In Dorsey’s race, he sees a chance to get
on the band wagon, and regain lost ground.
Everybody sees that the Hardwick-Pottle-
Harris plan is, to divide the vote, and throw
the struggle into another Alacon Convention.
To such a convention, Hardwick men will
go, disguised as Dorsey supporters.
Those men will knife Dorsey, as they knifed
Hutchens, and will take orders from Hard
wick.
Beware of traitors, Hugh !
The sort of man Jim’s brother is, will
be seen in the following letter, written to the
man who was used by John Grant and John
Slaton to vilify the State and myself in the
Frank Case:
Ga., Sept. 13, 1915.
Dear Sir: I thank you from the bottom of my
heart for article appearing in Sundays and to
day’s issue of The Chronicle. Your courage is
SUBLIME. All honest Georgians should honor
you for the work you are doing to combat and
counteract the forces of evil set in motion by
THAT ARCH-FIEND, TOM WATSON.
I rejoice and thank God that we have one
Georgian brave and brainy enough to present th®
side of truth, and who can so ably present THE
FACTS THAT WILL CLEAR THE NAME OF
JOHN M. SLATON, AS TRUE AND HONEST A
MAN AS EVER LIVED, from that charge of cor
ruption in his official act as Governor. You
should be supported by every honest Georgian.
I am with you ’till the end. Your editorial is
convincing. It has been read and favorably re
ceived here.
With best wishes, Yours truly,
JOHN A. BOYKIN.
The Constitution announces that Edward
A. Stephens, who was Dorsey’s assistant, has
resigned in order that he may devote himself
entirely to John A. Boykin, who is running
for Dorsey’s former office.
