JASPER COUNTY, GA.
IS "SOME county,
SAY LATE REPORTS
preston News service)

/ ATLANTA, Ca, Oct. 27-To tell the
truth, Jasper County is some county,
and missionaries can find lots of work
there. Harvey K. Persons, sheriff of
Jasper county, and his brother, w. F.
Persons, we're acquitted of charge
of peonage last Tuesday afternoon in
the United States District Court. The
jury was out only few minutes.
The charge was based on the state
ment of Robert Lee Griggs, Negro,
who asserted that the Persons broth
ers forced him to work on their plan
tation in Jasper county without pay,
threatening his life if he attempted
to escape.
The defendants, it is said, intro
duced testimony to show that they
paid Griggs' fine when he was convict
ed of misdemeanor, and that he agreed
to work until the account had been
squared.

o. ]. Baughn, candidate for the Su-
preme Court, is making good head
way in his race against Henry D. Ross,
according to reports received at Re-
publican state headquarters from
many points. Six years ago Baughn
was defeated by scant 270 votes,
and it is this slight handicap that he
is now endeavoring to overcome with
strong indications of success.
By his able conduct of the office Of
Superior Judge of Pinal county,
Baughn has built a splendid reputa-
ton as well-informed and conscien.
tious jurist. This fact, coupled with
his well-known interest and activities
in behalf of reclamation, has made
him one of the foremost figures Of
