Jackson Herald: Many of the news
papers in North Georgia are support
ing Editor Estin for Governor.
Statesboro News: Estill never plow-
ed red mule like Terrell nor a grey
horse like Query, because he was not
able to own one: but he is riding a
fast horse now, in the Governors race

Sandersville Herald: The Herald
rises to protest We have long ac-
knowledged a leaning towards the gall
liant South Georgia candidate for Gov
ernor but if Col. Estills admirable
News persists in crediting our pet
neighbor, we shall have to vote for
one of the other fellows.
Douglasville New South: South Geor-
gia is crystallizing on Estill, and when
Query and Smith take their allotment
of Middle and North Georgia Terrell
will not find himself in such fine con-
dition to sweep the nominating con-
vention. Estill is going to show up
with a fine hand. If he doesn't have
South Georgia solidly behind him, he
will have enough from the upper coun-
ties to make up for the difference.
Augusta Chronicle: With Pleasant
Stovall as a representative in the Leg
islature. Chatham county would have
cause for congratulation.
Augusta Herald: Terrell doesn't
have to look after Query these days.
Bob Berner is doing that just now.
GAINESVILLE News-Gazette: We be-
lieve that Hon. j. H. Estill, as Gov
ernor. could take better care of the
states finances than any of the other
! candidates. He knows how to cut
down expenses and save money. If
anybody can lower the tax rate he can.

have not shown a great deal of inter

Miami Metropolis: For the past four
years Dade county has held an annual
fair, and through the untiring efforts
of Secretary Blackman, who has work
ed early and late. has success been at
tanned, and also through the liberal
donations of the land department OF
the Florida East Coast Railway. Each
year has witnessed an increased inter-
est in the exhibits and the number and
variety has excelled that of each pre-
vious season, and this seasons exhibit
is no exception to the rule. Last year
the fair was held in the old opera
house. now occupied by Carroll & Clark
as a bicycle store and repair shop,
while this season the tent used is 75X
$50 feet, over twice the space of last
year, and even with this increased
space there is no room to spare.

Let's Have a white primary.

Tattnall Journal: We have been a
resident of Tattnall for six years or
more, and during all those years we
nave thought a primary the proper
thlng for the people of our grand cid
county. and two years ago the Journal
in modest way agitated the question
OF a white primary in Tattnall. but
those who ruled and engineered" the
politics of the county declared that they
were against such an idea, and declared
such course would ruin the county.
and that all of our county officers must
be nominated by convention. The
Journal being no politician and with
no ak to grind, we stood pat. and the
convention was called as usual, and
the candidates nominated from cor
oner to representative. What was the
result? 1t was unsatisfactory, not only
to the voters, but to many of the gem
tlemen who aspired to office
For the past two weeks we have been
feeling the pulse of the best citizens of
the county on the question of a white
primary this year. and have received
overwhelming evidence that a primary
nomination is desired by two thirds
of the people of Tattnall county. This
being true. we will say right here that
you can put the Journal on record as
favoring white primary this year for

Sorghum as a Forage Plant for the
south.

Many of the grasses and clovers
which constitute the mainstay of ag-
riculture in the North and West are
very uncertain in large areas in the
South, says Prof Duggar, in American
Agriculturalist. Most prominent among
out forage plants adapted to every va
riety of Southern soils are sorghum,
cowpeas and Bermuda grass. Small
areas of sorghum are grown in prob
ably every county in the South, but
there is room for a forty-fold increase
in the acreage. When grown for the
syrup it has the advantage over sugar
cane of affording human food at a
much earlier date.
When grown as forage it has import

BOY KILLED IN A sAwMILL.

Cedartown Standard: a terrible ac-
cident occurred Thursday afternoon at
the saw mill of Mr.. ]. E. Wilson, three
miles south of town. VIII Blalock, a
white boy about 16 years of age,
who was employed at the mill, slipped
and fell. He threw out his hand in
falling, and struck it on the saw, which
caught his hand and jerked his body
over on to its teeth. He was very bad
" mangled, but lived about an hour
after the awful occurrence, when
death came as a relief to his suffer-
ings His remains were laid to rest

THE STATE PRIMARY.

Macon News: Much has been said
and written the past few weeks with
reference to the time of holding the
state primary in the various counties,
for nominating state and county Off
Gals, and the News is prepared to saw
that large majority of the newspa-
pers of the state and large ma jority

large part of which has been favorab BILE
10 primary in July or August Hon.
Dupont Query of this city another
of the candidates for the Democratic
gubernatorial nomination, has asked
as citizen, that the primary be called
during the month of August Mr.. Ter
rell, the other candidate for the gov
ernorship, has not, so far as we have
been Informed, expressed publicly, or
otherwise, an opinion as to when the
primary should be called, but it has
been often stated by others that Mr..
AeIIei ldNOfS an early primary.
There is no question but that a pri-
mary in July or August would enable
more people in this state to vote for
their choice for the governorship, and
Tor the other offices to be filled than a
primary held at an earlier date, or dur
Ing month preceding these months.
and as the objects of all elections and
primaries should be to get the fullest
ana freest expression of the whole peo-
pie at the ballot box, it looks to us as
II all good argument would favor a pr1-
mary as late in the summer as possible.
Those who are to vote for candidates
for any office should be enabled to post
themselves as to the records and char
acter of the respective candidates, and
IL there are candidates who favor an
early primary to prevent this. those
candidates should not be consulted in
the matter.
In justice to all the candidates. and
IN Justice to the voters of the state. as
well as matter of right, the state
primary should be called not earlier
than July, and even later than this if
possible.

COL. EsTILL's CAMPAIGN.

Atlanta Journal: There is considera-
BILE talk in Atlanta regarding Col Es-
tilrs campaign. Although the Colonel
has little to say his friends are doing
great deal of talking for him. He
still continues his house to house can
vass in the different counties. and
when he goes back to Savannah he
writes long articles of the country he
has just visited, and mentions the
names of the people he has met Then
he sends out, it is said, sample copies
of those papers, and this sort of thing
iS bound to make votes. Col EstilI
is not much of a speaker He SAYS
so himself, and instead of speaking he
talks to each voter in person. He
doesn't say anything bad about the
other candidates, but always has some
thing good to say. He contends that
either Terrell or Query would make a
good man for Governor, but prefers to
have the office himself. and for that
reason he asks the people to vote
for him. ANY man who pursues this
style of campaigning cannot fail to
make votes for himself, and when the
time comes around for the ballots to
be counted Col. Estill is going to prove
a surprise.
James Smith of Oglethorpe, had just
as well be counted out of the race for
Governor this year for if he should
enter now there would be but little
hope for him. He has waited so long
that his chances of election have been
spoiled and his friends are advising
him. if he has any such idea, to keep
out OF the way. 1t has been said re-
Gently that Mr.. Smith was going to
announce after the committee fixed the
date for the primary, but little credit
is placed in the report, and the poll
tcians and others who are interested
IN the matter come out and say that
Mr.. Smith will not be a candidate for
Governor now
