THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN. frank haralson is out Additional Sporting News FOR THE GOVERNORSHIP FOR FULL PAGE OF 8P0RT8 8EE PAGE TWELVE. His Platform is “Down With the Boll Weevil, Cow Ticks and Booze, and Hurrah For Free Passes.” The following card of considerable Interest, which speaks loudly for It self, haa ben Tecelved by The Geor- * A reporter for The Georgian, having heard It inti.reted that Frank L. Har alson would at ill* proper time enter the race for governor, called at his of fice and put the direct question to blot: “Are you a candidate /or governor?" to which he replied, "Yes, 1 am a era self, haa been received by gta. Oeor- "I am running as an Independent, unorganised Democrat on the Republi can platform—a big stick and a square deal, subject to the Democratic pri mary—if I am nominated. It 1 should fall In the primary, I will continue In the race until after the general elec tion. -I em a strong believer In free parses on hallroeds—they are more convenient than thousand-mile books; and 1 have ala-ays ha dmy suspicions about those books. I shall Immedi ately make application to Mr. Samuel Spencer for annual passes over hts entire system of roads In Georgia, and begin a red hot canvasa of the state. -The main Issue In my campaign will be my patent medicine plank. You are aware that patent medicine Is the greatest menace at thla moment to the welfare and happiness of the people of this state. Railroad control and nigger disfranchisement are nothing to compare to the evil effects of patient medicine. Every Issue that my oppo nents are storming the stump with pales Into Insignificance when com pared to patent medicine. All they are dealing with 1* Imaginary evils, creatures of their own Imagination, warning the people of what may hap pen to them; mlno Is what has. Is and will continue to make morphine vic tims of children, take the roses from the cheeks of fair women, make pe- runn drunkards of our ministers—and then what? „ • "1 also am In favor of a strict pa trol of the state line of Georgia for the purpose of keeping out that new mosquito that the doctors found last year In New Orleans. The only thing thev will have to do will be to stop- him on the border and call him by that new name they have given him —I forget what that is. but we can drill the patrol until they learn to pro be re nounce It; and I have no doubt that not a single mosquito will enter the state after being called that name. • What the farmers of this state want to hear about are live Issues— such as the boll weevil and cow ticks. 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 haa known the cause of the aame. Yea, I believe In the extermination of the cow ticks. “No, I am not going to dodge the lienor question; I believe In local op tion. high license and good whisky. I believe every man who Is granted license to nell whisky should qulred to sell from the faucet In the barrel that has a double stamp on the head of It; and to put any man In the penitentiary for nol less than five years who sold or attempted to sell anything but straight whisky. Thla would knock all the hell out of the 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 ised statement of the amount that any railroad has Injured them, and have them then and there swear to the 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? I am very anxious that the voters of Georgia will not pledge themselves any further than the Democratic pri mary, for I may have to continue In the race. And then what? I am anxious about my friends over the state of Georgia. Under no cir cumstances would I have them to poll the people In my Interest. "Now. Mr. Reporter, I do not want you to give me away about this In terview; I don't want you to tell any body that I sent for you and had this whole thing prepared before you came.” F1NNITES ARE NEXT VICTIMS THAT IS, THE NASHVILLE PLAY ERS ARE HERE, AND MAY BE THEY WILL LOSE.

It is announced that the morning g July 4 will start at 10JO. Hughes will do the pitching for Atlanta. The afternoon contest will be palled off at the usual hour. Hoc" Childs wfl! be on the slab In thla session. WE8T ENP W0N iT8 game. West End won a very faat game, played Saturday afternoon with J. Regensteln Company. The score was 0 to 3 Jn favor of West Bnd. The victory was due to the superb pitching of Roggs and the careful support t*ck of him. The West End play ers got all their hits at the most oppor tune times, and every error of the J. Regensteln team told for a run. Roggs, for West End, atruek out seventeen men, while Walker, of J. Regensteln, nearly equaled him with sixteen, and It would have been a closer game but for Walker's poor support. He pitched with a seal /are In amateur ball. Following Is the score; RURAL CARRIERS TO MEET IN ATLANTA WEDNESDAY The Rural Route Carriers' Associa tion of Georgia will hold Its fourth an nual convention In Atlanta Wednes day, July. 4.

Giles, of Elberton, Is the pres ent president of the association, and one of (he first things to be attended to will be the election of a new president, as Mr. Gllee will not stand for re-elec tion. It la probable that there will be an exciting race between some repre sentatives of north and south Geor- (I*. To Install Insurance Feature. The most Important matter to come before the association will be that of Installing an Insurance feature similar to that In operation among the city carriers, whareby a death benefit of IJ.ooo la paid when one of their num ber dies.
