SI.OO PER YEAR
Mr. Redwine? arrived at Clyde a
bout four o’clock and was given
an opportunity to address the
voters, he was introduced by Col.
C. L. Purvis and immediately
began a talk to the people. Char
he Redwine is a good man, and
he is a forceful speaker and there
is no question but that his visit
to Bryan made him some friends.
Politics is beginning to get
warm now that we have had two
of the candidates for Governor
visit our county and we predict
that from now on they will be a
humming.

WHY WE ARE SUPPORTING
THE FOUR R’S THIS YEAR
Inasmuch as we have stated that we are one hundred
percent behind the candidacy of the four “R’s”. rhat is
Roosevelt, Russell, Rivers and Roberts, It may be that we
should state our reasons for favoring these gentlemen over
the others.
First of all, we do not see why any Georgia cracker
should have to explain why he favored the candidacy of
Franklin Delano Roosevelt to succeed himself as President
of the United States. We believe him to be the greateet
President that we have ever had, and believe that he has
attempted to do more for the “underdog” than any other
President ever has.
It is true that everything that he has ordered done, has
not met with our approval, but the fact remains that when
he went into the White House he found the United States
facing the gravest problems that ever confronted our coun
try, and he had to do something and do it quick, he did not
have time to consider whether this or that was constitut
ional or not, it had to be done and find out about that later.
Our state and our own county of Bryan is a thousand
times better off today than they were when Rooeeveft went
into office.
That is reason enough.
Next comes our reason for supporting Senator Russell.
There are plenty of reasons, he has the ability and has been
quietly, but everlastingly on the job. and has produced re
sults for his state that speaks louder than all the hullabaloo
in the world could possibly do. But if we had no other rea
son except the tact that he is a friend of the national ad
mieistration and will work with and co-operate with that
great patriot, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, while on the other
hand, his opponent, Governor Talmadge would do just the
contrary and would do in the future like he has in tb e past,
line up with the Republicans, the Liberty Leaguers etc., and
fight the Roosevelt administration at every turn, that alone
would be enough to make us tear our shirt for‘‘Little Dick.”
Then we are supporting E. D Rivers for Governor be
cause we realize that he is the only man that stands a show
to beat Governor Talmadges candidate. ‘ Me To” Charlie
Redwine. We believe that should Redwine be elected as
Governor, that it would be another Louisana situation,
where Senator Long controlled Governor 0. K. Alien of
Louisana and it proved so disastrous to that state.
Ed Rivers is a good man, and will make Georgia one
of the best Governors that we have ever had, and when he
gets in the Governors office our state will be ruled by law
and not by bayonets and the national guard under Lindley
Camp.
He favors Old Age Pensions and if elected will do all in
his power to see that our old people, both white and colored
get their just rights under this cause. He has long been
an advocate of free school books and now that we are about
to get them for part of our school children he is due much
credit for the work that he has done for this cause.
. We would like to support Wash Larsen for Governor, he
lived in this county for many years, taught school here and
looks upon Bryan county as being his home county, but we

Georgias Next Governor, E, D. Rivers
honestly believe that, he does not stand a show to be elect
ed.and we had rather help beat Redwine than cast a com
plimentary vote for Wash Larsen.
In supporting Columbus Roberts for Commissioner of.
Agriculture, we do so believing that he is as far ahead of
Tom Linder in ability and fair dealing to the farmers o'
Georgia as daylight is ahead of dark.
Columbus Roberts will give the little one h-rse fqrr-r
a new deal, and the day he goes in office will be a big day
for the little fellow that toil on the farms for a living.
Now in conclusion we ask our readers to consider th«
different candidates and vote their conscience, pick the
men that will fill the office with credit to themselves and
their country and we have no doubt but that they will do
like the editor of this paper wiR do, and that is vote for
Roosevelt for President, Russell for the Uuited States'Sen
ate, Rivers for Governor and Roberts for Commissioner.
AWW SUPERIOR
COURT WAS A SHORT ONE
j The August Term of Bryan
County Superior Court met at
Clyde Monday and adjourned on
Wednesday.
A number of uncontested di
vorce cases were granted after
which the case of Mrs. S. E-
Blitch and Brown Blitch vs H.

of ejectment and was the first of
its kind to ever be tried in the
county.
Messrs Gardner aad DeLoach
have been in possesion of about
275 acres of land in the 1380th
District for about nine years and
so far as they knew had a perfect
title to same, but in tbe suit that
was broght it was contended that
the property was secured from
Sam Blitch deceased and that he
was not of sound mind End the
jury gave the plaintiffs a verdict.
The case will be carried to the
higher courts.
On Tuesday the case of Brooks
M«E|veen, charged with murder
was taken up. The case grew
out of a fatal accident some time
ago at Reka. when the truck
driven by McElveen ran into a
notber auto on the highway and
inflicted injuries which caused
ths death of Clanton Richardson
i a little 10 year old Evans County
: boy. He was found guilty of in
voluntary manslaughter and the
jury recommended that he be
punished as for a misdemeaor and
■ have the mercy of the court. He
was given a sentence of 12 months
and fined $l5O. and the chain
gang sentence was probated- ’
On Wednesday the murder case
। agnnst J. Harvey Rogers charged
with the death of Miss Alberta
Parker, she having been killed
when a taxi cab driven by Rogen
ran into an electric light pole at
Groveland, and she sustained in
juries from which she died htei
at a Savannah Hospital. He was
found guilty and given a sentence
of 12 mouths on the gang and
fined 1200., and the chain gang
sentence was probated.
The above and two speeches
