We have such a man in W. T.
I Crawford. In him the elements
of greatness and success are
evenly distributed. In the past
thegifted Vance and the lamented
.las. L. Robinson of Macon were
tall men, sun-crowned, who lived
above thefog in ])ublic duty and in
[)rivate thinking, men who were
(,‘ver true to their people and who
in turn v.'ere loved and their
memories revered by the people
they represented so faithfully
and so long. In our judgment
: no man since the days of Vance
! and Robinson has ever stood
I closer to the people among whom
I he lived than W. T. Crawford.
c:andidate. We are anxious to
see this district in tlie democratic
column with a majority of iu)t
less than 1.000. and we believe
that Crawford’s nomination wo'd
})ut it there. We are for the
nominee of the congi’essional con
vention whoever he may be but
that convention should be an
honest ex})ression of the majori
ty of democrats in the district.
To this end \ve urge every demo
crat in this county to attend the
township primaries and see that
each candidate gets the propor
tion of representation that is due
him.
