Colonel W 5. West, of Valdosta, for
fourteen years a member of the legis-
lature continuously, and for one term
the president of the senate, is enjoy
ing a short visit to Atlanta
Colonel West does not come to At
lanta often nowadays-not nearly so
often as he did in the days when he
played the political game strenuously,
and took much active interest in it.
Colonel West was the first man TO
break the hoodoo that heretofore had
pursued every member Of the legisla-
ture from Lowndes Up to the time
West served his second term. no man
ever had served two consecutive terms
from that county 1t had always been
a case of election this time and de-
feat next time.
West changed that order of things,
however-he came just so long as he
would agree to come.
The former president of the senate is
one of south Georgia's wealthiest and
most prominent men He has beer
suggested time and again, for govern
or-and il may be that he yet will have
a try for that office. He loves politics
he admits that frankly. He has the
nerve to enter a gubernatoria race
and the ability to take care of him
self anywhere at any time
He would make an ideal south Geor.
gia candidate-and he would be backed
to an everlasting finish by south Geor-
gia. too, if ever he should agree to
run!
