GOV. bILbO SAYS
He WAS 'CRUC|F led
ON CROSS OF TICKS"
Defeated Candidate Plans to Voiun-
teer for Service in France.

Poplarville, Miss, Sept. Gov
erner Bilbo, who was beaten in the
run-off for Congress by Judge Paul
Johnson, left Poplarville today for
Mobile, Ala, where he goes to de-
liver an address in response to an in
vitation from mayor and Chamber of
Commerce at a 100 per cent get-to-
gether and cooperation rally Of all
the industrial forces in Mobile. He
said before leaving that he is plann-
ing to volunteer for service in France
in the near future and when he ''gets
through whipping the Germans" he
twill return to his native state and
take up the fight against the enemies
of free, independent and patriotic
government in Mississippi.
When asked if he had any COM
ments to make in the election he said
that for the present he had no state
ment to make, except that he was
"crucifed on the cross of ticks and
politics"
He said he was preparing state
ment to the people of the district
and the entire state.

JUDGE Johnson
WINS IN RACE FOR
u. s. CONGRESS.
Defeats Governor Theodore G. Bilbo
Easily in Second Primary, Total
ing Over 5000 Votes.
MAJORITY OVER 1000 VOTES.
Johnson Carries Every County in Dis
trict Excepting Pearl River,
Gov. BiIbo's Home.

Maintaining proportionately his
long lead obtained in the first pri-
mary an August 20, and even increas-
district, Judge Paul B. Johnson, Of
Hattiesburg, was elected on Tuesday
in the final primary to be Mississippi's
representative in congress from this
Sixth district, defeating Governor
Theodore G. Bilbo, of PoplarvilIe, by
majority of over 1000 votes.
The total vote cast in the district
on Tuesday was approximately 49,
600, as compared with 1864 in the
first primary.
Judge Johnson's friends in his
home town delivered q handsome vote
752 to the Governors 1T. Forrest
gave Johnson 1,094, Bilbo 2O8,
with few small precincts still to be
heard from, which are admittedly
mostly Johnson votes.
AS early os 8 o'clock Tuesday
night, when partial repturns had been
received from twelve counties, Judge
Johnson's election was assured, the
Hattiesburg man showing a lead of
more than two to one, which subse-
puent returns maintained until the
Pearl River county vite reduced the
lead slightly.
Pearl River county, the home Of
Governor Bilbo, was the only county
OF Bilbo's election.
Johnson is Popular.
The popularity Of Judge Johnson, as
evidenced by the vote received in
the first primary, is more strongly
attested by the fact that he is the first
man to defeat Theo. G. Bilbo for
political office, Bilbo having been sue
cessful in all Of his races heretofore,
and was considered invincible by
many.
Judge Paul B. johnson was born 38
years ago in Scott county, Miss, and
spent the early years of his life at
farm work. He was educated in the
schools at EillsboS and Harpesville
and received his law education in Mil
saps College, Jackson.
His father was in bad health sew
eral years before his death and the
support Of the family fell to young
Paul Johnson after their removal to
Hattiesburg. He was noted for his
energy and perseverance and was
elected police judge of the city Of
Hattiesburg when the place was in
tested with blind tigers and bawdy
houses. It is said by his friends that
his fight on these, against powerful
opposition, resulted in almost elimi-
nation the two evils from the city.
His decided aptitude for law en-
forcement caused him to be elected
for circuit Judge. When the time came
for appointment after the judicial
election law had been passed, Judge
Johnson declined to apply to the Civ
ernor for appointment, but bided his
time and ran before the people and
was overwhelming elected.
His reputation as judge, and the
record for fearless enforcement OF
the law, made him popular with the
people as attested in the primary.
