HON. CHAS. R. CRISP’S ELECTION
ASSURED BY A LARGE MA;ORITY
Hon. Charles R. Crisp, withoat a
doubt, will be nominated to sueceed
himself as Congressman from this
district by a very large majority. He
will certainly carry twelve of the fif
tren eoanties with a probability of
carrying cvery county in the district,
witl. the possible exception of one.
and his mzjority in seven of the coun
ties will be very large and overwhelm
tivg.
Mr. Hudsen and his friend have fail
ed utlerly to becloud the issues 00l
the campaign by singing the “Swan
Song and howling “Mud Slinging,”
when they, themselves, injected mud
in the clean waters in an effort to
detract attention from Mr. Hudson's
public record, and we submit that the
public record of every public official
belongs to the public and should be
bared to the public by men in office
themselves, and most certainly should
not be withheld from the public.
Mr. Crisp has shown no disposition
whatever, to touch upon Mr. Hud
son's private life or reflect upon him
in the least personally. It is only
fair to the people that the ofiicial acts
of every candidate for office should
be discussed, and nothing more has
Mr. Crisp discussed about Mr. Hud 1
son than his official acts and we can
not understand why Mr. Hudsor
should object to this if he has been
fair to the people lLe represented. Gu
the other hand if that record had bee
what it should be, Mr. Hudson would
have invited a close investigation o!
same. About the first evidence thai
was brought to our attention, thaf
irrevelent things were being injectec
in this campaign was long before Mr
Crisp left Washington, when Mr. Hud
son was making a personal canvass
making slight remraks of Mr. Crisp’
honored and beloved father who ha:
passed away many years ago. Hi:
efforts to belittle Mr. Crisp, stating
that he had dome nothing but sen
“garden seed,” his efforts to try to dis
rupt friends and neighbors wher
post office appointments had bee:
made by Mr. Crisp willing to do thi
in an effort to gain thereby. but th:
first real mud came in this campaig:
when Mr. Hudson, under his signe
ture, sent out a sixteen page pamphle
_purporting to be an address by him
‘bui this address was delivered throug!
Ihe mails and not from the stump
and it was a flimsy ecert to muddy the
waters instead of an answer or expls
nation of his acts as public officia
which it, evidently, was supposed t
do. Next came John T. Royal o
Schley county, an ex-represeniatives,
and from Mr. Hudson's home town
with about three columns trying to de
fend Mr., Hudson's record as Commis
cioner of Agriculture, but in realty a
vicious attack on Mr. Crisp, striking
<0 low beneath the belt as to take Mr.
Crisp to task for being sick when it
was necessary to go West on account
of his health which had become im
paired in the discharge of his duties
n Washington climate ably represent
ng his people. :
Now we take what was charged and
published against Mr. Hudson at the
ime when the investigation of his
sonduct was fresh. and so far as we
have seen, was not® denied by DMr.
Hudson. “When the Ault investiga
tion was proposed, all the powers of
Mr. Hudson and his friends was ex
erted to prevent the investigation.
It is not «isputed that the De
partment had become the political ma
citine of rotten politicians, that hie ap
pointed inspectors who were not ex
vected to work, that many of the in
sjpectors made up reporis and tool
10 Samples, that Hudson made ne
offort to protect the farmers: that the
'wllule department was an expensive
sham operated for the palce hunters
and the ‘‘rule or ruin” political boss
i'or months and months we waitec
for this report, and not until he wa:
out under oath and cross examined
anld any of the scandal be exposed
etc.
Now, if our recollection serves u:
ight, Mr. Hudson asked for this de
ay. either because he fell sick o’
‘osired to shape up his oflice for the
nvestigation, or both, and this it
vhen the monihs of waiting cajue in
Next appears in the Cordelé Sen
nel ap article of abuse of “WE']
‘LAY, Now if we were to give ¢
-eason for this we would say, that the
‘ordele Sentine! belongs to, or is con
roled by one Mr. Bivins; that said
dr. Bivins was an applicant for the
ostoffice at Cordele and was not ap
wointed. - The rest, we leave to the
ntelligent voters of this district. He
3ivins. also takes a shot at Mr. Crisy
ecause he fell ill. Mr. Hudson has
dvertised extensively throughout the
listrict these articles of Roral anc
Jivins and has therefore put his
tamp of approval thereon.
Mr. Hudson in addressing the vo
ers of this city also took Mr. Crisg
o task because of the sickness of Mr
'risp. So we feund Hudson, Roya
.nd Bivins criticising a man becausc
ae got sick. A sickness contractec
lin the discharge of duty. What kind
lo‘{ mud is this?
i Mr. Hudson at Richland made at at
| tack on a good citizen of that town—
l;mly a few hours later Mr. Hudson
| spoke at Lumpkin and his opening
| remarks were, “A retraction of it he
! said to this gentleman at Richland and
\uu apology for having said what he
| did, as he found cut it wasn’'t true and
[ he did not wish to do the gentleman
i Boy Sy
iunv injustice.
{ The next day at Cordele Mr. Hug,
‘,Hon. after retracting and apologising
{or the statements that he said he had
found out were untrue, reiterated the
same charges against the same gen
tieman which said charges the podw
ple of this county knew were not true
wnd reputable citiens of Richiand had
sworn were not true.
Qliding over the charges against
his public record, not even attempting
to answer or explain any of his <or
poration votes, he csneiuded by read
ing a letter written by Judge Crisp
to him offering to support him for
Covernor, which was no place in the
Congressional race because it was
written before the Ault Committe
lad signed their repert and before
Mr. Crisp had occasion ‘to run down
vir. Hudson's recerd. He gave no rea
ion why our peopie shouid send him
o congress and Stewart county will
o found in the Crisp column electie:
tay by four hundreid majority along
v:th most of the other counties.
Mr. Hudson was cordially invited
)y Mr. Crisp in a gentlemanly was
o meei him on the stump face to face
vith the Deople. Mr. Hudsoy deciin
d, .as ne had a right to do, but in
laclining he should have kept the
[ cud out of his reply and suppressec
| he wail of defeat, but li€re was hi»
;\ppornznity to refute any charge
rought against him yet he signally
| cefused to do so.

sensation price of $550, the managenent stated frankiy that the mame “FOUR NINETY" rcally meant sere-"
thineg and tha: whenever the company’s manufacturing facilities and produecticn justified it, the peice on this
car. electrically equipped, should be $490. : .
Since the above date, the Chevrolet has completed the best motor piant i thiS country; has built and equip- ; :
ped an up-to-theminute axle plant; has required a complete transmigsgon Tlan€eand has in operaticn seven 54
