WORK OF GEORGIA DEMOCRATS

Wonder what John Temple Graves
thinks about the overwhelming ma
1ority his old party gave to the
democratic nominee last week over
the candidate Of his newly-organized
party. He must think that something
broke loose" down this way.
1t was merely a good. sound lesson
10 freak candidate. The majority
was the largest ever given a demo-
cratic nominee. IN fact the major
ity was larger than the vote generally
pclled at state election.
The cause for this big vote is easy.
Georgia democrats in past years have
not deemed it necessary to go to the
polls and vote. especially when there
was no opposition to the ticket. but
this year the opposition made SO much
noi@e. there was SO much talk about
Georgia going republican in Noyem-
Der that democrats OF the state sim
ply deemed it necessary to go to the
polls and show the world that there
was nothing in these erroneous re-
ports; they wanted 10 smother the
Hearst Graves Carter combination so
far down under the avalanche OF votes
that they would never show up in
Georgia again; they wanted to show
bryan and the other leading demo-
Gratis of ether states that Georgia was
still one of the leading democratic
states Of the union, and they did so
with a majority of one hundred thou
sand votes.
In the face of such a crushing de
feat it is not expected that the in
league win be heard from
again in Georgia very soon

ASSIST IN T1E WORK.

The local chapter Of the Daughters
of the American Revolution have
started out to accomplish a good piece
Of work for nswick. and they de
serve the assistance and co-opera-
ton of every person interested in
their city.
1t is the plan of the chapter to
beauty Brunswick, to make the, city
attractive to visitors, to have them
leave the city and tell their. friends
what a pretty little city we have 1t
sounds awfully good to a Brunswick
person to be in some other city and
hear compliments about his home,
about the pretty way in which the
city is kept. These little remarks by
a visitor count for more than the or
binary person thinks.
Pretty soon the winter tourists will
be with us; many of them are expect
ed to spend the winter in this city,
and before they arrive we should
make number OF civic improvements
If each property owner will assist the
D. A. r. in their work Brunswick will
be made a city beautiful.
The various parks and squares in
the city should be beautifed, the
streets should all be placed in excel
lent condition, every person who owns
Il house should take pride enough in
his home tc make it pretty and attrac-
tive.
THIS is the season when work along
civic improN ement lines should be
done; Il is nearly time for the influx
of northern visitors, and nothing inn
presses them more than pretty and
attractive city The d. A. r.. are gcing
to use every effort to make Brunswick
beautiful and it is hoped that tAcy
viii aave the cooperation of the poo
pie generally.

Railroad Notes,

Reports from the south show that
many telegraph offices were closed on
March 4, when the new law went into
effect. This was especially true in
Oklahoma.
Spring floods along the Platte river
have been avoided, say railroad men,
by the failure of the ice crop and the
gradual breaking up of the river.
Little trouble along the Platte river
is looked for this spring.
Railroad passenger men say that
the railroad homeseekers' rates bust
ness is as great now as it was last
year when the rates were five dollars
lower than now. Then the maximum
rate was $3.50 and now it is $3.50.
Vice President Willard of the Bur-
lington will pass through Lincoln this
morning at about $3.50 on his way to
the northwest. He will be accompa-
MED by the officials of the lines west
on his trip. 1t is understood that he
VIII return east sometime next week.
Freight business on the Burlington
picked up with the coming of March,
and it is now said to be much better
than during the last two weeks in
February. Farmers are marketing
their grain, the prospect for a new
crop OF winter wheat encouraging
them to part with their holdings.

ton to the building of an auditorium
in West Point crystallized in the hold
ing of a mass meeting of the citizens
who assembled to consider the project
and to devise ways and means for the
accomplishment of this much needed
public improvement. The meeting
was well attended and very enthusi-
astic. Addresses were made by a
number of local capitalists and after
a full discussion of the matter a com
mittee of nine was appointed to can,
vass the city for subscriptions to a
stock company, with a capitalization
of $4,000 in shares Of $40 to erect an
auditorium in West Point, the com,
mittee to report progress in fourteen
days. No doubt exists in the mind of
any one of the full amount OF the
required capital being subscribed at
once.
