There will be a ‘hot’ cam-’ paign in the Second congress ional district this summer if Judge Frank Park follows the pace set by Judge E. E. Cox, in the opening speech of his cam paign at Tifton Saturday after noon Judge Cox spoke for near ly two hours to an audience that filled the auditorium of Tift county court house. The major part of his speech was devoted to Judge Park’s record in con gress, with especial reference to his building up an organization by means of postoffice appoint ments. At this conclusion he invited Judge Park or any of his friends some notable commissions, Champ Clark’s speech in which Park was referred to as the “baby” congressmen, and numer ous other instances. Quite scathing was his ridicule of Judge Park’s numerous bills, which Cox said had included everything from establishing a sweet shrub station in Miller county to the conquest in Mexico. Some of these bills he had in troduced as many as three times, but had never followed but one out of the committee room, said the speaker. His bill for the acquirement of Mexico, either by purchase, treaty or conquest was introduced at a time when THE HAND CONCERTS State Meeting to be Held in Savannah, Ga.

He discussed the issues that are in the campaign or liable to be in a very interesting manner and gained some friends in the audience. Mr. Pottle is really no stranger in this city as his brother Judge Bob Pottle is well known here, having practiced law with Mr. T. S. Hawes of this city. The speech of Mr. Pottle made a good impression and it seemed to his hearers that he was a man that had highest of ideals and that he was basing his campaign on a high plane. Mr. Pottle did not have much time in the city but while here met a large number of our citizens and it is no flattery to say that he made friends while here. As a campaign orator he will draw his audience to him wherever he goes and it is an agreed fact that he will make a great bid tor the honor of governor. ATTENTION BOOSTERS Friday night, June 16th, is the regular meeting night of the Boosters and a meeting of same will be held at 8 o’clock. All Boosters are urged to be present, as several matters of importance are to come up. [E. F. Vickers, Chief Booster. and Turner counties, Judge Cox’s speech might be classed under two heads, his platform of constructive legi slation, and criticism of his op ponent’s public record. His plat form includes preparedness, a merchant marine, pension reform, divorce of public service from the trustees and the main tenance of the sovereignity of the states. Perhaps the point given most attention was economy in public expenditures. The parts of Judge Park’s record most severe ly handled were writing into the public records campaign literature for the franking pri vilege. There included Franklin K. Lane’s “Old Field School” SSUED S 1 l who did not like his statements the administration was straining to meet him on the stump.

That for a bridge across the Flint river at Newton was a dangerous example and that to pension rural carriers displaced where motor routes were sub stituted for horse-drawn vehicles was opening the way for a pen sion for every retiring post master. Judge Cox said he was his own candidate, wore his own collar, had made no promises to influ ence any man’s votes but said he never yet sold a friend or bought an enemy, and will never be found crowning an enemy and crucifying a friend.

THE REMOVAL SALE OF THE FI | on p; l?e Twelve) Mr. Morgan, paster of the Methodist church wishes to an nounce in this issue that H. T. Suillian, the layman who was to be in charge of the services Sunday will not be here. He will be in Atlanta, but will be here later. Mr and Mrs. A. R.

The Famous announces its re moval sale this week and will put out an immense line of ladies goods at very low prices. They are having their new home fixed up on the corner where the old post office used to be and when in their new quarters they will have the neatest place in the city to do business. They are going to try and sell out as much of their stock as they can to prevent moving and handling them and in their advertisement they offer some very splendid bargains that the ladies will not have a chance to duplicate in many years. Reading their advertisement „.ie would wonder why they could sell stuff as they offer but to move a stock is a hard job and they will sell it at very low prices to keep from having this to do. Quite a number of special features are offered that is worth the looking into. Read their advertisement afld visit their store. Palm Beach Suits Cleaned 35c. See me and get a monthly rate.

A BAINBRIDGE BOY We received a copy of the In dustrial Banker last week that is published at Birmingham, Ala., and it was with interest and pleasure that we noticed that a former fellow townsman was among the officers of the company.
