State Senator Roscoe Pickett, stale chairman of the regular state commit tee, and Henry S. Jackson, member cf he national republican committee,have announced the electoral ticket put out by the regular republican state organi zation of Georgia. The republican national committee and the republican national convention decided last June that the organization headed by Pickett and Jackson was the regular republican organization of Geogia. This organization, through its state central committee, which met in Atlanta July 4, appointed a cam paign committee and delegated to this committee the power to name the elec toral ticket, and this campaign com mittee, having selected its electors, make the following announcement: Electors from State-at-Large—John M. Barnes, Thompson, Ga.; F. J. Allen, East Pont, Ga. First District— Dr. E. W. Kieffer, Savannah, Ga. Second District—J. A. Monroe, Doe run. Ga. Third DistricG-Charles A. Taunton, Cuthbert, Ga. Fourth District —E. J. Hinton, Wood bury, Ga. Fifth Distict —W. H. Watson, Li fehor.ia, G V . „ Sixth District—Alfed Mack, Ma con, Ga. Seventh District —Thomas R. Glenn, Dalton, Ga. Eight District—H. D. Bush, Coving ton, Ga. Ninth District —T. A. Chastain, Jas per, Ga. Tenth District —George C. Weller, Culverton, Ga. Eleventh District—J. F. Overstreet, Douglas, Ga. Twelth District—J. M. Outlcr, Dub lin, Ga. Statement by Mr. Jackson. Of this announcement Mr. Jackson says: “These electors will go on the repub lican presidential ticket, at the head of which will appear the ames of Hon. Charles Evans Hughes, for president, and Hon. Charles Warren Fairbanks for vice-president. They are each and all high-class business men who stand high and command the respect and confidence of th e community in which they live and are highly and well known throughout the state. They are men who have made a success in busi ness and tand for th c policies of the republican party as a matter of prin ciple and who believe protection against foreign competition is the vital thing for the upbuilding of th e indus tries for the South and of Georgia in particular. “This ticket has the indosement and support of the republican national co lll mittee and the executive and campaign committees.- It is the recognized straight and regular republican tick et, and all w r ho are suppoorting Gov ernor Hughes for the presidency will vote this regular ticket because they wish their votes counted and made of service. Any other ticket put out by individuals under the guise of any or ganized movement and alleged to rep resent the republican party or its mem bers can only be irregular and votes cast for such a ticket will be votes thrown away. “The geat rank and file of republi cans will heartily support the regular republican electoral ticket, and the great majority of the progressives who have followed Colonel Roosevelt back into the republican party will follow the example he has set them by his words and deeds in behalf of and in support of the regular tickets as put out in each state by the egular re publican organizations in those states. “The republican campaign commit tee have opened headquarters in rooms 41 and 43 Inman Building, Atlanta Ga., where there is a full and a competent office force of clerks, stenographers and large supplies of campaign litera ture, text-books campaign buttons and lithographs of the candidates for president and vice president. Mem bers of the campaign committee and State Chairman Pickett and National Committeeman Jackson are on hand daily to welcome all callers and give them the latest campaign dope and furnish them with literature and but tons, etc. * * - “A cordial invitation is extended to one and all who intend to support and vote for Governor Hughes to call at the headquarters, and those who live out of the city who cannot find it con venient to call in person are asked to send in their names by mail for litera ture and other campaign matter.” adv.
