A n-o'-warsman on a visit to his
native city gave an amusing instance
of the readiness and resource of naval
seamen. He had made an arrange
ment at New York to meet a chum
from his own ship, but he had forgot
ten the number of the house, and he
did not care to knock at every door
until he came to the right one.
A rag and bone man with a bugie
passed along. Jack seized the bugie
I'm looking for chum," he ex-
planned.
Then he blew the grog call of the
navy. As the last note died away a
window was hastily flung up and a
sailors head was thrust out.
''Ah," said Jack, as he handed back
the bugle, 81 knew I'd find him"

CD AS Judge and Solicitor he
strictly enforced the prohibition law,
he has always voted the prohibition
ticket. We doubt if any Judge in
Georgia has more strenuously insisted
on the enforcement of the prohibition
laws and the law against carrying
deadly weapons. In all his charges
to the Grand Juries he has uniformly
waged incessant war against blind
tigers and the Incorporate and eX-
cessive use of intoxicating WHISTLES.
In these charges he always strongly
set forth the evils of intemperance
and urged the young men of the
country to let whiskey alone and to
lead lives of sobriety. His charges
upon the subject of the enforcement
of the prihibition law and the law
against carrying deadly weapons and
his utterances against the evils OF
intemperance struck such q respon-
sive chord that in three different
counties of his circuit public resolu-
lions were passed by the bar and the
people asking that his charges be
spread upon the minutes of the court,
and in one county that they be pub
lished at the expense of the county
and distributed among the people,
an honor which has never heretofore
been accorded any other Judge of
the Western Circuit so far as we
know.
CO. His people are all farming
people. His strength as a public man
has been with the farming element
and the masses of the people. They
have always voted for and trusted
him, knowing that he was their
friend.

farmer and merchant in the little
town of Loganville.

A Native Son.

Judge Brand is a native of Walton
County, having been born and reared
in Buncomb district, which has fur
nished many prominent and infiuen-
tial citizens to the State. He is
known to nearly every man, woman
and child in the county, and he en-
joys a strong hold upon the friend
ship and affections of the people, who
have marked with pride and interest
his rapid strides to success and
prominence and have admired him
both for his great ability and eff
cheney as a jurist, as we'll as for his
many splendid qualities as man.
That Judge Brand is going to
make a strong race there can be no
doubt, and large number have al
ready picked him as the winner He
seems certain to carry the three
counties which are located in his
judicial circuit, Walton, Clarke and
Oconee, and his friends confidently
believe he will carry several others
besides.-Walton Tribune.

SiOnal District:


sional District:
The friends and neighbors Of
Judge Charles H. Brand desire to
place before the voters some facts in
regard to his past life and public
service for their consideration be-
fore making up their minds for whom
to vote in this race.
You will pardon us for telling you
of his fitness for this position and
for asking you to vote for him.
(1D Notwithstanding the charges
which have been recently made
against him, Judge Brand has been
a member of the Presbyterian church
for over thirty years, and in an
humble way is trying to serve his
God and his country. His only living
brother is member of the Methodist
church at Lawrenceville. His first
wife was a Methodist. and his last
a Presbyterian. His children arc
members of the Presbyterian church
in this city. His people on both
sides,-his fathers and his mothers
were Primitive Baptists. His
father, though a member of no
church, was at heart Baptist.
CO. Judge Brand graduated at
the University of Georgia in 1881.
He was admitted to the bar in 1882.
He was elected to the State Senate in
1894 and S, and served as Vice-Presi-
dent of that body. He had a large
law practice and by living a simple
and frugal life accumulated some
property.
CD His record as Solicitor Gen
eral of the Western Circuit for eight
years was the admiration of the peo-
pie His treatment of lawyears and
defendants in all cases was fair and
courteous. No Circuit ever had
better Judge and Solicitor. AS evil
dence of his ability as Judge we re-
fer to his record in the Supreme
Court, which is not surpassed by any
presiding Judge in Georgia.
(4) In addition to this, he is
successful business man. He has
been President of the Brand Bank
ing Company at Lawrenceville, and is

H. Brand for Congress Qong term)
to succeed the lamented Samuel j.
Tribble. Judge Brands decision to
offer his services to the people of
the Eighth District was hailed with
satisfaction by his Oconee friends,
and there is no gainsaying the pre-
diction that he will receive this coun-
tvs vote by a large majority over the
entire field of excellent gentlemen
opposing him.
This is as it should be. There IS
no man before the public today who
holds warmer place in the atfec-
lions of QUE people than the genial
Judge; there is no man in the Eighth
Congressional District better qualified
to acceptably represent the people at
