ONE RECORD:
A. P. Stewart, Tax Collector, running for re-clection after 25 years’
service—and ‘‘fees,’”’ says:
““I stand on my RECORD.”
All right; here it is:
A.P.STEWART, Tax Collector, .
Plaintiff in Error ! No.Bo
Versus ; Atlanta Circuit
Commissioners of Roads and | Supreme Court
Revenues of Fulton County, l from
Defendant in Error. Fulton Superior Court
Judge Pendleton held the salary act good. Stewart appealed to Su
preme Court. Among other things, he said the salary act was bad because
it attempted ‘‘to deprive him of his private property without due process of
law.”” HIS OFFICE—HIS FEES—‘ ‘PRIVATE PROPERTY’’—think of
it, Mr. Voter! Isit not time to ‘‘excuse him’’ from further services. He
will claim the whole COUNTY next time!
THE OTHER RECORD:
C. I. Branan, candidate against Stewart, has spent twenty years of
time and money in FIGHTING for the PEOPLE of this county to STOP
‘‘fees’’ to county officers and SUBSTITUTE SALARIES.
The only way to do it is to elect Branan. He pledges himself, personally
and officially, to see the law passed and ENFORCED. This will not only
save the people of this county ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS
each year, but Branan WILL NEVER CLAIM that he owns the office of
Tax Collector. Is it possible any MAN wili vote for A. P. Stewart who
knows the FACTS? .
