The following is the platform on which I offer my candidacy to the people of Toombs county for Repres entative : 1. —To substitute a State income tax in lieu of the present system of ad valorem ,tax, which taxes the person drawing large incomes, and not bleed the farmer to cea,th who is doing all in his power to try to survive these depressive and critical times. 2. —A reduction of the great expense of the State Government by eliminat ing all state offices that are unneces sary; and which were created to give some good friend a splendid income for doing nothing. 3. —A marketing system which will place in every county of the State, a market where the farmer can dispose of any crop that he may produce; and receive for it, not what a few individ uals say “I’ll give you for it”, but the national quoted price. This would have saved the Water Melon Grower much time and expense, in addition, would have assured' him profits on hit melons. 4. —A bill which Will make any per son eligible to vote by paying Poll Tax. A large number of the most in fluential Citizens of the County are not able to pay the big tax assessed on their property due to the great de pression, and therefore will be dis franchise. It Is unfair, unjust, and undemocratic that the privilege of participation in the government of the County and State, in which they have live so long, and the progress of which they have labored for years, be refused them. 5. —A bill providing for free text books in every school. Practically every State In the Union have ad'pot ed this excellent plan; and since our State charges a larger rate of taxes than any of the 48 States, we should be able to afford it.—Adv.

Unless the inflammation can be reduced, your hearing may be de stroyed forever. HALL'S CATARRH MEDICINE will ! do what we claim for it—rid your system of Catarrh or Deafness caused by Catarrh.
