Rumors and reports of opposition to
various congressmen In Georgia are
afloat and many of them have been
printed. So far. Colonel L. F. Living
ston, of the Fifth, haa escaped tho
prognosticators along this Hna.
But whispers are abroad that two
new Richmonds will be In the field at
the drop of the flag. One Is John M.
Slaton, speaker of the house of repre
sentatives, and the other Representa
tive Murphy Candler, of DeKalb. Roth
are strong and popular men. John
Hlatou was speaker of the last house,
and was re-elected to lead the 1907-*08
house without opposition. He is a
member of the law firm of Slaton &
Phillips, and Is aa genial and courtly a
man a* can be found.
Murphy Candler Is considered by
many as one of the ablest men In the
general assembly. He made a fine rec
ord In the last senate, and Is now ono
of the strong figures in the house. Mr.
Candler Is a deep thinker, a close stu
dent of all questions concerned with
political economy, and personally 1h a
mighty fine fellow.
But there is no mistaking the fact
that any man haa a real Job cut out In
defeating "Uncle Lon." He haa been
In congress sixteen years, and has been
elected for his ninth term, which will
round out eighteen years of continu
ous service In the national house. He
Is tho dean of the Georgia delegation
and Is considered a past master In the
political game. If either Jack Slaton
or Murphy Candler or both get In the
race,* live times are ahead in the old
Fifth next year.
It .now looks like Congressman W. G. .
Brantley, of the Eleventh, Is also going
to have a run for his money. Judgo
Tom Parker, of the Brunswick circuit,
has about made up his mind that* ho
would like to succeed Congressman
Brantley, and his announcement Is ex
pected at any time.
In the Second, Hon. S. A. Rodden-
berry, of Thomasvllle, hoa already an
nounced his candidacy In opposition to
Congressman J. M. Griggs, which
means that there will be political fire
works In plenty down there from now
on.
Gordon Lee la to go back from tho
Seventh without opposition it seems
now. Judge Mose Wright will not en
ter the race; For a while It was ru
mored that Seaborn Wright would mix
It up with Congressman Lee, but It In
known that he will not do so. Thero
has been some talk of W. J. Neel, of
Cartersville, now a member of the leg
islature from Bartow, but Mr. Neel's
health will not permit him to make a
strenuous campaign, even If he desired
to enter the race. There has also been
talk of G. R. Hutchins, of Codartown.
Mr. Hutchins made the race against
Congressman Lee In the first race, and
got a pretty nice vote.
Congressman Livingston Is now busy
with an Inspector rearranging and com
pleting the rural route system of his
district. U Is his hope ultimately to
have evety county In the Fifth under
what Is known as the "county system,"
which gives the entire county rural
mall service.
In the eight counties making up tho
Fifth congressional district there are
now 106 rural routes In operation. De-
