NATE PRIMARY WILL OCCUR TOMORROW
the Ballots Throughout Georgia Will Indicate Choice
Voters for and Other State Officials. Interest
Terrell County Centers in Oubernatoral Race.

S. Thornton, L. D. Gay; Third district,
c. M. Harris, w. B. Dismuke.
In Terrell county interest centers in
the race for governor. A conserva-
tive estimate gives Hon. j. M. Terrell
majority of the votes in the county.
His nearest competitor will be Colonel
Dupont Guerry. Mr.. Estill will not
make a very strong race in this coun-
ty.
The friends of Messrs. Guerry and
Terrell have been actively at work for
several weeks past, and both sides are
claiming chat their candidate will
carry the county.
For state school commissioner the
race will be an interesting one.
Messrs. Glenn, Merritt and Johnson
each have many friends in Terrell
who will work actively for their re-
spective candidates.
Hon. o. B. Stevens will get practi-
cally a unanimous vote in this, his
home county, for state commissioner
of agriculture.
For prison commissioner both
Messrs. Eason and Williams have
many firm friends, and the race be-
tween them will probably be close.
The list of democratic executive
committeeman from Terrell county
who are to be voted for was agreed
upon by supporters of Messrs. Query
and Terrell.
This has been the warmest state
campaign in several years, and there
will be many signs OF relief when it is
thing OF the past.

Election Laws.

OPELoOSASS AA.s ys AyOZ.
Mr.. Editor:-It is always source of
pleasure TO read your paper. Its editorials
are frank and fearless. Although Demo
crat among Democrats you possess the
courage to oppose and, If needs be, denounce
unfair methods originating within the party
to which you belong. That is the mission
of journalism, but alas! how few exercise
this prerogative.
Your editorial entitled "The Poll.tax and
the Election Law'' is timely indeed. The
writer while not agreeing with you as to the
payment of the poll tax believing all voters
should cheerfully bear that burden without
complainU is in full accord with that por-
ton which suggests simple registration
law, and election law simpler still
| whereby the elector can exercise the right to
register and vote unhindered !y any of that
red pism now prevailing.
The negro has ceased to he factor in the
body polite. This is undeniably SO in the
South, and more particularly in Louisiana.
Then why not invest all white men with
equal rights in the exercise of the franchise?
Why continue to obstruct the way of your
opponents SO as to make the avenue to the
ballot box almost impassatle as them.
while you pave the way for your adherants
| SO that all distractions are removed.
This is tyrannous and justfes revolution.
And revolution you are going to have unless
| the Democracy ceases to centralize all power
within it's ranks. Its organization is COM
pact and perfect at the present moment,
| you must vote it dictates not vote at
all If elector desires to vote the Demo-
| cratic ticket he finds way to register and
his right to vote is facilitated by the election
officers in violation of the law. If the
contrary he desires to vote in opposition
| thereto, he has 10 run the gauntlet all she
way through, with slim chances of arriving
at the goal.
With white men for opponents. your
peers in every respect, the lists should be
freely opened and the best men win.
! appreciate the fact you feel that way. The
| pity is others feel that way, but they have
| padlocks on their mouths. Failure t" heed
your adce is but adding fuel to- the flames.
| There is going to be an uprising of the peo-
pie. That sentiment is prevalent. Leader
ship is a, present wanting. 1t is going to be
Forthcoming. If your election officers will
but enforce the laws they have sworn to
| obey from now up and including the
general election of 1904, the remedy you
| propose vii! be forthcoming. 81 know of
no method to secure the repeal Of bad or
| obnoxious laws s. elf:ciuil as their strict
| cons ruction.
Yours truly,
GILBERT l.. DUPRE.

One of the trust papers says
that Altgeld was the Danton Of
the Democratic rising of 1896.
The same paper Hkens Bryan
to Robespierre and William J.
Stone to Marat. The capitaliStic
press is unable to see the differ
ence between Bryan, the expo
ent of Republican government,
and Robespierre, the apostle Of
assassination and anarchy.
Funston, the notoriety- seeker of
Kansas, wants to hang every
American citizen who is not in
sympathy with the administra
TONS polocy of determination in
the Philippines. Things have
reached pretty pass when the
man who advocates the simple
Democracy of Franklin and
Jefferson is called JacObin and
the citizen who believes in the
principle that inspired the de-
claration of independence is
charged with treason by Funs-
ton, one of the paid emissaries
of Imperialism. Now that Fun
ston has expressed a desire to
hang all the American citizens
who do not agree with him on
Philippine matters, no one
should be surprised if the cruel
ties are allowed to continue in the
islands. Funston is mayor
general and is no doubt fair
representative of the men this
government is sending to the
Philippines to subjucate the
natives. But it is possible that
Funston would find it bigger
job to hang American citizens
than to assassinate helpless
Filipinos.
