POLITICAL BEES BUZZTyC.
Some GCOTgillS Who Nay be Senator's
or Governor,

Have Not Been Announced bat They
Have Been Suggested and Talked Of
Prominently A Democratic Rally
On For August.
In spite Of thcfact that GeorEia's gu
bernatorial AID senatorial elections are
quite a distance on political bees have
begun to hum. and the erstwhile neutral
elements are beginning to crlstallizc, each
about It's own attracting nucleus.
Ii may be a long time before the cam
paign is actually on. but it has already
begun in that quiet suggestive way in
which the friends of some well-known
politician urge him to enter the field, or
the candidate himself quietly drops a
pointer to some friend with the iniunc-
ton Of secrecy. which friend lets some
newspaper man get hold Of
it with the same iniuuctions, and thus
the unwilling candidate gets announced
without his knowledge or consent. The
campaign is thus opened up carly by ran
dom talk which later crystallizes along
well settled lines in the survival Of the
fttest in the political struggle.
1t is sometimes one Of the yanitics Of
the politician to see his name mentioned
oe n candidate and 70 t,no,y that he is at
least possibility The prematurity of
the announcement is immaterial lit will be
known during the campaign that he was
considered.

be given for Quiet campai-ning and
determination Of the backing which can
he assured to each before active opera
lions are begun upOu the international
ficla. The only question is, which Of them
can ret the most votes, Here are the
possible governors:
First. there is Col. Jas. H. Blomt of
Macon. who was scnt as special commits
sioner to the Hawaiian Islands and who
might have remained there as minister
He saw lit TO resign. however and per-
hans at the time he had an eye on the
goyerporship II is said that he is com
inc back from Hawaii to make the
race as the administration candidate
that he will stand on Mr. CIeveland's
financial platform and that he will re-
ceive the backing of Secretary of the In
terror Smith. Ofcourse nothing will be
definitely determined however. with re-
gard to Col BlOunt's plans until he re
turns and looks over the field.
Then there is Hon. A. S. CLAY. of Cobb
county, who has been talked of quite ex-
tensively as a possibility and his can
didacv has been nut down as decidedly
probable. MIR. CLAW is at present presi-
dent of the state senate. and in 1SSS-'S9
was speaker of the house.
