OF WARE COUNTY.
As chairman of the Democratic ex
ecutive committee of Ware county 1
have never felt that there was any
necessity after the primary, for further
appeal to the loyalty and patriotism
of the white voter* of the cuonty. In
fact I havo felt that to doubt me fealty
of the rock ribbed Democracy of Ware
would be an insult to their manhood,
their intelligence and their devotion
to principle. It is true that In the
gubernatorial campaign we'had a heat
ed contest but each man voted for the
candidate of his choice. When he
cast that vote ho pledged himself to
support the candi lates who should re
ceive the greatest number of votes
from the governor’s office down to
county coroner. The rumor that a
number of white men who voted In tae
late primary w ill vote for an independ
ent candidate In (he October election,
haw no weight with me. I da not be

In my own people to barber for an in
