G.E. Thomas We notice that Colonel Grigsby E. Thomas, of Columbus, is being mentioned as a candidate for senator from the counties of Chattahoochee, Marion and Muscogee. Colonel Thomas is one of the most solid and best posted men in our portion of the state and his presence in the Georgia senate would be a public blessing. He is no clap-trap wrangler, but a safe and conservative statesman. He would honor Muscogee in the senate and prove to be one of the best workers in the body. Apart from being a well informed man on all subjects, Colonel Thomas is an accomplished lawyer and elegant gentleman and is always found upon the right side of all public question. We hope he will have a walk-over for the position for which his friends are urging him. He deserves it. – Meriwether Vindicator File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ga/muscogee/newspapers/colgrigs2445nw.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/gafiles/ File size: 1.6 Kb
