MONROE THOROUGHLY AROUSED.
FORSYTH, July Monroe county is
stirred from center TO circumference as she
hos never been before over the political
situation in local affairs.
There were two candidates for congress in
Monroe for this congressional district, Col.
T. B. Cabaniss and Col. K. L. Berner Both
OF those mon are good democrats and both
very popular. They agreed to leave 1t to
the voters Of the COUNTY in primary cleo

defeated one retiring.
The election was held Saturday and
Cabaniss carried the county by four major
ity. There was much dissatisfaction and
charges of fraud were freely made. Tues
day the executive committee met, and after
stormy sitting presented two reports, a
ajority and a minority one.
The majority of the committee was for
Cabaniss and refused to investigate any
charge of fraud or throw out any illegal
votes. The Berner men claimed TO have
aff1davits of illegal votes aud insisted that
such votes be thrown out. Finally motion
was carried that the gross returns and the
votes of each candidate should be given
without any action on che charges. The
Berner mon were greatly incensed and
withdrew, refusing TO sign the report. They
then submitted q minority report to the
people Of the county.
