MEETS IN TEN DAYS
TO FIX THE DATE.
State Committee to Discuss
Primary.
MUCH INTEREST is MANIFESTED
Committee Will Determine the Quail
Ificaticn OF Voters, Fix Date for
Primary for Nomination of Cover
nor and for State c convention.

All GeorA la is looking forward with
no small interess to the meeting of the
State Demo atic Executive Commit
tee, whose dnty 1t will be to name
the da'e for the state primary, fix the
qualifications of voters and issue call
for the state convention to nominate q
Governor. Congressmep, and State
House officers.
There are reasons why more interest
attaches to the meeting of The commit.
tee this year than has been the case IN
several years, chief among which is,
perhape, the probable action of the
committee with regard to the qualifica-
tons for voters.
Will the committee let down the bars
and permit ell Populists to vote in the
primary regardless of their intentions.
or will it pass even more severe restric-
tons than heretofore, and require q
pledge of loyalty to the party.
This is the question upon which there
is now much speculation. Of course,
the P0pulists all want to vote in this
primary, and many of them want to
vote without even being bound to abide
by the nominations, If they should not
go to suit them.
The matter, it appeare, is one which
the State committee will have to ham
de somewhat delicateIy, and Its action
along this line will be awaited with no
small interest.
The last Sta'e Convention passed q
resolution providing that the state
Democratic primary should not be held
this year prior to July 10. It must be
called between that date and Aug. 10.
It is generally believed the date to be
fixed will be between these two. July
10 and July 25 have both been
suggested.
The State Convention will probably
not be called until after the legislature
has adjourned, which will throw it
some time about the latter part of Au-
gust or the first of September.

COPING FOR CONFEDERATE LOT
Granite win Be laid Before Memo.
aiaI Day

The Ladies Memorial Society and
the local U. D. G. hope to have the
Confederate section of Gakgrove Gem
etery in perfect trim by memorial day.
Some time ago the ladies raised the
funds needed for the purchase OF a
granite coping wherewith to surround
the plat where the heroes sleep and
the granite slabs will arrive in day or
two. The city council came nobly to
the aid of the ladies and agreed to lay
the coping, and the only remaining
difficulty, therefore, was the transpor-
tation of the heavy material from the
freight depot to the cemetery. Mr.. ..
B. Harold, however. has generously
agreed to have the granite hauled out
and with all provisions thus made the
ladies' who have striven so faithfully to
that end, hope for the early fruition of
their labors.

JOHN MITCHELL RE-ELE0TED
Clash Between Him and Vice President
Lewis.

Indianapolis, Jan. 2S.-The convention
of the United Mine Workers Of America
to-day adopted the report of the scale
committee with practically no changes.
The discussion of the proposition to
endorse the plans of the anthracite min
ers caused a clash between President
Mitchell and Vice-President Lewis.
Considerable feeling was shown. Mr..
Lewis made the statement from the
floor that he thought full explanation
Of the anthracite situation should be
made by the president. He said he
knew nothing except what he read in
newspapers. President Mitchell replied
that he knew no law requiring presi-
dent to report to vice-president, and
added:
Il did not know till yesterday of the
success of the movement to secure a
conference with the anthracite opera
tors, and I do not know what demands
the anthracite miners committee will
make. The demands have not been
formulated"
Mr. Lewis replied that he thought he
was worthy to be taken into the conf
dence of the organization, when the
convention moved that the debate
cease.
The convention elected John p. White,
president of the Iowa miners, and T. d.
Nichols, of District No. l, Pennsylvania,
as delegates to the International Min
ing congress at London.
The report Of thS tellers showed the
election of the following: President,
John Mitchell; vice-president, 7. l..
Lewis; secretary treasurer, w. B. Will
son; delegates to the American FEEDER
alton of Labor, John Mitchell, I. l..
Lewis, w. B. Wilson, John Dempsey,
II. G. Perry and John .Fahey.
