He insists upon the Western and Atlantic Rail road being disposed of at the expira tien of i{ts present lease upon the most advantageous terms possible to the State, and to that end he warng the people against electing a railroad attorney to the Governorship. The latter suggestion was accepted as being an attack upon the candl dacles of Judge “Nat” Harrls, of Ma con, who is an attorney for the Southern road, and J. Randolph An derson, of Savannah, who is an at torney for the Seaboard Alr Line. Mr. Harris also demands cheaper text-books for use In the public gchools of the State, with an eye ‘eventually to free books. He stated ‘that this will be hastened if the State road is properly disposed of. ~ The Director of the Census stated that he is a candidate before the peo ‘ple upon a business man’s platform. ' Ho said that his would be a “business man’s administration strictly,” if the people should see fit to elect him Governor, and he seemed entirely confident that they would. ~ Mr, Harris’ speech was listened to attentively, and he was cheered and |applauded freely.
