MANY OFFICES GO
TO P|TTSYLVAN|A
Two Men From That County
Have Held Long Series of
Positions.

Pittsylvana county, whence comes
the more or less filthy weed, seems to
have had her full share of honors
during the past two decades. The re-
cent appointment of Claude a. swan.
son to be United States Senator is
reminder of the political positions
which have gone to that county.
one might argue, were only the Of
fees considered. that the county is one
which produces great men, and is en-
titled to recognition on that ground,
But while there is no doubt that she
has her share of that kind. it viii
be seen on analysis that two men
have divided these honors between
them-Claude A. Swanson and Andrew
jackson Montague.
For six terms Mr.. Swanson was the
Representative of the Fifth Distric,
In Congress. Time after time he was
chosen, and at last there was no use
IN any one running against him. He
had hardly begun his political career
when Mr.. Montague appeared and took
hand at public affairs.
Held Federal Office.
With the election of Grover Cleve-
/, land for his last term, Andrew Jack
son Montague was appointed United
States Assistant District Attorney. His
administration of the affairs of the
office brought him into such promi-
nence that he secured the nomination
for Attorney General of Virginia in
1897. and was, of course. elected.
Some time prior to the conclusion
of Governor Tyler's term. Congress-
man Swanson had announced himself
as a candidate for the governorship.
Then Attorney General Montague en-
tered the race. bringing on one of the
warmest campaigns in the modern
history Of Virginia. 1t will be seen
that Pittsylvania was bound to have
the Governor, In any event.
Montague became Governor and
Swanson went on going to Congress.
Four years passed, and the Congress
man made another fight. Governor
Montague made try for the United
States Senate to succeed Senator Mar
tin. Thus two Pittsylvanians We're
again in the race for the two high
est offices within the gift of the peo-
pie One of them was successful. and
the other stent d!awn in defeat for the
first time. >"
For eight years Pittsylvania men sat
In the gubernatorial chair and dwell
in the Executive Mansion. Governor
Swanson had retired from Office but
n few months, when called upon to
take the place of Daniel in the United
States Senate. Evidently Pittsylvanif
cannot be lost.
There may be somewhat in the flu
ture for either or both of these men
But this is not a prophecy. 1t is {
history.
