TWO ALREADY IN FIELD WHILE
THIRD CANDIDATE Is SURE
TO ENTER.
-FOUR ALDERMEN TO Be NAMED
City Politics to Take on Lively
Turn Within Next Few Weeks.
Primary Will Not Occur un.il lat.
ter Part Of November.

Although the primary is yet about
four months OFF, city politics are be
ginning to loom up, and, with two
candidates already in the field for
mayor and with four aldermen to be
named, the primary this year from
ises to be one of the most interesting
held in recent years.
Alderman J. H. Leo of the Fourth
ward, and Alderman J. Hunter Hop
kins of the First ward, announced
some time ago that they were IN the
race to succeed Mayor Butts, who
will not offer for reelection, AMI 'hese
two aldermen have been busy for
many weeks in the interest of their
candidacy.
But there is to be third candi-
date, and, while it is not known yet
exactly who it will be, there is no
doubt as to his entrance. A number
of names have already been mention :
ed in connection with the place an1
several we'll known business men
have been urged to get into the race,
but thus far they have refused. How
ever, it is practically certain that
there will be another entry before the
primary and the campaign will he one
of the most interesting and exciting
that Brunswick has witness ed in
some time. swsNq
Four Aldermen are also to be elect.
ed at the primary, and, as two Of the
present incumbents are Offering fol-
mayor, at least two new members oi
council are to be named. The 'der
men whose terms expire at the end
Of the present years are: First ward
]: H. Hopkins; second ward NJ. p
McKinnon; third ward, c. T. Gilman
fourth ward, ]. H. Leo With both
Messrs. Leo and Hopkins in the race
for mayor, two new aldermen from
their wards will be elected Whether
or not the two other aldermen whose
terms expire will offer for reel ?ction
is not yet known.
At any rate, it appears that Pruns
wick will have her full share OF citv
politics this year and a real spirite
campaign is expected.

FIELDER AND BURNS WERE
ON THE WITNESS STAND
SOUTH CAROLINA DIsPENsARY
INVESTIGATING COMMISSION
AT AUGUSTA, GA.

Augusta, July 12.-The dispensary
investigating committee of the South
Carolina legislature met here at 1850
o'clock this morning to hear the
evidence of Thomas B. Fielder of At
lanta, who was attorney for the
'winding-up board" of the OLD dis
pensary in the state, and adjourned
five minutes later until IL o'clock at
the request of Mr.. Fielder, who stated
that he expected w. J. Burns Of the
Burns National Detective Agency, to
be here from the North at 1850
The announcement that the famous
detective who exposed the Mcnamara
brothers was to come to Augusta and
testify produced a sensation in the
crowded city courtroom at the Rich
mond county courthouse. Mr.. Fielder
intimated that the testimony of Burns
would be of highly sensational char
acter, and stated that while he re-
gretted to ask the adjournment, still
the testimony which Mr.. Burns would
give would be ample justification for
the request.
There were several hundred people
in the courtroom this morning by IN
o'clock, when the hearing was sched-
uled to begin. Some of the leading
politicians of South Carolina were on
hand, and the most intense interest
was shown in the testimony to be fur
nished because of Mr.. Felder's state
ment to the effect that a tremendous
sensation would probably be devel-
oped
Mr.. Fielder has had some ver- harj
things to say o: Governor Blease, and
with the promise of revealing other
and more sensational evidence in tn =
famous dispensary case, the audience
was on the tiptoe of expectancy. This
was before the announcement that
Burns was coming. When this an
nouncement was made there was great
speculation as to just what the fam
Gus detective would disclose.

LOCALS TAKE SECOND GAME
FROM THE SOLDIER TEAM

The Pilots were again victorious
against the Fort Screven team yes
terday afternoon, and for the second
time the visitors were shut out, the
final score being to 0.
Tuggle, for the locals, and Moore
for the visitors, both pitched good
ball, with Tuggle getting the better
of it. He let the soldiers down wit l
only two hits, while the locals sue
ceeded in securing five off the deliv-
cry of Moore. Tuggle also struck out
eight of the visiting batters, and in
only one inning during the game was
he in hole, when he pulled out by
assisting in fast double play.
The visitors, however, played faster
and better ball than they did on
Thursday and only two errors were
'chalked up against them, one of
which resulted in one of the locals
runs,
The last game of the series will be
played this afternoon and it promises
to be the most interesting of the
three The star soldier twirler, who
has been umpiring during the past
two days, will be in the box for his
club and he will be opposed by Wig
gins, the locals star pitcher.
Much credit is due the local
team for their work during the past
three games they have played. For
twenty-seven innings they have not
been scored against, which is good
record for any club. They shat tho
Savannah team out on last SATURDAY.
while Fort Screven has faileI to
score during the past two games.
The attendance yesterday was net
what it should have been. Those
who are in charge of the local club
are endeavoring to give the rams
good baseball during the season, but
in order to dc so the attendance will
nave to be larger. It is hoped that
the grandstand will be filled its
capacity this afternoon.

Headquarters of Orozco.
Juarez, July 12.-1nformation from
rebel sources today is that the fede-
raj troops drove the insurrect> yes
terday from SauZ, thirty miles north
of the city of Chihuahua on the Mex
lean Central, and only a few DAYS ago
the headquarters of General Orozco.
The force of rebels at Sauz retired in
the face of the more numerous gov
ernment cavalry. A few shots were
fired. Skirmishes are expected con-
tinually, as the federals move north
ward. Fewer than one thousand
rebels are scattered along the Mexi-
Can Central over the nineteen miles
from SauZ to JaureZ, and today there
are hardly 500 men in Juarez.
Though General Orozco will return
south tomorrow over the Mexican
Ger trail to about Gallego, 141 miles
20 the south of here, no campaign is
likely along that route, the rebel in
t'' ton being merely to keep General
Hdert&'s forces divided while the

lie along the Mexican Northwestern

Was Serving Self.

Roosevelt had as great an oppor-
tUnlty to serve the progressive cause
at chicago as Bryan had at Baltimore
but Roosevelt was serving the man
a4IG not the cause. He wanted one
thin9-he wanted the nomination. And
yet he did not have enough votes to
nominate himself upon any honest ba-
Sis. He did not have enough dele
gates in that convention ultimately to
have nominated real progressive
and adopt strong progressive plat
form. He could have even nominated
Hadley on such platform and pro-
gressiye republicans could have sup
ported Hadley in much the same same
spirit as hundreds of thousands of
men will now support Wilson.
But Roosevelt would not consider
Hadley. He would have no one but
himself. At the first suggestion of
Hadley he ordered the third party
maneuyers lest he lose his follow
ers.
An analysis of the testimony will,
am convinced, show that neither
Taft nor Roosevelt had a majority of
honestly or regularly elected dele
gates. Each candidate was trying to
seat a sufficient number of fraudu-
lently credentialed delegates to Sc
cure control of the convention and
steam roll the nomination.
The Brunswick news. [volume] (Brunswick, Ga.) 1906-2016, 1912-07-13
Took Only Course.

4 This explains the extraordinary
co1duct of Roosevelt. He could not
enter upon such an analysis of the
evidence as would prove Taft's reg
ularly elected delegates in the min
ority without inevitably subiecting his
own spuriously credentialed delegates
so critical that. would expose the fall
sity of his own contention that he
had an honestly elected majority. He
therefore deliberately chose 10 claim
everything, to cry fraud.
"Mr. Roosevelt was not governed
by a suggestion Of that spirit OF
high patriotic and unselfish purpose
of which Bryan furnished such mag
nifcent example one week late" in
the democratic convention at Balt!-
more. Instead. he filled the public
ear with sound and fury. He ruth
lessly sacrificed everything to the one
idea of his being the one candidate" "

Two Hundred Fake Contests.

Roosevelt, at Chicago, backed by
money, derived from the stock water
ing operations of the steel trust and
the harvester trust, organizing what
are now confessed to have been fake
contests as to nearly two h&ndred
delegates, in order to control the re-
publican convention and secure his
own nomination, refusing to aid in
making progressive platform, bound
to have the nomination or destroy the
republican party, was a most striking
example of misdirected power and un-
worthy ambition.

Washington, July 12.-Under the

ten an editorial in the current number
of LaFollette's Weekly, which says,
in part:
Bryan at Baltimore, foregoing all
chance of his own nomination, brav.
ing Tammany and the trusts to res
cue his party from their domination,
carrying the convention for the adop-
ton of the most progressive demo-
cratic platform yet offered, and the
nomination of the most progressive
democratic candidate available, was
a towering figure of moral power and
patriotic devotion to civic righteous,
ness.

States and that of our total pOpula-
ton at least 100000 are either Ger
man born or are descendants of Ger
man emigrants, it will readily be con-
ceded that this vast number of Ger
man born, German speaking and Ger
man feeling people have exerted a
powerful influence upon American
life, American law, American customs
and American thought, and that to a
certain extent, they have Germanized
America. That is to say, they have
left the impress of Germany upon
America.
1t is but right and proper that we
here and now express our condemna-
ton of all such who fail to see the
manliness and character of the foreig-
ner but observe and criticise only his
weaknesses and foibles. No one
pretends that the German character
is perfect, nor that Germany stands
prominently historically above other
nations, yet it should be remember
ed that the art of printing, the manu-
facture of gunpowder, the clock, the

in wood and metal, earthenware, glass,
