ITS A COMBINE.
Rllen D. Candler Says That
Berner And Atkinson
ARE WORKING TOGETHER.
Three Reports of Atkinson’s
Opening Speech.
The selection of an early pri
mary was. according to rumor,
quite a disappointment to some
of the candidates for guberna
torial honors.
It is claimed that the selection
of an early date for holding the
primary is entirely too early as
the candidates will not have
sufficient time to go before the
people.
Behind this dech ra ion lies a
story.
In the executive committee
meeting several days ago a hard
fight was made for a late pri
mary by the forces opposed to
Col. Candler.
Col. Candler, in speaking of
the time to hold the primary,
said : “It matters not to me if
the primary is held in April or
September; I am sure of elec
tion.
“The opposition wanted alate
primary, and if you will notice
in the committee meeting when
the Berner-Atkinson party voted,
they voted as one man. They
have reached an understanding
and know each other as well as
I know them.”
“All I want is a fair election.’
On February 19th I sent a letter
to every member of the commit
tee requesting the people to vote
direct for the candidate and not
for delegates to the convention.
“On March 10th, nearly a
month after I sent my letter to
the members of the convention,
I received a letter from Judge
Atkinson asking % me to cooper
ate with him in securing a fair
election.
“I replied to his request with
the assurance that I would do
all in my power to help him se
cure fair play, enclosing a copy
of the letter I had sent the mem
bers of the committee. lam will
ing to do anything I can for a
fair election.”—Atlanta Com

JUDGE A I KINSON
Formally Opens His Campaign
In Hawkinsville.
I
Hawkinsville, March 21.
Judge Spencer R. Atkinson
opened his campaign here Satur
day. He spoke in the court
house, which was filled. His
speech was a repetition of his
formal address, though he wen'
more into details.
' His attitude on the exemption
of manufactories from taxation
met the approval of the town
people, but the country people
listened to his argument in sil
ence.
They paid very close ami re
spectful attention to what he
said, but gave no open demon
station as to their feelings on this
very important question.—At
lanta Commercial.
MACON telegraph’s REPORT.
In the Macon Telegraph's report
of Railroad commissioner Atkin
■on'a opening speech apoears this
paragraph :
At 11 o’clock a brass band Rd
the way, and eight hundred
or a thousand people gathered in
the courthouse to greet the young
candidate. Hon. Sam A. Way,
Hawkinsville's handsome young
Mayor escorted the speaker to the
ths stand and introduced him t<
the eudience in a ioliciloua man
ner.”
(The Hustler Commercial can
prove by any man in Hawkins
ville that the court room wont
accommodate the half that
number of people.)
constitution’s report
In the Constitutions report of
this same speech is fouud the fol
lowing statements:
“ Throughout this portion of his
speech it was very noticeable that
while be criticised both the
«> ppos in g candidates for
what he alleged to be their insin
cerity in the matter of tax reform
he took occasion to pay a hign
personal compliment, whenever
the opportunity offered, to Sena
tor Berner, while he naver failed
to refer to Colonel Cand:er as my
“my venerable old friend from
Hall.” He repeated this expres
sion at least half a dozen times.”
(And yet, while the rugged o'd
Allen D. Candler is only 61 years
of age, the Atlanta Journal has
published a barefooted war record
of the brave stump speaker who
challenges for joint debates but
who fears to resign his fat job on
the railroad commission )
At the close of the railroad
commissioners talk, says the Con
stitution, “A score or more of
people came forward toehake his
hand, and be was liberally and
honestly congratulated upon the
success of his address. Among
those who congratulated him
was an elderly and influential
business man oi Hawkinsville.,
who said that the speech was one
of the best he had heard for a
long time.
“But, judge,” he added, “I am
going to wait until I hear from
your venerable old friend from
Hall before j make up my mind
how to vote,’
gee! BUT AIN’T THEY HOT?
All because Frank Wright has
put the prices of drugs down.
To lower the prices of this
line in Rome is like punching a
hornets nest, but you stick to
me with your cash trade and I’l
keep punching and the prices
sha.l stay down,
