The Fourth District Election.

Coming at time when the vital concern of
every true Georgian, as of every true American
is the effective prosecution of the war the special
election to be held in the Fourth Congressional
District January the sixteenth to name sue
cessor to Hon. W. C. Adamson is a matter of COM
polling interest to the entire State The Demo-
cratic candidate. Hon. William c. Wright, of New
nan, stands squarely for support Of the Govern
ment and of the President, the nations com
mander in chief. That is the only position which
any citizen who prizes his country's wellbeing can
afford to take or to approve in others. For men
who understand what is at stake for the American
people in this war there be middle ground
between loyalty and disloyalty We must defeat
Prussianism overwhelmingly, or stand in peril of
its brutality for years and generations to come
There is but one way whereby can defeat
it, and that lies in supporting the Government in
every essential war measure Not to support the
Government, which is the only effective instru-
ment through which the power and patriotism of
all the people express themselves, would be
equivalent at this crucial juncture to a soldiers de-
sorting his colors in the midst of battle Prudent
citizens will take chances in the attitude of the
men they choose to represent them at Washington
in this momentous hour. They will be assured be-
yond peradventure that he who seeks their suf-
frage will prove faithful to their patriotic ideals
Mr.. Wright measures fully up to this require
ment. As the Democratic nominee, he is entitled
10 the support of every Democrat in the District;
and able, dependable, unquestionaby loyal
man he merits the support of every true American
voter in the District, regardless OF party lines
That he will be elected Overwhelmingly if the
Democrats do their duty. there can be no doubt
But where vital issue is to be determined
there should be no negligence on any good citi-
zen's part
