COUNTY POLITICS.


From the present appearance Of the
advertising columns of THE ENQUIRER.
1t Is quite evident that there are to be
no serious restrictions as to choice for
the various county offices.
Except aS to representatives In the
general assembly, the outlook is that
there will be candidates enough to suit
even the most discriminating, and per-
haps before the bars are put up there
will be fuller field here also.
Mr.. Brice is today announced for the
senate. This is as his friends have all
along expected and as they intended.
In fact they would not have 1t other
wise. There was talk some months
ago of other probable candidates for
this office; but so far as the reporter
has information, the situation has re-
solved itself down to Mr.. Brice who
will very likely run without opposition.
The lists, however, are still open.
So far, Messrs. ]. w. Ardrey and F.
P. Mccain are the only announced can
didates for the house of representa-
tives. That Mr.. Beamguard will be a
candidate for reelection Is pretty
well settled, and the friends Of DR.. ].
H. Saye and Mr.. w. s. Wilkerson are
doing all they can to persuade those
gentlemen to allow the use Of their
names. There has been talk Of other
prospective candidates, but no definite
developments up to this time.
The race for clerk Of the court Is
growing warmer perhaps than that for
any other Office. It has been on long
er. Messrs. Wylie, Tate and Logan
have virtually been candidates for four
years or more and Mr.. Wilborn has,
to all intents and purposes, been in the
field for nearly two years. More or
less partisanship. has long since devel-
oped in this race, and there is much
speculation as to Its probable outcome.
The sheriffs race looks like free
for all, 90 as you please. The entries
up to this time are Messrs. John F.
Gordon, S. s. Plexico, r. B. Lowry. B.
F. Caldwell and II. G. Brown, with at
least four others carefully considering
whether or not they will also be in the
race. That there will be one or two
more entries seems practically certain.
The contest for treasurer promises
to be a three cornered affair at least,
and may have four corners to it. The
entries Of which we have definite in
formation, however. only Include Mr..
H. A. D. Nicely. the present incumbent,
and Mr.. j. R. Halle, who has decided
to stand for this Office rather than for
the general assembly. This race has
not yet begun to attract especial in
terest.
The contest for county auditor Is
still between Messrs. w. B. Williams,
the incumbent, and John ]. Hunter.
The interest in this race is about the
same as that for treasurer.
Messrs. T. w. Boyd, r. M. White
sides and S. N. Johnson are the an
nounced candidates for supervisor, and
it has been said that there are others
who have under consideration the idea
Of running for this important office,
and several names have been suggest
ed in connection with the position of
county commissioner, for which no
announcements have yet been made.
The entry Of Mr.. F. E. Clinton today
brings a contest for coroner with Mr..
L. w. Louthian, and the campaign is
still young enough to leave proba-
bility Of other entries.
