ATLANTA, Ga., Oct. 4.
GPHE state election occurred in
George yesterday to elect gov
ernor and state officers and full
u legislature, which elect a sena'
tor In November. Two years ago the
state went Democratic for governor by
$1,000 majority for A. ]. Northen over
w. L. Peck, the Populist nominee. W.
Y. Atkinson Is the Democratic candi
date for governor this year, and j. X,
Hines the Populist nominee. The
election has been closely contested fol
the last two months, and the indica
tions are that the state has polled ar
unusually full vote. larger than two
years ago.
There are 1877 countiss in Georgia,
and returns are coming in slowly, but
there seems to be no doubt that Atkln'
sons majority for governor will be be-
tween 30, 900 and so, 900. The Populist;
have made considerable gains in the
legislature. but not enough to in any
way affect the Democratic control oi
either the senate or the house.
Later reports from all over GeorgiG
show that the Populists have made
gains in almost every county in the
state. and that the Democratic major
ity will probably not be more that 80,
900.
or the one hundred and seventy-fvt
members of the house elected, about
sixty are Populists. and of the forty
four members of the senate are sever
Populists and one Republican. Severa
of the strongest Democratic counties
in the state have been carried by th,
Populists, and with but few exceptions
every county in the state shows Popu
list gains.

largest Democratic majority of am
