FOR SHERIFF. •
To the Voters of Polk County:—1
liave, for some lime, contemplated en
tering the race for SlierifI of Polk
county. I have withheld a public an
nouncement for a settlement of the
question ns to whether or not a white
primary would be liehl l r the selection
of county ollicers, being unable to buy
votes, and also opposed conscientiously
to vote buying, even if I were ablo to
buv them. That question being settled,
since nearly all the people" of the county
who have expressed their wishes anil
opinions on the subject have pro
nounced in favor of a white primary,
and the Committee tlie people elected
to manage it have called lor a white pri
mary to be held on August the loth for
the selection of county ollicers, I feel
that there is an open field and a fair race
for all, whether rich or poor, upon their
merits and qualifications for office. X,
therefore, announce myself a candidate
for the olllce of Sheriff, subject to the
white primary on the date aboye men
tioned. It 1 am not the nominee of the
white voters of the county for that of-
iic“, I am for the man who is. II elected.
I shall endeavor to show my apprecia
tion of the confidence my fellow-citi
zens repose'in me by making the best
officer 111,my power. My Deputies will

A GOOD SUGGESTION
For an Attractive Feature on the
Glorious Fourth.
The proposed Fourth of J uiy cele
bration in Cedartown is meeting
with general favor, and much inter
est is being manifested.
A suggestion was recently pub
lished in The Standard ihat a
bicycle parade be made a feature of
the day, which was favorably re
ceived. It is now suggested that
this bicycle parade he composed of
boys and girls under sixteen years of
-age, mounted on decorated wheels;
and it is requested that all who can
participate in this parade will give
their names to Col. J. C. Walker at
as early a date as possible.
With the best band and the best
fire department in North Georgia
and a good number of gaily decora
ted wheels in the parade, and with
business*houses and residences hand
someiy draped with flags and bunt
ing, and with some live patriotic
speeches, Cedartown will have a
Fourth of July celebration worth
coming miles to attend.
By the way, our citizens should
see to it that the Baugh-Zimmerman
Band is nicely unifermed before
that time.
