George Warren should be promoted to" this (.' important post. His speech was a revelation to our people, proving him easily capable of taking most excellent care of himself, and quite able to handle the most astute speaker that might be waiting for him in the Upper House in Washington. Warren is clean and gifted, and entirely worthy of the confidence and full support of all our people. We believe South Carolina is going to vote on August 31st just as we feel Edgefield county j will vote?by casting a decidedly significant majority for George Warren. ?Edgefield Chronicle. | Graduate of Clemson College in Class of *906 Member House of Representatives *9*3 to *9*6 Elected and Resigned as Circuit Judge 1916 Endorsed for United States Senator by the Democratic i Conventions of Allendale, Jasper and Hampton i Counties in May, *920.
