WATSON GAVE PLEDGE
ON DISFRANCHISEMENT;
I; SAYS HE WILL KEEP IT
Opposes the Indepen-
I dent Action of Pop
ulists in Georgia.
CALLOWAY 18 HONEST
BUT HAS MADE MISTAKE
Iptelsl fb The Georgian.
Thotnp*pn, r Cia., June 20.—Tour cor.
rtepondeni, having read the call of
Chairman Holloway for the Popullat
convention, thle morning called
Hon. Thomas K. Watson and asked
him flatly two questions:
1. What do you think of It?
2. What are you and your friends
going to do about It? '
Mr. Watson, without hesitation,
said:
"After consultation with Holloway,
Hines, Sibley, McGregor and other
Populist leaders, I pledged the sup.
port of myself and party to the dls.
frarichleement Issue ' on the night of
September 1,, 1904,.In a great public
meeting In the State capitol In Atlan
ta. Hop., John .Temple Graves was
present, and knew how that pledge was
Indorsed. Not a dissenting voice did
I ever hear until McGregor made his
break, late In 1901.
"I made the pledge In good faith, and
. will keep.lt. I wilt expect all.Populists
mho then Indorsed me to stand by me.
"Hoke,Smith's platform comes up to
conditions of my pledge, and Hoke
Smith will have my support. In accord-
ence with my pledge. I will.appeal to
all true Populists to sustain me In this.
"Chairman Holloway'la a good, hon
est man. but has made a mistake. His
action will not change my course at
all. The convention he baa called will
not reprfaent the Populists nor bind
them, for the reason ihnt there ie no
existing county organisation in a ma
jority of the counties of thi ststo, and
hones no legal way to eoloct delegates.
"The moat active workers for the
conventlhn Vere: -John .FuHwood, who
Is a Republican and holds an ofileo un
der Roosevelt ns postmaster of Cedar-
town, and yanroy Carter, lonbr a Re
publican' deputy marxhnl under A. E.
Buck, thnn n Populist, who wns de
nounced by me.In The People’s Party
Paper for” fils ahnmcful vote against
the nntt-Rarroom bill after ho had
been elected.to tho state senute vn that
Issue with my active help; anil who
formally. re-entered tho Democratic
p^rty mn for Jtlie. legislature In. Hart
county m a Democrat and was beaten.
He (ltd not support me In l904, nor did
Fullnood. Yet these art tlie men now
steering'the Pupullst campaign!
i.,‘ll shall recognize that these men
are' agents of the llowell-McWhorter
railroad ring, tind that their object In
putting out a ticket Is to pull off votes
from Mote Smith.
"With all the power that Is In me, I
wilt denounce this foul scheme, nnd I
wUI rfpudlate the right of such a con-
iwntlhn as they have called to bind
the Populists of Georgia.
“I will probably make one speech,
aoniei night In July. In Atlanta. Thla
wilt depend, of course, upon the wishes
'*(' a hose preference In the mut
ter must he considered.
i'P", help me IP,(I I will religion--
ly adhere to the express and Implied
Obligations that rest.upon ine In the
campaign, regardless of consequences
to myself."" . .
Mr. W&tenn spoke with great earn-
•ttnesa and'with air evidence of much
feeling In the matter. Ife Is much Im
proved In health and'Is undoubtedly In

public speech.
MAY A PASTOR

This question w as raised at the At

when it looked aa If there would be a
jjjely discussion on the subject, Mr. E.
"■ Martin moved that action on the

Most of the morning session of the

Jen of the duties of the local preachers,
rhe matter of renewing tlmlr licensee

passed. When the name of Wesley

SMITH-HO WELL DEB A TE A TROME
MAY BE “BUSTED UP” BY SPLIT
BETWEEN LOCAL COMMITTEES
SMITH AND M’WHORTER
PASS ACRID REMARKS
Judge Hamilton McWhorter has add
ed to the gaiety of the gubernatorial
race by a caloric open letter to Tho
Athena Banner, In which he raaps Hnn.
Hoke Smith vigorously This letter Is
reproduced In The Atlanta ConatltuUon
of Wednesday.
With his letter to The Banner, Judge
McWhorter reproduces a copy of a let
ter written him by Hoke Smith under
date of May 28, 1»«4. Judge McWhor
ter's letter, some four rolumna In
length, goes Into the History Incident
to the Smith letter to him. In dol
ing his communication, he says:
"In view of all the facte and rlr-
cumatancea, therefore, I feel In conclu-
alon, constrained to say that so far as I
am concerned, Hoke Smith In hla lust
for office has degenerated from a self-
constructed and cunning antl-ratiroad
'scarecrow' Into a designing and un
blushing campaign slandsrer—design
ing because It Is a part and parcel of
his preconceived scheme to serve hts
own selfish .purpose—and unblushing
because he does not seem to be re
strained by a sufficient trace of sin
cerity or decency to feel a sense of
shame."
Smith to MoWhorter.
Me. Smith's letter to Judge McWhor
ter le aa follows:
Atlanta, Ga.. May 31. 1004.
Hon. Hamp McWhorter, Athena, Ga.
My Dear Judge: I am very anxious
to have a conference with you on i
subject that will be of mutual Intel'
est to us.
When will you be In Atlanta? Will
you not come and see me. or let me
know that you are here, eo tMat I can
call on you as soon aa possibleT
Sincerely yours.
HOKE SMITH.
Mr. 8mith'e Reply.
Concerning the publication In The
Athena Banner and reproduced In The
Constitution Wednesday, morning of the
letter from Hoke Smith to Judge Me
Whorter. Mr. Smith authorised the fol
lowing statement:
"About two year* ago I wrote Judge
McWhorter a letter, suggesting a con'
fsrence. I regarded him ss the cloeett
political friend of Colonel James M.
Smith.
'The state Democratic convention
was shortly to meet and I waa Interest
ed In the election of certain friends as
delegates to the national Democrat!!!
convention. I wlehed to suggest to
Judge McWhorter that Colonel James
M. Smith make the race for presidential
elector and not for delegate. This Is
all there waa In It.
"Judge McWhorter may think that
a proposition even for auch a con
ference with him on my part waa a re
tire! Inn upon me. Perhapa he le right
about It."

LENGTH OF MENS SHIRTS
KANSAS CAMPAIGN ISSUE
By Private Leased Wire.
Topeka, Kane., June 20.—There haa been Injected Into the elate po
litical campaign the queerest Issue of Kansas' many freak lisuee—tha
length of men's shirts. '
Although both the Republican and Damocrattc alate commlttera
frowned upon It, the length of ahlrta waa mada a direct laeue. An
agricultural paper la leading a movement to organise the fannera Into
unlona. The argument haa baen advanced that lf their ahlrts were mmlo
one Inch longer the additional cloth required would consume the entire
aurplua cotton crop.
Ryan and Crummer, chairman, respectively, of the Democratic nnd
Republican commlttaes, suggested today that If this remedy were re
versed to equalise matters In case of a shortage of the cotton crop, the
result might be embarrassing.
"I think the farmers should go alow on this proposition," said Chair
man Ryan.

Will the Joint debate between Hoke
Smith and Clark Howell take plnre
In Rome Saturday?
A red-hot row Is on In the Hill City
between the local Smith nnd Howell
committees as to the arrangements.
A joint meeting of the two commit
tees waa held there Monday and ato-r
some caloric words had been bandied
about a split occurred without an
agreement having been reached.
First, news came that the debate was
to be held at Mobley park, but for
eome cause that proposition blew up.
Then the Smith men got together anil
derided to erect a platform at the foot
of Myrtle Hill cemetery, which lx just
across the Fifth ward bridge from
Broad street, and have their candidate
speak there.
The 8plit Comes.
The Howell committee objected
strenuously because . they contended
that Mr. Howell did not ltnve ns xirong
a voice as Mr. Smith and could not ha
heard to advantage In the open. They
held out for tho opera house.
“Go to," eald the Smith committee.
“Our committee haa the privilege of
making theee arrangements. Our can
didate Issued (he challenge, and Mr.
Howell accepted It. If he wants to
debate with our man ho must accept
our arrangements,"
In Tuesday morning's Rome Tribune,
on the front page and beneath a dou

following appears In big black-face
type, marked advertisement:
