Chairman Brand Writes.
To the supporters of Congress
man Tate: As the Buford Plow
Boy has named Hon. 11. L. Pee
ples, of this county, as its candi
date for congiess against Mr. Tate,
and advised the populists of the
district to support him, and as the
Jackson Economist, another popu
list organ, has joined in this re
quest in au editorial favoring bis
candidacy urged its followers to
vote for Mr. Peeples, it becomes
necessary for the democrats of the
county and all other supporters of
Mr. Tate to go to the polls next
Tuesday and vote for him. Of
course there is no chance for Mr
Peeples to defeat Mr. Tate, even
with a contested campaign, still
he, as the party’s candidate for
congress in this district, is en
titled, to and should receive the
entire democratic vote of the
county, I write this card because
many democrats of the countv
believing there is no opposition to
the democratic candidate may
neglect to vote.

WHAT THE LEGIS
LATURE IS DOING.
As usual lbs legislator* will he
flooded with bills, some good, some
bad, and each member, especially
the younger set, will try to get
through some bill so that he may
have something to show to his
constituents who intrusted to him
their interests, and that will be
useful for him in seeking a like
honor in the future. It is a com
mon remark that there is no honor
in going to the legislature, yet it
is a plain fact that the job never
goes begging. It is to be regretted,
however, that our ablest men do
not usually seek legislative honors,
and thus the state is the loser of
the ablest counsel and wisdom of
her citizens, ft is to he hoped
that the time will soon come when
the people will demand that their
ablest men be chosen to make
their laws. It is desirable that
men be chosen who seek office not
for political preferment or aggran
dizement, but who, out of love of
country and an unselfish purpose
to make their state prosperous and
its people free and happy, are
willing to spend their time and
talent in the advancement of the
state’s interests and in the furth
erance of all the social, civil and
religious liberties and institutions
that stand as landmarks of our
present civilization.
The News-Herald will notice the
proceedings of the legislature and
give its readers a short account of
the most important bills.
Some of the bills so far intro
duced are:
A UNIFORM TEXT BOOK BILL,
introduced by Senator Jarnigan,
will cause much discussion. It
provides for the appointment of a
text book commission to select
books to be used for at least five
years. Whether or not this is a
good plan we do not know; how
ever, there is certainly room for
improvement.
Senator Dennard ha-i introduced
a bill providing for the
SELECTION OF JUDGES AND SOLICITORS
by the supreme court. It pro
vides that the supreme court shall
submit a number of five to the
governor who shall make the ap
pointment from oue of the five,
subject to the confirmation of the
senate. We hope that bill will
pass.
Representative Hutchison’s bill
provides for the election of the
COUNTY SCHOOL COMMISSIONERS
by vote of the people. Let that
pass also.
Mr. McLauron’s bill calls for
the selection of one member of thff
COUNTY BOARD OJ. RwUCATION
from otishr Ynilitia district. Aud
it ought to provide that, if the
teachers and county school com
missioners be educated, the mem
bers of the county board should
be educated men, too. It is s
pretty sight to see the average
county board of education in
Georgia meet in extraordinary
session to select text books for
use in the common schools. Many
can’t write an intelligent letter,
solve a problem in complex frac
tious, or parse a simple sentence;
yet they are allowed to select text
books for the common schools of
our state.
Mr. Gary has a bill before the
house for the state to accept the
OLD SOLDIERS’ HOME.
Hou. W. T. Smith will cham
piou the cause in the senate.
Mr. Hardwijk will not intro
duce his bill to
DISFRANCHISE THE NEGRO,
but will instead introduce a bill
calling a constitutional conven
tion.
The dog law will likely be re
pealed.
A bill has been introduced to
the effect that the stato
BUILD A UNION DEPOT
iu Atlanta. It is proposed that
the state appropriate $500,000 for
that purpose. It seems that
amount is on hand and can be
expended only for the purpose of
paying the public bonded debt;
still these bonds do not mature
till 1915 and the money could
then be returned to its original
channel. The annual rental of
the depot would amount to about
#30,000, or $450,000 in fifteen
years.
In his message to the legisla
ture, the Governor recommended
that
THE PUBLIC SCHOOL FUND
be limited to #1,000,000, to be dis
tributed among th* counties as
now provided by law, but that no
county shall get its money until it
shall have raised by taxation upon
the taxable property iu the coun
ty an amount not less than 40
per cent of its share of the public
fund. A bill has beeu thus intro
duced, and Hon. W. T. Smith,
elsewhere in this paper, puts him
self on record against it. In short,
the bill means something like this:
I Suppose Gwinnett county gets
$15,000 for her public school fund.
j Then this bill proposes that the
*15,000 can be us- d by the county
' when 40 per cent of that amount,
or #5,000, is raised bv taxation on
tbs property of the county.
toti ron TAT*.
Elsewhere in this issue is print
• ed a card from Hon. C. H. Brand,
chairman of the county democrat
ic executive committee, calling
attention to the fact that the pop
ulists will vote for Hon. H L.
Peeples for congress in this dis
trict. Ho urges the democrats to
go to the polls and vote for Mr.
Tate. Many people do not know,
doubtless, that Mr. Peeples will
ba voted for, but such seems to be
the case, and for this reason the
people should turn out next Tues
day and elect their congressman
by an overwhelming vote.
WHIPPKII.
The republican party has been
whipped in the national campaign.
They have been whipped at every
point. They have no principles
to defend, and they have absolute
ly failed to answer the argument
of Bryan and other democratic
speakers. History does not fur
nish an account of such a remark
able campaign as has been made
by Bryan. Honest and eloquent,
he has spoken to the heart and
consciences of the American peo
ple ; anil we believe that American |
manhood will not be bought by
Hanna and McKinley, but out
rageously indignant at the propo
sition of Hanna to purchase the
sovereignty of a free people, the
voters of the nation will on next,

SENATOR SMITH WRITES.
In compliance with yonr request
for my views on certain pending
issue* to come before the Legisla
ture, I writ* you in regard to on*
important matter in which all
the people are interested. I do
not give my views because they
are important or instructive, but
having been elected to the Senate of
Georgia, the people of my county
and district have a right to know
how I stand on all questions
affecting their interest, whose
servant lam for the time being.
I told the people of my district,
during the campaign thas there
would be bd effort made to change
our public school system. My
prophecy waß correct. There has
already been introduced in the
Legislature a bill,which if success
ful will prove an entering
wedge to split asunder our public
school system in Georgia.
The corporate wealth, the com
mercial centers, the large cities,
the railroads, and other wealthy
institutions in our state have been
scheming for some time to find a
way to advoid the tax for public
school purposes. Their plan, as
outlined in the present bill, I arr,
informed is cleverly drawn. They
claim they want all the conn
ties in the Btate taxed in addition
to the state fund, in order to in
crease the general fund and there
by give us a longer school term.
This looks fine on its face, but the
truth is, it is well known that
the promoters of this measure
would have each county taxed to
furnish its owu school fund.
I believe if the people of a
sovereign state have the right to
impose a tax for the education
and eulightenment of its citizens
for the upbuilding of humanity,
aud in the interest of Christan
civilization, that every class of
property should bear its equitable
portion of the burden, and county
lines should cut no figures in it
I believe that the man in Fannin
county who pays taxes on forty
acres aud an ox, and pays what is
assessed against him, has done
his dutv tef the state and its
institutions as much as man who
has paid his legitimate tax on
half million of dollars worth of
property.
We must bear in mind that the
public school fund is for the good
of the whole body politic. The
wealthy cities and communities
in our state claim they are paying
more than their share of the
public school fund. I auswer
that they are payiug no more to
this fund than they are to any
other fund required by law’ to run
the state Government, and its in
stitutions: towit, the State Uni
versity, its branches, The Lunatic
and Blind Asylum, The girls
High Industrial School, Normal
School, i ct.
It is no argument to say that
tax is onerous because Gwinnett
and other counties get back more
than they pay out iu taxes. It
is an ingenious plan, brought
forward ostensibly to extend the
public term, but if it should
succeeed two years hence, you
will see the greatost effort to shift
the entire plan of raising of ihe
public school fund in a local man
ner, on the several counties of the
State; that is to sav, each county
■hall be taxed to educate its own
children. All the wealthy citizens,
railroads, and corporations in the
state want to get rid of the school
tax, and the bill now before the
Legislature is this first move on
the check board to that end . I
■hall do w’hat I can against its
passage As a representative of
the people, I shall stand by the
public free school system as
established in the state, believing
that the enlightened advancement,
future propserity aud glory of,
not not only this but all coming
generations, depends, to a large
degree, upon a broad aud liberal
education of the people
I have consulted no other
member of ihe House or Senate
on this question as the bill was
only introduced last Friday. 1
have not even read the bill. Have
only learned what it purports to
do, and I am thus frank to give
your readers the benefits of my
opinion about it.
Truly your friend,
W. T, Smith.
