Bryan, and
Invited the Pope to "Come back, we
stand for your platform." The Demo
cratic and Populist platforms were
nearly alike, except the railroad plank.
The Democrats seemed to think that
free silver was the main plank, and Mr.
Howell was the biggest duck In ths
puddle. He and Crisp kicked Hoke
down atatrs. The old-line Democrats
did not follow hla Populistic t*a<S.
Among thsm In this county was Col-
onel J. Hansell Merrill, who at this
time seems to be Mr. Howell's best man
In Thomas county. He would hsv#
none of It In hls'n, but hied him away
to Indianapolis, snd organised 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 rtadte
them, hoof, horns and all, becnuso they
would not swallow the Populistic plat
form. He said they were trying to
wreck the Democratic party os Mc
Kinley decoy duck*.
Now, the editor of The Constitution
says Just what I wanted to say In ths
Interview. Hoke Smith has committed
the unpardonable political sin by ad
vocating some of the Populist state re
forms. How much better Is Clarks
condition, when he has swallowed the
national Populist baggage, boots and
all. Did Mr. Howell believe In the doc
trine he preached then, or was be try'
tag to toot the people? If there was
Bryan nnd Populism, nationally, whllo
he sandbags, and denounces rut a dem
agogue, the candidate that favors some
