PRESS COMMENTS.
The following clipped from the

From The Madisonian.
“The Jones County News, com
menting upon the candidacy of Hon.
i Emerson H. George for Solicitor-
General of the Ocmttlgee circuit,
I has in part the following:
‘Col George is one of the best
I lawyers in the circuit, has a large
i acquaintance in every county there-
I of, and his long experience at the
I bar eminently qualifies him for the'
I position.’ |
if “Quite true. Emerson George is'
■ the man to fill Joe Potlte’s shoes.”
■ From The Georgia Commonwealth.
■ “Hon. Emerson 11. George, of
I Madison has announced for the of
fl fice of Solicitor-General of the Ju-
I dicial circuit from which Judge Pot
fl tie resigned. Judge George is re-
I garded as a lawyer of eminent legal
| ability and one of the strongest in
■ the state. He carrries his con
fl science in his business and political I
fl activities, and will not swerve from!
H what he believes to be right.
fl “Should he be elected Solicitor-
I General LAW will be LAW with
■ him.”
■ From the DeKalb New Era.
“His u.any DeKalb friends note
^w^z^casure the growing strength
Hoi" the candidacy of Hon. Emerson
■lI. George, of Madison, for the of
flfice of Solicitor-General ofthe Oc
flnulgee circuit. Col. George is one
flf the strong lawyers of the state, I
fluid one of the state's best citizens, i
■The better the people know him
She more earnestly they will sup-
Bort him. Indeed, he should be over
flrhelmingly elected.”
Brom The Sylvania Telephone.

Ooi. George is well known in Syi-
Bnia. where he has been at inter-
Bls the guest of Judge E. K. Over- ;

JUDGE COZART OF COLUMBUS '
FOR THE COURT OF APPEALS
Columbus, Ga.—Judge A. W. Cozart
of this city, who is a candidate for
one of the new judgeships on the
state court of appeals, lecently cre
ated by act of the legislature, has been
engaged in the practice of law both
in the state and federal courts for
more than twenty years, and is recog
nized by leading judges and lawyers
all over Georgia as one of the state’s
ablest lawyers.
Judge Cozart’s candidacy has been
endorsed by every member of the
large and able bar of his home city,
and by many local bar associations of
other towns anti cities in Geoi-gia.
Possessing the judicial tempera
ment. he is brilliant without being
erratic; keen, but not narrow: deep
without being obscure, and broad
minded without being shallow. He
knows and follows closely the law, but
at the same time he has a passion
for substantial justice.
Thousands have laughed at his epi
grams, which are as wise as they are
witty. From his occasional addresses
the following are quoted:
“He who is not willing to perspire
need not aspire.’’
“In a moral sense, to beat the devil
you must get ahead of the devil and
run like the devil.”
| “I am glad that I was raised in
। the country. All boys and pigs ought '
to be raised in the countiy.” <

“A home without a child Is like a
world without a satellite, because it
has no bright little one to run around
it.”
He has made many addresses be
fore the Georgia Bar Association am.
the Medical Association, Dental As
sociation, Bankers’ Association an.
Manufacturers’ Association of this
slate, and he is known throughout the
length and breadth of Georgia.
If you have any lawyer friends and
want to know about Judge Cozart,
just ask . them. ।
As an evidence of what Judge Co
zart’s home folks think of him as a
lawyer and a man, we present this
statement made by one of his home
papers, the Columbus Enquirer-Sun,
about him:
"Judge Cozart has practiced law in
our midst for twenty-five years, and,
no matter where you turn, you find
every class respecting him and rely
ing on him. He is thoroughly equip
ped for the grave duties of a mem
ber of this high court. The state and
the bar of the state, in honoring him
as they will do in September, will be
conferring an honor that he merits
and for their consideration in reward
ing a worthy man and lawyer they will
receive from him good work, clear
headed work, lots of work, and that
high-toned service which has always
actuated the men whose lives in af
<er years have been referred to as
those of patriots.”
