election to the United States senate by
the largest majority given any candi-
date in many years.
1.-THE issue in this campaign is clear
ly drawn-for or against our govern
ment. There is no doubt in my mind
of the loyalty of the people of Georgia,
and it is a source of great pride to me
that they are solidly behind my candi-
dacy. In return for their support. I
pledge myself to make every effort pos
sible for the success of our cause.
81 shall spend Wednesday in Macon
and go from there to Washington. I
shall return to Georgia in March, and
announce my campaign committee and
managers.
Harris clubs have already been or
ganized in a number of counties. Dur
ing this week many others will be
formed. 1t is the purpose of my
friends to organize in every county and
militia district in the state and to wage
a campaign that will arouse Georgia.
A number of prominent speakers have
volunteered their services and very
soon there will be patriotic rallies in
every community in this state.
1.-THE eyes of the nation will be upon
Georgia this summer; indeed, it may
be said in all truth that Germany will
take an interest in the hope that our
government may be Inundated by the
people at the polls 1t is scarcely nee
essary for me to repeat my faith that
kaiserism will be rebuked, and the COM
mander in chief of the American army
and navy. our great president. will be
upheld by the people of our state"
