CHARLTON COUNTY HERALI
VOL. X.--NO. 46.
THE DEMOCRATS
OF MINNESOTA
ARE PUSHING THE
CANDIDACY OF
GOV.J. A. JOHN
SON FOR THE
PRESIDENCY
AS THE FOLLOWING LETTER FROM
THE MINNESOTA STATE DEMO
CRATIC COMMITTEE WILL SHOW,
April 3rd, 1908.
Editor Herald,
. Folkston, Ga.
Dear Sir:—
+ You are a democrat and it
is because you are a demoerat that
this is addressed to you, with the
feeling that you will exert yourself
to give the party one of the greatest
essentials to victory, a strung and
acceptable candidate for the presi
dency.
The democracy of the nation has
for twelve years been losing ground
and the belief is general that under
the old conditions defeat js certain.
For months the party has been
drifting toward an autocratic con
vention, where popular choice is to
‘be subordinate‘to personal will.
Minnesota democrats. féeling that
party duty transcends individual in
terest, have had the courage to
break away from the drift and offer
the party a candidate who if nomi
nated can carry more states than
any other living democrat, and who
m}uld be pmfi%j; certain of elgfi?
tion, ngel agamst the do§
ttine of despair, we take it®for
‘granted that there is no necessity
for the ravens of defeat to perch on
BOUENA Tgog T '
Conditious industrialiy, financial
ly aud politically are such that ‘we
have this year the opportunity >f a
generation to win the presidency
Why give it up by supinely acquiesc
irg in any nomination which guar
antees defeat?
If you and the other democratic
ieaders of the c(mntry will but re
gpond to the invitation and the op
purtunity extended to you by the
democrats of Minnesota, we can es
cape trom the blighting tradition of
defeat, and rehabilitate the party
and the nation by a great political
victory next November.
We enclose herewith a statement
showing Goverror Johnson’s availe
ability, his record and his princl
ples. We bespeak for it a careful;
~ eading. |
But don’t forget that there is still‘
Imle time to see that enough dele
gates are elected 1o the Denver con
vention to make that a deliberative
democratic body that will give the
party new hope and new inspiration
and a winning candidate. -To this
end, we solicit your. co operation
and will hear.ily welcome and con
sider any suggestions you may offer.
Youwss for victory,
Fred’k B Lynck
FORM JOE BROWN CLUBS.
The following letter from Mayor
R. R. Hopkins, of Brunswick, will
show the sentiment there,
Mr. W. H. Mizell,
Folkston, (3a, |
Dear Sir:—
I don’t know just how you stand
in the governatorial situation, but
there is a large number of us folks
over here who have gotten enough
of Hoke Smith and intend to work
Joe Brown. If you happen to feel
the way we do, we will appreciate
your assistance in Charlton County
by in some way forming a ‘‘foe
Brown Club,” which would extend
over several counties, Charlton a
mong them.
Kindly let me hear from you and
give me the sentiment in your
County.
Very. truly yours,
R. R. Horkixs,

If you value good health, then do
your partin keeping Folkston in a
sanitary condition. It would be
well to adopt the following resolu
tions as taken from hezlth notes
published in Jacksounville, Fla.
“That I will keep my back yard
as ciean as the front, That I will
cultivate a love for flowers. That
[ will cultivate fiowers for my love
of them. That I will cultivate eter
nal disguss for the filthimes of flies
and the annoyance of mosquitoes;
a wholesome apprehension of the
danegrs of both; and upon my prem
ises neither shall breed,”
