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, - SUPERIOR COURT. ~ Court convened Tuesday morning at ten o'clock with Judge T.
