When large body OF voters once split OF
from political party as a rule, comparatively
few OF them find their way back. Those who
leave party organization are invariably de-
nounced as deserters by their former political
associates the sQrcalIed deserters re.ort In kind
bitter feelings are eDgendered and the breach is
Widened with each canvass. The rea1iusters
IN Virginia when asked 10 return to their old
party allegiance reply that they have been
abused beyond measure and read out OF the
party. The independents or boilers who are
supporting Norwood for governor In Georgia
are receiving yolleys OF criticism and abuse
rom lhe regular party organs, and the prob
aolnty OF their ever returning ga mdsss 10 the
democratic ranks, grows beautifully less each
day The heated political night that is
being waged In that state against the
Norwood men viii make them feel in
the end, that they are not at home In
Tue democratic party. ana next year they Will
perhaps, rally all the dissatisfied elements in
the state around them and take the field again.
IL may be that this present opposition will aIly
Itself with the republican party next year. and
y IS not out OF the question, that republican
ascendancy in Georgia will be thu. restorsd
In Maine the republicans who originally Joined
the greenoackers because OF dissatisfaction
Win republican rule In the state, have been
getting Iarther and farther away from their
former political associates They have been
visited with the severest condem nation Of the
republicans, and al former ties with that
party have been severed II Is not improbable
that this fusion opposition may be united mon
Hancock, and while former democrats NAV he
making republican state OF Georgia former
republicans are doing as much to place Maine
In the democratic column. All signs point tn
