MR. JpL. HARALSON
maCUSSEH POLITICS
Donalsonville, Ga.
February 12, 1942 1
] Seminole County since its creation, I
not so many years ago has always
gone on record in its every act as a
stable county. The people are thinking
people, their good judgment from a j
I political standpoint has been herald- <
ed throughout the United States. The!
largest headline appearing in any
newspaper was the Dallas News. Dal
las, Texas a few years ago ftUPPUneing
to the public that Seminole County,
Georgia situated away down in the
southwest corner of the State was the
first county in Georgia proclaiming
its undying suport of Franklin D.
Roosevelt and this was over the pro
i test of Eugene Talmadge who was 1
, then governor of Georgia. We knew
then that he was not an able man
! but a demagogue and now to the sor
row of the State we have him gov-i'j
'ernor again. IV’e voted for him think--
ing that just anything for governor
would be better than former Gover- ’
nor Rivers.
We failed, we have destroyed our I
prestige and have stepped down in 1
the gutter with a criminal element. ’
We, as well as the whole State, must
go out and proclaim our position in
the political world. It will take years'
to erase the stain of political corrup
tion we have placed upon the State.
Governor Talmadge has committed'
many acts unbecoming of a governor'
a few of which I will mention as un-,
questionable facts and proof of which
I now have in my possession. Gover-;
nor Talmadge appointed a member of'
the lottery’ criminal gang to the re-,
sponsible position of head of the state
farm market. Tom Linder, Commis-'
siopef of Agrjeußure balked too much,,
too rotten, he w’ould not stand for it
and the Governor reneged. This
sounds like a bid on Talmadges part
for political support of the under
world.
I charge one or more of the board;
of regients with critizing the present;
national Democratic administration
while in session. I charge one mem-;
ber of the board of regents with en-;
tertaining two prominent negros at
his home dining them in his own din
jpg room using his silverware, this
for business reasons. How about fer
reting this member out Governor, and
§eud hjm along- down the road with
Earl Cocking.
I charge Governor Talmadge with
1 being’ hog tied by two of the largest
i corporations Georgia has ever known,'
| the same two coropration which ap
proached another candidate who ran'
for Governor and were turned down.,
This political tie-up has strengthened
i Governor Talmadge’s aid of Hitler by
j turning down the personal request cl-
I President Roosevelt to atsjst jn help- ■
ing put an oi| pipe UhQ thtough Geor
gia as q stop toward saving our coun- i
try from the ravages of war.
Governor Talmadge appointed one
member of the board of regents of}
this county who supported Weddell
Wilkie for the presidency. Was this
fair to the loyal Democrats of Geor
gia. Governor Talmadge has on the
I governors staff a man from this fG',in,
ty who voted for and suppQ?to4 Wd
-1 kie for the presyftpuy. What du you i
'Georgians «>f this? One of the!
appointees (largo salary}
'and expenses) is a Republican from'
Whitfield county who made a valiant i
- fight for him in northwest Georgia.'
How about you people of Dalton and
; Whitfield Counties, does this set well
with you ?
Governor Talmadge has on the paw
ning board of Georgia §
national from Georgia.
Think of u Republican planning the
affairs of the democratic state.
A branch of the pardon racket is
; now well established in Seminole
County and is functioning according
to plans.
During a recent session of the Ha'l
; County Superior Court the Governor
and his henchman Zac£ Cravey*sent a
prominent gentleman of Atlanta to
Gainesville to request the Judge to
pal pies a bill of indictment against an
appointee. When the case called this I
elegant gentleman from Atlanta made I
his request. The Judge became indig-'
nant. The Solicitor General forfeited'
the bond and.the Judge the!
j Sheriff to dq\ib|U toe bond of the ap
: pomtee for his appearance at the
next term of' court. Immediately four
> hundred eight prominent citizens of |
! Hall County pledged themselves, -as
‘ political enemies of the Governor. Ask
the Court authorities at Gainesville a
bout thisl
The djschqrgv of W. H. Maine, state !
trooper, at this place for political rea-j
son has not added anything to his
prestige. Mr. Maine apprehended a.
bunch of drunks driving on the puh
lie road. This did not meet the jippro
val of a henchman and he asked the-
Governor to discharge him. A nuns
ber of prominent county officials call
j ed on the Governor in the interest of
.justice and asked for his retention as
, a trooper but to no avail.
! Well do we remember the Gover
; tiers words in his opening campaign
■; speech at Albany, Georgia when h.«t
screamed out the the worthy p®pr
I (that if only one dollar was
ted for old age pensions it would be.
divided equally.) The cheering voices
jof the old people of toe State echoed
and re-echoed from hill to hill “We
will get a fair deal now." What has
happened? Many of the real needy
are left out.
How unpatroitic it was in Gov>r.
nor Talmadge to appeal to Honorable
Carl Vinson, chairman of the. Nava!
-affairs to have his son Herman ap
pointed an ensign in the Navy. I can
jsee Herman in his beautiful white
i suit, cap to match w’ch the gold en
- signa oi his office. The other side.
• The city and farm boys step out with
out a murmur, drill in the mud, ice
and. snow until their feet are blister
. c ‘d. This is patriotism pure and un
sullend. In this connection our mind’s:
eye drifts tq the first world war, we
i think of-the san of Teddy Rooseveh
who went over seas with his father’s
blessing upon his head to die in the
defense of his country. He died. To
day a littla white cross marks his
grave in inlander’s Field where the
pappieswaive over his grave. What a
contrast.
I charge Governor Talmadge with
being a premediated slacker. I charge
Governor Talmadge with being one
human being whom I believe would de
stroy the tranquilly and peace of rac
es and place a race of people in bond
■ age if it took that to promote his
J selfish political interest. “Black Fri
!day” is stalking his political career.
He reminds me of a cat in a strange
back yard, prowling. There is a cold
quiet political uprising in Georgia.'
which spells doom for him.
I have on deposit, I|> the Coriimereia!
. State Bank, of Donalsonville $250.00
dollars which 1 will pay to anyone
proving to my satisfaction that any
one or more of the above charges are
untrue.
