FIELDS DEFEATSFsORRIS
DEKAER KILLS COUNTY UNION
FIGHT WAS MADE ALTOGETHER
ON THIS ISSUE.

Alonzo Fields, of Stone Mountain,
defeated S. A. Norris, of Decatur, for
the vacancy in the house of represent
atives from .DeKalb county, caused
by the resignation of Hon Murphy
Gambler, who was made a member Of
the state railroad commission. The
result of the election is to Kill the
scheme of the union of DeKalb and
Fulton counties, as the fight between
Morris and Fields was drawn c4arly
On this issue. Fields opposing the
merger and Morris favoring it.
With only McW1lliams, a small pse-
cinct, known to favor Fields, to hear
from, Fields is elected by a majority
of thirty-sevep votes, and Morris sup
porters concede his defeat by a ma
iority of fifty.
The fight was made altogether on
the county union issue. Several grand
juries had recommended the dissolu-
tion of DeKalb, and it had been de-
clared that the people of DeKalb ia
vored it Overwhelmingly, but the ver-
sict at the polls proved di5erent. 1t
was known that Fulton is not enthuSi-
astic over the proposition, but its sup
porters felt that a great majority for
union in DeKalb would do much to
bring the people of Fulton to favor
the scheme. The defeat, of course,
puts this out of the question.

gro miners who were brought to Jack
son, Breathitt county, to succeed white
miners in the coal mines there are
preparing to leave. This. decision fol-
lows an attack on their boarding
house in which the house was riddled
with bullets and one building partial
ly destroyed by dynamite. The ne

Price of Flour Scars Upward.

Atlanta.-The high price of flour is
now very serious question among
those who have to purchase food pro-
ducts, and that means everybody.
To show the tremendous and almost
staggering advance in the price of
-four it is only necessary to state that
in January of tt6s yaSS os1y four
months ago, flour in Atlanta was sell
ing at $500 a barrel, and now the
price is 7:6O, and the very lowest
price is $40, when bought in five
barrel lots. That means an increase
of 81 barrel, or little over So per
cent.
Flour has advanced in price in all
cities throughout the country, and in
Louisville, where there are some of
the biggest mills, the price is even
higher than it is in Atlanta.

the Intervention Of Martin \. Knapp,
chaif1lIan Of the interstate commerce
commission, ard Charles P. Neill,
United States commissioner OF labor.
