CROWDS FLOCK TO HEAR
BIO JOINT DEBATE
Continued from Page One.
Clark Howell entered at 11:65 a.m.
and the cheers were equally as enthu
siastic. Both candidates took seats on
tho stage after fighting their way
through the crowd.
At 12:10 o’clock A. P. Voson.
Dougherty county. Introduced Smith.
By this time the crowd had swelled to
nearly 4,000. Outgoing trains were un
til after the speaking.
Smith w ns greeted with cheers.
Hoke Smith 9peaks.
Mr. Smith began by .saying that
year ago he demanded a square deal
between the railroad companies and tho
people. He declared he had not sought
to do Injustice to railroad companies,
but had demanded that they cease to
tax the Industries of the people of
Georgia with excessive charges.
He said thnt those who support the
corporation side do not favor prevent
ing excessive bond and stock Issues
and feel no hostility to dividends on
watered stocks and bonds. They qui
etly permit high freight nnd passen
ger charges on the part of the rail
road cotnpanles to pay dividends and
Interests on the watered stocks and
bonds, lit' asserted.
Controls Freight Rates.
Your railroad commission has con
trol of the freight rate from hero to
.Savannah.” said .V “A study of the
freight rnteji on cotton In Georgia will
showr that ft reduction of from 30 to 60
cents per bale can be made and yet
leave the railroad earning a fair profit.
This would savfe the farmers of Georgia
over $500,000 .a year.**
He said the Southern, Central and
Atlantic Coast Line "have millions of
dollars of watered stocks and bonds,
and are proceeding t" make these
storks and bonds valuable bv the taxes
they levy upon the people fur currying
passengers obd freight.
"If you wish to place the Democratic
party whero It can permanently stand
for the right of the masses of the
people In tills state, you must drive
the use of money by corporations out
of politics In Georgia- You must en-
lnrge and broaden the definition of
lobbying, and lessen the power of the
man or men employed to look after the
Interests of the corporations ln connec
tlon with legislative matters. You
must put an end to convention noml
nations, and require that all nomine
tlons be made at the ballot box by the

fort to put Patrick Calhoun, a railroad
lawyer and vice president of the Rich

Exempted New Roads.
Mr. Howell stated his position on the
Glenn Mil providing for taxing r
roads by counties and laid It
brought $16,000,000 revenue to the
atate. It was true he had voted to
exempt new roads which were then
owned by Geergla men who were build
ing up those roads. The exemption
was for only' five years. He said he
voted for the franchise tax bill and
secured Its passage.
"I joined In the fight for freight
rate reduction long before he ever
chirped on the subject," said Howell.
“No man has done more than 1 In be
half of the people. No man will do
more than I will. In all my record
for twenty years Mr. Smith cannot cite
you any Instance where I have not
stood for the people as against the
corporations. I am opposed to dis
franchisement legislation now, ss Mr.
Smith himself believed six years ago
that It Is unwtae. There Is not a coun
ty In the state where white supremacy

may read from end to end fo the edu

Mr. Howell said there waa hardly a
business In the South which had not

A few years ago. he said, Mr. Smith
