In view of this fact Chicago stands

PRIMARY.
Figuring on Whether or Not They Will
Put Out Ticket for October
Election.

Atlanta. July 9.-The state dem
ocratic executive committee will have
very little campaigning to do this
year
While there are a few hundred pop
ulists scattered throughout the state
WAC still cling to the party, the rem
nant is so insignificant in numbers
that they will not be able to put up
anything like an interesting ight.
They may however. put up candi-
date for governor for the purpose of
holding their party organization to-
gether.
To that end they are now voting by
the referendum for a candidate for
governor and the contest closes Au-
gust l.
The vote is by postal card and was
reported at the time that Chairman
S. j. McNight, of Dalton, of the popu-
list committee. called for the referen-
dun vote
Chairman McNlSnJ claimed a week
or so ago that it looked like they
would poll more postal card votes than
were cast in the late primary.
That was before the vote in the late
primary was tabulated by Chairman
e. r. Brown, of the democratic com
mittee,
There were pollel over 10000 votes
in the late primary so if DR.. Midnight
can beat that with his postal card bal
lot it will show one of two things
either there arc nearly 100000 voters
in the state or else some populists has
voted in the primary are also taking

WEATHER CONDITIONS.
Rain Is Greatly Needed in Many Sec
tiona.

Rain Is Greatly Needed in Many Sec
tons.
The weather bureaus weekly sum-
mary OF crop conditions says:
Rain is mucn needed in the South
Atlantic states, where the week has
been unusually warm, with showers
over limited area only.
Under highly favorable tempera-
lures there mas been a general i'm
proVement in the condition of corn
throughout the central valleys and
the outlook for this crop in the prin-
cipal corn states is encouraging. al
though in tne states of the Missouri
valley it has suffered considerable
from lack of cultivation due to exces-
sive moisture.
In the southern states a very poor
crop is indicated and in portions of
the central gulf districts the early
planted is injured beyond recovery.
With showers over local areas only
and very nigh temperature the cot
ton crop over much of the greater por-
ton of the central and eastern dis
tricts of the cotton belt has materially
deteriorated, especially over the
southern portions of the districts
named although considering the size
of the plant, it is fruiting we'll and is
generally clean. In Tennessee extreme
northern Mississippi, Arkansas, Mis-
ouri, Oklahoma and Indian Territory
the crop continues in promising con
dition, although it is needing cultiva-
ton and making too much weed in
portions of Arkansas In Texas cot
ton shows further Improvement and
is making good, healthy growth, ex-
cept in the southwestern and north
western ounties, wnere 1t is at
standstill. While the plant is small
it is spreading nicely and fruiting sa.
isfactorily, and but few reports OF
shedding and boil weevil are reviewed
Tobacco has made very favora-
bic progress, except in the Carolinas
and Florida, where it is badly in need
of rain.
