Watson, twMch appeared la your paper dated May N. Pressing bu«- Iw'j and other obllg*13ona have pre-l rented ray WTltlnr thla sooner. A a to Mr. Watsun's complimentary tv marks about Mr. Graves In the first U»" paragraph^ I have no complaint to, spake- I am glad he has found at laaat one Democrat In Georgia who does not b<-i oik to WallatraeU^H Mr. Watacai'a reference to Juda |K» lire I also agree. Itiu how catne thla Splrltleas pettifogger" to be consld- e, vt by the Democratic party, an 1\ n* i: not after twm unauccaaai U iupts to elect Mr. Bryan? And was Mr. Wateon partly responsible for th<o.c defeats? I think so. I think If M r. Watson had come doavn In favor of ttie regular Democratic nominee «<•<■ president and bad thrown his whole soul and strength to the support id Hr' .in and flewall they might havo keen sleeted. But Mr.. Watson claims itui ho did support .Bryan In 1196. ir 111' did, how was It that McDuffie rminty went for MoKtaley by n big majority? And how wvis It that Co- luinbtn and other counthea, where Wnt- •un's Influence controlled, went for Me. tvinlsi The Greatest.of all Reform- e,» once aald: "By their fruits ye shall know them/' It seems that Mr. Wat- roil helped Mr. Bryan by helping to curry ne many counties ua possible for .Mi Klnley. Thla being true, I consider •. Watson parti * -'a nomination. k:< v. been considered'If Bryan had bean elected. A man like Bryan would have tui ci-. lad pry an as president. An I understand It, Mr. Watson's rea son for quitting tht Democratic party wm that ha considered It so corrupt It i-oulil not be reformed. And yet It was r« formed tn 1IM, and he can t deny It. Then why'did not Mir. Watson return to It and acknowledge that he was mis- t.iki n when ho aald it could not be re- foi nifd? It strikes me that would have I>e,in the patriotic way of doing. In- i* i end of returning to the party, Mr. \\ iiteon acouaea It of stealing. He nctu- •llv teams to regret that the party reformed In IIM. nnd claims that imocrau stole the P If Mr. Wtttson thli conduct as that.was a mark of patriot lam uu Ms part. 1 beg to differ with him. .mi Watson claims that Ms support n( Hoke Smith In the present contest U simitar to Ms support of 1 learnt In lk' l. Ua says nobody questioned his sincerity or hla niutlve when he sup- inn ted Hears!, but that because of Ms supper! of Sinltli the batteries of abuse are trained Upon him. 1 fall to see • in Hlmilarlty In Ate two contests. Mr. (I.-Hist was and Is a real reformer, but nm co with Mr. Hoke Smith. Mr. Wat- >0,1 recently wrote? "No matter what llok. has done or add In the post, lib Is Banting our fight n»w. and we muet h id up hie hands.” This shows that li> v neon Is ready to admit that Mr. Smith's record le lead. "No matter a nut he has done arisaldt'' I think It B<>rc matter. If It does not matter, i hen why ronalder a man's record at ii when he aspires for> office. Why am take the first mnn that happens armiK with a loud proclamation of re form even though lie may ba an se ta re.; convict? Mi Watson says: “Having been |nr itrown on principle, 1 went to the Support of Hoke Smith on principle— the platform of the one being that of the oilier.’’ He aaya: "While I deeply #<n»cntad tha speech which Hoke Smith ■ported to have made In Augue- port him for governor Inelplea he advocated.” — understand It. the three leadiiiK planks uf tha above platform i. smashing the Wall street ring. J Negro disfranchisement, a. llegulatlon of railroad rates. Hut Mr. Pope Brown was opposed to Set;i disfranchisement. Mr. Watson Virtually admits that when he says: •Pope itrown shied at the disfranchise- true ri-porteo to neve In. I should support keratins of the prlnrlp . 'Now. as I underat mant plank." So, It seems, Mr. Wat son was In error when he mid above "The platform of the one being that of the other.” Now, because Mr. Wataon fallad to atata tha exact truth In this. It would be too hard on him to say that he haa a "putrid Imagination, where lies are bred faster than stagnant water breeds mosquitos." And yet that la tha way Mr. Wataon speaks of Mr. Howell Mr. Watson Intimates that tha Popu, Hats hava a right to vote In the Dem ocratic primary, regardless of tha pledge primed on tha ticket. Now, are we left to Infer from this that If Mr. Howell were only telling Ilea for Mr. Watson’s benefit, he would Have Mr. Watson'a hearty approval? But let ua consider that platform. First, I will consider the plank No. 1 Bmushlng of the corrupt corporatl. Wall street ring. Now, what la thla Wall street ring which Mr. Wataon aaya the people of Georgia are "hall bent" on smashing? Wa learn from tha article to which I am now replying that It la the atata Democratio execu tive committee. And what Is tha s,ate Democratic executive committee but the embodiment of organised Democ racy In Georgia? Ho It aeema that Mr. Hoke Hmlth'a platform call* for the destruction of the Democratic party In Georgia. Did any one ever before hear of a man working for the destruc tion of the party whose nomination he Is seeking? Mr. Wateon denies thla In what he atylea falsehood number live, but I must say If hla platform doaa not mean that, 1 am unable to tell what It does mean. Mr. Wataon apsaka of the state executive committee dreading tha Independent white voter, etc. Then he auppoaa a case and dlscuaaaa whether or not the Populists ought to disre gard the conditions printed on tha tick- Then he aaya: ‘‘What does the Wall street ring say about It? Will It drive me away from tho polls because I refuse to be blind-folded?" It la use less for Mr. Wataon to deny that ha here refers to the state Democratic executive committee. To smash the state Democratic esaeutlvs committee to smash the Democratic party .... organisation In Georgia. It the de struction of the Democratic party Is not thought of or not Intended, then whr does Mr. Wataon publish letters whlcl apeak of the "new party?" In tha June number of Wntaon'i Magazine T. J. f party ! ils? I the new party that Mr. Wataon la form after he smashes the Democratic party In Ueorgla. or perhaps It would be more correct to say the party that Is to be formed by Measra. Hoke Smith anil Wataon. Ah tu Mr. Clark Howell's being In the lltlcally. It strikes me that If there la any such rmg In Ueorgla Mr. Howell rcrtalnly lias a right to be tn It. The Democratic party of the Uunlted States appointed Mr. ('lark Howell as Us na tional committeeman for Georgia, and as aucli ha should keep up with what going on political/ It ti* haa to Ine" the ring to do It. And, ufter nil, suppose Messrs. Wat aon and links Smith succeed In smash ing the ring Is there any evidence to Hmlth succeeds In displacing Mr. How ell, would nut ha really come nearer representing Wall street Interests than Mr. Howall now doaa? I think so. Ws hava never heard of Mr. Howall ob taining through the agency of the iresldent of The Southern railroad ty or tlfty thousand dollar loan from .. Plsrpunt Morgan. And yet Mr. Smith admits that hs did receive such a loan and gAe as collateral tha atock of hla paper, when at tha time he swore tha tax value of hie paper to be only 930,000, and he put up only two- thirds or three-fourths that he then owned as security. Mr. Hmlth'a "Greater Georgia Banquet" speech In Atlanta wherein he thanked the presi dent of the Southern railroad "for hav ing done so much to purify the politics of the slate" showed how Mr. Smith really stands with the Sam Spencer' Wall street crowd.

Ha apeaka of averybody giving adit In 1004 for being sincere when he supported Hesrst. I wonder If he thinks he deserves such credit now? If Mr. Wataon can find one white man In Georgia besides himself who Is afraid of negro domination un der tha present primary plan I would “‘is to know who he le. Mr. Watson says: “If the principle of the white primary be right, why would a law to that effect be wrong?" ... .. agali constitution of the United States. If the national constitution could be Changed to admit of It, I suppose ev ery white man In Georgia wquld ba In :'avor of nagro disfranchisement. Even If a law could bo passed that would stand tha test of a decision of the su preme court, It would be folly to causa any suspicion where than la no neces sity for It. Tha case la different In Mississippi and South Carolina. In those statee the necrose are In the majority and there Is a real necessity tor some such device, but In Georgia tha whites are In the majority and no such necessity exists. A bill has been pending fur years to reduce Southern representation In congress on the ground that the negro haa been da privad of hla vote. For corns cause or other that bill haa failed to become a law. Who knowa but that Its .author ply waiting for Georgia and oth- Jthem states to pass ouch laws as would make tham subject to such reduction? In Wataon'a Magazine for June Mr. Watson said: "It did not make a par' tide of difference whether our repre sentation In congress were less than It Is now or not." This being Mr. Wat son'a notion It la not strange that ha favora negro disfranchisement In Geor gia so that tha Crumpaoker bill will lply to our atata as well aa other lutnern states. Mr. Wataon aaya: "Clark Howall and hla brethren of tha committee sacrificed Bryan In nil." I auppoaa ha means by this that they failed to get Mr. Wataon'a support by falling to put Mr. Wataon on their ticket with Bryan. It was bat they failed to adopt the rig! kind of platform. It was not that tht failed to nominate the right kind of man for president. Mr. WatOon now oaks of principles, blows about the all street rings and leaves ua to In fer that he was In favor of securing real reforms. And yet we find that In lit* these matter* were lost sight nf In the fact that the Democrats failed put him on their ticket. Is not thla selRihnesa personified? Mr. Watson, t suppose, claims that the Democrats promised that they would put him on their ticket and failed to do It, Wat son may claim this and tha Democrats may deny It, but what difference should that have made with a patriot, anyway? Suppose they did promise that and tailed to do It, did that Juatl- r Mr. Wataon In helping to elect Me- inley? Because somebody alas doaa wrong lo no reason that I should fall lo do my duly. Mr. Wilson makes a great ado about Clark Howwell'a al lowing the articles of Theodore Price printed In The Constitution _ advertisements. And yet tn Wataon'a Magaslne for March he aaya: "Hoke Smith's position aa a candidate for governor la one thing: hla |m*ltl«n aa attorney In law esse, la bnotber." He thinks It wss nil right for Hoke Smith •ere of logic and per- railroads, thus helping them to violate our constitution bv "a Joint ownership of competing . lines, thus establishing the monopoly which the constitution forbids" U makes no difference wlih Mr. Wataon that Tht Atlanta Journal, Mr. Smith’s organ, tried to get these some advertisements, but failed. Is not thla a dear case of straining at a gnat and swallowing n camel? Theodore Price Anally chang er to the bull side uf the cotton market, and It It tu be doubted wheth er those lettere really did much harm after all. On the other hand, Mr. Smith and Mr. Watarai both are very loud in proclaiming to ua tha evils that have resulted from Mr. Smith's plead- TU. thus attempted to defend Mr. Clark Howall because I really think he Is a good man. 1 think Mr. Wataon'a malicious attack on him Is Inspired solely by the deep-seeled hatred that Wataon hae for the Democratic party. A* Hoke Smith was realty aa enemy of the Democratic party from the time he went with Cleveland In 1**3 till Parker won nominated, and still hates the principles of true Democracy, It seems that be and Wataon hava coma for tha Democratic party. Though they have been Aghttng one another politically for years, It seems that their mutual hatred for the Democratic par ty has brought them together. Aa I understand It, the railroad plank of the Wataon-Smlth platform Is good Democratic doctrine. But how Is It that Mr. Smith haa only Just now decided to help secure this reform? Both the national Democratic plat forms of 1896 and 1900 had thla prin ciple Incorporated In them. Mr. Clark Howell with his paper led the Aght for the reform measures that were adopted Into those platforms. Shoulder To shoulder IV. J. Bryan end Clark Howell <-etormed the citadels of the enemies of reform. And where was Hoke Smith at that lime? He was ons of the enemy that they had to Aght. I neither believe that Mr. Hoke Smith has suddenly become great reformer nor do I believe Clark Howell has suddenly become a bad man. And It la hard for me to decide that Tom Watson believes any auch stuff either. Respectfully, F. W. CARSWELL. Ilephslbah, Go., June 38, 190*. Still on Crutohes.
