Liberty County Voters Elect A Sheriff
After one of the most heated campaigns for a county
office, the voters of Liberty County poured out to the polls
and voted by a huge majority to elect Bobby Sikes as Sheriff
to succeed his father, the late Paul Sikes.
It was nothing but fair and right. The voters of Liberty
County are to be congratulated on their decision. They
elected one of their cleanest and best qualified young men
to the place. We look forward to this election eliminating
some of the friction and dissension that has been the cause
of much hard feelings in our neighboring county.
There were many that would have liked to have voted
for both Bobby and Joe Smith, but that was not possible,
and most of them voted for Sikes.
It was of news that more colored people voted in this
election that whites, about 75 of them. eYt, there are those
extremists in the north that will tell you that the colored
people are denied the right to vote in the South. Which we
know to be untrue. In our county of Bryan more than a
thousand colored i>eople are on the voters list and they
vote without interference or abuse from anyone.
The coastal counties of Georgia have many colored peo
ple, most of them own their little home, and many of them
engage in business, and enjoy life just as the white people
do, and the best friends that colored people of Coastal
Georgia have are their white friends and neighbors.
Yes, it is a pity that some of the ‘rabble dousers” couldn’t
come down here and see just how we people handle our
affairs with the races in this section. The colored people are
happy and the white people are happy, and will continue
that way unless some sorry people “from off” come in and get
to meddling with affairs which they should leave alone.
