THE BRUNSWICK DAILY NEWS. VOLUME 2, NUMBER 153. A SOUTH GEORGIA MAN WILL SUCCEED LUMPKIN THIS SECTION SHOULD HAVE IT Judges Barrow, Turner and Bennet Are Mentioned Atlanta, July 20. —The vacancy upon the supreme court bench created by the death of Justice Lumpkin, will in all probabiliay go to some south Georgia man. ; i Governor Terrell delines to make any statement concerning his prob able action, but from those close to him comes the information that the present indications point to tender the place to either Horn Pope Barrow, judge of the superior court at Savan nah, or Hon. Henry G. Turner of Brooks county former member of congress, or Judge J. W. Bennet, of Brunswick, formerly judge of the us perior court of the Brunswick circuit. That this vacancy will filled by a south Georgian is regarded certain. The reasons which prompt the govern or in confining his consideration of possibilities to that section of the state are found in the present maf j up of the court. South Georgia isnhe only section not now represented. Geographical Make-up of Court. With Chief Justice Simmons from middle Georgia, Justice Pish from southwest Georgia, Justice Lamar from eastern Georgia, Justice Cobb, from north Georgia and Justice Candler from the immediate vicinity of Atlan ta, Governor Terrell feels that—all other things being equal—he sholud first consider the section which, as things stand, has no immediate repre sentative. Of the eminent judges and jurists mbf that particular section, the three ||kien who stand out most prominently Hire Judge Barrow, Judge Turner and Judge Bentaet. It is safe to predict tejhat the tender will be made to one of' ■feiese three. BFrineds of eminent gentlemen re ajgiiding in, other parts of the state who Save talked with Governor Terrell flyith a view, if possible, of asertain fsßg his views have learned two Hiings. that he will make the ap- Wbointment without any unneessary de my.

A gsormer member of the United States gienate, be has in rrecent years devoted Bklmself entirely to the practice of his and to service upon the * superior court bench, where he ha-; -made a magnificent record. He is a i Hum of great ability, preeminen Un qualified for the distinguished hor.ci With which hi* name is now connect •ed. Hon. Henry G. Turner is recognized everywhere a* one of Georgia’s strong est men, his public service, especially . his long career in congress, has been one to reflect the greatest credit not only upon himself, nut upon his State. His mind and his tamper,mien* are essentiality judicial. Nothing Could be more natural than that, in looking for a south Georgian, Governor Terrell should consider him among the firrst. Judge Bennet,, while on the super ior ucort. bench of the Brunswick cir cuit, made a magnifleient record. He also represented Glynn county in the legislature several years ago, and he is considered one of the ablest law yers in the state and is well qualified for the place.

WILL BE BIG MEETING. Many ar* Coming H*r to Discuss High Crosstis Rate, It is very probable that the confer ence to l)e held at, Brunswick on Aug. 1 wil! be largely attended, for the crosstie interest claim they will have to abandon the industry if some mu tual understanding and less rate shall not be adopted, The raillroads claim they advanced the rate ony in order to develop the industry and now that it has grown to such an extent they were losing money by hauling on such a small freight rate basis, It is expected that the joint confer ence will develop some unique features in connection with' the situaaion. In the meantime the lumber people are waiiting to see what the interstaae commerce commission is going to do about that 2 cent rate on lumber The lumber and tie industry in the south seems to be “up a tree.” In Memory of Ingersoll.
