CHARGES AGAINST COL.
CHEREY ARE DENE
To the Voters of Cobb County:
I learn that some one who evi
dentlv wishes to injure Col. John P.
Cheney in his race for the legisla
ture has circulated a report to the
effect that Col. Cheney charges the
tenants on his farm for house rent,
firewood and pasturage. I don’t
see how any one could believe such
a report but for fear they should 1
want to say that I live on his farm
and this report is absolntely untrue.
Last fall I moved to his farm and
hired to him to work for this year
for wages. Early in the year I was
taken sick and have been unable to
work ever since and will not be able
to work any this season.
I told Col. Cheney that as I
would not be able to carry out my
contract to work for him and as he
needed another regular hand at
once and also had to have a house
to put him in that I would move out
and let him have possession of the
house I was, and am now, living in
ut that I did not know where I
luld find another just at that
B.
> told me not to worry about
s he expected to stick to me
at I should have the use of
use together with firewood,
n, pasturage, ete., without
ents cost to me for the bal
f the year if I continued sick
anted it. While I have been
have had to call my doctor
fter time over the telephone
farm and it has not cost me
ent.
ny one will take the trouble
>me down here and investigate
y will not only find that these
vorts are absolutely untrue but
!uey will find that Col. Cheney treats
Il of the men on his farm hke a
true friend and furnishes all of them
with gardens, patches, pasturage
and firewood and good houses free,
Which is something you don’t find
on every farm you see. He has no
trouble in getting as many tenants
as he can accommodate.
Another thing is he gives the men
on his farm work at good wages all
the year (when they are not in their
own crops) winter or summer, wet
or dry.
We are going to elect Col. Chen
ey to the legislature again by a big
majority.

COMMUNICATION OF
MR. J. W. L. BROWN
Addresses Voters' in a Personal Letter and
Reviews Qualifications of Candidates
for Solicitor General of the Blue
Ridge Circuit.
JOHN W. L. BROWN, A SON
OF JUDGE = JAMES . R
BROWN AND COUSIN TO
GOV. JQOSs. M. BROWN,
WRITES ABOUT THE SO
LICITOR’S RACE.
To the Votes of the Blue Ridge
Circuit:
I feel a keen personal interest in the
race for Solicitor in the Blue Ridge
Circuit, and rely upon my confi
dence in your friendship for myself
and my family connection in your
county and section as my excuse
for speaking freely to you upon the
subject. lam interested, of course,
as you and every good citizen is,
in electing men for office who are
fitted to hold the place, and I be
lieve you will agee with me that
they are as a rule best qualified who
began on the gound floor, and
climbed by the exercise of their own
brawn and muscle to the place upon
which the office to be filled stands,
and not those who, by virtue of iu
fluential faimly and social connec
tion, seek to be lifted over the
rough and rocky road ‘of hard
work and placed in high positions
without the strength and training
to grasp the many and varied sit
uations that arrive. A lawyer wha
has not done the work of a lawyer
would be as helpless in the office
of Solicitor-General of the Blue
Ridge Circuit as his society-bred
wife would be in a wheat field with
a scythe cradle.
While Mr- Herbert Clay was
Mayor of Marietta and while Jos.
M. Brown, a citizen of Marietta
and a life long friend of Mr. Clay’s
father and famljy, was a candidate
for Governor, Clay made a speech
in Atlanta (which, by the way, he
now would like to deny) in which
he denounced and ridiculed Gov.
Brown, in effect saying: That
Marietta was ashamed to recognize
him as a citizen.
Gov. Brown’s political oppo
nents, those who are not rotten
with prejudice and hatred, will all
recognize him as a decent citizen
whom no community need be
ashamed of, and I believe it is fair
to estimate that 99 per cent. of the
Blue Ridge Circuit believe this to
be true, including the Mayor of his
home town, who holding office as
he did was a ready and willing
mouthpiece for the slandering and
maligning of one of his constitu
ents and friends at the expense of
truth and the sacrifice of his pride
for the city whose name he rep
resented for no other purpose than
to add his little quota of acrimoni
ous insult to a good citizen who hap
pened to be opposing his chosen
candidate for office. The point is,
this statement was gratis on Mr.
Clay’s part. Governor Brown was
not contesting with him for office:
there was not the provocation of
seif defense, or excuse of impulse,
or resentment for such tactics: it
was deliberate and born of igno
rant, bigoted imprudence : and if he,
while at the head of his own city
government, could attack one of his
constituents and friends away from
home with such weapons, and seck
to place him in contempt in the eyes
of the people in order to strengthen
the political fortunes of another, it
could hardly be expected that when
his own political fortunes are in
volved he would not employ such
weapons as are available to him;
and that, if he was Solicitor of the
Blue Ridge Circuit, where political
feeling is high and sectional lines
closely drawn, he would find many
opportunities to butcher his oppo
nents and shield his friends.
In my judgment, he is no more
than a shallow, irresponsible dema
gogue, ready to convert public of
fice or other position or power that
might be within his grasp to the
advancement of his political ambi
tion.
I think his record is too pregnant
with clamor for office and too va
cant of any sincerity to justify any
community in placing any such re
sponsibility upon him; he is not
equal to the job; he has had ne
training to fit him for it, and he is
not equipped with the spirit of fair
ness and justice that should charac-
presspror AL AND COURIER
terize one whose position places in
his hands so much that is vital to
lives and liberties of the accused,
and at the same time so much that
is essential to the community at
large,
Boiled down to the very essence,
he has but one ground to base his
claim for election on, and that is
that he is the son of his father.,
Mr. Brooke has fought his way
up without influential connection,
has climbed the ladder step by
step with his own legs, and has
gained strength and ability by the
exercise; he knows every round of
the ladder, and there are no long
skips between him and the ground.
Mr. Clay is asking to be lifted from
the bottom and placed -on the top
without the labor and the experi
ence incident to climbing. I believe
the Blue Ridge Circuit will com
mit an awful blunder to place the
administration of its criminal laws
in the hands of this incompetent
son of his father,
John W. L. Brown.

In other words, PREVENT disease by using RED DEVIL LYE as a germicide.
Kill every form of germ life by the use of FRed Devil Lye as a spray. Spray the
iroughs, the pens, the runs, even the feeding grounds, and do it well.
Have a “clean-up” day for the use of RED DEYVIL LYE every week. Red Devil
Lye is positive, absolute, and the cheapest germicide you can buy.
Add two 10-cent cans to five gallons of water. When usad as a gpray it goes a long

HON. JOHN P. CHENEY,
Who isin the race for re-election to
the Legislature from Cobb and promi
nently mentioned as a strong candidate
for speaker pro. tem. of the next
House.
STRAW BALLOT FAVORS
CLAY FOR SOLICITOR.
We started at Worley & Kirk’s
barber shop at two fifteen p. m. in
Marietta, and polled everybody we
met on the sguare in the Solicitor
General’s race. We found two
hundred and seventeen for Clay,
seven for Brooks and thirty-five
non-committal. From expressions
by those thirty-five, practically all
of them will vote for Herbert Clay,
but did not care to express them
selves openly. Geo. V. Welsh
W. M. Fleming.
FIRM FOUNDATION
Nothing Can Undermine It in
Marietta.
People are sometimes slow to recog
nize true merit, and they cannot be
blamed, for so many have been hum
bugging in the past. The experience,
of hundreds of Marietta residents, ex
pressed publicly through newspapers
and other sources, places Doan,s Kid
ney Pills on a firm foundation here.
Mrs. M. A, White, 104 Reynolds St.,
Marietta, Ga., says: *I suffered
severely from pains in my back and I
was told that my trouble was caused by
my kidneys not doing their work
properly. The difficulty was mostly
in evidende in the morning and some
times could hardly stoop. Doan’s
Kidney Pills proved a blessing and 1
had not taken them long before I was
cured. lam glad to reccommend this
preparation to anyone afflictad with
kidney complaint.” (Statement given
April 4, 1908 )
NO TROUBLE SINCE.
ON February 1, 1911 when Mrs.
White was interviewed she said: ‘I
have not had a symptom of kidney
complaint since I was cured by Doan’s
Kidney Pills nearly three years ago.
I praise this remedy just as highly
now as I did when my cure was made.”’

Based on reliable informat’
Committee begs to say to t

in the county to go tc the pells on
next Wednesday and cast his ballot
for H. L. Patterson, for the honor
able office of Judge, and by so do

strife in the courts.
The Patterson boom has invaded
every county in the circuit, in fact, a

date daily to come into Gilmer and
make a speech. We have implicit
confidence in the outcome of next
Wednesday. See that a free ballot
and fair count is had in your dis
trict. Look out for boodle and
booze. The opposition is growing
desperate, and we expect to see
tricks between now and Wednes

cuit. We know that they are hear
tily in favor of eliminating faction
alism in our courts. Keep it going
