His Platform is “Down With the Boll Weevil, Cow Ticks and Booze, and Hurrah For Free Passes.” Tbe following latere.'. »hlih Mlt ben ri gl&n: ■ A reporter fo elved by The onslderable idly leorglan. haying heard it Intimated that Frank L. Har- *Uon would at the proper time enter the race for governor, called at his of fice and put the direct question to him: “Are you a candidate for governor?** to which he replied, "Yes, I am a can didate tor governor ot the great, pro- •elf, has been received by The Geor gia. "I am running as an Independent, unorganized Democrat on the Republi can platform—a big stick and a square deal, subject to the Democratic pri mary—if I am nominated. If I should fall in the primary, 1 will continue In the race until after the general elec tion. •I am a strong believer In free paf-"f» on hailroads—they are more c..n\-nunt than thousand-mile honks; an<l . have always lm dim suspicions about those books. I shall Immedi ate!* make application to .Mr. Samuel gper er for annual passes over his Js In Georgia, and begin a red hot canvass of the state. ••Ti e main Issue In my campaign will be my patent medicine plank. You are an are that patent medicine Is the greatest menace at this moment to the welfare and happiness of the people of tills state. Railroad control and nigger disfranchisement are nothing to compare to the evil effects ot patient medicine. Every Issue that my oppo nent.- are storming the stump with rales into Insignificance when com pared to patent medicine. AU they are Healing with Is Imaginary evils, creatures of their own Imagination, warning the people of what may hap pen to them: mine is what has. Is and ontlnue to make morphine vic tims; of children, take the roses from the Checks ot fair women, make pe- runa drunkards of our ministers—and then I what? i«o am In favor of a strict pa- 1 the state line of Georgia for •so of keeping nut that new mosquito that the doctors found last year in' New*.

And can you remember a single In stance where either one of my oppo nents has ever mentioned one of these live issues in this campaign? Every one of them has had the distemper since the campaign opened; but neither one of them has known the cause of the same. Yes, I believe In' the extermination of the cow ticks. "No, ] am not going to dodge tho liquor question; I believe In local op tion, high license and good whisky. I believe every* man who Is granted a license to sell whisky should be re- * I u i i • 11 -••11 from tin f.uuft in the barrel that has a double stomp on the head of It; and to put any man In the penitentiary for not less than five years who sold or attempted to sell anything but straight whisky. This would knock all the hell out of tho whisky. "If the Populist party Is anxious for a first-class man to accept the nomi nation when they meet here on tho Glorious Fourth of July, I am the fel low. as I stand ready to accept any nomination from any party. "After the final election I am going to take my annual passes and go to each militia district in the state and have all the farmers In their respec tive districts meet me before the jus tice of the peace and mak out an Item ized statement of the amount that any railroad has injured them, and have them then and there swear to tho same. Then after I have finished this work and have been inaugurated I will call upon Mr. Sam Spencer to pay the same. If he refuses or even hesi tates I WILL PASS A LAW MYSELF to have every railroad In the state of Georgia abolished. And then what? 1 am very* anxious that the voters ot Georgia will not pledge themselves any further than the Democratic pri mary’, for I may have to continue in the race. And then what? 1 am anxious about my friend* over (he state of Georgia. Under no cir cumstances would I have them to poll the people In my Interest.

Giles, of Elberton, Is the pres ent president of the association, and one of the first things to be attended to will be the election of a new president, as Mr. Giles will not stand for re-elec tion.

The West End play ers got all their lilta at tbe most oppor tune times, and every error pf the 4. Hegensteln team told for a run. Oogga, for West End, struck out seventeen men, while Walker, of J. Hegensteln. nearly equaled him with sixteen, and It would hare been a closer game but for Walker’s poor support. He pitched with a seal rare In amateur ball. Following Is the score: J.
