Lively Single Shooting Among the
Four Candidates..

MACON, GA, July 2l-The primary
election for three members of the lower
house of the legislature occurred here to-
day, and, considering that there were only
three avowed candidates in the field, was
the liveliest ever held in the county. The
three gentlemen in the race were W. A.
Huff. r. Patterson and S. G. Chambliss.
Mr. Schofied was a candidate for re
election until yesterday, when he openly
withdrew, leaving the field un-
disputed. apparently. After his with
drawal 1t was noised about that he
would tacitly re-enter and contest.
This, springng up suddenly this morning,
created great surprise and scramble en-
sued among friends of the three remaining
candidates, the friends Of each fearing that
their particular candidate was going TO be
the victim. The contest then narrowed to
an individual fight, each one endeavoring
to protect himself. The result was Single
shooting" all day. Mr.. Huff suffered most
because it was charged against him that he
had managed Mr.. Schofeld's movements
and he was made to suffer innocently. All
of the precincts have been heard from
except the Warrior district, and the returns
from there will not be received before
Monday. II will not alter the result, which
stands: Patterson, 9lS; Chambllss, SG3
Huff, GA Schofield, l0S.

Provide safeguards.
The directors of the Tybee beach com
pany have passed resolution instructing
the president to require the keepers of bath
houses and others who furnish conveniences
for visitors who go in the surf, to provide
life lines and other safeguards for bathers.
Such protection will cost but little, and the
comparative safety which they secure to
those who bathe will induce
many to go in the water who
are now afraid to venture. The recent res
cue of Mr.. Isambert illustrates the neces-
ity of having boats, catamarans and life
boats, and an ample supply Of rope. 1t is
to the interest of those who are catering to
the public at Tvbce as well as duty that
they owe to humanity, that ample means
for saving life should ne placed along the
