POLITICS IN GLYNN.
The Division of the Democratic Ranks
Apt to Bring Defeat

hPb W "a LIE ACAO1O-
BRUNSWICK, Ga, Ang. 27.-Glynn
county has four candidates for the legisla-
ture. J. J. Spears was first placed in the
field by the prohibitionists. w. L. Fulton
is the democratic nominee; Joseph Postell,
an independent democrat, and Alexander
Atkinson (colored) the republican.
This race would inevitably elect Atkinson,
aud the proposition was made by Mr.. Full
ton. the regular nominee, for the white
candidates to go before primary and abide
the result.
Mr.. Postell, the independent, acceded to
this, but the prohibitionists will not. They
say the time has come when their principles
must BE- brought out, that before the demo-
cratic nomination they proposed to support
the nominee, provided he was pronouD ced
prchibitionist; that the nominee is not such
a mau. but that the original proposition is
still ppen, and it new nomination can be
made of prohibitionist, they will support
Lin. There is vesy little chance for this,
and the four-slded race will go to the finish
with the result certainly foreshadowed

Fears That the Fight on the Bagging
Trust Will Bring Disaster

ATLANTA, GA, Aug. 27.-The wholesale
merchants at Atlanta and other southern
cities are greatly concerned about the prob
able effect of the cotton bagging trust upon
the business of the south, and the action of
the Farmers Alliance and similar organiza-
lions is viewed with considerable alarm. 1t
is argued that if the farmers maintain the
position they have taken, and refuse
to market their cotton, il will result in the
bankruptcy of tre country merchants who
have advanced money on cotton. This
will, of course, affect the wholesale dealers
who sell to the country merchants, and
they are powerless to prevent it. The only
thing they can do is to try TO persuade the
farmers to change their position, and this
they arc trying to do by circulars, newspa-
papers, interviews, etc.
