Roane. of Oxford. announces him
self as candidate for the place.
Nr. Roane Is At present district

Mr.. ROane's candidacy will be
backed by one Of the s.ronges;
endorsements for a similar Office
that was ever presented for CUB
ernatOr.al confederation. II {
large and emphatic endorsement
means anything. then there il no
doubt of the issue. In addition.
L is = weil-known fact that Mr..
Roane stands high in favor at the
State capitol, pre-eninent, in
deed. would be the more proper
word. The city Of Oxford. and
the county Of Lafayette Will back
him to 4 man, and throughout

dOrsemeat-
The iudseship would be the

have come rapidly upon the popu-
lar district attorney Gnring the /
last few years, which have made
him prominent State figure.
These include legal. political and

the forefront of the legal profess
sion OF the State, and established
for him the reputation Of being Z

attorney of brilliant parts and
splendid legal attainments. and
an orator of unusual ability. Es-
IS a cross-examiner he
stands Unexcelled.
Mr. Roane was born to a hertz

ton.
Mr.. Roane has been re-elsct-
ed regularly to the district at
