In Oeorgla at the meeting this week,

'The case was set for a hearing, and
the commission was ready to give It
the fullest latitude. Yet, Mr. Roberts
has twice requested a postponement,

a good reason; but 1 have since team

tllL
Colonel Kstlll began hla speech by
asking that the men In the audience
take off tlielr coats, If they desired, for
he Intended to take his off.
Colonel Kstlll told of the time Just
after the war when everybody wae put
to the task of providing, In a very dif
ficult manner for their families. He
said that he started to work In the of
fice, that he now owns, at 61 per day,
and that he was glad to get the Job.
Colonel Kstlll devoted some of hla
time to denouncing some of the re
marks made by Hoke Smith about him.
He said that there had been many mis
representations.
"1 say that there are but two parties
In this state," said Colonel Kstlll, “and
ona Is the good old Democratic party
and the other la the Republican. You
have to be In one or the other, and I
am a true Democrat."

The speaker declared that the dis
franchisement Idea was a bail one, for.
ha said, the negroes were already dls
frnnffiileed, with the white primary. He
said that the educational clause In ths
disfranchisement was against ths white
man and It would disfranchise many
of them. Hr declared that there were
11,060 white people In the state that
were uneducated, and they would lie
disfranchised. He said that of this

000 more white people In Oeorgla thau
negroes and that the white people
through the white primary could regu
late the affairs.
Colonel Kstlll stattd that he was for
corporations, for they were doing what
no one man could do. He said that he
believed they ought to be regulated,
but the legislature could do this, and It
was up to the people to send the light
kind of men to the legislature.
He eald that the charge about his
owning swamp land and draining It
with convict labor was untrue, that he
had never owned an ncre of swamp
Innd In hla Ilfs and for that reason he
could not have used convict labor for
draining It.
Mr. Morgan followsd Mr. EstUI and
he delivered • very bright speech. He
devoted much of hla time along the dis
