ANNOUNCEMENTS. FOR CONGRESS Forsyth, Ga, Feb. 1910. lo the leopJe of the Sixth Cos al District: . Iam T a for Confess sul) - J ect to Democratic nomination. In this announcement I will'not un dertake to incorporate mv entire pi..t iorm, but cannot refrain from savin* Unit as a member of Congress 1 would strenuously oppose all extravagant ex penditure of the peoples money and all unnecessary and burdensome taxation and every effort made to encroach up on “states rights” and would stand un flinchingly and unfalteringly against all laws in conflict with the principle “Equal rights for all and special privi leges to none.” I believe that this should be in reali ty as it is iii theory a government of the people, by the people and FOR the people. As your representative I would de vote to the duties of my office mv time, my energy and whatever of talent I have and requests from any citizen of the District however humble he might be, would receive prompt and careful ■attention. , If elected I will enter upon the dis charge oi my duties without pledge or promise to any man or set of men but absolutely free and independent to do iny full duty as God gives me the light to see it. Very respectfully, O. H. B. BLOOD WORTH. FOR CONGRESS. To the Voters of the Sixth Congress ional District: I have a laudable ambition to repre sent this 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. And then, should you vote for me and elect me, I promise to conse crate my very best efforts and what ever talents and ability I possess to your service. Respectful I v vours, J. .1. FLY NT. FOR CONGRESS. 1 am a candidate for renomination to the office, of Representative in Con gress from the Sixth District in thp pri mary election, which, under the law, will be 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 fice. During the entire period of my service in the House, 1 have been faced by a Republican majority, st rongly ad verse in sentiment and policy to the best interests of the people of my sec tion, but my record here will demon strate that in every word I have spoken and in every vote I have cast, I have had an eye single to the honor and welfare of the people I 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, to oppose the encroacn meats 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, I have re sponded to that call with all the lorce and vigor of my being. As the Repre sentative of a free people, I lane de nounced tyranny in whatever mm i has appeared, and actively Participa ted in the movement to wrest the con trol of the House from the arrogant despotism that has been erected in he people's forum by the Speaker and 1 Committee on Rules. -My reeo and this and all other matters v.il. conclusively show that I have never on any occasion faltered or hesitated in the course of duly dictated U- 1"‘ ; 1 loyally to my constituents and part}. SvinsllM. my long l*"* will enable me to serve mm. lv the people of the District m the next House, which, from all mdKa li!ms will lie Democratic, and mth grateful appreciation o! their '^lTrl and confidence in the nomination at the hands of my stituency. j BARTLETT. for representative.
