Col. Estin at Rochelle.

Rochelle New Era: Col j. H. Estir,
candidate for governor, was in Ro-
chelle between trains Tuesday, shak-
ing hands and making new friends and
acquaintances.
Col. Estill made a goood impression
on our people. and his visit, though
short, made for him more friends. He
already had number of warm sup
porters in Rochelle before he came,
and they are more enthusiastic for him
than ever now. Mr.. Estil is an exper-
fenced business man, a fine financier
and an excellent refined gentleman in
every respect. He gave us pleasant
call while here. and we will say right
here he is at least our second choice
for governor, and we wish we could
vote twice. The people admire his
line Of campaigning, and if elected as
Georgia's chief executive she will GER
tainiy be in mighty good hands.

INTERNATIONAL COMMENT.

Forsyth News-Gazette: We believe
that Hon. j. II. Estill, as Governor,
could take better care of the states
finances than any of the other candi-
dates. He knows how to cut down ex-
penses and save money. If anybody
can lower the tax rate he can.

Estill is making less racket and more
votes than any of the gubernatorial
candidates. He is campaigning with
telling effect, and is sure to win

Dublin Courier-Dispatch: The Cou-
r-Dispatch was the first paper in
the state to refer to South Georgia s
candidate for Governor as Private
John Fl. Estill. We make this an
nouncement at the present time be-
cause later there may be a number of
claimants for this honor.

souls with but a single thought.

he goes, and day by day his prospects
