NOEL THE LEADING CANDIDATE.

In travelling to and fro up and
down the state and in other ways We
have come irresistably to the conclu-
sion that E. F. Noel is going to be
in the second primary and we think
will be the leading candidate. 1t
seems to be pretty generally conceded
that some one of the others will have
to fight it out with him in the sec
ond primary. Mr.. Noel is making
a close canvass and seeing a great
many of the voters personally, and
this counts a great deal in such a
fight. There could not be selected
from the half dozen candidates a
mar who would make a better gov
ernor than he will. He is honest to
the limit; he has moral courage to
do what he thinks right regardless
OF the consequences to himself;
there is nothing spectacular about
him; he does not try to attract at
tention and if he is elected no one
doubts that he will make an able
governor. Ashland Southern Advo-
