THE CLEVELAND COURIER
\ r QL, XXII, No 7
In the court-house Tuesday after¬
noon Hon. Clifford Walker ad¬
dressed an audience in the interest
of his candidacy for governor. His
audience was not as large as it
doubtless would have been had his
coming been better known to the
voters of the county, but those who
filled the court-room to comfortable
seating capacity lie was given a
most attentive hearing and was ap¬
plauded upon several occasions
when he was dealing with the
menace of bolshevism to America.
He told his audience the position
he would take in the interest of
better rouds, better schools and
better home conditions if he was
was elected governor, making a
splendid impression on his hearers
as he assured them of the errors of
the present system. He then
plunged with full force into the
evils of bolshevism, socialism, and
its supporters, and told how these
greatest of all evils operated secret¬
ly in this country to spend the fire
intended for the destruction of our
American governmet, proving con¬
vincingly to his audience that his
opponent, ex-seator Thomas W.
Hardwick, for a fee of $30,00)00
was councelling the leaders in this
movement how best to accomplish
the work of undermining and over¬
throwing the American govern¬
ment and the taking over of these
United States by the bolshevists,
ju*t'as they have taken over Rus¬
sia, and have made it a cesspool of
vice and crime.
He made no unkind personal
mention of Mr. Hardwick, but did
deal heavy blows at Mr. Hard¬
wick’s record as senator, stating
that he could not explain how a
man who had sworn to defend the
constitution and government of
this country could enter into the
employ of that element whose sole
purpose was to destroy that which
he sworn as senator to defend,
while he was senator, inferring
that he was senator wiple he enter¬
ed into the employ of Martins, the
leader of bolshevism in America.
In answer to Mr. Hardwick’s
statement that the bolshevists
mailed a bomb to his home, he
told his hearers that this bomb was
mailed one year before he entered
Into the employ of these nefarious
revolutionists, proving that they
were revolutionists by sworn state¬
ments from the official records of
their trial.

Has it ever occurred to you that the dollars you save
now will go twice as far in purchasing a home or any other
necessity when normal conditions return? The record h:gh
wages and salaries of today make this the most logical time
to save
Every dollar deposited today in savings will be worlh
considerable more in buying power when prices drop, in
addition to drawing interest. Appreciating the import¬

The political pot is boiling at a
lively rate up here. Mr. Kelley
spoke to a small crowd last week.
His speech consisted of criticisms
against everything the government
had done to successfully end the
war and a savage attack on the
League of Nations. Everything
that had been done was in violation
of the constitution and against the
liberties of the people. He appeal¬
ed to the voters to elect him to con¬
gress, and told some of the big
things he would do.
The question naturally arises:
“What would we gain by dropping
a man who has been tried and is
true, a citizen of our county and
electing a stranger who is inexperi¬
enced and about whom we know
nothing?”
Another thing : No one can tell
front his speech whether he is a
democrat or a republican. He can
not be a democrat, as he is fighting
everything the party stands for. If
he should be elected, he would be
without any standing in congress
and without any influence. The
democrats wouldn’t have him and
the republicans wouldn’t want him.
Our district would be the same as
not represented. These are my
honest views after going carefully
over the situation.
The best thing for us to do is to
select Tom Bell, and I feel sine the
people of the ninth district will en¬
dorse this statement on the 8th of
September.

GOOD ROADS DAY
IN WHITE COUNTY
September 10 has been named as
a day when all male citizens, re¬
gardless of age, will go out and do
one day’s work on the public roads

heve these road days, and why not
White county ?
Talk this up among the citizens,
and let every man and boy go out
on this day at the place and on the
road he may select and do one days
work on the roads. Let this be a
patriotic road day.
Let no one oppose this move¬
ment, but talk it up. Aside from
the benefits derived therefrom, let
it also be a great social day.

To the Tax Payers of White
County ;
H. J. Pullbright, state tax com¬
missioner, has ordered an addition¬
al raise on all property in White:
county, both personal and real, of
25 per cent. This is in addition to
a 15 per-cent raise ordered by him
some tulle ago, and complied with
by the tax board ol lax equalizers.
This additional raise would make
a raise all told of 40 per cent. It.>
would increase your lax nearly a
halt it this iaise succeeded. The
tax equalizers have demand an ar
bitralion of this raise and there
will lake place an arbitration soon
on this quest ion.
It is my purpose to use ever)
legal means to defeat this raise and
back up the tax equalizers in de
tending iheir position. They firm
ly believe they have done justice to
the people and are ol the opinion j
that the valuation set by them i
just and £ that an additional iaise ol
would be unjust 1

Georgia’s Next
U. S. SENATOR
Hugh M, Dorsey
'Litis race is won.
Hugh M. DotAey is going to be the next United States
Senator from Georgia.
Overwhelmingly I avertible reports from every county in
every .district in the State.leave no doubt as the result.
I he evidence is piled up here in Dorsey headquurtess in a
daily until so Urge that an extensive force of stenographers
can scarcely handle it.
Over 100 eiitltusinslit* Hugh M. Dorsey Clubs have
been organized in as many eounfies all over Georgia.
The names ol voters—many thousands of them—are sign¬
ed to these lists.
Hugh Dorsey is going to carry more thou 100 comi¬
ties in the primary, including Ijulton, his home county, and
all the other six vote counties in the State.
The light irt won against Watsonism—won by Dor¬
sey.
Senator Smith will be a poor third in the race, and will
not even poll as large a vote as in (lie presidential primary,
when he was the last man in the running.
This is tlie natural result of Hoke Smith’s betrayal of the
Democracy of Georgia in the convention of May iSth, when
he combined with Watson in denouncing the National Demo¬
cratic Administration, and attempting to stab it in I He back.
Every report reaching our headquarters shows conclusive¬
ly that this is a contest between Dorsey and Watson, and that
Hoke Smith has not even a remote chance of figuring in the
convention.
When Georgians go to the polls on September 8th, they
are going to pul their emphatic stamp of disapproval on the
Watson-Smith combination, and its assault upon the platform
and administration.
Georgians will not tolerate Party assassination.
They will repudiate wobbling, -straddling and turncoat
ism.
They are going to do it in the only possible way—by
electing Hugh M. Dorsey United Stairs Senator.
DORSEY IS A SURE WINNER.
