SENATOR HOKE SMITH ANNOUNCES HIS CANDIDACY FOR THE SENATE e V'-. Senator Hoko Smith gave out a statement In Washington, May 28th, announcing his candidacy for the United Stales Senate. He said: “It has hardly seemed necessary for me to make any formal state ment of tny candidacy for the nomination In August to succeed myself in the Senate. Friends who have supported me in past contests, and many who have opposed me, have written most cordially expressing their purpose to support me for re-election, and have seemed to re gard my candidacy us a certainty. “The newspapers have generously given to the people the facts as to what I have been doing in Washington, and the voters are already lo a large extent, familiar with my efforts to serve the state. “So long ns I am in the Senate it will bo my earnest desire to serve, all the people and to represent them all to the extent of my ability. "While 1 cannot hope that all the voters will agree with me, 1 will not by anything I may do or say, make it even difficult for any citizen lo confer with me on matters In Washington in which he may be in terested. "I have long realized with regret that former politleal contests re sulted as they wero obliged to do, in some acute differences and even estrangements, but I am encouraged by what has been said to me by hundreds of those who have opposed me In the past, to believo that bitterness has been forgotten by others, as If has been by me. “ ipeople have been very generous to me, and 1 am anxious to have every citizen of Georgia, no matter what our past relations iiave been, feel perfectly free to call ou me w hile I am in the Senate when ever I can aervs him, and do so with the full assurance that he will find me his friend, and really pleased to respond to his call. “I will not be able to spend any time in Georgia until after adjourn ment of Congress, which will probably not be earlier than the middle or last of July. I shall devote my entire time while Congress is in sosslou to the discharge of my official duties, and must trust my elec tion to my friends anil those who approve my record in the Senate.” 6ENATOR SMITH'S RECORD IN BRIEF REGIONAL RESERVE BANK—Senator Smith presented and urged the claims of Georgia for a Regional Reserve Bank, which was finally obtained and will be located in Atlanta, with resources of probably fifty million dol lars. which will be available for commercial and agricultural transactions in the section composing the district. FARM DEMONSTRATION WORK—lntroduced and passed the Smith- Lever bill appropriating ultimately five million dollars annually for teaching and demonstrating scientific methods on the farm, both for cultivation of crop? and for stock raising, as well as for marketing, etc. COTTON GAMBLING—Offered Important amendments, which were adopted, to the bill of Senator Smith of South Carolina, to prevent futures gamb ing on the New York Cotton Exchange and to prevent the methods by which the price of spot cotton Is depressed. This bill was passed as amended and is now In the House. If It finally becomes a law, as it passed the Senate, it will save $70,000,000 annually to the farmers of the South and $10,000,000 to the farmers of Georgia. PARCEL POST—As a member of the Committee on Postoffices and Post Roads worked with the Chairman of the Committee In changing the bill as passed by the House so that the low rate zone system was established under which the Parcel Post has been such a marvelous success. L'enator Smith has proposed In the Senate that specially built mail cars be provided for the Parcel Post buslnoss in order that the weight limit may be increased beyond the present fifty pounds and the rate be reduced if pos sible. DIVISION OF MARKETS—At the request of the officers of the Farmers Union, Senator Smith prepared and Introduced a bill establishing a Division of Markets In the Department of Agriculture. An appropriation of $50,000 was Incorporated tp the Agricultural Department bill and the Division has now been operating for nearly two years. It has so demonstrated its possibil ities for service to the farmers that Congress has lately increased the appro priation to SOOO,OOO a year, without a dissenting vote. OPPOSED PENSION I NCR EASE—Fought the passage of the Sherwood Pension bill increasing pensions $75,000,000 a year and was instrumental in its defeat. Fought the McCumber bill increasing pensions $25,000,000 a year and voted against that bill. It was passed despite his efforts, but the fight cut off $50,000,000 a year of the proposed increase. CURRENCY BILL—Was actively identified with the preparation of the Currency bill, establishing Regional Reserve Banks. Forced through the Democratic Caucus an amendment increasing the number from eight to twelve so that one of the banks could be located in the Southeastern cotton section. Offered an amendment reducing the rate of interest on the $500,000*- 000 cf emergency currency more than half and the amendment was adopted unanimously by the Democratic Caucus and passed by the Senate without a dissenting vote. Insisted on the amendment allowing notes given for farm transactions to run six months, although other notes are limited to ninety days. Introduced a bill to allow National banks to lend money on farms and this was incorporated in the Currency bill and such loans can now be made for five years, whereas formerly they were prohibited by law. AID TO ROAD BUILDING —Senator Smith has charge of the bill in the Senate which was passed by the House and which was prepared after con ference with him, appropriating $75,000,000 to aid the States in road building He advocates the expenditure of the funds entirely by the States and favors spending the money on top soil, sand clay and similar inexpensive roads, sc that the greatest poss ble number of people will be benefitted. Georgia's share n the appropriation would be over $700,000. FOREIGN IMM ; GRATION.—Voted for the bill restricting foreign im migration through the educational qualification and otherwise; voted to pass the bill over President Taft's veto and it was so passed but failed in the House. COMPENSATION BILL—In the face of almost insurmountable odds defeated the so-called "Workmen's Compensation” bill which was designed to deprive employees on railroads of their legal rights. PROTECTED SOUTHERN STATES.—Urged an amendment to the Ar bitration Treaties, which was adopted, to protect Southern States against being sued on fraudulent bonds of Reconstruction times. OPPOSED NEGRO APPOINTMENTS—Opposed the confirmation of a negro to be Register of the Treasury and induced the President to withdraw his name and an Indian was appointed. Fought the confirmation of a neg-o to be judge of the Municipal Court in Washington. Kept up the fight two months and mustered twenty-four votes but could not get the full co-opera tion of Northern and Western Democrats, Urged the removal of the negro Recorder of Deeds and h s resignation was called for and accepted, leaving a white man in charge as assistant. COMMITTEE PLACES.—Is a member of the following Committees: Education and Labor, of which he is chairman; Finance; Judiciary; Rules; Agriculture and Forestry; Poetofficee and Post Roads; Library and the Steer ing Committee.
