doctrine of “divine rights” claimed

God creates all men equal and am op

tear down our civilization, invade our

our country would be Catholicized
and our civilization destroyed. The
average man’s child would have as
little chance as a calf.
4. I stand for public ownership
of public utilities: Railroads, express
companies, telegraph companies and
telephone lines. It would in my opin
ion, be nothing short of a crime
against the people to spend milions
and millions upon the railrways of the
country and then turn them over to
the owners. The government must

cally owned by them.
5. lam opposed to acquiring any
foreign possessions. I believe America
would be better off without the Phil
ippines. I am opposed to entering in
to squabbles about Oriential trade. I
fear our commercial giants and fi
nancial pirates would get us into war
with Japan and China for the sake of
a little trade which would earn for
them a few dollars. America had best
not try to go too far in demanding
special favors in the Orient. The
trade gamblers should not be allowed
to lead us into unnecessay war and
bloodshed to suit their appetites for
profit.
5. I favor the strongest coast de
fense possible. A navy equal or su
perior to any in the world. We should
have learned a lesson from this war,
and while the cost of thorough pre
paredness will be billions, we should
be prepared to defend ourselves
against the world. The country is
worth the money and our homes are
worth the price.
7. There is a tendency growing
to centralize power. It is necessary
to delegate, temporarily, great power
in time of war so as to get the quick
est results, but this power should not
be allowed to exist after the war.
This government is a democracy and
the power should be vested in the
people.
8. Financial, social and creed
power is playing a heavy hand in our
politics. It must be curbed. The
Jews own a great portion oFthe bank
ing business. Nearly all the clothing
business. They control a large per
centage of the advertising business.
The selected politicians play to them
and to the Romanists and the daily
press represents the combinations’
organ. For this reason a fourth gener
ation Georgian can’t be heard.
Knowing my past record and views,
Ia mbeing treated worse today by the
daily press than Bishop Turner or
Booker T. Washington, for their mer
its and deeds were heralded to the
world. The cold knife of silent con
tempt is placed to me.
9. The class through their politic
ians and organs will strive to control
this government after this war as
never before. They are striving to
elect their tools now. They take weak
men without records who will do their
bidding and whom they hope to elect
on a “loyalty” plea.
10. This war debt and the interest
and sinking fund should be paid by
the levying of a graduated income
'rid inheritance tax. Wealth and not
toil should bear this burden.
11. If you are willing to stand by
a man who will live or die by the
above platform I would appreciate
your support. The influences of evil
mentioned above would hush my
voice. They would close the door of
opportunity in my face. The bosses
and allies of big business would cen
tralize your government, milk the gol-;
den calf, rob the treasury of human
rights and deliver us and our poster
ity over, body and soul, into the hands
of the above influences and have fu-‘
ture Americans socially, commercially
and religiously the slaves of a most
despotic despotism.
My country and my future is in
the hands of my fellow countrymen.
Yours truly,
EMMETT R. SHAW.
