THE POT BEGINS TO BOIL.

The Municipal Election win Be a. Inter
esting as Usual.
The present indications are that the
municipal. primary in November will be
as lively as any of its predecessors, and
it will no doubt be as stubbornly con-
tested.

the present incumbent, DR.. W. B. Cheat
ham and Mr.. j. w. F. Lowrey, while
there are four applicants for the three
vacancies on the aldermanic board. Mr..

Dean and Judge J. M. Simmons. Messrs.
Jennings and Dean are members Of
the present board. Mr.. r. L. Saville,
the city treasurer, is uuopposed for re-
election.
Ropes will be put up and no one but
the voter will be allowed to approach
nearer than 20 feet to the polling place
Registration is lively and the large
number of voters who are qualified to
participate in the primary give
additional promise of a lively election.
The registration books will close at 6
o'clock P. M. November 3rd.
There will probably be lively contest
for the clerks place. Besides Mr.. G. ].
Whitehead, the present clerk, the follow.
ing gentlemen will probably be in the

The bill that will be introduced in the
general assembly establishing citv
court for Terrell county has been per-
fected, and will probably be one of the
fist measures presented to the law max
ers for their consideration.
The bill as drawn provides that the
judge shall receive salary of 5000

the sheriff, the jurors and the bailiffs.
No appeal can be made to the superior
court, all appeals being directly to the
supreme court, and parties accused of
misdemeanors cannot demand indictment
by the grand jury.
1t is thought by those who are behind
the movement that city court would
save the county not less than $4,000 a
year.
The NEWS will give full synopsis of
the bill next week.

VISIT OF THE LUMBERMEN.
They VIII Arrive in savannah To-
day by Special Train.

The Savannah lumbermen have complet-
ed arrangements for receiving the Union
Association of Lumber Dealers of Ohio and
neighboring states, who will reach
the city in their special by the
Plant System at O'Clock this afternoon.
The reception committee of the local
lumbermen, a Est of whom appeared in
the Morning News yesterday, will meet
the party at the train and extend them
the courtesies of the city. A pretty lit
tie souvenir has been prepared for distri-
button among the visitors, on which ap-
pears a list of the interesting points for
sight-seers, as well as other data concern
ing Savannah and surroundings. These
souvenirs will be handed the visitors on
arriving, after which the party will be
escorted to the De Soto, to remain until
1:3O O'Clock tomorrow, at which time the
reception committee will take formal
charge and entertain them during the re.
mainder of the day
The visitors will not be alone at the ho-
tel this evening, however. While the en-
tertainment committee will not take for
NAL charge of the party until morning.
still they will doubtless receive calls from
prominent citizens, including the Mayor
and other city officials, who will make the
evening a pleasant one.
Leaving the Liberty street entrance to
the De Soto at 1880 o'clock the trip to
Tybee will be made. Just when the party
Will return is not fixed, for the reason
the entertainment committee intend this
to be governed by the circumstances. the
train carrying the party will be special
so that the return will be made at pleas
ure. 1t is thought the trip to the beach,
accompanied by its numerous pleasures
which are more enjoyed by those residing
in the interior, will be the most pleasant
feature of the entertainment that will be
extended the visitors.
For a time the committee thought of a
drive over the city tomorrow mornins
but as this would confine the large party
and keep some from visiting places which
might interest them more than the sights
embraced by drive, this feature was
abandoned. Judging from the manner the
committee are working, and notably Mr.
William B. Stilwell, the chairman there
is no question but the visitors will leave
Savannah having received a good impress
sion of the city's unbounded hospitality
While in Savannah the party will like
ly remain at the hotel notwithstanding
everything is elegantly fitted out for their
convenience in the special on which they
travel. Hotel fare will come rather in the
shape of en- innovation on account of the
confinement in the cars and having to be
satisfied with a naturally monotonous fare
Their trip further South will comprise a
visit TO the principal cities and watering
places of Florida

A short Staircase Only Remains to
BE Put in the Public Building.
The work Of Messrs. Miles & Bradt on
the new public building has been eomplet-
ed, with the exception of the staircase in
the tower. the iron for which has not vet
arrived.
With the exception of $1,000 or $1,000, all
of the money has been paid the contrac-
tors outside of the 10 per cent. held by the
government until the work has been Off
cially accepted.
The staircase in the tower cannot be put
in for some days yet, but there is no delay
on the part of the contractors, as they are
entitled to time up to the middle of the
month, owing to delays for which they
have not been respons. BILE. There is moth
ing whatever to hinder work being done
at once on the interior Of the building.
1t is understood, however, that the plans
for the interior work VIII not be ready UNI
Ill about March l. and it will take thirty
days after that time to get bids on that
work and award contract.
1t is expected that an inspector will
come down very shortly to pass upon the
work done by the contractors, and that an
official acceptance of it will shortly fol-
low.
