NEsBITT FOR SENATOR.
Commissioner of Agriculture NOmi-
mated at Atlanta.

Commissioner of Agriculture NOmi-
mated at Atlanta.
Atlanta, Ga, June 17.-After six-days'
deadlock, during which over 5000 ballots
were taken and innumerable resolutions
offered and discussed. the senatorial con-
vention of the Thirty-ffth district this
afternoon succeeded in making nominal
ton and adjourned sine die.
The choice of the convention was Hon
r. T. Nesbitt of Cobb county, the present
state commissioner of agriculture
Col. Nesbitt was selected over J. E.
Mosely of Cobb county, for whom the del
egates had been instructed, without his
knowledge. He was in no sense a candi-
date, and made no effort whatever to get
the nomination.
After being formally notified of the ac-
ton of the convention, Col. Nesbitt asked
until tomorrow TO consider ii.
There is every reason to believe that he
will accept.
Fulton county, which had half the votes
of the convention would not accept Mr.
Mosely, because his record In the lower
house has shown him to be on the wrong
side of several important questions in
which the city of Atlanta was vitality in
terested. He was charged with being
narrow-minded and prejudiced against this
city.
Fulton also made fight on the rotation
system and succeeded in having passed a
set of resolutions pledging a revision of
this system, by which Fulton will have
the senator twice in succession, after
which Cobb viii name him and then Clay
ton
Col Nesbitt' nomination will give perfect
satisfaction to Atlanta, as well as to the
people of the other counties, because he is
a broadminded, able man.
