HARDMAN I 8 GAINING
It you are a Hardman supporter in
the race for governor, you uhould3
smile-—-his race for governor is rapid.
Iy becoming a people’'s choice. Folks
are nearing the time when they will
have to decide the question at the
ballot box and as they go they are
beginning to talk dmong themselves,
Up to this hour—and yet a while—
they will remain quiet -~ those who
really have the influence when it
comes time to vote.
The politicians are running all
around the state yelling “eclown” at
the Hardman supporters. They are
getting excited in their assertions
Ithat he hasn't a ghost of a show.§
\Th.elr claims for John Holder are
full of the metallic ring—less life ln‘
them as the days go on, Wheul
Georgia goes to the polls to select a‘
‘governor early in September, the peo-(
ple will not go there forgetful of Dr.
Hardman, He is climbing over the}
others in one of the best, most ef
fective campaigns ever conducted in
this state, |
The politicians are to wake up with
some surprises at his strength. He
fsn't out fighting anybody. He isn't
itrylng to tell the people what they
should do; with. the bond jssues—nor
is he trying to straddle this issue, He
is outspgkes in his views that the
state needs no great bond issue for
imvlng. +He says it needs a heads-up
business management of the funds
now coming in, and he is right., He
is for a business, not a political,
management of the highways. He
can put that through if he is made
governor. But it takes a two-thirds
vote of both houses of the legislature
to pass a highway bond issue and
when that is passed, no matter who is
governor, it becomes a law without
the governor’s signature. John Hold-‘
er's friends boast that he is against
%bonds. It hasn't been a year since
‘he was going over Georgia advocat
‘lng paving bonds. He isn’t sincere.
He is a politician. He is for any
thing to be governor. |
Dr. Hardman is the head of no po
litical machine. He is paying his own
way. He is an outstanding business
success, the president of big colton;
mills, a bank, the owner of two of the
best large farms in Georgia — and
}owns a hydro-electric plant that fur
‘nléhes fower for operating and light
ing everything on that large farm in
the Nacoochee Valley. Everything
he has touched in his business ca
reer ig a model of progressive busi
ness methods. He is a Georgian who
ihas convinced himself that Gerogia
has wonderful undeveloped possibility
on its own farm lands and he is in
close enough touch with our farming
—our successful farming—to be the
farmer's best chance as governor,
From one end of the state to the
other he is being felt as a candidate
of clean method and high principle.
‘He is making his way on campaign
planning unlike anything we have
seen in our day—so straightforward
iund businesslike, He is the man to
’tnkv us out of peanut politics—we say
‘ll again. If Georgians who know him
and understand his ability as a man
who has already given many years to
telling public service, will go to the
polls at the hour of decision and vote
their convictions, they will have done
the best day's work Georgia has had
done in a long time. He will be the
next governor—sure as sunshine-—if
those who know he is worthy of the
trust will stand by him. It ig far
better to vote for the right man than
the winning man. In Dr. Hardman
we have a chance to put principle in.
to our vote instead of peanut politics,
THE LAND OF COTTON
Crisp farmers in many ways gave
the state of Georgia a hard chase in
the production of cotton last year,
but specially did they pile up a five.
acre vield which was not approached
anywhere else in the state. Of their
cotton growing acquirement as a sec
tion the county agent and the farm.
ers of Crisp are proud. ‘They have
reason to be. This year they are
back after their own record, pushing
to beat it.
County Agent J. K. Luck was one
of the farm speakers in Atlanta over
Atlanta Journal radio. The part of
his address in‘ whkich he presents the
farming advantages here is worth pre.
senting. It follows: :
“We realize that we are making
big claims when we say ‘Crisp County
is The Land of Cotton’, but did you
know Crisp county led the state of
Georgia® i@ 1925 on the yield of lint
cotton per acre? According to figures
just released by the Georgia Crop Re.
porting service, Crisp county made an
;nverage of 235 pou’nds of lint per
acre. The-average for the state last
‘year was 153 pounds, Crisp had a
?young share crop farmer who made
eight bales of lint cotton on five
acres in 1925 at a net profit of $143
per acre. She had the first five
‘acre cotton contest for adult farmers
in which 18 of these tarmefn produc
ed 97 bales on 90 acres, ‘
“The winner in this contest was
given a $2OO registered Jersey cow.
This prize was the first of its kind
ever given to a cotton farmer.
“We have over 200 riding and walk
ing cultivators in operation in Crisp
county, we are among the leaders in
having modern equipment on our
farms. This is a step in producing
cheaper cotton.
“Did you know that Crisp county
has only failed once since the boll
weevil came to Georgia to make a
good cotten grop? Crisp county farm.
ers are trying to produce more cot
!?! ,ox,;leu acreage !gy using ferti
lizer wisely and of a high grade, by
using good seed and by the proper
poisoning of the boll weevil,
; “I think I have given you enough
facts to substantiate our claim that
we have ‘The Land of Cotton’ We
will, therefore, tell you what we are
doing this year.
“We are making efforts this year
to surpass our last year's produc
tion.
“We had 200 acres planted in win.
ter legumes last winter for hay and
goil improvement. We have 20 adult
farmers enrolled in the five acre corn
contest. These men are using from
400 to 600 bounds of fertilizer and 200
pounds of nitrate of soda. They are
making a real effort to produce corn,
We have 20 adult farmers in the five
acre cotton contest. All of these
men are using from 600 to 800 pounds
of fertilizer with 200 pounds of ni.
trate of soda as a side dressing.
“We have 75 boys in the one acre
cotton contest, who are using 400 to
600 pounds of fertilizer with 100 to
200 pounds of nitrate of soda as a
side dressing. These boys are try.
ing to produce 75 bales of cotton.
“We have 35 boys in pig club and
40 in calf, peanut, corn and potato
clubs.
“There are 160 Crisp county girls
enrolled in club work. All of the
men, boys and girls are working to
produce more per acre and save what
they produce.
“] have given you something about
Crisp county’s agricultural condition.
She also has great resources. In one
section of Crisp there is a large
limestone deposit that is 95 percent
pure. We have the Flint river run
ning through Crisp on west side with
a large amount of undeveloped wat
er power. Crisp county has taken
the initial steps to construct a hydro
electric plant on Flint river at a cost
of $1,250,000 to supply cheap power
for civic, agricultural and industrial
purposes. At the November election
the people of Georgia will be asked
to vote for the amendment to give
Crisp county permission to continue
her forward steps in this great de
velopment.”
MR. DAVIS JOINS THE FIGHT
Macon Telegraph:
The accession of John W. Davis
by those who favor the abolition of
the two-thirds rule and the unit vote,
will add strength to the movement
that is giving Democrats an oppor
tunity to consider whether they are
ready to bring an end to the disas
trous and hardly less than disgrace
ful cat and dog fights of the
quadernnial national conventions.
Although he was selected as the com
promise candidate because of the ex
istence of the two-thirds rule, Mr.
Davis sees the harm and the wrong
and the danger to the party in it.
The democrats could rot well sur
vive many more conventions such
as the last, It would be infinitely
better to select McAdoo or Smith
and go on down to defeat than to
’qv BB enl Y fati et o indngd
hnu@ another convention such as that
of 1924. |
It is fairly certain that the majori
ty of the party desires to abrogate
the two-thirds rule. It is no doubt
true that the majority desired to do
that in the 1924 convention, but the
convention was stampedede by fear
~—fear of McAdoo on the one hand
and Smith on the other. Wise lead
ers who desire to bring about the
abolition of the rule will set ma
chinery in motion now, with the im
petus of the Davis announcement
because of this stage, halfway be
tween conventions, the fight will not
be 80 bound up in personalities as it
was in 1924, The convention itself
changes its rules. They cannot be
changed either before or after the
convention. If any change is to be
brought about, it must be grounded
in sentiment before the convention
meets and accoplished during the
first two or three days, before the
