Randolph Anderson of Savannah is the only candidate in the race for governor who has offered the voters of the state a substantially constructive and progressive platform. His committee submits to the voters substantial reasons why he should be elected, rather than reasons why others should not be. Long legislative service, including the presidency of the state senate the past two sessions, has not only familiarized him with state conditions, but has brought him into inti mate touch with public needs in all their phases. He has, accordingly, outlined a program which must appeal strong ly to the voter who has Georgia’s progress and advancement at heart. Extension of the powers of the railroad commission so as to protect the people in their dealings with all corpora tions, and the elimination of a lot of Georgia’s unnecessary politics, are among the features which appeal strongly to tiie progressive voter. Mr. Anderson has not had the opportunity of visiting all the counties of the state, and as he is detained in Atlanta by his duties as president of the senate, his campaign com mittee takes this method of presenting briefly his plat form principles to the voters of the state. In setting forth the principles for which he stands, and the enactment of which he will urge, Mr. Anderson says: —The functions of the railroad commission should be en larged and it should be made a state corporation commis sion. —Georgia needs a careful and economical administration of her finances, held within the limits of her income. —The Western and Atlantic Railroad should be leased so as to bring the maximum return to the state, and to pro tect the counties and towns upon the line in the matter of taxes. —Georgia should have a state highway commission to co operate with the counties in the improvement of public roads. —Better and stronger laws should be enacted for the ad vancement of Georgia’s educational system and the pro tection of her teachers. —He does not favor the leasing of the Western and At lantic Railroad by the Seaboard, because it would invite paralleling by the L. aud N. and thus endanger the state’s property. —Georgia needs an adequate system for the collection and recording of her vital statistics. —The. drainage cf Georgia’s overflow and swamp lands is an important and much needed state development. —A safe system of rural credits should be established for the advancement of agriculture, to which an effect he system of land title registration should be provided as a preliminary. —The equal and impartial enforcement of all the laws is the duty of every public office i. The Georgia legislature should meet oi;?y once every two years. —jj he governor should be elected only onro every four years and permitted to serve only one term. —The terms of office of all state: 00-e and all comity offi cers should be made four years, thus reducing our poli tics one-half. —There has been no governor from South Georgia since 1823.
