A.O. BlexlockNay Run
for Tom Hudson's Job
Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 17.—Addi¬
tional interest in the coming state
campaign of next year has been
aroused by the rumor that A. O.
Blalock, of Fayette, will be a can¬
didate for commissioner of agri¬
culture to succeed Thomas G. Hud¬
son, who has announced that he
will not be a candidate for re-elec¬
tion. Mr. Blalock is not only one
of the most extensive farmers of
Georgia, but he is president pro
tem of the present senate, and has
been for several years in public
life either as a member of the
house or the senate. He is quite
prominent iD the Sixth congress¬
ional district, and the success of
the Blalock family in their multi¬
farious business enterprises, in
Fayette, Clayton, Monroe, Fulton
and Coweta, gives them a high
rating in local business circles! If
Mr. Blalock should consent to
allow his name to be used in con¬
nection with the vacancy in the
oilice of commissioner of agricul¬
ture, there is no question but that
he will make a strong race.
