Was Sworn in by Judge Shelf
field. Gave Big Bond.

Hon. j. A. Laing is now the solicitor
general of the Pataula circuit, having
assumed the duties of the office yester-
day morning.
Mr.. Laing's commission, which is
for four years, arrived several days
ago, and he went down to Arlington

Governor Allen d. Gambler and Secre-
tary of State Phillip Cook, and dates
from January l, 1901. He was required
to give bond to the amount of $4,000,
which he promptly gave.
Mr.. Laing was seen by a NEWS re-
porter shortly after he received his
commission, and he was in excellent
spirits. He said he could not say how
proud of it he was, but that he would
honestly and conscientiously fill the
office to the best of his ability, and
that without disparaging any one who
had filled the position before he hoped
to make such record as would be
credit not only to himself but to the
entire circuit.
The position of solicitor general of
the Pataula circuit is a most import
ant one, and the race for the Office last
spring in which Judge Laing came out
the victor plainly evinced the conf
dence and esteem in which he is held
by the people of the circuit. That he
will make an able and vigilant prose-
cutting officer for the state no one who
knows him doubts. His many friends
are giving him the glad hand, and he
has most excellent reason for being in
the best of humor.
Hon. Jno. r. Irwin, who is succeed
ed by Solicitor Laing, retires after an
incumbency Of six years with the es-
TEEN and respect of every one. AS has
been stated in THE NEWS, Mr.. Irwin
has bought a home in Dawson and will
move here from Fort Gaines and en-
gage in the practice of law. He and
his family are expected to arrive in
Dawson this week.
