By His Homefold That Was
Royal In Every Way.

ed by Hon. W. D. Tutt, of Lin
coln county, arrived in Gainsvilie
yesterday morning on :he 10.40,
o’clock train from Atlanta, tr m
Savannah, where he spoke Mon
day.
Ab he allighted from the care
he was met by a committee com
posed of Hou. Charles S, Webb,
chairman of Ha’l county democra
tic excutive committee, Judge J.
B. Estes, who is the lifelong friend
of Colonel Candler, and who has
taken an active part in the cam
paign all aloi.g, Hon. Thomas M.
Bell, one of tne prominent demo
crats of Hall, and whj has taken
a most active part in the campaign
and Hvn. H. W. J, Ham wno has
always been a loyal democrat and
supporter ot Colonel Candler. He
was escorted to a carriage and
driven to the courthou’e. The
hand played jolly air and the peo
ple cheered loud applause the vet
eran leader of the democratic Hag
in Georgia.
In spite of the very inclement
weather and the continued threat
ened rain, there was a large crowd
of people in from the country. The
city population turned out to the
rally meeting in large numbers
and shortly after 11 o'clock the
spacious courthouse room was'
well filled with interested voters
and quite a number of ladies
among the audience.
Seated on a platform erected
especially for the purpose were:
Hon. Allen D. Candler, Mr. C. S.
Webb, Judge J. B. Estes Hon. H.
W. J. Ham and Colonel W. D.
Tutt.
“The meeting will now come to
order Judge Estes will introduce
the next governor of Georgia,’"
were the words of Chairman
Webb
The judge arose and in a neat
little speech, which was well re
ceived , introduced Colonel Candler
The entire audience cheered widely
and Cononel Candler arose.
He made a good speech, about
the same in substance as he has
delivered all over Georgia since
the campaign opened. He told of
the way in which he received the
nomination, being the candidate
of the plain people, and reiterated
statements made in all the pub
lished speeches he has made.
He was very plain and pointed
in his remarks and talked in friend
ly tones to his home people, who
gladly heard him and who will turn
out in full force tomorrow to do
him honor with a large vote at the
polls. He did not speak very long
—nnly about an hour.
Following him Colonel 11. W.
J. Ham’made 8 fine little speech,
brimming over with humor, intro
ductory to Colonel W. 1), Tutt, of
Lincoln, Candidate Hogan’s home
county, who made a brief talk, in
which he referred to Mr. Hogan’s
race. He said there were plenty of
men in Lincoln just as well qual
ified for governor as Mr. Hogan
He bad nothing evil to say of Mr.
Hogan. He was a personal friend,
but he was only in the race as a
tool and for what he thought he
saw in the future. He begged all to
vote for Candler and not to allow
apathy to keep them from the
polls, but to roll up as big major
ity as possible and honor Colonel
Candler as much as possible.
After the speaking was over,
about 2 o'clock all enjoyed a plen
tiful spread dinner in the lower
of the courthouse. The rain
prevented a special din
ner on the lawn, but all joined in
with keen appetites and had a fine
time nevertheless,
Truly yesterday was a great day
