puted to be the greatest woman
orator in America, will deliver an
address in this city August 16th
at the Central Methodist Church
at 8 p.m. Mrs. Armour is known
far and wide as one of the greatest
prohibition leaders in the country
and her lecture in Fitzgerald will
no doubt be greeted by a large
crowd. Following is one of the
many glowing tributes that have
been paid Mrs. Armour since she
has ceen on the lecture platform:
GEORGIA’S MOST DISTINGUISHED
DAUGHTER.
Griffin, Ga., Jan. 6, 1909.
When Mrs. Armour spoke at
Belleview Chautauqua, 15 miles
from Omaha, Neb., last summer,
the management was so pleased
that they begged her to alluw
them to arrange for a debate on
prohibition with Hon. James
Dahlman, mayor of Omaha and
liquor candidate for governor of
the state. The crowd was im

5,000 people were under the tent.
Even the Omaha papers—all for
liquor—admitted that the crowd

John M. Slaton
for :State Road
Atlanta, Ga., August s—John
M, Slaton candidate for governor
is positively opposed to any in
crease in the bonded indebtedness
of the state. He takes the position
that the present debt should he
paid before another bond is sold,
He is also in favor of the state
forever retaining possesion of the
Western & Atlantic railroad and
is opposed to any move that might
threaten the loss of that magnifi
cent property.
Moonlight Picnic.
The Ocilla Southern announces
that a ‘‘Moonlight Picnic’’ will
be held at Lucy Lake of the night
of August Bth, to which the gen
eral public is invited. A special
train will leave the A., B. & A.
depot at 6:30 o’clock, returning
at 11 p. m.
formal decision was rendered,
but it was freely predicted that
it would defeat Mayor Dahlman
for governor, and so it proved,
for he failed to get the nomina
tion. Every Georgian should
know and hear Mary Armour,
Georgia’s most distinguished
daughter.—Mrs. T. E. Patterson.
