splendid recognition given him by the
speakers in committee appointments
and his wide personal popularity as
three winning factors in tOmorrow's
contest They also point with pride tc
the almost unanimous Endorsement ac-
corded him by the Atlanta bar Of
which he is prominent member.
Everybody seems to be for Bob.

BARTLETT'S MEN

Urgent Appeal Made for Bibb's

eCutive Committee.

MACON. GA, Aug. 20.-The contest
for congress from the Sixth district
between Representative Charles l..
Bartlett, John w. Wise and John r.
Cooper reached its climax today in a
heated newspaper controversy between
Bartlett and Wise. In published fore
cast by the Bartlett executive commit
tee, it is declared that unless Bibb
county goes heavily for Mr. Bartlett his
defeat Is probable, and an urgent APP
peal is made to Macon voters to cast
their ballots for their fellow townsman.
Mr.. Wise has invaded this county and.
through the newspapers, has been con-
Quoting an active campaign Both

office eighteen years and that his rec
