MUDDY WATER CHOKED
THESE FISH TO DEATH

Atlanta, April 5.-Following floods
and high water above this place the
fish in a chain of fifteen or sixteen
small lakes which are fed from South
river began to die, and this morning
hundreds of them we're observed float
ing on the top of the water.
The affair was reported to the local
came wardens and they were inclined
at first to think that somebody had
been dynamiting or poisoning the fish
But investigation developed that there
had been no dynamiting, and an analy-
sis of the water showed there had been
no poison.
Fishing experts we're called on, but
could give no explanation. Then c. E
Fogg and a companion named Logo
marsino caught half dozen of the
dead fish and made an "unscientific'
but thorough investigation of their
"1nnards."
When they had finished they an
nounced that the fish had been choke
to death by the mud. Their hearer
first lauged at the theory. but the fisl
were subsequently taken to the capita
and their diagnosis was proven cor
rect.
The food water had carried with
in some places such a volume of re
mud that 1t had literally made the W;
ter impossible for the fishes to breath

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE WILL
DETERMINE FATE OF PRIMARY
Meeting Called For II O'Clock This Morning at the County
COnrt House Here Primary ShOnId Be Held

Upon the action taken by the Sum-
ter county democratic executive com.
mittee, which is to meet here at the
county courthouse this morning at Ii
O'Clock, will doubtless depend the
fate of a presidential primary, as
that is the principal purpose for whit h
the meeting was called
At present there are no provisions
for the holding of a primary in Sum
ter for the purpose of selecting a
nominee on the democratic ticket for
the presidency. Most counties solved
the matter by holding this special
primary, which is distinct innova-
ton, in conjunction with the regular
county primary. But in Sumter the
county primary had already been
called before the presidential primary
was announced by the state executive
committee, so that no provisions for n
primary have been made.
Under the conditions existing here
it is necessary for a separate prima.
ry to be held. 1t is for the purpose Of
arranging some manner in which ths
expenses of this primary may be met
that the committee Is to assemble to-
day and enter into a business session.
1t is said that the need of the pro-
viding for primary is imperative, as
the state convention will not recog-
nize delegates that are not chosen In
this manner. If this be true, there.
would seem to be no way for Stunt sr
county to be represented except by
for primary.
The expenses of the primary are
considerable, however, it is said, ami
1t has been estimated that this cost
will probably run as high as $3.50. lf
this be true, the executive committee
must provide some manner for the
raising of the funds needed to coli
duct the primary A voluntary sub
scription arrangement has been sug-
gested as one method of avoiding this
difficulty Whether this will be done
or not depends upon the committee,
whose duty it is to dispense with the
primary or to make some provisions
for the conduct of it,
