Coming back to the main issue, The
Advocate still holds that Mr.. Gaines Is
not friendly disposed towards the Ne
gro and it presents as evidence his
record.
We accuse him of being a lilly white
because of his ignoring Coleman
who aspred to postmastersnip.
We accuse him of being a lily-white
because after he had been twice re-
Quested to support the Negro EXPOSE
ton bill and had promised to do SO
after delay of four weeks. his name
does not appear among those who
voted for it,
We accuse him of being 4 lily-white
because he has never exhibited Il de-
sire to secure for the race even those
little janitorships which every other
West Virginia Congressman has got.
ten for his black constituents.
Whether or not the Advocate voices
tie opinion Of the well informed
Negro voters of this district will be
decided Saturday. Till then we leave
the matter with our readers, hoping
that they will vote as their consciences
direct.

against the combined efforts of the
southern representatives in that
body in their efforts to revive the

ended to all citizens, as provided by
the fourteenth amendment to the
Federal Constitution, and prevented
the injection of that detestable ques-
ton Of again depriving the right OF
the black race from participating in
popular elections by the people.
Congressman Hardwick, One Of
the unreconstructed fire eaters and
Negro haters of the South, has for
six years endeavored to secure the
consideration Of resolution in con
gress for the repeal or the four
tenth amendment to the Federal
Constitution. AT each session Of
Congress this proposition has been
presented by the southern represen-
tatiye, backed by the, solid support

FOR STATE TREASURER.

To the People of Georgia:
I hereby announce my candidacy
for the office of State Treasurer, sub
ject to the democratic white primary
Of 1910, to be held on a date to be
selected by the state democratic ex-
ecutiye committee.
In making this announcement ]
feel that it is appropriate for me to
say that my services for seven years
in both branches of the legislature
during which time many of the pres
ent laws relating to banks and bank
ing were enacted, and my service at
the same time on the house commit
tee on banks and banking, by which
these laws were considered, has Civ
en- me a clear insight into the Geor-
gia laws concerning banking and fin
ance.
In addition to the foregoing exper-
fence, I have been, for fifteen years,
president of the Elberton Loan &
Savings Bank, in which capacity 1
may say have gained wide practical
experience, concerning the operation
Of these laws; and, as a result of
which 1 am in position to recommend
certain improvements in the present
laws which will better safeguard the
interests of the depositors in Geor-
gia's state banks.
If elected to this important posi-
ton, l shall give my every effort to
the faithful discharge of its duties,
to assist me in which l shall secure
the services Of trained, expert and
capable assistants.
I respectfully request the favor
able consideration of the democratic
voters of the state:
