MOVEMENT is ON FOOT TO Sc
LEcT THE MUNICIPAL cANDI-
DATES AT A MONSTER MASS
MEETING.
IN THE INTEREST OF HARMONY
AND 1T is CLAIMED THAT THE
TAX PAYERS WILL HAVE A
SHOW.

A we'll defined is on foot by certain
business men in the city who favor
the nomination of the net municipal
ticket by a monster covention of tax
payers to be held in the auditorium.
1t is proposed that this meeting shall
he open to all registered voters and
it is claimed by those who favor the
plan that it will serve to unite the peo-
pie and will do away with a warm
political contest
A we'll known Brunswick business
man was interviewed on the subject
yesterday and said:
Referring to the approaching muni-
cipal campaign it seems the outlook is
taat matters will narrow down to two
candidates and the citizens will have
no choice. but to vote for one or the
other or not vote at all
Why not let us have a monster mass
meeting at the auditorium and let all
the registered voters of the city have
an opportunity to name a candidate.
Such a plan will give fair play to the
voters and fair play to tne candi-
dates
If the Auditorium is used there can
be no packed meeting and mass
meeting of the registered voters shuts
ont no citizen entitled to voice in our
government.
BY this plan our people can all be
brought together and factionalsm un-
Nndled. A platform could be adopted
and the candidates placed on it. pledg-
ed to definite policy instead of
secret club making platforms and
shaping policies the whole people
would have an opportunity to voice
their sentiments and in advance put
the candidates upon notice as to what
the people want. Such mass meet
ing could do no harm and might do
universal good.
Let each candidate be put In nom
ination before the convention and let
the best man win-have no nominal
ing committee to name candidates,
but let your committee be a platform
committee to voice public sentiment
as to what kind of administration is
demanded for the next two years
The people can always be trusted
to do the right thing if they only have
chance to do it-usually the politi-
cians do not permit them the chance.
What we need and what most cities
need is more business and less poll
tics. Wnat better way, what quieter
way what safer way could the pol
itics be disposed Of tnan by all the
people getting together one day and
fixing the politics for two years:

Eastern Democrats Seem to Favor His
Candidacy.
Boston, June 23.-Here in the old
rock-ribbed republican state of Mas
sachusetts the speech of Grover Cleve-
land before the Tllden Club, New
York, is being generally discussed.
TIE general question is what does
it mean? Is it possible that he has
the buzzing of the presidential bee
again or is he one of those patriotic
men who relegates good resolutions
to keep his party, ana by the way,
his friends Olney? There is no
doubt about Olney having great
strength with the democrats of the
north and east and wnen the time
comes it win be seen that he will
carry the democratic convention.
The fact tnat Mr.. Olney says: q
am not candidate" simply means
that ne is and his chances for the
nomination are good, -.
If Olney and Roosevelt are tne can
didates it is safe to say that tne for
mer will win-he is sound man and
would get the votes of many republi-
an business men who are afraid to
trust the rough rider in the White
House again.

an applicant for the judgeship of the
Brunswick circuit to fill the unex-
pred term of Judge Bennett. whose

1t is understood that the Waycross

written a number of letters to the
members of the Brunswick bar and to
others bars in the circuit asking for en-
to his ability, character,

Col. Cochran mas been in Atlanta

appeal to the governor for the APP
pointment
He was formerly a candidate for the

The members of the Brunswick
