To the Voters of Cobb County:
My duties in the Legislature have
made it impossible for me to canvass
the county and talk with you about
my race for re-election and for that
reason I am going to ask each “one
of you to read and consider this
communication.
I appreciate the splendid vote
you gave me in my last race and
sincerely trust that my attention to
the duties and responsibilities at
that time placed upon me by you
as one of your Representatives will
justify me in asking for re-election
at your hands.
I have tried faithfully to vote on
-every question with intelligence and
to represent your best interest in
every case. I may have made mis
takes but if so they were honestly
made. There are generally two
;si:los to every question and the vote
|tl‘.wt would please one side will
sometimes displease the other, but
a people in examining and weighing
a man’s legislative record should
not lock only to his vote on one
question, but rather to all and weigh
them all together.
I have not missed but one days’
session since I was sworn in and
that was on leave of absence to at
tend the Cobb County Masonic Con
’vention, of which I was Master, at
Acworth last summer.

I am, ana ought to be, loyal to
the intercsts of the farmer, for I
am largely interested as one of
them and the farmer has never
gotten up any movement in the
county to promote the farmers in
terests but what I have loyally sup
ported it and I expect to continue
to do so, and if the farmer fails to
send a loyal representative to, the
legislature he will surely fail to get
his share of legislation.
I think I can also say with an
equal degree of truth that I have
done my part toward the laboring
man’s interest for I have invested
most of my money in manufactur
ing plants to furnish him labor here
in Marietta.
I want to say that I am not own
ed, controlled or influenced in any
shape, form or fashion by any poli
tician or set of politicians and am
not going to run anybody else’s
race hut my own, and if I am re
elected I wont have my hands tied
but will be in a position to do my
duty unhampered by prior political
aftiliations or promises.
If I go back to the legislature as
one of your representatives 1 will
be able to start in on the same foot
ing with the old members who re
turn and I know that my chances
are good for election as Speaker
Pro. Tem. of the House and also of
getting on the most important com
mittees. If I did not think so I
don’t think I would have made the
race again.
[t takes time to become familiar
with the rules and work of this law
making body and to become acquain
ted with the members. [ have
done tnis now and feel like 1 will be
able to more ably represent you in
the next legislature than I possibly
could in the past. As I have said
my future prospects in the legisla
fure are bright and if you honor me
by your votes I assure you that my
record will meet with your hearty
approval.
I shall appreciate every vote that
is cast for me on August 21st and
in return I pledge you the very best
service I can possibly render the
people of my county.
Very respectfully,
JOHN P. CHENEY.

The Question of Senator
’
Bacon’s Record.
I notige going arcund (he press a statement
hesded ‘' Bacon’s Splendid Recerd.” It is often the
ease that at the wind up, & sepresentative may
wvote for @ measure and in & way keep his record
right, But it is when the bill {s in its formative
stage, when amendments are made or rejected
that his true leaning is shown. I have only this
tosay: Mr. Bacon doubtiess has voted righton
many matters. But I showed in my open ietter
to him published months ago and in my article in
the Farmers Union News six weeks ago, the book
and and date where on vital questions he
votetru.@nst his party and against the people.
He has not attempted tc deny these votee and can
not do so. I submit they demonstrate that he has
on these matters affiliated with the Republicans:
that he has not had at heart the welfars of the
people; that he is not progresgive and not alive ta
the important issues of the day; that he has ob
structed neeeuu? reforms with unfounded con
stitvtional quibbles; that however honest his mo
tives he is the vz type of man the trusts would
like to keep in ce—hence the machine politi
cians ltmtihnll the lnfluence-‘.vhlch have ever ll:een
agsins € common people are supportin im,
He has failed to show, when chlrl:ngei any
measure he has had enacted for the benefit of the
country in his long years of publie office, and it is
time for a change. No true iover of his country
can afford to vote to re-elect him,
