To the People
of Georgia:
“J hereby announce my ‘candi
dacy for the office of state treasurer,
subject to the democratic white pri
mary of 1910, to be held on a date
to be selected by the state democra
tic executive comftiittee.
‘ln making this announcement I
feel that it is appropriate for me to
say that my service for seven years
in both branches of the Georgia
legislature, during which time many
of present laws relating to banks
and hanking were enacted, and my
service at the same time on the
house committee on hanks and
banking, by which these laws were
considered, has given me a clear
insight into the Georgia la ws con
cerning banking finance.
In addition to the foregoing ex
perience, I have been, for fifteen
years, president of the Elberton
Loan and Savings Bank, in which
capacity I may say have gained
wide practical experience concerning
the operation of these laws; and, as
a result of which I am in a, position
to recommend certain improve
ments in the present laws which
will better safeguard the interests of
the depositors in Georgia’s state
banks
“If elected to this important po
sition, I shall give my every effort
to the -faithful discharge of its
duties, to assist '.ue in which 1 shall
secure the services of trauw.l, expert
and capable assistants.
“I respectfully request the favor
able consideration of the democrat
ic voters of the state.
