Okolona, Miss, May "a, 1918.
To the Voters of Okolona:
AS am one of the Candidates
for Mayor of Okolona to be voted
for Thursday, May Goth, | think
it nothing but fair that | should
let you know something of my
ideas of government policies.
The only definite promise have
or will make is that | shall do
the best | know how under all
circumstances. | believe in up
building and not tearing down.
Okolona is a town of great posi-
bilities, just as great as any
town | know of, and we should
encourage any new enterprise
that By intelligent and energetic
effort could be brought here.
The Business Mems Club has
done a great work in the last
year or two according to my OBJ
servation, and | think that every
city official ought to be actively
identified with this organization.
AS an adjunct to the administra-
ton it should put forth every
effort to build up the town and
country. We of the town should
show our farmer brothers that
we are genuinely interested in
all of their affairs. Why should
we not? Our interests are iden-
teal. we should make them
feel that this is their town, and
it is. We should make them
feel that our interests are so in
tertwined and interviewer that
they Will not only take a pride
in our" town but love it akin
to its citizens. ~a,~,
In regard Etol, economics, |
think l know the value of a dol
lar, and believe in a town 'get-
ting its moneys worth as we'll as
an individual, but | am not a
'Tight-wad" and believe in do
ing things when its pays to do
them.
Now fellow voters if you can
give me your support on election
day | shall always remember you
kindly and appreciatively.
Very truly,
r. L. FITZGERALD.
