'POPS” WRITE LETTERS TALKS PLAINLY TO TOM WATSON Denies Populis Lead ers Endorsed Negro 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 -. >hink ho Stated nmotioniic tho band. On the other hand their policy think no stnieu practically the same toward th« nid.tino n.mnc™i. thing, or, at least, that he did not give J. $. WARD, JR., 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. RespeetfulyL . YANi’kY 1 VUTLR. Hartwell. Qa.. June Sd. l»v*. 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.

CONFERENCE BILLS CAUSE DELAY IN ADJOURNMENT Lawmakers May Not Oet Away Before Middle of Next Week. LOCAL MEN LOSE DOUBLES BUT WIN IN THE SINGLES By Private Lrssed Wire. 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, 1 In* n> « hlt-nt i" Moral -tim'd at tin* 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, where he will enter In soreral races.

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 of tho Populist state reforma J. 8. WARD. JR.
