UNION RECORDER, MILLEDGEVILLE, CA., AUGUST IS. IC2S
Col. Erwin Sibley Makes
Strong Appeal to Ladies
I have accepted the management
, t he National Democratic Party in
(i , ircia for the Tenth Congressional
patriot now represented in our Con-
r nh by our fellow democrat, Hon.
jr | Vinson. The nominees of oui
artv ns >' ou ^ now » ® re Governor Al-
P. ,1 K. Smith of New York and Sen-
;‘ or Joseph T. Robinson, of tht
«ou hern State of Arkansas.
Vnfortunately, abusive and vitu-
iterative attacks are being made up
n t>ur nominees by a few members
f our own party in the effort to
create di-cord among us. Their ef
fort have boon 'principally among
women voters, hence this letter
ti> voa . I have confidence in your
•iiKvrity and your intelligence. No
ihi.uld take lightly the matter of
a political party with the
tra>i ' *ns, history and establishment
that the Democratic Party has
Southland, especially when the ef
fort is to form a dissatisfied group
in our own party and, in effect, join
th< opposition and become republi
cans in the disguise of democrats.
Therefore, I am urging upot
to be misled under the influence of
prejudice and abuse. Sincerity with
out wisdom is fanaticism and wis
dom without sincerity is hyprocrisy.
It is the part of wisdom to pause and
deliberate n long time upon such a
serious step as to join a group who
art- espousing the cause of the oppo
sition under the banner of friend
ship. Thin agitation is based upon
unreal and un-American questions
and before the election is over, the
truth will establish itself that <
Pem cratic Party has protected
through serious times and will do
now and is our only safe political
friend.
Should you desire to test my atti
tude. I say to you who arc
loon supporters so am I; and I will
compare my contributions to that
orcanization with any of you. If you
are a W. C. T. U., so am I, having
been an honorary member of this
pood organization for a number of
years and am still one with all dues
paid to date. To you who are prohi
bitionists I say, so urn I, having kept
the law without exception ever since
» passage. To you who at
rious convictions, I say s
ing of the protestant faith and my
work having been as an officer of
the Georgia Sunday School Associa
tion and as a Sunday School Teacher
<»f boys for many years both in At
lanta and Milledgeville and the teach
er now of some twenty-five young
men. And you are a Democrat and
So am I, and have been all my life
and there iy no real reason why you
or I should be otherwise at this time.
We must look at these things
practically and reasonably and not
be led off at a tangent into fanatic
ism under the spell of emotion and
excitement We cannot afford to re
move the ancient land marks that our
fathers have set and which have been
established for so long, nor can we
afford to deface them.
The Democratic party today chall-
*ngcy our sincerity and challenges
wisdom and within due time
will clearly see, and bolding ard well
defined, the real questions in this
campaign and will be happy that
have not made a misstep at this elec-
Fronu time to time .ay may
necessary there will appear the real
political issues of the day. In the
meantime, STAND BY OUR PARTY
Sincerely youra,

Notice
The Milledgeville Clearing House Association, the four
Banks of the city comprising the membership, wish to make
the following announcement in persuant of a rule adopted
at a recent meeting of the association:
Banks have for a long time realized their losses from
'malll checking accounts—the smaller the balance and more
active the accounts, the greater the loss. In applying a Service
charge, it is no^ a matter of making money, but saving it. We
feel that the unprofitable account should at least bear part
of the loss incident to carrying it on the books, and we
sincerely trust the charge will not have to be applied to a
ingle account. We trust that customers carrying a balance
of $50.00 or less will increase their balances so as to enjoy
tlie service of the bank free, as heretofore, and without
entailing loss to the banks. The co-operation of friends and
customers in eleminating losses of this kind is asked. One
ol the weakest points in the southern business world is the
fact that a large proportion of our people are accumulating
neither money or property. The first duty of every one,
in a business way, is to gain financial independence, and
this can be done only by saving a part of what we make. It
is our hope to see every bank patron have money ahead for
emergencies, opportunities, or for current use as the case may
he.
