GRADY - ..... “When . every farmer in the f \!i shall eat bread from his ! Mvn fields aid meat from his c \vn pan'.uie, and disturbed by no oredid r and enslaved by no j delft, shall sit amid his teeming gardens and orchards and vine | yards and dairies and barn yards, pitching his crops in his own wisdom and growing them in independence, making cot ton his clean surplus, and scl ! ling il in Ids own time, and in 1 is chosen market, and not at a master’s bidding—getting his p >y ’n cash and not in a receipt ed mortgage that discharges his debt, but does not restore his freedom —then shall be the breaking of the fullness of our day.” NORTHERN CIRCUIT POLITICAL HISTORY In view of the fact that it is being stated that A. S. Skelton Esq., is the only person in the history of the pol itics of tht Northern Judicial Cir cuit to ask for re-election to the of fice of Solicitor General for a third term, the following certificate of thhh Clerk of the Superior Court of Ogle thorpe County is submitted to the voters of the circuit for their infor mation: State of Georgia, Oglethorpe Coun ty—Office of the Clerk of the Su perior Court. I. J. B. Stokeley, Clerk of the Superior Court in and for said county of Oglethorpe, state of Georgia, do hereby ctrtify that the Criminal Docket and the Min utes of this court show that Hon, Wm. M. Howard began his service as Solicitor General in said Court at the Tegular April term, 1885 and served continuously until, but not including the April term, 1897, of said court, being 12 years con tinuous servine as Solicitor Gener al of the Northern Circuit. Witness my official signature and the seal of said Court hereto affixed, this 17th day of July, 1924 Seal. J. B. Stokeley, Clerk Sup. Court It will he seen fiom the foregoing Court records that A. S. Skelton, the present Solicitor General of the Northern Circuit is not the first to offer for re-election to this office for a third term as has been stated but that his candidacy finds precedent in the election of Mr. Howard for three successive terms of four years each. In fact, Mr. Skelton’s eight years experience better qualifies him for the office than if! be had not had the exptrience. It makes no difference from what particular county a candidate comes / so long as he is rendering reasona ble service; it is not being urged that Mr. Skelton has not made a fair and faithful officer. The good old county of Franklin has in lftcent years been signally honored bv Wiving its native son, the beloved Hon. Samuel J. Tribble, who passed away a few years ago, serve as Solicitor Genera! of the circuit to which Franklin belonged, and later for four consecutive terms in Congress. But be that as it may, the ptople are more interested in the selection of officials who have experitnea gain ed from service than in the gratifica tion of personal political ambitions. Experience in business counts; this is true in tht discharge of the duties of public office. (Advertisement) 77f Number
