He has made a most excellent record as deputy sheriff for the past four years he is in everj r sens* qua ifie 1 for the office he asks at the hands of the people es Floyd County,and they are sure to acknowledge his merit by giving to him and his dep uties a large majority of the votes of Floyd county on January the 2nd 1895 J. D. Turner, the senitor deputy is widely known and highly appre ciated as a public spirited citizen and a good and faithful officer. He is of, and connected with some of the very best families of this part of the state. He has already made a most efficient deputy and after next Wednesday will contin ue, for two years, to add new hon ors to the office he has so well and capably filled for the last 6 years. Clip Williamson, the Junior Deputy is well and favorbly known all ever the county, but better known in the city of Rome as a strong, progressive and brainy young man. —He has filled with honor and ability every trust he has heretofore been confided with. Ha has served two terms on the City Council, and is at present a member of the School Board of the City, and when elected to the responsible position of Deputy Sheriff will not disappoint his friends. R. L. Foster the hustling, and most fleet-footed of all the candi dates in th* race, ha* astonished th* most sangvine of his friends, at the skill and ability, with whioh he has managed his campaign. He ha* »imply raised a land —slide which will give him one of the largest majorities ever given any young politition of Floyd county. Mr. Foster is the youngest son of the late W. G. Foster of thia coun ty, and nephew of the Hon. J. C. Foster, Chairman of the Board es County Commissioner. He ha* much keen forsight and indomi ta bl* energy of hi* father, and he has made a host of strong* and in fluential friends among all classes of the people by his quiet sensable and gentleman deportment among the masses. He is well qualified to fill the office and will be elected on next Wednesday by an overwhelm ing majority John J. Black the best tax collet tor in the state of Georgia will for th* first time in twenty years have a walk —over for the office. And when w* come t* consider the Sig nal victory he has gained at this ptrticular time, bis elections de mand* more than a passing notice.

Through all of ihe ßß changes and criticism* Mr. Black ba* coolly and euccessfutly carved his way, until he find* him*elf the h*ro of ultimate victory. Mo man bat one of business tack, political skill and a high order of common sei.Be could have gained *o signet victory. And if J. J. Black doe* not hold the < fflee of Tax Collec tor as long as b* wants it, it wii n*t because he dot,* not deserve it. A Voter. Found Under The Show.
