ment 1 confidently refer to my long service
in this department of the state government,

WILLIAM J. SPEER.
For Congress.
To the voters of the Sixth Tongresslonßl
District:—l am a candidate for Congress
subject to the Democratic nomination.
Before the election—the dnte of which has
not been llxed—l would like to grasp the
hand and speak face to face with each voter
In the district, but this will hardly be pos
sible. Hence, I shall endeavor to reach the
voters and make known my platform—my
views on public questions—through the
medium of letters, the newspapers and pub
lic addresses.
Whereof I speak I will be glad to have my
distinguished opponent meet me In joint
debate; and shall invite him to do so.
Believing in a clean election and an hon
est ballot,l am opposed to the use of money,
whiskey, or any other thing for the purpose
of purchasing votes; and believe the Ex
ecutive Committee should refuso declare as
the nominee anyone who secures a majority
by such practices.
I shall keep an itemized statement of my
campaign expenses subject at all times to
public Inspection.
Not counting the Republican regime Just
after the war, and when there was a Repub
lican Congressman whose home was in Ma
con, Bibb county has had—with the excep
tion of two years—the Congressman con
tinuously for over a third of aeentury. Hon.
j. H. Blount was in congress twenty years
and Judge Bartlett, at the expiration of the
present term of office, will have served
fourteen years, making a grand total of
thirty-four years for only two men and both
from Bibb county.
Is it not about time for Bibb to divide
honors with tne other counties of the dis
trict? Very Respectfully,
O. H. B. BLOOD WORTH.
For Congress.
To the voters of the Sixth Congressional
District:—l am ft candidate for re-election
to Con gross subject to the Democratic Pri
mary to be held on the 4th of June.
It has been my constant aim and ambition
to serve faithfully the people of the
Sixth District, and I think my record In
Congress, of which I Invite the closest scrut
iny,‘will demonstrate that I have and ine so.
Always at my post of duty, I have ever
defended my party and my people.
If returned to Congress. I pledge the peo
ple of my District the same steadfast ad
herence to tne principle#of Democracy that
has marked my record In the past, and the
same prompt and faithful attention that I
have at all times striven to give to the re
quests and needs of my constituents.
The prospects for a Democratic House in
the next Congress are more favorable than
they have been for many years, and In the
event our Party should succeed In the fall
elections, my long experience In Congress
would enable me to render iny constituents
and the country more efficient service t han
has been possible In a Republican House.
Feeling deeply grateful for your confi
dence in the past, I ask your support In the
coming primary.
Respectfully Yours,
C. L. BARTLETT,
