F" HERBERT CLAY MEETS
WITH GREAT SUCCESS"

Fully 500 voters gathered in front
of Lovelady's hotel in Ball Ground
Thursday night to hear Hon Herbert
Clay. candidate for recollection as So
licitor-General OF the Blue Ridge Cir
cult.
MIR. Clay was introduced by Mr.
Walter Darby i'll a short but appre-
ciatiYe speech
In his address, Mr. Clay made ref
erence tc the issues of the campaign.
and dwelt at length upon the duties
OF Solicitor, as he understood them.
under the oath of the office. Long
and loud applause was heard at
frequent intervals during Mr.. Clay's
speech, asd he held the crowd at
high tension all the time.
The big crowd that heard Mr..
Clay were deeply impressed with
what he said, and it was freely pre-
dicted by the most prominent bust
ness and laboring men of Ball
Ground that Herbert Clay would car
ry that district by vote Of two or
three to one. Others placed the Clay
odds at > to L.
The Solicitor reiterated the state
ment that he had not used his of
flee as money making or grating
machine and that he had tempered
justice with mercy whenever aad
wherever it could be done in accord
ance with the law. Mr.. Clay said
that he had rather help others than
ask for help and that no young man
had ever worn stripes for his first
offense if the Solicitors fee could save
him.
After the speaking, Mr. Clay was
rendered a perfect ovation, the crowd
lingering until near midnight, hold
ing a Clay love-feast. Ball Ground
has always been in the Clay column
and it goes without saying that she
will do her part nobly in the coming
primary.
"Waleska and Salacoa."
Hon. Herbert Clay spoke to a
large audience Tuesday night at Sal
acoa and on Wednesday afternoon he
addressed a big crowd of voters at
the school auditorium in Waleska.
Both crowds were a pleasing sur
prise to the candidate and the en-
thusiasm was at high pitch.
Judging from the reception given
him and the number who pledged
him their support, he will undoubt-
edly carry this section by splendid
majority in the September primary.
Solicitor Clay's speeches at both
pCin.s were wei received and il is
certain tk@t his audiences we're
squarely behind him. Cherokee Ad-
vance.
