He was for sixteen years salesman
over Georgia.
He left school to enter the Confeder
ate service, and is now member Troup

He is a clean man of integrity and as
capable, worthy and well qualified as
any who ever filled the office of State
Treasurer. (Read what others say of l
him.) }

Park to get into all communities, al- |
though he has visited almost every'
county in the state, and is grateful for
the hearty assurances of support re
ceived through the malls and where
ever he has gone.
Under every administration for years
the Auditors, Legislative committees
and Clearing Houses have found the
State Treasury department in fine |
condition, and Lem Park promises as |
capable, efficient and honest service as
sny ever rendered.
Ben F. Perry, editor Jonesboro
News and the Grady County Progress,
at Cairo, will serve as Chiet Clerk,
which position he satisfactorily filled
for nearly four years, is a guarantee of
experienced service.
Vote for Lem M. Park for State
Treasurer on Wednesday, August 19,
. And have your friends do likewise.

s.—Alex. W. Stephens, one of his opponents, has been defeated
through the efforts of those who best know his merits and abilities—
his home lawyers and his ome people—for justice of the peace, for the
legislature, for solicitor of the city court and for several other offices.
He has never been elected by his home people to any office, while
Judge Broyles has never been defeated by them.
6.—Mr. Staphens, several years ago, endorsed and recommended a
NEGRO for admission to the Bar. Mr. Stephens may not object to
NEGRO lawyers cross-questioning white witnessees—perhaps white
women—but Judge Broyles does, and he would never endorse a NEGRO
for admission to the Bar. Let the people of Georgia say on August 19
how they stand on this question,

SUPERIOR COURT: ]
JUDGE Nash R. Broyles, one of Atlanta’s best
known lawyers, is going to win his race for
the state cov.% of appeals by an overwhelming ma
jority, BECAUSE—
-I—He stands for the impartial enforcement of
all laws. .
2—He is opposed to those trivial TECHNICAL
ITIES which are employed to defeat the ends of
justice.
3—He gave way two years ago for the sake of
party harmony to Judge J. R. Pottle after tying
with him in the primary.
4—He is better gqualified for the position than
either of .his two opponents. Although all three
candidates live in Atlanta, Judge Broyles is en
dorsed and supported by 90 per cent. of his home
lawyers, who best know the respective merits of
those in the race. He is also supported by such
