18-6 1 Register, mi lit Is Issued by CKspalgi CosHtee. vigcrcus lampsp To the democratic voters and people of the state; The general election of officers, federal, state and county, comes off the 6th of November. It is important to every interest of the demo cratic party, and through it the state, we should: have a full vote. We are submitting" to the people and the next legislature a platform truly democratic and em bodying the demands of the people, demands which enacted into laws and made operative, give the old soldiers more care and pro tection, give the children of the state better school 'give to the boys and' girls of the factories and mines, better protection and compulsory education-, gives to each locality the right to decide for itself, conditions governing the sale of spirituous and malt liquors; give to the electorate, freedom from debauchery through funds arising from corporation subscrip tions; and tn the largest measure prevents the hiring of grafters, Eliminate the lobbyist from the state capitol, and put the hired lobbyist on public record and re' quire him to name his master and the amount to be paid. These demands make the pres ent freight rates of the state the maximum rates, and prevent the raising of any freight rates with' out first enacting a law allowing it take all the articles of common manufacture, production, con sumption and use, and by law give the Georgia classification and rate, thus protecting the manufacturer, producer and consumer, with an equalized and protective freight charge; require the railroad boycott of the port at Mobile and our river railroad crossings to be broken, and that these great assets of the state be given for the use and benefit of the people as theGod of naturetm placing them in our midst and the large expenditure of the government to open ancTmake navigable? and safe, intended.

These demands require equitable car service rules and prompt settlement of all claims; protect the shippers' interest and prevent discrimination; prevent the further watering of railroad securities, stocks and bonds; place the express, telephone, telegraph and other public service corporations, under the control of the railroad commission, and will prevent extortion and establish a fair, equalized charge. They further require that adequate power be conferred upon the railroad commission to enable them to discharge the functions for which they were created; require that the sancity of the Sabbath be protected by preventing the running on Sunday of freight trains, unless the freight trains are carrying perishable freight, thus giving those of our fellow cit izens who are running these trains and doing this work, an opportunity to attend divine service with their families and a day of rest In all these measures the demo cratic party is trying to carry the great democratic principles of protecting the people. As an axiom of true government for the people, the envirpnment of the the manufacturer, producer, con sumer and laborer, with adequate protecting laws, is the sure and, only foundation for the upbuilding and developing of every interest, and we call upon every democrat, as well as every -true regardless of past party, 'affiliations to go to the polls and vote with us to carry out all these great mea sures, and we urge every demo cratic nominee to promulgate our platform and urge "every elector to go to the polls and We will state that our campaign fund will be limited to just what will be necessary for sending literature. and information to. the people at large.

We wifi have no fund to pay for services. And we call upon every one to help disseminate these measures and make them sure of accomplish party and of the people and help make their enactment into law sure. -It is the -people's fight for true democracy; let them take care of their J. Craig Smith. Chairman Democratic Campaign v.ommmcc.

President Roosevelt is figuring on' making some changes, in his cabinet as Secretary Shaw and Attorney-General Moody are soon to retire. George B. Cortelyou will be made secretary of the treasury, George von L. Meyer postmaster general, Charles Bone-part attorney general, Victor Metcalf secretary of the navy and Oscar S. Strauss secretary of commercial labor.

Had it not been for the demo crats in the last session of congress we would not have had a rate reform legislation, and, to the southern democrats in the legis lative halls can largely be given the credit. With this much need' ed reform already it is very necessary that we of the south give our representaives a large vote of approval next Tues day. The hurricane of September 26th and 27th, which swept Coden and Bayou la Batre out of existence left the people, who escaped with their lives, in very; needy circumstances and a relief committee has been organized to secure funds to relieve distress that now exists among those people. The 'committee has is sued an appeal for help to the people of Alabama, Those having anything to send to the committee can send it to A. C.

Hart, secretary of the Y. M. C. A Mobile, Ala. Railroads are good in developing a country in a general way, but good public highways not-only de velop thelieighbor hoods in which they are located, but enhance the value of property and aid widely scattered neighbors to mingle to gether in social intercourse and by that means make a more intel ligent people and create a greater love for farm life.

LOWERY. The income tax is beginning to loom np. The northwest was swept by a blizzard and snow storm last week. SSjfcVemfeftf 6th, is the day you are needed at the polls, democrats. It is now said that Cuba will have to pay $1,000,000 for her little waring troubles.

The contest for the governorship of New York State is the warmest in years. It was in Cherokee county that Sam Jones, the greatest evangelist that ever lived in the world, preached his first sermon. The clamor for tariff reform is not confined to the south by any means, and the indications are now that the democrats will make big gains in the next session of congress. The President has issued the annual Thanksgiving proclamation setting aside Thursday, November 29th, as a day on which to give thanks for the great blessings we have received to God. The farmers congress recently in session in Illinois, passed a resolution demanding that United States senators be elected by a direct vote of the people.

This is what the democrats have been advocating for years. President Samuel Spencer of the Southern Railway was the orator of the day at the Alabama Agricultural Fair, in Montgomery, last Thursday. His theme was the "relations of the railroads to the business of the state." Every democrat in Franklin county should go out to the polls on next Tuesday, November 6th, and vote the straight ticket from top to bottom, because if there was ever a time when the party's strength should be felt, it is now. i2 Hon. Frank Sargent, States commissioner of immigration, was the orator of the day at the Montgomery State Fair, Wednesday.

He said that a systematic effort should be made to en'cour age immigration to the state to aid in the' development "of our vast resources. 'WasTBoPWP. Na 5. No, 85. No.
