THE ROME TRIBUNE, SUNDAY NOVEMBER 8, 1096.
A BIG MASS MEETING
To Be Held at the Court House
Saturday Next
CALLED BY THE COUNTY COMMITTEE
To Select Delfg teg to the Convention Which
Is tu Nc inmate Candidates bor th®
tiuprire Court.
There was au important meeting of
the county democratic executive com
mittee yesterday.
The principal object was to select a
day for the mass meeting to choose del
egates to the state convention which
will nominate candidates for the su
preme court.
Next Saturday, November 14, was
selected as the day for the mass meet
ing. All the democratic citizens of
Floyd county will be expected to turn
out and participate.
This duty is a very important one.
The delegates from Floyd will, of
course, support Floyd county’s candi
date.
That is Judge Joel Branham, one of
the ablest jurists in the state, and a
man of broad learning and large expe
rience.
From all over the state have come
complimentary notices of his candidacy.
So far Floyd county has never been
recognized except in one instance, and
that for a short time, in the supreme
court.
Neither has North Georgia. We are
certainly entitled to representation and
no better man than Judge Joel Bran
ham could be elected to that high po
sition.
The election comes i ' i ff on the third
Wednesday in December, and Judge
Branham’s friends hope to see his hon
ored name among the winners.
