blood. You are going to be called on
soon to make another donation-one
that should take considerable thought,
one that you cannot recall when
made, and l ask you as friend to
be careful in making this donation
for fear you should make a great
mistake. You are soon to cast your
vote for United States senator. We
any thing else but represent the
wishes of his great people. l am
| thankful to say that l never voted
| for him. We have been shown clear
ly that he is not the man we wish to
| represent US again, or to promise to-
! We must be sure to find one who is
capable and who will help our presi-
dent In every way to shape our des-
tiny and to carry US to victory. We

have no criticism to make of them
for fear | may do them an injustice,
so | shall say naught against either
of them. | do know that we have
tried one of the candidates in con-
gress for several years and no one,
not even his opponents, can show one
wrong that he has done while there,
but he has at all times tried hard to
help our president in every way, and
| am in position to know that his eff
forts have been appreciated by the
president. He is man of great abil-
ity and has proven it while in pub
lie life and congress. He is ever
ready to help a friend, and one who
knows how to help when called on.
This he has proven also very clearly
to those who are in position to see.
He has both ability and energy Il
say energy, for man without ener-
gy is of little use to himself or his
people), a man who stands high with
his home people; one who has never
been turned down by his home peo-
pie, never having been defeated for
any office to which he has aspired.
Can you ask for better affidavit
than that? His home people are in
position to know him. He has rep
resented the strongest congressional
district in Georgia for the past six
years or more. Two years ago he de-
feated a man said to have consider
able ability and from the great city Of
Atlanta by an overwhelming MAORI
do know that a grave mistake was
made when we sent our present jul
Nor senator (Hardwick) to Washing
ton to represent US, for he has done
ty. Why did he defeat him so badly?
Simply because the good people of
his district knew he was a man of
great ability and honesty. They had
tried him for several years. Why
should they make a change when he
has proven to them he is worthy of
their vote? Should you cast your
vote for him in the coming election
for senator from the grand old state
of Georgia | am sure you will never
regret it.
l have lived five years in this
town, Decatur, Ga l know the man
| am talking of and | know what his
home people think of him. I know
there is not a man in his district held
in higher esteem than William Schley
Howard, of DeKalb county, Ga, who
believe and hope will go as your
next junior senator from Georgia by
the help of the majority vote of Ter
rell county.
My dear friends of Terrell county
l lived with you for twenty-One years.
l am more than proud l did, and
assure you l am proud of you, as
have said before. |, as your friend,
ask that you consider this matter
closely before you cast your vote for
senator; do not make a mistake, for
most mistakes are costly. Remem-
Der you are hiring and paying for a
United States senator. They are all
offering to take the job at the same
price, and price you must pay Now
go at it in business way. Which is
the best fitted man to do you the
most good? If you are not in a po-
sition to decide clearly and have not,
and are really Indifferent about it, !
then | ask you as a friend to vote
for my friend William Schley How f!
ard. a man whom you will always
feel proud you voted for, a man who
can be Of great benefit to you if you
need him, one who will go further
to do you a favor Than any public .
man | ever knew, one who can defeat |
Judas Iscariot (Tom Hardwick), one |
who is going to defeat him, and I
trust Terrell county by your vote
will place a big majority in William
Schley Howard's column If so, l as
sure you that both he and l will
greatly appreciate the same. Most re-
spectfully your friend,
