FOUR ANNOUNCE
FOR MAYORALTY
IN WAYCROSS
Twice This Number Expected to
Enter Before EIection-Near-
Beer to Figure in Campaign.

WAYCROSS, Sept. 2O.-with the
city primary nearly 80 days off, poll
tics in Waycross is well past the boil
ing point now, and while quite a
number of candidates have announced
II is generally conceded that not half
of those who will be on the ticket
have entered the race.
This being the year TO elect a
Mayor, considerable interest is at
tached to the primary. The incumbent
is not a candidate for reelection and
it is extremely doubtful if Mayor
Reed will get into the race at later
time. His place is being sought by
Scott T. Beaton, Alderman from the
Fourth Ward; DR.. II. A. Cannon,
former City Clerk ]. W. Strickland
and r. B. Ballard. one or more can
didates for Mayor are expected in the
field early in October, and speculation
is growing keen as to who the new
entries will be.
AIdermanic Candidates.
The second and Fourth Wards are
the only ones so far with candidates.
The Fourth Ward seat on the Alder
manic Board is sought by Dr. ]. L.
Walker, who was for some time con-
sidered as one of the likely candi-
dates for Mayor; w. w. Sharpe. Jr..
and the Rev. ]. C. Humphreys. The
Second has only one candidate TO
date, DIR. J. II. Lattimer Alderman
II. Hengeveld will probably offer for
reelection, but he has not announced.
In the Sixth 1t is probable that Nc
Gregor Mayo will be elected to sue
coed Alderman c. A. LeCount, who
will not be a candidate for re- election
This is an off year for the First, Third
and Fifth Wards.
No issues have been developed so
far in the mayoralty contest, but later
on it is believed the race will grow
warm. In fact, voters anticipate one
of the warmest primaries the city has
known in years. The chances for the
near-beer proposition to figure in the
primary are still regarded as rather
strong.
Registration Books Closed.
To-day the registration books for
the charter election. which will be
held October 4. closed. Only those
who had not registered for the last
city election had to register and of
the number qualifying it is believed
majority are opposed to making any
changes in the form of city govern
ment at this time. The election will
be held to decide whether to have a
city manager or an increased Board
of Aldermen, serving without pay
| and the Mayor to receive double his
present salary or $1,000. A civil serv-
ice commission is also proposed and
heads of the five departments created
by the new charter are to be appoint
ed by the Mayor.

as contemplated has long been con-
sidered a military necessity.
