Editor Searcy Endor
ses Blood worth
for Congress.
Mr. W. E. H. Searcy, who has
for a long time been the official
stenographer of the Flint Circuit,
of which Hon. O. H. B. Bloodworth
is Solicitor General, thus speaks of
Mr. Bloodworth in an editorial in
his paper, “The Middle Georgia
Farmer
“Hon. O. H, B. Bloodworth An
nounces for Congress.
We have been closely associated
with Col. Bloodworth for the past
twelve years, and have never seen
him do a wrongful or sinful act.
That is saying a great deal, but we
believe a good man should hear a
word of approval sometimes and
not wait until he is dead to send
flowers to bedeck his bier.
Col. Bloodworth is a fine lawyer,
a graduate of the State University
and is capable of representing the
District in Congress. See his an
nouncement elsewhere in this
paper.”
Sirs. A. R. Scott is visiting in
Atlanta this week.
