"A presidential elector is free to cast his

Malicious and intentionally misleading
statements are being scattered broadcast over
Georgia that votes cast for Hughes and Fair
banks on the ticket with Hastings and Clarke
as electors at large will not be counted, and
that the votes will be wasted. This statement
IS false and the parties making it know that
it is false
The names Of Hughes and Fairbanks cleo
tors, headed by Hastings and Clarke, were
legally filed with the Governor and Secretary
OF State, and we hold receipts therefor. The
electors appear on the tally sheets already
printed, and sent out to the orCinaries and
election officials In every precinct in Georgia.
SO long as the names Of the electors appear
on the ballot as given below the votes will be
counted, and we have offered reward of
81 900, divided into ten parts of $4,000 each
for the first ten cases reported where evidence
IS submitted that will result in the conviction
OF persons attempting to lntlmldate or inter-.
fere with voters election day, or wilful
failure of election managers to do their sworn
duty and count each individual vote for the
fourteen electors appearing on the ballots.
Our electors are:

BROWN DROWNED

thing was wrong and a moment later
the machine dropped into the river.
