ANNOUNCEMENT MADE &.
BY DR.. |. G. FiARDMAN

class or one section or one faction;
that every endeavor of a righteous ma
ture should have the fair and just adj
ministratiOn that they require.
Il believe that the chief executive
of a great and state of great resOurc-
es should be broad enough and de-
voted enough to the people and to the
vast resources of the state to see so
far as in his power lies; that each and
every interest should be developed to
the highest possible capacity ! be-
lieve then, AS ! do now, that the edu-
cational interests of our state should
be fostered and commended for the
interest of the masses and for the
elimination of illiteracy which is a
burden and a disgrace to our people.
81 commend many of the methods
that are now in operation to eliminate
this evil.
For Educational Development.
81 believe that we need further con-
'sideration of this matter that will give
to us better attendance of our people
to our educational, institutions. l be-
lieYe in the better development of the
mind and body of our people for their
own benefit and for the benefit of the
whole state.
81 favored a revision of the health
laws of our state, thereby promoting
a conservation of human life aud the
prevention of human suffering. | IA
vor that today. And | call attention
to other measures in my platform that
stand for the prevention of the waste
of human life; to relieve the burden of
suffering. | favored proper expendi-
ture and the prompt disbursement of
the funds of the state to maintain it's
credit and reputation.
Il put stress upon agricultural edu-
cation and the conservation of the
material resources of our state; favor
ing the developments of our roads as
one of the most important elements
for the development of the rural as
we'll as the central sections of our
state. ] favored a study of our soils;
it representing the blood and source
from which every endeavor and mate
rial development must come. I favor
ed drainage methods that would re
claim cur land and promote the health
of our country for the upbuilding of
our state, and / favor these measures
today.
81 favor the fair and just treatment
of labor, corporations, railroads and
all lines which are developers of our
great state with regulation that will
be fair and just to the interests of
each and to the whole state.
Conservation of Resources.
81 favor the conservation as far as
it is practical to do so, of our timber
interest, our mineral interests and
our land interests for the people of
our state, so as not to interfere with
the progress and development of the
state. And | favor laws that will pro-
vide for the protection of our women
and chrildren. The source of supply
of our future population; our future
strength in men and principles which
with the proper regulations and re-
gard for each other and our laws is
bound to contribute a greater success
to a greater state.
81 commend the businesS-like meth
DDS of auditing our state departments
as recognized by the last legislature.
/ believe that we have in the state
road commission that was appoint
ed by the last legislature, wise and
business men who are capable of hand
ling and offering a reasonable dispo-
sition of our state road.
81 submit these thoughts for your
with the very highest
regard for those who opposed me in
my former race for GOVERNOR and for
those who may see fit to differ from
me at this time. | have the highest
regard for the valient soldiers who
wore the gray. and who are now to
some expense, for their service and
or the principles that they represent
ed, and that they should be properly
cared for and honored.
81 do not believe that I am doing
any violence to the honored custom
which provided for the second term of
the chief executive of our state, as this
has been frequently violated several
times of recent years, both from the
of the people and the re-
firing chief executive and in further
OF the fact that the chief
basis of the campaign was launched
and fought out on the grounds of one
term. It's my purpose in a more for
NAL notice later to the people of Geor-
gia to give some figures in regard to
the conservation OF our material re-
and construction of our ma
terial resources and building of a
greater state"
