Hardman Leads Field
In Governor's Race.
Atlanta, Aug. 2.—With sentiment in
tile governor’s race rapidly crystallizing
recently, it is apparent that IV. L. G.
Hardman is leading the held, The first
to announce, he began early and has wag¬
ed an aggressive campaign, carrying it
directly to the people. He has visited
practically every county in the state,
which is greatly to his advantage, as lie
makes a tine impression andgains strength
wherever he goes.
IV. Hardman’s style of campaigning
appeals to the people because of t he high
plane upon which lie liases it. Making
no references to the other candidates, he
simply presents his own cause, dwelling
on his legislative record and the princi¬
ples and measures he advocates, includ¬
ing law enforcement, increased education
al opportunities, development of farming
interests, complete separation of church
and state, biennial sessions of the legis¬
lature, a strict business administration
of state affairs, and many other matters
of vital concern.
Of lofty character and large nffaiis,
Dr Hardman is distinguished bv eminent
success in all his own professional, husi -
ness, and agricultural,undertakings, and
a career of brilliant public service, hav¬
ing been the author of much legislation
promoting agricultural interests and the
general welfare. A business man and
Christian statesman, his motto is: “First
the people th mselves, then their affairs,
both safely guarded.”
Beginning this race, with the practically
solid hacking of those who supported him
two years ago, when he carried sixty
counties and barely missed a number of
others, Dr. Hardman had a running start
and late reports from various sections
now indicate that he will carry the state
by a sweep.

“As the wind plays with the spark
Of tire through the night,
As the speed of the soaring lark,
That wings to the sky his flight,
So swiftly thy soul has sped
On its upward wonderful way.
Like the lark when tbeNiawn is red,
In search of the shining day.
