CANDIDATES NOT NUMEROUS
Provisions of Law Expected to Bring
Lot of Trouble for Election Officials,
but Make Little Difference in Results.
Election Officials to Be Named.

Officials of the city are being asked
to give the people some idea of the
workings of the second choice primary
election law. Many of the people who
are planning to be candidates for Of
flee at the coming city election are of
! the opinion that this law will cut big
figure in the selection of the candi-
dates to go on the ticket, but it is not
| thought that the law will have any
law only becomes effective where there
are more than two candidates or in
case of a tie between the two candi-
! dates for any office. The law provides
| first of all that the man getting a
majority Of the first choice votes shall
be nominated and in case no one gets
a majority the one having the smallest
number of first votes is dropped from
| further consideration and the second
choice votes voted by the friends of
this candidate are added to the first
choice votes of the other candidates
and this process Of elimination is kept
going until some one has a majority.
The law will cause a lot of trouble
for the officials who are in charge of
providing the ballots for the election
as the ballot must be prepared in such
a manner that it will give the voter q
chance to express his first and second
choice. This will make it necessary
| to place two columns after each can
didate for the nomination and the vot-
er will register his first choice by plac-
ing cross in the first column after
! the name of the candidate he desires to
vote for and his second choice \by plac
| ing a cross in the second column. 1t
will do no good to "plump'' votes as it
will be seen that the first and second
choice votes cast for the same candi-
date will be of no value to him 1t is
expected that the working of the new
law will greatly multiply the troubles
Of the men in charge of the primary
election and it is probable that should
there be considerable number of can
didates that the result of the primary
will not be announced until many hours
after the polls have been closed. The
election officials have not as yet been
appointed by the mayor and II is prob
able that he will recognize the demand
by naming men who will De able to I'M
derstand the new wrinkles of the pri-
mary law.
Under the law the various party
committees are forced to send to the
mayor list of men who are selected
by the party for election officials and
the mayor must make his nominations
of officials from the list. Two years
ago the mayor refused to follow the
law and named his officials at random
notwithstanding the fact that one OF
the party committees filed a list of
names from which he was supposed to
appoint.
1t is declared that this year the par
ty committees will insist that the
mayor follow the state law in naming
the officials even if members of the
committee are forced to go into court
and force the appointment of tho men
selected by the committee.

DURHAM COAL
, AND IRON co
Still Taking Options on
Lands and Continuing
Surveys.

The Durham Coal q Iron Company,
which is contemplating the purchase
of coal lands on headwaters of Little
Seuuachee river, is still continuing its
work of surveying. and large amounts
of lands are being OptiOned.
The work of the surveyors at first
was on Gray's Creek, tributary OF
Little Seuuachee river, where sur
vey for a railroad OIL rather motor road
was made. Another survey was
made in Peter Cave Fork, the
next cove to the north, also for road,
and third survey made to connect
with N, G. & St L. R'y at Coal
mont. The two former routes would
bring the coal via Sequachee, and the
latter via Tracy City and Cowan.
However, this last route is not practic
able on account of the high freight
rate on coal existing on the Tracy
Branch. The route via Sequachee
would be much cheaper as far as rate
is concerned, and by going to the rlv-
er Transportation by barge could be Sc
cured to Chattanooga, and coal could
be laid down there for a transportation
rate as low as SOC per ton, while the
other route would make it reach pos
sibly Al, 90. The company proposes to
build its own road which will be elec-
trio in character, the coal being hand
led by motors.
Onfions have been taken on the Ike
Layne lands, the lands of the Station
heirs, the Harrison lands, the Joe
Prigmore lands, and option on a tract
of land owned by Frank Simpson
which is surrounded by lands controll-
NF

lands comprise very large acreage

mount, where other lands Will be

of land on Walden's Ridge, having
purchased the holdings of a large
number of small coal cOmpanies, which
was the beginning of the Durham Coal
d. Iron Co These mines are all on
small seams of coal, so we understand,
and hence there is move on the part
of the company to reach bigger
coal" and they seem to have found it
on the headwaters of Little Sequachee.
Whether they will Immediately de-
velon it or not is a question. Howev-
er, no actual transfers have yet been
made, although a large amount of pre-
liminary work has been done, survey
ing, testing, drilling, looking mp titles
and taking options.
