Independent candidate for congress
against Seaborn Reese. Tom Watson,
that year, was democratic elector and
did his utmost to defeat Judge Twiggs.
The judge came ,wn before the cleo
tlon' A few years later Watson ran for
congress and Twiggs took the stump in
behalf of Major Barnes. Watson allud-
ed to Twiggs as "sour outlaw" and
Tw;ggs challenged him. Watson, who
was making winning race for congress
ia his district, paid 20 attention to
Tw:ggs' challenge and Twiggs wrote
letter 'denouncing' him. The whole
affair had the effect of making Watson's
victory certain. He was nominated and
elected. There was no very good fee ing
after this between Twiggs and Wat
son.
Six years ago Twiggs and Watson met
again. 1t was in the trial of Chas. E.
McGregor who had been arraigned for
the murder of prominent man. The
case attracted great attention. Watson
defended and Twiggs prosecuted. The
latter made vigorous and terrific on
slaught upon the defendant; so much so
that the prisoner interrupted him dur

on trial for my life; give a man some

patted him on the back, and said: ''Nev-

will take care of YOU" McGregor was
acquitted.
Two years ago McGregor was state
senator from his district. He was elect-
ed as populist; in fact he has been a
follower of Tom Watson ever since.
Watson has again achieved legal vic
tory by clearing the Zeiglers in hard

have measured lanoes more than once in

one reason why many of them have not

trlct may have been represented by
men who made grander oratorical dis
plays, we have never had one who was
more keenly alive to the interests of
his constituents than Senator Stevens.
He has been placed on a number of the
most important senatorial committees.
and, although not spread eagle ora
tor, his sound, practical business sense
makes him prominent factor in the
legislation of the state.
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1896-12-09

Hon. 0. B. STEVENS voted against
the bill to elect judges and solicitors
by the people. The gentleman from
the eleventh has long head and US
hits the bulls eye when casting ballot
for the people, but we do lot believe
that his position on this question
meets with the approval of his constit-
uents.
