FOR SOLICITOR GENERAL
To the Voters of the Blue Ridge

To the Voters of the Blue Ridge
Circuit:
| hereby announce my candidacy
for the office of Solicitor-General of
the Blue Ridge Circuit, subject to
the Democratic primary to be held
on the 18th day of September, 1916.
Section 1922 of the Civil Code of
Georgia prescribes the following oath
for Solicitors-General of this State:
II do swear that / will faith
fully and impartially, and with
out fear, favor, or affection
discharge my duties as Solicitor
General and will take only my
lawful fees of office. So help
me God"
If elected, | will discharge the du-
ties Of the office as set forth in this
oath.
In the event of my election, Mr..
Gordon b. Gam, of Cobb County,
will be the Assistant SoIicitor-Gener-
al for the entire Circuit
Your vote and influence will be

the matter of local bills. The cardi-
nal plank in my platform, which l
have lived up to absolutely, is that
all local bills shall be submitted to a
vote of the people before they be-
come law | can hardly see how any
fair minded person can oppose this
doctrine, and certainly no one could
successfully attack it. l see in the
county papers that before my tenure
expires, two bills local to the City
of Marietta, in the matter of her
water system, will be introduced.
deem it fair to the supporters of each
measure to say that, in accordance
with my principles, l shall insist
that the referendum clause be en-
bodied in each and, as in all local
matters, let the people themselves,
at the ballot box, say what they
want. l have an abiding faith in
their sincerity, integrity and intel
ligence
In conclusion, with the steadfast
resolution to serve my county in
other ways, as best l can, thanking
you again for the great honor you
have given me, | am,
Most respectfully yours,

In our opinion the best remedy for
this high cost of living is more food
crops and bigger food crops. In addi-
ton to this, we should follow the ex-
ample set by the Germans and learn
to live in a large measure on what we
have been throwing away After this
war we shall have to compete with
them and if we are to do this success
fully, we must study and acquire
economy and efficiency.
