each afternoon is increasing daily
Many of the members, during the

links all over the country, but they
are unanimous in the opinion that but
few of them excel their own course in
it's present condition.
Not all the members of the team are
in Savannah yet. but so soon as they
do return Capt. c. w. Saussy will be-
gin active practice with them. 1t is
expected that during the coming sea.
son a large number of matches will be
played with teams from the neighbor-
ing cities. An effort was made to or
ganize a league of the largest cities
in this and neighboring states last
summer, but the movement was not
begun until the season was practical
ly over, so that nothing definite was
accomplished. The matter will be
taken up again, however, in short
time.
Mr.. d. c. Stewart, the professional,
who had the care of the links and the
position of instructor for the new
members last year, will not return for
this season. but another professional,
not yet decided on, will come instead.

NO REST FROM POLITICS.
Candidates and Their Friends Seek
willy Voter in His Lair.


willy Voter in His Lair.
The fact that yesterday was Sunday
and the day of rest did not still the
ardor of the politicians, who are inter
ested, either personally or on behalf of
their friends. in the race for ordinary
of caucuses held during the day. and
many visits were made to individual
voters, from whom support of one or
another of the candidates was asked.
The day, though, was very different
in it's political aspect from those that
preceded 1t. The heated political ar
guments between supporters of con-
tending candidates that have been
hourly in progress, did not of course.
take place on the streets, and in this
respect the day was dull. There was
no meeting of the cohorts of any of
the candidates, and the spellbinders,
for a day, damned up the floods of
their eloquence.
They will break loose afresh to-day,
and during the week there will be
many meetings. For almost every
night between now and Saturday a
meeting has been scheduled, and Grim
nations and determinations, charges
and counter charges, applied by the fol-
lowers of one candidate to the others.
may be expected with confidence, and
will probably be heard with interest,
if not with amusement.
Tomorrow. the rules governing the
primary provide. the candidates who
are to enter it shall deposit with the
acting chairman of the Executive
Committee their pro rata shares of the
expenses of holding the election.
Those expenses consist principally of
advertising and printing, as the rules
further provide that such candidate
shall pay his own managers and his
own clerks. He is entitled to one man
ager and one clerk at each box.
Acting Chairman Alexander is not
in the city, and the amount of the ex-
penses, with the pro rata share of
each candidate, has not been deter
mined. Under the circumstances, the
candidates are uncertain what they
shall do. The probability is that they
will await the return of Mr.. Alexander,
who is expected back on Thursday.
