Indications now are that John M. Slaton will be nominated by over whelming vote. Reports from all the counties indicate that the opposition to him is in large measure negligi ble. Mr. Slaton has made a clean fight. He has placed his candidacy BEFORE THE PEOPLE without regard for fac tion, class or station. Knowing that it is easy, but not always honest, to make idle promises, he has confined his platform pledges to what he means and what he be lieves he can accomplish. He has proffered no unredeemable political promissory notes on which to “kite” himself intc office—then to be ig nored. His canpaign has been free of denunciation or anything partaking oi villification. His nearly eichteen years of serv ice to the people of Georgia in a practically nou-yaying capacity, is the GUARANTEE offered on his be- HOW TO MARK YOUR BALLOT. WHITE DEMOCRATIC STATE PRI MARY, AUGUST al, 1912, (Voter should erase names of all candi- | o dates for whom he does riot desire to vote). For Governor. —Hoopac Alexander— John M. Slaton — (Vote for one) or Uni St a BE SURE TO STRIKE TWO—THE THE FIRST TWO! The above illusration is given to prevent the confusion caused two years ago by three candidacies. half of his fitness to hold the office he seeks. Each page of every chap ter of that service is as readable as the sun at noon. To the man that is unbiased—and the time has come in Georgia to strike bias if we are to have effective government—no item in any one of the chapters of Jack Slaton’s service can be challenged. Not one has been attacked or criticis €d by his bitterest foes—if he has any real foes. ASK THOSE WHO KNOW HIM., Scattered in every county of Geor gia are men of worth and reputation who have served with and under Sla. ton in the Legislature. These men came from and returned to the peo. ple., Ask them about Slaton, He 's willing to abide their verdict. John M. Slaton has conducted a straightforward campalgn. Ignoring the politicians as such, he has gone direct to the individual voter. ~ His <candid method—the same he has al way pursued in politics—has proved sucecessful again. Instead of making a still-hunt, as a few billious citizens accuse him, he has done quite the opposite. He will be under no obliga tion to any man or set of men with seifish interests to serve. g HIS PLATFORM. . platform, in its particular fea ‘r% upon which he has made the the sanest and soundest yet ‘ L , @ .nds for— ’*s preservation of the West “fnte gnd Atlantic Railroad as a L e ﬁy of the State. s t'development of our swamp 57 vement of educational fa | & until every tow-headed o ay receive sufficient edu -2@ Bn to cnable him to success e o * S cet modern competition. ‘_nrotcctiou of the State’s : = regulation of public serv ‘T—_‘-pora.tions. enforcement of all laws.

SLATON. Any move calculated to bring the Jud.ciary, the KExecutive, or any other branch of government, when competently and honorably conducted, into disrepute. The above is a summary of the im portant planks. His position on pub lic questions in general, as taken upon nearly every conceivable one during his service in the Legislature, is so well known that it would be superfluous to restate it in detail here, Here are some of the questions with which the next administration will have to deal— The refunding of three millions and a half of bonds. The disposition of the State’s railroad for at least another gen eration, The reformation of the State’s fiscal system and the rehabilita tion of the State’s finances. The above are the BIG questions which will have to be sclved. THE BEST EQUIPPED MAN. Mr. Slaton is well equipped by ex perience and native ability to handle them. They are matters of too much importance to be trusted to an im practicable theorist or a visionary propogandist, They call for the ap plication of practical business sense, of tried statesmanship. Mr. Slaton has both. He offers the people no Utopia, but efficient and effective service. His record shows that he may be trusted to render that which he proffers. Twice has he been Speaker of the House—elected each time without op position. (Both of his opponents voted for him.) Twice has he been President of the Senate—chosen unanimously on each occasion by a bi-partisan vote. Though he has presided during many crucial battles, not once has a ruling made by him been reversed. On frequent occasions have his fel lows—including his opponents—joined in paying voluntary tribute to his fairness, his ability and his integrity. MANHOOD HIS STANDARD. Jack Slaton isn’'t given to judging people by label or prejudice. His criterion is that of simple, upright Georgia MANHOOD. For example: Perhaps the first spegch of length ever delivered by him In the legisla tive halls was in favor of seating a Populist who had been honestly elect ed. Many of the Democrats, acting from partisan motives, wanted to un seat him. Slaton said, ‘“No; this man received a majority of the votes and should retain his place, regardless of his party afflliation.” He said fur ther: “NO PARTY SHOULD EVER BE AFRAID TO DO RIGHT.” He won his point, The incident is mentioned to show Slaton’s inherent sense of fairness— and for the consideration of a few who have growled because the ex- Populists, who are the original pro gressives, are supporting him, Above party or faction, Slaton {s, first of all, fair-minded, and believes in, and insists on, a square deal for every one. All factions know they will get a square deal from him., That's why they have declared a truce, so far as the governorship Is concerned, and are joining in choosing him as a dis tinctly non-factional Governor. It accounts for the support he is receiving from progressives, as well as conservatives, from ex-Populists as well as old-line Democrats, from Smith men as well as Brown men. The public men of the State are almost unanimously for him. The newspapers, with the exception of four or five, out of nearly 250 in the State are advocating his candi dacy. Less than a score of men in the present lLegislature, of which both his opponents are members, will vote against him, Less than fifty of all the twelve hundred ex-members who have known him are for either of his opponents, And the farmers, the workingmen, the artisans and the business men are, so far as can be determined, equally as strong for him. And those who know John M. Sla ton personally know that no one of the thousands who will vote for him on next Weilnesday will have cause to regret the act. For he is not only going to be Gov ernor. He i 3 going to make a GOOD GOVERNOR. : THE MARIETTA JOURNAIL ANDCOURIER Mackinaw Steamer Coat Pretty and Convenient W it : SRR R o (;:2{\ X R 3 o -n:‘.
