CONYERS, GA., SATURDAY, NOV. 19 , 1898.
In the political race, almost
any politician is satisfied if he
only succeeds in getting a place.
When a man has greatness
ifintst upon him. it doesn’t us¬
ually take him very Jong to get
rid of it.
Some politicians who claim to
he self-made, were evidently in
terupted before the job was
pleted.
Very few public men would
be willing to be taken at
publicly expressed estimation
of themstdves,
Some men vote as they pray
, and they never pray unless it is
| to ask a favor.
Congressman Livingston’s de¬
nial of the fake story that he
had announced for the State to
succeed Senator Bacon was pub
lished the other day after the
apperance of the fake. Never¬
theless the original story is re¬
ceiving serious consideration by
a considerable proportion of the
weekly press. Thus, without
being a candidate, Congressman
Livingston is enabled to feel the
puEo of the weekly press upon
a possible candidacy.—Ex,
