NARDMAN MAKES RINGING APPEALFOR FRIENDS TO VOTEINPRIMARY
LEDGES CLEAN OUT OF
CHEAP POLITICAL IN ALL
. STATE OFFIZES IN GEORGIA.
- ATLANTA, Ga., October s—“As
e campaign nears its close and we
and on the even of the primary
ednesday,” Dr. Hardman said
one can see through the clearing
gmoke of a new day dawning in
eorgia. Obstructionists, machinez,
aste and extravagance of tax
oney must'stop. In my travels over
he state I have found an aroused
itizen, a strong tendency to rid
eorgia of every vestige of machine
olitics and clumsy handling of state
affaire, and a determination on the
part of voters to turn cver affairs
of this state to a competent business
man,
Clcan Administration
“I promised a clean administra
tion and have pledged myself to rid
the capitol of every parasite, to
clean out every department that is
not functioning for the best inter
ests of Georgia, and to place the
state’s affairs on a husiness basis.
I renew that pledge here and now.
My first duty as governor will go
to the bottom of state department
affairs, the banking department,
the agriculivral depariment and all
others about which there may te
one suspicion,
““I go into office free and un
nledged to any ring or set of men.
I have conducted my campaign on
' ‘ighest possible plane, charg

ren knowledge and able to substan
tiate proof of every assertion of
waste and extravagance and mis
management of state affaires. “I have
gone on record many months age as
opposing a great state hond iszue,
a matter which the opposition
soucht teo inject into the race to
Eecioud the real issues.
, “The charges that I offered ‘the
highway chairmanship to Governor
Walker or any one else was proven
false and without foundation. The
same goes for other charges against
me regarding appointments in event
of my election. These things were
thrown before the public without re
gard for truth and were wilfully pa
raded by Mr. Holder’s political boss
es,
Objcct of Vituperation
“The bitter charges against my
publie, and even my personal life,
have drawn to my side and defense
thousands of good friends who have

the best interests of my fellowman,
my state and my country.
“As the race nears its close I
want my friends througnout the

ballots for Georgia’s welfare. I have
no doubt as to the outcome if
those loyal Georgians who beiicve in
good government will go to the palls,
“The opposition forces, coziposed
of small rings in many sections will
poll full strength, but that hopeless
minority will never be able to retain
“its grip on the throat of Georgia.
‘\Th(- end of ring rule is near and
a great day in Georgiz is just in
‘the offing, o f ?il’
May that day dawn bright and
bring with it more building, more
prosperity, more peace, less strife
and bitterness and more lasting good
will among all classes.”

HARDMAN FORCES IN
FINAL ROUND
HERE
Hrdman workers here today
warned that thoze who expeet to
carry this county for their candi
“dites better be up and at the polls
carly totiorrow morning and at work
to eet all the Hardman vote out,
so that there will be less daneer of
loging the county. They warn that
theer is an abundance of Holder
money being expended in the state
to carry it against Dr., Hardman.
Honest John And The Bank Looters
Nobody wishes to charge IHolder with the bank failures, but
the cighty.three little Goorgia institutions went (o the bhad at a
time when the state banking deparbuent counid open Holder heads
quaeiters in a whole floor of the Conley huilding in Atlanta at the
oxpense of the depositors—and appoint Holder's friends to admin.
fster their assets, The state capitol isn't larpge enough. The
clozed banks had to pay for & whole floor in the Conley building
for Bennott and hiz locting lavwers to campaign for Holder—until
IHolder found it was taking off his political head,
Weo challenge any one to show a Bennoit appointee who i
not working tooth and toe nail for John Holder. That group of
grafting lawyers in the Conley Building headguarters for Holder
are—or have been until recent dayvs—ag they openly admit, doing
their utmost to clect John Holder, Bennett hag all but admitted
throuzh Luther Roberts, lawyer, that he had his understanding
with Tolder tht he would do Holder the good tnrn of naming
his friends to take c¢harge of the cloged banks in return for . re.
appointment as hanking suporintendent when Holder was electoed,
Bennett was elad to make this trade early in the campaign, for
he thought, ag all the vingstor politicians thonght, that Hoider had
the governor's office “sewed up.”
The hank lawyers looted--and the court turned them down
in this necek of the woode—but in others in others, oh, bov- What
the depositors in the little banks whose doors were closzed on tne
careclessness of a Tolder iingster-—Bennett--what they lost, and
will continue to lose to these looters there is no way of estimat
ing at this hour, for they have no eongcience, Dennett wos ran
ning all his forces in an cffort to elect Holder--and the little
banks failed just in time for him to apvoint [Holder's friends to
pick them clean, Don't talk Holder to us—-hecaise we know some
thing about Dennett's crowd and their effort to elect Holder,
Don't let anybody fool you, Mr, Voter. ®ct's rid ourselves ol
this kind of cheap politics. Vote for Hardman tomorrow and
watch these fellows get out!
