count for $4,000 votes. It makes
no difference whether this be an
old or new subscription. 1t will
count just the same. These votes

COUNTY UNIT PLAN MAY BE
ADoPTED-SOME ACTION
AGAINST BOILERS.

Atlanta, Oct. 23.-Although there
is number of interesting questions
to be decided by the state democratic
executive committee when it meets
at noon next Thursday in the senate
chamber of the capitol, there has so
far been but little discussion of these
matters and so far as can be discov-
cred the majority of the committee
men have as yet formed no definite
opinions.
Il have heard no opinions expressed
on the various questions that may
come up said Reuben R. Arnold, "a
member of the committee, yesterday.
i suppose the members will gather
in the city day or so before the
meeting and talk things over. | am
of the opinion, however, that the com
mittee will content itself with fixing
the date and rules for the primary
and let any other matters go over
until a later period
The prime object of the meeting. of
course, is to fix the primary

this and Mr.. Arnold thought the sug-

proved by the committee.
THE law" said Mr.. Arnold, Estates
that the election shall be held not
sooner than thirty and not later than
sixty days after the resignation of
the governor. AS Governor Smith has
signified his intention of resigning on
November Is, this would place the
earliest date for the election on De-
cember Is. 1t would be well to hold
the primary about ten days before
this, which would bring it on Decem-
Der 5, as suggested"
Among the rules to be decided upon
is the question as to whether the
county unit plan or the plurality plan
shall govern. Mr. Arnold thinks that
the committee will choose the county
unit plan.
The advisability of debarring from
the primary voters who at previous
elections have bolted the democratic
ticket has come up at various times,
and it is not improbable that action
on the matter may be taken by the
