For Railroad Commission
Walter R. McDonald, the blind legis
lator from Richmond county, is a can
didate for the Railroad Commission of
Georgia to succeed Hon. C. Murphy
Candler, who is not offering for re-
election.
At the age of thirteen, a poor boy
on his father’s small farm In Rlchnfbnd
County, near Augusta, the youngest of
seven children, he was suddenly strick
en with total blindness. Realizing that
the light of day had been forever
barred from his Vision, the young fann
er boy set out to win an education
and with a determination to serve hiB
state In spite of his handicap of blind
ness. Having advanced only to the
fourth grdde In common school, and
knowing that his family was unable to
jive him an education, he set to work
rad, by his own effort, working during
school terms and vacation, earned and
paid for hts education, graduating from
the University of Georgia in 1914.
Since that time he ha3 successfully
practiced law in the City of Augusta,
there he is considered one of the
shiest of the younger lawyers of that
Mctlon. McDonald is now in bis early
thirties.
Hr McDonald Is a man whose cheer
fulness is tiji inspiration to his friends,
of thorn there are thousands. As an
eridenee of his popularity and ability
the voters of Richmond County have
for three successive terms sent him to
the State Legfslat«re over opposition.
Walter R. McDonald.
In the Legislature, he has made an
active, efficient and able member.
Mr. McDonald's host of frienus
throughout the state confidently pre

To the voters of Bold win county:
Having been approached by quite
i number of citizi ns of Baldwin coun
ty with the request of me to make
‘lie race for county commissioner,
ind having been indorsed at a mass
neeting held recently at the court
bc-use as a candidate for the plhee,
ommlttees from almost every tus
trict having given my name their en-
lorsemcnt, I have decided to yield to
lie requests made of me.
After carefully considering the met
ier,'I have come to the conclusion mat
not to accede to the requests of so
many citizens of the county would be
nothing short of a manifestation of in
gratitude. I appreciate the honor tna<
lias already been conferred upon me.
mil in offering my name as a oalldt
date for county commissioner I wish
to make it understood that 1 am under
ibl^gations to no one.
Should the ipeople see fit to elect
me, I will gi^nto office with the view
)f standing for every means of re
trenchment in order to help as far
as possible lift the heavy burdens of
taxation from the shoulders of the peo
ple. I shall stand for a strictly bus-
ness like and constructive administra
tion of the affairs of the county.
Should you desire my election, 1
assure you your support will be ap :
predated. »
