The two or three Sound district leaders who have been here this week seemed of the opinion that Luke was in the lead for Congress. Possibly those who came along this week may take the other view, but rigOit now they have got the cnpitol to talking Luke with the well grounded impression that the race is o between Luke and Judge Frank Park L of Worth. This is the only political race of the year of statewide interest, and it is being closely watched. Judge Covington of Colquitt may he get ting in some hard work, blit little Is heard of him here. Visitors from the Second are all talking Luke or Park. Tho candidates have only about two weeks more in which to make' their canvass as the election will take place November 5th. A prominent gentleman of Thoniasville, who was here last week declared there was no question about Luke’s winning. He said he had been pretty well over the district, and that he spoke from observation and not from prejudice. "I have just been in Decatur,’' he said, “and from all 1 can hear, Luke Is sure to carry that county. Some of those who are opposed to Luke went so far as to concede to me that he would get the county. I have equally strong reports for Luke from other counties in which I have made careful inquiry. “The candidates and their friends are all busy, and there is little doubt that the fight will bo carried on ri-’ht the end of election day.’ ’ Hereafter persons sending parcel post packages will have to l ay more attention to the packing or wrap ping of the articles than they have heretofore, according to instrue AIM BEVERLY Ilf POLICE COURT New Evolutive Rend %>f City Govern ment Makes Offenders Sorry They Broke the Law*.

JOURNAL OF LABOR, October 10, 1913: — We note from the daily press that there is a race on in the Second Congressional district for the seat in Congress made va- cant by the death of Mr. Roddenbery. We have no desire to take any part In this race, but common justice prompts us to say that Mr. Covington while a member of the Georgia Legislature, was friendly to the measures presented by organized labor. This was particularly manifested in his fight for the factory people and the factory child. His argument before the committee having in charge the child labor measure was one 0? the strongest and best ever made In the interest of that humane law*. The Journal of Labor makes this statement in justice to Mr,* Covington, not knowing whether in this particularly race it will be for or against his Interest. Judge Covington is a hold, fearless man, and on labor measures did no hedging or trimming.

October 10, 1913: The Herald believes the Second Congressional District should send Judge Covington, of Moultrie, to Washington, as Hoddenbcry’s successor. The fact re mains that he Is one ot the eleauest and ablest men in Georgia, .if tho rood people of our houie district know what Is best for them, they will drop all prejudice and grudges and send Judge Covington to Congress. We predict his election, anyway, and we expect to see him become one of tho strongest and most popular members of tin- and most popular member of the Georgia delegation. XI11Y KIM, Iterator, Georgia. October 9, 1 !• 13: Judge W. A. Covington, he of the rosy whiskers and resonant mice, has an nounced that he Is a candidate for Congress to succeed the late Judge ltoddenhery. 1 -on Covington Is some stuff and If elected, his district will have reason to he proud of her representative. CAItTKILSVIlXK THIBUNK, October 9, 1913: Judge W. A. Cov ington, who wap reaped at Waleska, in Cherokee County, and who Is weli known In Cartersville, has announced for Congress, to suc ceed the late Congressman Roddenbery. Mr. Covington Is well known all over Georgia and Is an orator who Is to )ie reckoned with when the issue Is one which must he decided before tho people. Should the Second District he *o fortunate as to send Judge Coving ton to Congress they will ha/e a man who will make his mark and rank along with the greatly beloved Charlie Crisp. (M'lM/A STAR, October 10,1913: With tile entry of Judge Park Into the race for Congress, and Hon. Hoscoe Duke and Judge W. A. Covington already running, things aro beginning to pick up In the Second. We don’t know so much about the other two, but we know that if they select Covington, they will have a good man. TIKTON GAZKTTK, October 10, 1913: Judge W. A.

Judge Covington has been looked upon no suitable congressional timber fur a number of years and Is one of the best known men in the District, and an orator of national reputation, lie made Democratic party campaign speeches last year til the middle West, and spoke for the cause of prohibition ln many of the states of tile union. Ills entry adds considerable zest io the contest and his friends are sure that lie will make It interesting for Ills opponents. Cl'THBKItT LKADKI1.

Judge Covington Js a high-toned Christian gentleman, of recog nized ability as a lawyer and debater, and will make a representative in Congress that the people ln Iho state would ho proud of. We are saying nothing about the other candidates, but hope they will elect Judge Covington.

Of course, from each political camp comes "certain information," that Us candidate will win. The Pavo end of Thomas County, It is believed, will go to Cov ington. Duke will carry the West end. Over towards Bainbridge, the race, it Is believed, will be more between Park and Luke. In the east end of the district, Covington will lead, with Luke second. It fs believed. With all three of the candidates drawing about the same amount of support from the norlh end. If tho Covington tones can get out the vote In the East end of the District, good and strong, and tho other candidates do not have BU>b good luck in their strongholds, Covington will win.
