 Atlanta, August 27.-tSpecialo-.in. terest in the state convention, which meets in Macon tomorrow, Is compar- able to that in the recent state pfl- mary. It was generally known how the primary was coming out with one or two exceptions; it is equally appar- ent what the state convention is going to do.
 In fact, the convention is fraught with fewer doubts than was the prl- mary. for with three notable excep- tions everything has been settled The overwhelming nomination of John M. Slaton as governor, the framing Of a platform generally in accordance with his views and wishes and the nomination of statehouse officers in po- sitions that are uncontested are mere ly perfunctory matters.
 Interest attaches to what the con yention will do in the matters of judge of the court of appeals, commissioner of agriculture and judge of the Cher okee circuit.
