The delegates elected to represent Ter

following address to the Democratic
voters of the State:
DAWSON, GA, May 18th, 1892. TO
the Democratic voters of Georgia: At a
mass meeting of the Democratic party of
Terrell county, held here on yesterday,
the following resolution was introduced
and was unanimously adopted by ris-
ing vote:
"Resolved, That we present to the
Democratic party of Georgia, for the
Office of Attorney-General, the name of
Hon. j. H. Query. We hereby endorse
him to our fellow Democratsas a man
and as lawyer capable, honest, fearless
and true, and as one who if elected, will
fill the office with credit to himself and
fidelity to the whole people"
The undersigned were elected dele
gates to the August Convention and in
structed to use all honorable means to
secure Judge Juerry's nomination.
We beg to append few facts in refer
ence to the above resolution. South
western Georgia has always, in the face
of tremendous odds, stood ttuo to the
Democratic party, invariably rolling up
large majorites for the party candidates
Our section has been proverbially mod
est in her demands and HIS never asked
that representation, on the State ticket,
which she might have claimed with pro
priety. We have been willing to work
and wait, and we believe our brother
Democrats in other portions of Georgia
viii grant US the request which we
make.
We present for the Office of Attorney
General a gentleman eminent as law
yer, loyal as a Democrat and true to his
| friends. For eight years he served with
marked success and signal ability as So
licitor-General of Pautaula Circuit.
When vacancy occurred on the bench
of the circuit (by the death of the la
mented Judge j. T. Clark, Hon. J. Fl.
Query was elevated to the Judgeship
for the unexpired term. BY the last leg
islature he was elect without opposition
as Judge for the full term, and he now
graces the bench of this cncuit.
In view of the foregoing facts, we
appeal to our democratic brethren all
over the State to unite with us in nomi-
mating and electing Judge Query as At
torney-General, thus giving to our sec
ton her just recognition, and at the
same time furnishing to Georgia legal
adviser thoroughly equipped for the re-
sponsible duties Of the high office. VIII
you not help us?
Trusting that you will accede to our
earnest appeals, we beg to subscribe our
selves your fellow democrats,
A. G. HILL,
WIN. MARTIN,
