quiries that have been made at the box
offloe during the past «<ew days. This
unusual interest Is due to the knowledge
that “The band of Nod'' is one of the

SEABORN WRIGHT IN
OFFICE ‘NEVER AGAIN’
Well Known Politician
Says He Will Not Offer
Himself Again For Pub
lic Office.
Special to The Herald.
ATLANTA, Ga.—Hon. Seaborn
Wright, former representative from
Floyd County, In the legislature and
leader of the prohibition forces will
never again offer for public office.
This statement is made on no less
authority than Mr. Wright himself,
who gave It out ip a labor day speech
In his home towg, Rome. “I'Ye quit
running for office and never expect to
offer for election again to anything
else as long as the breath of life is
In me’’ he leclared. The announce
ment of Mr. Wright that he will
never again enter public life will be
received with great Interest through
out Georgia and the south. During
his long career as a law maker and
politician he carried a great influ
ence. In fact it was largely due to
his work in the legislature that the
prohibition was carried. It is not be
lieved that his retirement from pub
lic life can he taken to mean that he
will relinquish his hold on matters
pertaining to the publis welfare. As
someone has remarked, "It would not
be Seab Wright if he did not step
into the breach when the welfare of
his fellow man at stake.” Therefore
he may be expected to still wield a
great influence In Georgia politics.
