the candidacy of Joseph F. Johnston for
Governor. His appointment here had not
been advertised very extensively and not
many country people were in the city.
The crowd was mixed as to the adherents
of Jelks and Johnston and the Johnston
people gave him frequent applause. The
nearer the election comes the sharper the
fight is waging between the local candi-
dates, and the more is being discussed the
chances of the candidates for Governor,
Both sides are claiming the county. Hon.
Massey Wilson is in the city today and
made a short talk to the people in the
interest of his candidacy for Attorney
General
