Those who know me will not question the absolute falsity o/ these charges. I have had no more opportunity to change the registration books than has hundreds of other cltinens of Ware couuty. These charges are made against me at a time when it is almost impossible to refute them before the election. • The public Hliouid know that tho charges made by such political trick sters are us false as they are. Some cf the names ullcgcd to nave been changed are among my warmest supporters. Assuring the public that if I am reelected I will perform the duties Incident to the Sheriff's office as con scientiously as I hav* in the past, I respectfully solicit your support. I). A. WOODARD. WOODARD A BRAVE AND CAPABLE OFFICER Communicated. , Kditors Herald; * *, Permit me to iimikc known u few of niy observations relative to the elec tion of a sheriff of Ware county. Mr. Woodard, the proa, at encum bent. Is a enudidato for re-election. This being tils first term In office hi vhould by all rule* 1 of fnirnesa be elect ed to a second term. He has done jiothlng for whlca he should be turn- •«I down und thus humiliated. It hav ing been an unprecedented rulo to give a man a second term without op- -fjoxltlon, unless he hsvl done some thing for which he should bo punish- «*<L miti I deprlcate tjo fact that he has .opposition for this second term. Mr. Woodard Is u bravo and good officer- a man who Is well balanced nud cool under nil circumstances—a man who in the event of a riot would on arcouut of bis even temperament be commanding and at all times In the possession of all of his faculties. Now in mil candor can we say this In reapect to Ms opponents. I think noL Mr. Youmans Is a good man 1*1 from what I esn learn is quick tempered, easily etcited and acts up on the Impulse, and with such a dis position could do Incalculable harm under stress of circumstances calling for deliberation and due considerate!). Mr. Pittman Is a $oo4 man but a better farmer than he would make u sheriff. His life having been spent mostly In the country*, he is not awake to the signs of the times, and too much time would be required wliii him to gain a working knowledge of foe office. Now do we not owe It to ourselves to see that the best man we have is elected to this office for the reason that at some time during the encurn- brumey of this office our property and tven our lives and as well the lives et those who are nearest and dearest to us may be in the hands of this of- tetr. I understand a cnargo has been made that certain irregularities in connection with'the registration were attrlbu’ablt to him. Such a charge is u base slander and the circulation of same is done for i*olItlcal purposes and at a time when It was t lought he ould not have huj tlmo to refute It. 'I he people should speuk out 1u op- os!tIon to such political trtcicsters, :h It Is a. well known fact that any ii.I every olio had access to this bool: ml »uch charges as were made could uvo been dene by any one who would have ho desired, and any one witn any knowledge of affairs would know that Lie change of n few names could not c.’.cngo tlie result-of an election, if they were all opposed to any candidate, but k us a matter of fact many of those changed were ardent supporters of Mr. Woodard..and this charge was made in Lie hope of doing him some harm, hut Mr. Woodard ill known for such false an slanderous charges to effect him though unanswered.

TO THE V0TER8 OF WAYCR088 AND WARE COUNTV • We call upon every one of our re spective adherents to refrain from the use of violent and intemperate words, on election day. Let every one keep m a good huthor and do nothing to hurt his neighbors feelings; Vote'your con victions and do nothing you will re gret after it is ail over. C. M. SWEAT. Chairman Jos. M. Brown. Ware County Club. J- L. WALKER. President. Hoke Smith Ware coun ty Club. COMPLETE RETURN8 FROM Visits roads have lying idle a shrinking to bankruptcy. Why this great change? The an swer is that confidence in values, con fidence in the protection of property, confidence Ii^ the safety and security of investments has been badly shaken, and the reason Is too much demagog- ism and too much unwise legislation ml threats of legislation. The West was developed by outride capital and the growth of development ol the South can't go on without outside cupitul. Lriok ut the Pacific slope! Seattle in 1900 had 80,000 population; now It hns 225,000. Los Angeles in 1000 had 50,000 population; ‘today it has 280,000. The South Atlantic Statea have greater natural advantag es than the Pacific slope and are near er to the densely settled |»ortion of the Union. Why docs the South lag be hind? The reason is the same—too much unwise legislation. Two years ago the South was developing so fast that it outgrow Its supply of labor; U outgrew Its supply of capital, and It ipply of transportation facilities. Instead of recognizing that what difficulties we Men experienced were .solely due Co our phcnomlually ra;>i^ growth and would adjust them selves, along came a gang of agitators like Hoke inlth of Georgia, Comer of Alabama and tilenn of North Carolina and howlej against corporations, and especially foreign corporations. We, dill not say that Hold? Smith vnused Panic, but we do say that he and his policies are largely responsible fer the* destruction of confidence which is causing t In trade aud business in Georgia today. And that is one reason why wo are voting for Brown. Wo want to put u stop to this agita tor and let business and trade have a chance to get on their feet again. Due of the pet Hoke Smith |>olicles hostility to foreign corporations. They must not be allowed in Georgia In his speeches and In r nls campaign pamphlet, pages 9 and 10, he soy If we forbid the operation of rail roads in Georgia by foreign corpora tions. or' non resident citizens, they will be forced to sell or lease them to corporations organized In Georgia. We should accept no half way mens- mizatlorr of local begin.** There you are in his own words, What du you think of that? Is that policy likely to bring any fre^h for eign capital into Georgia? Will non- resident citizens who are satisfied »o >:ve ar.d work under the constitution and laws of the United States put r.:r.nc-y into new or c!J railroads In Georgia if they are not going to be al lowed to operate their properties them selves? if they are to be forced to /ell out their railroads can they feel safe that they won't be forced to soil j other properties also? This policy of j Hoke Smith's is a direct threat to uii | foreign Investors ip our state, and j wacro are we to raise locally the men- j ey to buy the properties which this pol- j icy aims to throw on the market? Du :'ae people of Georgia and the people } of Savannah wish to see the Illinois Central cr Mr. llarrlman prevented from owning and operating the Central of Georgia and making Savannah the Atlantic outlet for a preat transcon tinental line? Yet this is cne of Me things Mr. Smith stands pledgej to do, and this is one good reason why we are opposed, to him and will vote for Joe Brown. Another of Hoke Smith’s policies is hostilities to railroads. We are ail agreed that railroads should be reg- •.Bated by the state. But we want them to live and prosper. If Me South had the same proportionate railroad tileage as Massachusetts we would have today 225,000 miles of road In stead of only 65,000. What we want and need is more railroads, better equipped railroads and better service. can’t get that unless tlie ones we have allowed to prosper. Mr. Smith’s policies are killing the goose that lays the golden egg. We knew that rail- ds aro the bigsest purchasers of lumber, Iron and many lines of sup plies. When the railroads can’t affcr«f buy them our mills and factories must shut down or curtail production and stagnation creeps over every line of trade and business. That is what has happened aud Is happening today and worse is yet to come If Hoke Smith and his policies are to bo con tinued. One of i:i«5 pledges Is to make > dullness a reduction if n year in that exists freight rates. That h more than tho total net earnings cl all tho railroads In Georgia. But tl:.;t ;s net all. An other of his policies li to put a tax of 1 per cen^ cn Me gross earnings of all railroads, whether they are making money or not, in addition to the four seperate kinds of taxes already Im posed upou them. If we send him back to carry out his pledges, as he asks us to do, the carrying out of these poli cies will bankrupt every railroad in Georgia. Do we want that? Not much And..that is another reason why we re going to vote for Joe Brown. Idle Sawmill. Savannah, Ga., June 2. DEPARTURES FOR THE NORTH.
