MI. Turner Understands tho Seriousness of

for Work-Othcr State Politics

Waycross. Ga, October 17.--(Special)-
Politics have been very quiet in the eiev
| enth congressional district since the recen
state election, and for two weeks the lul
| mas been such to make the people almos
| forget that 4 congressional campaign is IL
| progress.
1t is necessary that there should be re
| yivai OF interest, ana it seems that AIR
| Turner has concluded TO devote the next
| two weeks entirely to home matters, ieav.
ing his senatorial candidacy to take care
of ITSELF
The truth Of the matter Is there seems to
be some trouble at home. While the demo
Gratis have not been active during the past
two weeks the p0pulists have not slept Il
minute. Emboldened by theig recent gains
they put ON foot an active canvass in the
eleventh district, ana whether il amounts
to anything or not. it has already had the
effect of brinaln" Mr.. Turner home and di-
Verting his active attention from his sena-
torial candidacy
Democratic Decentralization.
Ordinarily the democrats would have no
trouble in this district, but unfortunately
there is considerable. disaffection and recent
events have tended to widen the breach in
stead OF harmoni2ing things. IN Brunswick.
Tor instance, a most vigorous campaign for
county offices is i'm progress and Glyna
county is in doubt. The democrats there
have Just been brought to n full realiza ton
OF the situation, and have concluded that
unless active work is put ON foot immediate
~ that Glynn's democratic majority will de-
vclop into minority at the next election
Mr. Turner has been sent for to make an
other visit to Glynn. and he viii soon do SO,
but il is doubtful if his personal activity in
mat county win have The desired effect, be
cause things are not serene there.

Glynn county and the trouble arises chiefly
over the fact that a great many repub'i-

postmaster for instance, is filled by Mr. Il.
Med. Brown, and it has been four years
and half since the democrats of Bruins |
wick have had the pleasure of LOOKING upon

publican hands for four years the democrats
