Forsyth, Ga., Feb. 1, 1910. 1 1 tae People of the Sixth Congression al District: I l am a candidate for Congress sub ■e--t to Democratic nomination. ■ la tins announcement 1 will not un dertake to incorporate my entire plat- H rill , but cannot refrain from saying a- a member of Congress I would ■renuously oppbse all extravagant ex- B n ,iiture of the peoples money and all Bmeeessary and burdensome taxation, Hid every effort made to encroach up- “states rights” and would stand un- Jinchingly and unfalteringly against laws in conflict with the principle •Fipial rights for all and special privi leges to none. ” l believe that this should be in reali tv as it is in theory a government of the people, by the people and FOR the people.

To the Voters of the Sixth Congress ional District: I; have a laudable ambition to repre sent his district in the.62nd Congress, therefore I submit to you this formal announcement of my candidacy, sub ject to the Democratic primary and I earnestly solicit your vote and support. I shall endeavor to canvass each county and meet as many of you per sonally as it is possible for me to do be tween this and the date the primary is held.

FOR CONGRESS. PLvvn a candidate for oilice of Representative in ('<m- IKss from the Sixth District in the pri mary election* Which, Under the law, will he held next August. I believe that my record as a Repre sentative, of which i invite the closest scrutiny, justifies me in saying that I have discharged every duty and obli gation to the people who have honored me with that high-and responsible of ! (ice. During the entire period of my service in the House, I have been-faced by a Republican majority, strongly ad verse in sentiment and policy to the jrbest interests of the people of my sec but iny record here will demon strate that in every word I have spoken and in every vote I have cast, I have lia<y an eye single to the honor and we'/fa re of the people 1 represent. Whether my duty as a Representative has called me to resist the insidious at tempts that are being constantly made to undermine the sovereign dignity of the States, tooppose the encroachments of organized monopoly upon the rights and substance of the people, or to de fend the institutions and glorious tradi tions of our own section, 1 have re sponded to that call with all the force hikl vigor of my being. As the Repre sentative of a free pebpie, I have de nounced tyranny in whatever form it has appeared, and actively parlicipa , ted in the movement to wrest the con- the lfouse from the arrogant despotism that has been erected in the people’s forum by the Speaker and his f Committee on Rules. -3*l y record in tkr> and all other matters will most conclusively show that I have never on any occasion faltered or hesitated in the course of duty dictated by perfect loyalty to my constituents and party. Believing that my long experience w iß enable me to serve more efficient ly the people of the District in the next House, which, from all indica yjon.s, will he Democratic, and with "jirateful appreciation of their support w>d confidence in the past, 1 ask a je- B>mi nation at the hands of my con stituency. C. L. BARTLETT. !•'< >R REPRESENTATIVE. I hereby announce myself as a can didate for re-elec:ion for representative ! county, subject to the Dem ocratic primary.
