Both haen show the wear and tear of the cam paign through which they are passing There was a crowd of about 400 voters assembled. a majority of whom were fa- Forable to Mir. Lusk.
 Considerable feeling was shown by some members of the audience, as there had been threats by some ardent Burnett sup porters to the effect that Lusk would probably not be allowed to speak. But fairly good order prevailed, and the com bat waged warm. MT. Burnett opened, and charged MT. LUsk with being a bank Legislature was not free from errors; that he was not a friend of the common people; that his attitude was insincere, and further called Mir. Lusk a tax dodger. alleging that Mir. Lusk had a library val ued at $500 which escaped taxation, and saying that his buggy was taxed for only BIO, and that MT. Lusk did not patronIze the public schools of his county.

 The Transportation Committee of the Commercial and Industrial Association recently received complaints from Mont eomerv iobbers of delays to shipments of freight for Hartford and other points on the extension of the Central Railroad

 The Association took up the matter with Traffic Manager Winhurn of the Central Railroad at Savannah or, on M March sn he loaded out of Montgomery for all points on this division, so it would not have to break bulk twice in transit.

ot the late Chas. W. Thompson in the person of Dr. J. A. Goggans, of this city. He announces this week and his warm and loyal friends throughout the district will give him strong support They believe that he is specially fitted for service in the National Congress and vii; press his claims from now till the primary.
 'Dr. Goggans, who has attained to eminence in the ranks of his honored profession, and who Is a citizen Of great usefulness in the many walks of -4Ie, was born in Coosa County and spent his boyhood days in that county. He was educated at the Washington and Lee Uni versity, and later began the study of medicine in the Universities of Michi- gar and New York, and graduated at the latter institution in 1877; moved to Tal- lapoosa County in the same year and commenced the practice of medicine, in which he has been unusually successful.
The Montgomery advertiser., 1904-03-31

Dr. Goggans studied in the great medi- cal schools of Europe in later years and equipped himself for the position in the professional world he now holds.
 He has been honored by the leading medical societies of the country and has contributed frequently to the medical and surgical literature of the South.
 While pr. Goggans has always man ifested an active interest in the political welfare of the country he has never held office. He has contributed literally to the upholding of good government and is the friend and staunch supporter of wholesome legislation and a bitter foe to demagoguery and it's attendant shams.
 This section of the district has never elected a Representative to Congress, and the people will remember this fact in the coming primary, and other parts of the district will concede this fact and will help us.'
