Against Two Opponents.
There is a three-cornered race on
Tor the Office of sheriff of Dougherty
county. Felix G. Edwards, who is
the oldest sheriff in point of service
ii Georgia, having held his present
once for more than a third of a
century, is opposed by two well
known mem. E. Hall, railroad
man, and John D. Mcconnell, naval
stores operator. The primary has
Deen ordered for May 4th, and the
campaign promises to be one of great
interest. Sheriff Edwards has fought
many battles at the polls, but has
never yet tasted defeat. The pres
ent IS the first race in many years
IN which he has had two opponents.
There is also a three-cornered
race on for the tax receivership, j..
n Davis, the present incumbent, be-
ing opposed by Joseph w. Mckinney
ana X. A. Malone. The other county
oelicers, all of whom are candidates
.or reelection, are thus far unop-
posed.

RUSSELL FOR GOVERNOR ?
BROWN, SMITH AND HUDSON ARE
ALSO BEING DISCUSSED.
Everybody Is Mum, But Plenty of
Political Dope Is Being Dished
Out From Atlanta.


ATLANTA, Ga.-What are the
representations in gubernatorial pol
itics? Who's going to run for gov
ernor? Throughout Georgia this
question is the paramount query of
the hour. No one knows-yet. No
one is positive. No one is sure.
But there are many who think very
definitely, and as they seem to be in
close touch with the situation their
thought is worthy of weighing. They
say that the present incumbent,
Governor Brown, will beyond any
doubt run to succeed himself. Gov
ernor Brown has not said so. Half
of them say Governor Smith will run,
and the other half say not. Govern
or Smith has said nothing. 1t is
known that he don't want to run,
and that he feels that he has borne
the brunt of his factional views long
enough, and that he don't enthuse
over the idea of continuing as the
target for all the darts that are
hurled by the opposition. 1t is
known that he feels lively interest
in politics, and wants to help.
Whether his friends in that faction
can prevail upon him to help to the
extent of running is an open ques-
ton.
Hudson to Run?
The prognosticators aforesaid are
further quoted as saying that ire
mendous pressure is being brought
upon t. G. Hudson, the present COM
missioner of agriculture, to bring
him into the race as a reconciliation
or middle-Of-the-road candidate. Mr..
Hudson, like Governor Brown and
Mr.. Smith, won't talk, but it is
known that the rumors of the pres
sure are correct, and that there is
ample prophecy that he would win
Still another candidate who is ru-
mored is Judge R. B. Russell of the
Court of Appeals. But neither has
Judge Russell said a word His as
sociates on the court even go so far
as to say, in comment, that they
don't believe he would run.
PrOhiS. Want Fife?
Parties from the Gainesville dis
trict say sentiment is strong in that
section for Judge A. w. Fite as can
didate for governor on the prohi-
bition platform. Friends of Judge
Fite have already signified their in
tention of putting him in the race if
he can be prevailed upon to run.
Judge Fite became prominent
some months ago in a clash with the
federal court of Atlanta, in connec-
ton with the raids of the Cureton dis
tilleries and the arrest of the gov
eminent storekeepers in Dade county.
Comptroller-Gener William A.
Wright, the dean of statehouse Off
Gals, is rumored as a probable can
didate, and the general himself has
confirmed this to the extent of say
ing that if both sides want him he'll
enter the race. But he smiles enig-
matically when protest is made that
both sides won't enthusiastically
agree on anybody, and his smile is
taken as a meaning that he knew all
that to begin with, and that if he
hadn't known it he wouldn't have
said what he did
Those are the rumors. The next
few weeks ought to develop them
into either facts or fairy tales.
