IF there is anything in precedent,
the Hon. Joe Terrell is apt to be Geor-

FREDDIE FUNSTON, alleged hero and

The Atlanta papers are probably
wondering why the Charleston exposi
ton didn't lose all attraction for WISH
tors after the Atlanta party returned
home.
CANDIDATE GUERRY appears to
have the better of the Macon Tele-

THE race for state school commits
sioner seems to have developed into
