Conyers, Ga., June 14th 1888.
It is hard to tell just now what ef¬
fect Mr. Graham’s withdrawal will
have upon the legislative race.
Some see it one way while others
equally gifted in propnetic powers
see it another way. However, the
nomination will decide the matter.
Judge John D. Stewart was re¬
nominated for congress from this
the 5th district, last Wednesday.
His nomination without opposition
is a high honor to a worthy and ef
ficient congressman. He is very
popular with all classes
