Bccjidm' Hoke Smith Does Not Fall

Has been Wants to Defeat Him
for Governor and Urges Governor
Brown to Oppose Him.
To disregard the nomination of
Hoke Smith for Governor of Georgia,
on the ground that Democrats are
not bound by the primary, which
choso him, because of the methods
by which the primary was conducted,
was the advice of Thomas E. Wat
son, once Populist candidate for the
Presidency, in a speech at a mass
meeting, called by himself at Atlan
ta * Wednesday night. He urged
Democrats to vole for Governor Jos
eph M. Brown, for another term,
although Brown is not a nominee,
dedaring that voters are free to
treat the Smith nomination as null
and void.
What Watson called "Ivossism”
and the’alleged use of “money and
whiskey In elections, and the secur
ing of nominations by fraud and de
ceptions" were the reasons he ga\«
for insurglng against the regular
Deoaocratic nominee. Watson re
ferred to Smith's statement of $17.-
000 campaign expenses, declaring
that this did not cover more than
half of the total expenses from other
sources
He objected to the use of so much
money in campaigns as a dangerous
tendency. He claimed that in the
nominating committee the represtn-'
tat Ives of the 93.000 Democrats, who
voted in the primaries for Bronn,
were “reduced to silence" by the
Convention rule*, and that then the
representatives of the 97.000, who
voted for Smith, were subdued bv
those new rules into a state of
speechless Imt-ecllltv “
The uproar, which cut short his
previous speech here Watson char?
ed. was Instigated bv what ho rill
ed the “rule or ruin clique, whlih
dominated the nominating Conven
tion
Speaking further of this int.'rup-
tton. Watson said.
“Although no such idea was m mv
mind at the time, I have been frm-
ly convinced that some of the Hot-
era had assassination in mind
“The situation in Georgia ears a
striking resemblance to that whPh
•listed in Tennessee Just befoi® Car

Watson charged that vote i'.utPi

would tie the South s first a'e.i “ o

Near the close of his speech Mr.
Wstson said. 1 am authorUed to
•ay that If the people call on Go.e'ii-
or Brown he will serve. Tod:-y I
had a confidential talk with J. K
Smith (Governor Brown's campaign
manager.) and Mr. Smith will help
In ‘our fight “
Asked after the speech whether
Governor Brown had authorized him
to make any statement, Mr. Watson
said the Governor had not, but that
he was confident the Governor would
accept if reelected.
Mr. Watson did not propose anv
plan to place Governor Brown * name
on the official ballot.
Mr. Batson spoke in a local thea
tre. which was largely filled through
admission by card before the doors
were thrown open to the general
publle.
Conflict Than Southern Soldiers,
Says Commander Samuel K. Van
Sant to Union Veterans.
With a fine tribute to the soldiers
of the Confederacy, Commander-in-
Chief Samuel R. Van Sant, of Minne
sota Thursday formally opened the
business session of the national en
campment of the Grand Army of the
Republic at Atlantic City, N. J. The
commander spoke earnestly as he
expressed his gratification at the In
creasing fraternization of the “blu« ’
and “gray.”
When he said that no braver
troops were ever marshalled for con
flict than the Southern soldiers, and
that the Union veterans now real
ize that no men ever made greater
sacrifices for what they believed to
he right than their former foes, the
commiander was applauded.
The Commander-in-Chief express
ed himself as particularly gratified
at the increasing fraternization of
the “Blue and the Gray.” He voiced
his pleasure at the cordial reception
given him during his recent official
visit to the Southern depaUmen 1 s.
not only from the former Union sol
diers, but from ex-Confederates
“In all cities, when possible," ne
said, T urged joint meetings of the
Blue and the Gray. We had iniuy
gatherings of this character, and no
more loyal and patriotic sentiments
were ever uttered than by the men
who fought on the other side
"Are you not pleased to learn that
our comrades are living in peace and
harmony with our late enemies? This
is as it should he. Both armies
were composed of brave in°n. and
they should and do mutually leic-t
each other. We Of the Norm or.n
testify that no braver troops v. aje
ever marshalled for conflict than our
late enemies and we now reiNze
that no men ever made treater sac
rifices for what they believe 1 to tie

PECULIAR ACCIDENT.

Eric Boewell, a five-year-old girl

The great feat of crossing the
snow-capped Alpine barrier between
Switzerland and Italy in a heavier
than air machine was accomplished
Friday by George Chavese, the young
Peruvian aviator.
The plucky hero of the exploit,
however, lies in a local hospital bad
ly injured as the result of an'acci
dent that occurred Just as he had
completed the most arduous and
nerve-raking portion of a task he
had set out to accomplish -a flight
from Brig, Switzerland, across the
Alps to Milan in Italy, in all a dis
tance of atanit 7 5 miles
Both his legs are broken, his left
thigh is fractured and his body is
badly contused; but the physicians
in attendance are of the opinion that
these hurts will not prove fatal and
that unless unlocked for complica
tions ensue Chavese will i>e about
in two months.
The accident occurred as Chav
ese was endeavoring to make a land
ing at Poinodoesiila, Italy. The
Ali>e had been crossed successfully
and the aviator was descending with
the power of his machine cut off
When i •out thirty feet above the
ground a sudden gust of wind seem
ed to catch the monoplane,' which
turned over and fell When crowds
that had been watching the descent
ran up fllev touild Chave-e Iving

Fifty miles awa.' lav Milan, the
goal for which he was seeking in
order to wm the pri/e of Sjo.iomi

cietv t'liavese lost the race
Tbe weather at Brig was clear and
bright when Chavese mad-- lus start

running at full speed he rose in

the Simplon Kulm where at an al
titude estimated at T.-'oo toot, be
turned his machine sou'h over the
terrifying Simplon pass with the
Kaltwasscr glacier at his left and the
frozen peak of the ILubschhorn at his
right.
After crossing 'he divide. Chavese
timed to the towering white moun-
ain head of Monte Leone, which
rises io a height of itl.till fee', and
lassed down aoove the tionde gorge.
in'T he rca< lied 'he open vallev of
Yodro. and then descended eaaitv tn-
word I tomodossola which is ss;< feet
above sea level It was here that the
accident occurred
Sonic of the spectators of the
flight say that Fbavese, after cross
ing the .Simplon pass, followed the
short cut route over the Monsecra
pass, which is yuou feet above sea
level. If thl* be so. it is possible
that the Peruvian beat his own
world's record for height of s,^7l
The _’."• miles between Brig and
Domodossola. which it took the ar
mies of Na|>oleon a fortnight to ne
gotiate. Chaves*- accomplished by
the route of the eagle in axartly
forIv minutes
From the high point at Monseera
he descended 7,nun feet in 13 min
utes. his machine gaining in momen
tum as it flew, over the jumble of
lower peaks, gulches and hills beyond
until the speed was terrific as it a|>-
proaohed the aerodrome at Domo-
‘dossla.
This doubtless caused the acci
dent which turned th** cheers of ad
miration of the waiting crowd into
cries of horror when the machine
'came hurling to the ground just as
it seemed tii^it Chavese was aUnn to
alight in safety.
After treatment in the hospital
Chavese regained consciousness but
was unable to explain how the acci
dent had occurred The generally-
accepted opinion is that The accident
was due to a slight shift in the rud
der while the monoplane was being
sent at a high rate of speed.
Although Chavese did not succeed
in winning the prize of $20,000, hav
ing jfailed to reach Milan, some of
the members of the aviation commit
tee are in favor of turning over the
prize to him and erecting a monu
ment in commemoration of man's
first flight across the Alps
(Chavese, .although a Peruvian^
was born tnrParis in 1S8 7. He se
cured his licehse from the Aero club
as air pilot in February 19 of ibis
year.
Chavese was able to receive visi
tors at the hospital for a few min

was in a most qkeerful mood.
