WEST IS NAMED SENATOR
APPOINTEE ONE OF BEST KNOWN
MEN OF SOUTHERN
GEORGIA..
Has Been Prominently Identified
With Politics in the State for
Many Years.

Atlanta.-Governo Slaton appointed
William Stanley West Of Valdosta, one
of the best known men in the state,
to fill the unexpired term of the late
Senator A. o. Bacon, whose death oc-
Cured in Washington, February IA.
Governor Slaton did not write any
formal announcement. He merely
walked out into the reception room,
saw that the newspapers were all rep
resented and spoke one word:
"West!"
In an instant the news Travelled
throughout the capitol and was flashed
to all parts of the city and state.
Commenting on the appointment,
Governor Slaton said:
st was only moment ago that l
came to definite decision. Any time
up to five minutes ago | was free to
change my mind. l had told no one
of my intention"
When seen after the statement had
been made at the capitol that the gov
ernor had appointed him, Mr.. West
said:
| 81 have been in Atlanta for several
days, but have not obtruded myself
upon the governor. After the burial
of Senator Bacon my friends not only
from all parts of south Georgia, but
| throughout the state, notified me that
they would present my claims to the
governor. Many of them asked me to
| meet them in Atlanta for a conference
on the situation and I have been here
for a few days with that end in view
William Stanley West, the Oldest
surviving son of James and Mary A
West, is a leading member of the
Lowndes county bar, with residence
and office in the city of Valdosta. He
was born in Marion county, Georgia
