Watt Harris, of Bartow, Out for Congress. bears the burden by his daily pur chases of the protected articles. Such a tax is necessary to prevent the growth of those immense for tunes which constitute a menace to our form of government. The existing condition in which, those who have the least protection from the government have to pay the most tax, and those who have the most protection, pay the least, can not be defended. I am of that class, and one of those, who have suffered from the increased value of money and the decreased value of land and its products. A dollar that buys too much grain or cotton or product of labor can lay no claim to being called an honest dollar. Such a j condition is the result of an inad-j equate volume of currency, and j with a zeal and experience, horn! of personal loss, I endorse and! will advocate the free and unlim ited coinage of both gold and sil ver at the present ratio and with- j out discrimination.

Such an j |^ W ^ OLE8 ^ L ^ P * PE " ° EALE J ,9 ‘ a Rousing Majority. Announcement in Full. His Hon. Watt Harris, of Carters- ville, has made his formal an nouncement before the voters of this District as a candidate for the democratic nomination for Con gress and his remarks in full are published below. It is scarcely necessary to re mark upon the platform of Mr. Harris or the methods which he will use in his campaign. He is known in every county in the Seventh as a man of intellect and pure political aims and one who is ready and willing to serve his constituents. His announcement speaks for itself and there is little doubt that his majority will be an overwhelm ing one: To the Democrats of the Seventh Congressional District: I announce my candidacy for Congress subject to the party’s action. Born and reared in the district, my lot is cast with its citizens, and all of my interests, except an humble cottage, lie in the fields and hills of the country. In the prosperity of the agricul tural interests lies my prosperity, and by its depression I am loser. Since my majority I have never failed to support the principles of the party, nor have I ever scratch ed my party’s ticket. I endorse the party’s platform, and pledge an active support to its every declaration. 1 condemn the reckless expen diture of money that Congress daily permits. Every extrava gance is a tax upon the people and comes at last from their earn- ings. I condemn the protective tariff, h nder it we pay tribute to the Eastern and Northern manufactur er > already rich at our cost. A tariff, for revenue only, to defray the expenses of the government, economically administered, is the °aly tariff that can justly be im posed upon the people, and this tariff should be so laid as that its benefits, as well as its burdens, should be equally distributed among all sections of the country a ^ e - If protection is incidental t° the tariff, then I demand that the agriculturist and ore producer °f this section have their equal ^ aie of its benefits. Their claims Ve too long been neglected. * en dorse the demand for a graduated federal income tax. m is just, for wealth ought not ko allowed to shirk its share of t. e ' na 'dens of government. Man- aoturers of protected articles, * ncomes rea °b into the hun- °t thousands by reason of 8 'ernmental favoritism, pay no **** tax, while the ----- issue can be made as safe as a State bond and would furnish a local and flexible supply of honest money that would bring increase and gladness to a long suffering people. I condemn as undemocratic a too long tenure of office. It be gets the idea that it is personal property to the holder, and the people’s right to call for an ac counting and to change its ser vants is denied, and by the unsel fish use of patronage, the unfit and unacceptable servant perpetu ates himself in power. It surely leads to venal methods, and pub lic office, which should be a public trust, becomes a commercial com- odity. Such were not the meth ods of our fathers. I oppose trusts and monopolies, and I point to and condemn that political trust and monopoly in Floyd county, which has by its schemes dominated the better ele ment of the county, and which essays to dictate to the entire dis trict and to perpetuate in office their beneficiary and exponent Until this year the party has walked in the paths of democratic usage and precedent in all of its nominations. In each one since the war, every county has had its individual vote apportioned to its membership in the legislature. The automony of the counties, large or small, was preserved. The executive committee of the State recognizes each county’s right to express its indiyidual views in the selection of a candi date for the high office of Govern or of Georgia, and candidates for the Supreme bench of the State This method has heretofore been satisfactory and efficient. It was even deemed, so when the absent Everett was defeated during his first term, while he answered to the roll call of duty at Washing ton, and the same methods an swered all purposes for the three nominations of the present incum bent.

It is a new de parture. It is a menace to de mocracy. It was an affront to those honorable gentlemen from Harallson and Polk and Walker whose ambition was worthy of fairer treatment. It was neither fixed nor favored by me or my friends. The committee erred. Their people did not ask or even agitate a change, away from the center of the political trust. They should meet and correct the error. Unless they do, harm will result. The unusually early date fixed for primaries for Congressional candidates, precipitates the cam- paign, and I respectfully invite any one who is the intended bene ficiary of this recent dispensation, to go before the district with me in joint discussion of the various issues involved. I shall appeal to the old demo cratic spirit of the district in ev- eiy county where I can find an audience and ask their support. I confess to an ambition to stand in the halls of Congress representing this people, voicing their wishes and urging their demands. To their loyal service I would devote my every energy. So honored and so trusted, no act of mine public or private should ever bring shame upon the coinmission I held. I should be too grateful to be un true or neglectful of their interests.
