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.

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.
