Barnosville Gazette: “Hon. Hewlette
A. Hall, now filling Judge Hart’B un
expired term as Attorney-General, and
a candidate in the coming primary for
the next two years, is one of the ablest
lawyers, purest men and cleanest poll'
ticians—if indeed he may be called a
politician—in the public life of Georgia
to-day. He is a gentleman of unim
peachable character, in private and
public life—is now and has alwayB been
on the right side of moral questions—
and he deserves the nomination in the
present race. It should be the delight
of the people to honor such men with
office.”
Romo Tribune-Herald: “Hon. O. B,
Stevens is a candidate for re-election
as a member of the Railroad Commis
sion, after having completed one full
term. Mr. Stevens is the only farmer
member of the Commission, and is op
posed by a lawyer. There are already
three lawyers in that body, and
seems that the agricultural interests
are entitled to representation. Mr,
Stovens has had experience, has made
a good Commissioner, and there are
mnny strong reasons why he should be
elected. The Tribune-Herald hopes he
will be retained.”
