[edit] GA

I'm going to see about checking out the book used in the CongBio as a source to see about a fee items: John Hugh appointed or won election, and the 1914 OSC election. Some say he lost by a single vote in the state-wide (inference being general election), while another clearly said he lost the Republican nom. As to John Hugh, a couple sources (the obit at Salem Pioneer Cem) say he was twice elected. Plus there is more in the Keizer Times article that could be worked in. Then maybe a political career section instead of politics with a sub for Oregon and sub for national, and then a new "later life" or something better for his farming/personal life that was not involving politics.
