ELEVENTH DISTRICT poruLrsT,
They Held "A Caucus Thursday at
WaycrOss.

Waycross, Ga, March 21.-The populists
of the Eleventh Congressional district
have been holding quite meetings in the
various counties since Jan. /, and yester-
day delegates from the different coun-
ties met here in secret session. Just
what was done or even any intimation
thereof could not be ascertained by the
representatives of the press, as the meet
ing was held behind closed doors.
The populists of South Georgia have
given n0t prominence to their plans dur
ing the last few months, and they appear
to be concealing their intentions with re-
spect to the nominating of candidates.
S. l.. Bishop, who was until this year
the recognized leader of the party in this
district, has announced his retirement
from politics, and now the public is at
loss to know the name of his sue
cessor. T. II. Morton, ST., and j. T.. But
and aggressive men in the party, and
the SuppoSitiOn is that either the one
or the other of these gentlemen is di-
recting the policy of the party in this
ulists in the district are DR.. johnson of
Appling county, who was the party's
nominee in the last congressional cam
paign against Capt. Turner, and DIR. Mat
tox of bonneville, who was Mr.. Tur-
nerS opponent in the previous campaign
Whether the party will see fit to put
one of these gentlemen in the field this
year against Mr.. Turner is not known
outside of the ranks, but the impression
among the democrats is that neither
DR.. johnson nor DR.. Mattox will consent
to enter the race again, as they have
not recovered from their former defeat
A populist ticket will probably be put in
the field this year in this county, but as
the county is overwhelmingly democrat
ic, they will not fare any better than
they did formerly.
