MADE OIL INSPECTOR
For Rome And Cedartown.
Commissioned Yesterday.
Editor Walter S. Coleman,
the hustling young democrat of
Polk, was named as oil inspector
for Rome on yesterday,
This ends a warm contest be
ing waged by a number of prom
inent Romans.
It has been known for weeks
that the Cedartown editor
could have the place for the
asking.
However, the fight waxed
hot for the Romans had enlisted
for the war.
It was reported here that the
appointment would not be made
before the middle of December
and so the candidates hustled.
Friday night Mr. Coleman
was called to Atlanta and yes
terday morning hejwas tendered
the commission which he ac
cepted.
It is understood that Editor
Coleman was not an applicant
for the place, having never asked
for samo.
The Cedartown man is one of
the most popular editors
in the state, being presi
dent of the Weekly Press,
and while he is not a Ro
man he is a North Georgian to
the mountains born—and is a
powerful good hand in pouring
oil on troubled waters.
I f Rome couldn’t get the place,
then Coleman is our first choice.

“We have spent about ten

“We were driven out through
lovely orange groves, and she
carried us over to Winter Park,
a magnificent winter resort, four
miles from Orlando. Our next
