Transcription
The entry, read from the image (line breaks not kept):
J. O. Webb, Waverly, Chambers county.
The article's opening and the heading are outside the clipped region; from the Library's page text (OCR, checked only for sense): "Following is a list of all state and federal officers to be voted on in the Alabama Democratic primary election August 10. Also listed are the names of candidates for State Executive committeemen." The list runs through the United States Senate, Congress, the state offices and the circuit solicitors, then "Representatives in State Legislature", one name to an entry with town and county, continuing after an advertisement into the column where this entry stands (the edge of the heading "…e Legislature" shows at the left of the image); the State Senate candidates follow, by district, further down the page.
