A TERRELL CAMPAIGN TRICK.

Tickets Sent out with Names of
EstiII and Guerry Ruled Out.
Gainesville, Ga, May 30.-This por-
ton of the state is being flooded with
tickets from Terrell headquarters with
the names of EstilI and Query
scratched therefrom. The tickets are
first printed with the names of all can
didates so as to conform to the official
form and then run through the press
again with a turned rule over the
names of Guerry and Estill. Unless
the Executive Committee of each
county in the state sees that each vot-
ing precinct is supplied with a suffi-
cient quantity of tickets, Estill and
Query may lose many votes, as only
the official form of ballot will be rec
ognized and can be counted.
These Terrell tickets are being sent
principally to the rural districts.
