Sold by All Good Dealers. Wholesale Lord & Taylor NEW YORK Alex Stephens Denounces Circulars and Charges Of His Opponents To the People of Georgia: There is being circulated throughout the state pernicious cir culars, advertisements and verbal charges falsely accusing me of habitually indorsing negro politicians and charging that my “per sonal tastes and Inclinations” run along such lines. I denounced these scurrilous a ttacks as wilful, malicious, un mitigated lies, circulated and instigated at the eleventh hour of the campaign by a gang of Atlanta rlngsters and political trickster* who are seeking to put one of their crowd, the Atlanta police mag istrate, upon the bench of the C ourt of Appeals. They have a grip upon the politics of Atlanta and the county of Fulton and will stop at nothing to control the politics of the state. They realize that they have met defeat, and, seeing the hopelessness of their cause, they, in order to save it, now stoop to scandalous charges against me. As against these false attacks I put the testimony of Judge Horace M. Holden, Judge Spencer R. Atkinson. Judge J. R. Pottle. Judge Arthur G. Powell. Hon. Sam S. Bennett, Judge H. Gray Lewis. Judge E. E. Cox, Joseph E. Pottle and hundreds of others throughout the state who indorse my character as a lawyer and as a man. I have run a clean campaign and expect to continue to do eo. I have made no personal attacks upon Recorder Broyles. I have no mud to sling. I desire to go upon the bench free from the contamination of dirty politics. Being a native Georgian and Imbued with all the traditions of the South; having been raised by and in the house with the Vice President of the Confederacy and Governor of Georgia, my Uncle Alexander H. Stephens, whose honored name I happen to bear, Is alone a sufficient answer to these vicious attacks. W'hile I seek a place upon the Court of Appeals upon what ever merits I myself possess, I appeal to the people of Georgia, as my Uncle would do were he here today, to rally to my support on the 19th and rebuke this crowd of Atlanta rlngsters and character assassins, who, for selfish end* and political purposes, are endeav oring to besmirch my character and, through me, to befoul and dishonor his good name.
