HON. H. H. PERRY
Of Hall County Announces for
United States Senator.
Mr. Perry points out that the bur
den of Federal taxation collected
through the tariff and internal reve
nue and amounting to over $5O a year
for each family, is entirely on the
backs cfithe people and is not shared
in proportion by the wealthy classes.
That an income tax on large incomes,
as in FKuropean countries, would noti
only relieve the masses of the peo
ple, but would dispense with the ne
cessity for high tariff duties. ‘
He shows that sheltered by the tar
iff wall, great monopclies control the
necessities of life; that the excessive
prices thus imposed on the peobple
amount to 1,500 millions a year. The
Southern farmers, as well as the bal
ance of us, pay out cre-third of the
proceeds of their labor in excessive
prices, for which they get no value
received. That witk this burden re
moved, even with cotton at [ow prices
their profits would make them inde- |
pendent. It is these burdens which
in spite of their industry keep the
farmer on a strain frem crop to crop
and the laboring man on one from day |
to day. ‘ 1
[le advocates absolute ercliibition |
and punishment of so-called f.z’usts!
and monopoiies of all Kinds, but |
thinks an inceme tax and low mriff]
would largely break them up.
He favors striet regulation of mil-!
roads and other public service corpo
rations to prevemt discrimination and
unjust rates.
He favors stricter laws against free
passes and lobbying and safeguard
ing our legislation from the: influ
ence of special imterests.
He is in favor of the parcels post,
more stringent imrmigration laws; and
of laws prohibiting speculation om all
products of the farm. He advocates
a government express service, with
rates according to distance.
He is opposed to the distributiom
by congress members of free gardem
seed, or other things of value.
He is opposed to private pension
bills and all extravagant appropria
tions and to the excessive mileage
and other allowances and privileges:
to congressmen im addition to their
salaries. v
He advocates better labor labillty
laws. He opposes the employment of
children under 12 years in mills and
factories, and is for shorter hours: of
labor for those employed.
He insists that im all cases the peo
ple should select the United States
senators, and this office should: no
longer be a plum to be handed: out
by the politicians. |
He believes tke Panama canal
should be made free, and that such
poliey would greatly build up eour
South Atlantic ports. He believes
interstate shipments of intoxicants
should be strictly regulated for the
protection of prohibition communi
ties.
He favors Federal aid in building
good roads, and in maintaining
schools for practical agricultural edu
cation.
MR. PERRY'S RECOCRD,
Judge H. A. Mathews, weil known
and honored throughout the state,
when introducing Mr. Perry in Hous
ton county, said: “1 have served with
him in the senate and the house,
and can say no cone has done more
: in the past ten years to advance the
interests of Georgia. In broad sechol
- arship, in mastery of the great na
|tiolml and constitutional questions,
and in practical statesmanship, I
know no man better fitted to repre
sent us in the United States senate.”
E Others also eminent have borne sim
ilar testimony to his services and fit
| ness.
i Dr. E. W. Watkins, one of our most
prominent public men, introducing
‘ Mr. Perry in Gilmer, said: “He has
done more than any other man for
| advanced legislation in the state.”
| Mr. Perry, while born and reared in
l South Georgia, removed Wwhen a
young man to North Georgia, and is
[N oo b 5 . SRR ot i 2 I B I SO
id:ntifed with that secticn. But hav
ing lived in both sections, he would
know the needs of the entire state.
He has been chairman of the com
mittee c¢n the censtitution eight
years in the house and senate, and
lalso chairman of the judiciary com
| mittee three years in the Georgia sen
i ate,
| e was the sole author of the bill
' establishing the eleven district agri
]cultural schoels, which have attraci
fed the attention of the world. He
‘} was the author of the constitutional
amendment limiting the tax rate to
five mills. He drafted the bill as it
' now stands on the statute book and
led the fight for it in the senate, re
quiring the ccrporations to pay taxes
~n their franchises, which was passed
in lieu cf the excellent but imperfect
Lill first passed im the house, This
measure has been bringing seven or
eight hundred thousand dollars a
year in additional taxes, reilieving the
people to that extent. He seized the
npportune moment and intrcduced
and successfully supported the bill
establishing the court of appeals,
which has dene so much to expedite
the administration of justice in Geor
gia.
He introduced in 1902 the first gen
eral bill against free passes.
He introduced in 1906 the first bill
to reorganize and strengthen the rail
road commission and supported and
added valuable amendments to the
present law, among them the provi
sion which for the first time gave
the commission the power to require
proper service as well as the power
to regulate rates.
He was the author of the first meas
ure to reduce¢ railroad passenger
rates, putting telephone companies
under control of the railrcad com
mission, and of the bill repealing the
10-mile limit in the railroad law and
thus opened the way for electrie trol
ley lines through the country.
He was the first, perhaps, who ever
publicly advecated in the legislature
the law against drunkenness on the
public roads. He assisted in draft
ing and supported the bill prohibiting
the sale of intoxicating wines in pro
hibition counties. He supported the‘
measure to put a $lO,OOO tax on locker l
clubs. He vigorously opposed alf|
bills to estahlish disperisaries. I
He first advocated in the senate a
bill against speculating in farm prod
ucts, and afterwards in the house as
sisted in framing and passing the
present law against bucket shops.
He opposed and aided. in defeatingz
the measure to appoint a: commission
to encourage foreign immigration to
the state, being in favor of the nat
ural influx of gcod citizens, but op
posed to the artificial stimnulius of for
eign immigration which: would tend
to bring in undesirable elements.
He was cone of the leading oppon
ents of the convict lease system, and
advocated the use of the conwviets on
the roads of the state.
He was largely instrumental, as
chairman of the committee, in pass
ing the measure giving a pension to
all Confederate veterans owning less
than 1,500, though he preferred mno
limit.
He has always supported’ ths cause
of education, and liberal apprtopria
tions ta the common schools.
He persistently championed tie res
olution to adopt the income tax
amendment when it first came to the
legislature in 1909, and was referred
to in the Northern press: ass ane of
the foremost leaders in its favor.
While he has always fought ail bills,
in the interest of special concerns
and against the interest of the public:.
his friends point to Mr., Perry’s reec
ord in progressive and constructive
legislatfon, to show his close study
of public questions, and that he has~
been in accord with the advanced pub
lic sentiment on these subjects.
SENATOR BACON’S RECORD.
Instead of voting in thie iaterest of
the people, Senator Bacon woted with
Aldrich for a duty of from $1.50 to
$3.00 a 3 thousand omn lumber. He:
voted with Aldrich against free irom
ore. He voted to strike gut “rough
and dressed lumber” from the farm
ers’ free list bill, known. as the Un
derwood free list. He woted against
free wood pulp and frea printing pa
per and other paper, amd against free
rice and free lemons; and free ecoal,
when the farmers’ free list bill was
up for action. He vated with Aldriek
against free sugar from the Philip
pines. No one could have cast these
votes who had at heart the interest
of the common peaple. He was rep
resenting in these votes the iron and
lumber and other capitalists, and not
the people at large. In order to pro
tect special interests he was giving
countenance to the principle that has
kept the South impoverished for 50
years, and thus crippled himse¥ and
other Democrats in their debate on
protection. He contended in the sen
ate for the right of corporations to
establish bureaus te promote immi
gration and to even pay the passage
meney of immigrants through state
acents. This pecliey would- flood our
country with undesirable aliens, bu
was much urged by the “interests”
in order to get cheap labor and per
haps reduce the price of cotten. He
voted to permit the employment of
children under 12 in mills and facto
ries. when having needy parents. It
- would be better for the government
' to relieve the parents than saerifice
| the children, He opposed and voted
!against the national pure food law.
l The inaction and failure of such
men as Mr. Bacon, who have been
'in office and had the opportunity, to
more earnestly insist uvon the vigor
| ous use of the Federal power, alone
iequ:‘.l to it, to curb the trusts ang
Ima‘nopolies, is today responsible for
' the conditions which oppress the
E people.
