Samuel Taylor stole a bucket of coal
In Atlantic City the other day, because
till wife was sick and cold and he
hadn't a nickel to buy the needed fuel.
The Pennsylvania Railroad owner of
the coal prosecuted him. There wgt

victed and sent to jail for five days.
It Is a heinous sin to steal, wherefore
Taylor’s sick wife had to be deprived
of hla care for five days to satisfy the
demands of justice.

BRANTLEY URGES
DEMOCRATS TO VOTE
•HOWS THE NECE88ITY FOR ALL
TO TURN OUT.
Brunswick, Ga., Oct. 20, 1908.
Editors Herald:
I write to Impress upon the Demo
crats the Importance of getting out a
full Democratic vote at the election
on November 3rd next, which Is now
only one week off.
I can not too strongly state the sit
uation.
Under our Georgia law the suc
cessful candidates for Electors roust
receive a majority of all the votes
that are cast. In our recent state
election a “plurality of votes” only
was necessary.
Should the Democratic Electors fall
to receive a majority of all the votes
cast, the Legislature would have to
be convened In extraordinary session
to select the Electors. This would be
enormously expensive to the State,
and, In addition to this expense, some
question has been suggested as to
the legality of such extra session for
this purpose. Whether or not there
la anything in this suggestion, we can
avoid Its even being raised by giving
our ticket a majority of the votes or
.U t! " State election thero
!: ’,090 votes polled. The Re
publics! l.tivo constantly voted here
tofore from 30,000 to 33,000 votes in
T‘j evidential election?. The/
claiming 33,000 votes In Pre.idectlal
elections. They are claiming 50,000
votes this year, and are well organiz
ed.
Mr. Watson has confined his presi
dential campaign to the State of Geor
gia. and his followers claim that hp
will poll 50,000 votes. We have m
way of estimating the number of votes
that he will receive but we must as-
sumo that the number wll be consldet*
able;
The Independent Party will no
doubt get some votes. .
You can readily see from this sta-
tment that, unless the Democrats
turn out better in the November elec
tion than they did in the State oleo
ticn this month, THE DEMOCRATIC
ELECTORS WILL NOT RECEIVE A
MAJORITY OF THE VOTES CAST.
The seriousness of the situation Is
mealed by this statement of tho facts
There Is, of course not the slightest
danger If the DEMOCRATS
THE POLLS. Thore are enough Dem
ocrat* In the State to give our elect-
ticket in overwhelming majority.

renr elf in having THB FULL DEMO
CRATIC VOTE POLLED IN YOUR
COUNTY.
Georgia and the South hare suffered
too much from Republican rule to
torso an opportunity to protest against
P„ and, Ij possible, overthrow It. Tho
only Issue In the campaign Is, whether
or not the Republican shall be con
tinued In power. The country Is ripe
for a change, and the prospects for
Democratic sucoss are brighter than
they have been in many yean.
Georgia can not afford to lag behind
in the protest against extravagance,
misrule and Injustice that Is now
sweeping the country. — •
