THE GEORGIA CRACKER. Gainesville, Ga., January 23,1808. m HAVE YOU NOTICED THAT e » « ® e THE CRACKER IS PRINTING MORE NEWS, BETTER NEWS. ® FRESHER NEWS, THAN ANY PAPER IN GAINESVILLE ? Candler is not only in the race for Governor, but he’s in the lead and will stay there. He knows how to win. It now appears that Governor Atkinson’s party did not witness a bull fight in Mexico at all, let alone seeing one on Sunday. D<> not forget to trade with the advertisers of The Cracker. They are people who appreciate your business, and will treat you light. It can be almost positively stated that Allen D. Candler will be the Dext Governor of Georgia. A man of and tor the people is what Allen D. Candler is. Hon. Joe Terrell didn’t feel like he could buck against the “one eyed plowbov of Pigeon Roost.” He didn’t care to get knocked out so decided to let it alone. Judge J. J. Kimsey has made an admirable Judge of the Northeas tern circuit, and will probably be re-elected without opposition. He is now making his last round of the courts before the election will be held, and The Cracker believes it is the general desire of the bar and the people that he be elected to succeed himself. His adminis tration of justice has been done fearlessly and righteously, and the people commend him for it. It is said that Hon. Nat Harris of Macon, has had a gubernatorial bee in his bonnet for sometime. It will perhaps buzz a while longer for it is not believed he will op pose Colonel Candler, and besides he does not .care to enter a scram ble for the domination. Colonel Harris-is a mighty good man and The Cracker hope's to see him Governor of Georgia some day. CANDLER FOR GOVERNOR. Colonel Allen D. Candler has made his announcement for the nomination for Governor, the same appearing in nearly all the state papers this morning, in the nature of a reply to a petition from the people of Athens and Clarke county asking him to run, and in which he sets forth his views and his platform. His letter is char acteristically plain and to the point, and will touch a popular chord. In hie announcement Golonel Candler says: “I will stand for the nomination for governor of Georgia, and in doing so I will go to the people as the candidate of no ring, clique, faction or combi nation, but simply as an old-fash ioned Democrat standing on the platform of my party and believ ing in its tenets as declared by its national convention and expoun ded by Jefferson and Jackson ; and pointing with pride and confidence to a legislative record of seven years m our state legislature and eight years in the national con gress in which can be found no vote cast by me and no word uttered by me not in the interest of the common people who pay the taxes and bear the burthens of gov ernment.” Such a man upon such j s a deep-seated blood disease which a platform would ewee; the state ,f . vegetable ) is a real blood remedy for have existed for some years in Georgia and says he will make an earnest endeavor to wipe them out. The announcement is clear, and his position upon all public ques tions is shown';. Colonel Caudlei says his views afe tite doctrines ot true Democracy, and upon them he will go before the people wear ing the collar of no man or set of men. “If I am nominated” says Colonel Candler, “I will have no political debts to pay; no friends to reward ; no enemies to punish ; but will be free to give the people of my native state a clean, honest, economic business administration, without any effort at ostentation or show.” The Cracker hopes and believes Allen D. Candler, of the county of Hall, will be elected governor of the great state of Georgia. Don’t stop working for Gaines ville. That would never do.

But, going further, he draws a parallel between Democracy and Republi canism, and shows the evils which have been brought about by the triumph of the Republican party, which has as its leaders such tyrants as Hanna and McKinley. Colonel Candler places himself squarely on the Democratic plat form as adopted by the national convention at Chicago—a platform upon which he has always stood. Colonel Candler stands for an honest and economical administra tion of government. He believes its officers Bhould be held to a strict accountability of every dol lar expended. The people are now paying a higher rate of taxation, he says than ever before, and this needs remedying. “I know that the governor of the state has but little power in the imposition of taxes,” says Colonel Candler, “but he has some. He can wield a wholesome influence in the direct ion of economy, and the constitu tion and laws make it his duty to advise the legislature. If this faile to protect the tax payer, he has the ve'to wisely given him by the people to protect them against hasty and inconsiderate legisla tion.” “I know it will be difficult and in most cases undesirable to reduce the allowance now made by law to the various state institutions and objects of appropriation,” contin ues Colonel Candler. “Our schools must be maintained, our needy poor old soldiers who breasted the storm of battle for the protection of our homes must be provided for and the honor and creed of the state must be protected at what ever cost. But we can stop leaks and put on brakes, and see to it that this annual increase in the tax rate stops.” Colonel Candler pledges himself to enforce the laws as he finds them, unjustly discriminating against* nobody. Both white and black will be treated with the con sideration each deserves. . “In the punishment of crime,” he says, “I would'mete out the same even- handed justice to white and black alike, neither excusing the one be cause he is white, nor punishing the other because he is black. Col *nel Candler also refers to the corrupt election methods which soon blood diseases and has no equal. Mrs. Y. T. Buck, of Delaney, Ark., had Scrofula for twenty-five years and most of the time was under the care of the doctors who could not relieve her. A specialist said he conld cure her, but he filled her with arsenic and potash which almost ruined her constitution. She then took nearly every so-called blood medicine and drank them by the wholesale, but they did not reach ,her trouble. Some „ ’ one advised her to try S.S.S. and she very found that she had a real Mood remedy at last. She says: “After tak ing one dozen bottles of S.S.S. I am* perfectly well, my skin is clear and healthy and I would not be in my former condition for two thousand dollars. Instead of drying up the poison in my system, like the potash and arsenic, S.S.S. drove the disease out through the skin, and I was perma nently rid of it.” A Rial Blood Remedy. S.S.S. never fails to cure Scrofula, Eczema, Rheumatism Contagious Blood Poison, or any disorder of the blood. Do not rely upon a simple tonic to cure a deep-seated blood disease, but take a real blood remedy. Our books free upon appli cation. Swift Specific Co., Atlanta, Ga.
