Especial to THE TINES

Indianapolis, Ind, Dec. 81. The
decision of Burt New of North Yer
non to drop his contest for the office
of reporter of the supreme court. which
was announced Saturday. has caused
stir in the democratic camp, and
good many democrats are unable to
understand just why he decided to take
such step. New places his
decision on the ground that he
feels that the office, even if he
should win, would not be worth the
time, trouble and expense of the fight
he would have to make to get it. And
this is no doubt his real reason, but
the democrats here are pointing out
that on the official returns New was
defeated by George w. Self, republican,
by only III votes in the entire state.
Since the election they say corrected
returns have been received that would
easily wipe out that small plurality,
and yet New has pulled out of the
fight.
others Say They'll Fight.
James F. Cox of Columbus, who was
defeated for secretary of state; Marion
Bailey of Lizton. defeated for auditor
of state, and P. ]. Kelleher of this city,
defeated for state statistician, were all
showed under by pluralities much
larger than that against New. and yet
they say they will reamin in the fight
and will make the contest to gain the
offices. OF course, the salary of the
reporter of the supreme court is not
as large as that of either the secre-
tary or the auditor, and this would
make the contest less. attractive to
New.
There is a pretty general belief, how
ever that the withdrawal of New means
the beginning of the end of the con-
test and that the other defeated demo-
cratic candidates for state officials will
soon follow his lead in pulling out.
This, however. may not be the correct
dope and time only can tell
LuII I'm Senator Fight.
Ever since the meeting of the demo-
cratic legislators in this city a week
ago there has been a 1ull in the fight
for United States senator. If any new
moves have been made they have been
under cover where they could not be
observed.
1t is at least certain that nothing
has transpired that changes the aspect
of things since that time. Shively came
out of that conference stronger than
ever, and there are more democrat is
now than ever before who look upon
him as one of the leading candidates
1t is even said that in the event thai
Kern is not elected on the first three
or four ballots some of his strength
will drift away and go to Shively. II
such a thing were to start it would
probably mean the defeat of Kern.
There is one thing certain about al
this talk, and that is that some of this
! legislators who will vote. for Kerr
would much prefer to vote for some
other candidate If they dared to do so
But their hands are tied. In many o.
the counties the democratic county
committees or democratic clubs have
adopted resolutions favoring Kern''

of Waycross are devoting much
time to the proposed extension OF
the Atlanta, Birmingham and At

event this is realized, run from
Atlanta and Birmingham thru
Waycross to Jacksonville.
In this ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS has
the hearty cooperation of Jack
sonville, and a big meeting will be
held some time shortly in that
city in the interest of this move
ment. V. L. Stanton, who ven
tured the suggestion at the ban
quent in Atlanta, will head a dele
CATION from Waycross to the Jack
sonville meeting, and it is not un-
likely that the City Council and
Board of Trade will have delega-
cations present.
The officials of the Atlanta, Bir-
mingham and Atlantic will be com
municated with as soon as some
thing definite can be settled be-
tween jacksonville and Waycross.
The two propositions will doubt
less be carried to the officials by q
joint committee, composed OF
members of the Boards of Trade
from the cities interested. The
questions of terminals, rightof-
way and other inducements will
then be approved and carried tc
the president, II M. Atkinson.
At a special meeting of the bust
