THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN. FLANDERS TELLS WHY HE ATTACKED GARNETTOUILLIAN Representative From Johnson Recites Long Story * • Bosom friend* for !i years, play mates, confidants, sharing their Joys and sorrows, and helping each others *• uring political preferment at the hand* of their people, W. J. Flanders, reieesentatlv* from Johnson county, a dentist and former Methodist minister, and Judge A. F, Daley, formerly of] t -the state superior court, and now pres Ident of the Wrlghtavllle and Tennllle railroad, are today bitter enemies. The sensational Incident In the house Monday, when Mr. Flanders asked Oar' nett Qullllan to leave the chamber, was one of the many startling happen ings that have grown out of the feud between Judge Daley and the gentle man from Johnson, who first disagreed ten year* ago, when, Mr. Flanders claims, he won a suit In court, with Judge Daley as the opposing council. ’ ,} According to Mr. Flanders, a lov* af fair between Miss Pauline Daley, Judge Daley's daughter, and an Atlanta man, Ed I>. Humphries, yeurs ago, waa really the first cause of the trouble, which had been only suggested by the trial mentioned. Mr. Flanders gave to The Georgian a complete history of the trouble be tween himself and the Daley faction, 'according to which Judge Daley's daughter wss receiving attention from Mr. Humphries, when It became nolsad through Wrlghtavllle, a small city, that the Atlanta lover was already a bene dict. On his next visit to Wrlghtsvlll* Humphries was question by the Judge, who. whatever the reply, forbad* any further attentions. Mr. Flanders was at this time post master of Wrlghtavllle and says he was requested by Judge Daley to let him know If his daughter attempted to write to Mr. Humphries. Ho states that a private box waa rented In the postofflee by Miss Daley, and that the Judge was Informed of the fact, though Mr. Flanders claims he asked that the young lady not be told that he had In formed her father of her secret cor respondence. * A few days later Miss Daley met the poatmaster on the street, and so he said Tuesday morning, gave him a tongue-lashing. Her mother became LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR BILL PASSES THE SENATE Sen. Wheatley’s Im- i portant Bill Adopted 32 to 5. ■litsant, and Mr Flanders relates'that ns the letters did not atop going to th* Atlanta lover, Judge Daley, on learning of It, supposed that hla friend had gone bark on him, and he, too, became cool In hla manner toward Mr. Flanders. From this followed many Incidents by reason of which tha hatred of these men grew In Intensity, until two years later. In a quarterly conference. Rev. A. F. Morgan, who was the pastor of the Wrightsvllle church, refused to pas* th* charcter of Mr. Flanders, the reason assigned, according to Mr. Flanders, being that the latter had ex pressed the opinion that he waa glad every time the sun went down, as It meant one day less that he had to spend with him (Morgan) as • pastor. ;• Judge Daley was chairman of tha board of stewards of the church at the > time, and the presiding elder was Rev. J. M. Lovett, who waa accused by Mr. Flanders Monday morning of being Im plicated In the attempt to Injure hla reputation. W. F. Qullllan waa th* secretary of tbe conference. It Is . claimed by Mr. Flanders that secret sessions were held by these men In an ' attempt to get him out of tha church, and that th* records of the conference - were forged, for later, when the matter was taken to the annual conference, he claims there was another record of th* • meeting, while \V. F. Qullllan admitted that the correct one was at hla home. As a result of this tight In the church, Mr. Flanders says he and Judge Daley were not on speaking terms. They had an agreement that they were to . take different aide* of th* street In go- : lng to their nfRces, and Judge Daley c a* not to pass the house of the repre sentative*. Both, Mr. Flanders says, went armed frequently. Then followed the 250,000 libel suit. Instituted by Mr. Flanders against Judge Daley, In which a verdict was 'gained In the superior court by Judge Daley, but the decision was reversed by the supreme court, and th* case will again be tried by tha lower court. The introduction of a bill by Mr. Flanders to Incorporate Nanny Lou ivarthen Institute In a public school system waa In direct opposition to th* wiahea of the Daley faction In John- *.>n county, and this move on Mr. Flanders' part did not tend to heal over fhe dlsruptured conditions In Johnson county. Last year, during the legislature, Mr. Flanders claims, men were sent to the house by Daley to watch him In an ef fort to get something against him. This was kept up during th* entire session, and on on* occasion, Mr. Flanders says, he slapped on* of these emissaries In the face. This year, he claims, Garnett Qullllan was sent her* as the agent of these men, and declared that he would no longer stand the persecution and at tempt to blacken his character, and for that reason asked that he be ejected from the house. Judge Daley Makes Statement. Spec lal to Th* Georgian. Wrightsvllle, Oa, July 10.—Owing to the prominence of the parties named In the sensational charge of Repre sentative W. J. Flanders, It Is causing letch comment here. Trouble started several years ago, when Mr. Flanders was expelled from th* ministry' and l'wmbershtp In the Methodist church. Hu!’, was entered against Judge A. F Daley for 120,000 for damages, the record of which Is In both supreme and superior courts. The Nannie Lou War- then Institute Is under the supervision of the South Georgia conference. Be low Is the exact statement of Judge A. F. Daley: “I cannot obtain my consent to place myself down to the level of a personal controversy with W. J. Flanders. Hla attacks on me and the other gentlemen named are unfounded In fact or reason, anil can only be attributed to an Insane desire on his part for notoriety.'* Lovett and Morgan Not Found. Stieclal to The Georgian. Savannah, Oa, July 10.—An effort waa made here to see both Messrs. Lovett and .Morgan, but they were not In the city. Rev.

When Senator Wheatley's lleuien ant-governor bill cam* up as the spe cial order the able young atateeman from the' Thirteenth made a very strong argument for Its passage. He pointed out the large num states that have provided for II nnt-governor*, and how Georgia Is lag ging behind in this matter. . Senator Wheatley was given close attention during hla speech. Miller Oppotee It. Senator B. S. Miller opposed the bill. He said hla objection was based on the Idea that no man ought to preside over the senate who le not elected by that body. He said that If the bill paseed, th* lieutenant-governor would begin build ing up a machine to place himself In th* gubernatorial chair. "Governor* don’t die In Georgia,'’ he thundered. "Has Senator Miller forgotten th* days of Alexander Stephens?" “My memory doe* not run as far back as the distinguished senator’s."

"Is not the gentleman now actively supporting for governor the man who presided over th* senate for four years?" "But all presidents of the senate are not candidate* for governor," was the retort. "1 Insist on the senator answering my question," said Senator Wheatley. "As that I* purely a personal quss tlon, I don't think It Is germane to this discussions,” stated Senator Bunn. Senators Bunn, Candler. Bond and A. O. Blalock all spoke In favor of tbe bill. Senator Miller again arose to preen hie point, and stated that tha constitu tion provided for the secretary of state to serve In the event of the death of the governor. Miller for th* Job? "Will the senator read that section?" requested Senator Retd. "I can't llnd it," said Senator Miller, amid laughter. In a colloquy between Senator Mil ler and Senator Candler, the- latter •bowed that the eecretary of atate could not serve. "But It doesn't aay th* secretary of atate shall not serve," Insisted Senator Miller. ''Nor does It say a Justice of the peace shall not," replied Senator Can dler. In prefacing hie advocacy of the bill Senator Hand said: "When I studied the provisions of this bill nnd found It good, I began mmmv*r person for looking about for the proper person for the place, and the galfant figure of the handsome senator from the Twenty- fourth (Senator Miller) came to mind.” On the vote for passage It passed— 22 to I.
