Reports reaciiing Hfigb M. Dorsey headquarters in the Kimball
House, every day of the campaign, forecast his certain election.
Already strong Dorsey clubs have been organized in more than
eighty counties, and news of new Dorsey organizations, is coming
daily.
In some of these counties more than half the registered voters
, have signed up in the Dorsey Clubs,
In all of them the D >reey Club membership indicates a strength
that’ll sweep tne county for Hugh M. Dorsey on September b.
Hugh Dorsey is going to win for two reasons:
Because of his splendid record of service to the people of Geor
gia in the governors office, and,
Because he is the one true, tried and always loyal Democrat, in
the race.
He is standing squarely behind the national Democratic platform
and nominees, while Watson is opposing and kmfeing the platform,
aud Hoke Smith is wobbling and straddling at every turn of the wheel
Hugh M Dorsev is the man of “straight thinking” aud “straight
acting”—the kind of man Governor Cox declared is needed in public
office today.
Cast your vote for Hugh M. Dorsey—
Georgia’s next United States Senator.
