JOSEPH N. BROWN IN
RACE FOR GOVERNOR
•Announcment and Platform are
aiven to the People of the State.
Former Commissioner De
fines His Attitude.
Hon. Joseph M. Brown, of Ma
rietta, former railroad commis
sioner, has issued an announce
ment to the peoDle of Georgia of
his candidacy for governor, sub
ject to the democratic primary
of June 4th.
Mr. Brown’s announcement of
his candidacy and outline of his
platform are as follows:
“To the people of Georgia: Al
though I have unexpectedly re
ceived a great' number of letters,
petitions and spoken requests,
representing many thousands of
people, a large majority of whom
are fimjysjs,, laboring men, •ftraw'
ufactur7rs and business men, to
allow the use of my name as a
candidate for governor of Geor
gia, subject to the primary, Jane
4. As compliance involves pos
sibly a chance in the practices
and plans of a lifetime, I have
refrained from announcing a de
cision, hoping that some other
candidate would come to the
front. But as that hope has not
been realized, I have been forced
to the conclusion that it is my
duty to obey the call which my
fellow citizens have made.
“In determining the question
i of the advisability of making the
race, I carefully considered the
claim of certain adherents of the
present administration that the
fixed policy of the state is to
give the incumbent of the gov
ernor’s office a second term as a
matter of course since the adop
tion of the constitution of 1877.
That instrument limits the term
to two years, and precedent can
not amend it so as to stretch a
term into four years. And if it
could the best interests of the
people demand its revocation
where the administration involv
ed, either through design or lack
of knowledge, has wrought disas
ter to the prosperity of the peo
ple. Government should not on
ly be ‘of the people,’ but ‘for the
people.’
As to Second Term Precedent,
“Furthermore, in his published
statement that he would not en
ter the race for United States
senator, the present governor did
not base his declination on the
ground that he was under an ob
ligation of honor to serve the
second term. That declination
was upon entirely other reasons.
Hence, if he be free to ignore it,
how can it be binding on the
democratic party as to him? If
he has the option to accept it or
not, the party has the option to
tender it or not.
“But in his speech at Decatur,
March 9 he enumerated among
the official plans he has for the
future, the enactment of the so-
called ‘port rates.’ These rates,
if made effective, mean the ruin
of the industries of Georgia, and,
as a corollary, the destruction of
the nearby markets for farmers
of our own state. It is therefore
imperative to Georgia that this
plan should be made impossible
of ^fulfillment, since the mere
threat of it and kindred declara
tions has wrought serious disaster
to our people.
Mr. Brown’s Platform.
“If elected, 1 shall give the
people an adurnistration charac
terized by the strictest economy,
and shall favor the following
measures:
“1. A return to the payment
in one sum of confederate pen
Bions, such as prevailed before
the advent of the present state
administration.
“2. The reduction of taxation
as quickly and to as great an ex
tent as can be mads practically.
“8. The regulation of the rail-
railroads. This should be done
with firmness, but with judg
ment, holding equally in mind
the rights of the public who trav
el and ship, of the stockholders
who own the properties and of
the lives and fair wages of the
employees.
“4. The proper support of all
public institutions.
“5. As liberal appropriations
for the common schools as the
public finances will allow.
The Railroad Commission.
“6. Changes in the railroad
commission law, viz.: First, the
repeal of those parts which give
the commission jurisdiction over
such local institutions as tele
phones, gas and electric lighting
plants, cotton compresses and
street railways. Secondly, to in
sert the requirement that oue of
the commissioners shall be a rate
expert, and to repeal that section
providing for a rate expert not a
commissioner, thus saving $4,000
per annum in that office. Third
ly, to compel railroads to proper
ly light and heat passenger sta
tions and to require equitable de
murrage rules.
“7. The establishment of a
department of labor.
As to Prohibition.
“8. The strict enforcement of
the present prohibtion law. If
the people in the coming election
choose members of the general
assembly who, in accordance
with the will of their constitu
ents, make any changes in the
present law, I will sign the b II
thus ordered by the people.
“9. The enactment of a law
against lobbying, so as to pre
serve the purity of our legisla
tive system, the same as the pur
ity of our jury system.
“10. The encouragement, by
a proper administration of the
laws, ot the agricultural, mercan
tile and manufacturing industries
of the state. The assurance, not
only to citizens of this state, but
to citizens of other states, that
all capital invested in legitimate
enterprises in Georgia shall have
the equal protection of the laws
aud the equal friendly considera
tion of those who administer the
laws of Georgia.
Against Undesirable Immigration.
“11. The discouragement by
all legal methods of undesirable
immigration.
“I make no promise that I in
dividually, or in mv official ca
pacity, will accomplish any of
the results above indicated, for,
while one man, if he be governor,
may cripple and possibly wreck
the prosperity of the state, it re
quires the co-operation of the
poople and the executive to re
store confidence and upbuild that
which has been prostrated.
Hence, 1 should ask your earn
est co-operation. I confess that
I have none of the arts of the
politician, and no great newspa
per to urge my candidacy, but I
have faith in the people.
“In conclusion, let us unite to
prove that Georgia will be just
to all whose citizenship, or in
vestments, are within her bord
ers. Let us unite to restore em
ployment, with good wageR, to
those who are now the unmerited
victims of an unnecessary panic.
Let us unite to prevent cotton
from falling to an unprofitable
price. Let us unite to bring back
prosperity to Georgia. Respect
fully, your fellow citizen,
“Joseph M. Brown.
