THE RALLY POSTPONED.
A JoLLIFICATION TO BE HELD
AFTER THE ELECTION.

The Difficulty in Obtaining Speakers
the Reason for the Abandonment of
Tomorrow Nights Demonstration.
The County scutive Committee 20
Issue an Address to Voters-The
Third Party's Move.
The democratic rally proposed for to-
morrow night is OFF. The failure to secure
the speakers wantei, with the exception of
Hon. Robert Whitfield, caused the abandon
ment Of the programme.
The committee TO arrange for the rally
met yesterday at II o'clock at the office of
W. W. Osborne, Esq, and organized by
electng Alderman r. F. Harmon chairman
aud J. J. Doolan secretary. kilograms
were read from Speaker Crisp, Hon. H. G..
Turner aud Col. Ham stating that
previous engagements in other parts
of the state prevented their acceptance of
the invitation To come 20 Savannah.
Mr.. John r. Young considered the rally
impracttcable under the circumstances and
suggested that the rally be declared of and
instead a Publication be held after the
election. After some discussion this plan
was decided upon, and Chairman Harmon
was authorized to appoint a committee at
his leisure
AN ADDRESS To VOTERS.
The meeting then voted unanimously to
request Vice Chairman Dixon of the demo-
cratic executive committee to get the me:u-
bers Of that body together Monday night
for the purpose Of issuing an address to the
voters, urging full vote Wednesday
The democratic clubs Of the different
districts we're anxious for the rally and re-
ported that the full strength OF each club
would be brought out to attend It, but as
the opportunity will not be afforded them
Monday night the probability is that they
will be given chance to let loose their en-
thusiasm with a torchlight procession later
on, either the latter part Of this week or
early next week.
THE CAMPAIGN GETTING LIVELY.
The campaign is getting lively and the
democratic leaders here have begun active
work to get every vote out IN order to show
that Chatham can be depended upon TO do
her full share of duty when it Is needed.
The officers of the district clubs will call
meetings tomorrow night aud make pre-
parations and lay plans for Wednesdays
election.
The announcement that the republicans
had refused to indorse simmons, Walker
and Cole, the colored candidates for the
legislature, practically leaves the demo-
cratic nominees without opposition, as
much. 1t looks as il he will have TO lead
the forlorn hope alone as no other Wat
sonian disciples have been found willing to
offer themselves on tho altar Of defeat for
the purpose Of proving their loyalty to the
principles of the rainbow chasers."
THEY DON'T TAKE TO IT.
Il is reported that Mr.. Herbs friends have
been working on the colored repu 5licaus of
the Eighth district to get their support, but
one of the leaders who was in the city last
night said the oolorod people Of the Eighth
do not intend to throw their votes away
There was a rumor last night thar an in
dependent would be brought forward cleo
ton day for the legislature, but the gentle
man named never heard of such a move |
nent and would not agree t. it anyhow. |
The rumOr was clearly unfounded aud there !
will be no opposition in democratic quarters |
to the regular nominees, Messrs. Osborne, |
Doolan aud Guerard.
