CINCINNATI WHISKEY MAN TELLS
OF PLAN TO NAME BROWN; ALSO
OF WHISKEY CAMPAIGN FUND
Sparks, (1a., April 20, IfloH.
Kill tor Atlanta Journal:
While oil tlio G. S. and F. train between Tlfton and Cordele, I met an
old schoolmate of mine, who wax traveling for a Cincinnati whiskey con
cern.
In discussing the governor's race, he told me not to bet on Hoke Smith,
as the whiskey interests were gtfng to spend a million dollars to defeat
Hoke Smith. I naked him why they didn’t got at least a man who had
made a record as to business ability. Ho says, “Oh, this thing was the
only one we could persuade to run.’’
This young man showed mo letters from his firm showing conclusively
that he was now In the state looking over the situation, trying to find out
where the money would do the most good.
Now when Joe Brown says the whiskey people are not running him for
governor, ho utters a political lie. Very truly,
C. T. MOXLEY, of Wndloy, Ga.
The above card was published some days ago iu the Atlanta
Journal. Mr. Alonzo Harris, who resides on Route 5 from Dallas,
wishing to verify this card and the statements contained therein,
wrote a personal letter to Mr, Moxley. In reply to his letter Mr.
Harris received from Mr. Moxley the following letter which will
explain itself:

Sheriffs Sale.
It ia to be hoped that the peo
ple of Paulding county have no
ticed the trend of things as they
are presented by the various can
didates offering for this impor
tant office and that they will be
. prepared to concentrate their
support for the one who prom
ises most honest effort in our
' behalf.
Remember that our own repre-
, sentative only goes to the legis-
t latnre to help legislate on gener
ic al laws, as we have nothing he-
. fore us at • present purelv local.
, We should then be careful to se-
!* lect a men who is honest and
S who can understand what is best
Lj for. the state and who,' after un-
V derstanding what is best, will
cast his unbiased and unpur-
v chased ballot for the good of all
y concerned.
( One candidate in the field, I
understand, has already tried to
prejudice the minds of the peo
ple of this county by misquoting
facts pertaining to local schools
and local taxes, viz: I have
heard that he has said that the
town of Dallas had used the
funds belonging to the publio
schools of the county for build-
■ ing the local school, and that to
meet local taxes on bond issues
the merchants had advanced
their prices 5%, and so on. Sucli
false statements as these are too
palpable for our people to pat
ronize and I give them credit for
having sense enough to repudi
ate the author. The facts are
the county board agreed to pay
one third the cost of any school
building in Ihe county and have
done so in every case except in
the town, where they have only
paid ‘about oDe-sixth—or just
half as much in proportion as
they have paid to other schools.
Certainly this school has receiv
ed more in dollars and cents, and
yet the burden of the builders
has not been relieved in propor
tion. This school, on the other
hand, is sending out teachers to
all other schools in the county
who are prepared to tehch, and
were it ndt fir this school your
own boys and girls could not be
prepared in the county for these
responsible positions. The can
didate who scatters this slime
among our good people is today
getting his own living out of this
school, and as to local taxation
this town has never floated bonds
and today has no bonds on the
market, and speaking from my
own knowledge there is not a
town of equal importance in
North Georgia whose tax'rate is
not double our own.
Dallas, as a part of Paulding
county, has made individual pro
gress during the last few years,
wh^ch certainly bears its part to
ward giving our county its cor
rect standing in the state, and 1
think I know our people well
enough to feel sure that they
will not patronize demagogery to
the extent that they are cast to
the winds by one who isjso false
and so unworthy. Votir.
Local LyceumJEntertainment.
. Dallas will give a lyceum en
tertainment at the sohool house
Friday evening, the 8th of May,
comprised of local talent. This
is something entirely new for
the town to appear as "profess
ionals’ 1 before a home audience,
but wheu you see aud hear your
friends Friday exening we don’t
think you will be ashamed of
them.
There are several new and
bright features in this entertain
ment that will please you. A
charming {little couple, neither
boy or girl over eight years of
age, will pose in four beautiful
tableaux, the boy playing the
part of a soldier, the girl his
sweetheart. The hoy bids fare
well to his sweetheart before go
ing to war; the girl hears that
he has been killed and swoons
with the telegram in her hand;
.then the gill soliloquizes that for
her country’s sake she can even
give "Jack” up. But in the
fourth picture Sack has returned
"not dead, but wounded,” with
one arm in a sling and the other
outstretched to embrace his
sweetheart. These tableaux
have been given with great stfc-
cess by grown ups but never be
fore have the little ones attempt
ed it, although the Dallas chil
dren selected will show you a
thing or two in posing.
Mrs. H. R. Maxon, a singer of
wide reputation, who has studied
in Europe and held high posi
tions in colleges as a teacher of
music, will contribute several
bdautiful numbers.
Miss Nellie Day Spinks, a most
talented elocutionist, will render
two readings in her own inimita
ble manner.
Miss Mattie Lee Foster, a prize
winner in oratory, will give a
very strong number.
Miss Montgomery has arranged
a beautiful musical number
among the children.
Mr. P. F. Clark will contribute
several numbers on the program.
Prof. Fortsm>er, of Atlanta,
leader of two orchestras and a
violinist of fine ability, will con
tribute to the evening’s program.
Dallas is very fortunate iu get
ting Prof. Fortsmyer. ■
The charge for admission will
be fifteen cents for adults and
ten cents for children. This will
be the last entertainment for the
benefit of the lvceum and every
body should attend.
Remember, next Friday even
ing at 8 o’clock, at the school
house; admission fifteen and ten
cents.
THIRTY MILLION DOLLAR
STOCK COMPANY FORMED
The article below, copied from
the Atlanta Georgian, shows that
there is a little prosperity still
left in the south, especially
Georgia. And t he company even
thanks the Georgia railroad com
mission at the treatment receiv
ed at their hands. Bear in mind
also that that thiR vast amount
of money is all foreign capital—
or nearly so. Times are getting
better with everybody except
the calamity howler:
Accompanied bv James G.
Campbell, the well-known east
ern banker and capitalist, and a
party of engineers, President W.
Jordan Massee, of the Central
Georgia Power Company, arrived
in Atlanta Sunday night from
New York on the way to Macon
to begin work harnessing the Oc-
mulgeo river near Jackson.
In the party were L. N. Far-
num, general manager of con
struction of the J. G. White Com
pany, the company which has the
contract to do the work, and sev
eral engineers. , They will begin
work immediately aud there will
be no cessation until the big dam
is completed and the mammoth
electrical generators installed to
supply middle Georgia with
cheap power.
President Massee has been \n
New York ever since he and his
associates and Mr. Campbell ap
peared some weeks ago before
the ra lroad commission and the
$80,000,000 stock issue and the
$16,000,000 bond issue was sanc
tioned. During this time spent
in New York President Massee
has completed every financial de
tail, signed the contract for the
construction work and brought
the engineers back to Georgia
with him.
"The fact,” said President
Massee, that we have secured
the connection of such great
firms as the banking house of A.
B, Leach & Co., of which Mr.
Campbell is a partner, and the
J. G. White Company, one of the
largest construction corporations
in the world, insures the success
of one of the greatest industrial
enterprises ever undertaken in
Georgia.
Mr. Campbell is thoroughly
satisfied that there is a great fu
ture for Georgia when the great
natural resources of the state are
developed and is determined to
push the work undertaken.
"The poiition of the Georgia
railroad commission,” said Mr.
Campbell, "in approving the se
curities of the company has made
its development possible and we
feel highly gratified at the treat
ment we have received at. the
hands of your efficient officials.”

The Man Who Risks All.
Once upon a time—namely
in March, 1908—-a man was
sentenced to serve five years
in a Federal penitentiary.
The man Jjegan life as a
poor boy, with no one to help
him and with very little for
mal education. As a boy he
worked hard in a humble oc
cupation. By his great ener
gy, industry and ability he
built himself up bit b,y bit,
year by year, until lie became
one of the richest and most
powerful men in the large city
where he lived. Among men
of affairs no one’s judgment
carried greater weight.
At threescore years, in en
joyment of a success as solid
as the granite walls that en
closed his office, he wanted
more success, more money,
more power. To win them he
took fearful risks, hazarding
—as his own sound judgment
nipst have told him if he had
listened to it—more than all
he had gained in a laborious
lifetime, for he began free,
and how he dared the penal
inhibitions of the law. He
lost the stake he played for.
His business enterprises were
wrecked. His name became
a byword. A prison sentence
rests upon him. How is it
possible for a man situated as
he was to take so frightful a
risk?
At about the same time,
four men in another state were
covicted of conniving at thefts
from the public. They, also,
were far above want, success
ful persons of note and stand
ing in their community, al*
ready in enjoyment of the ma
terial things that most men
strive for. How could they
have taken the risk?
The vulgar convict, the
common burglar or pick-pock
et, is easily enough under
stood. But these others—in
telligent, able, successful men,
of whom so many appear in
the course of every year—how
could they have hazarded not
only all they had gained, but
the birthright of liberty itself?
There are,' of course, plenty
of wise explanations. But one
who can imagine must still
see in them strange and sad
enigmas.—The Saturday
Evening Post.
