you have a rumbling sound or ini

More About the Railroad
Civil Engineer D. G. Zciglcr has
about completed his work of sur
veying and getting data of the
shipping that can lie expected by
the Homer and Lula Railroad.
He is an expert in his line, having
twenty years experience, and is
connected with some of the big in
terests of the country. He lias a
wide acquaintance among people
who finance railroads and othei
enterprises. Mr. Zeigier does not
say this him self but the letters he
has received from parties who
want to construct this railroad
proves to us that they have con
lidence in his estimates. 'I he road
will de able to declare a divadend
of over 30 percent, if the amount
of shipping is as great in tie fu
ture as it has been during 1912-
1.3, and it is reasonable to sup
pose that it will be greater. As it
now appears no diflieulty will Is
encountered in having the mad fi
nanced.
Railroad Meeting.
All persons interested in the
Lula & Homer Railroad are urgent
ly requested to meet at Lula on
Monday, Oct. 2iith, at one o’clock.

PROGRESSIVE CANDIDATES FOR THE SENATE
J - j
Hon. C. W. McClure. Opposing
Hoke Smith.
I am making this race as a busi
ness man on a business platform.
I would not have come out at all
had not Senator Smith guaranteed
that if you would nominate him, he
would stay in Washington, and get
you 12 cents for cotton, well know,
ing the primary would be over be
fore you would have time to know
whether he was telling the truth or
not. Congress could loan 8 cents a
pound on cotton at 3 per cent inter
est —that is as much as they get
if you elect McClure and Hutchens,
the whole Democratic party, includ
ing the Administration will decide
it is time to do something to relieve
cotton and take care of the South in
the manner they take care of the
West aud Wall street w hen they are
in distress.
Up to now it has been proper for
you to blame Congress and Hoke
for not doing anything, but if you
vote to re-elect him now. the blame
rests on yourself, it is up to you to
protect your own interests.
Now it is your time to get even.
Don't be fooled by more promises!
PLATFORM OF THE PROGRESSIVE PARTY.
1. We favor a measure along the lines of the bill presented in Congress
by Representative Henry. .
' ■>. We stand on the Constitution of the United States as to tha wisdom
of the separation of the affairs of Church and State.
3. We l'eel that it would be a shame lor any Prohibition sta.e to be rep
resented in the United States Senate by a tool of the whisky ring, and
we favor tiie submission of a Constitutional Amendment on the prohibition
of the liquor traffic. ~
4. We condemn the failure of the present administration to provide an
efficient system of rural credits, which, if now law, would be of untold ben
efit to the farmers in their present extremity.
5. We favor the State furnishing school books free to all children in the
public schools.
6. We protest against our inadequate and inefficient election laws. In
primary election we favor a common primary for all parties, held on the
same day, under the supervision and at the expense of the state. In gen
eral elections, we stand for the Australian ballot.
7. We believe the time has arrived when the best interests of Georgia
and of the South demand a strong second white political party bas*d
upon sound governmental principles.
We expect thousands of men to vote our ticket this time who may nev
vote it again, and they are at perfect liberty to return to their ow n parti
next election. We are asking them to vote with us and rebuke the md
ference shown our section. If you want to help in any way write ca
fidentialiy to J. L. SIBI.EV, Campaign Manager, Atlanta, Ga.
VOTE FOR McCLURE AND HUTCHENS, NOV. 3RD.
-
Judge G. R. Hutchens, Opposing
Tom Hardwick.
Who destroyed the Democratic par
ty in Georgia? Hoke Smith and T. W.
Hardwick.
Hardwick nominated against the will
of the people by rank fraud binds no
bed; to support him.
The Smith Hardwick combination
turned out of the Macon convention 39
legally accredited delegates and put
in men they could control in order to
defeat the will of the people. They
did so. I come now and appeal to the
people themselves.
Where are the rights of the people?
Conditions in Georgia demand two
white political parties —NOW.
Don't be timid. If you favor decent
politics vote for McClure and Hutchens
on November 3d.
There’s no Democratic party in
Georgia now. It is a "Hoax Myth ' par
ty or nothing.
