“OPENED THROUGH MISTAKE”
Uncle Sam Will No Longer Recog
nize the Excuse for Opening
Other People’s Mail.
Persons who have been in the habit
of opening all letters placed in their
boxes without looking to see to whom
they are addressed will do well to stop
it—and to stop it at once—or they may
be subjected to a heavy tine or im
prisonment.
The postoffice department at Wash
ington recognizes the fact that post
masters are human and are liabie to
error in distributing mail, and has
ruled that all mail must be looked
over before leaving the office, and
that any letter put in an individual or
firm’s box by mistake must be return
ed before leaving the postoffice under
a penalty of $2OO for failure to do so.

elections will result in a democratic
majority in the next congress.

HUKE SMITH ON DISFRANCHISEMENT
I favor and, if elected, will urge with all my power the
elimination of the negro from politics as the best possible svlution
of the race problem, for both whites and blacks.
Disfranchisement can be accomplished by legal and constitu
tional methods, just as has been adopted in North Carolina,
South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Virginia,
without disfranchising a single white man.
If elected I would oppose, with all my power, the enactment
of any legislation that would have the effect of disfranchising a
single white voter in Qeorgia. HOKE SMITH,
CAUGHT ON THE CURBSTONE. l
